MEMORIAL TABLET TO BE
n PRESENTED TO THE
~ SCHOOLS

"a C
Alumni Association in the High School
Auditorium last Wednesday evening, it
was decided to have a banquet at the
Hotel Adelphi-W itte on Thursday, June
10th. The guests of honor will be the
Senior Class Of nineteen twenty-one.
Probably the most important business
attended to during the meeting was the
arranging of the program for the presen'
tation of the bronze tablet to the school
on Decoration Day. This tablet is given
by the Byron Pennington Croker Post
of the American Legion and the Alumni
Association to the schools. 1t has on it
the names of every person who was
ever connected in any way with any OF
the schools in Wildwood who served in
the World War. The following is the
program of the ceremony of presentation,
which will take place in the High School
Auditorium at eleven in the morning on
Decoration Day:
Singing-"America."
Presentation of bronze memorial tab
let-H. Foster Coslin, President OF Wild
wood High School Alumni Association.
Acceptance of tablet-Edwin M. John
son, ST., President of the Wildwood
Board of Education.
Address. "Patriotism"-Rev. Norman
V. Sargent, Chaplain of Byron Penning-
ton Croker Post of the American Legion.
Singing-"Star Spangled Banner"
The tablet is approximately thirty-six
by twenty-four inches. AT the top is an
eagle, rampant, holding two American
flags in its claws. Under the eagle is a
battle scene. In the top panel is the fol-
lowing dedication:
Erected by the Wildwood High School
Alumni Association and the Wildwood
Board of Education in Honor OF Ihose
of Our Schools Who Enlisted for Service
at the Call of Their Country During the
World War-l9l4-l918."
Then follows the list of names. At the
bottom is a panel reading:
sThese Gallant Men of Our Armed
Forces Have Fought for the Ideals Which
They Knew to be the Ideals of Their
Country Woodrow Wilson, 1913.
A great effort was made, by means
of advertising and inquiries, to have a
complete list of all who were ever con-
nected with any school in Wildwood who
served. After the tablet was cast some
one brought word that a boy named Har-
rison, who once went to school in Wild
wood, had been in the service.

the tablet:
