Aea • BE message thai I have for the Class of 1925 is. first, to congratulate them on the successful accomplishment of the aim that each member had in mind when entering the Army School, and. second, to urge upon them , remember as thev go out into the busy world where so much emphasis is apt to he placed on the commercial aspects of any profession that success will depend upon keeping constantly in mind the traditional voluntary service phase of ours, the ' •greatest profession. By voluntary service is meant not only the giving of time, energy and work without just, adequate payment in return hut continual thought of the spiritual element permeating all these, hut infinitely above them. May each of vou find from the very first year of your professional life that the true reward of a nurse ' s life is to see the sick recover, the weak made strong, little children saved from suffering, and to feel that yours have been the Divinely helped bands and brain used to conserve and restore the priceless gift of health.
