Fred Emerson Winebrenner. Orchestra, H. H. S. Play, Track Team ' 15. Fritz says he has no favorite study and we sympathize with him in his difficulty to make a choice. He was one of the mainstays in practice work for the track team last year but unfor- tunately he was unable to participate In the meet on account of a serious ill- ness. Just what is his ultimate object in life is yet rather indefinite. Riva Eravay Best Williams. Riva is a favorite wherever she goe-s. From the way in which she talked some- times you would be led to think that she is a suffragette. She is one of our rural girls who has made many a laugh in class by her quaint remarks. Riva has not decided what work she will take up but — success to her. Claudie Birdella Witham. Debating Club, H H. S. . A. H. S. Play. Birdie is one of the jolliest girls in the class. She is the counterpart of Sunny Jim . To see her flying thro ' the halls sometimes you wouuld think a whirlwind had struck the old H. S. As Flora Bella the waitress she add- ed much to the senior play. She has marked ability along this line and should this be her chosen field, she would make a success there. Zoe Hart. Zoe left H. H. S. and moved to Ft. Wayne. Now she wants to bring her credits back here and graduate in H. 9. Of course we ' re delighted to have her and wish that she could attend school here too, for she is a jolly good com- panion.

Ruth Idene Vernerder. Chorus ' 12, ' 13, ' 14, ' 15. Say, fellows, who is that good look- ing girl over there? Why, that ' s Ruth Vernerder, one ol the fairest lassies of the class. That is what the hoys think of her and we girls think Ruth one of the sweetest, truest, and most likeable companions of our class. She is silent as to her future occupation but what- ever she undertakes we will miss her and hope that she will miss us. Vona Lucille Wasmuth. Vona came to us from Roanoke not very long ago and from the minute we learned to know her, we ' liked her, for she has such a likeable disposition and you just can ' t help it. She is full of fun and also mighty good looking and, well — just one of the best ever. We are proud to have her graduate with ' 16 and sincerely hope that we shall not lose sight of her when she takes up het work as a teacher. Ina Bell Walker. Ina came into our midst bringing with her a voice that is ' ever soft, gentle, and low , and a personality that imme- diately won several girl companions to her side. Ina says that she is going to college and then teach schol. We hope she may realize this. Harold Edward Walknetz. B. B. Team, Track Team ' 15 Red , our Irish friend, has never made much of a noise in our four years of H. H. S. Although he has made tem- porary enemies of nearly everyone at some time, there is no person who docs not consider him a true friend. He has a queer disposition, being somewhat stubborn, and he wants his own way about things, but his determination and perseverance make up for this and he is certain of a bright future. My but he can play basket ball, can ' t he? What would we have done without him? Rachel Wilhite A maiden shrinking and shy. Rachel. She is especially fond of both mathematics and domestic science. Has always made loads of E ' s and it would be a big surprise to us if her name did not appear on the honor roll. She has not fully decided what will be her future occupation but we are sure that she is capable of making most any line of work an immense success.

An old man spoke to a lad who stood Just at the brink of fair manhood. The youth was tall and straight and strong And he whistled a song as he went along. His brain was quick, his eye was bright He waited, anxious for the fight. For he stood at the edge of Life ' s battlefield, Bearing a sword and a maiden shield, Anxious to rush into the fray, For his hopes were high to win the day But the old man saw the youth and sighed As he stood there to watch him ride. He had seen many as full of life Step out upon this field of strife. Ay, he himself had done it too, When he was young, and all seemed true. And thus he spoke to the youthful knight, Madly impatient, eager to fight. Are you well equipped? Is your armor strong? Do you wear next to your heart a song? Have you padded yourself with Truth so You can withstand the darts of the worldly foe? Do you know if your Morals are strapped secure? Your Metal tested? Your Courage sure? How near to the top does your humor lie? Is Wisdom bound near each Reply? Are you sure you feel no jealousy smart? And Hatred does not press your heart? Is your Anger well buckled down? Have you placed a Smile over a Frown? Then on your shield these words engrave To keep you true, to trouble save. These words which have so oft helped me Take now Be as you seem to be . Now ride, and may your fight be long Your efforts bent to right the wrong. And may Success always attend And Glory crown your journey ' s end . — Elma Lininger ' 1 6.
