jf t -sf' 3 , DALE P. NVILLIAMS g 7F we Morton's man of ideas was Dale P. Williams, for 24 years dynamic teacher of physics in his fourth floor domain. He had unique ideas for the class' room, a multitude of ideas for teacher welfare, inf teresting and entertaining ideas for his home and family, and practical ideas for his community. He contributed much time and effort to the Morton Community Chest, Faculty Mutual Insurance, facf ulty cooperative buying, serving on his Community Park Board, helping with the Boy Scouts, and in working for the improvement of school and city playgrounds. D. P. was always hurryingg he wanted things to move, perhaps his multitude of interests demanded it. ,He liked people, and people enjoyed his company. A. R. M. n lwemaaicam ESKIL E. JOHNSON Mr. Johnson has gone from usg and all of us, young and old, grieve for his passing. It is a satis' faction to remember that while he was with us, we loved and valued him. We reveled in his humor, impish but never barbed, gay, spilling over on every' body. And the years never seemed to age him or take away any of the zest. He lived and died- young. Mr. johnson had an job to do, at first as teacher and later as both teacher and dean. He did it su' perbly, setting us all a pace and an ideal. He cared what happened to people, listened to their problems with patience and sympathy. His keen mind and his warm human interest were at their service. And now that the brisk step and the light heart are gone from Morton, thousands of us are remember' ing how Johnnie would have done it and not remembering in vain. G. W.
