A. Bortner. Motto: Not to be served but to serve. Class Flower: White Carnation. Class Colors. Silver and Blue. Nineteen young Freshmen entered the portals of C. T. H. S. August 31, 1925. Their pep and vim caused the admiration and wonder of all. The class undertook the art of studying and became masters of it. Don't think, however, that the class studied all the time. We also had our pleas- ures and fun. Feeling that the Seniors should be told how much We appreciated them, we arranged to give them a dinner. The Freshies with their usual co- operation made it a great success. We held our program while the Seniors and Juniors were busily en- gaged in practicing their plays. When May came, at the end of the term, all left with a sad heart. It was difficult to leave all our com- panions. The busy summer departed and au- tumn returned, bringing back the class of '29 to C. T. H. S. The class noted the absence of one of its mem- bers, leaving only eighteen. For a time it was hard to study. Vacation had brought so many happy adventures that we wished to tell the rest, of them. Soon we began to work in earnest. P ! 20 The class, ever ready for fun, de- cided to give a Hallowe'en party at the home of Anna Krebs. The mem- ory of the party lingers as one of the bright spots of our life. Soon the class learned that Ray- mond Stahlman could not complete his course with us. Thus the class of '29 lost a loyal member. Before we knew it, the year was gone and vacation returned. The happy vacation days soon passed and the school bell on Glenville Hill was again heard. This time we sadly learned that we were to have only fifteen members. As Jolly Juniors it was our duty to set an example for the lower classes. So when Student Government Par- ticipation was suggested, we were the first class in school to adopt it. Being dignified and studious all the time is too much for anyone. There- fore a party was suggested for the Juniors and the Sophs. This party like the ones before was enjoyed by all. On January 25, 1928, the Juniors had a practical lesson on freezing mixtures. The experiment being successful, the resulting ice-cream was eaten with relish. Though our class has only one more year at C. T. H. S., it will always live in the hearts of its devoted members. Who knows what Edisons, Lincolns. Carusos or Fords may be found among its members. It's ever excelsior. -G. Spicer, '29,

THE GLEN ECHO? Svuphnmure Gllama 31-Iiaturg Ten green and bashful Freshmen appeared on the beautiful hill of C. T. H. S. on August 29, 1926. Every- body seemed strange to the ten young faces. A class meeting was held Sep- tember 12 under the supervision of Miss Haar, our class adviser. We elected as President Marguerite Bar- behenn, Vice President Catherine Bortner, Treasurer Alton Dubs, Sec- retary Martha Currens, Class Re- porter, Catharine Bortner. The ten faithful pupils attended school to the end of the first semester. Woodrow Wagner and Cletus Hetrick stopped school on account of home work. The remainder of the class still hoping to grasp the Golden Crown continued. Excellent school spirit prevailed among the pupils and we did not appear as green as we did during the first semester in school. Our fellow schoolmate Leon Bortner had the misfortune of breaking his leg when the buggy overturned, but we were glad to have him return after five-weeks of pain and misery. Later in the year a class meeting was called to order by the President, Marguerite Barbehenn. The Yel- low Rose was chosen as the class flower. The class motto, Virtue Conquers Everything, was selected. Violet and Gold were decided upon as class colors. At the close of the Freshman year we all felt sorry that school did not continue through the summer months. The girls helped in playing volley and basketball. The boys also helped in athletics. Here we are on the threshold of an- other year, the sophomore year. The class had eight members enrolled when school started. However, only seven members are left. Marguerite Barb-ehenn on account of the death of her mother went to live with her sis- ter and brother-in-law, Prof. and Mrs. John Getz, Reynoldsville, Pa. On September 3, 1927, a class meet- ing was held at which time the follow- ing oflicers were elected: President, Alton Dubs, Vice President, Martha Currensg Secretary, Beulah Sher- many Treasurer. Alliene Lau. The work did not worry us nearly as much as it did in our Freshman year and we thought school life was great. Martha Currens showed her skill in debating, December 3, 1927. A class meeting was called by the President, Alton Dubs in order to elect a council- man and assistant councilman for the Student Government Participation for the betterment of the school. Catharine Bortner was elected as councilman and Leon Bortner as as- sistant councilman. We also elected health oflicers, Martha Currens and John Runk. This year was some- what uneventful but whatever was undertaken was successfully finished. The class and school spirit was good. -M. C. C. and C. E. B.. ,30.
