Agnes Stone Memorial.
At the alumni re-union Thurmlny
evening of last week, Miss Dorothy
Sutter read the following memorial In
honor of Miss Agnes Stone, a member
of the Alumni Association, who died in
June of lant year:
"Life Is a checkered scene. It Is well
represented by transitions In nature.
The bright sunshine Is emblematic of
days of prosperity, when gladness fills
the soul and the spirit Is buoyant and
tuneful as the birds singing their morn
ing song.
"The dark clouds and heavy laden skies
are emblems of physical pain, of mental
depression, of days when friends dio
and prosperity files, when hopo droops
and our faith Is Btretehed to its utmost.
But the storm will not lust forever;
neither will our affliction. Tho shad
ows will pass away and the clear sun
shine will brighten and bless the land
scape. Afflictions are more common than
we think; and 'os'-h heart knoweth its
own bitterness,' but behind the agency,
whatevor It may be, thore Is a heart
that throbs with tenderness, and a di
recting mind Infinite In wisdom. How
beautiful and tender were his words of
Inspiration, 'Lo I am with you always.'
"Hut during our most prosperous per
iods of life there sometimes come clouds
of adversity which, for the time being,
hides from our sight tho bright orb of
day.
"Such an occasion has arista find
plunged us Into sorrow and grief, fo.
from our midst has been removed ono
who was just standing on tho vergo of a
happy life, one who was just emerging
from tho joyous spring into the tran
quil summerof life, ono whoso 1 i fo was
given for the happiness and welfare of
others, but 'To live in hearts wo leavo
behind is not to die.' Our sinter, friend
and ulussmato, Agnos Annie Stono, old
est daughtor of Mr. and Mrs. W. S.
Stone, was born in London, November
2fl, 1877, and peacefully departed this
Ufa June 25, 11)00, after a year's Illness
from consumption. Having lived In
Reynoldsvllle a number of years she at
tended the public schools and graduated
from tho High School In the class of '08.
She was a bright and diligent student,
exceedingly fond of literature, music
and painting, and when hor health per
mitted bIio devoted much of hor tlmo to
the latter art, a true lover of nature.
Agnos had a sweet disposition and as a
conscquonco horfrlends wore numerous,
as sho was always ready to make ex
cuses for the short coming of any of hor
friends and acquaintances. Sho was a
dovout christian, a momber of tho Bap
tist church, H. Y. P. U. and Sunday
school. Truly tho world has lost a no
blo character.
"Death seems cruel and relontloss as
he touches hore and there tho rarest
flowors with his seemingly cold and Icy
fingers, but Judge him not harshly dear
friends,
"Woi'ii nut for dentil, 'Hi lint n fever Milled,
A imln upireed, n fear lit rext,
A milemn hoix fiiltlllcrl,
ThetniHin neiuimon the nliimtinrlng deep
In eHn:ely ciiluier, whyforn weep? "
"For as nature prescribes a boundary
to all other things, so does sho also to
llfo."
