ALFRED R, PROTSMAX— He tills the hill as a Commercial teacher O. K. This is his first year in P. A. Allen High, but Ave sin- cerely hope he will grace us with his jiresence another year at least. MIS8 MARY SHAFER— This teacher is ( )mniercially inclined, also. If you love lectures go to her class. The oidy trouble with her is that she never can keep her face straight, antl her lectures turn out to l)e friendly advice. MR. M. H. SMITH— Agriculture is his hobby. He looks to be such a (juiii Jiian, but that ' s not saying he doesn ' t know how to teach, ' e extend to him a hearty welcome for a stay willi us next year.

THE RETROSPECT, 1925 CLASS HISTORY The ever distinguished elass of 192 ) entered 15. H. S. in ' 21 with tlie pep and vigor wliicli has since cliai-arterized it during the four years in liigh school. Miss Karns was cliosen as Faculty advisor, not only for our freshman year, but for each succeeding year. This established a i recedent in High School in the Avay of faculty advisors. Miss Karns has un(loul)tedly been one of the best advisors in tlie school and the class lias never regretted it ' s choice. The class enteicd into all l)ranc]ies of school activities whether social, scholastic or athletic and lias always produced leaders in each branch. During the first two years, wliile not so strong in athletics, the class entered in contests witli the other classes such as Red Cross Drives, Spelling Matches, Debates and won tirst ])lace in a large ])ercentage of them. In the last two years, in addition to kee])ing uj) the sjilendid work of the preceding two years, the class contributed its share of men on all the athletic teams, in fa t, not a U ' w of the best ])layei-s are fi-om the class of ' 25. Otificers who were l)est titled foi- the position have always been elected. As an example, the othcers of the Senior year are Don Carnal], (President); Lawrence Decker ( N ' ice Tresident ) ; Miriam l.antis (Sec- retary), and Jack Thomas (Treasurer). , s would be natural the Senior year was by far the busiest on account of the class jilay, baii(|uet, Ketros])ect, commencement. The class ])ro(luced the musical comedy, -Fleuiette, as their class play. II was one of the best Seiiioi- jilays e ( ' r shown in Itlutt ' ton. As a final showing of respect, (he Ket rospecl, (he masterpiece of a graduating class, was dedicated to liss Karns as an acknowledgment of her services. Certainly the work which the class has dcme and the ideals for whicli it has stood will remain long in (he memory of the coming classes of students of lUuffton High School. JOKAY, ' 25.
