THE HELENA DAILY INDEPENDENT SUNDAY MORNING, MAY 27, 1923. Society GOALS By EDGAR A. GUEST. little braver, when the skies gray little stronger when the road seems long, little through more the of patience day, And not so quick to magnify a wrong. A little kinder, both of thought and deed, little, gentler with the old and weak, Swifter to sense another's pressing need, And not so fast the hurtful phrase to speak.

These are. my goals--not flung beyond my power, Not dreams of glory, beautiful but vain, Not the great heights where buds of genius flower, But simple splendors which I ought to gain. These I can do and be from day to day Along the humble pathway where I plod, So that at last when I am called away need not make apologies to God. TO PLACE is quite so lonely as that place whete people are not. It does seem as though every human with whom we come in contact has something for each of us if we will but take it.

You may quickly size up this person or that one and say that he isn't worth while. But you never know. w. The outward garment tells but little. Even the contour of the face conceals much that is hidden deeper.

Our stranger neighbor may some day become our best friend. And he whom you may wrongly judge today may tomorrow stand for you the staunchest. The truth is that in people- of all sorts lies the happiness for which our immortal souls most long. For from those of our own kind alone are we able to draw our r. richest rewards in association, in inspiration and understanding.

The more people you know and the more people you read about, the more you are prepared to battle your own life: through to a splendid finish. People are made up of but two geat divisions -the good and the bad. In neither division, however, is there true division for there is none of us wholly bad or wholly good. We are all both good and bad. So that it devolves upon 11S all to be charitable towards all others, that all others may be charitable toward us.

Get all the good you can from other people--and give all the good you to them. Overlook the faults and failures in other people. Look for their good and redeeming qualities. Peace and good will on earth is a matter of co-operation and forbearance- that is, giving the other fellow his due, and then working with him to make the world as a whole a better world. In many households of America there are certain sentimental dramas going on in advance of the approach of the month of roses -weddings, Daughter foregathers with her friends in the sanctuary that is her room and brings out various fluffy white and pink things for their inspection and admiration.

She is very busy girl, what with the shopping she does all morning and the long sessions with the dressmaker in the afternoon. Everybody jumps at her command, for she is an autocratic queen, and yet every one craves the privilege to serve her. "Is there anything I can do?" ma asks, as if her hands were not already full, to say nothing of her heart, which is full of such solemn joy as she has not felt since her own wedding day. "Dear me, how time flies!" ma sighs. "It seems only yesterday, pa that we were married." Dad puffs busily at his cigar to avoid being trapped in a sentimental expression.

"It's 22 years ago, and that's long time at that," he answers. length. In his heart there is a vague, unspoken resentment against the young man his daughter is to mar- ry. Her going is to be the first break in the family circle, and it's this young fellow who is taking her away! And ma, divining dad's thoughts, as she always does, says his brooding that way is just a sign of selfishness on his part. (Who knows why mothers are joyously philosophical when their daughters marry, and sad when their son's do the lame?) Well, daughter's young man at the house, and, until she comes down, he sits in the parlor with dad.

"Will you have a says dad. "So the wedding is a few days off, what? Well! Well! She's some girl! Some girl!" He has a lot more to say, but it simply won't come out. After all, it's dad and not the groom who is the hero of the great American drama that is called the June wedding. With the budding leaves and blooming flowers comes the sweet strains of the wedding march and all these spring and summer charming young brides during, will be the center of attraction.

They were Miss Emma T. Strate, Miss Evangeline Letellier, Miss Ruth Kenyon, and Miss Julia Green. Addresses to the graduates were made by Dr. B. V.

McCabe, and the Reverend Doctor N. C. Hoff of Mount St. Charles college. Maintain Noble Traditions.

Dr. McCabe traced the progress of the nursing profession from the fourth century and emphasized the need of well-trained nurses today. Service was the keynote of his address. "As you stand here tonight, it is a looking back," said the doctor in part. "It is a a looking back over your years of study and training, not, that you might amend them, but to close the curtain on student days, to take, your place in that great white army of nurses who have enlisted under the Master's banner of mercy, to go out into the world to keep His spirit alive, and to carry againshe disease great and woman's death on crusade the field of nursing service.

You are to carry on, and to hand down, the traditions of the great white army, pure and noble and sacred as they have been transmitted to you by your teaching faculty in the nurses training school of John's hospital, that they who are marching on behind you may reflect your purity, your nobility, and your devotion to the great cause in whose service you are engaged." Dr. Hoff built his talk around the three points religion, science and service. "Religion and science can be friends because they have been friends," said the doctor. "Members of different churches have had an honorable part in the making of medical science. As Dr.

John B. Murphy of Chicago, a Catholic, was the founder of the college of surgeons, so Dr. S. N. Davis, a Protestant, was the founder of the American medical association.

Just as religion and science can be friends, so the medical profession and the nursing profession receive their greatest inspiration from their greatest friend, religion. The service of the christian is never a work of condescension, since Christ has taught that whatever we do to the least of His bretheren is done unto Him. Thus is human work dignified by divine acceptance." After the exercises a dance was held in hospital hall in honor of the graduates. recital.
