ALICE DETWILER Ready in heart and hand We have not heard much from Alice since we have known her. She seems to be a pretty good sort of a girl. A sport, you know. She gets along well in her studies, Fust plugging day in and day out, which after all, gets youizxthere the surest way. She is one of our out-of-town students. We do not know what Alice plans to take up, but we are sure that she will be a success in it. To-.... MIRIAM DOUGHERTY Whence is thy learning? Hath thy toil O'er books consumed the midnight oil? Here's another light-haired member of our class, and an expert candy maker, they say. We hope she gets a husband who has a sweet tooth. She steadily pursues the prescrib.ed books of the college course and no doubt she will come out near the top of the heap. During the class play, she worked long and hard as the chairman of the candy committee and the results were most gratifying. After leaving school, she ex- pects to go to Hood. May peace and luck be with you Mim . , Academic ..C,-. ALBERT DRUMHELLER Silent, but at the wrong time t Here is a bright, handsome lad, common- ly known as HDrummy . He is very well known in school affairs. He is one of the few good natured boys who always have time to do something for the class. He is seldom seen without a smile on his face, in fact he has a perpetual grin . Albert possesses some dra- matic ability and was seen quite frequently in amateur productions at school.

ALMA DAHMS Her words were simple and her soul sincere Her years here in school were very quiet ones. As a Freshman she took some interest in debating, but this interest seems to have abated somewhat in later years. Very little has been heard of her, even by her own class, We do not know where she is going to school after leaving our old High, but we hope she will con- tinue as she has always been a good student. She will always be healthy, as she gets much good exercise by hiking all over the country surrounding the town. C ommercidl 10-1 OSCAR DARLINGTON On their own, modest men are dumb Oscar is very quiet in class and speaks but seldom. His very quietness attracts attention and as a result he has many friends. Os loves to play tennis and is quite adept at it. We hear, Oscar, that you are desirous of go- ing into the automobile business. Well may- be some of us who are fortunate enough to have access to cars can help you out. Technical -O- EVELYN DAVIDHEISER From her lipsjtruth, limpid, without error flows Evelyn burst into the hall of fame when, she interpreted the role of Elise Benedotti in. the Senior Class Play.

MARY A. DWYER Her very foot hath music in it As she comes up the stairs Pause hereg and read of a quiet little girl, Mary Dwyer. Mary is a very able piano player and is always willing to do her bit of entertain- ing for her classmates. She is a favorite of everybody, She never says much, but when she speaks, it is always something worth while. Mary very charmingly portrayed the character of Ethel Spelvin in The Charm School , She not only posses music ability, but dramatic abil- ity as well, She is a member of the Classical Course, and expects to enter college next fall. We don't know what line of work she will take up, but from her past accomplishments, we know she will be successful, T Classical -O- , ROBERT ENGLE A bright, unofficious young man, Who is distinguished for his quietness Though the singular immensity of the class was somewhat augmented during the last year by the late arrivals from other schools, few can be placed on the superior level that Robert has attained, Robert is usually very quiet, but that is because of his continued day dreaming , Robert has not starred either in athletics or scholarship, but he is always ready to do some- thing that is within scope of his powers. t Technical Loi KINGDON EVANS Where ignorance is bliss, 'Tis folly to be wise This is one of Kingdon's favorite expres- sions which he learned from Shakespeare. Kingdon has tried to lead our school paper and we feel sure he has clone his best, He has been with us for four years and the class wishes him success in his future work. Classical C203
