As Major Christopherson, new head of the Salt 'ake City health department has expressed it, the disease is not taken from the school to the home but is rather taken from' the home to the K'hool and the school with observant teachers, assisted and supported by icient health officers, is in a better Position to check an epidemic than any other agency.

They say that voice is still, And closed those eyes whose look of love Has found its way into the hearts of all Those girls whom those looks did re prove. "My Girls!" How many a mind re calls How sweet her face as in her class she stood, Shedding her sweet influence the while Surely we all must say, "Her work was good." "My Girls!" A very mother to them all. Giving good counsel with each measured rule. Teaching them lessons of the 'Master Mind," Along with other lessons of the school. How many girls throughout these homes of ours, As through their daily tasks they plod along, not feel happier when a thought of "Her" Comes to them as they think of all she's done? In many homes her influence is given, as in the time of As much alive school. When we were sitting in her busy classes, Learning to do each piece by well-srule. Sweet second mother unto all "Her Girls," Oh! that we ln her footsteps might be found, Trying to emulate her good example A noble woman of pure mind and sound. She is not dead in each of us there llveth A part of her who taught us lessons true. Can she be dead and yet have life within A thousand hearts and minds of truest blue? No! "Sister Day" will live in many homesteads, For characters like hers can never die; Although they say from this earth she's departed And they've put her body in Mother Earth to lie, We'll miss her, yes, but yet we cannot sorrow But must rejoice and hold our thoughts as pearls; That we have had so wonderful a blessing To be called by her in that sweet voice, "My Girls."
