Miss Anthony died May 1 at age 91. We have lost one of the vivid figures of our Mavahi days. Few could enliven an assembly like Miss Anthony, roaring in with an arm-load of books. Throughout the auditorium, silent prayers were uttered, "Please God, don't let it be my locker that was raided!" With a dramatic flair, she chastised the miscreants who dared to keep a library book past the due date. That was great entertainment, combined with a lesson in drama and civics. She was a talented lady who devoted her long life to education and volunteer activities.
Please post your memories of Miss Anthony. |
