Hut, classmates, these days arc now ending; Our paths arc about to divide, And soon we must bid an adieu To friends who have toiled by our side. The truths we've learned we’ll remember; In life they will brighten our way And help us in all of our struggles— That is, if we truly obey— And thought of our teachers and classmates When all of our school days have past, Will ever have place in our memories, As pleasure that ever shall last. Dear friends, what is life but a training? Then students let’s be to the end. And if we arc faithful and earnest, Success will our labors attend. May blessings from Heaven fall on us, Our journey grow brighter till done; Then God in His infinite goodness, Shall crown us when life’s race is won. Elmer Ellsworth Sipe, ’12. CLASS OFFICERS.

(i HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1912. JUNIOR YEAR. From Junior class to Senior journey on, The small beginning has been well begun, If you would covet learning’s prize Climb her heights and take it. JUST as the wise and god-gifted birds congregate into flocks and finally wend their way southward to spend a portion of their little lives in a more wholesome atmosphere and a more gentle climate, when autumn paints the leaves with its glorious colors and Jack Frost nibbles at every little thing; so we, the glorious class of 1912, first congregated and found a temporary destination at the Keystone State Normal School in the autumn of 1909. Here we were sheltered from the howling winter blasts without with plenty of food, both intellectual and physical, within. What an impression our first sight of Dear Old Normal made upon our pliant minds, and what an impression we looked forward to in three years of implicit obedience and the tug of war with seemingly unmasterable tasks! But we, as Juniors, “Had to learn to labor and to wait,” for we were advancing one step and only one, toward the threshold of broader education. With all the newness around us and many strange faces, nevertheless the kindly looks and hospitable actions of both teacher and schoolmate soon made us feel at home. How attracting and interesting our environment soon became! We gradually became aware that the enrollment of our first term actually surpassed that of any previous year in the history of our school; and how boastfully we now speak of it, for we are the class of 200. We were just about beginning to get acquainted with our upper classmates when an event took place which greatly promoted friendship and familiarity with our upper classmates. A certain never-to-be-forgotten Friday evening found us in Chapel, tagged to perfection, and in no time we learned new faces and acquired 12 new dispositions. After a delightful entertainment by the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. and refreshments for both mind and body, we retired, waking on the morrow with a new and warmer feeling for our Dear Old School. As time flew l y and more difficult and more numerous tasks confronted us, we began to feel that we really were a part of a typical educational institution. To grace our first week’s end both literary societies rendered special programs. How marked was our beginning here at Normal! The chapel, in order to be more in keeping with the entire school, upon our arrival, was found to have been entirely remodeled and beautified. Even a new addition to the kitchen and laundry was now being completed. How we have felt the benefit of it all cannot be expressed in fitting words. Upon our beginning two new teachers greeted us: Miss Henrietta Groeneveld, an able teacher of music, and Mr. W. S. Ilalde-man, whose work here has been felt by the entire school. The lecture course of this year gave unbounded information on topics of great importance, among which were Judge Willis Brown, of Utah, who very powerfully spoke on “The kind of training needed by morally delinquent boys.” Dr. J. E. Cathell’s lecture on Abraham Lincoln was an inspiring and patriotic address not easily forgotten. Following Philomathean Literary Society anniversary with its glowing and inspiring musical and literary program came Hallowe’en, our first one spent here at school. How marked it was! To students and teachers alike it was without taint of loudness or annoyance to any one. A sumptuous feast was served in the dining room, suitably decorated for the occasion, and after supper and toasts were over, all repaired to Chapel, where a delightful entertainment was given under the auspices of the Y. M. and the Y. W. C. A. The occasion was one of sociability, mirth and laughter, and we Juniors had now become entirely assured that the Keystone State Normal School had no equal all over this broad land. Thanksgiving Day was just as pleasantly spent. After an unparalleled feast, which was one truly to be thankful for, we again repaired to Chapel, where the exercises were instructive as well as interesting. In the meantime, while “Father Time” was speeding onward and the sand glass kept running lower and lower, we, as Juniors, began to feel the need of a closer acquaintance, and consequently 3 our first class meeting was called. In time officers were elected and colors chosen, and for the remainder of the year we felt as though the Middlers and Seniors were “ Not the only pebbles on the beach.” The winter term with its various lectures, and Keystone anniversary with its important topic, ‘‘The waste and conservation of resources,” so well discussed, passed by very rapidly, and it seemed but an immeasurably short time from the time of the reception in Chapel to our return home once more. After a fleeting vacation of ten days, we once more, as Juniors, returned to Dear Old Normal for the final tug of war. The term as usual was opened with a reception in Chapel, and now we received the last recruits of our Junior year most eagerly. The year 1909 passed only too quickly, and spring term, with the glories of nature and the busy Junior, seemed to disappear like the ice before the sun’s warm rays. The saddest event of the year was an epidemic of measles, which for some time held sway with the physically weaker element of the student body. The well-equipped infirmary, however, fostered these unfortunate students with the materly tenderness, and when time came for departure all were again released. But now the climax of the tug of war had reached us: we were confronted by a double phalanx composed of the Faculty and State Board of Examiners. However, being well drilled and armed by a year’s hard work, we proved our fighting abilities and emerged joyfully from the thick of the fray with swords sheathed for another year. Now, we were full-fledged middlers, and after congregating our flocks in the school and on the beautiful campus, Class Day and Commencement Day, we again journeyed northward to return with the winter winds. Louis Edgar Dieruff. 14 MIDDLE YEAR. The shortest life is longest, if 'tis best; Tis ours to work to God belongs the rest. Our lives are measured by the deeds we do, The thoughts we think, the objects we pursue. —J. W. Westlake. AVING successfully passed through probably the most difficult and trying year of our normal course, we are about to step upon the threshold of seniority. In looking back over the school year that has just passed I am led to believe that it has been one of eminent success. A brief account of the important events in their chronological order is desirable at this time. September 6th, the opening day of the fall term, was characterized by the usual congestion of traffic, hearty handshakes, and the recounting of vacational experiences. A large number joined the class who had passed the examination the spring previous. These, together with an almost equally large number of others known as Junior-Middlers, helped to swell the size of the class until the number overreached the two-hundred mark, making it the largest middle class enrolled at the Keystone Normal up to this time. The first days sped rapidly and Friday evening found all in eagerness for the usual reception to new students given under the auspices of the Young Men's and Young Women’s Christian Associations. Here the new students were at once put at ease and soon all constraint was cast aside. By far the most interesting feature of the evening was the activity displayed by the “recruiting committees” of the rival societies, which produced an abundance of fun and greatly enhanced the growing feeling of fellowship among the students. Thereafter, so long as the weather was favorable, baseball and tennis afforded recreation for leisure moments. Hallowe’en was appropriately observed. The dining room was artistically decorated for the occasion and the menu was exceptionally excellent. Closely following Hallowe’en came Thanksgiving Day. Work was suspended for the day and all gave themselves up to a fitting observance of the festival. At 11 o’clock the students gathered in the chapel where services were held. Attorney Harvey Heinly, of Reading, delivered an inspiring address. The surpassing feature of the fall term was the anniversary of the Philomathean Literary Society, which eclipsed that of all previous occasions. The lecture course was exceptionally good, and •5 especially will the forceful personality of Governor Glenn be long remembered by his hearers. The closing days of the term found all eager and impatient for the coming vacation, and when the final day came, all departed joyfully for a pleasant ten-day vacation at their respective homes. On the second day of the new year all returned greatly refreshed in body and mind, filled with increased zeal for the coming tasks, which by no means proved to be small ones. Unfavorable weather kept the great body of students closely housed during the greater part of the term. Whittier’s birthday was fittingly observed on his birthday anniversary, when a member of the class recited one of his poems at the chapel exercises. Lincoln’s birthday was similarly observed. The work of the Young Men’s and the Young Women’s Christian Associations during the winter term, as indeed throughout the year, was highly commendable. Unusual interest was manifested in both the individual and joint meetings of the associations. The crowning event of the winter term was the anniversary of the Keystone Literary Society. The excellence of the program called forth editorial comment from the leading educational journals and newspapers of the country. Time sped rapidly and almost before we realized it the eleven weeks of the winter term had passed. On St. Patrick’s Day all departed for a short vacation at home. Ten days later and all were again assembled within Normal halls, eager to take up the work of the last and, in many respects, the most important term of the year. The usual reception was given to the new students on Friday evening. On April 8th a bazaar was given by the Y. M. C. A. The interior of the spacious gymnasium was appropriately decorated for the occasion. Several class meetings were held during the year at which officers were elected, colors selected, and other business of minor importance accomplished. Early in the term a system was introduced in connection with the study of botany, which proved of great interest and value. In addition to the classroom work, the students in this subject were required to do practical outdoor work. The large garden provided for this purpose was laid out in plots, and to each student was assigned one of these plots. Various kinds of vegetables and flowers were planted. The condition in which the garden was kept showed the interest that the students are taking in practical work. 16 On May 13th the first annual Field Day and I’lay Picnic was held. High school students from all parts of Berks County were present and participated in the various contests, while the pupils of the model school gave exhibition games to teachers and directors. Early in the term baseball practice began, and one of the strongest teams the Normal has ever had was produced. This report, together with tennis, afforded the principal means of diversion and amusement. Several class meetings were held during the year at which officers were elected, colors selected, and other business of minor importance accomplished. The time for preliminary and State Board examinations was at hand almost before we realized it, and it was only after the final announcements were made, and it was seen that the great majority of the class had passed, that we again breathed freely. Class day and commencement having been observed, all departed for their homes with many brilliant memories. In conclusion, the class of 1912 may well be proud of its achievements during its first two years at Kutztown, and its prospects are very bright for success during the remainder of its pleasant sojourn at its Alma Mater. That the class of 1912 may ever be known as a body of worthy and loyal sons and daughters of Keystone Normal is its highest aim. OW slowly the days passed while waiting to be Seniors. But � the time came at length when the Middle class of 1911 became the Senior class of 1912. A few days afterward we left for our respective homes to spend our summer vacation. On September 6th the sounds of many voices once more filled the halls of Keystone, and this illustrious class had returned for another year, each and every one determined to do their best in order to add to the glory of 1912. The first night was given to registration, and thus we had ample time to greet old friends and find out “what section they were in.” The next day classes began and we soon realized that it needed determination to succeed in the work which was before us. It took the first week to get William Kenneth Knecht. SENIOR YEAR. settled down, but after this week was over the work proceeded smoothly, helped along by gentle reminders usually given on Tuesday morning (the morning after Monday night). This term, on Fair Day, we were honored in having with us Governor Harmon, of Ohio, who gave us a short address in Chapel. At Thanksgiving time we spent a short vacation at home. The next week, the crowning event of this term Philo anniversary was held. The performers, in their discussion of “Life,” showed their great ability and thus gained honor for the society and the class of 1912. But fall term could not last forever, and therefore on December 2 2d a merry bunch of students wended their way homeward. After a pleasant vacation of ten days, judging by the number of colds, we returned to our books, assuming more of the dignity of Seniors, since 1912 was here. If we considered our programs heavy in the fall term we faced twelve weeks more of hard work. But the weeks passed and with them came Keystone anniversary, the most important event of this term. The discussion of the life of that celebrated novelist, Charles Dickens, was a rare treat. As a remembrance of this great night, a beautiful bust of the author was given to the school. Our lecture course this year had been exceptionally good and the entertainment on February 24th (five days before the rarest date on the calendar) was being looked forward to with great interest, especially by the girls who, when Opportunity knocked, were eager to open the door. But alas! fondest hopes were blasted and engagements were suddenly broken. It was during this term that death removed one of our brightest and most esteemed members, thus reducing our class to an even 200. On the basketball floor the boys of 1912 often distinguished themselves by gaining victories for Normal. But the weeks sped on, bringing us to the close of winter term on March 22d. There is always more interest in the homestretch of a race than at any other time. With such a feeling of interest we returned on April 1st to start on the homestretch of our Normal career. The road, however, was not smooth, but had its “ups” and “downs.” But do not think that all our time was spent at lessons. The campus and the tennis courts were favorite places of recreation, while on the baseball diamond many a hard-fought game was ours. On Field Day the Seniors did their part toward making this day a success. 18 Not wishing to be outclassed by the classes which preceded us, on June 4th we decided that we would buy a fountain for the school. This will be placed in front of the main building, there to stand as a memorial to the class of 1912. The time now draws to a close when we exist as a class and friendships made during our school days must be severed. e are joining the ranks of the multitude of graduates who are about to ascend the ladder of life. And yet, anxious as we are, to begin the ascent, it is not without regret that we leave these halls where our instruction for life was given and where so many happy days were spent in the acquisition of this instruction. The ladder stands before us and we are at the bottom of it. Just how far up we, the members of this class of 1912, will reach depends upon our own efforts, as is so beautifully expressed by the poet: The heights by great tnen reached and kept Were not attained by sudden (light; But they, while their companions slept, Were toiling upward in the night. —Longfellow. Kenneth Jennings Scott. '9 Jacob Henry Adam, Florence Reber Ahn, R. D. i, Virginsville. Adam the goodliest man of men since horn His sons, the fairest of her daughters Eve.—Milton. How long still will you be asleep? Wake up! Here’s Adam! The first man in the history of the world and the first man in our history, book up and praise him, all ye his sons and daughters. Adam was created some time after the lower animals, so he grew and waxed strong. His native schools failing to furnish him with enough knowledge “ to subdue the earth and have dominion over it,” he came to Keystone. How well he improves his time and opportunities in class, in V. M. C. A., and in society. In faithfulness and piety Jacob of old alone equals him. Gentlemen, take notice and, ladies, beware; for our Adam never was persuaded by Eve, nor by any of her charming daughters. For forty weeks, both day and night, he suffered under their smiles and frowns, yet remains staunch and strong. Adam will go forth, filling thirsting souls from the fountain of knowledge. May he ever be successful, ever be faithful, ever be happy, but not always be alone; for “it is not good for man to be alone.” Route i, Bernville. Good nature and good sense must ever join.—Popis. Florence Reber Ahn was born at Strausstown, Pa., September 17th, twenty-five years ago. Her childhood was spent in Strausstown, where she began her school work. After completing her course there she taught one year, and finding success as a teacher she decided that teaching should be her future work unless some one would beg her to do his cooking all his life. Thus she came on to K. S. N. S. in 1910 to prepare for the great work. During the two years here she was a hard worker and a good girl. She is a member of the Philomathean Society. 20 Ferne Estella Altemose, ...... Lehighton. I am all the daughters of my father’s house. And all the brothers too.—Shakespeare. In the town of Lehighton a little light-haired, blue-eyed, fair-faced baby girl, Ferne Altemose, first began to cry. It was not more than eighteen or nineteen years ago. Ferne attended the public schools when she was old enough, and thinking she would like to be a teacher came to the Keystone Normal School. Without much deliberation, she decided to join Keystone Literary Society and claims she is very glad she did. She is admired greatly by the (we are not supposed to say whom), because of her pleasing ways and her beauty. You can imagine how happy she was when lecture nights came along. Other girls expected their candy, but Ferne was satisfied with a “Fry.” Some time in the future some of her most intimate friends hope to visit her school and there find an excellent school because of an excellent teacher. Esther Myrtle Angstadt, Fleetwood. Fair as a star when only one Is shining in the sky.—Wordsworth. Born, lived, but still very much alive, is the history of this daughter of the Berks County soil, Esther Myrtle Angstadt. Having no fond desire for the Normal bill of fare she boarded at her home in Fleetwood. Thither through the blinding snow on January mornings could be seen this lass wending her way to her Alma Mater. Esther is by no means the most homely of our members, and, in fact, is somewhat striking, especially when her cheerful temper and her left-hand swing break the sultry silence. On account of her left-handed development she is very handy, especially in room two, in the side corner. She is a member of the Keystone Society, in which she is preparing for the expression of her thought. In the schoolroom she will play the next few scenes of life’s drama, but the climax of the play, the fates or oracles have not yet decreed. 21 John Raymond Angstadt, Kutztown. Let Hercules himself say what he may The cat will mew and the dog will have his day. Raymond set the Angstadt family agog for the first time on Inauguration Day, 1893. He has three hobbies—tennis, at which he is an expert; girls—but pshaw, why should we bother with his conscience anyhow? The third is electricity. Raymond knows more of electricity from a few moments’ personal contact than from many weeks’ study in physics. He is our star electrician. We hope that he will let electricity alone or he will repeat a headless victory. As to girls for whom you profess so great admiration, Raymond, our advice is to let them alone and shun them as you would shun tire. They are much more dangerous than electricity. Raymond intends to lead a professional career and will no doubt make a success of his profession. Ruth Naomi Anthony, . . . . . Lehighton. July the twenty fourth in eighteen ninety two, Brought to Lehighton skies so blue A lovely blossom which into a flower has blown Which one will pluck and claim his own. It was on the twenty-fourth of July, 1892, that Ruth Naomi Anthony was ushered into this cold world. She attended the Lehighton schools and her ambition, together with other attractions, took her to Easton for her high school course. For some well-defined reason she selected the Keystone Normal to prepare her for the profession of teaching. While here she became a faithful follower of “Erasmus,” both by precept and practice. She puts all her trust in his words, “Lest ’er dreams of future success and happiness should fade. Though a disciple of “Erasmus,” she does not think it enough to know what the ancients knew and to speak it with eloquence, but is a firm follower of domestic science and an advocate of woman’s rights. Like Ruth of old she says whither thou goest I will follow; thy people shall be my people; I will neither leave thee nor forsake thee till death part thee and me. 22 Minnie Isabella Bachman, ...... Kempton. A babe in a house is a well spring of pleasure.—Tupper. The great town of Stony Run was decked in winter attire when Minnie Isabella first arrived there on February 23, 1894. Minnie grew7 up to be quality and not quantity, and consequently was sent to K. S. N. S. at an early age. After her arrival here she settled down to be a hard and conscientious worker, and as a result contracted the disease known as “fussing.” But we all know that fussing will leave her by the time she has earned enough money to buy a ten-acre farm with a beautiful bungalow. She is then going to make chicken raising a specialty. We wish her success, so much so, that K. S. N. S. will be able to give its students eggs every Wednesday morning during the winter terms. Elizabeth May Bailer, . H43 N. 56th St., Philadelphia. Life is a teacher stern, and wisdom’s crown Is oft a crown of thorns— She bore it well. This mild, meek, lonely looking girl comes from the city of Brotherly Love, and although she does look as if she had a world of care, nevertheless she possesses a jolly disposition. She claims that she was born some time within the memory of man. Her ideals are high, and although she herself is small, she craves for something tall, “ whose summit like all hills is lost in vapor,” something “Bright.” She is of credit to the class, and a continuation of her work done while here will win for her a brilliant success. Good luck to you is the wish of all. 23 Solon Francis Barner, Route i, Kutztown Between the time of Adam and the present day. For all we know so much we now’ can say, That he a babe by birth was borne aboard, Upon the cozy w'ings of mother stork. One day the gusty breezes of Eagle Point bore the glad tidings of a newly born babe, who was to become a candidate in the educational field. Your future ideal may be realized, but, sorry to say, you can never win success in your vocation, for you can be won by a “Wink.” Since you will be a solid Democrat we presume to meet you discussing “tariff revision,” in your campaign for the next presidential candidate, among the inhabitants of Mars. Don’t forget to remember Old Keystone to them. HalliE StettlER Bastian, ..... Wescoesville. She made an instrument to know’ If the moon shine at full moon or no.—Butler. Hallie made her appearance in the prosperous little town of Wescoesville, in the year 1893. After getting into mischief for five years, her parents found some relief by sending her to school. The last year of her public school life was the most interesting. Here she found a loving and sincere friend, who still tags at her heels. .She is a very happy maiden, whose temper nothing but a below grade could rutile. The most sociable of entertainers, for all day long and even late at night the sounds of merry laughter can be heard coming from her room and echoing down the corridors of third hall. Hallie expects to teach a few years, after which she expects to enter the musical realms. 24 Elva Emma Bauscher, ...... McKeansburg. He not fashion’s gilded lady, He a brave, whole-souled, true woman!—Brooks. Avoirdupois or troy? Is it worth its weight in gold? That’s the question. Well, if you think it isn't, let us tell you, it takes a mighty good catcher to hold her, anyway. McKeansburg was too small to hold Elva after she began to rise into the intellectual realms. Kutztown was her next station. Here she proved herself a brave and successful girl in all her work. The Keystone Society was adorned by her talents and efforts. It was in the classroom, however, that she was the most diligent. The declension of hie, liaec, hoc (h) was to her the height of pleasure. Elva will live to see those whom she taught to wield the pen, and move the world with eloquence, become the pillars of our liberty and independence. Francis George Bear, Route 2, Breinigsville. A bear! A bear! Not a grizzly, but Francis George, one of the most energetic members of the class of 1912, who first made his appearance some time after the Civil War. ‘‘Teddy” developed rapidly and we soon find him at Keystone. When you look at “Teddy” it seems as though he is a regular rock affected by nothing, but nevertheless he becomes sick very suddenly. His most acute attack occurred one day in February of his senior year. However, he recovered and now enjoys the best of health. “Teddy” is a good athlete, and when it comes to basketball it takes a brick wall to stop him while on the run. Although not possessing poor eyesight he confesses difficulty in seeing through the planes in solid geometry. When it comes to his profession, we are sure that “Teddy” will prove himself worthy and will give the light of knowledge to many needy souls. 25 Jonas’ Heydt Bechtel, Landis’ Store. Unlucky Jonas swallowed by a whale, July the twenty-fifth was in a gale. Much tossed about, was cast up by the main, He came to find his father cutting grain. Noble aspirant of twenty-six summers sweet, for five successive years has had a taste of the bliss of instructing tender childhood, a mystery to most of us. A Lutheran in faith, while reading his Bible he saw the Lord’s words, “ It's not good for men to be alone.” Heeding this he at once announced his candidacy in the courting field and was elected by ‘‘the holy writs of matrimony majority,” receiving the office of husband. “A wife! A wife! my kingdom for a wife.” He at once entered upon the duties of office and filled it with such ability that he now employs a private secretary in his established office at Kutztown. We bid fair to the Democrat and hope his success in life as hasty as his candidacy for a wife. Elsie Emma Beers, ....... Weatherly. In vain you tell your parting lover You wish fair winds may waft him over.—Prior. This is a very dainty girl. But it’s no use, boys. .She's as good as taken. She is strictly temperate, but she never objects to two “Beers” and a pretzel. She was born in Weatherly in 1893 and the pride of all the teachers in that town before she came here. She is a loyal Keystonian and always faithfully attended Y. W. C. A. She never allowed rain or snow to interfere with her daily tramp. We wonder why? We are no augurs, but by all signs Miss Elsie will not teach long—that is, children. She is quite a comely looking housewife. 26 Mertztown. William Fegley Bennett, Years gone by on a nice spring flay. He came to earth to make his way. Another's business to essay. That is what most of the people say. Here’s to “Little Willie,” “Jack of all trades,” whom we are now going to introduce to our com pany. He has just arrived from the isle of “nowhere” where he and Rip Van Winkle were napping, so he is in doubt as to when he was born. But we conclude that he has passed the bachelor line. “So, you old maids, put on your prettiest looks.” As near as we can figure lie and Methuselah are rivals in the old age contest. Though his eyes water at the sight of female beauty, he is in doubt whether it would be worth while to have the knot tied. He is wending his way up the hill of “Progress” and our sincere hope is that “success' will crown his efforts. Morris Allison Berger, .... Route i, Mohrsville. Silence is the perfectest herald of joy ; I were but little happy, if I could say how much.—Shakespeare. On the morning of March 19, 1893, the bluebirds were busily flying over Penn Township, Berks County, announcing the arrival of a baby boy. He has now grown to the young man represented by the accompanying ligure. At an early age, Allison showed an almost insatiable thirst for knowledge. When the common school and the high school of Penn Township had offered what they could, Allison’s thirst was still unquenched. .So he took up that very good rule: To go to the Keystone Normal School. The one thing of slight hindrance to him seems to be his firm resolve to become a bachelor. The frequent proposals he is obliged to reject (especially since leap year began) are the cause of no slight inconvenience to him. Taking all in all, Allison is one of the most faithful workers of our class. After graduation he will teach in his native township, and will strive to raise the schools of that district to a higher plane. 27 Ruth Louise Berkemeyer, 30 S. Madison St., Allentown. Never love unless you can Hear with all the faults of man!—Campion. Now Ruth is a very clever girl, but she doesn't know it. One bright August morning, in 1892, Ruth struck Maxatawny. But Ruth soon became a city girl and shone brilliantly in high school where G er m a n was her hobby. But Maxatawny had a strange attraction for her, and she came to Keystone where she has become one of our ‘Keystone belles.” Ruth never looks at the boys, she only loves the girls. Some day she will marry her roommate. But, secretly, she did admire one and like Elaine she suffered. She expects to teach until pensioned, but look out, Ruth, he’ll get you yet. Hazel Belle Bitler, ...... .Scarlet Mill. A sunny temper gilds the edge of life’s darkest gloom.—Guthrie. Hazel Belle Bitler, of .Scarlet Mill, Pa. Well, this name well becomes the girl, for, like the flowers (Hazel Bells), she always looks at the bright side of things, and her sunny disposition has won for her many friends. Her motto is Think much, speak little,” and she succeeds very well in carrying it out. Hazel, carry that bright smile with you along the rugged paths of life and it will aid in winning your success. Cheerful and faithful in every task of school life, in life’s school she will be a shining light, dispelling the darkness of ignorance. May she be happy, be successful, but not ever Bitler. 28 Frank Milton Bock, . . R. D. i, New Ringgold. The firstc vertue, sonc. if thou wilt lerne. Is to rcstreine, and kepen wcl thy tongc.—Chaucer. With the April showers in 1892, some more misery came into this world, and it was called Frank Milton Bock. The unfortunate town to receive it was New Ringgold. Here the lad was raised, and in order to support a rather big head, he developed a pair of long legs. In order to (ill this oversized cranium it was thought best to send him to Keystone. Here Frank distinguished himself in many ways. In basketball he would have been a dead shot if the balcony had been the basket. Any time from 5 to 7 you could have heard his wonderful musical instruments, and once in a while his natural instrument. This he decided needed more training, so he joined the Huterpean and here learned his first lesson in “perseverance. He soon forgot the beginning and the end of the word, but always held on to the “vera.” Never mind, Bock, remember “perseverance” when you study law and a brilliant career awaits you. William Edward Braucher, Here comes a man of comfort, whose advice Hath often stilled my brawling discontent.—Shakespeare. “Bill” has at least two things of which he is justly proud: his name, William Edward, which is a right royal one, and his standing in his German class. Be that as it may, “Bill'' is a jolly, good fellow who always has a smile and hardly ever a frown. He is a very modest, retiring and bashful boy, and will not converse with a lady unless another boy happens to be with him. “Bill” is a great basketball player, but he will never follow that profession. He intends to be a Lutheran preacher. No one will ever fall asleep in church if he preaches, for he will use words of learned length and wondrous sound. “Bill” is a great stay-at-home and has never gone far from the paternal roof-tree, yet he once dared to go to Hinterleiter’s one Saturday night. Beware, William. 29 Solon Youse Breidigam, . . . R. D. 2, Mertztown. The towering sun with sway of light. Held fast the gates that barred the night And gave a light that summer day, Till Solon safely passed the bay. Ushered into this world some time after (lie fall of Troy, he is doomed to become a “Vir gilian,” and undoubtedly in order to make his object more realistic he will see the old country and in fancy will again with Aneas live over his wanderings. We presume he will do this on his honeymoon. He like the Grecian Solon says, “Count no man happy until he is (dead) through school.'' Cupid’s arrows have never left their traces upon his heart, lie is a regular mid-day pavement straggler and noon customer at Betsy Dikeman’s place. We presume he will be an agent for Allen’s foot ease and smelling salts during the coming summer. Naomi Brensinger, Fleetwood. Trust not too much to that enchanting face; Beauty’s a charm, but soon the charm will pass.—Drydkn. Dame Nature was in a happy mood on a certain day in April in 1895. Our bright-eyed Naomi saw the light of the world for the first time that day. Her favorite color in middle year was gray with a capital G. She is the champion winker of the class, a fact which may have conspired with her varied charms to capture Harold. She has him dangling at her apron strings and he will be at her beck and call all his days. Naomi is an ambitious girl and intends to take up “Domestic Science.” She is a good little girl with such entrancing manners and so many engaging qualities, that we know of a person, who interested by her spirited flow of words, forgot to get off the trolley. Add to these qualities her future training in the above-named occult science and you will have the inevitable result: Harold will be a life-long captive, forced to eat “food” prepared by a “scientific (?) cook.” 3° Dora Ruth Brown, Friedensburg. Mortals that would follow me. Love Virtue; she alone is free.—Milton. Quality or quantity, did you ask? Here’s a merry maid from Friedensburg that has both. Dora was the “gift” brought by a hurricane gale on a stormy February night. No wonder she is so progressive and believes in doing things up “ Brown.” Having gleaned the home schools of their knowledge she embarked for Keystone. Here we find her active and faithful as ever. She was the president of the V. W. C. A. and one of the ‘‘trusty ten” on the commencement program. She believes in “a strong mind in strong body.” Her gymnastic feats, consisting in anything from walking the chalk-line to scaling the parallel bars, at times made the girls stand in awe and amazement. Since “distance lends enchantment to the view” and safety to the spectator, the girls always viewed these feats from the farther end of the building. We feel proud of Dora and are confident that she will be a skillful and successful moulder of immortal minds. Pearl Elda Butz, ..... Oh! dream of joy! is this indeed The house of Pearl I see? Is this its gate? Is this its door? It's there I’ll have my tea. This is the expression made by “Cy” after his long walk from Macungie to see this little girl, who was born June 29, 1894. Pearl has attended co-educational schools all her life, and as a result is very fond of the opposite sex. Besides attending school she tells us she has gone “visiting.” From Monday to Wednesday she is telling of the fine times she had on her last visit “over Sunday,” while from Wednesday to Friday she is planning for the next week. Pearl constantly watches the records as they are made by Boston’s “Cy” Young, Chicago’s “Cy” Young and Macungie’s “Cy” Young, who make their marks at Boston, Chicago and Butz’s parlor, respectively. She will in the future no doubt lie illustrating to her pupils the value of practical domestic science. 31 Ellen Mary Cauley, Delano. Oh. blest with temper whose unclouded ray Can make tomorrow as cheerful as today.—Pope. Some time before the “blowing-up” of the Maine, Ellen Mary Cauley first saw the light of day. The loving parents soon wheeled their darling daughter from Mahanoy City to Delano, where she was known for her fondness for animal friends, and caused her mother much trouble by tormenting the “pussies.” She always had an extreme liking for books, and ever since she has been able to toddle we find this young lady busily improving her mental capabilities. She did this partly in the public and high schools of Delano, after which she decided as a step in advance to come to K. S. N. S. While here she was a most studious personage, but never lost her love for a “pussy.” Never mind, “Nell.” I his young lady is also a talented musician and promises to become a second Paderewski. She expects to make teaching her life-work, unless some lover of animal life causes her to change her opinion. Edna Buck Clemens, Birdsboro. For all that fairc is, is by nature good ; That is a sign to know the gentle blood.—Spenser. “ Mark Twain’s” daughter, did you say? Not in flesh but in spirit. Little Edna is always happy, full of humor, and is more fun than a barrel of monkeys. Whence doth she come? List, we still hear the heralds of Birdsboro proclaiming her birth. Believing that wit without wisdom is folly, Edna straightway gleaned the Birdsboro schools of their knowledge and then came to Kutztown. Edna is one of Philo’s brilliant stars and an earnest physicist, scientist and spiritualist. She is trying to discover some method in the heavens above, in the earth beneath, or in the waters under the earth, by means of which a pleasant black-haired, brown-eyed beauty may make her feelings known Without giving him an unfavorable impression. Just keep on, Edna, the world hath great need of such as thee. 32 Anna Boon Conway,......................................................Minersville. Blushes may come, and blushes may go But freckles hang on forever.—Scott. On a stormy day in March, 1893 (a month which brings forth the freckles), a quiet and submissive little girl made her appearance at Jack-sons, Pa(tch). After attending the Buck Run schools, she came to the Keystone State Normal School, where she has been a student for three years, and has shown her true and good spirit by active work as a leader of Bible Band, also in Y. W. C. A. work. “Nan” is our champion tennis player and carried away a medal on that memorable field day. She expects to go to Bryn Mawr, and some day, perhaps, we shall see her teaching languages in a college. But we all have our doubts, as “Nan’s” favorite posture is to kneel (Neale), and we think “Nan” will be practicing in domestic science. Maroarkt Hannah Corwin, Mohnton. There be none of Beauty’s daughters With a magic like thee.—Byron. Hush! When the whip-poor-will sang Marguerite this sweet little girl warbled her first lay and broke the stillness of the Ryeland night. How quiet she is and so harmless, too. But, beware, for when once she gets started in using her slang, not all the king’s horses and all the king’s men can ever expect to stop her again. Little Hannah soon qualified herself as an expert student and boxmaker. Having secured her sheepskin at Womelsdorf, she migrated to Kutztown. Margaret was an earnest student, a faithful Philo, being one of its representatives at anniversary, and a conscientious Y. Y. C. A. member. She was, however, especially fond of the choir, since it brought back fond recollections. She thinks most of the choir selections are fine, but “I’d hate to tell you” that Harry(gan) is her only favorite. Such a bright spirit and such golden qualities must find a place in the world, and surely such a quiet, timid, bashful little creature will not always remain in obscurity. Cheer up, Margaret, “cast thy net again into the deep,” as we know that an abundance of success will bless your every effort. 33 Charlotte Iha Chessman Richland Center. Full of a wild and irrepressible mirth Like a young sunbeam to the gladdened earth.—Norton. Some time after the battle of Waterloo Bucks County was highly honored by becoming the birthplace of Charlotte Ida Cressman. Her early years were spent in her beloved Bucks, where she received small beginnings of an edu cation and at length graduated from Ouakertown High School. To add to her store of knowledge she entered Normal. Here she soon realized that a spiritual training was also an important phase in her education. This fact explains her regular Sunday school attendance. It is a question whether or not it was there that she met that charming new member of the class, but it is well known that “she so tall and he so small” were often seen on the tennis courts on fair spring days. Next year will find her a teacher. Since she is likely to spend too much of her time instructing her pupils about Jean Paul Jones’ great sea-fight we feel safe in predicting that she will never reach the age of gray hairs in the schoolroom. Paul LeRoy Cressman, Springtown. A horse! a horse! My kingdom for a horse!—Shakespeare. Paul LeRoy Cressman, a young optimist, first became visible at Springtown, Bucks County, Pa., on the 29th day of April in the year of our Lord 1893. Master Paul attended the public and the high school of his native district. When he left high school he had developed enough judgment to understand that he had only a “little learning.” “And straightway” he came to Kutz-town. Through a series of “continuous differentiations and integrations” Paul finally evolved into a fast tennis player and a rough rider. Mr. Cressman has, however, not neglected his spiritual duties. He was one of the delegates of the Y. M. C. A. to the Northfield students’ conference in the summer of 1910. I Ie has always been a faithful Bible Band teacher and has been chairman of the Mission Band. He is a faithful member of Philo. “It doth not yet appear ” just what Paul will be. His dad is an ordinary school teacher, but Paul says he would rather be a traveling salesman or a temperance lecturer. 34 Francis Henry Curtis, Jr., ... R. D. i, Waymart O Curtis. O Curtis! Tender and trewe!—Holland. fust a few days before Thanksgiving, 1892, when all the farmers of Clinton Township, Wayne County, were preparing to celebrate that important day a still greater event happened in the arrival of a lusty youngster at a certain typical farmer’s home. The youngster looked so much like his “daddy” that it was decided to name him Francis Henry Curtis, Jr. After graduating from Clinton High School, Francis decided to enter Normal. Our class certainly was exceedingly fortunate in having this one representative from the “land of the rising sun” (Wayne County, I’a.). 1 he slim, tall fellow that rooms with the “prof” was very popular among his classmates. He was an ardent Keystonian. In politics he says lie’s a Prohibitionist. Doubtless this party will some day offer him some advantageous political position. Until then we know that “the rather frequent feature on the tennis courts” will have a brilliant career as a teacher in dear old Keystone State. Eari. Franklin Degler, This fellow's wise enough to play the fool; And. to do that well, craves a kind of wit.—Shakespeare. “Jimmie” says he is a Socialist—at least every one knows that he is always in for a good time at social places. He is a true specimen of optimism. But did any one ever hear of such a modest young man? He will not tell his age, but he says he will celebrate his one-luindredth birthday on October 7, 1994, if he lives that long. This will never come to pass if he takes many more falls as he did once-upon-a-time. “ Ivarl F.” was taking a ride on his favorite “Dobbin.” He injured his head slightly. This member of the 1912 class is also an amateur performer. After following his father’s footsteps along the road of teaching, he expects to join Ringling Bros. He is a firm believer of leap year, but he wishes that the boys had at least one privilege; namely, to accept more than one girl at a time. It breaks his heart to refuse. 35 Florence Hannah Deibert, ..... Orwigsburg. A child of our grandmother Eve, a female; or for thy more sweet understanding, a woman.—Shakespeare. Lost, strayed or stolen. We mean the statistics, not the girl. Therefore, we do not know whether she saw the inauguration of Cleveland at the beginning of his second term or not. We know, however, that the fortunate town was Orwigsburg. All we know of her education is that it was so far advanced that she could enter the Junior class in 1909. While here she was always industrious, but somehow she seemed to get her “cousins” slightly twisted at anniversary times. Of course, she is not noted for an especially good memory, so that may have caused the confusion. Tennis seemed to attract her somewhat. Sad that the rainy weather in the spring term always kept her from playing with the “middle year” partner and hence there was no v7o (ing). We will not try to prophesy her future. The stars, however, predict for her home, happiness and Heaven. Robert Monroe Deii.y, Catasauqua. We grant although he had much wit He was very shy of using it.—Butler. Now, behold, O class! Look thou on our affliction, or, in plainer words, on Robert Monroe Deily. Robert was born at Catasauqua and migrated to Keystone. Here Robert correlated play with work and became famous as our star left-fielder. “ Bob ” is cheerfulness personified. No wonder he likes to roam in Pleasant Valley and occasionally hunt for a May bell (Mabel). Deily is an ardent Bible student; he thinks all the books are good, but has developed an exceptional liking for “Ruth.” Be not mistaken, however, for “ Bob ” does not spend all his spare time in concentration on the beauties of “Ruth,” but is an expert letter writer. What time and patience he bestows upon those epistolary masterpieces, and just to think that they may some day be instrumental in raising still higher the standards of West Chester. We feel sure that ere long Uncle Sam will discover this youth’s exceptional talents in this line and enlist him as a private secretary. 36 Paul James DkLong, Bowers. Comb down his hair, look ; look ; it stands upright.—Shakespeare. Ever since that natal day, with the heart of a Napoleon, he struggles along life’s way. For twenty-one long years he has entertained his desire to cast his vote for the nation’s choice. In iy12 he has realized his dream and undoubtedly helped to swell the ballot number for “Teddy,” the “maybe” president. He has ever been loyal to him by wearing his “Teddy” cut. Nothing so sweet, so soothing as a draught of Deppen's B— when served bv “ I.oretta. He used to “pull weeds” on his father's farm before he came to “Old Keystone,” but he will retire from his position after graduation. Anthony Cerame DeMaria, Relay res. Shall 1 go on?—Or have I said enough?—Milton. In the land of grapes and olives, where the north winds never come, in the sunny land of Castavella, Sicily, this babe was born. Six years after 1890 found him at Kelayres, Pa. He was not only the teacher’s task, and a spitball artist at school, but after school days Anthony explored the mysteries of the coal mines. He is skilled in this work. But mining was not the life for “De.” Give him facts and principles. In his search for these he found Keystone Normal. Here he is a cheerful, industrious student. “De” has not only developed intellectually, but physically he passed the six-foot mark. This together with his splendid disposition made him a star on the basketball floor. As to his emotional self it would scarcely do to call him a “Hartman,” rather a heartless man. A score of years will undoubtedly find this “Demosthenes” in the Senate chamber pleading for woman’s suffrage. 37 Ida May Dennison, Zion Grove. Yours is a soul irregularly great. Which, wanting temper, yet atxninds with heat.—Dryden. Behold ! Look who we have here! A girl as long as her name, with a substantial understanding and a lovely and happy countenance. Ida is a very conscientious girl and thinks the parable of the fishes just grand (Grant), while she wonders if they could have been trout(man). Her marvelous voice, which like a rattler is heard as soon as it begins to unwind, distinguished her in society. As vice-president of the Y. W. C. A. she was sent to Granville, Ohio. Ida has had a year’s experience in moulding angels out of clay and will make a grand success at the work. However, like Tennyson's “Princess,” the stars decree that she will not be always in school, but will, with her happy disposition and philanthropic spirit, make some one’s life a rose-tinted dream. Raymond Warren Dickinson, Mohnton. They say, best men are moulded out of faults And, for the most, become much more the better For being a little bad.—Shakespeare, Can Ray “make things hum?” You bet he can. Born on February the 8th, about a score of years after his father, though the son of a dyer, he is by no means a dead one. Ray possesses rare talent. He was one of Philo’s representatives, is very fond of all his studies, yet he delves most deeply into the mysteries of chemistry. Last year, while experimenting on the chemistry teacher, to separate H.jO into its component elements, using atmospheric pressure as a reducing agent, he was disturbed and forced to discontinue. Lest too much new knowledge might ret|uire the unnecessary expense of an enlarged text, our experimenter was given a week’s vacation, sacrificing present knowledge for future generations. Nor is the intellectual the only side he cultivates. In the physical realm he is a star in basketball and baseball, while his emotional self is so far developed that he is exceedingly fond of pets, yet “Kitty” is by far his favorite. We know you will make things hum in the luture, Ray, and look to see you at the head of a Western college league before many years elapse. 3 Louis Edgar Dieruff, Forced from her presence, and condemn’d to live! Unwelcome freedom, and unthank’d reprieve, drydkn. The eleventh of June, 1889, certainly was an eventful clay in Minersville. Amid the singing of birds and blooming roses the stork dropped a bundle at the home of William P. Dieruff, 227 North Fifth .Street. He spent his boyhood days in the land of black diamonds and graduated from Minersville High School in 1908. But his good parents earnestly desiring to enlarge the capacity of his cranium sent him here to Normal. From the very start Louis always was an earnest worker, and we line! him identified with all work tending to make a name for his class. He is very fond of music, but, of course, there s a reason for that ; he says it’s for Alma Mater s sake,” emphasizing the first word Alma. Louis has been an active worker in the Normal Orchestra, the Euterpean, and the Chapel Choir. He has also been identified in athletics on the diamond, not for size but for quality. His future wrork will lie that of a teacher, and in a few years we expect to find him conspicuous in educational matters. May Amanda Dietrich, R. D. 2, Kempton. A prophet, that. Cassandra like Tells truth without belief.—Anon. On a bright morning in May, a lovely little babe was brought to the township of Albany. Her name as we all know is May Amanda Dietrich. She attended the schools of Albany, after which she came to Keystone State Normal School to complete her education. When she graduated from public schools, she had an ideal escort, and we all know that she will have the same escort when she graduates from Keystone .State Normal School. Childhood affairs are very seldom forgotten. May is fond of all history, but ‘Alfred the great is her favorite hero. We wonder what is the idea of that sign in her room, ‘‘Girls, are you not au’are of it, that this is cjuiet hour?” She is a faithful member of the Philo Society and never thinks of shirking. 1 his will be of a great advantage to her during the few years that she will teach. 39 Eva Dise, t . Lyons. Myrtle Anna Doll, O woman! in our hours of ease, Uncertain, coy and hard to please -Scott. 1 he first of June, 1895, was a happy day for I’apa and Mamma Dise. “Little Eva” was added to their family. As her name would indicate, she is a lively girl, who can in half a minute persuade you that she is endowed with the “gift of tongues.” Eva has a decided propensity for star gazing.” She is well qualified for this, since she can outlook everybody. She has a fine sense of humor and is the crack joker of the class. What a wonderful combination of good qualities for some fortunate youth! Eva intends to graduate under the new course, and by that time will be old enough to become a “schoolmarm.” Not long will she be one, however, for in the course of her “star gazing” last year, she was caught in the orbit of a particularly fine colored star. Its name, or rather his, was commonly “Rufus, the Red.” Saginaw. She is pretty to walk with And witty to talk with And pleasant, too, to think on.—Anon. 1 his is ”'rhe Doll.” Some years ago, amidst the clamor and noise of July 4th, the Queen of hairies directed her journey to Saginaw, York County, and ushered into the home of Jacob Doll this little fairy, “Myrtie.” Myrtle was the delight of the household, for she was so witty. W hen but a small child she displayed a natural aptitude for music, which now makes her popular among her friends. She received her earlier education in the schools of Saginaw and later continued her education at the York Academy. “Dolly” now became so much interested in music that she decided to specialize in this vast subject. She entered the K. S. N. S. in the fall term of 1910. After she had been specializing for some time, she was persuaded to take up the regular course, which she did, and is now one of the loved ones of her class. She is a member of Philo Literary Society and is very industrious, always busy only when she sits in her room softly warbling her favorite song, “None he loves but me,” as fancy gently bears her to the “Isle of Carl,” where dwells the ideal of her dreams. 40 Flora Elizabeth Dreibklbis, ..... Royersford. While the dimple and blush, starting soft to her cheek Told the tale that her lips were too timid to speak.—Osgood. Amidst the April showers some years ago, there came to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Dreibelbis, of Royersford, this charming little girl, Flora. vShe was a very intelligent child and as soon as she was old enough she entered the primary school of Royersford. She completed the course in the public schools of her home town, graduating from the high school in the spring of 1910. After graduation she journeyed to K. S. N. S. in order to prepare for the fascinating profession of teaching. Through the influence of her friends at Normal she was induced to join “Good Old Philomathean Literary Society.” Flora is endowed with a very sympathetic spirit and is always glad to perform some act of kindness for her friends. While at Normal Flora roomed “all alone,” but, dear reader, we hardly think she shall always remain alone. Surely, there is some one who shall some day claim tliis charming little lass. She says she intends taking a course in music and spend her time in making people happy. With all best wishes for her success and happiness, we leave “Flo” to live her usual happy life. Esther Elizabeth Dry, .... My smiles must be sincere or not at all Byron. Let the heavens rejoice and let the earth be glad, for after the flood all was Dry. Such was the joy that little Esther ushered in one beautiful October morning. Esther grew and waxed strong until 1910, when she came to Keystone Normal. Here she showed us that one dare not always take things by the trade mark; for she is a happy-hearted, faithful Philo, and an excellent student. Her peace of mind could not be disturbed by anything less than the disaster which cost poor “Fido’s” life. What a comfort those girls were! In the future, judging from circumstantial evidence, this little girl will be eloquent, be happy, be successful, but surely not forever Dry. 41 Lenhartsville. Marion Rett a Edwards, Coaldale. You are not for obscurity design’d Hut like the sun, must cheer all human kind.—Dryden. This young woman hails from Coaldale, Schuylkill County. She is a young woman of excellent qualities and is a thorough optimist. She wears a smile that won’t come off about seventy-nine per cent, of the time. She was born on a beautiful morning and we suppose the first impression of beauty still exists. While still young she attended the public schools of her native district. But sooner or later she realized that her store of knowledge and culture were still woefully deficient. She proceeded straightway to Normal. At this institution Miss Edwards has proven herself a faithful and conscientious student. Her work in society and V. W. C. A. are likewise praiseworthy. Coming from a mining town it is not likely that she will enter that profession, but will therefore more likely enter the trade of teaching. Mabel Dora Erney, R. D. 2, Coopersburg. A face with gladness overspread Soft smiles, by human kindness, bred.- Cowpf.r. It was September 3, 1891, when Mabel came to brighten the home of her parents. We all know she did and she is one of the few that do. Mabel received her early education in the schools of Chestnut Hill. After graduating from the Chestnut Hill High School, she came to K. S. N. vS. to continue her studies and prepare for her future work. She is a hard worker and paid all her attention to her studies, for she didn’t pay any to the opposite sex. We have been told that for some reason or other Mabel could not agree with them in her early school days and was often found “scrapping.” She is a member of the Keystone Society and was a member that never shirked her duty. 42 Marie Bogh Faulkner, ..... Hokendauqua. Deaf, Kiddy, helpless, left alone To all my friends, a burden grown.—Swift. In the very pretty little town of Hokendauqua, November 16, 1894, the schoolmarm and musician, Marie Bogh Faulkner, made her appearance. Fiven though she is the only child she lias overcome the obstacles which are expected of an only child. Marie received her preparatory education at the Hokendauqua public school, winning first honors. She is also a member of that famous literary organization called the Keystone Literary Society. Marie went home frequently, and while on her way she looked with longing eyes at Muhlenberg as it came in sight. Ask her to tell you about “Lizard Creek Junction.” In two years we all expect to see her packing off for Philadelphia or Boston, there to become a famous musician; but her great desire is to take a course in domestic science. Of course, she has her own reasons for it. Leah Helen Faust, You run about, my little maid; Your limbs they are alive. Wordsworth. One fine day, among the hills in the little Pennsylvania Dutch town of Albany, a little baby was dropped at the home of Francis and Rosa Faust. Who else could it be, but Leah Helen? She attended the schools at Albany, but finally landed at this Normal. Leah is a very small girl, but she is gifted with talents of which her friends envy her, especially of her pictures and art needlework. She seems somewhat quiet, but those who know her think different. She is very fond of humming the tune to that popular song known as “ Bill (Claude) Bailey, won't you please come home!” Leah has turned traitor to her class, for she is always wearing the middle year class colors, but with it all we wish her success. She is a member of the Philomathean Literary Society. 43 Esther Elizabeth Fisher Adamstown. A perfect woman, nobly planned To warn, to comfort, and command.—Wordsworth. This strawberry blossom, Esther Elizabeth Fisher, broke all the rules of nature, and instead of coming in May appeared one bleak wintry day in January to brighten the Fisher homestead by her “brilliancy.” But Esther grew and it was decided that such brilliancy needed training; thus we lind Esther in the public schools of Adamstown and later on as a member of the Senior class of 1912 at Keystone. Here she was a member of the V. W. C. A. and faithfully performed her duties as treasurer. Philo Society also was fortunate in having Esther as one of her members, and she performed her duty well at anniversary. In her middle year she was interested in the ancient painters, “Raphael” being her favorite. Esther has already taught several terms in the burgher schools, calling her children together by a bell. In the future, although Esther intends teaching in the burgher schools, she will call her pupils together by a horn; then we expect to find Esther a “hornberger” teacher very soon. Evelyn Essick Fox, Royersford. A sound so fine there’s nothing lives ’Twixt it and silence.—Knowles. Behold, the smallest girl in the school! But she is by no means the youngest. She is older than she looks. I.ovely nineteen. Evelyn dearly loves to play house. “Little folks should be seen and not heard,” is an old proverb, but Evelyn is the exception to this rule, as you can hear her melodious voice above the rest wherever she may chance to be. She is a strong supporter of the suffragette movement. Just get her started on this particular subject and she will become quite eloquent. This little but mighty creature is a member of the Philomathean Literary Society. She expects to be a “school-marm,” but way down in her heart she cherishes a hope of making a cozy little home for two and the putting of her domestic science into use. 44 F rackville. Martha Euzabkth Frew, Hut there arc deeds which should not pass away And names that must not wither. Byron. In the highlands of Schuylkill County, on the 13th of February, 1893, Mattie Frew entered upon her earthly career. The mines and stores did not suspend business for the day, but this was because they did not find it out in time. In future years this will come to pass, for Mattie’s diligence and sincerity are surely attributes to success. After graduating from the Frackville High School, wishing to further develop her splendid abilities, her parents wisely entered her as a student here at Normal. Mattie is one of those girls who makes the most of opportunities, and we all can confirm this statement who were members of her section. The members of the Philo Society made a wise choosing in electing her as an anniversary speaker, for she was a noble representative. Iler society work is commendable. Her present home is Frackville and they say it has its charms (for Mattie). She intends to teach school and we are sure she will be a credit to Schuylkill County. Minnie Mjnningrr Frey, Thine was the short, the song, the burst, the joy Which sweet from childhood’s rosy lips resoundeth. —Norton. Some time after the battle of Gettysburg this spark of humanity kindled the sleeping world. The world may have slept before Minnie came into it, but we feel assured that it has never slept since. Minnie is one of the noisiest girls at school. Whenever a noise is heard Minnie is to blame. At school Minnie has been a model student—we do not mean an imitation of the real thing—and has attended faithfully to her lessons. Literature seems to be her hobby, and she delights in looking up questions, especially when the reference books are not to be found. Philo Society has the honor of claiming this young lady as one of her energetic and progressive members. We cannot foretell the future of this maid definitely. For the present she intends to bring the “angels out,” but not for always, because we can surely say that there never was a fry (Frey) that could not find a hungry soul waiting to be fed. Athol. 45 Russell John Freyman, ...... Litzenberg. Vain man, forbear; of cares, unload thy mind; Forget thy hopes, and give thy fears to wind.—Creech. Russell arrived loo late to beat the Greek athletes at their own tricks, nevertheless he no doubt excels all of them. He is a basketball fiend and does not mind being double-lipped for a day or so as a consequence of a game. Margaret occupies a great deal of his attention, and so having her and athletics on his brain, is it a wonder that he frequently forgets his books? He is inexperienced and young, but not quite as verdant as those green carnations which he bought on St. Patrick’s Day. He is a well-known classicist, but holds the opinion that Pluto was a scientist. Oley. A smile or kiss, as he will use the art, Shall have the cunning skill to break a heart.—Shirley. There surely was some commotion in Oley on June 26, 1893. The cause lay in the fact that a bouncing baby boy named Arthur Stitzer Fry had made his appearance. This lad, the hero of many a well-fought game on the diamond, on account of his size, from the very first gave promise of being a successful lumberman. Hut despite such predictions the lad had a will of his own and finally decided to become a disciple of Aesculapius. He began his education in the ] ublic schools of Oley and after a short time spent in the Oley High School entered Normal. After teaching for a few years he will study medicine. As a physician we predict that he will have lleetfoot horses, and will not limit his practice by county lines, but will make many a trip to Lehigh for ferns and to Schuylkill for Yost apples. The star pitcher of our team and favorite of all the young ladies, was the pride of the class. A long and prosperous career is our hearty wish to dear old Fry. 46 Arthur Stitzer Fry, R. D. i, Macungie. Helen Ruth Fusselman, . She was idle, and slept till the sunshiny weather; O, children take long to grow.—Ingelow. While the sun was slowly rising o’er the eastern hills of “peanut town,” on the 6th day of April, this black-haired, brown-eved beauty first showed her smiling face. Since the first years of any movement must be a struggle for the survival of the fittest, Helen struggling against the forces of nature and various other forces (please don’t ask what kind), successfully graduated from Spring Creek High School. She entered Normal with the class of 1912 and distinguished herself in Latin, history and social culture. Having a voracious appetite, and being somewhat it could not be satisfied, she boarded at home. Most every evening a dim speck could be seen at about four o’clock on the eastern horizon, and at length vanishing from sight would enter the Fusselman homestead. Helen lately made her debut in the Philo Society and is now a shining star. She has not yet planned her destiny, but doubtless it will be that of a school mistress, until a more charming, more interesting, more'romantic opportunity presents itself. Robert Alvin Gallmoyer, ...... Topton. In February eighteen ninety three. When first the lovely light of clay saw he. The glass, the card, the cue, the pufling roll. These are the dieties of many a soul. “I’itty,” as he is known among his friends of Topton, is a pretty lively chap. He is an all-around athlete full of life and fun. Sorrow never enveloped his mind and a failure to him is a victory. He is interested in pugilism, and no doubt will some day be the “white man’s hope.” However, of late, his heart has been paralyzed with Rhea’s love sparks, and undoubtedly will have to undergo an operation in the near future. He is an active member of the Topton “Cue” Club, “Give me a pill,” “Who’s on yet?” Also a member of the Topton nine and noted for his “washline curve.” He is in doubt as to his future work, but we presume he will be a representative of the “Recruit” Manufacturing, . 47 Emily Edith Gauker, S. Florence Gerhart, West Leesport. Happy am I; from care I’m free, Why ain't they all contented like me? “Giggler,” as Emily was lovingly called by her classmates, never knew a serious moment, with one exception, until she came to Normal. That time she nearly Hooded West Leesport, the home of her birth, with tears for her beloved Trix. Trix was a faithful friend and companion, hence she mourned for him months afterward and was constantly bewailing her dog Trix. “Buster” arrived to comfort her and since then she has been coveting learning’s prize. Emily prefers walks in the gloaming after she has traveled by steam or electricity. She has a reputation for being the greatest and most irresponsible “giggler yet discovered. 123A S. 6th St., Reading She towers above the others Her smaller weaker brothers Like pine trees on a height.—Anderson. This sympathetic young lady was born at Heidelberg, Berks County, at a date so distant that the young lady herself could not give direct particulars. Even in her youth Florence was very fond of animals, especially dogs. Her father “does anything ” for a livelihood. Florence graduated from Reading High School in 1908, after which she came to Normal. She is a member of the Philomathean Society and held the office of chaplain for some time. Florence is fond of reciting certain lines from choice poems such as: Under a spreading elm(er) tree. The Smith a mighty man is he. Her only future desire is to do some good for mankind, and as she is by no means the smallest member of the class we predict a bright future for Florence. 48 Sara Rebecca Gerhart, R. D. i, Reading. Of all the girls that are sc smart There's none like pretty Sally.—Carey. Sara Rebecca Gerhart was born at Grill, Berks County, in 1893. Her father, who is one of our jolly Berks County farmers, sent Sara to West Reading High School. After her graduation she entered Normal. Sara is an orator of some merit and Philo can well be proud of so faithful a member. Sara was unusually fond of trigonometry and spent much time working “short” problems. Sara “expects” to teach when she finishes, but as she herself doesn't seem to know exactly what she will do, time will only tell. But no matter what she undertakes we predict for her a bright future. Blodwen Griffith, 613 For no one has heard A whispered word From this silent girl of ours.—Anon. Everybody at home seemed particularly delighted when this “genius” arrived in 1892. Of course, she’s from Slatington. We always get that sort from Slatington. After completing a post-graduate course at her home town she came to K. S. N. S. for one year. Miss Griffith has been an extensive traveler, and if you should happen to know her you will find her interesting along that line. After a college course Miss Griffith will teach, and she’ll be a successful one. Franklin St., Slatington. 49 Leo Miller Grill, Mohnton. The man who smokes, thinks like a sage and acts like a Samaritan Lytton. I here was; yes, there was, once such an alert boy in this elass that vigilant watchers sought in vain to see his silent shadow scale the winding stairs. Soon after the ark landed on Avarat, little Leo alighted at Mohnton. 1 hrough working little, playing much, and eating still more he soon was ready to receive a crown of laurels from Mohnton High School. Straightway he turned his way toward Kutztown. “Grillie being skilled not only in the mysteries of the night, but also those of the classroom and athletic field, was a favorite among the boys. Intellectually he has developed splendidly, while physically we give him the crown. Leo is our star athlete, both in basketball and baseball. Morally we are glad to record a great improvement, for he has entirely cut out “Beers,” and, of course we do not blame him for liking a “ Kiss.” Go forth with a will, Leo. 'flic world has need of such as thee. Cling to your Prohibition principles, seek pleasure, seek employment, but forget not to seek a wife. Edna Minerva Grime, Sinking Spring. Talking, she knew not why, and car'd not what Byron. Behold this attractive abbreviation without a period and forever discard the useless mark. Edna Minerva Grime, named after the goddess of wisdom, and like her, casting a ray of enlightenment forth into the centuries, will ever stand as an authority on ferns. She took special work for one year in fern analysis in the anti-zoological apartment of the biological department of the Keystone Normal School, Edna is a very happy girl, and on the slightest provocation emits sound waves not unlike those of a hen-yard early in the spring, when the inmates with maternal affection instruct their young in the food-getting process until the habit is formed. She will make an excellent teacher, and will practice this noble profession until her bark sets sail on the sea of matrimony. 50 Lester Erasmus Gruber, . . . 471 W. Oley St., Reading. A merrier man; Within the limit of becoming mirth, I never spent an hour's talk withal.—Shakespeare. The pleasant-looking face that now greets you is that of Lester Erasmus Gruber. But then how could “Fat” avoid being pleasant-faced when he was born at Mt. Pleasant? Although “Fat” is a native of Berks, he says he likes Lehigh better. At present he resides at 471 West Oley Street, Reading, Pa. Lester was always well liked. As a student he was a hard worker, although his room was often made conspicuous by his absence. In society work he was a good Philo. lie says he would'also have put forth strong efforts as a Bible Band teacher had the life of Ruth been the theme of study. Lester’s one hobby was the study of the heavenly bodies. His favorite position for viewing them was a certain window just outside the society hall. Lester intends to enter Lehigh University before long to take up electrical engineering. As a side-line he may study the petroleum business more fully. Lester will surely be successful both at college and in life after his years of preparation at Normal. Edna Lenora Guedin,.........................................Trexlertown. Though she murmurs the words Of all the birds— Words she has learned to murmur well.—Holland. Here comes Edna, of Trexlertown. She has for the greater part of her life attended the schools of Lehigh County. While in her elementary school career she has foundly nursed the hope that some day she may be the wife of a florist who would raise nothing but “Sweet Williams.’ She has, however, now grown to be a woman and is about to graduate with the class of 1912, and therefore is looking for a “Sweet William, for she says those are easily induced to raise her favorite flower. She has already tried out three W'illiams and is about to try the fourth, whom we trust will be a success. 5i Esther Shellenberger Gulick, Perkasie. Before the day was done her work she sped And never went by candlelight to bed.—Dry den. Esther S. Gulick saw the last smoke of Independence Day rise about a score of years ago, and since then it has been her favorite day. She hails from the crowded city of Perkasie, Bucks County, Pa. After graduation from high school, she came to the Normal. In her middle year, she was a great Biblical student, being interested in the life of “Paul.” This, however, was only an apostolic study. She later decided to take a special course of the complete study of Christ’s disciples. In her middle year she finished the study of “Bartholomew,” but immediately began the study of the great disciple, “John.” Of the last person she is fond and his walks in life are of special interest to her (from Normal to bridge). Much of her time is spent in reading stories about giant killers, the greatest of whom is “Jack,” the nickname of “John.” She is never left in an argument, but always can take her part. Bashfulness is a disposition that never possessed “Es,” for Perkasie does not produce that kind of goods. She is an active member of Philomathean Society. Elizabeth Minner Haas, ...... Boyertown. Her humble gestures make the residue plan. Dumb eloquence persuading more than speech Roscommon. Elizabeth, who is always in for a good time, came to this Normal during the spring term of 1910, after graduating from the Oley High School. “Lizzie,” as she is known by her friends, finds her greatest pleasure in playing tricks on her friends. She is a member of the Y. W. C. A. and also of the Philomathean Literary Society. She is very fond of going out into the fields to watch the different birds or “Vogel” (Fegley). Elizabeth intends to teach for a few years, after which she intends to take up a course in household economics. $2 649 N. 9th St., Reading. Elsie May Hartman, .... She loves much more the night of June Than cold December's wintry moon.—Scott. Elsie May Hartman, the original of the above, was born in the city of Reading, July 19, 1894. Her early education was obtained in the Reading High School, from which she graduated in 1911. Wishing to prepare for the profession of teaching, and being an ardent advocate of co-education, Elsie decided to enter the Keystone State Normal. She came in the fall of 1911 with prospects for a year of hard study. Here the peace of the opposite sex was soon disturbed by her winsome smile, and she is never wanting for admirers. Having pursued the Latin Scientific course before coming here, she continued in that channel. Although not a very great student of sociology, Elsie finds the study of Latin America most “de lightful.” It is hoped that her great desire for travel will finally bring her to the “land of olives and sunshine.” She is an active member of the Keystone Literary Society and the Y. W. C. A. Hannah Meinder Hartman, My heart’s in the West, my heart is not here.—Burns. This is Hannah. She was born during that cold and stormy month of March, in Alsace Township, Berks County. She was but a little girl when the desire seized her to become a school teacher. She entered Normal as a middler in the fall of 1910, and has since proved very successful in her work, graduating cum lamlc. She was a very active member of the Y. W. C. A. and Philo Literary Society. She served as a member of the cabinet of the former association and represented our Y. W. C. A. at the Granville conference. Hannah has some excellent qualities. She always bears in mind the motto, “ Never put off for tomorrow what you can do today.’’ She is truly a friend in need, always being willing to help a more unfortunate friend along. We often wondered why she meditates so much, but we have discovered the reason. She has interests in one of the western states. We think she is planning a trip, but we don’t know when it will be. Stony Creek Mills. 53 Ira Dietrich Heckman, Shoemakersville. Describe him who can An abridgment of all that was pleasant in man.—Goldsmith. Look, 0 classmates, and behold the countenance of Ira Dietrich Heckman, who hails from Shoemakersville on the Schuylkill! A glance at him suffices to say that he was a bright youngster, and we hear that he graduated from Shoemakersville High in 1910 with honors, coming here the same year. In his middle year Ira kept his mind strictly on his books. However, Latin was his specialty and he spent a great deal of time on “regina.” In senior year the “gym” appealed strongly to Ira, and he was anxious to learn the “hops.” Ira is not an enemy of reformed spelling, but when he goes to spell “hops” it comes much more natural to use the old Iinglish—“hoppes.” Ira is a great lover of music—possibly he gets it by induction. His favorite song is “Beulah Land,” and he can entertain you by the hour telling of “Beulah Land” (Allentown). He is an orator of no mean ability and represented Keystone at anniversary. Although unable to foretell the future, we believe the fates have decreed that Ira is to be a lawyer and he'll surely be successful. All luck to you, Ira! Minnie ItORUNct, Heffner, . Lyon Station Spare your breath and chew your gum. Minnie-ha ha” first smiled on this old world somewhere in 1890. As she early showed great intelligence, her parents felt in duty bound to send her to Normal. She therefore “bluffed” her way through a few years of public school and through model school. Minnie is a great linguist and has made a specialty of Latin and German. In both of these languages she has selected one particular word for purposes of her own. In Latin it is the word “sol,” and in German it is the word meaning rail (Riegel). She expects to teach and we see a bright future for her, either as a teacher of Latin in some college, or as an agent for some “gum” company, in which latter position she can chew all the “gum” her heart and body crave so much. 54 Tacy Irene Heigh,......................................... Schuylkill Haven. I saw her upon nearer view A spirit, yet a woman too.—Wordsworth. Behold the Lilliput! Her hopes are high, her voice is high, her temper is high, her value is high, and pray how could Tacy be other than Heigh ? How proud should Schuylkill Haven feel of the little girl they graduated from the high school and tagged for Keystone in 1910. Tacy was always an earnest, conscientious worker in class and a faithful member of the Philo Society and Y. W. C. A. Her vocal culture alone extends in three distinct lines, for she can carol like a bird, make a phonograph blush in a talking match, and bids fair to ecpial Socrates in powers of persuasion. Tacy is almost as intricate a problem to 11s as the atom, that irreducible minimum of organized matter, is to the scientist. Her skill in horsemanship would fit her for the western plain, yet the stars are silent. While her extreme fondness of pet cats altogether upsets the “old maid” theory, the only conclusions we can draw is that l'acy will live happy, live always, but not always alone. Ray Reiff Hertzog, That man that hath a tongue, I say, is no man If with his tongue he cannot win a woman.—Shakkspkarr. Ray Reiff Hertzog, the son of a prominent Oley physician, first made his appearance at Mt. Aetna on July 30, 1893, in the State of Pennsylvania. Consequently, Oley is fast pushing its' way into the progressive world. He gleaned the Oley Township schools of their knowledge and entered the class of 1912 of the K. S. N. S., where he pushed his way into prominence through the agency of the Philomathean Literary Society, in which he takes an active part, and one of whose representatives he was at her last anniversary. By the aid of his untiring zeal he placed himself in the front rank, being one of the best ten chosen by the faculty to represent the class on commencement day. His development is not one-sided, as he was an earnest worker in the Y. M. C. A., having been its treasurer and its delegate to Northfield in the summer of 19x1. Being in stature one of the babies of our class we are not surprised that he prefers to cling to the “spoon” (Spohn). 55 Charles Ira Hoch, Woodside, Del. If tlic heart of this man is depressed with cares The mist is dispelled when-appears -Gay. June 16, 1S92, has gone down in the annals of history at Woodside, Del., as a date of great importance. For on this day was ushered into the quiet and solitude of that peaceful village Charles Ira Hoch. Hoch, son of the village postmaster, attended the public schools of his native town. Here he showed early evidence of skill with the mit. In 1909 he entered the Dover High School, and later the Lebanon High School, finally landing at the Keystone State Normal in the spring of 1910. Charles found a ready place behind the bat, and in the following spring was elected captain of the team. But not only in this field has Ira been active. As a member of Philo Society he has served two successive terms as president. It is Hoch’s ambition to become a surgeon, and judging from the interest he frequently takes and the skill he displays at the “ Temple,” he is sure to make good. Mabel Florence Hoffman,............................................Hamburg. She sees her image in the glass— How fair a thing to gaze upon!—Moulton. This is one of the Hamburg “bunch.” The Keystone girls always awaited the coming of the Hamburg girls for styles. They always set the styles. Now Mabel is good-looking as you can see, and she has traveled a great deal in her young life, for she is only nineteen. Even at the age of six months she traveled all the way from Hamburg to Hummelstown. Mabel is a member of . W . C. A. and is a faithful member. And she never shirked in society. Automobiles look good to her, and some day she expects to run her own. .She is musically inclined and accompanies the school orchestra. 56 Joseph Kettering Holunger, I thank God I am as honest as any man living that is an old man and no honcster than I.—Shakespeare. What a stir there was in the congregation of Reverend Hollinger on the 18th of May, 1891, can be ascertained by asking any of the good members of that church. It was all about “Holly,” and it was with a proud heart, when six years later, his father took him to his first teacher in public school. He attended Annville schools till he was a junior in the high school, always being a leader among the boys in athletic games of all sorts. In 1909, however, he left his home in Palmyra and came to Normal. His three years here have made for him inseparable friends. His favorite play is ‘‘The Coining of Ruth.” We find “Holly” a prominent character in both baseball and basketball. Having been captain of the basketball team in his senior year, his cool head and hard work helped to win many victories. “Joe” stands on the Republican platform. He is a member of the Philomathean Literary .Society. He expects to teach for a while, but intends to enter some college. Good luck to you, Joe.” We are sure you won’t forget to return to Kutztown (Park Avenue) now and then. Florence Irene Hontz, . Paekerton Road, Lehighton. Scarce from her lips the word had rushed When deep the conscious maiden blushed.—Scott. Florence Irene, this very studious girl, came to Normal, the fall term of 1910, from Lehighton, at which place all her girlhood days were spent. She graduated from the Paekerton High School with the class of 1910, of which she was one of the prominent members. Florence is rather a bashful girl, but it is not said that she is free of Cupid’s dart, for previous to her coming here she was very fond of taking drives with one of the opposite sex, who is especially fond of attending her class banquets. She is a faithful member of the V. W. C. A. and also of the Keystone Literary Society. As far as fates predict she will be a faithful teacher for a few years, after which we will hear about her being at Kaston Academy. Florence, why? Route 4, Lebanon. 57 Beulah May Hoppes, . 1512 Turner St., Allentown. If to her share some female errors fall. Look on her face, and you’ll forget them all.—Pope. A peanut, did you say? No, not exactly a peanut, but Beulah May Hoppes, who, although she now hails from peanut town, formerly lived in Mahanoy City, where she learned her A, B, C’s. Graduating from Allentown High in 1910, Beulah honored the illustrious Middle class by her presence. Now Beulah, being the product of the twentieth century, is a modern girl and doesn’t believe in letting her studies interfere with the forces that are necessary to mould the twentieth century girl. When it came to music, Beulah could sing anything from ragtime to sacred music. Keystone Society recognized her oratorical ability, and elected her to serve at anniversary. Flowers especially appeal to Beulah, yet she thinks that among all the fairest of the earth there is none so fair as the “Iras” (iris). Robert Rhoads Hoppes, ...... Topton. So good, so conscientious, so very true His motto is, “This one thing I’ll do” And lie’s doing it with all his might. For h returns very late at night. On July 21, 1892, a star alighted on our mother earth, having a splendor that overcame all the rest. His parents sent him to the Normal School so as to develop his already shining splendor. While he was here his triumphs were many and worth while. Outside of school hours Robert writes poetry and studies law and politics. He is a Democrat and by no means a silent one. He is ready to meet any member of the Socialist party in argument. His greatest joy (which has become a joy by much repetition) is to take long cross-country walks every Saturday night, except when he takes part in the Philo program. These walks, funny as it is, have for a long time led to the town of Hancock, but now, since some family formerly living at Hancock changed their place of abode to a place near Bowers, his walks are also taking this direction. Since then he regularly attends the Bowers church meetings. 58 Mabel Olive Huntzinger, ...... Hegins. • This done, she sung and caroll’d out so clear That men and angels might rejoice to hear.—Drydbn. “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth,” a little later he created little Mabel. Ever since the day of her birth this world has been a better world. She has been praising the Lord with her melodious voice ever since the days of her youth. Mabel graduated from the Hegins High School in 1910. Then, realizing that there were still a few facts in the realms of science and philosophy that she might imbibe, she entered the Middle class at K. S. N. S. the following fall. Mabel always did what she was told and was a hard worker in class, in society and in Y. W. C. A. In the future she will enter the teaching profession, but will not stay in it longer than is convenient. Harriet Beulah Huyett, ...... Birdsboro. So even ran her line of life That neighbors thought it odd.—Saxe The exact place of this young lady’s birthplace is Union Township, one-half mile from Birdsboro. Beulah's father is proprietor of a shoe factory. After spending two years in Birdsboro High School, she came to Normal. Beulah don't like the opposite sex “so very much,” but her thoughts seemed to tell on her when she said she liked Rohrbach (rhubarb) pie. She is a member of Keystone Literary Society. As to her future occupation she has not settled this question as yet, but a sure success is evident in no matter what she undertakes. 59 Earl Wellington Israel 522 Washington St., Allentown. He knew thy fields and woodland ways. And deemed thy humblest son his brother. -Stedman. Stop, look, listen! A real live “Earl” in a Republican country, and if there’s anything in a name, a descendant of Wellington. He was born not in an “aeroplane,” but in Mahanoy Plane; nevertheless he easily (lies up. Of course, this may be due to the fact that he worked in a powder mill. Here he carried so much that with him “Carrie” became a habit. Like all the sons of Israel, he is devotedlv religious, and as president of the Y. M. C. A. piloted it through a year which placed it second to none of the student organizations in the state. Nothing could distract his attention from these labors except that “ King of all sports”—baseball. But baseball neglecting short distance throws he developed skill in these on the front campus. Believing that little people, should be seen and not heard he was naturally very, very quiet. But don’t ask second hall fellows about this. In the future we shall find Earl making vSnyder ketchup (catch up), but we doubt that he will offer the same for sale, preferring to keep it for himself. Flora Adda Johnson,.........................................R. D. 4, Catawissa. Love in thy youth, fair maid, be wise.—Anon. Here we have a very quiet little girl, Flora Adda Johnson, who believes in that old adage, “Children should be seen and not heard.” In her early years Adda attended Johnson’s school and later went to Bloomsburg Normal, where she spent a year. .She then decided that Keystone was the place for her, and we are proud to have her in the class of 1912. Adda was an active member of the Y. W. C. A., having served on the devotional committee of that organization. She was very studious, so much so, that she always rose in the mornings before the sun came up to begin her work. With all her good qualities Adda has a bad habit. She eats so much that we fear she will suffer from the effects. Cheer up, Adda, you will never be left without your cheese, even if you must “ fight ” for it. 60 831 Main St., Slatington. Edmund Lloyd Jones, It’s the wise head that makes the still tongue.—Lucas. On a cold wintry day, February 24, 1894, a new fledgeling knocked and gained entrance to the world. Gleefully hitting about with arms and legs the newly arrived began a course of physical culture which it has continued ever since. Soon after the “happy day” his joyful parents decided to call him Edmund Lloyd Jones. He spent his boyhood days in Slatington and finally graduated from the Slatington High School. Entering our class in the fall of its senior year he soon made the class feel that it had been highly honored by his entrance. “Chousie” has shown himself to be an all-round man, engaging in anything between heavy athletics and the art of music. He is a strict vegetarian and a “crank” on physical culture and athletics. Tennis and track are his favorites. Besides this he is highly interested in his studies, especially botany. He spends much of his spare time looking for a certain variety of “cresses,” but up to this time has succeeded in finding but one invaluable specimen. Probably “Chousie” will some day decide that this is all he needs to insure him a happy life. Susan Ethel Kanyuck, For well she kept her genial mood And simple faith of maidenhood.—Whittier. “Verily, verily, 1 say unto you,” there lived a certain butcher in Nanticoke. He begot this handsome young woman some time in the year 1893. She “grew and waxed strong.” This day she is an optimist of the highest degree, always carrying a smile of sunshine on her sweet little face. Susan honored the Northampton High School, in that she straightway entered the Senior class upon graduation from the former institution. She has always been a hard worker and makes success come her way. Philo feels proud of her. This young lady had a slight attack of amiability last term, but, sad to tell, successfully had the defect removed. In the future she will unquestionably enter the field of domestic science, rather practically than theoretically. How happy “Joe” will be! 6j Northampton. Mabel Elizabeth Kauffman, . R. D. i, Mohrsville. Her blue eyes sought the west afar. For lovers love the western star.—Scott. The Thanksgiving Day of 1893 proved a day of Thanksgiving, indeed, to the parents of Mabel Elizabeth Kauffman, for on November 26th this charming little lass was ushered into this vast and beautiful world. She spent her earlier years on a farm at Mohrsville, but becoming anxious to know more about the world of books she came to K. S. N. S. to prepare for the profession of teaching. Any one who sees Mabel can tell at a glance that she is a “child of nature.” Her cheeks, which bear the tint of a rose, her bright eyes and her ruby lips prove this tact. Then, too, she is merry as a bird and of a very pleasing disposition with which she wins the favor of her classmates. She is a faithful Y. W. C. A. worker, having served as secretary of this organization. She is also a staunch member of the Keystone Literary Society. Mabel is a great admirer of flowers, especially sweet peas. Wonder why ? She says she shall exercise her pleasing personality upon the little ones of her community next year and after that devote her time to public speaking, but we think, dear reader, that she shall prefer domestic science. So here’s to “Mab.” Walter Peters Kelchner, ..... Fleetwood. None but himself can be his parallel.—Theobald. “Schupp” is a well-known member of our class, especially the female part. This popu larity is somewhat due to his winning car, in which the greater part of the women folk hope to be taken out after Walter is allowed to drive the car without his parents. W alter is also a great athlete, during which career he has gained his famous name, “Schupp,” which clings to him to this day. Walter’s greatest trouble was to find a Saturday suitable to join society. He, however, at last found one and immediately joined the Philo. During his school career Walter has always been one of those who take things as they come and was always willing to take long lessons, except the “eighteen propositions a day” method. 62 Marion Schaeffer Kern, 1108 Main St., Slatington. Never did I behold so superb a woman.—Lafayette. Oh, dear! Here's another from Slatington. But Marion is such a lovely girl vve are glad she’s here. You just ought to hear her laugh. That part of her is contagious. Maid Marion graduated from .Slatington High School, carrying off first honor. Her father being a physician prescribed Kutztown air for her and it’s done no end of good. She has taken a wide course here, and wre fear for some of those brighties When Marion “jumps” on the field. Ruth Eveeyn Kern, .... 279 Cherry St., Slatington. Her presence lends its warmth and health To all who conic before it.—Whittier. Dear, shy little Ruth! How her great dark eyes and soft hair pleased a multitude on December 23, 1893, in Slatington! Ruth is a big girl now. A year ago in the springtime Ruth graduated from Slatington High School. She was always a bright girl and could beat the boys in school, too, but she didn't like to beat some of them. .She entered Kutztown Normal last September, where she is making a record for herself. She says she is going to teach, but we don't know whether teaching or watching “dog-stars” on beautiful nights will prove the more interesting occupation for Ruth. She is an ardent member of Keystone Society. 63 Elam Edwin Kerschner, .... Schuylkill Haven. With hues of genius on his cheek In finest tones the youth could speak. Wordsworth. A glance at him is sufficient to see that he is a rare article, and we can readily see why, when we learn that he first saw light on the rarest date on the calendar. The first place honored by Elam was Wtimer's Station only a coincidence of names. But it was in Schuylkill Haven where instruction was first given to his mind, prior to his coming here in 1910. W hile at Normal, Elam didn’t believe in wasting much time in sleep, and at the crowing of the cock he could enjoy a good game of tennis. Philo Society soon claimed him and elected him to serve as president at anniversary. While not especially fond of getting his picture taken, he never objected to snapshots taken in the cool country air purified by nearby cornstalks. Elam takes as much interest in lessons as in everything else, and thus we find him one of the commencement ten. We expect to see him begin life in 1916, but we fear that Elam will be captured by some kind, altruistic old maid who is just awaiting her chance. Grace Magdalena Kershner, 528 E. Arch St., Pottsville. A thousand cupids in those curls do sit. Those curious nets thy slender fingers knit.—Waiter. Grace—too much for me. She walketh in the way of the crossroads, standeth in the hall after dinner, and sitteth in the seats of the cases. Grace is a shining Philo, a regular V. W. C. A. attendant, and an industrious student. She just loves physics, and will doubtless give her father a “midnight alarm’’ by inventing a perpetual motion machine. Though she was more “alarming” in her middle year than at present, she will soon recruit in her old environment. Reading is another pleasant pastime of hers, and she can converse with you on all subjects, from the pyramids and obelisks down to the latest French styles of hobbles and hairdressing. Will she be an old maid? Now, boys, be reasonable. She will, however, if the stars do not deceive us, for some time assist in safeguarding this republic by educating its citizens. 64 Alfred Leo Kistler,.................................R. D. i, Kempton. Although his looks may seem severe and cold He never would be false to truth or you.—Rates. Look upon this heterogeneous mass. Born the son of a Berks County farmer, he hails from the thickly populated city of Kempton. Alfred Leo kistler completed the course in his native school and then entered the class of 1912. His intellectual growth shows progress, and his physical culture obtained on the campus has made him an expert short-distance tennis-ball artist. His emotional nature first revealed to the world on the promenade adjoining the Reading station, and when better could they be cultivated than in the full rich life of “May”? Besides, in the spring, a young man’s fancies naturally turn into this channel. Alfred is one of the stars in Philo’s crescent, and if the oracles do not deceive us has a promising future and happy home awaiting him. Florence Marie Kistler, ..... Wanatnaker. She looked up glowing with the health The country air had brought her.—Whittier. “The heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament sheweth his handiwork,” and so does this noble specimen of our class. She is a typical Berks Countain of no mean ability. Like most of her classmates, Miss Kistler was born about eighteen years ago. She attended the schools of her municipality, during which time she developed a disinclination for city life and decided to go to the country. For lack of a better place she came to Kutztown. At this place, in the little red school house on the hill, she was trained in the spirit of Pestalozzi and Froebel, and in the methods of Herbart. In the future Miss Kistler will undoubtedly put into practice what she learned at “Kootztown.” She will, however, eventually continue her work in domestic science. 65 Jennie Luei.la Kisti,hr Weatherly. He does it with a letter grace, but I do it more natural.—Anon. Here is a girl from Weatherly, Carbon County, who was born somewhere between sunrise and sunset, some time in either the nineteenth or twentieth century. At present she is called Jennie Kistler, but we doubt whether it will remain Kistler. Her school life was spent at Weatherly, from whence she came to the Normal. Her career at the school has been an interesting one. She is very talkative and the maxim, “You can’t get ahead of a girl,’’ is clearly demonstrated by her. Although the girls have gymnasium only in the winter term, Jennie thinks it a great pleasure and special privilege to have “Jim” the entire year round. But she is an industrious girl, preferring to teach children, and some day she may become the successful teacher of some kindergarten. Her society is Keystone. Wieeiam David Keene, Blandon. He smoked his pipe in the balmy air Every night when the sun went down.—Arnold. “ Hands up! ” ’Tis no use to deny it. Seidel’s Crossing has at last produced a prodigy in the person of “Kliney.” He is the missing link which Darwin long sought and was unable to find. He is a very sober, quiet fellow, yet he can outtalk an auctioneer, and is such a jolly, good fellow that we wish him the best of luck. He is a staunch Democrat, and as he is a farmer by profession, he will no doubt curry (favor of) the Democratic mule. “Kliney” is very vivid in all his conversations and uses highly embellished language. He has a very vivid imagination, well developed by constant exercise. He is a firm advocate of temperance (?). The very best we can wish him is that he will never be far away from a---------, O pshaw, imagine the the rest for yourself. 66 Wiluam Kenneth Knecht, Do not fall in love with me; For I am falser than vows made in wine. Shakespeare. This is one of our bright Schuylkill County lads. He hails from Tower City. He received his primary education in the schools of that town, but after one year’s experience in his home high school, “Bill” decided to come to Kutztown and adorn the class of 1912 with his talents and attainments. During his middle year “ Bill ” showed a strong aversion for chestnut burrs and Black Hand societies. In the beginning of his senior year “Bill” seemed very much interested in pretty maid(en)s. Later on, however, he developed a liking for “pretzels” and “pretzeltown.” He thinks the “warmer” climate of Reading might be good for his health. We assure him that Reading is a fine place for a printer to make his home. The tennis courts there are also fine. “Bill” intends to make journalism his future work. His experience in his father’s printing office and in Ocean City, N. J., coupled with widespread reading and hard work at Normal, insures him abundant success in his chosen life-work. Tower City. James Peter Knole, . Of study took he most care and need ; Not a word spoke he more than was need.-—Chaucer. “James Peter Knoll.” “Here!” This answer surprised us very much. We looked around and saw the prodigy that astonished the world on a lovely day in May, 1892. We find that “Jim has all the qualities of a James and of a Peter. He was a faithful member of his class. He has a well-known propensity for taking walks among the hills, from which his name, Knoll, may have been derived. “Jim” is a wonderful philosopher and will no doubt eventually startle the world. He is a Philo and not interested in politics. James has very little use for girls, but, ladies, beware. Silent waters run deep. James in very many respects resembles the proverbial turtle; he is very slow but very sure. He will, so he says, bestow upon the youths of Fleetwood, the inestimable blessing of his knowledge and experience. Fleetwood. 67 William Edward Krah, Lavelle. I am monarch of all I survey; My right there is none to dispute.—Convpkr. William Edward Krah is the name of this sternlooking guy. Hq was first seen on this planet somewhere around Lavelle, Schuylkill County, Pa. Of his birth, of his ancestors both immediate and remote, and of his own history, very little is known, except that he attended the Huntersville High School and “under ordinary conditions” resides at Lavelle. After teaching he came to K. S. N. S. Here he has taken some interest in athletics, but more in his school work. One person at least thinks that Mr. Krah can play basketball and tennis. In the classroom Edward has always been faithful and progressive. He was a delegate of the Y. M. C. A. to the Bradford conference, and was always a reliable Bible Band leader. His work in the Keystone Literary Society has also been notable. In the future we may expect to see Mr. Krah teach a few years, after which he will attend college. Then lie will either preach or do something else. Irma Bean Kratz, Silverdale. She hugged the offender, and forgave the offense.—Dryden. This smiling young lady you now see hails from fertile Bucks. She first saw light on an August morn at Silverdale. She attended the public schools of her native borough and spent one spring term at the K. S. N. S. By this time Miss Kratz knew enough to pass the teachers’ examination and consequently taught for one consecutive year. By this time she had enough common sense to realize that she ought to complete her course. So once more she directed her steps to the Normal. Irma has since been a faithful member of the Y. W. C. A. and the Philo Society. On Saturdays and Sundays she has however been more particularly interested in one of its male members (Koehler), who was her right-hand man in the dining room or at the athletic games whenever possible. Overlooking this matter and remembering the intelligent family of which she is a part, we can only prophesy that she, too, will be a success in the future. 63 Catasauqua. Harvey Franklin Kratzer, All the world's a stage. But chosen is the actor. Let me introduce him, Harvey Franklin Kratzer. The curtain rises, the orchestra has just finished the overture. See! see! where? I don’t see. Yes, you would not mistake him, although he is not so awful large, yet by his stately walk you could pick him out of a multitude. Listen! By Hercules, if he is not an orchestra in himself ; he can imitate the various tunes and go through the postures just like the real thing. But whence has such a one come? Catasauqua produced him and K. S. N. S. developed him. He is by no means a man of narrow ideas, freely giving information, although some might be the product of an overactive imagination or the discussion of the perilous north-polar expeditions to whomever desires to listen. Harvey may become a “Hammerstein or a professor of drama, especially comedy. Mary Esther Kreitz, Robesonia. O, Mary, at thy window be. It is the wish'd, the trysted hour.—Burns. Say, do you know Mary? Mary who, you might ask. Well, to make it short, Mary Esther Cinderella Rebecca Kreitz. Sure, everybody knows Mary and her enticing smiles. Those smiles first dawned upon the earth on a beautiful spring morning in the latter part of March. What other would you expect? Reading first mourned her absence, then Robesonia, when at length she determined to be a “schoolmarm.” But let me tell you, she will not in her next metamorphic state be found as usual an “old maid.” Although she is an awful quiet and demure girl, she will jam pridem have found some one whom she will make happy with her spontaneous overllow of joy and happiness. As to Mary’s future, the fact that she has had her abode “above chapel” may iniluence her to become a missionary of Aristotle’s principle of happiness. 69 May Joy Kuntz, Treiehler. She hunts up things to laugh about To help the day along. Anon. While the wind was howling round the gables of a little Cherryville hamlet on the 12th day of March, in the year of our Lord 1894, May Joy Kuntz was left by a silvery grey stork to amuse her happy parents. May straightway entertained them by a solo in the minor key. At first it was appreciated by all, but later it ceased to be a novelty, and was the cause of several dust-extracting movements. May grew and waxed strong in spite of adver sity. She graduated from Northampton High School, came to K. S. N. S., and entered the class of 1912. Here she delves deeply into the mysteries of the future more vivid conditions. She is a member of the Philo Society and a firm advocate of woman’s suffrage and domestic science. For the accomplishment of her aims she hopes to enter Yale. John William Kutz,................................R. D. 1, Kutztown. The sun that brief December day Brought with it tidings all so gay That from the yet unfathomed sea He came into this world to be. He is a homely fellow and an earnest worker. On the strings of his heart, Cupid is playing Love's Tunes.” Let us hope that his purpose in life will be fulfilled. “ I am content with knowing if only I could know,” is his motto. We rather think he will become a ‘‘scientific farmer.” 70 Katharine Cecilia Ladden, All that's made by love's decree Has been made resembling thee.—Moore. Katharine Cecelia Ladden was born at Miners-ville, received her early education at Buck Run, and in 1909 came to Keystone. Now “ Kitty” is a brave girl, yet quite playful. She is very fond of the game, Cat after mouse, but not “ Mouse after Kitty.” Twas on a warm evening in April, not a creature was stirring except a wee mouse. ‘‘Kitty’’ was studying. Suddenly we were aroused by shrieks, followed by groans, as of one in distress. We listened and heard, “Take it off, it’s on me.” We went to the rescue and found her on the table. She called for Dick(inson), but he was already in his kennel for the night. Nevertheless, “ Kitty has a sweet disposition except when things go a wee bit wrong. It is then that her feelings give away and there arises, what her chum calls it, her little “ Irish temper.” “ Kitty” is a product of Schuylkill, but during the past year has changed her views and thinks Berks is just “it.” Minersville. Walter Swartz Lapp, .... A slave I am to Clara's eyes!—Prior. How the village of Fricks turned out with songs of joy and thanksgiving! For unto it was born in the month of November pretty little Walter. He applied his heart to wisdom in the days of his youth, and can explain the process of evolution of the world from way before Adam’s time. What a help he would have been to Darwin in helping him revise his conclusions concerning this heterogeneous mass of matter we call the world! . . . Lap]) does not claim relationship with “Connie’’ Mack’s catcher, yet he caught on not only to the regular courses, but to the specialties as well. Latin is his favorite study, and he prepared with careful study and individual investigation a fascicle on “Clara,” one of the forms of clams. Such a combination of oratorical ability, of scientific knowledge and classical learning as Walter has, will doubtless place him at the head of one of our American colleges. Fricks. 71 Alma Pauune Levan, ....... Topton. In April eighteen ninety three. When on the wings of birth came she, The youngest of four daughters fair. Within this world her lot to share. “Kitty,” as she is known to her friends, is a fair specimen of the gentle sex. Like the Trojan Venus, like the violet on the hillside budding into bloom, she sheds forth her gracious (Alma) airs of true womanhood on all mankind. She is fast bending her way across the cliffs of education. After gaining her first victory at Longswamp High School, with such hope as is to the victor, she bent her way to “ Old Keystone.” She is not especially interested in man; no wonder Lloyd has such an unquenchable fancy for her. We bid “God speed” along your way, hoping that you may some day write your name into the book of the “gifted” and hang up your noble purpose in the “hall of fame.” Harold Maurice Levan, Topton. On June the twenty seventh, eighteen ninety-five, An actor entered first upon the stage of life. His father's joy, his mother's pride alike. Who combats for Whatever is is right.'' Noble aspirant of seventeen summers sweet, perhaps may some day all of us lead. After the acquisition of a Longswamp High School diploma, he made his way to “Old Keystone.” Besides being a Philomathean, he is a “silent” Republican. “You can't fool the Dutch.” Of late he has contracted a certain heart disease, which we presume can only be cured by a marriage license in the presence of a minister of the gospel. He however stimulates his pains with his game: ou can play it near the fireside, on the mountain, or on the sands; ’tis the sentimental pastime holding, hands. No doubt, when absorbed in the game, he might one night miss the trolley at Fleetwood; so we suggest that he procure a timetable or make arrangements with the coach to take special walking exercises. May his sun never wane, his skies never be clouded; and when he plays his closing scene in life, drop the curtain” with a scene just as illustrious as the one in life portrayed. 72 Kutztown. Mabei, Ruth Levan, But Grecian chisel ne’er did trace A Nymph, a Nyiad, or a Grace, A finer form or lovelier face.—Scott. Mabel was born in Kutztown, May 30, 1892. She has had the extreme pleasure of attending K. S. N. S. from the model department to the Senior class. As for politics she is in favor of the best and most handsome looking man of either party. Now Mabel makes a splendid “operator.” And we don’t know which is more becoming to her: to be a “telephone girl” or a schoolmarm. She is very studious. We never go down town without seeing Mabel studying (?) away at the window. Does she study books or people? We all imagine her heart beats a little quicker when some one passes. Mabel has one fault: she doesn’t like to dance. But we feel sure that Mabel will not take too much time for dancing and will faithfully perform her work in the schoolroom, where she will probably stay forever (?). David Charles Lins, ..... East Maueh Chunk. All this he understood by rote. And as occasion served would quote.—Butler. “Davie,” did you say? Lost to “grace” but redeemed by nature. Of her (?) he is an ardent lover, from the material, through the human, up to the divine nature. This passion he accredits to his first impression received in the “ Switzerland of America” on a beautiful April morning one score of years ago. He living so close to nature is positive that the sun rises in the west. Even physics cannot make him think otherwise. Like all animals living near nature, he is naturally shy and modest, extremely quiet and timid in company, being fast only when tied. Though his love of human nature may lead him into the schoolroom, it will only hold him there until he has conquered and solved the “most perplexing problem of mankind,” “What is woman’s nature?” For then he will sure enough take her for his own, since he believes that “ to the victor belongs the spoils.” Another score of years hence will find him a prosperous scientific farmer proud of all he surveys. 73 Austin Everett Lutz, Fritztown. Man wants but little here below Nor wants that little long. A cheerful and genial disposition, however, is one of the many things coveted by the entire race. Austin Lutz seems to have been favored by nature with a merry disposition. In sunshine or rain, in cold or heat, you can hear “Lutz’s” hearty laugh from the minute he opens his eyes in the morning till his bed groans, under the heavy weight, at night. It was on the 6th of August, 1894, that an advertisement appeared for an extra strong nurse (physically). And now Austin measures almost six feet. After graduating from the Spring Township High School, Austin took up the Normal course. Entering as a Junior-Middler he successfully passed for Senior. He is strongly identified with the Philo Literary Society and has proven his musical abilities as a member of the School Orchestra, playing solo violin. His present home is Fritztown, and “Lutz” claims there isn’t another town in the world like Fritztown. Although he will teach for some time, his ultimate aim is forestry. K. Margaret Lynch, . 312 W. Mahanoy Ave., Mahanoy City. Oh. gentle sleep. Nature’s soft nurse, how have I frighted thee?—Shakespeare. K. Margaret Lynch first saw daylight steal over the fair hills of Schuylkill County at Mt. Carmel. She was a pretty little babe with dark black hair; but one day her parents forgot her and she wandered about in the sun. As a result, her hair were slightly bleached and received a delicate auburn tinge. Having graduated from her home schools she pulled stakes and next pitched her tent at Keystone. Here she never gets into trouble, because when she arrives the storm has long ago vanished. There really is some advantage in taking one’s time. “Marg” is a champion giggler and runs exactly twenty-four hours with one winding. Her favorite posy is the rose, for which she would walk seven miles just so that she might excite a “sneezing spell.” As Keystone Society developed her vocal abilities, she will enlist as a suffragette and demonstrate to the world the power of a woman's “won’t.” 74 Daniel Howard Madeira, September eighteen ninety two, When first the breath of life he drew. An ardent worker always he. We bid success in life to thee. This is not Daniel in the lion’s den, but Daniel, the operator. “The sweetest tune in the world to me, Is the musical click of the telegraph key.” After obtaining his Birdsboro High School diploma, Daniel took the next train for )ld Keystone.” On the plains of his heart the invading forces of Cupid’s army have never yet encamped. He on the train “ Bashful, speed limit one mile per year, is fast approaching the station “Bachelor.” Daniel, get the hook! He is not only an ardent Reformed and educational worker, but you ought to see him hug first bag for the Birdsboro nine. The bat did split The ball has nit When safely home My Daniel slid. May thy after years be illumined by “success,” and last of all a loving “wife.” Monocacv. Verna Marguerita Marcks, My tongue within iny lips, 1 rein. For who talks much must talk in vain.—Anon. And here's another girl that’s all right. They say she gets on the train at Emaus. Little Verna used to go to the school of her native city where she learned her phonograms. Inspired by God she thought that she might be able to do more for humanity if she would take a Normal course. Consequently, she expedited her movements slightly and matriculated several years ago. While in residence at Normal she always made good “marks.” And she was just as good in society as in class. Miss Verna can run, jump and play tennis with some skill. Like the rest she will undoubtedly teach school for the immense period of several years. What she will do then we can imagine. Emaus. 75 Elsie Ellen Marsh R. I), i, Siegfried. Her voice was ever soft. Gentle, and low—an excellent thing in woman. —Shakespeare. Now here’s a girl that does not say a whole lot, but she’s right there when it comes down to business. She was first seen in Allentown on the first day of January. The year has been for gotten. She attended the public schools of Bethlehem Township. She now desired to know what the ancients knew and to be able to speak their language with eloquence, therefore she came straightway to K. S. N. S. She always went about her work silently and made things come her way. Miss Marsh was an active member of Keystone and of the Y. W. C. A. She distinguished herself as a member of the girls’ basketball team during her senior year. In the future she will undoubtedly teach, and sooner or later will probably go where the heroes of the “Titanic” went. William Franklin Masters, ... R. D. 2, Breinigsville. Nowhere so besy a man as ther was And yet he seined besier than he was.—Chaucer. William Franklin Masters is the name of this handsome gentleman who reminds you slightly of leabod Crane, the fugitive of the headless horseman. He began his earthly career “in an upper room behind the house,” in the beautiful city of Allentown. He attended some outlandish school in his native city about a year, when he became tired of this business. Then his parents moved to Lyon Valley, and of course little “Willie” went along. He was emancipated from the grammar school of this place in 1904. He now thought he knew enough to teach school. But after a little experience he decided to come to the K. S. N. S., where he might learn more of his profession and extend his mental horizon. At Normal Mr. Masters was a day student. In the classroom he was progressive and earnest. He was also a member of Philo. In the future Air. Masters expects to keep single, keep cool and keep school. 76 Lillian Grebe Matheys,..............................................Loyertown Is she not more than painting can express Or youthful poets fancy when they love.—Rowe. “ Blondy ” Matheys was born on a cold November day, about 18 years ago, at Zieglersville, Montgomery County. She attended the public schools of that place and then graduated from the Boyertown High School. Her time here was well spent and she took great interest in mathematics, but only when somebody gave her the problems (worked). She thinks the meals at the Normal ever surpass those of her own home, because the “Stuart” is a person who is well fitted and will always wait and provide for her. The people who come from Pemerton are all right. Lillian and you would enjoy living there. Lillian takes great interest in athletics, as all her “best friends” either play ball fir used to play. She is a member of the Keystone Literary Society. George Edward McCloskey, I'm proud of all the Irish blood that s in me, Divil a man can say a word agin me.—Burns (?). Ladies and gentlemen: George Edward Mc- Closkey, the smallest and most quiet member of our class. Born somewhere in America, within the last century. All we know of his early life is that he got an education in Catasauqua and came here in 1909. While at Keystone “Mack”—we don’t know what relation he is to “Connie —had a great career. In his middle year “Mack” thought he would like to lie a bootblack, but the job proved too strenuous and it took him a week to recuperate. He is a good Latin student and always declined well until one day he was declining avis and got stuck on the syncopated form ava. He is also a good tennis teacher and doesn t mind rising early to teach it. On the diamond he held down first and in basketball he usually held down the floor, once holding it down so long that some one moaned “he’s killed.” However, “Mack” still remains for the future and we may hear of him as a lawyer occasionally pleading his own case in Reading. 77 William James McDonald, Lost Creek. His room was quiet and neat and plain But a spirit of comfort there held reign.—Arnold. William James McDonald made his first appearance in the little mining village of Lost Creek on February 12, 1887. He received his initial education in the public schools of his native town. After acquiring all that was possible from that source, “Mac” secured a position at the mines, where he worked for several years. Here he finally met with a serious accident that was largely instrumental in shaping his future career. He worked for some time as a clerk, but “ Mac” is ambitious, and he soon departed for the K. S. N. S., there to prepare for his future work. As an orator “Mac” has shown himself to be “right there with the goods.” Always an active member of Keystone Literary Society, he was naturally selected as one of its representatives at the anniversary. In politics he stands for a progressive democracy, justice and equality. As his future work is to be law, we can look forward to the-time when the month of February shall have another name added to its list of poets, statesmen and authors. Catharine Elizabeth McDonell, . 125A S. 5th St., Reading. Of all her dears she never slander’d one. But cares not if a thousand arc undone.—Pope. Elizabeth, cheerful-tempered, good-11 a t u r e d Elizabeth, cares few and tears as scarce to her eyes as diamonds, came here two years ago. Although rather “slim” and “delicate,” she is a fine athlete. Much of her training along this line she received at Lebanon High School. She has a splendid contralto voice, which, however, she has not as yet used before the public; but after 10 o’clock it has been the cause of many sleepless hours, often awakening students. She cherishes a strong aversion toward domestic science (likewise to men). As to Elizabeth’s future, well! only the Fates know. All wish you good luck. 78 Virginia May McDonough, Pine Grove. My eyes make pictures when they are shut.—Coleridge. Pine Grove had an eventful date imprinted on its brow in the birth of Virginia May McDonough on the 24th of July, 1894. Her earlier days of education began at Pine Grove and the later art at this Normal. Virginia is a Methodist and a Philo. Her ambition seems to enthuse her to become a printer or a farmer (Power). She nevertheless intends to teach. She always thinks of the hunger of her opposite, and can be seen preparing something for him and waiting outside. “ Mr.—, won’t you please take this up to my opp. May she receive her just reward. We wish her success. Ella Rosaria Me ale y, . And, as the bright sun glorifies the sky So is her face illumin'd by her eye.—Shakespeare. Here’s a sunbeam personified. Don t you feel the warmth of her looks? Ella’s chief aim is to spread light and joy throughout the world, ever radiating it from those “bright eyes.” For this end Branchdale brought her forth, and Keystone Normal developed her. Ella is an earnest student and a progressive Keystonian. Though naturally very shy and timid in company, we must say that socially and conversationally, as well as cheerfully and intellectually, she has developed wonderfully. Never yet have the fates been adverse to a smiling face, so this little lass may expect abundant success. Our hopes and prayers and ji her hopes of future years go with her. 79 Branchdale. Mary Veronica Mealey, Branchdale. Sets of phrases, cut and dry. Evermore thy tongue supply.—Swift. “A thing of beauty is a joy forever.” So is this brown-eyed, dark-haired brunette, who goes under the stamp of Mary Veronica Mealey. She was born at Branchdale. To just what species she belongs is not accurately known, since Doctor Gray never had the privilege to see her, and hence no description is in his analytical key. Mary comes from the land of minehole fame, where it is permitted but not wise to go star gazing. A phenomena not found in the “Guide to Nature” is more likely to result after the ride through the air, followed by an abrupt stop. She completed the first part of education in her native town, and then came to Normal. Here she unfolded her portals everlasting and let the king of knowledge enter. Having acquired a goodly store she joined the Keystone Society to get rid of the surplus. She will teach for a few years; from thence her horoscope is very hard to interpret. Thomas Franklin Mease, .... West Leesport. He wish he war a biggie man. He hope to be some day. Then he will fill the Latin chair And makie great big pay. Don't say that “Tommie” is bashful. All Leesport, both Hast and West, has been proud of him ever since that eventful morning of March, 1894, when the foreman of the limestone quarry was notified of another voter in his house. Of course, this little boy was not to be denied the privileges and enjoyments of school life, so off he trotted to the public school of West Leesport. He, together with several other members of the K. S. N. S. class of 1912, started out into the world after their commencement in 1910, only to strike the Keystone Normal. Thomas Franklin displayed both his teaching capabilities and his stage-fright, the morning he undertook his first great task—the teaching of the Latin class. His one pastime is to sit for several hours, holding down a chair, and reading his favorite author, Mark Twain (Clemens). For developing his literary talents and also his argumentative faculties, he joined the Keystone Society. 80 Anna Marie MicklEY, .... For never anything can he amiss. When simpleness and duty tender it.—Anon. When the Trojan war was fought is known, but when this innocent little bud first came is unknown. Ruchsville was her first home, and at Schadt’s her first instruction was given. But this ambitious young lady could not satisfy her great thirst for knowledge there and Keystone was next honored. When you look at her you would not think she was of a rebellious nature, but nevertheless in 1910 this young lady joined a band of strikers and spent a short time in the infirmary. This seemed to cure her, and she never struck again, but was a faithful and hard-working student. One of Anna’s greatest faults is to make noise, and she is never quiet for five successive minutes. Next year we expect to see some schoolroom graced by her presence, and perhaps she may continue her education by going to college, but we think it is more likely to be a college for two. R. D. i, Coplay. Hazel MiddlEkaufe, .145 Snider Ave., Waynesboro. Her speech is graced with sweeter sound Than in another’s song is found.—Waller. Here is a maid who puts her whole soul into everything she does. What an energetic girl she is! Hazel’s debut was made in Fostoria, Ohio, in 1893. After completing the course at Waynesboro High School, she came right over to Kutz-town, and you just ought to see how she gets away with the work. She is a member of “ Philo,” and intends to teach until some captivating Paris carries her off to his ‘‘realms supreme.” 81 Florence Judith Mille John Ui.rich Miller, r, ...... Emaus. And thine was many an art to win and bless The cold and stern to joy and fondness warming. Norton Here certainly is a heart for any fate, and its owner comes from Emaus, Lehigh County. No matter how discouraged others may get, Florence never complains, and only once did she get excited and that was when she had used simplified spelling. Ask her about it. Her motto seems to be: “Every time I pluck a thorn, I plant a rose.” Her thoughts often wander to where the Mississippi’s turning, and she likes to attend to her father’s business, especially that which concerns the bank. Florence was one of the hard workers of the class, and whatever she may undertake she will have the best wishes of all. Kutztown. Of sleep forsaken, to relieve his care, He sought the conversation of the fair.—Dry den. This quiet town of Kutztown was rudely awakened one day when John Ulrich Miller appeared upon the scene. Here he was born and here he was raised. He first went to public school, but later realizing the advantages of the Model came here. After a course in this department he entered Normal. At Normal “Jack” has been a very hard (?) worker, nothing being too arduous for him. He was a great French student and could go the 2 140 pace. He was a favorite with all the girls, but in senior year it was “Esther for me!” “Jack” was one of our second-team men in basketball and played well, except when the attraction of the balcony was too great. hen it comes to oratory, “Jack” is there “with the goods,” and he can deliver them before you can think of taking them. Next year this genius expects to return and take a post-graduate course. But in the future we expect to see him as an agent, and likely a hat agent, because he delights in showing the latest sytles of derbies, §2 Karl Humbert Miller, .... For the writer not for money, nor for praise. Nor to be call’d a wit; nor to wear bays.—Denham. And this is his brother! Born in this town a year or so before him (the exaet date cannot be found), he was raised here. He attended the Model department of this school and later entered Normal. Possessed of great ability as a writer, this genius produced the class day play. Music has her charms for this young man, and if nothing else can keep him cjuiet this can. At almost any time of the day, when passing his home, you might hear him fiddling on his violin, and he believes in playing nothing but the latest. On the basketball floor he either breaks through the lines or breaks those that try to go through him. We have no doubt that next year will find him a teacher, dreaming of the angels to be carved and planning what way to do it. But a few years later we may pick up a novel and find Karl’s name not on the flyleaf, but in the author’s place. Good luck to you! Kutztown. Marian Adele Miller, .... And many a mirthful jest and mock reply Lurked in the laughter of thy dark brown eye.—Norton. Marian’s favorite expression is, “The Smith a mighty man is he.’’ She made her debut some time after the Civil War; just when, she refuses to tell. We only know that the stork dropped her at Doctor Miller’s residence at East Texas. She attended the public schools at the same place, but she soon outgrew the old school and schoolmaster. In order to satisfy her desire for an education, she entered Keystone State Normal School in the fall of 1909. Her exact words as to politics are thus, “ I do not think that my father cares to have me talk much about politics, but being that he is interested in the Democratic party, 1 think I will side with him after woman’s suffrage is introduced into Pennsylvania.” Marian’s favorite pastime at home is to go out driving. Now, Marian, next time you go out driving, be sure you get the proper permission, so that papa will not come along at the wrong time. She is undetermined about her future work, but we all think she prefers domestic science. East Texas. � 3 Agnes Catharine Morrison, ...... Auburn. Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.—Pope. Auburn! .Sweet Auburn! The loveliest village of the plain claims Agnes as one of its fair daughters and inspired her with lofty thoughts in her youthful years, so that when Agnes graduated from Auburn High she immediately came to Keystone Normal. Agnes was a good, all-round student, but specialized in Latin and found unlooked for meaning in its words, the greatest discovery being “ I have a right to hate men, and trust not any.” Bashful, like all Schuylkill County girls, she never looks at the opposite side of the house, but cheer up, Agnes, there’s a lid to every crock, and you can be no exception. For the next few years, however, Agnes intends to grace the schoolroom and instill some of her lofty thoughts into younger minds. Anna Nichoi.s Morrison, ...... Auburn. Her shining hair uncombed was lovely spread; A crown of massless oak adorn'd her head.—Dryden. Here we have a very quiet young lady, born some time during the twentieth century. Anna attended the public schools of Auburn, and after graduating from the high school of that place, decided to come to K. S. N. S. Her first night at the Normal was one to be forever remembered. Anna soon discovered that things were not what they seemed. During her middle year she took a trip to Muhlenberg, where she witnessed the F. and M. games. Lunch was served in the dining room of the college where nothing but cut glass and “ Roger(s) ” silverware was used. Now Anna was always very studious and did her duty both in the classroom and elsewhere. She was an active member of the Y. W. C. A., in which association she served faithfully on the joint devotional committee. 84 Bernharts. Herman Henry Moyer, 11 is presence is like sunshine sweet to gladden home and earth.—Moultrie. “Hold ’em down, Moyer!” What a wonderful baby Herman must have been! He is one of the seven wonders of Normal and can use his 'ingenuity” to the utmost extent in bluffing in classes and quizzes. Herman hails from the one-horse station of Bernharts. He is a great basketball player and has broken all records in that mystic art, and prides himself on his many accomplishments. He will be an electrical engineer, and we hope that he will not need to “hold ’em down” in that line, but will use his ingenuity to hold his job. Helen Matilda Newhard, 341 E. ioth St., Northampton. She scarce awake her eyes could keep Unable to support the fumes of sleep.—Drydbn. How glorious a task it is, not the telling whence she cometh, for that is Northampton, but what she doeth and whither she goetli. Fearing lest some few things were not included in the course of her native school, she came to Kutztown to fill in the missing links. How the halls have resounded ever since in response to her melodious voice! Quiet meditation is becoming an ancient thing, for not even the mice get the chance to steal a nap, let alone the rats. But please do not smile at her, for if you do she is likely to be seized by an overwhelming giggle which explodes at intervals, regularly tuned like the geysers of the Yellowstone. She is however a zealous student, and is rapidly broadening her intellectual horizon. As to physical culture she thinks nothing ecpial to be a Smith’s first helper. It isn’t the village Smithy though. The oracles have been very silent as to her future, perhaps because they didn’t have a chance to wedge in a word. She will however go forth training youths in the virtues of Milton and Mann and the methods of Herbart. 85 Alburtis. Helen Florence Elizabeth Nuss, She quits the narrow path of sense For a dear ramble through impertinence.—Swift. Ninety-four score and eleven years after the birth of Christ, on the two hundred and fifty-third day of that year, a small stork brought our Helen to the little town of Alburtis. As a result of the size of the bird, Helen has not grown tall up to this day. She is however nursing the hope that a medicine will be discovered that will send her growing to the sky. When she has grown tall she may, as she fondly hopes, be the actress of the day. Helen’s birth was a great joy to her parents. Her face and form had the splendor of Trojan Helen. She was therefore also called Helen. She expects to teach school and study vocal music for at least a few years. When her teaching career is over she wants to prepare herself to wait until “he” comes and that she may not lose faith and be surprised when he really comes as she had one experience. C rus Adam Peters, Steinsville. Mark! now I hear them—- Ding. dong. bell.—Shakespeare. Israel Putnam was called fiom the plow to serve his country, but Mr. Peters, a now retired farmer, was called from the plow on a far more important message. Cyrus had arrived, and was tilling the house with blood curdling yells. It all happened in Steinsville, Berks County. After finishing the course of the Lynn Township schools, he entered as a student at K. S. N. S. in the autumn of 1909. Cyrus has always been a diligent worker and success always awaits such mortals. We feel confident that February 23, 1891, shall go down in the annals of history as an important date. Cyrus is an active member of the Philomathean .Society and claims that “Teddy” stands on his favorite political platform. He is a member of the Reformed Church and is identified with .Sunday school work. Although he intends to teach a few years, his extensive knowledge of scientific farm work will no doubt prove him in good stead. His present home is in Steinsville. 86 Ora Eve Rai p, Phoenixville. Freckles undistinguish’d pass. For I'm ashamed to use a glass.—Swift. live was the first woman, born January 20, 1893. The wildest hopes of fond parents were realized when Ora began to confirm the idea that she was not named Ora in vain. On the 21st of January the whole town of Phoenixville, Chester County, was already aware that a new housekeeper had arrived. After attending Walter’s public school and Colgan private institution she entered Normal, and during the years of her attendance became very popular with both sexes. Ora’s cheery voice is a very great factor in commanding attention. When )ra is around there is sure to be no clouds or rain, but sunshine. Such a disposition is enviable. Her father is one of the progressive millers of Chester County and this accounts for Ora s modern traits. She is a member of the Philo Society and an upholder of the Calviuistic theory. She proposes to be entirely Independent, even in politics. Margaret Elizabeth Reedy, Behold, a child by Nature’s kindly law, Pleased with a rattle, tickled with a straw.—Pope. One bright day in the month of roses, 1892, a very quiet, unassuming little girl appeared at the Reedy homestead in Tremont. This dreamy-eyed blonde was “Peggy.” She attended the public schools in Tremont until 1909, when she came to Kutztown to continue her education. As her ideals are high she intends to complete her school work in a higher institution, after which she hopes to teach a special line of work, which we think will be kindergarten. “ I eggy,” like l lc affectionate girl she is, gained many friends while at this institution. “ Like most of us” she made one particular friend, and to see these two together one might say “they are inseparable now and forever.” Margaret is a true Philo. She is so fond of society that one usually finds her on deck long before the president calls the happy band together. This we will leave to her for explanation. Go ahead, Margaret. Good luck to you. Tremont. 87 Charles Geissler Reichert, R. D. 2, Beehtelsville. Yet had his aspect nothing of severe, But such a face as promised him sincere.—Dryden. Just six days after the celebrating of the Independence day of 1889 at Landis’ Store, Pike Township was very fortunate in becoming the birthplace of a boy who was destined to become one of the most industrious members of this class. Little Charles gathered physical and mental strength at such a rate that lie was able to start his school days at the age of four. When the schools of Pike and District Township could no longer furnish the necessary mental food he came to K. S. N. S. Charles always took great interest in the study of physics. The law that likes repel and unlikes attract seemed at first very peculiar to him; but by frequent experiments in this line lie discovered that a practical application of this law could be demonstrated. To our surprise he picked his “unlike sign” and can accordingly boast of being one of the “immortal four” of our class. After graduation he will again follow the calling to which he already devoted two years. Our fond hopes and best wishes anticipate his success. Oley. O, that a man might know The end of this day’s business ere it comes.—Shakespeare. Who’s this? This is Guy Baer Reiff. He hails from Oley. From the very beginning Guy was a bundle of energy and was “grown-up” long before his time. His early “schooling” was received in his home town. After a year profitably spent in high school, Guy sought to more fully develop his capabilities by entering Normal. His many good qualities made him very popular from the start. During his middle year he was a prominent figure in basketball and quite proficient in baseball. But “Scrubby” found that single life was too full of temptations and that he needed some one to keep him straight. So in the spring of 1911 he became one of the “immortal four” to the extreme sorrow of our Normal girls. .Since then “Reiffy” has spent most of his spare time practicing on his cornet. To his ability on that instrument the Normal orchestra owes a large measure of its success. 88 Guy Baer Reiff, . R. D. i, Easton. Wii.uam Franklin Remaly, A merry heart goes all the day. Your sad tires in a mile—a.—Shakespeare. As the breezes of the Delaware River swept over the land and drove the people to seek shelter, on a cold November day in 1890, this piece of humanity, which they later called William Franklin Remaly, put in its appearance somewhere in the vicinity of Easton. His father realizing the fact that ordinary farming would not be in fashion when “Bill” grew up, decided to start his education early, and thus it was that he entered the Union School No. 4; but this school was only a step to the goal in view, so to pave the way still further toward the scientific course, he was a little later found at East Stroudsburg State Normal. It was while here that he had the misfortune of being disabled and forced to discontinue his studies; but we now sec that this intermission was for his good, for during this time he pondered and found that Keystone far excelled Stroudsburg in environment, and as a result decided to enter this class in the middle year. While here Remaly was always a hard worker and could nearly always be found in his room, except at the time when he was in the hall engaged in social intercourse. Don’t be alarmed though, for “Bill” had not yet found any|one else’s sister that he liked better than his own. He was an active member of Philo, and we can rest assured that whatever he takes up asfjhis life-work he will make a success. Mary Edna Rickenuach, R. D. i, Leesport. Yhc mildest manners and the gentlest heart.—Pope. The Middle class of 1910 was blessed when Mary Edna stepped into its midst, a very quiet but studious girl. Mary throughout the two years she spent at this institution was a very faithful member of the class and also of the Y. W. C. A., in which she always took an active part. She joined the Keystone Literary Society, and was one of the speakers at the last anniversary. No doubt, after a few years of teaching, we will hear of her being at some institution furthering her education, but she thinks her duty is to be a missionary. 89 Allen Cyrus Riegel, Orwigsburg. In ourselves our fortune lies; Life is what we make it.—Westlake. Persia may have had her Cyrus, but vve have ours in the person of Allen Cyrus Riegel, who first made his appearance in this world in Schuylkill County. In Schuylkill, Allen was raised and educated, but this education was not sufficient to quench his insatiable thirst for knowledge, and Keystone next had the privilege of quenching it. Here Allen was a faithful student, and when at work, no thoughts of any kind can distract his attention from his books; not even the talk of his most beloved subject, politics; for Allen is an ardent Socialist and can talk a suffragette into believing she is a Socialist. But think not that Allen spends all his spare time in talking Socialism. He is a good Bible student and delights in studying the Old Testament that he may obey the commandments of “Moses” here and there and especially in his home town. Allen intends to hold the lamp of knowledge before the young, yet we fear that Allen may be smote with quite a different flame; but if it leads him to “Moses” it will not have burned in vain. Marion Marguerite Roberts, Mahanoy City. For if she will, she will—you may depend on't. —Sh a k espea k e . This young lady was born at Ashland in August, 1892. She went to school at Mahanoy City and then was sent to Normal. Marion always was a quiet child, and perhaps it is this that has won so many friends for her. Marion is a great lover of nature, and she takes short walks out toward the country quite frequently. Her friends grew inquisitive, but after her rendition of “Misunderstood” in Philo Society, she led them to think that she goes for those walks only for the exercise derived thereby. It is Marion’s desire to teach, and we all feel confident that she will make a successful teacher. 90 Quincy Alvin W. Rohrbach, ..... Mertztown. He’s fond of giving; German talks And taking girlie out for walks. On June 6, 1892, this specimen of humanity was added to those of earlier birth in the wilds of Longswamp Township. He graduated at the Longswamp High School in 1908. This was his “sweet sixteen,’’ and his heart began to trouble not only himself, but one of his neighbor’s daughters. After his graduation he came to the Keystone Normal School, but remained here only a year. His heart was continually growing worse. The next year he taught school and again came back as a member of the 1912 class. Quincy is a great man when it comes to melons and roses and can generally be found with this combination near him if no “prof” is in sight— “3-5 of a melon and a rose.” Quincy was an eloquent Keystonian and with his powers developed will make success come his way. Mabel Elizabeth Roth, .... A bachelor I do despise They find no favor in my eyes Anon. It was spring time in 1892 when Mabel was ushered into the Roth home. She was a girl fond of study, and after completing her course in the Chestnut Hill schools she was not satisfied, but came to K. S. N. S. to prepare to enter the great corps of teachers. Mabel is a conscientious worker and thus found all her pleasure in her books. People didn’t think she ever got into any mischief, but those people did not room in the right wing of the building, for once in a while Mabel made her appearance in the hall at 9.45 and was caught at making peculiar “noises.” Mabel was so downhearted for a few weeks in April that we all wondered why, but heard later that the only one she thought she could love deserted her and now she is heard singing, “Gee I wish I had my old beau back again.” It's too bad, but we all wish her success. Coopersburg. 91 Harry Jacob Rothermel, Leesport. O, let not woman’s weapons, water drops. Stain my man’s cheeks.—-Shakespeare. Harry Jacob Rothermel, the son of a prominent Berks County farmer, was born in obscurity during the latter half of the nineteenth century at Perryville, Berks County. The date of his birth is not exactly known, as the Robinson Crusoe method of keeping time was then employed. As he was growing up, the craving for knowledge gradually commenced to assert itself. This craving was partly satisfied at the Ontelaw-nee schools and somewhat appeased at the West Leesport High School, where he graduated in 1910. During the summer of that year much curiosity was aroused concerning the progress of events, for the satisfaction of which he entered the 1912 class of K. S. N. S. He is a member of the Keystone Literary Society, where he brings into play his lofty thoughts and splendid vocabulary, gained from his Latin Scientific course. Harry intends to follow the profession of teaching for a time and then enter college for the purpose of enriching his Alma Mater. Helen Young Ruth, ....... Kutztown. I’m coming. I’m coming, My head is bending low! I hear your gentle heart strings calling— Young Black Joe. Helen Young was a little blue-eyed baby, one week old, on September 5, 1892, at Norristown. But her fortune was not to be made there. After her high school days, she attempted clerking. Many customers were obtained, due to her “winsome personality.” But Helen wanted to be educated as a farmer’s wife, so she induced her parents to move to a farm near Mertztown. Finding that hay-raking did not agree with her complexion, she decided to devote her spare moments in learning to train children. For this express purpose she entered the Keystone Normal, accompanied by her sister, Katie-rine, and later, by her brother, John-athan. Miss Ruth resides, at present, in a prominent place in the city of Kutztown, easily found by all members of the opposite sex. One of her enjoyments is a “moonlight walk.” 92 Mohnton. Homer Worley Ruth, . . .. And when a lady’s in the case, You know all other things give place.—Popb. Homer Worley Ruth, who “may” have been the originator of Homer’s Iliad, was born at Mohnton, Berks County, March 15, 1892. He attended Mohnton schools. His father is a cigar manufacturer. In 1910 he entered the Middle class of this school, where his power for clear thinking was admired by all. However, an arrest of development was noted when the school adopted a course for third-year students. Homer is a loyal member of Philo Society. He is a violinist of some note and besides being a member of the orchestra, he is one of our tenor singers. Homer is desirous of becoming a medical doctor and a prosperous success is predicted. John Abraham Ruth, ....... Kutztown. He hath a daily beauty in his life.—Shakespeare. Here’s a man long tossed about both in Lehigh and Berks and suffering much besides even in Montgomery. He was born in Norristown, but in about two years he became so disgusted with the place that he betook himself to Reading. Of course, he was accompanied by the rest of the family. Five years later the family took the trolley for Allentown. John was now old enough to think about mental development, and to school he straightway went. After eight years of mental culture he decided that he had too much head and not enough heart. To remedy this defect he migrated to a farm in Longswamp, where he might live close to nature. In this vernal environment he communed with the birds and the flowers, the sun and the stars. His specialty, however, is his taste for “American beauties.” Coming to Keystone there were still a few things he learned; namely, to speak the truth, defend the right and honor woman. This knight of knowledge will in the future be found in the conflicts of both Church and State. 93 Katharine Young Ruth, Kutztown. To hear his soothing tales she feigns delays; What woman can resist the force of praise? Gay. Yes! It was the twenty-sixth anniversary of the surrender of Lee at Appomattox Court House, when Stonersville, Berks County, Pa., was increased in population by one human soul, a bright-eyed little girl. When she was old enough to enter school life she went to Allentown. Applying herself very diligently, she graduated from Allentown High School at the age of seventeen. Her diligence and aim in life finally induced her to enter Normal. Her popularity and ability here at school was confirmed when she was elected a speaker for Keystone anniversary, 1912. Katie is a worthy member of the Reformed Church and if woman’s suffrage ever comes to pass she will be the first one to vote the Democratic ticket. Her present home is Kutztown. She intends to grace some schoolroom with her ideas, and woe betide the tardy student. We don’t know how long she’ll be a sehoolmarm, but we can guess. Adele Miriam Sassaman, ... Bala. Is there a tongue like Delia’s o’er her cup; That runs for ages without winding up?—Young. August 13, 1892. Hark! What was that5 The startled inhabitants of Bala couldn't explain that awful cry, but if any of the members of the class of 1912 had been around, they could very easily have distinguished the melodious voice of Adele Miriam Sassaman. Only a short time afterward Della cried again, this time for Zeno. Now don't think Della had serious thoughts at this time—she wanted chewing gum. Since then Zeno has been one of her best friends. However, Della grew and went to school and developed into a bashful, sweet-tempered girl, so she says, and as such we find her at Keystone in 1910. Here Della attended strictly to lessons, believing that in all things you must be earnest. She can talk hours to you on the subject of “ Ernest.” Della intends to train young minds in the right paths, but we fear her time will be short, as it is hard to say what a woman will do next. 94 Emaus. Mabel Florence Schaeffer, Grace was in all her steps, heaven in her eye. In every gesture, dignity and love.—Milton. “The Countess” comes from a race of girls and thus disappointed her father very much, almost seventeen years ago. She has always expressed a preference for Fleetwood boys, nevertheless she lias dangled many a Eeesport fellow from her pretty apron strings. She graduated from West Eeesport High in iyio, and then determined to change the scene of her activities to Normal. Those wonderful eyes of hers, together with that wonderfully fascinating smile and charming laugh, have wrought havoc throughout the whole alphabet, from Byron and Earl to Robert and William. Mabel is a skillful and enthusiastic pianist and intends to finish her musical education on the European continent. Our advice is that she wait until she goes on her honeymoon as countess and thus save one trip. Ruth Matilda Schafer, Lehighton. I’ll warrant she’ll prove an excuse for the glass.—Sheridan. Another of that bunch! This time, Ruth Matilda Schafer, who originally hailed from Catasauqua. Where this young lady received her first instruction is not known, but it must have been good. Ruth’s favorite expression is “A thing of beauty is a joy forever.” This she thinks and “sure will” think until by actual experience she finds that things are not what they seem. At Normal, Ruth seemed to be a very quiet girl, but you can’t always sometimes tell. Although Lehighton is her present home, Allentown is one of her favorite towns. We don't know what the attraction is unless it might be Muhlenberg. And yet, what kind of specimens could they keep at Muhlenberg that would delight Ruth? Ruth is a very ambitious girl and her ambition may lead her to college “anahow.” At any rate wherever she goes, we feel assured of her success and wish her good luck on her way. 95 Perry Ezra Schantz, ...... Zionsville. Rare compound of oddity, frolic and fun.—Goldsmith. Far outranking the noise of crackers and guns on New Year s Day, 1S92, was the noisy advent of Perry Ezra Schantz. He hails from Zionsville, but that does not necessarily say that he has had a taste of the New Jerusalem. However, the noise and ceremonies had no effect on Perry’s “upper story’’ and he graduated as valedictorian from Upper Milford Township High School. Then he attended Perkiomen Seminary for a year, but as Perkiomen did not recognize the stupendous ability and possibilities lying dormant in the lad he passed examinations and entered our class in 1910. Not only does Perry possess marvelous intellectual ability, but he possesses musical ability as well. His judgment is good, as is seen by the fact that he kept the same “opp” throughout his entire senior year, and always thinks of “Rapp” when he opens a door. “Shanty” has already taught one term in the public schools successfully and intends to make teaching his life profession. Irma Beulah Schucher, ..... East Greenville. I took it for a fairy vision Of some gay creature of the element.—Milton. Irma Beulah Schlicher startled East Greenville with her presence, one beautiful May morning about eighteen summers ago. After graduating with honors from East Greenville High School she decided to satisfy her thirst for knowledge at the Keystone State Normal .School. .She was a faithful student and studied hard, but one term, when she came back to school, she brought a picture. We were not allowed to look over her shoulder, but we hope it proved to be an inspiration. She lamented the fact that she was no taller, but we know “good things come in little packages.” She intends to teach—for a while. Whether she is a product of the Renaissance and Reformation or some other modern event, will be shown, no doubt, by her teaching. 96 Harvey Lewis Sciimoyer, . R. D. i, Zionsville. You talk to me in parables You may have known that I am no wordy man.—Otway. “Zionsville! Never heard of such a place.” This can no longer he said because the contribution which Zionsville made to the world on February 26, 1892, in the form of “Harvey L , has made it possible for every member of our class to know about Zionsville. liver since he was eight years of age he has been filling his poor brain with worthless stuff. He attended the Traubs, Harlem, Huff’s Church, Longswamp High and Keystone Normal Schools, and at all these places he carried the “average grade’ quality. Since he was born in leap year he naturally believes that women should take the opportunity given them on leap year. Harvey L. expects to teach and save for some time, and then after some pleasing maiden has enough courage to put the question to him, he says he will teach and spend. Therefore, my readers, hand in your applications at once, for he is very busy every leap year. Paul Ralph Schmoyer, Kutztown. I ’gin to be a weary of the sun.—Shakespeare. “Fat” set up his first “squeal” five days before Christmas, 1893, and he has been “squealing” ever since. He has often told us that he was a very small and pretty baby. Oh, the mutations of time! He will be a chemist and intended to supersede Doctor Wiley. Certain it is, he will be a conscientious chemist. He advocates a low temperature, for he is built on the wide girth style. “Fat” is an ardent Key-stonian. His propensity for mussing a fellow’s hair is well known and is being satisfied at the barber’s. “Fat” is a jolly, good fellow, who is always saying “Ach! 1 don’t care.” Be careful, Paul, how you overstep the limits of diction. 97 Lillian Edith Schwalm, Muir. Sleeping vegetables lie, I ill the glad summons of a genial ray Unbinds the glebe, and calls them out today.—Garth. I lie girl who never smiles, although she is a good-natured girl and always at your service, never had the name of being a shark, but is good in everything but going to breakfast. She tosses up to see whether to go to breakfast or sleep, and if breakfast loses I.ilv sleeps on, but a gentle reminder from her devoted (?) chum that she has physics at 7.50, gets her to class after the second tap has sounded. On her birthday anniversary, December 15, 1910, Lily no doubt thought she ought to do something desperate. She tried it and to know the story ask Lily or Prof. --------- and you will hear all about the “Eire Escape Episode” or “Seeing and Thinking” at 3 A. M. She is quite a mystery, speaks in riddles, reads V. M. C. A. news (mark you, V. M. C. A.), and follows her motto, “Where silence is bliss ’tis folly to be loquacious.” Her present home, Muir, knows very little about her, but when it learns to solve mysteries, it will no longer judge by appearances. Kenneth Jennings Scott,..............................................Frackville. He was a man, take him for all in all. I shall not look upon his like again.—Shakespeare. Here he is—a boy who makes the best of everything, but who always was of a bashful disposition toward the girls until in his senior year. Kenneth Jennings Scott is this young man’s name. He is small of stature, hails from Frackville, Schuylkill County, and has proven to be a valuable factor in his class. Nothing seems too hard for him, and he will some day reach the tower of fame. Although he has been at the Normal for three years, it is only lately that he has discovered that “ Grace ’’-fulness is one of the greatest qualities a girl can possess. “Stoudt” people are greatly admired by him; others are altogether excluded. He is an ardent patron of the Keystone Literary Society. After graduation he intends to teach, after which he expects to attend college Let’s hope he continues to study German at college, for he is very fond of it and can speak it very eloquently, when one is teasing him. 98 Lena Mary Dillinger Seiberlxng, Nothing was ever just quite right, She used to say and sigh.—Anon. Hats off! “Now do keep quiet!” Here comes Lena and really she cannot bear a noise. It is out of order. Being first ushered into this world on a still starry night, near Kutztown, it was but natural that she should land at Keystone. Lena is a diligent student, earnest in society and a faithful Y. W. C. A. worker. Yet she is not without her special endowments, for she can parry with words in a manner that would make not only her chum, but even the ancient gladiators turn pale with fear. Being spasmodic she both laughs and cries at times. We have not been able to discover whether it is the influence of the moon or the color of the wall paper in her room. We cannot think that she is already afraid that another leap year will pass ere she leaps. Lena will go into the great west. Here she will elucidate the mysteries of science, literature and art until she succeeds in implanting a genuine altruistic and philanthropic spirit in the west. R. D. 3, Tamaqua. George Kune Seidel, ....... Bowers. And if his name be George, I'll call him Peter, Por new-made honor doth forget men's names. —Shakespeare. Just watch! You can almost see the twinkle in this young man’s eye. It almost seems as though he is sitting in chapel and looking for “Grace.” But strange to say, he looks around and not up. Well, his name is George Kline Seidel. Bowers was the fortunate place ’ to receive him, and it kept him until he had exhausted its supply of knowledge and then sent him to Keystone to broaden his views. George was a very diligent (?) worker at his books, but he was a real worker when it came to the automobile. He and his machine are familiar sights around this place. In spite of his training to be a teacher, George agrees with Zwingli that every boy should have a trade. He has, for certain reasons, a great inclination for the “shoemaker” trade. The college will soon lay hold of this member of our class, but we hope that the training given here may prove a help to him in all his work. Success to you! 99 Edna Matilda Seidell, Hamburg. I have not loved the world, nor the world me.—Byron. The renowned town of Pottsville was still decked in holiday attire when Edna arrived there on December 28, 1892. Edna grew up within the shades of the noted county seat of dear old Schuylkill. Her parents then moved to Hamburg, where she received her education. After graduating from Hamburg High School, Edna was ambitious to become a great girl and show her friends what she could do, so she decided to come to K. S. N. S. to prepare for her future work. She was a member of the Philomathean Literary Society, where she showed her ability as a speaker, so much so, that she was elected to represent the society as an anniversary performer. She represented it well and we wish her abundant success as a teacher. Martha Koi.ler Seltzer, ...... Hamburg. But soon as e’er the beauteous maiden spoke Forth from her coral lips such folly broke.—Congreve. Martha Koller Seltzer, commonly known as “Mattie,” was born at Upsala, Orange County, Florida. She certainly does not like oranges or she would not have made Hamburg her home. .She graduated from the high school in 1910 and came directly to the Normal. Her education began at five, and since then she has been a brilliant girl in her class, one whom everybody liked. She is a great admirer of athletics, and her shrill voice is heard at many of the games, especially in basketball. She was the first one to come and the last one to depart. Her favorite amusement, however, is squirting water, and she always wins in a dispute. She has the strength of a “Samson.” She intends to teach school until old and feeble, but mind, “Mattie,” circumstances often alter cases, and you may change your mind before eighteen more years have passed. She is a Philo member. 100 Anna Beulah Shafer, .... 1351 Chew St., Allentown. Hager to hope, but not less firm to bear, Acquainted with all feelings save despair.—Byron. Twenty years ago, in the merry month of May, Anna lay in her cradle in the town of Slatington. But Anna was not long in that inactive stage. After a time she migrated to the “peanut city,” where she graduated from the high school. But as “Nan” believes “A little learning is a dangerous thing,” she made her way to the Keystone Normal to have her mental horizon broadened. “Nan” has lately become known as “Nan Kline” as the result of a famous telegram addressed to her. “Nan” has her interests widely scattered. She is an exceptionally fine singer, is very progressive and has her eyes wide open to many fads. She has at times manifested great interest in the following: “Frats” at a certain college, a Socrates of the same institution, the nobility of Earl(s), and especially the coach (ing) of athletics. After graduation “Nan” intends to teach-------- then? William Shetlock, A man whose blood Is very snow broth; one who never feels The wanton strings and motions of the sense. —Shakespeare. Who’s this? This is William Shetlock, known far and wide. We are told that he has even made himself known in far away Egypt (Lehigh County). This cpiiet young lad registered in Egypt for the first time on February 4, 1892. How this thriving city could get along before “Bill’s” advent is beyond our comprehension. He graduated from the Whitehall Township High School in 1910 and then decided to continue his education at the Normal. “Bill” has been a pillar of honesty and righteousness while at Normal. As a Bible Band teacher he layed stress on the books of the Old Testament, but especially loved to meditate on the mysteries of “Ruth.” In spite of the fact that lie is a pillar of strength and a reformer of morals he is unable to resist “Porter.” “i ill” will in the future be seen carrying his principles and preaching into the wide, wide world. 101 Grace Helen Shoemaker, Lavelle. A maid whom there were none to praise And very few to love.—Wordsworth. Here is a girl who first opened her peepers almost twenty years ago, on a bright sunny morning in May, at Lavelle, Schuylkill County, Pa. She attended the schools at Lavelle, graduated from Ashland High School, and from thence came to Keystone Normal. She is very lively and nobody can get ahead of her. Her favorite book at school is history, for sh takes great pleasure in reading about the George’s. But mind, Grace, a ‘‘George’’ in this world of ours is of more importance than those of years ago, hence some attention must be paid to him. Grace is a member of the Keystone Society. Her ambition in the future is to teach school and entertain little folks. Elmer Ellsworth Sipe, R. D. 4, Lewistown. I dare do all that may become a man; Who dares do more is none.—Shakespeare. Hark ! 1 he silence of the still starry night was broken and Mifflin County gives us a product which in eloquence and piety compares favorably with any produced by the Renaissance and Reformation. Evolving through various stages as a farmer, fisherman, scholar, stereogram salesman, soap seller, teacher and poet, we will next see him finding the “little angels” that you read about. 1 hat he can find them we have good reasons to believe. Elmer is one of the “four martyrs” of our class. Like those of old he is happy with his lot and cannot be separated from it. Philo is proud of him, both as a member and as a representative at the last anniversary. Being emancipated lrom the solution of that serious question which still disturbs most of us, he will not have to lose any time “dreaming,” but his earnestness and industry will straightway place him at the head of some great fountain of knowledge and power. 102 Minnie Lucetta Sittler, New Tripoli. I must become a borrower of the night For a dark hour or twain.—Shakespeare. On this rainy day of October 28, 1893, the stork braved the wilds of Lehigh County and brought to New Tripoli a new housekeeper who chanced to be Minnie Lucetta Sittler. Here she attended the little red school house on the hill, from which she was graduated in the spring of 1909. Thirsting for knowledge her footsteps were turned to our beloved Keystone Normal. She is one of Philo’s faithful members. She upholds the Lutheran doctrine, and we are proud to say she is no suffragette. Her intentions are to teach, though she is not certain. Should she ever continue her education in some higher institution of learning, no one could keep her from Yale. That girl Minnie will always be remembered. May success crown her earnest efforts. Raymond William Smith, Top ton. Hi plain in dress, and sober in your dress; Tn short, my deary, kiss me and be quiet. Montague. One of those bright and happy days of yore, July the twenty-ninth of ninety-four, Brought to this world a babe so fair and sweet They had decreed that whatsoe’er he’d ask, E’en if to them ’twould make a heavy task Would surely to him granted be one day When he had grown to be a mighty Ray.” So when they asked him while in joyful jjlee, He answered them, “ Well, can't you plainly see What I'll become when childhood days are gone! I ll furnish stylish hats to every zone.” “Ray” is an active member of societies, being a member of four societies of which we know the names of three. The last one is the one mostly attended. The manner in which they are attended is first the unknown, second the P. O. S. of A., third the M. and A., and fourth the Philo. 103 Carrie Rebecca Snyder Girardville. A full rich nature free to trust. Truthful and almost sternly just. Whittier. Some time after the Golden Age of Girardville, events did not cease to happen, which is shown by the birth of Carrie Rebecca Snyder. Having completed her rural school course she was graduated from a business college, following which she was a stenographer for two years. Then she was ushered into the Normal in 1909. She is a Lutheran and a member of Keystone. Her . M. C. A. work caused her to study the Bible closely, and she is very much interested in the people of Israel. She will teach, after which she expects to take up a course in domestic science. She is known as the “fight cat” of the class; whether or not she is the best remains to be decided. Carrie, your Alma Mater is proud of you. We hope to hear of your successful results ere long. Clara Keil Snyder, Perkasie. Some fair, sweet girl, with skillful hand And cheerful heart for treasure Whittier. On Lincoln’s Birthday in 1893, Clara Keil Snyder first peeped around the corner of Fifth and Chestnut Streets, Perkasie, Pa. She was graduated from the Perkasie High School in 1910. She entered the Normal as a Junior Middler in 1910. She is a member of the Evangelical Church, a Philo and a sulTragette. She takes a great interest in geography, especially so when the study of the Lapps and Finns is at hand. .She expects to teach in connection with lecturing for “Votes for women.” No doubt, some day we shall see her at Washington in company with some senator—at least the earnest hope is that her wishes be granted. 04 R. D. i, West Leesport. Stella DeLong Snyder, The laddie who wishes this lassie to win Must tickle her gently under the chin. Stella means star, as all Virgilians will tell you, and a star Stella has been for years. Garfield is the place she hails from, and although it is not to be found on the map, it has through her become quite famous. Stella, as you all know, is an intellectual giant, but that mental strength of hers resides in a small body. Take comfort from these words, () Stella: “Good things always come in small packages.’’ She will bestow upon the youths of this State the blessing of her knowledge, and intends to make teaching a profession until Prince Charming comes along. It is doubtful whether he will get her, since she is so very shy and reticent. The only way has been suggested above. Hilda Leanna Souerwine, ..... Slatington. Hut every night she studied. Nor stopped to play at all.—Maine. Hilda is another of that famed Slatington “bunch.” That day was certainly a “gala” day in the beautiful month of September, 1893. No wonder the future society bud has such a sunny temperature. Hilda graduated from the high school of her home town and then took a post-graduate course at the same school. Normal Schools always were an attraction to her and that’s the reason she’s here. .She tells us she will be a teacher, but how long we don’t know. You know we have never been to Slatington. Success to Hilda Leanna in her profession as sehoolmarm(?). 105 Edith May Spohn, ....... Weatherly. She was his care, his hope and his delight. Most in his thoughts and ever in his sight.—Dkydrn. Edith May Spohn first saw the light of day on a clear, bright morning in May under Carbon County skies, in Weatherly. Her name is derived from the month in which she was born. She is a studious girl. All her younger days were spent in the public schools of Weatherly. Since at the Normal she has become a favorite among all her classmates. She is an ardent worker of the Keystone Literary Society, and a bright future awaits her. Her favorite amusement is going fishing, the favorite one being “sonny.” Sunnies are generally small fish. This “sonny” is also small, but a beautiful one. She is a great tennis player and never minds being sunburnt as long as she can play with an affinity of hers. Success to you, “ Edie.” Hazel Viola .Stauffer, ....... Lehighton. “God bless the man who first invented sleep ’ So said Saucho Panza and so said I.—Saxe. When the March winds were howling around the corners of Lehighton and the snow was lightly filling the earth with its soft covering, this little daughter of Venus was ushered into the cruel world. .She has ever since been a ray of sunshine, always looking on the bright side of life. Hazel, commonly known as “Kiss,” attended the public schools and graduated from the high school of Lehighton. Being eager to learn more she journeyed to K. S. N. S. and claims that her head gets so full of knowledge that she must sleep it off. “Sleep” is the name for it, for almost any hour of the day when “Kiss” is not in class she may be found taking her well-needed rest. During the spring of her middle year she spent a good bit of her time playing ball on the campus. The results of this are the beautiful adornments in her room that represent “.State.” She is particularly fond of automobiles and of animals of all kinds. She is not afraid of the wild ones either, and especially the “G(o)rillie.” 106 Lenhartsville Lettie Mabel Stoudt, Her air, her smile, her motions Uml Of womanly completeness -Whittikr. Behold, reader, a very quiet maiden, Lettie Mabel Stoudt. Lettie attended the public schools of Lenhartsville and came to K. S. N. S. to complete her education. Since the new school code is being enforced, she is not able to teach and will spend another year at this institution, after which it is hard to say what will come. Time alone will tell. Whatever her calling may be, we feel sure she will be a success, for her work here has been a credit to all who know her. There is one thing she has learned to do and that she does to perfection. It is entertaining. Lettie very successfully entertained the “Dog Conference” in her room one evening during the winter term. She became quite nervous toward the end of the meeting and kindly asked the little band to adjourn. But this obstinate band of suffragettes was not to be removed until they had received orders from higher authority. Amos Monroe Strauss, .... Cheerful at morn, he wakes from short repose, Breathes the keen air and carols as he goes.—Goldsmith. Crack! Bang! Scarcely had the fireworks, celebrating Independence Day in 1892, sent their last loud peals over the hills of Pottsville, when patriotic little Amos rose up and declared himself eligible to take a hand in the celebrations. Anxious ever since to serve his country with heart and head, he screened the native schools of all their intellectual power, whence he straightway betook himself to Kutztown. Amos is a born athlete. You can tell by his proportions. His rotundity is so symmetrical that he covers the floor almost as rapidly and smoothly that way as on all fours. “Duffy” (not related to the famous whiskey maker, for he is a Prohibitionist) is the champion reader of the boys’ side. His mind is ever and anon doing nothing but reading, reading, reading (Reedy). Ah, yes, he even indulges in this pastime on the campus. “ Duffy,” as the fates foretell, will either be a philosopher, or butcher, or lumber dealer, or postmaster, or doctor, or minister; well, yes, he might also become one more important thing—a married man, for instance. Pottsville. 107 LeRoy Eare Swoyer, Nan Rosalin;Sykes, East Texas. And strange as it seems, yet he constantly deems The world standing still, while he’s dreaming his dreams. —Nichols. “ Rosebud ” is a most peculiar personage and would not for any reason engage in any athletic sports. lie cares naught for ladies (?) and says he has no use for a queen unless accompanied by a knave and an ace. “ Rosebud,” although he looks the personification of health, thinks the climate of lower East Texas does not agree with him, therefore he takes frequent walks up the hill for his health. The girls are very found of him, but he does not reciprocate. Get a move on, “Rosebud,” and start something. Cardston, Alberta, Canada. The only daughter of King George That brings her talent to our shore.—Anon. Nan Rosalin Sykes first opened her eyes, somewhere between sunrise and sunset, in Clearfield County. She therefore was a naturalized American girl, but she did not like American rule, so she decided to become a subject of George V. She preferred, however, American education. Her present home is at Cardston, Alburtis County, Canada. Her father owns a large farm there, and for that reason she takes special lessons in agri culture under Doctor Grim. She intends to implant all the modern devices that pertain to agriculture on some range in Canada. One peculiarity of Nan is that she has a great fondness for speaking the “sus tut” language, especially with those of the opposite sex. She is a great giggler and belongs to the Philo Society. Nan expects to teach after graduation, but she has not decided whether she will take a helpmeet along from this country or select one of John Bull’s subjects. 108 Marie Constable Thomas, ..... Conshohocken. Pointing to the polar star Ilung the needle of the compass, Born beside a sandy bar Was Marie Constable Thomas. Marie passed her childhood in her native village of Baltimore, where she attended the public schools until fifteen years of age. Now she migrated to Conshohocken, where she completed the high school course in 1910. Keystone Normal was her next resting place. Here, though a constable, as you will notice, she however failed in her assault on “Frederick the Great.’’ Too stern or probably sterner he must have been, we presume. Then, too, through a series of tedious tasks she acquired a wonderful imagination. This she uses on the Philo members with striking effect. Marie hopes to teach school. She will no doubt teach until her philanthropic spirit overcomes her and she marries a handsome young man just to save him from the disgrace of a bachelor’s life. Ada Luella Tice, East Texas. What though the sun with ardent frown Had slightly tinged her cheek to brown Scott. Though the winds of March may roar, though the turbulent torrent may tear towers and towns to destruction, yet in all this agitation, in so violent a tumult, there is bound to come to this earth some new genius. Thus it was with our Ada on this stormy day of March 27, 1893. During her school career before she came to the Normal School she tarried at East Texas, where she was taught from “the A, B, C to the “fifth reader.” During her stay at Normal she has daily had the pleasure of talking with her own dear “ Bill,” but he having stopped going to school she immediately changed to Harry. 109 Marguerite Mary Tobin, Minersville. I am always in haste, but never in a hurry.—Wesley. Miss Marguerite comes from Schuylkill County, where she made her first appearance in 1894. The Buck Run private school was the object of her attention for several years, after which she entered the Normal. She is a member of the Keystone Literary Society. We know these little “tots” up in Schuylkill will have an awfully sweet teacher, especially if they remember Marguerite’s birthday with a box of candy. She’s a terror after “sweets.” Grant Trautman, ....... Hebe. Oppressed with two w’eak evils, age and hunger. —Shakespeare. Grant Trautman first imbibed of this world’s ozone on January 21, 1888, in Northumberland County, at a jilace called Hebe, in honor of Hebe, the goddess of youth. Probably because Hebe is so suggestive of the idea of staying young, Grant has always preferred to make his home there. He attended the high school at Pillow for a time, and although he did not graduate, we feel certain that he was not a “sham” at Pillow (pillow sham). Deciding to follow his father’s footsteps, he became a teacher and accordingly taught for three terms in the public schools of his native county. Judging from all reports he has not always been able to escape Cupid’s arrows, and since he has been at Normal he has shown great skill in dodging all approaching dangers in this line. Grant is a Reformed, a Philo and a Republican—a rare combination. He expects to make teaching his life work, and we venture to predict that unless something very unusual should happen, he will be a complete success. no Harry Daniel WagEnhurst, ..... Kutztown. He knows what’s what, and that's as high As metaphysic wit can fly.—Butler. Here’s Harry Wage'nhurst, a beautiful Kutz-town sport. The exact date of his birth does not seem to be recorded. But it is remembered that he was a cute baby and could jump from the highest chair in the house when only two years old. He attended the public school and later the Kutztown High School. From the latter institution Harry entered Keystone Normal, where he has now spent three years. In the classroom he has always been faithful and progressive. His work in Keystone Society is also commendable. Mr. Wagenhurst was a member of the baseball and basketball teams. He had an idea these heavy athletic games were rather dangerous and hard work on the part of the players, so he resigned or abdicated (or was abdicated). During the senior year Harry had one slight attack of loveache, which he seems to have contracted from a little Boyertown girl. He says that he will become a bachelor, a minister or an engineer. Bayard Feather Wagner, Though short my stature, yet my name extends To heav'n itself, and earth’s remotest end.—Pope In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth; since then he created little Bayard. Bayard began his education in the public schools of New Hanover. Next Bayard decided to grace and adorn the Normal by his brilliance. As he doesn’t take up much room he passed through his junior and middle years with little adventure. But in senior year “Shorty astounded the class by his new style “teddy. Its popularity was attested to when he returned from an escapade to Fleetwood, wearing an F. C. pin (meaning either ‘ ‘ first call ” or “ fast company ”). Most men look on the face of a watch to see the hour, but “Hans” likes to see an “hower by his side, especially at lectures. Between lectures Bayard was a strenuous student of Latin, and by taking up extra work in the subject became famous as one of our “twelve Caesars. 111 New Hanover. Mary Mercedes Wayne, ..... Mahanoy Plane. Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.—Shakespeare. Mary Mercedes Wayne was born some time after the Civil War. She attended the public schools of Mahanoy City, her home town. Mary soon displayed her ability as a student and decided to continue her education at K. S. N. S. During her senior year she was forced to leave the school on account of illness. This, however, did not discourage her, for she again resumed her work with the class of 1912. She was a member of the Keystone Society and proved to be very active in literary work, so much so, that she was chosen as a representative of the anniversary of this society. We sincerely hope that Mary enjoyed being a member of the class of 1912. Here's to her success in her future work, whatever it may be. Elizabeth Weaver, ... Ferndale. Her thoughts are never memories. Hut ever changeful, ever new. Fresh and beautiful as the dew. And thus she walks among the girls Making happy all she knew. Her looks tell us just exactly what she is. She is a kind, quiet, unassuming girl, who came here in the spring of 1910. She says, “When you read, read and digest it.’’ (She generally has the dictionary close at hand as a means for removing any jawbreakers or for avoiding all false impressions.) A lover of all kinds of outdoor sports and a possessor of some of the qualities of an artist, she is always “Ernest” in her purpose. May success be yours, Elizabeth. 112 Ferndale. Martha Weaver, This bud of lovely Summer's ripening breath May prove a beauteous flower when next we meet. —Shakespeare. Well, friends, don't judge this little woman by her size, for all “dear” things are generally small in their dimensions. Martha’s girlhood days were spent at Ferndale, where she attended the village school until her ideas and learning soared above those of her surroundings and she took refuge at K. S. N. S. Oh! how this girl would read, ardent and sincere, ever seeking something new! Martha’s future looks rather suspicious, for she intends taking up a course in domestic science; but what her idea is we do not know. Success without bounds to you, Martha. Maude Eeinda Weimer, 1714 W. Market St., Pottsville. Heart on her lips and soul within her eyes. Soft as her clime and sunny as her skies.—Byron. Maude Elinda, one of our sedate, ambitious and energetic (?) girls was born at Shainokin, Fa., March 1, 1893. She attended the academy school at that place and also spent one year in high school, after which her parents moved to Pottsville. She graduated from the Pottsville High School in the year 1910, after which she continued her education at the Keystone State Normal School. She was a very active member of the Young Women’s Christian Association, having served as corresponding secretary of this organization. Then, too, she is a member of the Philo Literary Society, where she possesses one fame of being an excellent librarian. Maude always seemed to be interested in books, but we have lately discovered that there is another attraction in the library besides books. Maude is very fond of nature, and spends a great deal of her time strolling in the country, especially in the morning before breakfast. But, all in all, Maude is a good girl and we all feel assured that she will be successful in her future work. i'3 Walter William Werley, Top ton. Twice five and seven years ago There came unto this world below A user of the cue so dear, A wonder at the ivory sphere. This youth attended the Top ton graded schools and then came to our Normal School, in which school he lost himself one of his first days. He however also lost himself when he thought it best to leave his watch under the cherry tree and take flight when the farmer came. Walter has been a day student up to the winter term of his senior year, after which time he was a boarding student. This was probably due to the fact that Walter was getting awfully cunning at the ivories. As to the opposite sex we have not much to say, except that we advise him not to make a lantern search for him necessary. When school is over “ Doc ” will enter a medical school and follow his father’s footsteps. Grace Olivia Wertz,...............................................Bernharts. What winning graces, what majestic mien! She moves a goddess, and she looks a queen.—Pope. Just one glance, dear reader, tells the tale, for this fair damsel is none other than our little bashful girl, Grace Olivia Wertz. Grace attended the public schools of Hyde Bark and later migrated to Kutztown, where she entered the Normal School. Here she became musically inclined, and we may some day hear of Mademoiselle Wertz, the great singer. Now, Grace is one of the ancient race, for she was born July 14, 1732. By this we can readily see that she is old enough to vote. Beware! .She strongly advocates woman’s suffrage. For one short term Grace lived under the same roof with us and enjoyed the same “eats.” In this time she made many friends and did some things for which she is to lie remembered. She is very fond of weddings, being a prominent member of a mock ceremony during that term. You ask who the groom was? Well, ask her or her neighbors. Grace is also fond of going to the opera. Her one chief delight is seeing “East ‘Lin’”(s). It’s all right, Grace, you won't havejto teach till you are pensioned anyway. ”4 Eli Richard Will, . . . . . . R. D. i, Zionsville. O what may man within him hide. Though angel on the outward side.—Anon. Eli Richard Will, a shining light. This is the best title we can think of for Eli. He is an active member of the Keystone Society, serving as its president on Keystone anniversary and besides rendered arduous labors as chairman of the Bible Band committee during senior year. Despite this outside work, Eli worked hard at his regular work and represented the class at the commencement exercises. Eli discovered that there was at least one member of the Middle class who was charming enough to attract attention. He thought it a shame that the fellows should yell “peg it” when rooting at the ball games. Leave (Levan) them alone, Eli. They aren’t doing it just to tantalize you. Eli has successfully taught three terms in the schools of Pennsylvania. He has already answered the question, “ ‘Eli Will’ do what?” and will re-enter teaching as a profession. We predict a marvelous success for him in this his chosen life-work. Blanche Harland Williams, 301 1st St., Slatington. A foot more light, a step more true. Ne’er from the heath flower dashed the dew.—Scott. Blanche Harland Williams, our promising journalist and future furore in the literary world, came to bless her parents on March 11, 1894, at Kelayres, Pa. Born in March! No wonder she’s so breezy. Well, Blanche graduated from that celebrated high school at Slatington with a high standing. Last September Miss Williams blew into Kutz-town to attend our Normal. Here she has gone into the work with a will, and we fear some of her future college “chums” will have a hard struggle if they wish to surpass Blanche in journalism. Look for her name a few years hence in the most popular society journal in the country, published, of course, at Slatington. ”5 Wilson Edgar Wimmer, Ruth Mary Rebecca V Bingen. My mind is such as may not move For beauty bright or force of love. Dyer. Wilson Wimmer opened his peepers about a score of years ago at Hellertown and eighteen years later he came to the Normal. He is a lanky fellow with the strength of an ox and is always in stable equilibrium, which comes from the fact that he stands upon a broad foundation. East year the coach decided to make a basketball center out of him and he accomplished it to a great extent. Many a time Wilson came sprinting so fast across the gym floor that his feet refused to carry him, and as a result the wood received “indentions” from his solid head, and he in return received “extensions.” He is a lefthander, and as a result his style of play was such as to confuse the rest. lie is a bashful fellow and still believes in reddening when something peculiar happens. Often he would rather sit in his room than pass a few of the “fair sex,” but before so very long he will forget this nonsense and come to the rescue of some pretty girl. He is a member of Keystone Society. itman, ..... Pottsville. Put out the light, and then put out the light.—Shakespeare. Behold, reader, one of our most dignified ladies of the class, Ruth Mary Rebecca Witman. Ruth was born in Orwigsburg about eighteen years ago. She attended the public schools in the small town of Pottsville, graduated from the high school of this same village in 1910, and then came to the Keystone State Normal School. Here she entered the class of 1912 with that wonderful title, “Junior-Middler,” a name of which she was proud and a class in which she was successful. Her success is clearly shown by the fact that she graduated cum I nude. Ruth has always been a real good girl while here; that is, we thought she was; but if we only knew. The sign in her room, “Get what you want, then go,” might make us believe how studious she was; but if one could have seen her one cold winter night leading “Fido around the halls, all opinions would have changed. But with it all, Ruth really was a good student and our best wishes go out for her success, whatever her calling may be. 116 1435 Muhlenberg St., Reading. Teresa Woomert, 1 have no other hut a woman’s reason, I think him so because I think him so.—Shakespeare. Not a quarter of a century ago, a very intelligent girl, by name Teresa Woomert, first opened her eyes. Her preparatory education was gotten at the Reading public schools. In the year 1907, Tete” was the writer of one of the essays which enabled her to attend the Jamestown Exposition. She was a very diligent student in Reading High. “Tete” came to the Keystone Normal as a senior, September 1, 1912. She is great in Latin. One of the girls who sat near her in Latin often said, “My, how she goes along; nothing seems to hinder her.” .She is a member of the Keystone Literary Society and the V. W. C. A. In these she is an active member. Next year Teresa will be going to New Jersey, there to begin her first year in teaching. May she have abundant success. Ai.ma Edna Wuchter, .... 463 Tilghman St., Allentown. llcr voice is like a trumpet loud and shrill Which bids all sounds in earth and heaven be still.—Jonson. Alma is the prima donna of the class. She is really remarkable. There is nothing she cannot do if she really wants to. If Alma likes you then the sun shines, but woe to her or (it is very seldom a him) whom she dislikes. She is a girl of moods. “Nuf sed.” Alma was always reluctant to enter classrooms, but would saunter through the corridors aimlessly until a certain person hove in sight. Then she took aim and hit hard. Cupid’s magic wand seemed to turn the formidable halls into young lovers’ lanes. She is a graduate of Allentown High School and has taken up harmony and expects to cultivate children’s musical talents. 117 Charles Oliver Yale, Walnutport. He could on either side dispute, Confute, change hands, and still confute.—Butlef. Charles Oliver Yale, Walnutport, Pa., came to the Normal in the spring of 1911. He soon proved to be a wonder among his classmates, not only in his studies, but also in traits and tricks. As a student, he is a hard worker, trying to make the best of the opportunities that the school affords. He believes in Communism and Socialism; that is, he likes to share food with those who have none, for instance, “ Limburger cheese.” He is also a great finisher of ‘‘cut glass” when electric-bulbs are near. He is possessed of a great musical talent, his voice ringing like a stone shaken in a can. He is heard from morn till night. He is very persevering, however, and always studies his lessons at an early hour. He is greatly talented and a bright future awaits Charles Oliver. The proper spirit of a Philo member controls this young man’s being. Minnie-ha-ha! used to be his favorite expression. Clarence Howard Yoder, . . .. Kutztown. Take him to develop, if you can, And hew the block off. and get out the man.—Pope. Little but mighty. Clarence is the product not of the Renaissance and the Reformation, but of the up-to-date Model department of Keystone. Clarence is an athlete of exceptional ability. In baseball or basketball he takes a place second to none. Here as in the classroom he works earnestly, unconscious of those longing “bright eyes that watch over and guard him. One of the shining stars in Philo’s crescent, he added much to her glory with his power and talents. Outside, however, he never spake a word more than was need, thinking perhaps that the old maxim still applied to little boys. Ivre long this boy will be the head of some famous fountain of knowledge, abundantly supplying all thirsting souls with truth to guide them in the way of life. May he be happy, be prosperous, but not ever be unconscious. 118 Edna Bechtel Yoder, . . • Boyertown. Well I know her; Of easy temper, naturally good.—Drydkn. Hello! Here’s “ Ivdna B.” vShe hails from Boyertown, but was born in Reading, September 23, 1892. Edna attended several different public schools, graduating at Byers in 1908. After spending a year at the Lyonville High School, she entered the Junior class at K. S. N. S. Here Miss Yoder has always been faithful in class and popular among the girls. She can make a lot of noise and fun even if she is small. Edna just likes to say, “Not for that.” Miss Yoder joined the Y. W. C. A. and the Keystone Literary Society, honoring both organizations by her membership. She has formerly thought that the development of her will was the chief factor of her future success and happiness, but, sad to tell, she has lately changed her opinion. Miss Yoder will likely teach several years, after which she may take a trip to Niagara Falls with somebody. Not so? Elizabeth Pearl Yost, This, this is misery! the last, the worst That man can feel.—Pope. The town of Middleport claims the honor of having been the birthplace of Elizabeth Pearl Yost. She was born May 31st. She received her earlier education in the schools of McKeansburg, Schuylkill County, where she still resides. “Beth” was endowed with great powers, and consequently she entered K. S. N. S. in the fall of 1910. She soon had a host of friends and won popularity through the twinkle in her eye and her pleasing disposition. “Beth” is very studious (?). She experienced several disappointments during the year, which we will let her explain, and each time she became more studious. She is very much interested in athletics, as well as athletes. Of course, we all saw the “football” fob that Beth” wears. She says she will teach the remainder of her life, but we are sure she shall take a course in athletics. She is sure of a competent teacher, and she tells us that he is a senior at college now (1912 b So we draw our own conclusions. Good-bye, “Beth.” 119 McKeansburg. IN MEMORIAM. hereas, it lias pleased the will of our Heavenly Father to call Home to the realms where pain and suffering are unknown, Gwennie C. Newhard, a faithful and beloved member of our class, of the Y. W. C. A., and of the Keystone Literary Society; therefore, be it Resolved, that we as her classmates extend this tribute of love, in remembrance of her many virtues. Resolved, that we deeply regret being deprived of so promising and earnest a classmate, and that her young life should be taken away at the time when it was budding into beauty and service. Resolved, that we offer our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved family and friends as a testimony of respect and esteem, and that we sincerely pray them be consoled, since we with them a mutual burden bear and since our loss is her gain. Resolved, that we as members of the Senior class cherish her memory that it may inspire us to nobler living. And that a floral tribute be sent. Resolved, that a copy of these resolutions be sent to the bereaved family and that they be printed in the Class book of 1912 and the Normal Vidette. Ida M. Dennison, Anna B. Con wav, Walter Lapp, Committee. 120 CLASS SONG. (Tune— Juanita.”) Come, dearest comrades, Let us raise our banner high; Raise it, dear classmates, Victory is nigh. Tis for but few moments That we here will longer dwell; Then may school be guidance, When we’ve said farewell. Cho.— Keystone, oh Keystone, Mayst thou daily grow in fame. Keystone, dear Keystone, We revere thy name. Now to our teachers, Whom we’ve learned to love so well; We, grateful pupils, Bid a sad farewell. We will falter never, Till that purpose is fulfilled, Which, with much endeavor, Has been well instilled. Cho.—Teachers, oh teachers, Who showed us what course to take; Teachers, dear teachers, You, we’ll not forsake. Swiftly hours are flying; So to all we love so well; While the day’s dying, Bid we fond farewell. Thus we part asunder, Bidding all our last farewell, With hope to meet yonder, Where God’s angels dwell. Clio.—Classmates, oh classmates, Do your duty 'tis the best. Classmates, dear classmates, Leave to God the rest. Robert Rhoads Hoppes. I 2 ( Name Birthday Hbi Jacob Henry Adam........... Florence Reber Ahn........ Feme Estella Altemose.....
