IN NIENIORIANI X, Gordon O. Johnson On Wednesday, September 8, came the news of the sudden and untimely death of Gordon O. Johnson, SHS art instructor. With that news came a feeling of great loss to all members of the faculty and the student body, for this man had become close to them in his 24 years of association with the school. Through Mr. Johnson's hearty enthusiasm for education, adult classes were started and a. shop department was developed. From the beginning of his teaching career, he showed amazing ability to interest his pupils in mechanical drawing, handicrafts, and general shop. Mr. Johnson was a man of strong will-strong enough to carry out the projects which he believed useful to the Shortridge cur- riculum. Through his understanding and patience, his pupils aspired to great achievements, as was proven when many of them ranked high in national competition. The loss which came with the death of this man always will be felt, and Shortridge long will remember the kindliness, enthusiasm, loyalty, and sincerity of Gordon O. Johnson. 18
