KNOWLEDGE PLANTED IN YOUTH GIVETH SHADE IN OLD AGEU HISTORY OF THE HOSPITAL VV N 1905 the King's Daughters of Lestershire, N. Y., started a 10-bed hospital, known as the King's Daughters' Hospital, in a good sized house on Avenue A, donated by George F. Johnson. This hospital was furnished by the society and interested townspeople, with the exception of the operating room and one private room which were furnished by Dr. William Wilson and Dr. Charles Sumner Wilson. After a few years Dr. Charles Wilson bought the hospital from the society, and the name was changed to the Lestershire-Endicott-Union Hospital. In 1911 Dr. Charles Wilson purchased the buildings at 47 Harrison Street from the Practical Bible Training School, and in March, 1912, the hospital then called the Lestershire Hospital, was formally opened. There were 36 beds on the Hrst and second floors, the third floor being used for the nurses in the training school. In 1919 the training school was registered. The village name had been changed from Lestershire to Johnson City, so at this time the name of the hospital was again changed to the Johnson City General Hospital. An Alumnae Associ- ation was formed which is a unit of the New York State Nurses' Association and the American Nurses, Association, through its membership in District No. 5. This Association was organized for the mutual help and improvement of gradu- ates, the promotion of good fellowship among its members, and the advancement of the interests of the profession. On November 11th, 1926, Dr. Charles S. Wilson very quietly passed on. He was mourned by every man, woman and child in the valley, for directly or indirectly their lives had been benefited by his long years of service. Under his management the little 10-bed hospital had grown to a 174-bed hospital. On May 7th, 1927, a Nurses' Home, to accommodate 80 nurses, was com- pleted and given by Mr. C. Fred Johnson in memory of his wife, Mrs. Ida Johnson. In June, 1927, the hospital was purchased from the Vfilson Estate by the Endicott-Johnson Corporation. They in turn deeded it to the Board of Managers, forming a membership corporation and operating as a community hospital, choos- ing the name Charles S. Wilson Memorial Hospital in memoriam to Dr. Charles Wilson. During the years 1930-1931 and thus far in 1932 many improvements have been made, at an approximate cost of SS5,000. The hospital now has a capacity of 200 beds, and gave 45,877 days' hospital care in 1931.

JOHNSON MEMORIAL HOME VY O THE casual observer the building standing at 33 Harrison Street is merely a structure of brick, well constructed and commanding in appearance. Yet Within these walls is a home, a real home, for the nurses of the Wilson Memorial Hospital School of Nursing. As we finish our course our future looms glorious ahead of us, but as we turn and look back at our two and a half years of preparation, we find many things which have been of true value to us in building our profession. Here we would set aside a little space to relate what the home has meant to us as student nurses. We are quite sure we know what was in the mind of our friend, Mr. C. Fred Johnson, as he gave the splendid building to be used for our Nurses' Home. We believe it was planned for our happiness, for the development of right attitudes of mind, and right habits of life, as well as for social adjustment in the broadest term. We were very serious young women as we entered our chosen profession, but we were soon to be disillusioned if we felt our school life was to be taken seriously all the time. Initiation proved this fact. While it may have had serious and embarrassing moments for us, we afforded continual amusement for the rest of the student body and faculty as they put us through what they called an evening of proper initiation. With the happy, unforgetable preliminary period behind us, we came to our second eventful social activity. This was known as our capping ceremony. We had earned our complete uniform. As Miss McAfee made the presentation we were led to feel deeply conscious that here was the sign of our profession. XVe admired the significance of the uniform as we beheld it on our seniors, but it was increasingly beautiful after it had become our own. This ceremony was made impressive, not only by the granting of the uniform, but each member of our .class was presented with the Florence Night- ingale pledge beautifully tied with blue and gold ribbon, a talisman rose being attached. It was on this occasion that the president of the student body welcomed us into the school organization. Mrs. Charles F. Johnson, Chairman of the Training School Board, brought a message of greeting. The social feature for our regular weekly Home Night during the winter 1930- 1931 was instruction in social dancing under the supervision of our physical director, Miss Olga Hendryx. This was interspersed by Hallowe'en, Valentine, and New Year dances. Also, there were several bridge parties for our recreation fund. Summer time in training days meant picnics, hikes, and out-door sports. Through the courtesy of the Endicott-Johnson Corporation we have had access to swimming pool and tennis courts without charge. Buses for picnics! Sleighs for sleigh rides! Though snow does not always stay as ordered, at which times we have to substitute a straw ride. We'll try it just once. Page Twenty mne 06 Page NTHE HOPE or THE WORLD IS THE oPTrMisT Resolved: We're glad we live in days of automobiles. Eight miles in two hours. Too little time left for dancing. My, but the clam chowder was good! Ever eager to earn money for our Student Recreation Fund, we hailed with delight the making of sandwiches for one of the local stores to be sold at the parade celebrating the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Endicott Johnson Shoe Industry. One thousand, two hundred and forty-six sandwiches were theirs, one hundred dollars, ours. The annual convention of the New York State Nurses' Association was held in New York City, October 20-23, 1931. A spirit of pride took possession of us as we saw four of our students leave to attend this convention. From the enjoyable reports they brought back each member of Class '32 was inspired to attend next year's con- vention as a graduate nurse. As we approached our senior year we felt keenly our responsibility in making not only our professional life a success, but also the social side of our training days. We were hostesses at several teas. We make mention of two: One given in November, 1931, which was a farewell for Miss Mary Fritts. Invitations were sent to the wives of doctors, Training School Committee, Hospital Board, and the officers of the Wilson Memorial Guild. The other tea was given to show our appreciation to the Wilson Memorial Guild. The Hrst social activity of our graduation program, Hospital Day, May 12th, is another opportunity on which we shall eagerly do them honor. Christmas in the hospital is not a dismal time. Our celebrations for both 1930 and 1931 consisted of a Christmas Party for the less fortunate children of the village. It is much feared that strict regulation over invitations was not adhered to, for as we saw the eager faces of other little ones pressed against the window-panes we could not resist bringing them in. One hundred and sixty-five happy, little guests. How they enjoyed the beautiful tree full of tinsel and lights, while all around the tree the toys were temptingly arrayed. Stockings filled with candy and nuts, and an article of warm clothing completed the gifts. Eager were the hands held out as Santa read the name of each guest. Refreshments were served, and an enjoyable program provided. Christmas morning, instead of the regular chapel service, the students marched through the hospital carrying candles, and singing carols for the benefits of the patients. Then they marched to the dining room which was appropriately decorated for the occa- sion. Greetings were sent by students to friends of the school. New Year's week our Senior Formal Dance was held. Besides the social activities at which we entertained our friends, the Home Nights of the winter 1931-32 were given over to music and lectures. Our choral work was supervised by Miss Ruth B. Taylor, lectures and book reviews were given by the following friends of the school: American Beauty-Edna Ferber, by Mrs. Howard Davis, Mother Earth-Pearl S. Bret, by Rev. Karl Kalgren, D. D.g Famous Spas of France, Dr. Arthur Chittenden. Stereopticon pictures and lectures on Japan, Dr. Keiji Uchikura. Stereopticon pictures and lecture on Lure of American Wonderland, by Roy Whipple. Advancement of World Peace, by Rev. john Flynn. Stereopticon pictures and lecture on the Passion Play of Oberammergeau, by Agnes Oldfield, R. N. Stereopticon pictures and lecture on My Western Trip, Josephine Lee. Thirty WE MUST FACE LIFE WITH CONFIDENCEH The completion of our training is a great event to us. Happy are we as we antici- pate a commencement which is gracious, dignified, and full of promise. We look for- ward to tea, banquet, reception, and dances, but these, with the exercise of graduation itself, will soon pass into history. Now, we can but give the forecast. May 12th, Hospital Day, when the graduating class entertains the Wilson Memorial Guild, May 1st, Alumni Banquet, June 3rd, a formal dance given by the Class of '33 in the Spanish Ball Room of the Arlington Hotel, June 5 th Baccalaureate Service at All Saints' Episcopal Church of Johnson City, june 6th, Class Nightg June 8th, Commencement, at the Johnson City High School auditorium. This is followed by our Commence- ment Dance, and Reception in the gardens of Mrs. Charles F. Johnson. This event is fast crystallizing into a tradition, and this beauty spot makes a delightful place for the graduates to receive their friends. We say a sincere thank you to Mrs. Charles F. Johnson, to the Hospital Board, to the Training School Faculty and to our Social Director for the splendid week of graduation festivities. We also wish to gratefully acknowledge the following gifts to the school: For our Recreational Fund by Hospital Board, S300.00g for Children's Christmas Party by Wilson Memorial Guild, S25.00g for Children's Christmas by Supervisors, 325.005 for Childrerfs Christmas Party by Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Millard, one bushel peanuts, for Nurses' Annual by Wilson Memorial Guild, 3525.003 25 records for Vic- trola at Christmas of ,32 by Dr. Clarence Whittemoreg for one year's subscription to Vogue,,' by Wilson Memorial Guild, for a beautiful table cover at Christmas by Mrs. Charles F.

Wilson Memorial Hospital School of Nursing. And when the time was come that we entered into the Nurses' Home we were met by one, -Miss Anderson, who was there to receive the first payment on our career, and to assign to each girl a room on the third floor, that we might be as far away as possible. Now, we would not have you ignorant, brethren, how that Miss Anderson was more than this, for she became at once the mother of these 32 girls. This new home life provoked us, therefore we wept and did not eat. And Miss Anderson said, Why weepest thou, and why eatest thou not? Is not this home as nice as the one from which you came? Why is thy heart grieved? And we vowed a vow, and said, If thou wilt indeed look on our homesick con- dition, and remember us, and forget us not, and wilt give unto us our week-ends that we may return to our parents and our homes, then shall we cease from weeping. And so it came to pass that we were allowed to go thither to our homes each week-end for nearly four months, and we did eat, and our countenances were no more sad. And we arose up each morning, very early Qfor usj, and attended roll call and chapel. Wherefore in due time it came to pass that we should be initiated and our seniors all gathered together to perform such vows as they had vowed when they were probies. So it was that we were initiated, and the memories thereof remain with us unto this day. And Miss McAfee said unto us, Thou shalt not wear thy cap until the probation- ary term shall be served. Then will I call for thee. Now when these four months had been fulfilled unto each of us who still remained there was given a cap that we might appear as other nurses. And we said unto her, For this time have we prayed, and our petition hath been granted. Therefore we shall serve our remaining two years as becometh professional student nurses. On the 27th day of the second month of the year one thousand, nine hundred and thirty, our hearts rejoiced because eight girls came to take up their training, and become the junior section of our class. And we said unto them, 'tThere is no training school like our training school, there is no nurses' home like our Nurses, Home, neither is there any superintendent of nurses like unto Miss McAfee. Talk no more so exceed- ing proud, for out of thy mouth shalt thy actions be weighed. Thou shalt become poor, yet shalt thou be rich, thou shalt be brought low, yet shalt thou be lifted upf' And in like manner they passed through the fiery trials of initiation, and the glorious exaltation of capping. And they become like unto us, and we continued together unto the end. Now, when two years of our training were accomplished, we received from Miss McAfee the black bands for our caps. Miss McAfee commended us, and spoke in this manner: Now, art thou dignified seniors. Of thee shalt much be expected. Now has the time come when we, the Class of 1932, as a class, are very old. We have hearkened unto the teachings of our supervisors and doctors, and have tried to do those things which were pleasing in their sight, and now one by one twenty and seven of us are leaving our training school. We go to represent our school wherever we areg we offer ourselves upon the altar of service, we shall wear our white uniforms clean and spotless, and we shall minister unto the house of the afflicted. Be it far from us to bring dishonor upon ourselves, upon our school, or upon our profession. These things speak we unto you, most excellent people, that ye might know the things concerning us, and that your joy might be complete.

Page Thirty-nine RTHE ART or NURSING IS THE GIFT OF con 'C lb Page PRESENTATION OF PLACOUE TO SCHOOL BY CLASS '32 YV To show our joy and deep appreciation to the Charles S. Wilson Memorial School of Nursing, and all who have helped us to attain our long-cherished ambition of becoming members of the nursing profession, we, the Class of 1932, Wish to present this placque of Florence Nightingale, the one who had the courage and inspiration to found such a noble profession. Florence Nightingale, of a wealthy and socially prominent English family, was born in England in 1820. During her youth she was constantly trying to serve her fellowman and, as she grew older, she realized how little was being done to ease their sufferings. Then she decided to devote her life to find ways and means of helping the sick. She went to diierent hospitals to study their methods. In 1854 she become an out- standing figure through her work in the Crimean War. She established hospitals and nursing service for the soldiers. Thus, through her self-sacrifice and zeal she started the profession which is now one of the most honored and esteemed professions of the world. We who have upheld the ideals of Florence Nightingale present this placque to you and we hope that it will prove an inspiration to you who have chosen this profession for your life work. Forty TODAY is YOUR DAY-AND MINEH Cv bb VALEDICTORY YV LEVATION-what we call success-never comes spontaneously, it is the result of quality put into a work one loves. We all dream of great deeds of high positions, away from the pettiness and humdrum of ordinary life. Yet success is not occupying a lofty place or doing con- spicuous workg it is being the best that is in you. Struggling around in too big a job is much worse than filling a small one to overflowing. Dream, aspire by all means, but do not ruin the life you must lead by dreaming pipe dreams of the one you would like to lead. Make the most of what you have and are. Perhaps your trivial, immediate task is your one sure way of proving your mettle. Do the thing near at hand, and great things will come to your hand to be done. There is always a way to connect your tastes and aspirations with the needs of the world, if you are brave enough to accept the way when you find it. To some people success is everything and the easier it is gained the better. Success is really nothing unless it is won by painful effort. No matter how we may have failed in the past, the door of opportunity is always open to us. We should not give way to useless regrets, we should know that the future is within our control, that it will be what we choose to make it. We, the Class of 1932, have reached the first milestone in the followin S of our chosen profession. We owe our success thus far to our Principal, Miss McAfee, instructors and supervisors, whose patience and tireless efforts have made this day a reality. As we approach the new and unfamiliar phases of our work we shall miss the hel in hand and the uidin influence of those P S S S who have iven us the coura e and ins iration to live most and serve best. 8 S P Woi'ds cannot express the gratitude and affection we feel for each one of ou. We ho e to show our a reciation b followin our teachin faith- Y P PP Y g Y 8 fully, and proving by our future work that your efforts have not been in vain. Fellow students and class mates, we too, must say farewell. The friendships formed and the trials we have shared in common, have helped us to know and value one another. We say farewell, but through our work we shall always be united and interested in each other. I wish for you the fulfillment of all your fondest hopes, and a life of success and happiness. Miss McAfee, instructors and supervisors, fellow students and class- mates, we bid you farewell and carry on. -lVlART1-IA Roncisixs.

Don't they take away the fears, And stop the flow of hitter tears? All hail! These nurses kind, Who all the precious ti1ne, Are making sickness into health, And whose kindness hardships cannot melt. -fWritte11 by a 12-year-old patientj Page Fifty-two BREv1'rY IS THE soUL OF WIT,, 90 HUMOR VV True- Mabel, why don't you let your hair grow out?

Through these short years of joyful toil, You guided us, our minds, our hearts, and ways, Filled us with a burning love of progress, Showed us how much the copper and the silver weighs, Taught us to choose between the false things and the true, To have ideals, and strive to keep the goal, To seek, to hope, to ever climb o.n skyward, And span the evils that would soil our soul. We, for whom now your task is finished Can only bow our heads in -reverence and say, We hope we ne'er betray the trust you gave us And hope we'll make you proud of us some day.

When away from thee we find our paths are leading, We'll cherish thee, in memory forever more. Those short days with thee seem scarcely to have ended, We can hardly think that we must really go. Will you then remember us, and bless us? For we will always miss you, that you know. -URSULA KAY V'AN PATTEN '32, Page Fifty-five NKINDNESS IS WISDOM Page Fifty-sin: THE NURSE v v The world grows hetter year hy year, Because some nurse in her little sphere Puts on her apron, and smiles, and sings, And keeps on doing the same old things. Taking the temperature, giving the pills, To remedy manleind's numherless ills, Feeding the hahy, answering the hells, Being polite with a heart that rehels. Longing for home and all the while, Weariizg the same old professional smile, Blessing the new-horn hahe's first hreath, Closing the eyes that are still in death. Taking the hlame for the doctor's mistakes- Oh, dear, what a lot of patience it takes, Going of duty at seven 0'clock, Tired, discouraged, and ready to drop. But called back on special at seven-fifteen, With woe in her heart, hut it must not he seen 5 Morning and evening, and noon, and night, Inst doing it over, and hoping it's right.
