MARGARET EVANS—Junior Class Secretary. When first we met this young lady, she was a shy. bashful, little Freshman. How times have changed her. for now she is a regular heart breaker,” with her bewitching smile and coquettish ways! She is a star” at tennis, a j)each” at dancing, a bo »k-worm ’ in school, a bouncer” on horseback, and a queen” in society. HAROLD DYER Vice President of Junior Class. Athletic Editor, Osky Wow. 1914. Foot ball, 1914, Tackle. Rase ball, 1915, Pitcher. Dick” is a cheerful chap, with an affinity for the young ladies. His future is a bright one. He is to be a farmer, married, and happy. BLANCHE ALEXANDER— Because my name is Alexander, some my beauty often slander. But your gab is of no avail, because I have my Willard Hale. Do you ever remember of having met a young lady rather slim, y.‘t very fair? Generally a broad enticing smile adorns her face. But look long and iteadiiy at this photograph and would you guess that Blanche is pleased with a rattle and tickled with a straw? EUGENE CRAM BLIT—Editor in chief, Osky Wow, 1915. A the gentle patrons of J. H. S. lo. k into this face do we not o’ s rve wisdom? To be sure we do. We are reminded of a small, bashful and inclined-to-be-backward boy, who often obtained a perfect grade in Algebra. But in our Senior class, Eugene Ws lost this serious turn of mind, and his chief trait is either thinking of some good joke or of a maiden fair, who has light hair JEAN ARMSTRONG JONES—Class reporter, Osky Wow, 1911. Senior Class Secretary. A sedate young lady from Pumpkin Ridge, Jackson, Ohio. She is the proud owner of a ringing voice and a pair of very skilled hands for piano playing. She de’ights to play tennis, especially cn hot mornings. But if you want to get on the good side of her, Learn to dance! Warning! My, how she hates dates. RAGE TEN

KARL SHALRACH—Senior Class President, A gentleman very much alive in school work, he is what is known as “booster” every inch of him a “booster,” and his “boostiveness” becomes contagious. As to his disposition, it is a combination of opti mism and devilishness. He loves nothing better than an argument. With apologies to Kipling, we may close by sajing, “His meat is argument, his drink, debate.” (Note) Don’t forget to take a look at his photograph shown above. ELIZABETH ELLEN LEWIS—Literary Editor, Osky Wow, 1915. This young lady hails from Chicago. You should hear her recite Virgil; and sing, well I cannot describe it. She is capable of great things, and will likely make a name for herself in future years. She likes to play tennis and walk for her health; but dislikes, to come to school on warm afternoons, or to wear a hat even in winter. FRANK (SETTLES Vice President, Senior Class. He is broad-minded, intellectual and possesses good habits. c is very fond of the young ladies and is a learned artist in etiquette. One of his hobbies is taking and developing pictures. He is a jolly good fellow skilled in hunting, fishing and walking. He holds the school record of covering the largest area of ground while standing. ALMA MILLER—“Tell me! pretty maiden, are there any more at home like you?” She is always quiet and with h» r soft, gentle voice, she recited those tedious lessons, and has brought to herself fame in her classes. She has helped to bring our Osky Wow successfully to publication in past years. In her Junior year she held the Treasurer’s honored position. She, in school, has been known as our “playwright.” HEBER LLOYD—A modest, gentle, and comely man. with temperament mild and habits refined- His appearance is so fair and feminine that a teacher mistook him for a lady. He is absolutely free from boasting and bluffing, yet his reserve makes him equal to the hardest difficulties. His dry humor and wit have furnished the class with many pleasant jokes. RAG E NiNE

 »? KATHERINE LAMB—A tall, slender young lady, whose favorite occupation is talking. She excels in Herman translation, ♦specially in ‘•Minna” and we are sure she intends to catch a German military officer. She is very religious, attends church three times on Sunday, sings in the choir, plays the vinlin in the church orchestra. However the Movies h ld a certain attraction for her. If you are unable to find her at church just inquire at the Pastime. CLYDE BROWN—He is of stature tall, of knowledge vast and his wisdom is envied by all. He has labored in High School under many difficulties. In his Junior year, he wasinschool only five months. While he, like many another Boxwell, has not entered upon the field of Athlet ics, he has certainly done his shate to uphold the honcr of J. H. S. by his studious career. •‘Tho’ some may sit and shake their heads negatively each day, There is not a single time when I hove nothing to say.” GRACE OILER—A quiet little girl, always st.iving to do her work honestly, cheerfully, and well. Her motto has always been; “Men area nuisance and I will none of ihcm.” We gladly commend her for her stand. This motto might wisely be adopted by many young ladies, as they enter upon their career asstuderts in Jackson High School. BERNARD HURD—On observing such a face, one would suppose him to be a brave and manly chap, but, behold! A teacher gently inquires, ‘Bernard, my boy, what are you doing? ’ And this is what we hear: “They always, always pick on me They never, never let me be.” But never mind Bernard, we were only joking. GLADYS SMITH— Asmile of hers is like one of Grace.” A very clever girl is Gladys. She has through strict attention to her lessons and close applica ion to her studies, reached the goal of graduation. By her quiet manner and care-free disposition, she has won a place in the hearts of her fellow classm n and her teachers. PAGE ELEVEN
