The social at the lone of Mr..

In Memory of Miss Grace Greenwood
As the closing days of the dying
year were fast fading away a beau
tlful life went out-the life Of one
on whom we had learned to look
with love and admiration - life
as pure as the freshness of the
morning. Death approached grasp
ing has cruel sickle aud her friends
saw that nothing could be done to
stay the ruthless stroke, and the
beautiful flower was cut down. We
viii always delight to think Of her
as one of our number who was a
faithful and earnest worker, al
ways ready tor anything which fell
to her lot. Graduating in 'a2 and
representing her class she vent
out from her society with the best
wishes of each member, and all
hoped that ere long she might re-
turn and join US again. But she
has gone TO the Great Beyond and
we haye only the pleasant remem
hrance of her sweet and pure life.
We extend our sympathies to the
bereaved friends sroun | the bro
ken home circle.
Resolved THAT it is just tok-
en- of our love and esteem that in
the departure of Miss Grace
Greenwood we mourn for one who
was in every way worthy of the
high regard in which she was held
by her society.
Resolved: That while she was
with US as an active member she
had the best interests of her socie-
ty at heart and when duty called
her she was always ready and will
ling to obey the voice.
Resolved: That she will ever be
remembered es one whose true and
beautiful character Is worthy to
be initiated by all who knew her.
Resolved: That copy of these
resolutions be sent to the bereav-
ed family and that copies be sent
the local papers for publication
and also be placed on the records
of the Philomathesn society O: the
Kirksville State Normal School.
