Ihllwlnc the Procession, the chairman made his opening ad. dress. and 0h behalf of ‘the sister-g and staff of the hospital, offered e sincere and cordial welcome to all present. It was, he said,“ inspiring sight to see such a. isrge supporting audience. He also com. mended the splendid moral ma "film!!! swoon. that is always given so readily to the hospitals by the people of this Province.

Dr. MacMiiian congratulated the nurses on their reaching the end of a. successful training period, and wished them every success and hapblness for the future. He spoke of the new nurses‘ home which bu been built at the Prince Edward Island Hospital and the 119W Willi of the city Hospltc. which is now under construction; also of the skilled and competent staffs iiihospitais throughout the Province and of the care and treatment received by the pati- ents. In closing he spoke of the hard work and study the nurses their training period, and complimented the hospital staff and the por- Cllts. in contributing to the suc- cess of the graduates.

Following the chairman's ad. dress. a very pleasing vocal solo, "Perfect Day” was rendered by Miss Catherine Crabbe, accompan- ied by Mr. Austin Connolly, after which l-Iis Excellency Bishop Boyle uiade the formal presentation of diplomas to the nurses, "combined with the presentation of bouquets by MissvPhyilis Walsh.

After the completion of the presentations. a splendid address to the graduates y/l-s given by Dr. Frank MacMillan, and the follow- ing is the text of his address;

ADDRESS T0 GRADUNITS

The value of true Christian principles in the lives of every citi- zen of Canada was emphasized by Dr. I". A. Macmillan in addressing

the graduating nurses inst evening. _

Congratulating the graduates on passing this important milestone in their career, he warned that the journey ahead comprised "many steep hills and sharp des- ccnts, and here and there dan- gerous curves and perilous inter- sections." 'I‘bc problems to which he referred were something more than just the ordinary once cou- iiected with private and profes- sional life. I-lc recalled the omin- ous signals of another world con- fillet, and the moral obligation of every ‘Canadian to contribute cveryfliing in his and heir power to establish peace on s. permanent basis. ,

"How can we as individuals contribute to this obleotivef". Dr. MaoMlilan asked. "Let us reflect for a moment on the Hitler Youth

“Movement during the Nazi regime

m Germany, not from the point of view of whether its basic phil- osophy was right or wrong-we knowuit was wrong-but from the point of view of its effectiveness. In the short space of approxim- ately ten years this movement to fashion Germ-an youth in an athe- istlc and materialistic desim shook the world to such an ex- tent that we were plunged into a world conflict that we could very well have loot on many occasions except for that abstract thing we call ‘fate.’ But ‘right’ will always conquer over ‘wrong cud to me this last conflict with ail its mis- ery and suffering was meant to teach us Just that lesson.

One Sure Method

“A: a result there seems to be just om sure way to establish n true. and lasting peace, and that is by elicninating that which ii wrong and by concentrating on a movement designed to teach our youth only that which is right. In other words, speaking generally, we are allowing toobig a gap to exist between faith and science. We teach our youth more than we

ever have before how to make

a living, which is indeed much to our credit. but we teach them lit- tie or nothing on how to live in complete harmony with our fellow- men, which is equally important.

“We speak of religion and edu- cation as if they were separate and distinct entitles with no re- lotionship one to the other, when in truth religion is an actual part. or should be,» of any educational system. Faith and science always have and always will emanate from the some source, and why should we as God's creatures lt- tempt to divide these two sources of harneeseble energy which - He has given ‘us, when they were meant to go hand in hand in a world that is only _ a stepping stone to Eternity.

"Yes, we do indeed live in an ago oi scientific plethora but un- fortunately in an age (if-spiritual uremic, and until such time u we realise this fact and take the nee-

steps to hlve legislation

for the past nineteen years he has been. the President of that Staff. 1 can assure you that from the

tho hospital he has given untlr- ingiy and unselfishly of his time and energy to the advancement o! the hospital to its present position of a first class and up-to-date treatment centre.

“Under _his capable direction classes such as we have before us tonight are graduated yearly. classes that have always been of an outstanding calibre in the nursing profession. But his energy. which seems to be limitless, was not devoted only to his profession or to his hospital, it was spent. wherever the need arose in this community which he served so well, For his outstanding work in this community he has been twice honored in the past four years by two of the greatest reigning sov- ereigns in the world today. Four years ago His Majesty the Kind cf England honored him by mak- ing him an Officer of the British Empire. This year His Majesty the King of the Papal States, His Holi- ness the Pope. singularly honored him by making him a Knight Com- mander of the Order of St. Greg- ory the Great. I would like to take this opportunity publicly, on behalf of your medical staff. to offer you our hearty congratula-

I am also expressing the senti- ments of the board of directors. the board of management. the sisters and nursing staff of the Charlottetown Hospital."

Parents and Teachers

Addressing the graduates direct- ly, the speaker told them they had been particularly fortunate, "first because you have good parents, and second because you have had good teachers. Nothing has been spared to give you all the arma- ment you need to meet the oo- stacles in that chaotic world whose picture I tried to paint for you this evening. That armament could not have been elven to you except for the sacrifices of your parents and for the noble efforts to fulfill that sacred trust dele- gated by them to tho good sisters of the Charlottetown Hospital. To both of them you owe much in the way of gratitude. _ "A3 ii parting word to you I would caution you that as of to- night. you will be, so to speak, dual personalities. First you will b0 citizens, second you will be mem- bore cf a. truly noble and great profession. As citizens you will owe a duty, first to God to ‘live according to his Holy Law. Iecmd- ly to the Btlte to live According to its laws in so far as they are in conformity with the law of God. and thirdly to your neighbor to love him nnd to always be Claris- tian in your dealings with him To your profession you also owe s duty and I do no think that I could better cXlIrMl that duty than by repeating for you the words of your beloved founder, Florence Nightingflfl. in hdi’ col-t esnn pledge. \ "I solemnly pledge time! be- fore ‘God. and in the Prfllfllwl 01 this adorably:
