Today, the vials still contain perfume, and Mure' said, "it still emits odor, a flowery smell." While viewers can't smell the perfume due to its fragile nature, they can see them, Mure1 said. Mure' said another relic of interest belonged to Howard Irwin, a sheet of music entitled, "My Dear." Invin stayed out too late the night before boarding, and consequently never made it aboard. His music case with his instrument and music did, however. The sheet music was protected by the leather case, and still displays its lines of notes. Salsbery said bank notes, a porthole window; socks, coins, a shoe brush, a metal chandelier and a leather bag containing tools are a few more of the revealing artifacts that viewers can consume with their eyes to sense the people behind them. "The clash of technology and ignorance won't allow Titanic to remain just a ship that sank. People want to solve the mystery," she said. -storee.powell@aggiemail. usu.edu > apisino Suunod s,j| uaq* U3A3 J3A\od 3uiddois ajqi -pajour qi|A\ no* MOM ||JM sa^fciq osip SUIZBUIB aqj •sn|j apis jaqio aqi uAop paads puB squnp q3noj d\y\ov\ o] paau noA 3UUEBS aqj sjajjo qorqM 'uraij aAUp poods-\>z AiiBAnJjyoucuiiqs SuryiqsofDinb aqi 3AO| ii,no^ apu noA'aiaqM jajieui ou pjiuoD reioi JOJ )JJOJ uoisuadsns J3iiu;ds qsnjd B pire aureij tunu -goOZ, 8ui|pireq*|WMS B sjseoq 00£ 31!1V* Exhibit celebrates 97th anniversary of Titanic By STOREE POWELL staff writer the use is widespread and Utah ranks first in the nation for online pornography purchases.
