b

Mr.

reflected
upon
Uie
meaning
and
significance
of
a
diploma
such
as
each
member
of
the
graduating
class
waa
about
to
receive.
Its
presentation
marked
the
end
of
one
era
and
the
beginning
of
another
in
the
career
of
the
young
nurse.
With
the
diploma
would
always
be
attached
recollections
of
three
years
of
learning,
work,
discipline
as
well
as
happy
associations.
The
diploma
might
be
considered
as
a
token
of
accomplish
ment
and
qualification
to
render-
a
definite
servlct
to
mankind.
The
speaker
dilated
upon
the
meaning
of
service,
especially
as

and
true
