With the passing of Miss Wilhelmina J. Stalker, Melrose High School has lost a willing servant and devoted friend. Long a member of the faculty in the department of Latin, she was esteemed and loved by her col- leagues, admired and respected by her stud- ents. Staunch in her conviction and resolute in the pursuit of justice and fair dealing, she quietly fulfilled her obligations with a compet- ence and impartiality which bespoke her com- plete integrity. Though retiring by nature, she was supremely self-reliant; and her gal- lant fortitude and steadfast devotion to duty will remain a monument to her memory. The simplicity of her way was in keeping with her ideals of the good life, ideals which will al- ways stand as a challenge to all who knew her for fine and courageous living.
