4 4f)e5iage to the 1948 Cj raduatincj (die G r La55 a RADUATION—Commencement—-two words of great significance to you which have the power to arouse mingled emotions of sadness, joy and hope. It has been said that there are two mental sports in which the human mind finds great pleasure, they are: looking backward and looking forward. There is no better day to indulge in this favorite pastime than on your graduation day when your mind is filled with memories of what has been and visions of what is to be. You have reached the bend of the road. Your gradu¬ ation terminates a period of time given over to the acquisition of knowledge and skills necessary to qualify you as professional nurses. You have had to put forth exacting and persevering effort for the last three years and have frequently sacrificed some of the freedom which youth craves. I think you will agree with me, however, at least in your moments of peaceful meditation, that nothing else could have given you greater satisfaction than the privileges and opportunities which your Alma Mater has made possible for you. And now, you have completed your course. I congratulate you on your success in achieving this goal and also on your choice of nursing as your life work. We who have watched you develop to professional maturity have confidence in your future. May you always be true to the picture of the Ideal Nurse sketched for us by Dr. Herbert L. Northrop: “She has the noble brow of an idealist, with the vitality to make her dreams come true; her body is strong and pliable with a capacity for work; she radiates health; she is comprehensive; understanding and generous in her sympathies; she sees life as it is—has few illusions but is not pessimistic; she knows the difficult road she has chosen and does not complain of its hardships; she is practical, efficient and trustworthy, her lips smile with the fervor of ambition and her eyes glow with the vision of service. She stands in our midst brave, vivid, dynamic—her ideali¬ zation warming the heart of humanity like a steady flame.” May you be such a nurse and “in the dark pathways of life you will be the light.” SR. DELIA CLERMONT, Supt. of Nurses. SR. DELIA CLERMONT, Supt. of Nurses e55ac e Stidter Superior SISTER ALBINA BOISEVERT, S.G.M. General Superintendent and Superior. To the 1948 Graduating Class: Your three long years of training are now ended, and the glory of your graduation day is here to crown the generous efforts of your student’s career. As professional women, you have before you a future full of promise. Success will be yours if you live up to the standards and principles of your Alma Mater. We gladly share your legitimate pride of having achieved the goal. It is indeed a great pleasure for me to congratulate you at this time and express the wish, THAT THE LORD BE WITH YOU In your joys, to sanctify them, In your sorrows, to soften them, In your successes, to bless them, And in your trials, to relieve them. SISTER ALBINA BOISVERT, S.G.M., General Superintendent and Superior. 8
