Graduating Exercises

The graduating exercises of the Brett hospital held in the Sanitarium Hall on the evening of June 22. The graduating class of 1916 consisted of Miss M. Joyce, Miss M. Svenson and Miss J. M. McLeod, all three nurses having passed their examinations with the highest honors. Lieut.-Governor Brett gave a splendid address and presented the diplomas, after which the Rev. Mr. Grant and Rev. Mr. Archibald spoke to the nurses wishing them all success and Godspeed. Miss Joyce had already received a very flattering offer in Lloydminster which she has accepted. Miss Svenson will leave at once for Canmore where she is to take charge of a hospital. Miss McLeod will return to her home for a brief holiday before taking up again the duties of her profession.
At the close of the graduating exercises a most enjoyable dance was held in the hall. All Banff was invited and all Banff enjoyed, refreshments being served in the evening in the dining-room of the Sanitarium hotel.
