scented a picture of the late Rev. Mr..
Henry L. Bunstein to the high
school. The picture is finished in
French gray. 1t is placed in
frame which harmonizes with the
color. Rollie Baker, the president
of the class, said in presenting the
picture: 1--WE, the Seniors, realize
that we have been more fortunate
than those who come after us, be-
cause we have had the influence
and guidance of one who is no
longer with us. His memory will
not soon die out of this school. We
feel that his pictured face will lend
to our assembly hint of what his
presence used to bring us, and so
we, the class of 1928, present this
picture to the Milford School"
