Mer! auf . . . Mr. Davey as he was during his first year as principal in 1925. ,711 Appreciation . . Sam Davey was loved by all because of his unfailing friendliness. In these days of hurry and speed, it is refreshing to meet and know such a man. We miss him today because of his gentleness, his kindness, and In the death of Sam Davey, Eau Claire lost one of its greatest friends of youth. Nothing that pretoined to their welfare was beyond the scope of his interest and concern. His love for youth and his faith in youth prompted a life of earnest service to youth. REV. HENRY FRIEDMAN Minister, Lake Street Methodist Church. It was my privilege to have known Sam G. Davey for over twenty-five years. He was a man of superior ability, of genuine integrity, of unquestioned leadership and most especially with a great abiding love for people. He will be sorely missed in educational circles in Wisconsin. The schools and students of Eau Claire will need to continue their high accom- plishments in his memory and accomplishments are to be properly revered. G. E. WATSON State Superintendent of Public Instruction AM G. IIA EY He gave his life to his fellow men To follow the Golden Rule Till the Master called the teacher To serve in the Larger School. his interest in his fellow human beings. These are the human traits that really count, after all. W4 R. DAVIES President, Eau Claire State Teachers College Friend or foe, student or truant, civic leader or transgressor of the law-there was no person in whom Sam G. Davey could not find more 9005 'hm' bod-H oAvio BARNES Principal, Eau Claire Senior High School We're proud of our new Sam G. Davey Memorial elemementary school. Life's work is over, The toiler's hands are stilled, Begins at last the greater work The Father's Heart has willed. The unsmitted cheek lies turned and cold, The guiding vision gone, But the light he left keeps shining bright To beckon his followers on. Blessed are those who lived to know This true and loving friend, But twice blessed is he who lived his life, A Christian teacher to the end. In Memorium - Sam G. Davey
