Y i ji-zssna KrNc. Boxwell Graduate, 1911: Carey High School, 1913g Vanlue High School, 1914. Modest, studious, lady-like, and pleasant are some synonyms for Jessie. We made our first acquaintance with her this year. All her asso- ciations with the members of the class have been of the most friendly sort. She has the best wishes of the best class that ever graduatd from Ada High School. i May there ever be roses in her pathway and may her shadow never grow less. PAUL CAREY Boxwell Graduate, 191 1. Carey, the sport of the Senior class, is a strictly guaranteed article in every way. Paul can play the piano, Paul can read Virgil, and Paul can write notes, but most of all Paul can wiggle, and this he persists in doing a greater part of the time. With the amount of knowl- edge this young gentleman has stored up during the past four years he ought to surprise the world. 24 ANNA TALMAGE HARSHMAN Bowell Graduate, 19114 New Stark .High School, 191 3. Everybody knows me by my laugh. Talmage has stood well in her classes and in this way she has won the respect of students and faculty. Like a record on a phonograph, she doesn't make much noise until she gets started- but then, Oh, my! She is a beautiful singer, a good student, and a faith ful worker. We are told she aspires to the high position of a peda- gogue.

RALPH KLINGLER HELEN MARGUERITE RUSSELL VON SPELLMAN Boxwell Graduate, l9l0g Class President, 1913-14g Co. G, 0. N. G.g Baseball, l9l2- I3-I4-IS. Poor Ralph! We are afraid the lure of politics will be the undoing of him. He is a born politician and can't help it. Ralph ex- presses the utmost faith in Woodrow, and to him William Jennings is a patron saint. No member of A. H. S. need be surprised if he takes up the daily paper twenty years hence and reads in large head-lines the account of the Honorable Ralph Klinglefs eloquent speech on the floor of the Senate. Ada Grammar School, l9l l. Helen has been somewhat of a shark in her classes. She is very much interested in muni- tions of warfare inasmuch as she displays large quantities of powder. Helen is jolly and sociable, having taken a prominent part in all social activities of the class. We understand that her aspirations run in the direction of being a teacher of Domestic Science. 23 Football, l9ll-l2-l3-l4: Basket Ball, 1913-I4-15: Baseball, l9l2-I3-I4-I5. Von spends his time as a man of leisure and at odd moments studies a little. He is our star athlete. He seems to take to athletics as nat- urally as a duck does to water. His special abilities are not conhned to any one game, as he seems to play each one with equal slcill. Vonis of such a disposition that, like the tea- kettle, he is able to whistle though in water up to his nose.

RUTH MAME WOLFLEY Boxwell Graduate, I9l l : New Stark High School, l9l3. No, dear reader, it is not a vision but only the fair features of our friend and classmate Ruth. Ruth is another of those who comes from that wonderfully distinguished and far- famecl place they call New Stark. Ruth possesses wonderful powers as any one will tell you who has seen her exert her wonderful in- fluence over Elliott in Physics class. JULIUS E. BARDELMEIER Antwerp Grammar School, l9l l 3 Antwerp High School,- l9l 3g Defiance Academy, l9l 43 Basket Ball, l9l4-l5. Be not deceived for this exquisitely fine look- ing young gentleman is not half so innocent as his looks would imply. We are sorry that cit- cumstances have prevented our being more closely associated with Julius in High School, as his extra work at the University has kept him away from the building most of the time. As a member of the basket ball team he showed unusual ability, especially when it came to tossing the ball through the ring! 25 DoRo'rHA CANDACE S1NK1-:Y Boxwell Graduate, 19114 Hartford High School, l9l 3. Thou art a woman and that is saying the best and the worst of thee. While Dorotha has never endeavored to make herself conspicu- ous in one way or another, she has been one of the quiet but faithful members of the class Sinkey shows marked scholastic ability, but if we are truthfully informed she aspires to other fields than Scholarship: namely, that of Matrimony.
