Naturally she is interested in the boys but never lets the interest show itself-when they are arounrl. She aspires to become a business girl and carve a career for herself in the world. TI-IE CLASS OWL 'iWilIie Wisdom XYITH Au. 'rm-1 Slcxxons all-IlIlIl'fl'd!lG goes but lliisdom- lingn-s. Honors! Too numerous to mention. lVillie XVisdom has been a constant but unseen member of our illustrious class. In the classroom. on the athletic Field, on the debating forum, and in the opera. chorus, Willie has made his presence felt by furnishing inspiration for 1924 to do its best for Biglerville High. Strange as it may seem, this rare bird has settled on the shoulders of each and every Senior and intends to accompany us on our individual journeys thru life. May we all heed the aclmonitions of this little bird and recall its many lessons learned in Biglerville, High. GRACE B. NVAGNER Gracious Tgxums ROCK, PA. Shia 'is gentle, th-at cloth. gentle decals. Mandolin Club, 35 Wliittier. 3, 4: Class Play. This young lady came to us from our neighbors up the line and since her advent in the Sophomore year, she has been often seen but seldom heard. In fact, her silence has hellned her thru the difficulties of the curriculum, for instead of talkin2.' she kept discreetly silent and thereby gained credit for knowing all about the subject. She is going to be at nurse and already we hear the masculine chorus singing I Don't YVunta Get Well. We don't blame them. Good Luck, Gracious l20l

Here is a. girl who has been unusually successful in her every unrl0r-taking. Verl satile beyond belief, Eva is equally at home concocting delicious pastries or entertaining from the concert stage. She has set her mind on serious problems of life and is already lining-er prosper-ts: up with a view to matrimony. Good luck, Eva. ' G1-IUIUJIG l+'.

Out of the woods, four years ago, came Geo'rgily as green as they make 'em. How four years of polishing has brought luster to this diamond in the rough can be seen by a glance at the above picture. He is athletically inclined and has starred at soccer and basket ball. He is just beginning to feel an interest in the more talkative sex, our old reliable Et Blgham being his First crush. George aspires to manage a bhain of stores and we will see him ont-'Woolworthingn Kvoolworth in the next few years. JEMIMA S.

You ca.n't judge a b-ook by its cover, nor can you judge a woman by her looks. Jemima has views on :ill subjects except men. and they are simply out of the question. Judging' by the enormous quantity of books she carries to and from school, she is very efficient in herscholastic work. She leans toward the scientific and we expert her to make rm name for herself and invirlentally B. H. S., in medicine. T191

T '41 Q' Srninr Gllaaa 1-Iiatnrg The imniortal hard ot Avon has heen given credit for originating the justly celebrated line, All the worldis a stagcf, The world is a vast revolving play-house on the surface of which comedy, tragedy and farce find room. g One particular spot on this whirling sphere saw in the fall of nineteen-twenty, the introductory how of twenty-one youthful actors across the toot lights oi' that portion hounded hy the confines of Biglerville High School. ,During that first hectic act. with trembling knees and palpitating hearts, we took our respective parts in the activities of the school. Inoculated early with that priceless virus known as school spirit, it was not long before- the first eiiiects ot the dazzling lights wore oft. Time has dimmed for ns many ot the events of that first year. But the corn roast at Heiges' Grove. the beginnings of haskethall. the inaugu- ration of a hasehall team-these stand out as ineoltacahle scenes in which 1924 played a prominent part. With the advent ot the second act. we lost three players but gained one. With almost incredible swiftness, the whirling stage turned its face towards the audience and aga.in 192-L occupied the lime-light. The 'first real etfort to organize a basket ball team was made that season and the success was due to the support given by us as Sophomores as well as by our financial support. We firmly led the verdant Fresh- man into the paths of scholastic righteousness. The triumphs of B. H. S. at the first field meet of the Adams County schools resulted in no small measure to the efforts of 1924. That third act was one long period of unconfined joy. Ursurping the peroga- tives of the carefree Junior, we led them all in social events, culminating in the lavish entertainment of the Seniors at Piney Mountain Inn. However, we never neglected our scholastic work and the high standards of our class room work can he attested to from Mar-i' or l3earie hy any who might he- so curious to inquire. Both our boys and girls brought glory and honor to the school by starring on the athletic teams. Actions speak louder than wordsi' runs the old adage and a review of the events at old B. H. S. will hear out that our actions certainly made a noise. We are now presenting our finale. With unahated speed, we a1'e nearing the great day of days. The luster of our fame shines ever the brighter thru the last remaining months of our sojourn in this small drama of school life. We are proud to have heen members of 1924. Without boasting, and with gracious modesty, we can truthfully say that we have ever held high the colors of our school and that without 192-L. Biglerville High would not shine nearly so brightly in. the school firmament. And without dear old Biglerville High. its traditions and spirit, 192-1 would have heen sadly lacking. Au Revoir but not good-bye. l A ' M. L. W. f2ll
