G. H. S. SPOTLIGHT 21 FRESHMEN CLASS OFFICERS PRESIDENT-Kenneth Statler VICE PRESIDENT--Osborne Edwards SECRETARY-Mabel Barnes TREA SURE R-Lorraine Pensinger CLASS COLORS-Cardinal and White CLASS FLOWER-Red and White Carnations CLASS MOTTO-Begin at the Bottom and Climb up FRESHMEN CLASS HISTORY On September 8, eighty bashful boys and girls stumbled into Main Room. Thirty-one of us had come up from the Greencastle eighth grade, and forty-nine had come from sur- rounding localities. We were so dumbfound- ed at the vastness of the Main Room that we hardly knew where to go or what to do. About a month after school had begun we held our first class meeting with Mr. Grove as our class advisor. We olganizeal at this time and felt as though we had a right to be counted in old G. H. S. Accompanied by the Sophomores, we left one Friday evening early in October for Cold Springs, where we all had a most enjoyable time at a Weenie roast . Mr. and Mrs. Grove, Miss Gentzel, Miss Phillippy, and Mr, Way were the chaperones. All four classes decided to have one large party in the gym on the Friday night before Halloween. Different members of the upper classes dec01'ated the gym and arranged for the games and refreshments-ginger bread, cider, pretzels, and candy. Some of our members have made ine re- cords in basketball, hockey, track, and base- ball. We hope to keep up our records and make them still better during the three com- ing years.

22 G. H. S. SPOTLIGHT There are now seventy-five in our class and we miss those who have left so soon. We hope to keep all our present members so that we may graduate the largest and best class in G. H. S. -Mabel Barnes. ALUMNI W. W. McKinnie . ,. , President Kenneth Gaver. . . , First Vice President G. Herman Goetz , . Second Vice President Kathryn Finfrock ,.., . . Secretary Mary S. Gordon . Assistant Secretary Harold Pensinger , . Treasurer DEDICATING OUR LIVES FOR A PUR- POSE. The Graduating Class of 1932 has reached the beginning of larger realizations and hopes for the future. The Good Old High School Days are past, the course has been com- pleted, and like many other graduates at this time of year they are wondering just what they will do with their lives. If your preparations during your high school days have been honest and faithful, if you have done the best you could to attain a high standard and played the game fair, you can look back with few regrets. Other grad- uates who have preceded you have looked up- on the obtaining of an education as a worthy purpose, a worth while aim, for those who have succeeded in the three score years or less, have had a lofty purpose, have been at- tracted by an ideal that was big enough. A definite choice of a vocation must be made, which cannot be done without some thought to guide you in an aptness and fitness for the place in life awaiting you to fill, for the door of opportunity has opened for you to enter. You stand on its threshold and, possibly, but dimly see in the distance the mountain peaks which call us from the lower levels to the top of usefulness where there is plenty of room. where you may dedicate yourself and your tal- ents to a life work for the benefit and blessing of mankind, where noble men and devoted women have become great teachers in their struggle to overthrow ignorance or arrayed themselves and their energies against the pre- valence of poverty and indigence. Others have won fame and written their names large on life's pages by conquering the powers of darkness and radiating the everlasting light of a christian civilization. The need of moral and christian charact- er with honest integrity is greater today than ever before and the social and religious train- ing which you have received from christian men and women will safeguard and qualify you for an entrance into the work which you may choose. The Alumni Association with hearty cou- gratulations welcomes you into their number with sincere wishes for your continued suc- cess as you advance in the accumulating of knowledge and facts for the well-being and service of man. JOKES John: Did your girl ever dye? Harry: Why no. John: Well mine did. She dyed one of her dresses last night. A boy was working in a corn field when Ll man going along the road said: Boy, your corn looks kind of yellow . The Falmer Boy- Yep, I planted yellow corn . Old Man: Don't look like you'll get more than a half crop . The Farmer Boy- Don't expect to, we are farming on the half . Mr. Jones: Mr. Smith: How do you heat your house? With hot air. Mr. Jones: But 'isn't that rather expensive? Mr. Smith: No. My wife furnishes all of it Dody: I'll wait on you after school. Cleda: Oh heavens! don't wait on me: you're too heavy. Mrs. Green: Your little daughter is the very image of your relatives. She has her grand- mc-ther's nose, her grandfather's eyes, and her Uncle John's chin. Little Girl: Mother, what do I have that is all my own? -Mabel Barnes
