We Dedicate Our 194 -1948 ROSEMARY ZVONAR Sepkember I I, l93l Though many are called, the chosen few Shall know His gentle love, For God shall choose the children who May walk with Him above. 'Tis not for children of the earth Like us, to then deny The Father, all that golden mirth That lic her tender eyes. 'Tis not for us to keep from Him That all embracing smile That He has taken, not to dim, Butyjust to watch awhile. 'Tis not for us to keep her voice For mortals to admire, When such sweet voice was Heaven's choice' To join the angelic choir. January IZ, l9ll8 The inward sweetness found in her Encompassed all she met, And though the flood of tears may blur, The face we'll ne'er forget. O hear us, sweet companion, hear- Tihough life seemed but an hour, Each jeweled minute you were near Shall not die as the flower, But live with us in memories fond, While to dear God we pray That we may see that sweet beyond Where now you walk each day. And help us, then, to understand Somehow, why this must be, That Time must take from loving hands One young and sweet as she. J.M.L.

Belvi To The Memor WILLIAM LEE JACKSON November 2, l933 March Il, l9ll8 It was with a feeling of shock and grief that we learned of William s ttag1C death on the evening of March 11. William made a fine record as a freshman, and during his brief attendance at Belvidere High School his cheery disposition and pleasing ways earned him many friends who deeply mourn his loss. When death comes, all ordinary words fail us Alas for The stars Who hath The truth That Life And Love. him who never sees shine through cypress trees! not learned, in hours of faith to flesh and sense unknown, is ever lord of Death, can never lose its own.
