ShH gave convincing evidence of the
power that comes from unselflshness
and affectionate devotion to a cause.
She had that rare strength which
comes only from purpose sure
and so lofty that it is beyond doubt or
question that it can welcome with
open mind the comment and the crit
1ciSm of those whose ways are differ
ent- With the passing of the years

barriers. She had a keen interest in
all children of pre-school age. and in
her endeavor to further the interest
of this work she was most ardent.
her life was the eXemplification OF a
true and noble character and in her
