Ladies and gentlemen, crooks and horsemen, kindly hear me. Here we have the hand- somestC?D boy in the class. Ted is a good dancer and may be seen hopping around at Bach's on Saturday evening. Noche is just chucked full of knowledge, because he never lets any out. Izzy is the best horseman- in the class, he has been riding through his Latin for four yearsC?J. Noche is as hard-boiled as they come. He lives on hardtack, dog biscuits and applejack. It is often said that Izzy can Charleston to the music of any orchestra. But even with all his faults, we know Ted will make good at Syracuse and will uphold the standards of Old Reading High. ' LUTHER PARKER-Technical Luke Camera, 1. Behold! Our class inventor. Following in the footsteps of Edison and Steinmetz, our classmate would stay up until the early hours of morning trying to perfect some chewing gum contraption. For this reason he takes a liking to physics, chemistry and electrical work, and was an active member of the Camera Club. Luke is easy and cau- tious in motion and words, and whenever in an argument with his co-workers, namely. Letcher and Zerbe, he never raises his voice to a highC?j pitch. 1Vhether he continues in the inventive line or not, such determination as his deserves a place on the top of the ladder, and '27 Feb. bids him farewell with the assurance that he will make the top round.

MILLER--Commercial Butch, Curlie, Mud, Dick Lo and behold! The clubman of our class! This handsomeC?j countenance can bc seen any Sunday evening at the NVest Wyomissing Club. If not found there, he is either in the company of Ruth, Mary or Helen. From the reading above it is known that Butch is a good deal of lady's man, but this is not the c'ascC?J He is one of the best butchers in Reading, and can be seen cutting up meatsf?j any time of the day or night. Mud is one of the best known big' game hunters of Reading and vicinity, and can be frequently seen in the wilds of Mt. Penn and Oakbrook hunting rabbits and blackbirds. But we know that Butch will succed in anything he undertakes.

Behold! Pete, the inspiration of all women. Even Pola says he is a nice boy. Pete is a great help to his dad as a clerk and errand boy, the only trouble being that he spends too much time at Pola's when going there for an order. NVe must admit that Pete is a fine student and knows his stuff in stenography. He is also great bankerC?7. B0b VVeiherer does the work and he does the blotting. Taking things more seriously, Pete expects to go to Philadelphia, where he wishes to continue his commercial course, and we are sure he will make good. Here's luck, old top!

PERELLA-Commercial ill-len!! Bronze Scholarshipg Class Base Ball, -lg Class Basket Ball, 'lg Hi-Y, Alf. Ladies and gentlemen: It gives us great pleasure to present to you the el'ass sheik. Hen is known to the class as Rudolph Valentino's only rival. Vtlhen Hen is not found at home, you will find him playing his like beneath the window of a certain Elizabetlfs room. Henry just received a commission from the pottery company, as Elizabeth finds the only way she can quiet him is by throwing a flower-pot. The class knows that this certain damsel lives in what is known as VVest Reading. Henry likes shorthand, and per- haps he will be a teacher in it sometime. This Romeo is going to college, but at the pres- ent is undecided where he will go. VVhatever Hen attempts, the class knows he will make good, and the class bids him farewell. ' DONALD REED-Technical flnonff , Who is that intelligent looking young man coming down the steps of the library? That is none other than Don Reed, walking away with some more knowledge about architectural drawings. This is his favorite occupation when he is not slinging cheese in Kissinger's market during the week-end, or taking a walk out to Elm, Street to see Mim. Don may look sleepy, but oh, my! He is one of Baer Parl-:'s best tennis players and visits the court frequently, partly because so many pretty lassies strengthen their arm muscles by letting him- teach them the art of the game. Well, Don, we are sure that you will be a big success as an architect, or in any other thing which you may undertake.
