Hardly a sprig With a leaf or two Loved by the sunshine Kissed by the dew. What little plant thing A bud! As l live So tiny a present To the big world to give. What little plant thing You've grown so tall Last time l saw you You were tiny and small. Leaves a deep green And a big thorn, too And, oh! tiny plant thing Buds brilliant hued. Why, how you quiver, Are you happy now? Notfsuch a small thing the big world to bow. Oh! little plant thing What a wonder you are! You're grandeur and beauty Are talked of afar. Petals like velvet Red as dark wine Stems tall and graceful As if to heaven you climb. Beautiful rose You may now greet the world, For to you is her Banner of homage unfurled. -Phyllis A. lVlahn, '22. 4. 11l1--1 Q-n-. gl, Y, -7,,,,i,If-1.1-.......,.-Q..-Ti ge NI

Miss Burns has been an invaluable pilot and a splendid companion throughout the last three years of our hectic High School journey. She took up the reins at the start of our Sophomore year, and not being content with merely guiding us very capably, she has even taken the halter in hand and helped over all the rough spots in the road. Berneeta is a good sport at class parties and excursions, and we never suffered from want of excitement when she was on deck, which she always was. VVe hate to give her up now, but we hope the next class which is lucky enough to engage her for their guiding spirit will be as apprecia- tive of her faithfulness and help as we have been. CHARLES BARGER- Charlie Industrial. They call me cruel-hearted, but I care not what they say. Staunch and steady are the two words that characterize Charlie. He has done much in our four years in High School to make our class a success. He has held many prominent otfices, being President ID, Treas- urer ICg Vice-President IIC, and President IIA. The Barger home, always open and ready, has been the scene of many enjoyable parties. Charles has also been prominent as an athlete, being on the Varsity Basketball and Football teams during 1921. He has made a name for himself as an actor when he played Claude in the Junior Class play Jane , In short, Charlie is an all-around good scout. ALBERT ENGELHARDT- Perk Latin. Perk was the live-wire of the class, ever ready to entertain with his so-called sensical nonsense. In IA he was chairman of the Social Committee and in IIA he was Vice-President. He will also be remembered as a good football player, receiving an in both 1920 and 1921. He never has time to talk b'ut is always in a rush to meet the young lady whose bright eyes rain influence. Pl-lYl.l.ls MAHN- Pam or Phil Q College Preparatory Latin. Worth, courage, honor-these indeed your sustenance and birthright are. Phil was really one of the most active members the class can boast of. Her home was always open to the class for parties and they were always glad to go there. In ID and IID she was Chairman of the Social Committee and in IIA she was Secretary of the class. She was Literary Editor on the Pennant Staff several terms and contributed Poems regularly to the paper during her four years in school. Pam was the leading lady in the IA class play Jane . She was Editor-in-chief of the Pennant and was among the first to receive an for journalistic work. DALE GEMBERLING- Gunboat Industrial. Consistency, thou art a jewel. Dale is the boy with the sunshiny greeting for everybody. He has been with our class through our entire career and he's ,always been a faithful worker and co-operator. Gunboat won his letter in football as a tackle in 1921 and was a valuable member of the relay team last spring. He was keeper ol' the many sheckles of our class during the IIA term. His greatest follies are chewing gum and vaudeville.
