7 ESTOTE FIDELES 1965 PRESENTED BY THE GRADUATES, SCHOOL OF NURSING ST. BONIFACE GENERAL HOSPITAL ST. BONIFACE MANITOBA Purpose by Henrietta Heron To be a little kindlier With the passing of each day; To leave but happy memories As I go along my way; To use possessions that are mine In service full and free; To sacrifice the trivial things For larger good to be; To give of love in lavish way That friendship true may live; To be less quick to criticize, More ready to forgive; To use such talents as I have That happiness may grow; To take the bitter with the sweet, Assured ’tis better so; To be quite free from self-intent Whate’er the task I do; To help the world’s faith stronger grow, In all that’s good and true; To keep my faith in God and right No matter how things run; To work and play and pray and trust Until the journey’s done. God grant to me the strength of heart, Of motive and of will, To do my part and falter not His purpose to fulfill. reflection ofy Dianne Sherritt Since what we choose is what we are And what we love we yet shall be The goal may ever shine afar The will to win it makes us free.” In the last three years we have met an endless number of people. Each one of them in his or her own way has influenced our lives. We are officially finishing our student days at St. B.”. Our class has studied, played, worked, complained, and joked together. Now we are leaving with mixed emotions; proud that we have reached our long awaited goal — graduation; yet sad that we must part with the friends we have made here. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Sr. Fleury and Miss Hejlsted for the time and assistance they have so generously given. To the yearbook staff I would like to say, thanks”, you have been wonderful. I really enjoyed working with you because you were always willing to help in any way you could. Lorri, I wish you and your staff every success next year. I hope this yearbook brings back memories for all of you. In the years to come when you reminisce with your class mates, orpick up the yearbook as you are clean¬ ing the attic or sit with your granddaughter on your knee, I hope you fully appreciate Marilyn Chisholm llresittetti’s Message Lost yesterday Somewhere between sunrise and sunset Three golden years Each set with a thousand diamond moments No reward is offered, For they are gone forever.” How much truth there is in this! In the past three years, opportunity was given to everyone to prepare for whatever part she was ordained to meet. The days came to you linked one to another, so that simple faithfulness today always prepared you for the duty of tomorrow. The days were like steps on a stairway, each one meant to lift your feet and make you ready for the next. If you only embrace and use your oppor¬ tunities as they came to you, one by one, you will never be surprised by any sudden emergency in life, whether of duty or of trial, for which you will not be ready. In this school of nursing, one lesson well learned led up to the next, and made it easier; and each day’s lessons mastered through the years, brought graduation in the end. To my fellow graduates — Congratulations — good luck, health and happiness. To our fellow students — put all your thought and energy and skill into the duty of each day, wasting no strength, either in grieving yesterday’s failures, or in anxiety about tomorrow’s responsibilities. It is the wish of the Student Council that I extend to our director, faculty and fellow students a grateful thank you” for their efforts and devotion in making a success of this past year. May I also extend to each of you my own personal appre¬ ciation. It was an honour to serve as your president. President STUDENT COUNCIL: Pres. Class ’67 - G. Garroni; 2nd yr. rep. - D.

(Alumnae The Executive Dear Graduates, The St. Boniface Registered Nurses’ Alumnae Association extends to you most sincere con¬ gratulations and wishes of success on your graduation day. May you demonstrate continued interest in your Alma Mater” by a sense of loyalty to your Alumnae Association and by a spirit of unity among members of your graduating class. Upon graduation you automatically become members of your Alumnae Association and, as members, have the privilege of voting and participating in the activities of the Association. We, therefore, encourage you to attend the meetings which are held at the School of Nursing in October, December, January (the Annual Meeting and Banquet) March and May. Throughout the year your Alumnae Association sponsors the fund raising Coffee Party at the hospital cafeteria, the Spring Tea, the Sister Clermont Scholarship Awards for Graduate Nurses and the Graduation Dance for the new graduate nurses. Since any Association is as good as its members, may you, as new graduates, bring the spirit of initiative and enthusiasm to your Alumnae Association in future years, that you have shown during the three years of the Nursing Course. Sister A. Fleury, President St. Boniface Registered Nurses Alumnae Association (Efyaplauts Father Allen Soucy and Father Clayton Barclay Dear Graduates, Hold the physician in honor”, the Holy Scripture says, for he is essential to you.” This praise given to doctors, should also be given to nurses, since they exercise a very noble influence on individuals and on society. Nursing is indeed an apostolic work, because it influences the spiritual life of the patient. Look at nurses”, says Pius XII, are they not just like born auxiliaries of the clergy?” Briefly, everything can be summarized in the two great Commandments of God: love of God and love of neighbour, the two being one and the same thing. If you, as nurses, recognize the suffering Christ in your patients, you will learn how to find the goodness of Christ toward them. Beside the bed of the suffering Christ, you will be the compassionating Christ. Congratulations and God Bless you in your apostolic work. The Chaplains, Father Clayton Barclay Father Allen Soucy JVrdjbtsljop Monseigneur Baudoux Dear Graduates: Not so long ago you started training to become registered nurses. This was for you an opportunity to develop your skills, enlighten your thinking and give new dimensions to your spirituality. It was also a chance for you to trust fully in your School of Nursing and in God. The School has offered you its best in everything and God has not counted his blessings for you. Now the School is happy to see you live this moment of YOUR GRADUATION and wishes you the great challenges and joys the world of nursing has waiting for you. As God sees you entering this new phase in your life, my wish is that He be with you always so that you may bring witness of His Love and His Grace for his children especially those afflicted by sickness. Estote fideles Cheres finissantes: Depuis longtemps deja vous attendez ce moment de VOTRE GRADUATION. Et avec raison! Votre joie et votre fierte sont bien legitimes et nous sommes tous tres heureux de les partager avec vous en cette occasion. Le monde de la souffrance humaine vous attend avec anxiete. 11 porte sur vous des esperances ecrasantes. Allez a sa rencontre avec confiance. Apportez-lui toute la generosite de votre coeur. Offrez-lui tout ce que l’ecole des gardes-malades a pu vous apprendre au sujet du soin des malades. Laissez la grace du Seigneur mouler votre ame a l’image de la sienne. Partout et toujours temoignez de l’amour de Dieu pour les siens et plus specialement pour ses malades. Je vous benis. Maurice Baudoux votre archeveque ,i®totljer roiitncial Dear Student Nurses: During your high school days, you often pondered these symbolic words of Ulysses: , . . all experience is an arch where through Gleams that untravelled world, whose margin fades Forever and forever when I move.” As you stand on the threshold of a new life of service and dedication, may the spirit of the poet guide you on to an untiring and neverfading devotion to your ideal. You are indeed entering an untravelled world, despite the recent astounding discoveries in psychology, psychiatry, sociology, and the medical sciences. I am happy to voice the good-wishes of all my Sisters of the St. Boniface Province when I fervently pray that you may have the grace ever To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.” Mother Rita Fortier Provincial Superior j tsier j upmor My dear Nurses — Today, you have reached one goal — graduation. To each and everyone I extend my most sincere congratulations. Although you have now reached the ultimate goal, it should not be looked upon as the final purpose of your training. A true nurse has an urge and an inspiration that comes from the realization that as she serves others she ministers as a representative of God. In this accomplishment you will be challenged to strive for new goals. Do not cast them aside but choose them cautiously keeping in mind these immortal words of St. Francis of Assisi: Lord, grant that I may seek To comfort rather than to be comforted, To understand rather than to be understood, To love rather than to be loved: For- It is by giving that one receives, It is by self-forgetting that one finds, It is by dying that one wakens to eternal life.” Sister Lucille Gosselin,s.g.m. Administrator Sister Lucille Gosselin, s.g.m. •Btrerior (®f jlctjool Sister A. Fleury, s.g.m. Education is not merely to fill themindwith other men’s thoughts and to be the passive recipient of their impressions of things and the acquiescent concurrer in their judgments. The purpose of learning is to enlarge our individual intelligence: we do not wish to copy a master’s work but to express our own thought and feeling.” Dear Graduates: The above quotation may be applied to the Nursing Course which you have just completed. You have acquired a special body of knowledge and specific skills which will equip you to render services as a professional nurse in any type of nursing situation. The educational programme which you have followed is the same for each of you - but your per¬ sonal response to this education is unique. This individuality must be preserved and the educational process in you should grow continuously. Further education is now, and will be, as necessary as life itself. Therefore, do not be satisfied with half measures in your aim for continued perfection of your knowledge, abilities and professional commitments. God has given each one of you individual talents and these should be developed to the fullest extent by your own personal efforts. True education, or the enrichment of your abilities, engenders enthusiasm - and enthusiasm is communicative. It is your patients and fellow nurses with whom you come in contact who will be the beneficiaries of your good works. May your light shine before men that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father who is in Heaven.” Congratulations and God be with you always. Sister A. Fleury, s.g.m.

L’Heureux Dear Graduates: For the past three years all of you have worked seriously and with determination towards the attainment of your R.N. To some, graduation may seem like the final goal. However, most of you will know that it is but a beginning. Your professional status, as symbolized by graduation, carries with it the respon¬ sibility for continuing your education and keeping abreast of new developments in the rapidly changing field of medical and hospital care. Your full potential as a nurse will be realized through service; through meeting the challenge of the future with its changing techniques; through adaptation to newer and better methods of bringing the highest quality of care to all your patients. Your short period offormal training may now be ended and you may have achieved a high mark in your examinations, but the true measure of this programme will be reflected in the stimulation which it gives to the creation of new ideas and the desire for serving which it has instilled in you. On behalf of the Medical Staff, I am happy to offer our congratulations and very best wishes for a long and happy professional life. P. L’Heureux, M.D. Medical Director JV ' (Jribute ' So dr tg ttns 1 ■ I W ™ To those who have been to us a constant example of increasing dedication, fortitude, and Christian charity may we humbly say thank you” for all you have done. Just as our nursing education must continue to grow, so must the application of the Christian principles you have given us. Because we have been educated in a religious atmos¬ phere, we will go forth bravely into whatever field our profession may take us. For, you have endowed us with all the requirements of truly professional people and have equipped us to meet the total needs of the individual patient. To toil and not to crave for rest, to labour and not to seek reward.” Just as your found¬ ress Mother d’ Youville you have faced insurmountable obstacles with a spirit of persistence and determination. Your increasing spirit of devotion and dedication has been a constant source of inspiration and guidance to us. These are the things that count. Because we have met you, our lives have been enriched. You have deeply impressed our minds and hearts. We will never forget you. AWARDS Medal for General Proficiency Presented by Dr. J.F.S. Hughe To Miss Gayle Bums.

T o Miss Janet Handlon. tElje llaletHctorjj JVddregg Claudette DePape It is therefore your privilege , and I may add , your duty to be dedicated to the work thus far advanced, and into the future open a better way.” Mr. Chairman, Reverend Sisters, honored guests, faculty members, dear parents and fellow classmates. Our position as graduate nurses is well stated in these words. Tonight is a time to pause - to look back and to look ahead. We are all looking hopefully and expec¬ tantly to the future and what it holds for us. But what of the past? Let us for a short moment think of the lowly sunflower. Does it not radiate an impression of our past, present and future? From its initiation into the world as a tiny insignificant seed it bears a striking resemblance to the similar initiation we have experienced. The planter has plans for the seed that some day it might radiate its brightness to all passerby. But if it is to grow many essentials for its development are required. Lest we forget our debt of gratitude to those very dear and special people who have made today a reality, we, the 79 sunflowers of 1965, owe to so many the fact of our presence here tonight. Just as the seed needs protection and attention for its growth, so do we, desper¬ ately need security and love. Dear Mom and Dad, you can pick out the face of your daughter, a face which depicts the love and gratitude of your unselfish sacrifice. As the sunflower, for a healthy growth, must build its foundation with solid roots, so must we receive the best education, that we may enter actively into making the future one which those who follow us, may review with pride. To you, Sister Fleury, our Director, and to those who assist you, we express our warmest apprecia¬ tion for establishing an educational program geared to the needs of every individual. Because of your high degree of dedication to your students, we, in turn feel a high degree of dedication to our chosen profession. The heavens open and give rain to the growing sunflower when its existence seems uncertain. We too, in the past three years have stopped to question our exis¬ tence. Who are we, what are we, where are we going and why?” The answers came slowly with the encouragement and patience of those who taught us in the class¬ room and in the clinical area. The hospital and medical staff, the Sisters, and especi¬ ally our instructresses, helped us find the keys to unlock our potentialities for the performance of a useful work in theworld. You deserve to be congratulated for your constant efforts to give us the knowledge we required. May we never cease to realize the importance of learning. The evolution of nursing has unfolded like the magnificent sunflower. Just as it needs to be nourished, protected, and displayed if it is to be serviceable and good, so we too, need the constant guidance and supervision of our instructresses. Thank you for teaching us to think, and for equipping us to grow throughout our lives in professi onal service, in personal stature and usefulness as citizens. When the sun shines, the sunflower continually turns toward the brightness, that it may absorb some of it, and in turn radiate it to others. To all those who have made residence a home away from home”, thankyou for giving us so much warmth and brightness during our stay with you. But memories of the undergraduate past cannot occupy the mind of the graduate forever, nor prevent her from indulging in long wistful looks ahead. In those allur¬ ing soul-disturbing peeps into the future, it is true that in sallying forth to find our places in the world, we have no experience, but we have an eager hopeful outlook. It is true that we lack wisdom, but we have boundless courage and a capacity for industry. It is true that we do not know all the rules of the game, but we have a firm faith in high ideals. If, during our three years of preparation, we have learned how to work, how to concentrate on difficult problems, how to search for truth and how to make stead¬ fast friends, the riper gifts will come of themselves, just as soon as we learn to apply the lessons of our three nursing years to the weightier problems of life. It is important that we think of tomorrow. It is our contributions that may bend the course of the future. As we envision our future, we witness the unfolding of an entirely new concept in nursing. This is no age for the meek and fearful — it calls for all we can contribute towards inspired leadership, the reward for analytical think¬ ing and efficient planning. As graduates, it is our duty to promote these changes and perform the more complex functions that will be required of us. Although many changes are destined to be a part of our future we will maintain the basic principles we have learned. In our hands will be placed the visible result of our past three years — we are to¬ day where our knowledge has brought us, we will be tomorrow where further acquisition of knowledge takes us; we will receive that which we earn, no more, no less. We will become as small as our controlling desire, as great as our dominant aspiration. As a well-known poet has so beautifully put it, we graduates could fulfill our destiny if we could really believe that — to think is the source of power; to play is the secret of perpetual youth; to read is the fountain of wisdom; to pray is the great¬ est power on earth; to love and be loved is a God-given privilege; to be friendly is the road to happiness; to laugh is the music of the soul; to give for the day is too short to be selfish and to work for this is the price of success. The St. Boniface School of Nursing honors its graduates tonight. We are proud to have been a part of this school. Ladies and gentlemen — The Graduates of 1965! JU TANNIS ABRAHAM Winnipeg, Man.

Elfstrom Sometimes I’ve had the feeling As I watched the setting sun, That life was swiftly passing by And too soon would be done. As I stood there filled with reverence At Nature’s wondrous way; I asked myself the question What good have I done today? To my less fortunate neighbour Did I lend a helping hand; Did I listen to his woes and Really try to understand? Have I reached a rung that’s higher On the ladder toward my goal; Have I taken out a moment for Communion with my soul? Was I honest with my fellow man And also with myself; Did I admit when I was wrong, Putting pride upon the shelf? Have I been a friend to those I met In the things I did and said; And when tempted to speak sharply Did I count to ten instead? Did I take time out to laugh — to love — To think — to see — to pray? These are the thoughts that cross my mind As I watch the dying day. j econti “Hear BACK ROW- D.Nyznyk,J.Hudon,B.Fedoruk,D. Agopsowicz, B. Cusitar, M. Hill, C. Kuiyk. THIRD ROW: J. Gmi- terek, L.

Miss Bawdier Dr. Alvi, Miss Merlevede ITf J 1 ■nil m MT- (Assistant t ? ■Bir cior Dear Graduates: Nothing is permanent in life, except change.’’ If this quotation is true then you have a responsibility to yourself and to society to con¬ tinue your education, and contribute to and evaluate change. Present knowledge and tradi¬ tions are important but only as a basis for build¬ ing on in the future. Changing concepts indi¬ cate a closer relationship with the home, hos¬ pital and community, with greater emphasis on prevention, rehabilitation and the social compon¬ ents of illness. The truly professional nurse must have a high level of competence based on knowl¬ edge and principles. Her acceptance of respon¬ sibility should indicate that she is capable of exercising intellectual and moral judgment. This kind of judgment is not dependent on rules or formulae for guidance but the authority must come from within the professional nurse her¬ self. Congratulations and Best Wishes. Mrs. V. Vermander (Assistant in (tncation Dear Graduates: The most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you ought to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not. ” The world of nursing that welcomes you, graduates of 1965, is full of things, great and small, that need to be done. It takes a special kind of courage to try new ventures, to court failure on the way to success. My wish for nursing is that you may have this courage to do the thing you have to do”; my wish for you is that you like it”. Mrs. J.E.

That grand day of corsages and pay raises has finally come; the end of slave labor —CONGRATU¬ LATIONS. You have jolly well earned them, too! Amazingly enough there are no grey hairs or atrophic wrinkles as you may have feared, nor are there jaded personalities and convictions as parents and friends may have feared. There are, I suspect, some red hands, sore feet, and blurry eyes among you. And bless you, you didn’t turn into cold sterile pieces of hospital furniture either. The product resulting from these past three years is quite a choice one. You not only are first rate nurses and grade A-l women (as exemplified by the warmth, kindness, and gentleness with which you administer a 5-Handed procedure ) but you have gained a great wealth spiritually and materially. The spiritual wealth is best described by Sir William Osier in one of his addresses to a class of graduating nurses: The eyes of your souls have been opened, the range of your sympathies has been widened, and your characters have been moulded by the events in which you have been participators during the past years.” Your material wealth arises from the fact that you are registered nurses. You now have the means” with which to reach any end” you desire. From all of us, the Interns, to all of you, the new Registered Nurses, we add to our congratulations the hope that our association with you will continue for many years to come. The past few years have been far too short a time to have known you. -ittclpm Central |tyarmaqj pt| 6totl|erap ‘Jlaboratorp Radiotherapy Mrs. H. Craning Miss H. McHale Miss M. Harms —3A Miss L.

Age Group Involved: — Student nurses in their senior year of nursing education. — Symptoms may be precipitated by N.L.N. achievement tests previous to actual writing of R.N. examinations. Clinical Manifestations: — Cyanosis of the (R) index finger from pressing the panic button. — Frayed nerve endings for above reason. — Frayed ends of hair from pulling at same. —Dark circles under eyes from worry and loss of sleep. — Frantic study in the library or any convenient corner that will hold one student with one book. This may occur day or night, on or off duty. — Complete rejection of assignment from any nursing department despite the fact that it may make further study in this area easier at a later date. — Denial of responsibility for any work which may contribute to the general learning process. — Transfer of this responsibility to scapegoats called instructors. — Rapid accumulation of facts. This symptom lasts for a shorter period than all other symptoms and may not be noticeable in the majority of cases. — Rejection of any new material that may occupy the space reserved for re-shifting of material learned over previous two and a half to three years. Diagnosis: — Clinical observation of a large number of patients. Treatment: — Prevention is most N.B. as in many other disease. It consists of a well balanced diet of study, work with re¬ creation and determination throughout the period of education. —An increased diet of studying is recommended at the onset of symptoms but there is a danger of overdosage. —A bland diet consisting of regular scheduling of hours of study and subject material studies. — Seasonings may be included but should not be poured on in exaggerated quantities, e.g. study in areas unrelated to areas of experience may add flavor but more in general is gained by relation of theory and practice at the same time. Prognosis: — Those showing all symptoms of this disease are usually the ones that survive the longest, although no deaths have as yet been recorded. Standing rtbrs Jfor dljam 1. Do not call for patient until surgeon has been waiting 25 minutes, at least, and has scrubbed three times. 2.

Be sure to reassure the patient that even though it it is her first operation there is nothing to worry about since it is Dr. Cham’s first anesthetic and your first scrub. 4. As soon as the patient is asleep call Dr. Minik to have someone come and relieve Dr. Cham for coffee. 5. When surgeon seems to be pleased with everything — especially the anesthetic —innocently ask Dr. Cham why he told the patient to get a better surgeon next time. 6. During any critical moment —such as intubation, recessation, shock, or cardiac arrest. . .be sure you are NOT available — out of the room preferably —and on your return complain bitterly about service in the coffee lounge. 7. Insist the anethetist wear three masks during T and A’s — but allow him tocough openly into craniotomies and disc fusions. 8. On a small slate—when everyone is dying to get off early and go golfing. . .don’t send for the patient until you are all set up, and then scrub the wrong foot for 20 minutes. 9. Disregard all above orders and just be yourself— and who knows—you may wind up as a trained nurse —doing tricks. ■ Jti n F1 1 jf Remember . . .

But what I mean by ‘better women’ is that the eyes of your souls have been opened, the range of your sympathies has been widened, and your characters have been moulded by the events in which you have been participators during the past two years. “Practically there should be for each of you a busy, useful, and happy life; more you cannot expect; a greater blessing the world cannot bestow. Busy you will certainly be, as the demand is great, both in private and public, for women with your training. Useful your lives must be, as you will care for those who cannot care for themselves, and who need about them, in the day of tribula¬ tion, gentle hands and tender hearts. And happy lives shall be yours, because busy and useful; having been initiated into the great secret — that happiness lies in the absorption in some vocation which satisfies the soul; that we are here to add what we can to, not to get what we can from, life.” Sir William Osier With the best wishes of: WHitehal I 3-5809 SEVENTEEN SPECIALTY SHOP Diamonds v w l h Watches High Style All Brand Names Dresses-Sportswear-Lingerie-Suits-Coats Wedding Gowns and Accessories - Sizes 5 to 17 10% to all student nurses 359 Portage Avenue Winnipeg 2, Manitoba BEN MOSS JEWELLERS 477 Portage Avenue - Mall Centre Free Gift Wrapping Special Discounts CLEANERS DYERS LAUNDERERS FURRIERS Congratulations on your Graduation FOR FUN AND DAYTIME DRESSES ELECTRIC MFG.
