Assistant Superintendent F 0 ' 667122 Lamp FCDIQEWGRD YY Y Dear Gradzlaiirzg Class - I have heard, via Miss Nliller, that you have completed your course most creditably, so it seems that you are now actually in a way to become independent. There is no end to the good you can do if you put your whole soul into your work. Worldly wisdom to the con- trary, the fact remains that those persons who have made the most enviable reputations are those who have worked the hardest in the interest of others and their names have shown the brightest for the sacrifices they have made of themselves. I persume you have had as hard work in the hospital as you are likely to get in private nursing, so you know the importance of taking care of yourself in order to make your work more effective. The cultivation of a sense of proportion, learning to devote time and atten- tion to things in the order of their real importance, is also a most valu- able habit to acquire -it seems to come natural to some people, but others have to keep it continually in mind and cultivate it, to be really successful. I hope you will consider your profession not only as a means of making a living, but as something that is really a life interest, which will take you out of a blind rut traveled by a hireling. Nothing is more unfortunate than a lack of interest in one's work!-it makes everything drag- makes the days, work too long and play time too short. It is impossible to achieve success if one is not actuated by a higher ideal than this. Your profession is so full of interesting things that tedious as some of the detail must be, you can nearly always have the satisfaction of seeing your good results work out, as well as receiving your salary. If you work for results more than for salary, I believe you will find that salary and other equivalent compensations will come of them- selves. I believe that hard work is absolutely essential to the growth and development of every man or woman, that the highest rewards have come to those who have worked the hardest, and that only the cheer- ful optimists have ever done anything worth while. Sincerely yours, GRADUATE or l9l8. C5719 Lamp UXAJEEWUN YV Y I liditm' ,...A... IJORIS jouxsox Business Manager A..A..A lCI,u,xN0R XVARD Faculty Adviser AI.-Xlilil, PARKER, R. N.

S a group who are approaching the climax of three long years of intensive training, you are no doubt jubilant that your examinatfons are over. However, l purpose to give you one last formal examination. This is to be conducted on the honor system. You may grade your own papers. i To-morrow you will receive your diplomas. XVhat will the event signify? You may think of it as either the end of your period of formal study or as the beginning of your career. VVhich is it to you - the end or the beginning, graduation or commence- ment? You must answer the question for yourself. Here is your examination: l. How does your ward look? The appearance of your ward bears the same relation to your work that your mode of dress does to you. An individual who is sloyenly in one respect is usually sloyenly in all. 2. VVhat do you do when you complete your routine ward work? Do you fold your hands and sit idly in a chair? Does this week mean to you a housekeeper's grad- uation or a nursels commencement? 3. How do your patients spend their time on the wards? Do they sit in rows along the wall? Uo you know what this means? Do your realize that psychotherapy means re-education, re-socialization and finding new interests? VVhat is your attitude toward the patient who causes you no trouble ? Apathy means inversion and regres- sion. He is not standing still. He is slipping backward. When in doubt do you ask for advice? How do you regard physicians and supervisors? Are they persons from whom you conceal your inadequacies or do they mean to you some one who may be a source of helpful suggestions? 4. Do you take a personal interest in your patients? Do you know each one's likes and dislikes? Are you as considerate as possible of such? Do you show the same courtesy to your patients as would be essential in private duty nursing in which your position more obviously depends on the patientys reaction to you? Nursing is essentially a personal relationship. This is especially true in the nursing care of mental patients. You can sell nails without any personal feeling in the matter, but you cannot help a patient recover from a psychosis without displaying a personal interest and sympathetic understanding. 5. How do your patients like you? Do they confide in you? Do they bring their big and little troubles to you? Do they share their pleasures with you? Do they tell you the news from home and that the baby has sprouted a new tooth? If not, why not? Or do they merely complain to you? Or still worse, are they actively antagoinistic toward you? And again why? Do you always try to be tactful? Do you request and suggest or do you invariably order? Do you appreciate the difference between laughing at and laughing with individuals? How do you carry out a doctor's orders? Is a pack to you a method of treatment or a threat? Some time ago I requested Twenty one that a certain patient do some regular floor polishing. She was restless and agitated and I felt that regular exercise might have a very beneficial effect. I assumed that the nurse would explain the situation to the patient. She saved time by issuing an order to the patient and neglecting an explanation. Her intentions were good, but a few minutes of tactful explanation on her part would have saved ruining in a moment the progress which had been made in weeks. 6. How do you react to patient's antagonism? Do you sink to the level of a disturbed patient and react with a childish emotional response? Do you lose your temper and plan to get even ? Or, better, are you able to ignore slurs, and petty annoyances? Or, best of all, do you make an attempt to learn the reason for the patient's antagonism and take steps to modify it if possible? One common cause of resentment toward the hospital and all connected with it may illustrate this. Many patients are brought to the hospital by relatives who have misrepresented the situation. How do you face the antagonism thus engendered? Do you ignore or avoid the subject? Do you plead the innocence of the hospital and yourself? Or are you able to discuss the situation and help the patient retionalize it? Do you call to his attention his relatives' distress, their anxiety to hasten his recovery, their unfamilarity with such problems, and their desire to arrange hospitalization as speedily as possible? Do you try to explain that although the deceit was not advisable in our eyes that it was carried out by those who were most anxious to protect his interests, and done with the best of intentions? 7. Will your interest in your medical studies end with your State Board examina- tions? Suppose the doctor on your ward has left an Rx for an encephalitic patient to receive Tr. Stramonium. You know that the dosage varies according to the patient's susceptibility. Do yon have to be asked to watch his reaction to it or are you interested in observing? Is the dose insufficient to modify the tremor and rigidity or is it too great? ls there dilatation of the pupils, dry mouth and tachycardia? Do you observe such things and report them? Are you eager to progress? Do you read medical and nursing literature? Do you discuss your ward problems with other nurses? Do you know of improvements on other wards? Do you avail yourself of opportunities to see interesting medical cases? Do you derive pleasure from seeing a patient improve and enjoy the part you have played in his recovery? Do you realize that each patient you help broadens your understanding of psychiatry and increases your mental stature? 8. What is your conception of psychiatric nursing? Do you realize that it is the most difiicult branch of nursing to adequately master? Others, such as surgical nursing are perhaps more glamorous but require manual dexterity and robot-like train- ing rather than the intellectual ability to meet ever-changing situations or understand personalities. Have you the patience and foresight to continue working with a patient month after month with perhaps but little improvement to reward your effort? Gen- eral medical and surgical nursing require less perseverance. Recovery from appendicitis or pnuemonia is a matter or days or weeks. Recovery from a psychosis is at best a matter of months. So much for the examination. Grade yourself carefully during the coming months. Will you go forward or backward? It is difficult to stand still. And even if you could, remember the maxim, The only thing deeper than a rut is a grave. What does lhis June mean to you? Graduation or Commencement?

A dizzy little extra dame went to the Hollywool Hospital a few days ago for a minor operation, but the staff physician decided that an anaesthetic would be advisable.

Being considered a generous class we do not wish to disappoint anyone, so we have endeavored to remember all deserving parties. Each member of the Class of '32 Wishes to donate something to needy individuals. To those hoping to attain future afliliation at Philadelphia, we bequeath all our worn-out caps, cuffs, aprons, ties, these being considered an asset by those not so well prepared for the call. llliss Phyllis Williams wills her style of dress to lXliss Bertha Bielak. We leave llliss Ashcroft's cheerfulness, both in sickness and health, to all those suffering from an inferiority complex. The studiousness of lxliss Doris Johnson is being bestowed as a special dispensa- tion, after much debate, to hliss Charlotte Kephart, a member of the Junior Class. llliss Kathryn Fitzpatrick's sweetness of temperament and such good looks are given to hliss lllargaret Beckman. Our humorist, llliss Eleanor Ward, bestows her own sense of humor, as well as her unique individuality, equally among all the members of the Junior Class. llliss lllary Chiz leaves her numerous conquests to our bashful, but most sincere llliss Vaughn. llliss Katherine Watson wills her beautiful blue eyes to llliss Walters. lllr. William VValters, our lone star, having successfully survived, leaves behind him his ability to Winn the approval of the fairer sex to lllr. Edward Kaufman. And last, but not least, bliss Trautman willingly, since it something of a burden, bequeaths her deceit to Bliss Joyce Hunter. To all those easily embarrassed from necessity to visit the Waste basket during pain- ful gum-chewing episodes, We leave our secret hiding places on our favorite chairs and desks. This you will find a treasured possession, especially after you have made a trip to the oHice. Any hair nets which have not already been appropriated by the birds may be given to Bliss Castellain. We trust that those persons mentioned above will derive as much pleasure from the articles stated, as the Class of '32 and may they cherish these treasures through all their training days.

Volume ll WARREN STATE HGSPITAL MAY, 1942 Number 3 bliss Edith Ashcroft, Supervisor at this hospital, entertained the Class of '32 last evening at the Nurses' Home, which has just been completed after several years of extensive repair work. We all remem- ber the Class of '32, and most of us find it interesting to note that a few have at- tained success. One of the members, whom we didn't expect to be present was bliss Doris John- son, whose mysterious return from Hawaii has caused considerable comment among the employees of this hospital. lt is ru- mored that bliss Johnson was asked to resign the position she held as combined nurse and teacher of the Hawaiians. VVhy we do not know unless the authorities felt that someone less enchanting would better qualify in teaching a people of such romanf tic temperament. Of course Catherine Fitzpatrick was present and still Fitzpatrick, if you please, bliss Fitzpatrick, is a member of the New York Secret Service Bureau. Her early training was obtained on South -I, seaching diligently for Pediculi. Another guest was Bessie Trautman. Remember when Bessie Kathleen had visions of travel to foreign lands and con- quests over members of nobility. Well, llliss Trautman has achieved success! After many weeks of pursuit Bessie mar- ried Duke Knock 'Em Out and is now traveling in style with her husband, as he encourages each and every man attending Wringer and Wronger's Circus, to step up and be knocked out or get their money back. Three shows daily-step right this way ladies and gents. Duchess Knock ,Em Out was accom- panied by Catherine VVatson, who is also a member of VVringer and Wroriger's Cir- cus. llliss Watson has the honor of being the fattest lady on exhibition. Gossip has it that upon her appearance llliss Ashcroft was so worried about the plight of her luncheon, she immediately sent out for more food. Rlary Chiz, who is still employed at the hospital, was also present. None of the returned members recognized their de- mure Rlary, and were astonfshed to learn that she is the vamp of the hospital. lt is said that no new interne has as yet escaped her charms. Phyllis YVilliams is now Assistant Di- rectiess of Nurses at the Philadelphia General Hospital. Her duties consist of supervising the nursing technique of the students and inspecting their uniforms, daily. We wonder if Phyllis makes allow- ances for no buttons, three-cornered tears and no hairnets. lt was regretted that William Walters, who is rated as a coming reporter, could stay only a short time. lllr. Walters, it is said, is a hound for news. We were all surprised to hear that Eleanor Ward is now a famous short story writer. When interviewed about her success she stated that after Writing five different Class Prophecies for her graduation before one met wfth approval, she thought short stories were simple. irty-two QI ASS PQFM Ll I have to live with myself and so I want to be fit for myself to know.

And sweet Musterole smiled on them, Smiled on Listerine and Valspar, Smiled but left them unrequited, For her love she gave to no one, Then from Multibestos Mountains From the far heights of Texaco, Came the young chief, Instant Postum Mightiest hunter in the forest, All superb in strength and beauty, He it was who trapped the Kodak, He who shot the Great Sears-Roebuck, Shot him with his swift Pierce Arrow, Eversharp, his trusty hatchet, Every arrow head a Hot Point, U'er him gazed the Moxie maidens, Nujol poured her glowing glances, llzirly-fight Bold Carbona sought to win him, Topkins brought him cakes and honey, But for Musterole yearned Postum, No Pyrene could quench the ardor That she kindled in his bosom. Through the field of ripe Wheatena, Through the Shredded VVheat they wandered By the rippling Cuticura, There beneath Palmolive shadows From the bough she picked the Grape Nuts, There they saw the sun descending. Naught cared Postum for the night wind, Blowing through the Holeproof forests, Musterole was there beside him. To his bosom quick he drew her, VVhispered words of love aburning, Told her how he caught the Seal Pax, Told her now he's slain Bull Durham, Told her how he'd trapped Ampico, Boasted of his father's tepee, With its sides of Mentholatum With its wings of soft Socony. To him Musterole a-quiver Listened, and her heart gave answer. All the warmth of love she gave him, All her Rubberest affection, ' Gave her heart to Instant Postum. There he wooed her, there he won her. Passed the years in quick successiong Small Post Toasties came to bless them, Triplets, B. V. D., Gold Dust Twins, Little Beech Nut, Wrigley Spearmint, Vici Kid and Pluto Water. These and other little Toasties Filled the wigwam with their laughter.
