IN MEMORIAM OF ALEX MIDDLEMIST When, at 12:40 P. M., Sunday, May 30, 1926, Alexander Dayton Middlemist passed quietly away into the Great Hereafter, Brush High School and our community at large lost a young man whose sincerity of purpose, manliness of character, and loyalty to high ideals was a constant inspiration to all. At commencement time, when Alex was to have graduated, lit- tle did we think hut that his lion-hearted courage would bring him back from the door of Death. Long months of suffering however, had left his mortal body in a pitifully emaciated condition so that when the urgent call came the body itself failed a princely spirit and our schoolmate answered the call of his Maker. Alex typified much that was characteristic of the very finest type of young American manhood. The approaching years seemed to loom large for this boy and his hopes to make good among men. It seemed to us a great career ended just as the bud had opened just enough to glimpse the beauty within. Grief stricken we were when the word came of his passing away. And with a deep-seated feeling of sadness do we now recall our friend. As on that after- noon, when, amid the sorrowing of many, we gathered near to hear the mortal remains consigned to the place from whence it came, so do we still in spirit commune with his spirit from whence comes the inspiration and courage to be bigger, better men and women for his having lived among us. ‘7 1 the name of Jesus every knee shall horn—those in heaven and those that are on earth.”
