Glass Qbituary Died, on May 24th, 1939, in the fourth year of its age, the Senior class of the Tigard High School, from a rush of information to the head. The funeral services will be held in the Auditorium on May 26, and all friends are requested to attend, bearing flowers and gifts. The death of this class, although not sudden, is still a shock to the entire community particularly to the faculty, who had thought it might linger for another year. The loss of this class will be deeply felt in the community and it will be difficult to assem- ble another with so much public spirit and power of accomplishment. A great class has gone from us, and we mourn its passing consoling ourselves with this thought, He whom the Gods love dies while young. glass Epitaph Here lie the good Seniors whose genius was such We scarcely can blame it or praise it too muchg VVho, born for distinction, perfected their mind And, fraught with all learning, gave joy to mankind. They were equal to all things, for nothing unfit, They were pleased with their culture and proud of their Wit. They are missed by their class mates, their teachers as well, Who their virtues and wisdom now tearfully tell. Then in peace may they lie, our good Seniors, who now Have taken their finals and made their last bow. 20
