The Well Loved Faces of Yesterday
Insurance companies have it all
figured out. In a group of a hun
dred men of similar age and habits,
just so many are likely to be left
at a later age, and just so many
less at a still later age, until finally
but a fe.w survive. As the years in
crease, the pace of disappearance
accelerate, and I have had occasion
in recent months to refer too often
in this column to the increasing
frequency of the calls of the grim
reaper. Thus it is the inevitable
experience of people to see their
comrades of other days, falling
abont them; the group contracting;
time taking its relentless toll. If
they are wise, the survivors form
new friendships. But the melan
choly experience is still there, oi’
missing, at intervals, at ever-short
ening intervals, the well-loved faces
of yesterday.
It is true that those who go leave
.. ever 'behind them a memory that
compensates in some degree, even
if it be in a small degree, for the
actual physical presence which is
no longer here. How vivid and
sweet some of these’ memories are.
Only in part are they memories ot
greatness. They are most precious
because they are memories of good
ness, of kindness, of thoughtfulness
for others, of bright flashes of re
partee, of song and story, of hap
piness. These are |the hallowed
memories of triue friendship.
A memory of that sort will some
times intrude upon a man’s business
day, a welcome intrusion which
leaves its own blessing upon him.
A scene long past will flash once
more upon the silvei’ screen of his
recollection. A long, silent voice
will be heard. And the memory of
someone else’s unselfishness will
find its echoes in his own heart, to
reawaken and reinspire his own im- (
pulses for good.
Those like Herman Scherbarth,
who passed away one year ago on
October 24th; Dan Alaclsaac, Chas.
Eilber, Henry Eilber, Richard Hill,
Charles Roeszler, Jacob Holtzmann,
Fred Haist, Herman Beaver and a
host of others, who have gone into
the Beyond, have left something of
themselves behind, and it is no exag
geration to say that the influence
of every man, however humble, does
something to reshape the wortd, or
at least the corner of it in which he
lives, and that influence does not
die with him. No one can say on
what far shore will end the ripples
which passing by of even the least
of men must set in motion upon the
river of life.
