MARY HICKERNELL, A.B. Latin Mrs. Hiclrernell came to us in our Junior year. With her we visited the Roman forum and listened to those mighty orations of Cicero. Then in our Senor year, we traveled with her from Troy to Sicily and Carthage and thence to Latium over the same route taken by Aeneas a short time pre- vious. Mrs. Hickernell is loved and admired by everyone in High School. Her sweet, gentle dis- position has been an inspiration to all her pupils. 1 H. T. O. BLUE, A.B. History We thought no good could come out of Kenton, but she has furnished us with a principal who has now guided our good Ship of State fl-ligh Schooll through two voyages on the Sea of Education with a masterly hand. He seems to have an inlinite capacity for work and is the personiftcation of Patience. Mr. Blue never attempted to drive, but always endeavored to lead. He is frank, consid- erate and exceedingly fair. Mr. Blue has the highest respect and good wishes of every Senior. 9 RUTH SOUDER, AB. English One of the most pleasing sights for the Seniors this year has been the exceedingly tall and familiar Hgure of Miss Souder Heating about the Senior room, or seated at the little table whispering con- fidentially to Mr. Elliott. Her love for .fun and sunny disposition has won her'many friends in High School. Miss Souder is something less than seven feet tall and exceedingly slender-but cheer up, Miss Souder, for 'ieven a hair may cast its shadow. ,

WiLL1AM A. STAGE, B.Sc. Superintendent of Schools, Ada, Ohio American History and Civics The Seniors will long rememl'er Mr. Stage as their in- structor of American History. He will he particularly re- membered for several things, namely, his apparent slowness to see his own joke, his inability -to call the students by their prop- er names, his diminutive chin, and his exquisite grace of motion. Mr. Stage is kind, frank, generous and exceedingly earnest, and as an interesting and instructive teacher he is scarcely to he surpassed. It has been a source of both pleasure and profit to the Seniors -to have come under his influence.

Howann D. HARVEY Mathematics This is Mr. Harvey's lirst year in A. H. S. and only a few of the Seniors have been in his classes. However, as he was on the morning relief as senti- nel in the Senior Room his shining countenance is familiar to all of us. We will especially remem- ber Mr. Harvey for his beautiful bushy hair. Mr. Harvey is a well-informed and well-educated teacher in every sense 'of the word, and is held in the highest respect by every Senior. FLOYD M. E1.1.1o1'r, B.Sc., Pl1.B. K Science Mr. Elliott has been closely associated with the Seniors this year, which we think has been to his sorrow. It is true, there was a little tilt occa- sionally but Mr. Elliott was so good natured and considerate that we all admired and respected him. Some of the Seniors may thinlc they are lady- fussers but hats off to Elliott. Mr. Elliott is both a refined gentleman and a scholar and his position on the teaching force has been a credit to A. H. S. 10 ALBERT F. DARtsY,i B.S., A.B. Mathematics and Economics Mr. Darby is completing a course in Law at the University, and has not been regularly em- ployed as an instructor. He has imprinted indeli- bly on the minds of the Seniors the fundamental laws and facts of Economics. His profound ex- pounding of the law has been a source of the greatest benefit to all his pupils. One Senior has said that it is worth being in Mr. Darby's class just to see him smile.
