p ffl. ftlvanf ffferslyey Mr. Hershey was born in Lancas- ter. on December 28th, 1897. He at- . tended the lower schools of that city and graduated from Lancaster High School in 1915, which year he enter- ed Franklin and Marshall College. Here he made rapid strides and was progressing when the war trumpet sounded. Although students were exempt from service, the call of duty surged strong in Mr. Hershey and late in the. spring of 1917, he . joined the colors. He saw active' service overseas for two years and when he was dis- charged, he returned to college to complete what he had begun so well. In 1921 he graduated from Franklin' and Marshall College and in the fall of that year taught Spanish there. He also coached soccer at the Academy. It was about this time that Mr. Hershey was seized with the desire to travel and, as a consequence, Fate directed his steps to the Detroit CountrytDay School where he taugfat French and Latin. Things were going welf., but again the wanderlust seized. him and, after teaching for one year at Detroit, he decided to enter the field of business in Phila- delphia. L' The fall of 1923 found Mr. Hershey playing the role of a business man but the call of teaching was strong within him. After a few months of business, he returned to teaching. lVe find him with us, teaching Spanish and French, as a result of his last clriange. g The faculty picture was taken before Mr. Q?lershey's arrival and it was felt that lie should not be omitted. His patience and forbearance of our errors have won him an enviable place in the hearts of all. May he remain with us. I I
