and followed as the fundamentalist
leader to the city where he had been
the respected democratic chieftain. the
congressman and the secretary of state,
the kaleidoscope change of scenes
carried the mortal remains of the COM
moner.
Just as in life, he had thrown aside
the political cloak for the raiment of
the religious leader, in death the body
passed from the scenes of his last
fight for fundamentalism to those Of
his earlier political strife.
In Dayton a loving tribute was paid
the fundamentals chief by the defend
ers of the faith bred in them by God
fearing forebears of the Southland.
Here he received the homage of the
hills, rendered in the simple fashion of
those who dwell among them.

Elects Officers and
Plans Marini Dinner

Although only about twenty per cent
of it's members were present at the
meeting held Tuesday evening in the
auditorium of the high school, the
Cliffside High Alumni Association got
splendid start towards it's reorgani-
zation. Each of the ten classes had
two or more representatives attendant.
With the exception of the incoming
class the class of twenty-three had the
largest number of members present.
The election of officers for the en-
suing year was the most important
business transacted at the annual
meeting, to which the entire organiza-
ton may attend and vote. The other
meetings are composed only of the
officers and the executive board.
The newly elected officers are:
President, Albert Stein, '23; vice pres
ident, Robert Cadien, Jr., '16; secre-
tary, Albert Eyrich, %; and treasurer,
Cecilia Mccarthy, '21. The executive
board consists of Valentine FRANKIE,

Van Dusen, '21; Albert Hirsch, 20;
hdlUIyu hCCdiIuy ~, Iouio iNoip
'23; Elizabeth Paulson, %; Edna

Plans were suggested by Robert
Cadien, '16, that a testimonial dinner
be given by the association to one of
it's most distinguished members, Mayor
Joseph A. Marini. The mayor is a
member of the class of 1916 and while
at school participated in many of the
business activities of the school. Not

part in scholastic life by managing
several of the varsity teams, and
