Hllvmnrial Page ELMO GILLEN Member of Murray High's First Graduating Class Born Feb. 1, 1899 Died Dec. 5, 1918 While in Our Country's Service. What if he does not come?,' you sayg Well, then, my sky will be more grayg But through the clouds the sun will shine And vital memories be mine. God's test of manhood is, I know, Not, will he come-but did he go? -Northwestern Christian Advocate. MELBA WATTS Born Jan. 10, 1902 Died Jan. 11, 1919 I never stand above the bier and see The seal of death set on some well-loved face But that I think-One more to welcomeme When I shall cross the intervening space Between this land, and that one Over There: One more to make the strange Beyond seem fair, And so to me there is no sting to death. And so the grave has lost its victory. It is but crossing, with suspended breath And white, set face, a little strip of sea, To find the loved ones on the other Shore. More beautiful, more precious than before. -Ella Wheeler Wilcox. VERNA GORDON Born Nov. 1, 1904 Died Mar. 26, 1919 455 Green be the turf above thee, Friend of my better days! None knew thee but to love thee, Nor named thee but to praise. lfVhen hearts whose truth was proven, Like thine are laid in earth, There should a wreath be woven, To tell the world their worth. -A S I1OI1

3 QD111' Ahnvrtiavr,-5 Of course you've mused, or will muse, over the pages of this Year Book again and again, but have you really read the ads carefully. If you haven't do so now. The people who have advertised with us are Murray High's best friends. They are the ones who have made this issue possible and therefore deserve our support. l The appearance of a spider in a copy of this paper is a sign of neither good nor badaluckg that intelligent insect is merely studying our columns in order to ascertain whether any store in the neighbor- hood has failed to advertise in our paper, in order that he might make for that establishment and there weave a web across the doorway, where he might dwell in undisturbed peacef'-Mark Twain.

'XVe of the Murray High School are more than proud of our Art Department. which is under the supervision of the artist, I. F. Russon. The scope of his instruction is very broad, taking in practical design and the fine arts. Practical design, a knowledge of arrangement and interior decor- ation, is made a pleasant and interesting study to the students of the Junior High School classes. The hne arts are encouraged in the high school classes. This is one of the most popular courses offered by the school and it is the most fruitful. There is hardly a home in this community that has not one of our pictures on its walls, showing the wide influence of this department. It aims to make visible all the beauties of life and nature, and to give a wider appreciation of the beauties and truths given to us by the works of our fellow men. It is a course worth While, and a course pleasing to the students. The high ideals of these classes help us to be more useful and more sympathetic with life than ever before. CQ?
