Your Medical Faculty' is keenly conscious E E glisghegsfalciytlsitoglfj Sgnginitsaltgtwggisntatlnn studenlt' andft-eachen1alre.not' as numerous and E 3 n l n Q ' . y searc mg or met o s of improvement. Qne E 3 recalls with envious feelings the old relationship of the preceptor and pupil that characterized E E older and simpler plans of Medical teaching, but we must not confuse what applied to E E personal preceptorship with that which was done and is now done in Medical Schools. As E , time has advanced and the instruction in Medical Schools has become less didactic, bedside E E and laboratory teaching in small groups has improved conditions greatly but much remains E E to be done and, like others of the I-flaculty, I am constantly alive to a f-eeling of keen regret E 5 that I do not hnd the time or opportunity to knoweach of you more intimately. S - In. hnishing your undergraduate studies, you have .reached the hrst .important mile- E E stone in your Medical careers. Comparing your work with that of the builders of houses, E E one may say metaphorically that you have laid your foundations, built your walls and frame- E E work and, to some extent, finished the rougher .work of the interior. Much remains for the E 5 future and from this time forward you will engage in completing your Medical edifice, E E according to your varying tastes and inclinations. If the foundations are broad and sound E E and the walls andother superstructure firm, it matters little how varied the details of' the E ,E completed structure may be. Some of you may cultivate Medical, some Surgical ambitions, E E some will become Investigators, Laboratorians or Specialists in restricted fields, but what- : E ever your line of endeavor, you will never regret the thoroughness of your fundamental E 5 preparations. - - E E The next step in your career, that of Internship, differs from what has gone before I E in adding a new feature-responsibility. I-Ieretofore, even when as -Clinical Clerks cases I E were assigned to you for study, the responsibility, for the diagnosis and treatment has been I E on the shoulders of others, as Interns you will in varying degrees be required to assume E E this as one of your most serious dutiesg and you will speedily learn how muchl. your atti- E tude toward your work will be influenced by this circumstance. In turn the new situation E will doubtless in many cases prove the determining factor in directing your future interests 5 E in Medicine: Doi not make a cho-ice hastily 'or' with the feeling that if one sort of work E E does not finallylappeal to you, another may be chosen. It is true that such changes have E E oft-en been made by quite distinguished members of our profession, but far more often 'one E E who chooses lightly and quickly shifts to other fields loses seriousness of purpo-se. Consider E E carefull.y what type of future activity appeals most strongly to you and do no-t allow your- E E self to be diverted by the temptation of present opportunity in other directions or.by the E E ephemeral interest of some newly developed fad. Choose your last and stick to it until E E overwhelming evidence forces you to select some other. Tenacity-of purpose. accounts for E E more successes in life than unusual talents of other kinds. 'During your Internship you , E will have time and opportunity to learn your owr1 desires and should charge yourself with ' the responsibility of reaching a decision. ' E E ' Last of all may I say a word of urging in favor of avocations. Most of you will be . E practicing doctors and wigl have as great neecllitolundfei-itand nnankind its you'will have to I -g know the technicalities o your pro ession. luci o tiis wi come rom your contacts ' I with people but without wide and diversihed reading you can never fully develop your o-wn . E capacities for understanding. No more serious mistake could be made than that of believing I E a physician's studies should all be Medical. I-Ie, of all' men, should be bro-adly cultured E and, in addition, he more than others needs the relaxation that comes from a change of . - 5 thoughts. Interests in the affairs of the world, interest in sport and play, interests in Q E natural history, travel, all are broadening influences that physicians as much or- more than - E others need to cultivate, only we must remember our first and paramount duty is to devote i 3 ourselves to' Medicine itself. D l ig I 5 In partingl wish you all Godspeed and trust you will on occasions gather together to E renew your friendships and that perhaps sometimes I may be with you at these pleasant Vg 'E ' times .von 1, a - 1-1 J + s l V23 El ' ' st' . . s 'TW-' I iflla......-...,W.,.a-..,.9..asa.aa.
