3111 illllvmnrium St1ew gladness on. the paths of men 'You will not pass this way againf' -Sam Walter Foss. Mr. Gilbert himself is gone, but his spirit, his good works pass this way again and again, for Lincoln was his school. He lived for it and for the students, he knew every nook and cranny as well as he knew the palms of his hands, for he helped plan and supervise the building of Lincoln High. He watched when the first stone and the last stone were put in place, and the spirit of all things which he wanted for Lincoln hovers and broods over our daily lives in the classrooms and corridors. Born in Cedarburg in 1878, Mr. Gilbert came to Milwaukee as a young man and took his high school training at East Division High School. In 1897 he was graduated from Milwaukee State Teachers' Col- lege, and in 1919 received his bachelor of arts degree from the University of Wisconsin. He continued with his work at the Uni' versity and was given his master of arts degree in 1925. In this same year he was also appointed principal of Lincoln High School. He was a member of the honorary education fraternity, the Phi Delta Kappa, Schoolmaster's Club, and the National Education Assof ciationg he was also the former secretary of the University of Wisf consin W Club. His interests were many and varied-sports, music, literature, science, education, art. Much of the artistic decoration of our school building is owing to Mr. Gilbert's appreciation of the beautiful. He was a good friend. There was never a problem too great or too small for his attention. He always listened. He wa-s never too busy-never too busy for us, for we were Lincoln High School, his school.
