NURSES 10 COMMANDMENTS 1. Thou shalt have very few interests before thee. 2. Thou shalt not make for thyself any fancy curls about thy face or below thy neckline, for the staff shall not hold her guiltless who weareth curls on duty. 3. Thou shalt not have thought of any interne in thy mind, especially while thou art on duty. 4. Remember the Sabbath Day; six days shalt thou labor and on the seventh thou shalt clean cupboards. 5. Thou shalt not kill, but need not strive officially to keep thyself alive. 6. Thou shalt not sample the patient’s food that is in the icebox. 7. Thou shalt not linger on the doorstep after 10 p.m. 8. Thou shalt not bear excuses to the Superintendent’s office. 9. Thou shalt not covet thy patient’s sleep, but just try and get enough for thyself! 10. Thou shalt honor these rules or thy training days shall not be long before thee. © © © © TO THE GRADUATES Congratulation, Graduates. It is with mixed feelings that we, the Proba¬ tioners, bid farewell to you, our friends, and we all wish you much success in the future. We confess a slight feeling of envy when we realize that you have now completed your course of training, and are entering into your career of service. We wish to say, “Thanks,” for the consideration shown.us, and the help given at the beginning of our work. Here we would also like to express our appreciation to Sr. Trottier, Miss Spice and Miss Craig for conveying their advice and knowledge, which, to us, is so necessary. You Graduates will be a great credit to our School and we hope that when our time comes we may be able to find it in us to be as kindly to our Juniors as you have been and keep up the high standard of the School. Good-bye, good luck and Godspeed. THE PROBATIONERS. 30
