Miss Agnes Elliott, in whose menior}- these lines are written, lived among us not merely as an admired teacher but as a alued friend. Her sympathetic nature always soug ' ht out those who were in especial need of help and wdiile she was faithful to the claims of her particular work she found time for those many little kindnesses which most leave undone or despise . Because of her long- connection with tlie school first as a student, and afterwards as teacher, her high ideals impressed upon successive classes have become in a sense a permanent possession of the Normal School. No characteris- tic of this beautiful life was more marked than the intense in- terest, amounting to positive enthusiasm, which she showed in the various activities of the school. The intellectual work of her own classes was always valuable and interesting but she gave enthusiastic support to everything that advanced the well being of the student body at large. No social activity was ever planned without Miss Elliott ' s advice and assistance and no social gathering seemed complete without her presence. During the last year with us, though Miss Elliott was hardly able to perform her regular duties there was no abatement of her intense efiforts to make the Los Angeles Normal School a place of high intellectual standards, of social good cheer, and of moral earnestness. Blessing she was. God made her so. John Wasson, born August 20th. 1933, died January 16th, 1909. 0 ur State Normal School experienced a sad loss in the death of its Senior trustee and those connected with the school felt a personal bereavement when this kind and loya! friend was taken from them. Mr. Wasson, during his long life had filled many public offices of trust and in every community in wdiich he lived left the impress of his strong individuality. He was born in Wayne County, Ohio, but spent much of his life in the far Western States. Mr. W asson touched life at many points. He was at dif- ferent periods, teacher, miner, farmer, editor and surveyor. At the time of his death he was editor of the Pomona Times. His life was marked by its purity of purpose and untiring zeal in everv undertaking.
