In Memoriam MISS DAVENPORT To live a life that is rich and deep and full is one of the noblest aspirations of man. Miss Davenport was one of the few persons who has been able to attain that goal. She lived a life of service to little children. She set them an example of love, and kindness, and happiness. Her class room was always a busy room, but a happy room. For over forty years she was happy in her work. Her pupils meant everything to her, and they never for¬ got her kindness. She was an inspiration to her fellow teachers, and they became better teachers because of her influence. Her thirty years of work in Franklin School is evidence enough of how highly esteemed she was by patrons and school officials alike. Miss Dav¬ enport has gone to her reward. It should be a good reward, for she lived a rich and deep and full life.
