ADMINISTRATION Mrs. BESSIE PERRY BURGESS, R.N. Director of Nursing Service and the School of Nursing MESSAGE TO GRADUATING CLASS To the Class of 1949, I offer my congratulations. Your three years with us has helped to make our Watts School of Nursing a better School. The Class of ’49 has been out- standing both in theory and in nursing service. I am proud of the Class and wish for each member happiness and success as a graduate nurse. As a Watts graduate, you have a firm foundation upon which to build your future. Many of you will become leaders of our noble profession; and as leaders you will turn to the task of peace, to rebuilding and strengthening the nursing schools and nursing organizations of every country, to creating an environment in which health of mind and body can flourish. So— DON’T YOU QUIT “When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all up hill, When the funds are low and the debts are high, And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest if you must, but don’t you quit! Success is failure turned inside out. The silver tint of the clouds of doubt; And you never can tell how close you are— It may be near when it seems so far; So, stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit— It’s when things seem worst that you mustn’t quit!” BESSIE PERRY BURGESS Director of Nursing Service and the School of Nursing PAGE 8

THE NIGHTINGALE edge SOLEMNLY pledge myself before God and in the presence of this assembly: To pass my life in purity and to practise my profession faithfully. I will abstain from whatever is dele- terious and mischievous, and will not take or knowingly administer any harm- ful drug. I will do all in my power to maintain and elevate the standards of my profession and hold in confidence all personal matters committed to my keeping and all family affairs coming to my knowledge in the practise of my profession. With loyalty will I endeavor to aid the physician in his work, and devote myself to the welfare of those committed to my care.
