Miss Moore It was in the long vacation that Miss Moore died. She had completed the year ' s task and was entering, quietly and happily, on the summer ' s rest, when she was called to the longer quiet and rest of death. Our minds accepted the fact. We said ' ' Miss Moore is dead. We spoke of the loss which she would be to the school and of how much we should miss her. We accepted her death intellectually. But emotionally we did not accept it. It seemed that, whatever we might say, the thing itself was impossible. As far back as we could remember Miss Moore had been a part of Burlington High School. And an essential and, it seemed, an indispensable part. It is seldom indeed that the same teacher can know the members of her present class and at the same time remember the doings of their fathers and mothers. But that was Miss Moore ' s almost unique experience. She had witnessed the growth of the school, from the little group which used to assemble on one floor of the present Junior High School building, through the change into the present more commodious quarters, and to the overcrowding of the larger building. She had known many principals. She had at her command the traditions of the school through long periods of years. It was to her that we all turned when any question arose depending for its answer on the things that had been. And she was a very pillar and stay in the administration of the school. In one sense. Miss Moore was a lonely woman not from the lack of many friends, but because there were few immediate relatives, and almost none in the city itself. Her central interest was the school. She made it her life and she entered into its life so deeply that, once again, it seemed as if she must be a part of it, if it were to go on. It is well that the world does somehow till the gaps which women like Miss Moore leave at their departure. Another race hath been, and other palms are won. Four years hence there will be no pupil in the school who can remember Miss Moore as a teacher. But there are very many who have carried into life the impress of her teach- ing and character, and these will not soon forget.
