i i gf.: 1 Zin gHHmnn1fiam TO CATHERINE As when day is done And the 'mother soothes The weary babe on her breast, To dwell in his Garden of Rest. As a lone star- Sinks into Heaven's blue arc Awaiting the coming of dawn The pure light flickered- Then silently passed Into the Great Valley Beyond! QD 9 Z 45 CATHERINE BROWN Catherine was born July 5, 1916, in Decatur, Indiana. She had always attended the Decatur schools, and would have been a senior in the Decatur High School this year had not her life terminated on September 9, 1934. She Was associated with various organizations in the high school and took an active part in the activities of the First Evangelical Church, of Decatur. When Catherine died, the senior class lost a quiet, lovable classmate, one Whose willing cooperation makes itself felt now that she is no longer here. We miss her!
