In Mem0riam.

The sad and sudden death of Miss
Lima Tidwen on August 10, 1912, was a
great shock to her family and to a wide
circle of friends. She had been in fail
ing health for many months, but no one
dreamed the end was SO near. Appar-
entity we'll on Monday, discharging her
usual household duties, on Tuesday
many hearts were saddened, many eyes
grew dim with tears over the news,
"Miss Lima Tidwell is dead"
Most sadly will she be missed in the
home, where her greatest happiness was
found; but her kindness of heart was
not restricted to the precincts of her
home, and her loss will be felt by wide
circle of friends, regardless of caste or
color, for
"None knew her but to love her,
None named her but to praise"
From whatever standpoint her life and
character are viewed it ELECTS admira-
ton. She was fond and loving duagh-
ter, devoted sister, a loyal friend.
l loved her livingI mourn her dead.
God grant that in that Gland that is
fairer than day. may meet and greet
her again.
To her heart-stricken mother, sisters
and brothers I would tender my deepest
sympathy in this, their great loss, and
pray God to comfort them in their hour
of deep grief.
Her remains were inferred in the Red
River Cemetery, where many beautiful
floral offerings and the large concourse
of friends attending showed the love and
esteem in which she was held.
"Farewell, dear friend;
leave you now to sleep at rest
It'll the Resurrection Day."
One WHO LOVED HER.

While the Quaker football authorities
appreciate the honor that has been con.

made It clear that such a schedule was

be too many hard games. and the team
could not do themselves justice In any
