To the Alumni and Friends of the
Normal School:

Normal School:
Everyone who has known Walter
Hewett Cheeyer, whether as a col
league, student, or personal friend
feels that something should be done to
honor ms memory IN 4 suitable man
ner. He occupied a unique position in
the state. As instructor in the normal
school and institute conductor in the
STATE he probably met and knew per
sonaIiy more teachers than any one
other person; and ne never conducted
an institute without leaving his i'm
preston upon the community.
Inasmuch as Mr.. Cheever's heart
was with the students, perhaps the
most suitable memorial is one that will
keep him in their minds forever
Hence it has been suggested that
Memorial Fund be established, the in
tcreSt acCruing from that fund to be
used annually for the recognition Of
merit in some senior student, or stu
dents. His name thus will live, and
his influence be an increasing force for
good through long periods yet to come
You are hereby invited to contri-
butte to this fund. We hope to have
all accounts checked up by May the
first, so the fund can be put into op-
Grafton this year. A prompt response
will be appreciated.
Very sincerely yours,
Emma J. Gardner, Pres
