Jin Hlrmnriam With the passing of Miss Ethel Atkins, River- dale feels a sorrow which reflects all the devotion she had poured into our school life. Although Miss Atkins had retired from teach- ing some months before her death, boys who have felt the enlightenment of her instruc- tion are in every class of the school and are scattered throughout the world. Of this we are sure: Riverdale is a finer school because of the influence Miss Atkins exerted while she was here, and now that she is no longer with us save in spirit, we feel that knowing her has been of inestimable value.
