'llll flD6l110l'iLlm The friends and fellow students of Sharlene Travis, who would have been a senior this year, were deeply grieved by her death last fall. To know Sharlene was to admire and love her brave and cheerful manner. In memory of Sharlene Travis, the classmate whom we all loved, we dedicate Longfellow's beautiful The Reaper and the Flowers. THE REAPER AND THE FLOWERS There is a Reaper, whose name is Death, And, with his sickle keen, He reaps the bearded grain at a breath, And the flowers that grow between. I Shall I have naught that is fair? saith he: Have naught but the bearded grain? Though the breath of these flowers is sweet to me, I will give them all back again. He gazed at the flowers with tearful eyes, He kissed their drooping leaves: It was for the Lord of Paradise He bound them in his sheaves. My Lord has need of these flowerets gay, The Reaper said, and smiled: Dear tokens of the earth are they, Here He was once a child. They shall all bloom in fields of light, Transplanted by my care, And saints, upon their garments white, These sacred blossoms wear. And the mother gave, in tears and pain, The flowers she most did loveg She knew she should find them all again In the fields of light above. O, not in cruelty, not in wrath, The Reaper came that dayg 'Twas an angel visited the .green earth, And took the flowers away. .T..i.0,-li Before we had an opportunity to become fully acquainted with the beginning students in Winterset High School this year we were saddened by the loss of one of our freshman girls-Neva Cummins. Although we regret that she cannot ex- perience with us the happiness of our high school days, we may find comfort in the thought that Neva -Cummins has found a greater serenity and happiness in God's heavenly Training School. To her sister, Doris, and other members of her family we extend our deepest sympathy. 18
