A frieze dedicated to tho memory OF
Central students who gave their lives

for by the alumni Of the school, Is

training.
The idea Of erecting this tribute
was originated by Emory NJ. Wilson,
former principal Of Central. After
his death. It was suggested that the
frteze be made as a memorial to him.

Association took 1t over and decided
to make 1t war memorial.
The original panels were done by
the famous painter. Edwin Abbey,
and may be seen at the Boston Public
Library. The reproductions at Cen

originals. OF the five. the picture of
the infancy of Sir Galahad is most
striking. The angel of the grail,
clothed in pure white. appears to the
infant Galahad, holding the Holy
Grail. which Is covered with red
samite. The background of this paint
ing is celtic blue tapestry covered
with gold-embroidered lions and pea.

ing Mr.. Wilson's idea, Will be finished
