In Memory MISS HELEN REVETT Miss Revert and Her Two Adopted Sons Her devotion to duty was her first thought always. Coupled with this, or the reverse side of duty, was her love for humanity which gave her moral strength to keep Working long after her physical strength was gone. Every child in the public schools was her trust. Never did she feel that her day's work was done until every call for every sick child in town was answered. She Worked with every charitable organization, every hospital and every doctor to get medical aid for all chil- dren who needed such care. lt was often discouraging work but she kept on because she believed in the joy and happi- ness that goes with good health. Her life was a success for she brought new courage and faith to hundreds of young people and their parents. Mary Louise Smith
