 Dedication OUR years ago the Class of 1917 entered the Easton High School, strange, unacquainted, inexperienced in the ways and customs of high school life. But time with its magic hand has altered conditions; we have com- pleted our sojourn here, but not without a weird strange- ness which challenges the reality of this bit of history. As we pause upon the threshold we cannot restrain a feeling of sadness which comes to us as we think of leaving teachers and friends whom we have grown to love. While any and all of this group have contributed to the make-up of our advancement from their intellect and virtues, there is one of this number who has stood with us in peculiar sympathy and co-operation. Coming into the institution at the time of the entrance of the Class and carrying with him a spirit of rejuvenation so much needed in our arduous school life, he was front the first a friend constant and sincere, an advisor ready and helpful, a teacher patient and effective. It is to him, so earnest, yet so capable of enjoyment, so impartial, yet so willing to cheer us all that we the Class of 1917 dedicate these pages in highest appreciation of a noble and inspir- ing friendship. To Mr. Herman D. Wolff
