3n Jfflemortam In the death of Mrs. Anna B. Millikin, one of the founders of the James Millikin University, a life broad in its interests and unse lfish in its aims was brought to a peaceful close. She with her hus- band, though unostentatious in manner of life and quiet in demeanor, planned magnificently for the young people of their land, daring to launch an enterprise of almost unlimited scope and of be- wildering detail. They thought in terms of years and generations, of the well-being and efficiency of thousands, of the succeeding circles of endeavor and achievement that widen ever into the Highest Good for Mankind. From the first vague desire and plan for this great gift, Mrs. Millikin was her hus- band ' s confidante and was equally anxious with him for the carrying out of their plans in the highest possible degree of perfection. To his broad and deep planning she brought her purposeful zeal and her personal interest which made for the effective completeness of the whole. At the end of his life, she added to her own burden of interest the further- ance of those ideals which she held as sacred as his memory, and throughout the four lonely years, kept up her unflagging co-operation with the projects of the Board of Managers, with the ideals of the faculty, and the interests of the student life. Never even in hours of weakness and ill health, did she lose sight of the vision which she and her husband had glimpsed — the vision of Human Service. Her associates in the University, while they mourn a great loss, praise God for the victorious completion of a life, broad in purpose, careful in performance, and triumphant in achievement. For all the saints who from their labors rest Thy name, O Jesus, be forever blest.
