COMMENCEMENT ARGUS QI I9 Class Poem Not to recall the passing of the years We spent within the walls of Central High, Not to relate the emotions that we feel As our commencement draws so near at hand: Not e'en to sing the love that rises high Nor do we write to bid our last farewells To our schoolmates, or to our High School life, For all these things have been recorded true, Unconsciously, upon our memories Within the past three years, in ink so dark That nothing can erase them from our minds. We write with one high aim: that Twenty-five Be known in our school's history as a class Of upright, fine, courageous, loyal girls. And by our glorious motto we have hope That in the many paths of life we take Not one of us shall lose the purpose true That carried her successful to the end Of her dear High School days: and while we hope We breathe toward Heaven a sincere, earnest prayer Just as the branches of the tall, white pine Reach ever toward the sun, nor look below To mourn their cast-off wilted former selves, May we with courage look beyond the time When we shall drop our first Well-loved branch To all the better things we feel must lie Beyond that first great step so near at hand. Oh! Let us carry with us to the end The spur to ever On and Upward strivel So may we find true happiness, and know That, 'though the way seem difficult and hard, We're better for each twig that We put forth,-- Each bud we ope. Then, at the lovely glow Of even, we who learned the secret fine Shall see above the brambles and the weeds About our feet, and, lifting up our heads, Shall see the colors fading from the skyg Content to know we are so rich and blessed That we can have the beauties of the day Pass from our sight, and with new eyes behold The perfect beauty of a starry night, Mystic, unknown before, now full of glorious light MARY ESTHFR DEIHL uv U91 Within us when we hear our dear class praisedg

This great addition to the home is guaranteed not to dent, bend, or crack even with the most severe treatment. After an intensive study in the art of automobile driving, Miss Sara Ripka, a distinguished of the city has at the end of five year perfected a device which will permit drivers to retain absolute con- trol of the car while giving more attention to a view of the surrounding landscape. A'utomobile drivers are indebted to Miss Ripka for her use- ful invention. Radio fans will be interested to know that Miss Dora Myers, a resident of Harrisburg has finally succeeded in her attempt to eliminate static. The great honor which is due her has only been possible through efforts of a most efficient teacher from whom she has learned the art of radioing. A new signal for attracting attention has been perfected by Miss Tillie Kline on which the Cen- tral High School Patent Bureau has permitted her exclusive use for a period of three years. Two patents have been issued by the oflicial Patent Bureau to Miss Helen Fullcher and Miss Dorothy Yost for the invention of a non-skid, non- breakable typewriter which yields to one's slight- est touch. The machine will adopt the names of these worthy American inventors. Many new inventions are being compounded for the radio, but until the invention of Miss Frances Varner, radio inventors had tried in vain to per- fect a loud speaker that could be heard at a distance of ten miles without discomfort to the listeners. Fair maidens will be interested to hear of Mlles. Mary Brosey's and Evelyn Holtzman's invention of a new.powder conveyance with the peculiar faculty of crying, Here I ami' when mislaid by its owner. Mlles. Brosey's and Holtzman's addition to the realm of super-natural is the result of a study of Mama Dolls. 5 1 I THE HERALD is pleased to announce that in the International Commercial contest held March 25th, Miss Evelyn Smith has replaced Albert Tangora as the world champion typist, and Miss Teletha Shepler was awarded First prize in the comptometer COIIICSI. A World's Hiking Record was established when Misses Elizabeth Johnston, Mary Murphy, and Florence johnson arrived in Los Angeles six months after leaving Harrisburg. All are prominent in the business world. The preliminary contest culminated last evening in the final one to determine Harrisburg's two most popular dancers. The judges unanimously agreed upon Miss Lillian Parker and Miss Sara Smigel as the most graceful of all the participants. The results of the U. S. All-around Athletic Contest are hereby announced: Roller Skating .... Winner, Catherine NVeber Quoits . . ..... .....

The essay will be broadcasted from Miss Minna Conrad's broadcast- ing station this evening at 8:00. After many plans and bids had been submitted, and carefully studied, the Planning Commission has finally chosen the bid presented by the M. Gruver Construction Company for the State Street Memorial Bridge. This has long been recognized as one of Harrisburg's greatest civic needs, and with this efficient company in charge we hope to see the bridge soon materializing. Information Bureau Helen J.
