Glf.nn Avery Fisher. ‘ Ave” ought to have been a Knight of the Middle Ages so well does he en joy the presence of ladies. He is one of our soldier boys belonging to the National Guard. He is captain of the H. S. militia and has seen service on the baseball, football and track teams. He is the hustling subscription manager of the Spectator. Guy 1). Kyper began his noisy career in Swanton, Ohio, and being driven from the state for his tumultuous proclivities, sought a refuge in Angola. So far he has succeeded in confining himself within the limits of civilized life. Born a Buckeye he has had a hard time to live it down. He is our class president, High School orator, and best all around athlete. Mark Vernon Nichols came to us from Knox, lnd., and installed himself among us in the sophomore year. He is the only one of the senior class who is never out of money. There has never been a time that he did not have nickels with him. He is our able editor-in-chief, our chief cartoonist, our wit, and—so we have heard—the only boy of the class who is afraid of a girl. He has a calf. 18

The autumn of 1888 was made famous by the arrival of “Dick,” the torment and delight of every teacher to whom he has gone. As business manager of The Spectator he has made a great success. He has been one of our best athletes, a star on the base ball field, foot ball gridiron and on the track. He is president of the Red Hair Club. Clara Elizabeth Emerson.

Wallace Steves Purinton. “Wally” began his ponderous existence in Angola, and has filled it with sunshine ever since. He is known as the hardest working boy in the class. Some call it “push;” others call it “pull;” while there are others who insist it is “bluff” or even “graft.” Aclelia Adele Stallman emerged from the forests of York township more than a score of years ago and has spent the greater part of three years in our midst. Dame Rumor says she is the only girl in our class that has met Hvmen. Bessie Ophelia Tuttle. “Bess”says that she has found her Hamlet and that he is as great as William the Conqueror. She first saw the light of day on a farm in Scott township and the nation celebrated her coming with joyous acclamation. It was July 4, 1886. She is the literary ediror, and great credit is due her for the work she has put on the history of the senior class. 19
