Opal Mae Custard. This unassuming young maiden lias surely done her duty in H. S. Every morning she slips quietly into her seat , her arms full of books. One of the few girls in the class whose hair is wavy which causes her to be envied. Opal has distinguished herself by never get- tine into trouble- and if she keeps this record when she takes up a business course she will always retain the sin- cere respect of those around her. ■ Marion Edgar Deeds. Chorus ' 15 Class Play ' 16. We never knew Deedsie was so good looking until he appeared before us on the stage in his part as Hicks. Of course he was made up some, hence the change. He made a mighty fine Hicks and played his part to perfec- tion. Can create a disturbance in class now and then if he feels in the right mood. Nevertheless Marion is a jolly good fellow and we are sorry that we can ' t see more of him. He intends to take up Dramatic Art. but he surely would make a sucess selling Braino- if he would but apply his brains ( ?) to that. Artista Beryl Diffendorfer. A pretty curly haired girl whom we are not very well acquainted with be- cause of the fact that her home is in Zanesville and she spends her week- ends there. She always seems mighty friendly and has a winning smile for everyone. Her ambition is to teach music and we wish her a happy future and assure her. that we hate to lose her. Erma Lereitta Ditzler. H. H. S. A. A. Sunshine Society. Sec. Senior Social Committee H. S. Play. Plenty of laughter and sunny dispo- sition mixed with a will and desire to do things, make a fine combination, and that ' s just the kind of a combination there is in Erma. She made a mighty pretty chorus girl in the class play. She thinks she would like to teach but I doubt if she will ever get still enough. There is a rumor afloat that she is called Squirm at home. She has a passion for learning verses and can al- ways be heard quoting poetry that fits any occasion that arises. Virginia Mae Dowter. Girls ' Glee Club. Chorus. Girls ' Gym. H. S. Play. Did you ever hear a girl around school talking like a runaway freight train? Well that ' s Virgie . For a long time she came to school from the country but now she lives in town. Virginia always succeeds in having a good time wherever she is and also helping those around her to do the same. She has a wonderful determin- ation. Just now, she has determined to teach school in the future, and where there ' s a will there ' s a way.

Asa Walter Kreigbaum. B. E Team ' 16. Financial Bus- iness Manager-Modulus. Asa, has always been the star of bis class, getting- the best grades without ttiu use of ponies . He is a born student anyone would tell you that. Many times a situation trying alike to teachers ana pupils has arisen when along came -Asa and the difficulty would vanish be- fore his ready answer. As a manager of finance he has made our annual a suc- cess in this direction. In basketball this season as a guard, be made a reputation for sticking to his man Shaler Edwinfield Lahr. Debating Society. Track Team ' 15 Goat as we all know him first came to us as a bashful country boy. but now has become so sophiscated to city life that he is often mistaken for a gentle- man from New York or Chicago. ' Shaler has always been a hard working, pa- tient good humored individual who doesn t shine so much in school How- ever when it comes to tilling the soil he is right there. As a teacher his trails ol character will help him to a great ex- tent. Lenore Lois Louise Leonard I.enore, our little Irish girl, demure coy, and gentle voiced. During her ca- reer in H. H. S. Lenore ' s highest ambi- tion has been to make the teacher un- derstand her recitations. To know her is to love her and it will certainly leave a. yawning gap when we have to lose her at the end of the year. Ever has she been a true friend to all. As a kindergarten teacher she will make the little tots love her as much as we ha e all learned to. Elma Anna Rose Lininger. Debating Club, H. S. Play Editor-in-Chief Acropolis. And still the wonder grew how one small head could carry all she knew We all like to think of her as Suzie of the class play where she disDlayed excel- lent talent. Elma has a pass ' ion for writ- ing poetry and many a time has she donated poems to us for various uses In the few weeks that she has edited out class paper she has shown that she could make it a distinct success. Elma is a girl of many talents and not the least of these is her ability to give readings numerous or tragic. Mildred Marie Marker. Modulus Staff. Acropolis Staff Senior Social Com H. H. S. A. A. Mildred is one of the jolliest and most companionable girls in the class. Her work has been of a high grade thru- out the course. The Seniors all de- clare that ' they never tiad a better time than they did at her home when she entertained them at one of our parties It is a delight to hear and watch Mil- dred play her traps. She declares she wishes to become a designer of clothes and from the success she has always had with her own, we know that his occupation will bring her more than the desired ends.

Myrle May McNabb. That black eyed girl who slips around so quietly and has such a long list of friends is Myrle McNabb. One of our best liked school mates. She is especial- ly attractive when wearing red, and has distinguished herself by never getting into trouble. If you hear anyone saying Oh yes don ' t you know you may make a safe bet that Myrle is near. As a teacher her characteristic dignity and quietness will aid much toward a: suc- cessful career. Clara Ruth Miller. Chorus ' 13, 14. Clara is silent as to her future occu- pation — she may be intending to become a movie actress for all we know. If you hear anybody say Oh girls, just look at my hair you may rest assured that Clara is hovering near a big look- ing glass gazing at her reflection in a distracted sort of way. Clara is a good talker and a frequenter of the movies. Everybody likes Clara. You just can ' t help it, she is so good natured and when we bid good bye to her it will be with heavy hearts. Edith Mae Minton. Edith is a quiet sort of a girl and one of the nicest in school With her sweet temper and smiling face she has won a warm spot in the hearts of us all. She is not so strong on talking but she thinks a lot, and has added much as a good student to the school. Her ten- dency to combine work and play ought to make her successful when she enters a business college as she has made the fact known that she wishes to continue her work there. Ray Vincent Murray. Debating Club. Acropolis Staff. Preach is one of the most humorous characters in the class. He also haa done very much work to make our class paper a success. As business manager during the entire term he has worked and figured every way imaginable to make both ends meet. Is the possessoi of the silliest grin which he showed ad- mirably in his part of On The Cam- pus where he impersonated Bastian Briggs the Dig. He intends to take up farming in Mississippi, so success To you Ray when you get out in the wide wide world. Hazel Evelyne Otis. Girls Glee Club. Chorus. Hazel is an all-round girl and a fine student. Her English recitations alone would give her a fine position in out- class. She don ' t study all the time, no indeed. Why, she can conquer a lesson in a few minutes and then enjoy her- self. She expects to be a teacher and we are quite sure she will do full credit to the pprofession.
