Class Prophecy SCRAPBOOK MEMORIES This afternoon I was feeling rather lonely, so I looked through my scrap- book renewing old acquaintances. 1Ve were graduated from the Robert Packer Hospital in 1943. Those were war days-our motto was Vision, Vigor, Victory? I must have been rather doubtful over our possession of those traits which would bring suc- cess, for 011 the first page I have printed: VISION ? VIGOR? VICTORX'? The following pages are filled with clippings and letters. This was the first to meet my eye: 'tEndicott. N. Y., March 6. 1947.- Miss Geraldine Butler left today for Rio de Janeiro where she-has accepted a position in the Standard Oil Hos- pital.

Miss Fuller, a gradu- ate of the Robert Packer Hospital Training School for Nurses, receiv- ed her degree from the University of Pennsylvania. Another item from Bradford Coun- tv : The great success of tl1e Ortho- pedic Clinics in this region is due in part to the untiring work of Miss Grace Spencer. who has been direct- ing the work for the past five years. On the next page I have two letters. One from .Iune Young. HDear Mildred, Did l ever hint that I didn't like nursing? If I did, I was wrong, for I am very happy at my post as an in- dustrial nurse in the Glass 1Vorks. I really feel at home for five of my family work here. The other one is from Tirpie: t'Dear Mildred, ' I had to write and tell you the latest things about Monica. I still think she is a prize baby. Richie, Jr., is growing every day. He looks like his father. VVe are still living with my mother. I saw Jennie today.
