Bakkon Harry has long been a permanent fixture in Eas- ton High School. He is known especially among teachers and students alike as a great wit, ami he certainly enjoys his witticisms himself. It is very unfortunate that our school was without Mr. Barron's services at intervals during the past school year. Possessed of a very pleasing disposition, with a kind word and a hearty laugh, Harry will always lie remembered by 1917. He has the good wishes of the Class for the future. Charles W. Cyphers Charley succeeded to the janitorship upon the death of John But . With his sunny disposition, his many pleasant remarks, ami other kind traits toward the students in general, he has endeared him- self to everyone of the student body of Easton High School. We will say for Charles that he is a very excellent disciplinarian, ami his words arc weighted with as much sincerity as any member of the faculty. It is hoped that Mr. Cyphers will be at the helm for many years to come in order to guide the entering Freshmen into the deep realms of seniority. Good luck, Charley. John Gomrinckr Mr. Goniringcr took Mr. Barron's place during his absence. John is a droll character which goes to make him a unique personage in Easton High School. He has gone about his work with a will that has made him especially well liked by all with whom he came into contact. He has the good wishes of the Class. is
