DEDICATION YW im' E, the class of nineteen hundred and thirty- two of the Blooinsburg High School, grad- uating in the year of the Bicentennial Cele- bration of the birth of Washington, are proud to dedicate this, our year book, to Mr. Robert Mercer, class adviser and friend. Mr. Mercer graduated from Bloomsburg High School with the class of 1914. He then attended Gettysburg College for two years. Leaving Gettysburg, he enrolled in Carnegie Institute of Technol- ogy where he remained for two years, or until that institution was appropriated for militaristic purposes by the United States Gov- ernment. He returned to Gettysburg and secured his Bachelor of Science degree. Four four years he taught in the Berwick High School. He left this position to become principal of the Millville High School in 1926. The following fall he came to Bloomsburg and has been a member of the high school faculty here for the past five years. Mr. Mercer is a college cooperative teacher. During the three years since Mr. Mercer became our class ad- viser, we have learned to know him as a friend. His active interest in class affairs and his personal interest in its hundred members as individuals has gained the undivided admiration and respect- of his class. We can truly say that no one ever hesitated to talk to him about any of our perplexing problems. In every way, Mr. Mercer was a class adviser and at all times our friend. In selecting the Father of our Country for the theme of our Memorabilia, we sought to create an immortal spirit to guide us through the bewildering problems of life. In dedicating this, the record of the ideals and memories of our youth, to Mr. Mercer, we sought to pay him our highest and most fitting tribute. 4
