Never a sigh for the cares that she bore for me, Never a thought of the joys that flew by; Her one regret that she couldn't do more for me,
Thoughtless and selfish, her master was I. Oh, the long nights that she came to my call to me,
Oh, the soft touch of her hands on my brow! Oh, the long years that she gave up her all to me!
Oh, how I yearn for her gentleness now!
Slave to her baby! Yes, that was the way of her, Counting her greatest of services small:
Words cannot tell what this old heart would say of her, Mother-the sweetest and fairest of all.

San By Th

Of Th
e
R_o
ad
There's a quaint little house by the side of theroad;
To lengthen the span of life;
For the young and the old; who enter therein, To seek for more health by new strife. You'll find this San away out West; Where things that are healthy never cease. Where a soul and a body are forever at peace; Where that forsaken home can rest with ease. There are heartless souls that enter therein, Apart from self content;
There are friends like stars that dwell apart: Over periods of many a lent.
You can see from the San by the side of the road, Down the smooth highway of life:
Those who have come and those who have gone, With the gift (a new outlook on life).
That's what we do in this little San, Where the atmosphere lacks nothing grand: Where each little one is treated right, Given faith and courage to endure the fight.
1 ts a place where nothing's imitation \1/hen it comes to T. B. chasin'. For within those towering walls, Aside those long drawn halls, There floats in great abundance Fresh air and sunshine. With her banner aloft:-She faces the South,
To catch the vital rays of the sun: And as those bugs make their escape She catches them one by one.
To her lofty height comes cooling breezes. Refreshing air, that never ceases.
From afar comes the voice of a bird, Soft and melodious as it is heard. Each one doing his little part,
To enlighten and cheer each heavy heart. There's a lovely house yonder on that road. And its called Ole Methodist San.
And to us its rhe dearest and best That God ever gave to man.
-Contagion
When you hear a nurse or doctor Talking about such things As Klebs Loeffler Bacillus, Which old Diphtheria brings: When some little child is coughing, Till he's nearly choked to deaLh.And Bordet Gengou Bacillus is going at its best, That's when you hear about "Contagion." When a body gets up early,
With his head in one big roar,
And everything about him seems to be a bore; \Vhen you are all a peelin' on your hands and
feet;
And your upset stomach Lelis you There's not a need to eat;
\Vhen your throaL' s all sore and achin' And your once white skin is bakin'; \Vhen you see a rose red rash,
Then your doctor says you better dash To Contagion.
---When you wake up in the morning, Where everything is white;
And all the things about you arcn·L sittin' jusL right:
When the people are a washin' And a touchin' here and there. With the greatest of precautions As if something· s in the air.
Where every body enterin' wears the funniesL sort of gown,
As if he were an ancestor of some prehisLoric clown.

The older we grow, the better we know That friendship's the thing worth while:
That nothing so cheers, Or drives away tears, As a faithful friend's warm smile.
For pleasure will jade, and memory will fade, And we become bent and gray;
But still all along Our friendship's old song Grows dearer day by day.
And down thru the years, 'mid laughter and tc.1rs. We think of our friends more and more.
As often we've done So now, one by one, We count them o'er and o'er.
So here is a lay to the friends of our day, Who have helped to make living sweet:
And stronger will grow That friendship, till, lo!
In heaven the chain's complete.

en
A nurse in uniform went up co heaven
J use as the clock was striking eleven.
Sc. Peter met her there at the gate;
The first thing be said was, '"Nurse, you're lace.
Ac ten o'clock sharp you' re supposed to b~ 1n,
So you had better tell me just where you have been."
The nurse said, "'Sc. Peter, lee me peek in,
If I like it I'll cell you where I've been, I'm not sure chis is where I should come, If its not, I'll go and surely keep mum." St. Peter frowned but nodded his head, Saying, "All right, but remember these
peo-ple are dead."
So then he slowly opened the door, And the nurse stepped in on the shining
floor.
Dr. Hanford met her face co face, Saying, "This is a Gall bladder case, Start proccoclysis-soda, pint one, See chat the drainage may freely run.
Morphine one-sixth, p. r. n. I'll be here in the evening again." They were standing in line one by one. Dr. Winternitz said, "Let's have this dre
s~-ing done."
Dr. Vanderhoof was next in line,
He said, "My patient's getting along fine, Ear irrigations morning and night For a week or so and he'll be all right." ''Hot stupes constantly," said Dr. Knowles "He'll win the fight, rightly fought." The next in line was Dr. Hartwell Saying. "Paint his leg with iodine well
For I'm going to operate
[n the morning at half past eight." Dr. Liddle was writing his orders down
For Mrs. Percival Archibald Brown." "Tepid sponge b. i. d.
Rx whenever necessary."
·'Take this ointment," said Dr. Boyd, "'Rub it well on my patient's foot."
And there were Drs. McClanahan and
Haney
All they wanted was babies, babies, babies! "Push water,·• wrote Dr. Bancroft's pen. And Dr. McCrossin quoth a loud "Amen." There was Dr. Timmons
Standing close beside St. Peter. "Soda enema just before noon, She can have a steak co chew soon." Also Dr. Kectelkamp, the tonsil man Writing his orders as fast as he can. "Put an ice collar around his neck, With fluids only his stomach bedeck." Behind him stood Dr. Campbell Asking his patients how they feel; Orders Galen hypos every day, Says they' II help chem in every way.
And there was Dr. Brobeck
Saying, "Let"s put in the eye and cake out the pack."
Also four-Drs. Gillett, Hill. Beeson, Shivers and George, his son,
Putting formalin solution on the sore Says they' II be well forevermore. "S. S. enema," said Dr. Morrison
And there behind him stood Dr. Goodson.
The nurse threw up her hands in despair And said, "Sc. Peter, give me air, If this is what will greet my face
Then lee me have the other place. All my life, now I have striven To find a right hand place in heaven. Why did you let all the doctors in, As tho they never committed a sin? With the same old orders, the same old

'32
'Twas Lhc second of September in '29
Ah. the memories, which 'round that date twine:
Twenty-nine of us. strangers all
Gathered together. heeding life's call.
Soon it was. we became organized
And as a class. we were recognized. Facing three monLhs of humble work
Which none of us even dared to shirk. And what. with activities and studies too
We found that our time fairly flew.
Meanwhile we had our initiaLion
\Vhen some of us thought of resignation. At the end of three months, our caps we won,
But found our careers had just begun
Then soon from Freshman days we parted And into our Junior year we started.
Here we found much stiffer studies
But we conquered them all. this group of buddies.
Then the date was set, regardless of weather \Vhen the Juniors and Seniors banded together
And in hiking clothes. were off to the hills
To enjoy a day of fun and thrills. Then back to the Inn. our way we wended
As darkness came and the day ended.
We gathered then in the banquet hall
And enjoyed a dinner, spread for us all.
Some of our group had quit the game.
The remainder stayed, new ones came.
Then Mrs. Gilmore, our sponsor and friend
Was suddenly brought to her journey's end;
Our ties of fellowship were hard to sever,
But to reach her ideal. will be our endeavor.
---Soon we were Seniors. proud 'Lis true
And we found more responsible work LO do. For that fall brought the thrill, biggest of all
When first we wore our black bands down the
hall.
Three months in Denver in affiliation
Were quite an advance in our education. And now is Commencement. the greatest event,
To which ever thought and heart beat is lent.
Friendships we've made, true and sLrong, That will last. we hope, all our life long.
One ambition before us li
es-To get OUf R. N., that coveLed prize.
Now as we draw oh, so near,
To the end of this our Senior year,
We feel indebted to all of those
Who helped us to cover the path we chose. There are our doctors and those in authority,
All to whom we owe great senioriLy. And our parents who are glad to share
Any difficulty we must bear.
When our three years training is finally o'er And we turn our backs on the training school
door
May our torch of sympathy continue to burn, And into bigger fields, our footsteps turn: That to some needy one we may render
Real nursing service with care that's tender.
Let us all through life, remember that health
Surpasses the value of all worldly wealth.
And when our work on Earth is done And our course in Heaven is jusL begun, We'll be proud to hear an angel tell
We cared for him- back there in Beth-El.
Class

To Beth-El we came in numbers. To be an R. N. was our dream. Thirty eager, anxious Probies; learned things are not as they seem.
Histories? Who'd have guessed it? The many things they want to know, Stripping all the family skeletons; leaving every rib to show.
That physical! We dreamed about it! Wond'ring what dread things they'd find
A shy maiden couldn't bear it. One-way ticket-Midland Line. Uniforms, so hard to fasten. Alarms that cruelly rang at five.
How we hurried-how we scurried. At chapel on time to arrive.
Then there was that course of Ethics, Hygiene, Dietetics, Anatomy
Bacteriology, Drugs and Solutions, Materia Medica, Chemistry.
Initiation? Somehow the details, seEm to sort of slip my mind
-When I felt those icy waters. chasing up and down my spine.
But it must have been amusing, to all concerned, so we"ve been told
'Cept to we poor frightened victims. Wond'ring- Would that ··safety"' hold?
So we learned of germs and microbes. Timidly we glanced about.
Memorized blue prints for each duty before we ever tried 'em out. If a doctor deigned to see us; In black shoes, we quaked in frighL
Oft times they didn't do as Hoyle said. How could we get answers right? Rapidly we turned the pages of the calendar on the wall.
Aches, disillusion, homesickitis-Shortened response to roll call.
Came the day, December second. Letter perfect, we'd learned our vow.
That to wear the cap we might be privileged, We really looked like nurses now,
So we grew in nerve and knowledge. Sh! A bit abour the waist line too. Carefully we watched our Seniors. Could we, too, learn all they know? Good days, bad days and indifferent. 0. R., '"graveyard shift" and San.
Sometimes tears, more often laughter as we greeted each day's end.
In the Springtime, very early. Eleven more would join our band. The eleven, now but seven; with 'Thirty Three they take their stand.
Summer nights-Did we enjoy 'em? Pictures, tennis, picnics, then
One rule very hard to swallow. Gosh it's tough. Be in at ten!
Came Autumn. With the first tang; Basket Ball. Gang, fall in line! Did we beat the Probies? Seniors? Cup's on the mantel. See it shine?
Dark days, too, have cast their shadow, on the class of 'Thirty Three.
Name after name adds to the "Black List". Charge? Call it "Personality".
P. R. N.-A. C. and P. C. S. 0. S. q. h. and stat.
T. I. D.-A. M. and P. M. Juniors always on "the mat".
There was-don't you remember? And that other time when
we-I wrote a fascinating story. But 'twas marked '"censored"! Goodness me!
Success in
Nursing
It isn't the type of patient
Or the money he can pay;
lt isn't all the nursing care
That makes the patient gay.
It isn' L all the doctor
Or the nurses as a whole.
But the everlasting team work Of every single soul.
So let us all as nurses, Each do her very best;
And when we have done our duty Then to God will leave the rest.
Probies
Where did you come from, Probie dear? Out of the nowhere into the here. WhP.re did you get those cuffs of blue?
Out of the sky as I came through. Where did you gee that little tear? I found it waiting when I came here.
What makes your forehead so puckered and drawn? The knowledge was there, but now gone.
\Vhat makes your cheeks like a warm, red rose? I was scolded more than anyone knows.
Where did you get those red arms and hands? From scrubbing utility room and stands. What makes your head so slick and bare?
The lack of time compels us to wear.
\Vhy step aside for all seniors to pass? A tip from Miss Smith to each little lass. But how did you come to us, you dear?
The fame of Beth-El brought us here.

NURSES' HOME
Class of
1934
On a bleak September morning, the first day of the month, there appeared at
the training school door twenty-nine girls, who were welcomed as Probationers
by Miss Smith.
Fully aware of our insignificance and our black stockings we awaited with
great anticipation the coming of the day when we could no longer be the babies
of the train:ng school.
After four months of class and demonstration work under the able
super-vision of Miss Darlington and Mrs. Shanstrom, came our initiation by the Juniors.
Before the court of High Justice sentences were received and punishment fitting
the crime was administered.
Then before an audience of upper classmen. supervisors and friends, to the
twenty-three remaining girls came the great event of the Capping Exercises. As
the Seniors presented us with our cap and stripe we were filled with a higher
am-bition to live up Lo our ideal of service and a great happiness. How proud we
were Lo go on duty in full uniform.
With the election of officers, planning class activities, and doing floor duty
the days passed most rapidly for us. We were delighted to have several of our
members make the first Learn in Basketball. Several of our members are in the
Glee Club and were proud to have them take the trip to Chicago.
At last came the time we entertained the Training School at a Washington
Birthday party. We were glad to have this opportunity of showing our
appre-- appre-- appre-- appre-- appre-- appre-- ~iation for the good times our upper classmen had shown us.
As with eager hearts and willing hands we go about our daily tasks, each
triving to become more like our "Ideals".

s Outlook_ on Lif
e
We would we were Seniors Seniors so tall and wide,
Like those who slowly pace the hall With sedate Senior stride.
It must be grand and glorious, A Senior great to be
And have three stripes upon your cuff For everyone to see.
You hardly notice Probies Tho Probies they've all been. But I supose they slighted were When they at first came in.
So we will hope and pray and work, And try in every way
And maybe we shall reach the goal As Seniors, too, some day.
An Anatomical Adventure
It was a fine day in summer. Bili Rubin and Beli Verdin closed up the Ol -factory Center and invited their lady friends, Dura and Pia Mater, to accompany them to the Islands of Langerhans to bear the Great Trochanter speak on the
Navel question. P'soas to get there quickly they sailed down the Alimentary Canal
to McBerney's Point in a Blood Vessel.
On the way down Bili Rubin tried to make Dura Mater believe she was Cut-is Vera, but in Vein. She told him he had too much Nerve and to be
care-ful or the Recurrent Tibia would swamp them. They went from the Alimentary
Canal into the Hunters Canal. Pia Mater was reading a very Humerus book en-titled "The Trail of the Lonesome Spine," by Hormonia. Beli Verdin remarked that he was very green at sailing but was not as yellow as Bili Rubin.
At the end of the Hunters Canal they left the Vessel in the hands of Artery, to get some Col-on board. They crossed the Islands of Langerhans on foot, via
the Pons Varoli. Within a Radius of half a mile they could see a flock of Ducts.
the Thoracic Duct, the Common Bile Duct, and the Pancreatic Duct floating on
the Peristaltic Waves. On reaching the Islands lunch was served in the valley of
Acctabulum, away from the rays of the Solar Plexus. Here were served Liver,
Sweetbreads, cold Shoulder, baked spare Ribs, hot Tongue on Platelets with
Wharton's Jelly and the White Substance of Schwamn with Heart Beat salad.
After lunch Bili Rubin strolled off to get some of Adam's Apples, while the
rest of the Body picked berries in Peyer· s Patches. They thought they heard the
Vertebrae and the Eyeball and were much afraid. However, after taking Glisson·s Capsule they become quite Sternum. The noise, they learned was music from the
Pouparts Band, marching along the Linea Alba to meet the Great Trochanter.
who was coming to the Islands of Langerhans in a Lymph Vessel propelled by
the Oculi Motor.
The Great Trochanter, having pointed out the Vas Deferens between the
two Navel Policies, told about his Tryps-in Pectoralis Minor with Sartorius. He
told about the Purin Bodies found in the Pyramids near the Malpighe's regions
and the Temple built during the reign of Gluteus Maximus. The proceedings
were much interrupted by Rolando and Sylvius, Fissures by trade, who had been
down to the Glenoid, a tough Joint, and gotten stewed.
Some of the people rode Bronchi up and down the Pyramidal tracts while
ochers watched the Ce-cum in on the shore. The children, however, enjoyed the
Cytes, Lympho and Leuco, and made their Pa-tella story to them. After con -sulting the Auricles of the Heart they all went home.
At present Bili Verdin is in the Central Acini cells breaking Gallstones for insulting the Great Omentum. Alas! Alas! Poor Bili Rubin! He Tryps-in the
Olfactory and loses his toes. It must be terrible to Lactose.-Selected.

At Children's
As if we didn't have enough
Of childish woes, right here. \Ve have Lo spend at "Children's",
Part of our Senior year.
Up there we stand from dawn Lo dark,
Charting baby cases,
Or pinning slippery diapers, And washing dirty faces.
How we do work the diaLhermy
When Lhey have a cough,
Oh how Lhe musLard plasters burn And how they'd pull'em off!
Those heathen never slept a wink, They hardly closed their eyes, And when the quiet hour was o'er
The ceilings seemed to rise. At Home again, and hoping ne'er
A child to see for months,
We hear, "Please hurry to third East, They need you there at once."

-Farewell
We have walked to our work by the pale star's light,
Or the first faint flush of dawn. And now its over, we're looking back. Over the seeming endless track,
Sometimes golden and sometimes black, To the turning point of the way.
We have walked to our work by the pale star's light,
Or the first faint flush of dawn;
Three years of our youth! But we've done our part.
We gained a more understanding heart,
A deeper knowledge, a woman's art,
