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.

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.

I GEORGE ROBERT BOTKIN BERT1-xA PEARL STREET Ross D. ROSENBERGER Ada Grammar School, l9l I g Football: Basket Ball, l9l 3-I4-15, Class Prophet, l9l 5: Boddie is a poet and philosopher-at least he thinks so, but strange to say, others disagree with him. In football he acquired the distinc- tion of being the best High School quarterback in Ohio. He was also a howling success as a book agent. He is the steam, the noise, and the fun of the Senior class. He is a rare speci- men and well worthy studying. Ada Grammar School, l9l l. Bertha is one of our number who although she has never caused a great stir, has shown herself at all times to be a perfect lady, and a faithful student. Not what you call a social butterfly, not a. wonderful scholar, not a greal musician-these 'she is not. What is she? just quiet, genuine, steady, faithful, loyal, and such qualities as mean happiness, enjoyment, and the consciousness of work well done. t 26 Stow High School, l9l4. Ross is one of our superfluous talkers who always has an easy How of language, with ample words to express his thoughts and some to spare. In the classroom he has shown him- self to he a diligent student, an active thinker and an unusually well informed pupil. He to higher fields is destined-in a grander plane his thought, For in Thelma Stopher his every hope is wrought. '
