Y 4 RUTH GEISLER Her own makes her way Ruth's school career has been very success- ful. She is always near the top of her class and is always willing to share her ideas with any- one. Ruth has a mystic sense of humor some- where beneath her brilliant exterior, but it is hard to discover. Ruth has always been too busy studying to assist much in school affairs, but she has never been a 'ikicker or a slack- cr . At present she is holding a position with Stanley G. Flagg and Co. We all predict her success. Commercial , Toi- JUANITA GILES When joy and lessons clash, Let lessons go to smash Nita is the flapper of our class. You can see her any time surrounded by a crowd of fellows. She is a little flirt, with suc-h an in- nocent doll-face, and such nicely fluffed bob- bed hair. We hear that she is going to go to West Chester Normal. We are sure that she will be a success, in one respect at least. 'iOur doll was dropped from our ranks for a while, but managed to climb up again. She never despaired . Technical -O- I DONALD GRAHAM One man there was who used his tongue It must have been Donald, for men may come and men may go, but he runs on forever. Don is constantly talking and laughing about something that seems perfectly serious to his classmates. He was the very efficient treas- urer for our Senior year and his ability to talk convinced us that we really should pay our class dues. He pursued the Commercial Course and is now working at the Hill School. Vv'e are sure that he will be a success. Commercial C225

PAUL FELTON The plowman homeward plods his weary way Paul Felton is one of the least known and quietest boys of our class. He hails from the wilds of Limerick and is naturally a farmer. He has been very loyal to his class and school and all who know him know that he is a jolly good fellow . Paul is pursuing the Classical Course and is sure to be successful in his life's work. He believes in being 'fMeek as a saint Silent as a sphinx Classical 10... CHARLES FISHER Much cometh in and little goeth oat Here is one of the quiet, yet brilliant mem- bers of our class. Because of his eagerness to work, Charles has won the friendship and re- spect of both teachers and classmates. Charles is always near the head of the class and is quite a shark in bookkeeping. He is a brilliant pupil of the Commercial Course and now holds a po- sition. Commercial O -O- VERNA FISHER From morning 'till night, It was Verna's delight, To chatter and talk without ceasing I Verna is one of the care-free girls of our class. She is always ready to join the 'Lbunch for a jolly good time. She always has her own opinions of what is being discussed-whether it be Macbeth or a picnic. Verna is one of our out-of-town students, but that does not distract her from class functions. She is struggling with the Ccmmercial C215

JOHN HALLMAN I am a philosopher - confound them all John Hallman, always called Johnnie , is one of the boys of our class who have per- sonality blessed with a lot of laziness. John- nie's school life has been stormy with argu- ments and love affairs. He is a confirmed ad- mirer of the fairer, sex and is very frequently seen with them. He has been active in school affairs. He has served on various committees during the four years. Johnnie expects to enter Staunton Military Academy in the fall. Here's to his success. p Technical -0- GERTRUDE HARLEY XVher1 she smiles, others smile, And soon there are miles and miles of smilesn. And when she giggles! Oh, my! It is impossible for anyone to stop her. Gertrude had the first principles of education indelibly im- pressed upon her in the excellent schools of Ken- ilworth. She is a very good natured, kind-heart- ed girl, always willing to help. Gertrude has been pursuing the Commercial Course and ex- pects to take a position in the business world, She won first prize in the Girls' Declamation Contest. The class of 1924 wishes her success. Commercial -O.. IRMA HARING Some think the world is made for fun and frolic, And so do I! That surely is lrma's standard. She never worries about anything but a good time. Les- sons and teachers never bother her, they are merely abstract beings. She is always in a good humor and her smile is a sure cure for the blues . Irma has been struggling with the Commercial Course for four years and expects to take a position in the business world, but we fear her employer will soon lose her services, for she shall decide to take up domestic science in a practical way.
