VL emoriam ALTA MAE BHINK Miss Brink was everyone's friend. To know her was to love her. In the three short years she served as Shawnee-Mission's librarian, her cheerful smile and kindly word helped students and teachers alike. During the months of intense suffering, Miss Brink's concern was for her unfinished work at school. Her conscientious loyalty to a task once started drove her to completion of the task. She loved life and Wanted to live. Her indom- itable courage and zeal will forever be an in- spiration to us, her friends, whom she has left behind. ALTA MAE BRINK Died December 18, 1946 THE HUMAN TIIUIIH 'Tis the human touch in this world that counts, The touch of your hand and mine, Which means far more to the fainting heart Than shelter and bread and wine 5 For shelter is gone when the night is o'er, And bread lasts only a day, But the touch of the ham! and the sound of the voice Sing on in the soul alway.
