IN lVlElVlUl1llllVl Saw - 1 f e 15 14 N' -:-2.-.XX.: Iolin C. Wiggs, instructor at Harri- son since 1912, passed away sud- denly February 22, 1939. He was born at Galion, Ohio, September 2, 1881, was graduated from Ohio Wesleyan University, and taught at Howe, Western and Morgan Park Military Schools before he came to Harrison. For more than a quarter of a cen- tury he carried on for Harrison. He never missed on account of illness. Where his duty or program called, you would always find him. Now, we miss his friendship and associa- tion. We miss his quiet manner, his pleasant countenance and his dig- nified manner. IOHN C. WIGGS Associates of Miss O'Sullivan take satisfaction in expressing their appreciation of a friend having the 9 gracious manner, kindly spirit and patience pos- sessed by their co-worker. They regret her too short life. Because she had already exhibited at the Art lnstitute for one of her paintings, her friends had hoped she would regain her health and con- tinue to contribute her share in the field of art. MARY T.
