Army Professor of Military Science ana' Tactics United States Naval Academy t TO THE MEMORY OF MISS PAYNE Suddenly on Friday, October 14, 1938, Miss Payne, one of our heloved teachers, left us. Although we have missed her greatly, we realize now that she is happier in heaven than she could ever be on earth. This verse seems to express this thought rather adequately: A wise old Sage in truth once said, Our loss is heaven's gain, She is just away, no, donlt say dead, For her eternal life is just ahead. I-Ier sweet disposition and ever-ready smile will linger in the heart of many students of Washington-Lee High School. For her splendid work in the Science Department of our school, she will long remain an ideal, as a teacher and as a friend. Miss Payne was horn in Covingtnn, Virginia, where she spent the major part of her life. She graduated from the Covington I-ligh School in the clafs of 1928, and then for two years attended Randolph-Macon. Two years later she graduated from the Harrisonburg State Teacher's College. In 1932 she received her Master's Degree at the University of Virginia. The following year she was employed as a teacher at Wasliington-Lee I-Iigh School. It was with profound regret that Alexandria residents, the faculty and students of Washington-Lee 1-ligh School learned of her departure. '14
