3n ilemoriam p. K. YONGE E. L. Wartmann In the death of Dr. P. K. Yonge and of Dr. E. L. Wartmann Florida lost two of its finest and noblest citizens. The number of their friends is legion and I know that those who knew them best hold this friendship as one of the choicest treasures of their memory. Dr. Yonge was a member of the Board of Control for nearly twenty-five years and was chairman of the Board for nearly twenty years. Doctor Wart- mann was chairman of the joint committee of the House and Senate in 1905 which had charge of the Buckman Bill which established tlie present in- stitutions of higher learning in Florida, and was a member of the Board of Control for a little more than twenty-one years. The service that these two men have given to Florida is a valuable part of the history of the State. Tlieir fine sense of honor, their lovable character, their fine spirit of good will, and their never-failing creative interest in the finer life of the spirit have been a fun- damental contributing influence toward placing the institutions of higher learn- ing of Florida in the front line with the best. Political and personal favorit- ism or prejudice was foreign to them; they were always looking for the best and nothing but the best. They held that the institutions of higher learning were created to be builders of life. They gave their time and their energy to this great work with a cheerfulness and a good will that was inspiring, and they found this work as easy and as light as the yoke and the burden that Jesus spoke of when he gave to his followers tlie Light of Life. BY EDWARD CONRADI JosiAH Bethea Game The college suffered a great loss in the death of Josiah Bethea Game on March 4, 1935. Dr. Game, who was professor of General Literature and Ar- chaeology, had been a member of the faculty of Florida State College for Women for twenty-one years. He had received the degrees of B. A., M. S., M. A., Ph. D., Litt. D., and was a member of the Classical Association of the Midwest and South, the Medieval Academy of America, Phi Beta Kappa, Phi Kappa Phi, and Eta Sigma Phi. Because of the beauty and strength of his character his passing is mourned by faculty and students.

3n Jiflemormm J. B. Game Death, be not proud, though some have called thee Mighty and dreadful, for thou are not so; For those whom thou thinkest thou dost overthrow Die not, poor Death; nor yet canst thou kill me. From rest and sleep, which but thy picture be. Much pleasure ; then from thee much more must flow ; And soonest our best men with thee do go — Rest of their bones and souls delivery; Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings and desperate men, And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell And better than thy stroke. Why dwellest thou then? One short sleep past, we wake eternally, And death shall be no more ; Death thou shalt die. John Donne.
