It seems that no one can resist her winning ways and her fascina- ting smiles, especially Staun- ton boys. The fact alone that she has held so many otllces tells us she is one of the most popular and capable girls in high school. Even with all these otliees to iill, she is never too busy to bc accommodating. At all the games and school entertainments Estelle is al- ways therc to cheer and assist. Her work on the Taj stall' is always in on time and is cor- rectly done. The high school will not soon forget Estelle nor will our class. Estelle expects to go to S. T. C. next year, and we hope she will make as e11- viable a place for herself there as she has here. vi - 'gun fy ' -2 .. 1 s FRED FUNKHOUSER When I take the humor of a thing, I am like the tailor's needle-I go through.

He played a game of football for three years, was captain ot' last year's team, and received the gold football for the most outstanding play- er on the team in 1930. Fred is good in everything, not ex- cepting his classes, but he has a had habit of going up Franklin Street every night. NVell, Funk, old H. H. S. will miss you next year, and we all wish you lots ol' luck at Ohio University. Q... H..-. Q xwitg zgsssgfsg tkwgqaljigg 1Y'. :i, .

Secretary Farewell Song CTO the tune of The End of a Perfect Dayj lVlADAL1NE NEWBILL ' When we come to the end of our high school life, And go from its shelter tonight, There's a pang of regret that comes over us For the joys fading from our sight. For we'll love l-l. l-I. S. to the end of our lives, Where e'er we may scatter now, And we'll cherish its name while the old school survives, And support it fore'er, we vow. We'll remember the cheers for the teams that we yelled, As our boys played a valiant game, We'll recall how the songs of the Glee Club swelled, As we sang and acquired much fame. We'll not forget exams and tests That we studied so hard to pass, Or the fun that we got out of pleasant jests- We'll remember them all to the last. So, farewell, dear old school, how we hate to go From the happy life we have had, But we swear solemnly that we love you so That we'll stick by thee good and bad. We must part from our alma mater tonight, And our 'feelings we can't express, So we say once again with all our might, Farewell, old H. I-l. S.

Occupation ten years from now: A globe trotter. Activities: Football, '30 Basketball, '30 French Club, '30 Editor of Athletics Dept. of Taj, '30 In order that this write-up give full credit to the above gentleman, we posed as a census-taker and went to his house to see what he had to say for hi1nselI'. He answered only a few questions before he recognized us and then, on ae- eount ol' his bashfulness, he would not say another word. I-le admitted that his future cook would be a professor's daughter. He agreed witl1 us that Dayton, as a verb, is more interesting than as a noun. He also informed us that he has not decided which college to honor with his pre- sence. NVe might also add that he is a crack baseball player and we're sure that wherever he goes to college, he will be a star. Good luck to you, Junior. We know that with your in- quisitive niind, and questions to the point or oil' the point- you are bound to get at the root of things.

Maria has spent her entire school Life in Harrisonburg and she is one who always seems to get a lot out of life. She has been secretary of our class both in our junior and and senior years. Maria has se1'ved well, and we shall not forget her efforts in helping to make our junior-senior re- ception a success last year. As circulation-inanager of the Taj this, term she has helped great- ly in making that magazine a Iinaneial success. But her time is not all spent on school work.
