MeXia, Texas, Jan. g. 1920.
Death to us is sorrow that gath
! ers around our souls as storms gath
around great mountains. but, like
| them they break the storm and purify
| the air. 1t sobers us and makes our
minds genial we come closer to our
| friends and the dead become dear
or to us. Just as stars shine out in
| the night so there are faces that
look at us not dred it too much IL
will help us to know positively, we
| are immortal
Just as it only at night that other
| worlds are to be seen shining in the
distance so it is in sorrow-a night
| of the soul-that we see the Earth
| daughters of Immortality.
The path of life meanders ttrou.;h
bright and J., beautiful eaut World a
friendship nourishcd by the gentle
! dews of sympathy and warm sun
| light of affection bloom in perennial
| beauty. But through this bright
| world there flows a stream who's
turbld waters cross and recross he
| path of every pilgrim. 1t is the
| stream of human suffering rs a rose
| tree is composed Of the sweetest flow
| "rs, and the sharpest thorns; as the
Heavens are sometimes overcast al
| ternately tempestuous and serene, So
| is the the life of man entangled with
| hopes and fears. joy and sorrow,
| pleasures and pain.
| God has called upon the people OF
MeXia and upon Dunbar High School
to feel and undergo q great sorrow,
pleasures and pain.

MeNia and upon Dunbar High choosl

row. He has required of us our be-
| loved co-worlier, Mrs. Price a woman
who was a CONSERVATION of morality
and religion. She was a priestess
| administering at the foundation of
| life Her heart was an alter-fire
where religion acquired strength to
go out on its mission of mercy. but,
| knowing that we shall see her and
| the king some day, we bow our heads
| to suffer the agony of this parting.
The memory of her shall live as
long as life lasts.
Farewell dear friend!
Yet not farewell where you are,
we too, shall dwell you are. gone
before our face a moments time, a
wonder why we wept; we will know
by wise love taught, that there is ali,
and, here is naught.
