End of a Nurses' Day
Seven O'clockI And the nurses work
was done for another day
She heaved a sort of tired sigh
and put the charts away
Then sat for a moment and bowed her head
over the little white desk
"I wonder," said she to herself, “after
all, Am I really doing my best?”
“Perhaps I could have begun the day
with a brlther, cheerier smile.
And answered the bells with ‘Ri^t away'
instead of ‘After while’
And I might have listened with sweeter
grace to the story of Six's Woes',
She may be suffering, perhaps,
more than anyone knows.
And I might have refrained from a
halfway frown,
Although I was busy then,
When the frail little girl with sad
blue eyes kept ringing again and again.
And I might have spoken a kindlier word
to the heart of that restless boy.
And stopped a moment to help him find
the missing part of his toy.
“Or perhaps the patient in El^teen A
Just needed a gentle touch;
There are lots of things I mi^t have done.
And it wouldn't have taken much."
She sigjied again, and brushed a tear.
Then whispered, praying low,
“My God, how can you accept this day.
When it has been lacking so?"
And God looked down and heard the sl^;
He saw that shining tear;
Then sent his Ang^l Messenger
To whisper in her ear
“You could have done better today.
But, ohi The omnipotent one.
Seeing your faults does not forget
The beautiful things you have done."
He knows, little nurse, that you love your work
In this house of pain and sorrow.
So gladly forgives the lack of today,
For you will do better tomorrow."
The nurse looked up with a grateful smile.
“Tomorrow I'll make it rigjit"
Then added a note in the order book
“Be good to them tonl^t."

Waller's Wisdom
by Dean of Student*
The Dean of Students' Office
is invariably striving to im
prove the services offered to
Wayne Community College stu
dents.
New activities are being
sponsored and we encourage
you to take advantage of them.
If these activities are suc
cessful, we will continue hav
ing them. To participate, ev
ery student should take an ac
tive interest in the activities-
not simply a vocal interest.
Students, Wayne Community
College is your school. What
you make of it depends upon
you. There is no limit to the
accomplishments that can be
made by you and Wayne Com
munity College. The establish
ment of a student newspaper is
a perfect example of the ac
complishments being made al
ready. Support the Wayne Com
munity College by servingonits
staff or by contributing worth
while material.
Likewide, we invite you to
come by the J)ean of Students'
Office and offer any suggestions
you feel may benefit the stu
dents and the college- If you
have any criticisms concern
ing the college, please don't
hesitate to let us know.
We have made a fine start
this school year, and with your
help, we will continue in this
manner.

of the Board of Directors of

the handling of the approved
SGA budget. He also praised
the students for their interest
in activities ofthe college, such
as sports programs, student
union drive and the many other
activities that the students of

tice on Galn-Carlo Menotti's

Visitors". The characters are:

son as King Melchoir; David
Dannehl as King Kasper; and
Ashley Mosley of Goldsboro
High school as the Page. Every
one Is hard at work trying to
get their performance “down
pat".
“Amahl" is an opera about
shepherds, a shepherdess and
a small boy who gives of him
self and in return reaps the
happiness of life.
Officers of the Chorus have
recently been elected. Eddie
Hawley will serve as presi
dent; Fran Da.vis, s.vjrelary;
and Martha Pate, treasurer.
If You Can't Drive It,
Park It
Thomas Paine once said
“These are the time that try
men's souls," and I know he was
speaking of the student parking
lot at 8:00 a. m. It gets in
creasingly harder for a student
to find parking spaces. When
found, you are in the prime po
sition of being caught for im
proper parking—which takes
the form of being over the yel
low line, parking in a restrict
ed area, backing into the space
or in general, being in the ri^t
place at the wrong time. Not
only that, but chances are that
your position is so far from
the bidlding that it takes a flat
10 m.lnutes to make it to class.
A portion of the lot is not pav
ed and creates pure havoc In
foul weather. What ever hap
pened to the interest of the
student?"
The faculty has problems too.
There are more misdemeanors
to be seen in the faculty and
staff lots than all three of the
student lots combined. Espe
cially in the form of Improper
position or parking over the
yellow line. The traffic signal
here is “HELP!"
Perhaps the remedy would be
diagonal parking for the student
lot, and a new lot for the faculty.
With the expansion of the cam
pus, the student number grows
too and additional facilities are
needed for parking. Why not
pay for a little prevention now
rather than wait later for the
price of being cured.
Student Handbooks
Student Handbooks are avail
able In the Dean of Students’
Office. If you do not have one,
come by and pick one up.
Rehabilitation Aide
The Rehabilitation Aide
class began April 14, 1969, and

area.
One of the programs parti
cipated in was the Fores! ry
Club Rodeo in which the class
won two trophies; the rolling
pin throw and the skillet throw.
A prize was also won in bak
ing.
Money was raised for the
Student Union by having a pastry
sale.
During May, the Mental
Health month, posters were
made for the corridor to em
phasize some of the things be
ing studied. This was a chance
to let the pa'oUc knw
more about the National Men
tal Health Association.
The students have traveled
to different places to observe
and to place applications.Some
of the places visited were the
Alcoholic and Rehabilitation
Centers In Greenville, Doro
thea Dix In Raleigh, Caswell’s
