And also becomes an RN in 1918.

I posted the auction for her 1911 Hackensack High School diploma and yearbook a couple of days ago, and now she's taking the next big step in her life.

In one of the photos, it appears that someone is being operated on in a room near two open windows. There are a lot more photos with the auction, but I can only post 10 here.
