r' 1 A , Y ' --4 2 to on nance 1 b d ' f f ffffiz s .- Mg- gg 1,1 'Krall HAROLD M. MILLER, Instructor of Sciences. Education: Cumberland Valley State Normal School: Gettysburg College, Summer Course: Stroudsburg State Normal School, Correspondence Courses, Pennsylvania State College, Extension Course. Experience: Burnham High School, two years. Mr. Miller is a native of Spring Run, where, in his leisure hours, he assists his father in managing the farm. We have reasons to believe that next year will find him in College completing his education. Lately he has taken a great interest in music, much to the surprise of us all, but, like Postum, there's a reason. FRED C. BOWER, English, Coach of Athletics. Education: Berwick High School: Harrisburg Tech.: Allbright Collegeg Notre Dame University, Summer Course, Pennsylvania State College, Extension Course. Experience: Burnham High School, three years. Mr. Bowers's three years in Burnham have been successful in more ways than one. Under his instruction, the English Department has maintained a high standard. His leadership in Athletics has brought honor to the Burnham High School. He was also successful in finding a wife during his sojourn in Burnham. We understand that Mr. Bower is going to leave us. Our loss will be Camp Hill's gain. Our best wishes will go with him. MARY E. HOWE, Latin, History Education: Lewistown High School, Juniata Ccllege. Experience: Burnham High School, one year. Miss Howe is serving her first year as teacher in Burnham High. Her home is in Maitland, and she makes the trip daily in her trusty little Ford runabout. She is very generous and kind-hearted, as was shown many times this year when she took students who became ill in school to their homes. Miss Howe is Faculty Advisor of the Freshman Class and she spends much time helping them solve their many intricate problems. n A. KATHRYN DECKER, Commercial Teacher. Education: Lewistown High School: Lancaster Busfness College, Susquehanna University. Experience: Burnham High School, one year. Miss Decker claims Reedsville as her birthplace but at the present time resides in Milroy. She is Faculty Advisor of the Sophomore Class, and has complete charge of the Commercial Department. Under her able tutelage, the Commercial Students are rapidly developing into expert stenographers. ARLA C. SMITH, Supervisor of Music. Education: Lewistown High School, Coomb's Conservatory of Music: Sydney Conservatory of Music, Australia, West Chester Normal School, New York University, Summer Course. Miss Smith has given the Burnham Schools her services for the past four years. Her home is in Lewistown, and she is busy day in and day out. In addition to teaching music in our two school buildings, she gives private lessons, vocal and instrumental, at her residence. During the last few years, Miss Smith has presented many commend- able musical entertainments. She is always doing work that is of interest to pupils and public alike. TWELVE

Editor of The Lance, Junior and Senior Class Plays, Varsity Basketball, H. S. Operetta, Red Coat Band, Oratorical Contest. Jacobs, our valedictorian, is one of our blondes, and is a good sport. Well I should say! She was our star side center. Ruth is a staunch supporter of school and class. She also is one of the class's most accomplished vamps, and delights in playing her art. ROGER HARPER Harper Roger Harper, our Geometry shark, Is sure some sheik out in the dark. Varsity Basketball, Junior and Senior Class Plays, Business Manager of The Lance, H. S. Operetta. Harper is one of the quiet boys of our class but always willing to do his share. This year he has proven quite a success as Business Manager of The Lance. We all believe that some day Roger will be a good business man if he doesn't become too ambitious along other lines. Roger is an all around sport, and is a Basketball player of great renown, but, he has one failing, he doesn't like the girls, although they are all crazy about him. MARTHA MAC ELWEE Mac Martha MacElwee, as a comedian is there, On hearing a good joke, is up in the air. Basketball, Junior and Senior Class Plays, H. S. Operetta, Red Coat Band. If there is ever a chance for a witty remark or a practical joke, there you will find Mac. Her wit has made her popular among the students, and we predict that said wit will make even the roughest path in her life seem strewn with roses. LOCKWOOD CROWNOVER Lockey Lockey, a descendant of Duke Buckingham, In all his classes, is considered a lamb. Basketball, Junior and Senior Class Plays, H. S. Operetta. Lockey has always been an active member of our class. We know he has some radical ideas, but still we like to hear something dif- ferent once in a while. He has been a willing worker and a good booster. Lockey is a dandy chap, and is neverafraid to go to class unprepared.
