With a COMPOSITE Trophy.

With a Composite Trophy.
Mrs. F.. M. Van. Cleve Of $40 Fourth
street Sc was recently presented with
made from two Journal high
school medals, which appear to have
been we'll adapted for the purpose, for
they make a handsome token. The
buckle was a gift from Ray and Re
becca Van Cleve, who won the medals
by their scholarship in the East high
school.
Ray was valedictorian for the class
Of 1901, and Rebecca for the class of
1903. The idea of converting the med
ais, which are of solid gold, into
clasp was conceived by the young peo-
pie themselves. A goldsmith did the
work, and the opportunity for pre-
senting the novel gift came on their
mothers birthday last week. The de-.
sign Of the medals has not been i'm
paired and they are still valuable as
trophies.
