In oddituon, it gives Ervm Berth We dedicate this book to a veteran of the McKinley faculty Mr. Ervin Barth who had been an untiring worker for the school s welfare from the early days when it was known as Black Rock Vocational School. Hundreds of machinists had learned their trade from him. For years the student body had relied an him for the administration of First Aid in emergencies. Not only had Mr. Barth attended to the physical well-being of the boys, but also to the spirit of McKinley. A staunch supporter of school activities, he had served willingly in many varied and helpful capacities. The staff of the yearbook has been particularly in- debted to Mr. Barth for the innumerable years during which he had served as faculty adviser in financial matters, giving our publication what measure of success it may claim. His sudden death has deprived the school of one of its great men. 3 N-fx-fx-fs-fs-fxfs-fDEDlCATl0N T0 A M iYi? ipf O Presndent McKnnley was a man who gave has name To our school In Buffalo And the story of hrs loyalty and bravery and has fame Abades here among us stull abudes here among us stnll You may talk about your Fosdlcks and your Bennetts and the rest For they are names that tnme wall never dum But guve to us McKnnley he s noblest and the best To the end we ll stand fast to hum O McKinley brave MCKrnley Was a name known to fame In days of yore May ut ever be glornous Tnl the sun shall clumb the heavens no more 4 Mgiw lamfdffufmmciwvz, haf Lmgolwbrf Qffcflhfiaf MMMZZZ, VLMUHZWWIMZEMLF R ET afmma, M, Q ' I O ii 3 4 5 J1.,,,,,,r,.ff.
