SUZANNE L. SNIDER, A M. OOlM ! Boom ! Boom-tidera-da-Boom-a-diddle-dee! B Boom! Boom! Boom-tidera-da-Boom! Here comes Susie's Band with its famous director Mrs. Snyder. She has developed our orchestra to such an extent as to be a great credit to our High School and to herself. Mrs. Snyder is perhaps more lucky than most of the faculty- she is married! As we eat our matutinal orange Cwe are writing this at breakfast time-maybej we smile as we recall how handy he comes in some times. She has form- ed a Uharmony class this year and most of them believe that they can secure engagements down at W'olf's Lake this summer Qwith the frogsj. lt is no easy job to try to teach about two thousand pupils the elements of music- and we do not believe that this town will ever get one better than Mrs. Snyder for this work. SUSIE K. KRIECHBAUM, A B. F we had to give one rule for teachers to make a suc- I cess of hi h school teaching it would be this' Treat g . . everybody square and donit try to make angels out of Boys in your class roomf' Miss Kriechbaum, we believe has that rule some where in the back of her head. Ever since we have gone to her we have not one complaint to make of her treatment of us. We are like an old maid- we like to tell secrets. When Miss K. started her teach- ing career she tried out a sort of student government- whenever anybody did anything wrong she would punish herself by the hand and ruler method Qwe know you know all the line points in itj. The badness grew steadily into popularity-so she changed the method-much to our sorrow. Miss Kriechbaum makes a par excellent chap- eron and when we are told she is hgoing alongi' we feel as good as if we had a raise in salary or rather about as good as we think we should feel if we should get a raise. GERTRUDE M. ANDERSON A S head of the Household Arts department Miss Ander- son has exceeded all speed limits. We marvel at her wonderful ability. lf it had not been for her strong will power and her determination, we do not know what our school would have done. Wfhen she came here she was handicapped by not having as much room as was nec- essary. She broke down this strong barrier and went right ahead anyway. It is needless to say she has turned out many good housewives-to-be. This year she has opened the lunch room selling delicious hot lunches at ex- act cost. Miss Anderson, we take off our hats to you, and wish you all possible success in years to come.

H HERBERT K. RHODES, A. B. MISTER ROADS, as one of the chemistry class wrote, it tanyone in the chem. section can tell you who it isj is really the sport of the faculty. Prof. Rhodes was introduced to us in our Freshman days as Bunny and within five minutes we were all talking of Bunny as of an old friend. We might add here that he solved an old ruestion for us. Here is the question: VVhen we were small we heard our grandmother say that she did not th'nk Dad should get us bunnies because they multiplied so fast. Soon after that we caught a bunny and found out that the blamed thing couldn't even add. As we said above, Mr. Rhodes solved the puzzle for us. We frank- ly say that we like Mr. Rhodes, and for the following rea- sons: I. He very seldom gives detnerits. 2. He al- ways gives fair marks. 3. He has a good quantity of horse Sense and is ever ready to help you out. RILLA B. HUBER, A. B. I F we were as faithful to Miss Huber as she is to us every mark would be above ninety per cent. Every one in her classes knows how she tries to drive Latin into our stuffed heads, but, lo, her subject is too dry and deep for pupils of this age and consequently many of her pleas fall on deaf ears. In study hall she does not want to sec anyone sleeping on the job and if some one gets out of order a good balling outu is her first remedy. NVhen it comes to recreation, Miss Huber is a good sport and she delights in nothing more than a hike and if some lady who thinks she can walk fast challenges Miss Huber to a race we know she will not do it again. Nl XRC XRTT 'VI ROSSMAN, N. B. A S little tots we always had an idea that English Teach- ers were gray bearded old fellows whose disposi- tions were about the same as a pet lion. Imagine our sur- prise therefore when we came to High and had Miss Rossman handed to us for our English teacher. Miss Rossman always has a smile, especially when one brings his English work in on time. If a person gets in wrong she has a way of looking at him that makes him think that the bottom has dropped out of things-and it usually has-at least out of your deportment and English marks. Miss Rossman is a specialist in Class write ups for this book, and we recommend her to future classes. fHer ad appears some pages further on.j We also assure you that she is the chaperon for Class Parties. So she comes well recommended for our successors. QOI1, that's all right Miss Rossman-and what's better it's all free, too.j

CARRIE M. MICKEY, A. B. HERE we have a teacher, yes a real teacher. Miss Carrie Mickey, we might venture to say, is the il- luminary of the faculty. She is very bright and has a wonderful intellect. If you doubt our word ask any of those whom she teaches and they will agree with us. Yes, and she sure can Carrie her point in an argument, whether it be right or wrong. Miss Mickey has traveled far and wide and to hear her relate her experiences is quite interesting. They are only verbal but can be com- pared with, Robert Louis Stevensonls Travels With a Donkey. We would advise her to stop teaching school and write. VVe would suggest that she publish her first book under the title, Twice Told Talesf, f?j l G. ELIZABETH BESSOR, A. B. SHE is practically a new teacher, having been in High School only a couple of years. As a Spanish teacher few can excel her. You can always hear, when meeting her, the cheery greeting Buenos dias Senorita, como esta Vd PM or Hace muy buen tiempo, ino es VC1'Cl2I.d?l' This difficult language is as play to her and Hispaniola flows from the tip of her tongue. I am sure she would fit in better in a great university, where there are a few girls and boys who have a fairly good amount of gray matter. fHigh Schoolers, consider yourself set upon.j Best luck, Senorita Bessor. MARY I. CAMP 5HE'S little but she's mighty. Sometimes it is hard for a teacher to win the love of every pupil. As for Miss Camp, it is an impossibility for every one of her pupils not to love and respect her. Never do we hear harsh words from Miss Camp. She is such a small, dainty person at all times, but disguised as a little Hollander at the Senior-junior party last year she took the cake. She made all the High School girls step lively, and they were fairly green with envy. These few words of praise seem petty compared with what we could say. Anyway we prophecy for her a brilliant kitchen career.
