An Appreciation Jessie L. Girdy was born August 19th 1886 and died March 14th 1915 having iived 28 years, 6 months and 25 days. She was born at Syracuse, schooled at Syracuse, reared to the fullness of young womanhood at Syracuse, and, excepting a few brief periods during the past few seasons while employed at her chosen life work, al! the rest of her life was lived at Syracuse. Whatever we are really in character and purpose is positively reflected from our daily lives. The little things of look and word and < eed are observed and stored in the memories of associates and neighbors and the aggregate of such leavand doings make the measure of character. Our own estimate of ourselves does not always coincide with that of our as sociates, but we can depend upon their'having our true measure. Jessie Gordy lived in the full light which shines on all who live in a small community. Her school days were all spent in the Syracuse Schools. From Primary to High School she had a high record for cheerful obedience, punctuality and industry. Among her classmates and teachers she was a favored, one because of her cheerful disposition and genial unselfish attitude toward the innocent social activities which help to fill out the school life. Old and young and the very young knew her. She was a girl whom old and young greeted in a friendly familiar way upon the street because her disposition was such as to invite friendliness and respectful

familiarity. There was nothing of the pride about her. Candor, openmindedness and blunt, rugged, ■ young womanaood shone forth from her daily life to the lasting good ol all who came within the sphere of i her influence. | She was a dutiful daughter, the joy of the household in a home where the ties are dear and strong. ■ Her self reliance and independent I spirit made her find congenial work 1 away from her home town where opportunities for self reliant girls are so restricted. Among the s: rangers with whom she worke 1, > she quickly became known at hei true worth, a straight forward, s eady, splendid chan cur. What more may be said in sum- ; ming up the short life of a yout g ■ girl whose activities were confined to her home, her school, and iur work? To be known as a chaste, amiable, candid, open-m nded, industrious girl is a life achievement denied to many. To be loved by school mates and associates in the world of work and endeavor is a mark of true worth; and to be deeply mourned by the whole community, as is Jessie Gordy, bespeaks the people’s appreciation of her beautiful character. It is needless for .the Journal to say that the parents, brothers and friends have, in their great bereavement, the tender sympathy of all our people. A surprise was given Mrs. Frank Younce, last Thursday evening, in honor of her birthday. Thirty-six were present and a taffy pulling was enjoyed. She received a number of useful presents.
