Editorial T HIS, our graduation day, is always one for much thought —an “in between” spot in our lives from which we look back at what has been done, and forward with ambitious hopes for greater accomplishments. Our past and future hold much in common with those of other graduates. We all recall the birth and gradual growth of our desire to become nurses. Perhaps a chapter in history, or a well writ¬ ten book opened our eyes to the beauties of our profession or perhaps the words and example of others inspired us. The intervening years have filled their storehouses with the harvest of our work, our heartaches, our joys. Many we’ve helped with a word, a look, or a task well done; many we’ve hurt through our ignorance, our over anxiety, our inexperience. This past and this future we share with those who have travelled before, and with those who will follow us. But for us, these realities have been colored with a special dye for our years of training have been steeped in a con¬ sciousness of a world afflicted by the greatest sufferings ever known, and our years as graduate nurses will begin with the dawn of victory and the tremendous task of nursing human¬ ity back to health. We are grateful to all those who have helped us during the past three years. To the sisters, the doctors, the graduate nurses, and our many friends we extend our heartfelt thanks. A “thank you” also to the co-creators of this book.

The STUDENT COUNCIL ’ taHE success and happiness of any Student Council depends on its ability to work well together and to function in harmony with the students who have placed their confidence in them. This year the fine cooperation shown by the members of the Council in every undertaking and the spirit of fellowship prevailing throughout the residence has been outstanding. It is for this reason we can proudly say that in time the Student Council will exert a great influence in promoting the happiness and welfare of the student nurses of St. Boniface Hospital. Our aim this year has been to further the opportunities that now exist in our school and to build up a Council that will provide a closer bond between the student and those responsible for her welfare. With this in mind we have drawn up a Constitution which will begin new annals of St. Boniface Hospital Nursing School. The cooperation given us by our fellow students has been encouraging and the available advice and guidance by Sister Brodeur has been greatly appreciated. It is with regret that we say good-bye but we will remain “Forever Faithful”. b. McDonald. B. PARRISH, 11
