HAAR MISS MARY SANDERS MISS ELIZABETH STOPPER Professor N. H. Haar Gettysburg College B. S. Our worthy Principal has had a wide and varied experience in the profession of teaching, which has made him capable of fulfilling the many duties that have confronted him during his two years at Middleburg High School. As members of the Senior Class, we wish to acknowledge the ef- forts he has put forth in our behalf. We hope our associations have been as pleasant to Prof. Haar as they have been to us. Miss Mary Sanders Bucknell University. A. B. Although this is Miss Sanders first year of teaching, she has in all ways proved herself capable of the posi- tion she holds. She teaches Lan- guages, for which she deserves much credit and praise from the student body. Especially from the Seniors, because she has always been willing to sacrifice anything to help in any worthy cause. The Senior Class will never for- get her for what she has done for them. Miss Elizabeth Stopper Curtis Institute of Music American Institute of Applied Music New York University Miss Stopper is our Music Direc- tress being supervisor of the Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs and Orchestra. She has proved her ability as a Directress by her splendid work in behalf of M. H. S. She has won the hearty co-operation of every mem- ber of the Glee Clubs and Orchestra. C1 El El El HH. IPI.

He has worked hard for the school and has achieved success which can easily be seen by the line records his teams have made. ln the classroom he has proved himself able and efficient, and has won the respect of the Senior Class, for which the members will not soon forget him. His untir- ing interests have won our highest praise. Mr. Clayton Kratzer Lebanon Valley College A. B. Although this is Mr. Kratzer's first year in the Middleburg High School, he, for his untiring efforts cannot be held in too high esteem.

By-W01'Cl---AW, YOU d0n'f 535' S0 By-word---l hope you don't feel hurt Activities Assistant Business Nlanager Echo: Class Treasurerg Feature Editor Mon- itor. Nance is the barberis son, this being the cause of his shining black hair. He is called the class sheikf' We hear Nance is quite a radio expert. This is the reason he may often be seen climbing around on the roofs of barns and houses. Ever since his entrance into the Freshman class we have noted that he has taken great interest in the study of electricity. He is always up to some mischievous prank. His chief delight is getting ads for the Echo, but he also has another delight, which is visiting Mc- Clure. He is our worthy class treasurer. Whenever the class is in need of funds, Nance produces the cash. Clarence intends to follow the trade of his forefathers. Persevere Nance! The fates are with you. g....... . Activities Glee Clubg Spanish Club. Oh cut it outl Stop it! Wo1i't you ever grow up? etc., etc. When you hear these yells coming from some protesting maiden we know that Phineas is up to some of his pranks, for as an all round tease. he reigns supreme in M. H. S. Phineas hails from lVlcClure where he completed the two-year course and came to Middleburg in his junior year. When not busy with one of his pranks he can be seen in his seat reading some book or magazine. He is an accomplished tenor singer and many are the moonlight nights that he serenades some pretty maiden until the neighbors start the linale with vary- ing musical tones and words not entire- ly brotherly. The class of l927 feels sure that he will reach the pinnacle of musical fame. Ei ------- - --la Hickle BRIGHT Bowsasox Centerville, Pe. By-weid--.He-Bey This young gentleman upon whose countenance you are now gazing is Bright, who hails from Centerville. This lad joined us in our Sophomore year. He is often seen wearing a serious look, especially when called upon to rccitc. He appears to be in deep thought, thus being able to deceive the teacher. This serious appearance is very deceiving, for when not in the act of some mischief, he is planning for future deeds. A ln the fall of the year Hickle spends a large part of his spare time hunting. He is a very successful nim- rodg not caring to miss a few days in school to indulge in this, his favorite sport. We do not know what the future holds in store for him, but we wish him success in any occupationhe may choose. UGLIZZN GLEN CLARK McClure, Pa. By-word---Say, Professor Activities Business manager of High School Echo: Clee Club: Basketball: Track: Spanish Clubg Dramatics: Debating Team. This young man comes from Mc- Clure. He is known to all as Guzzi But behold! he is not so bad at that, at least he is quite popular among some of the members of the fair sex. He is notccl for his many flirtations. But clon't tell Mildred fto whom he is very truej about it. This class is fortunate in having this wonderful orator. when his voice peals forth in the halls of fame, Daniel Webster will soon be forgotten and Clark will reign supreme. flnut up your umbrellas., ln all sincerity, in whatever path he treads, we hope he will never forget the class of '27. fauna: 1 1 unsung 'vi em X- Ep Dei-shic' WILLARD DERSHAIVI Centerville, Pa. By-word---Come on. Activities Track. Dershie comes from afar off. l-le lives two miles beyond civilization. However, when he came to us as ei raw product. we immediately saw that he possessed the mind of a second Webster Cif he cares to make use of i:.J A As for this member of the Loyal Order of Men, he seems to be one exception of the order.--at least he ap- pears to be. He has lost all interest in the fair sex. This is quite unusual, and we fear that probably he has been dis- appointed at some time or other. Nev- ertheless he will sooner or later find the sweet young thing, who will cause his heart to thump violently. We have not as yet learned what profession he intends to follow. But whatever it may be, his intellect and his character will bring him success. Ted THEODORE FELKER Beaver Springs, Pa. By-word---The Dickens Activities Editor-in-Chief of THE. MONITOR: Glee Club: Baseballg Track: Dramaticsg Debating Team. Gaze upon our handsome Ted g who is indeed a worthy member of the class of '27. He has displayed his splendid ability as the Editor-in-Chief of the year book. Ted burned a great deal of midnight oil at this task and deserves praise. Ted sings tenor in the Glee Club and we feel certain that he will be a second Caruso. He has had. several love affairs and he really has broken some hearts. But we are glad to say, Lucky the dame that captures this young gentleman. Ted intends to Finish his school ca- reer in Boston Tech., where he is going to study to be an engineer. Ted you will always have the good will of the class of '27. E-Iunnn E E n u I l n I I un n Russ RUSSEL GILL Troxelville, Pa. By-word---Gee Whiz. Activities Baseballg Track Team: Debating Team. This husky young chap you are now looking at ranks among the most studious of our class. He has earned a place in the hearts of all by his witty remarks and breezy jokes. Al- though quite sober at times as if thinking what the future holds in store, in the two years he has been with us he has won many firm friends. His fav- orite pastimes are baseball and enter- taining the ladies. His delight is to spend the hours of the night studying Latin 'P 'P ? Russ has a great head and we feel sure that he will have great success in life in whatever he may choose to do. Besides wishing him the best of life we hope that he will always remember his friends of Old lVl. l'l. S. Bill WILLIAM S. HERMANN By-word---l know how it is. Activities Captain of Baseball: Basketball: Glee Clubg Monitor Staff: Vice President ol Athletic Association. Dramatics. Behold the smiling countenance of our dashing young Romeo. Bill me- anders about fas long as his father pays for the gas, in his black and yellow umicrobef' commonly known as the Lincoln Light Four. Bill is a true sportsman and lends his aid for the success of his Alma Mater in almost every sport. His in- fluence ovcr those of the female species is decidedly marked. What special lure or charm he uses remains a mys- tery to us, but nevertheless he leaves behind him a string of broken hearts. William has expressed a desire to be- come a lawyer. We cannot imagine him in this role for never do We find him in a frame of mind which would do justice to an attorney unless some- thing is the matter with his car. l-lere's luck to you lVlac.

This is indeed a splendid policy, which we hope that she will always follow. Stick to it kid. lva is a second soprano singer in the Clee Club. She really sings like a bird, only pronounces her words more plainly. Just wait, this little girl will make us open our eyes some day. She in- tends to go to normal school and be self-supporting so that when Nance gets old and feeble she will be able to help him financially. fsafety first.J Klinger will surely be a splendid school teacher, and we hope that her path will contain no rocks, but will he smooth and easy to travel.

Activities Gleelclubg Captain of Basketball Team: Dramaticsg Spanish Cluhg Sec. of Athletic Associationg Cheer Leader: Monitor Staff. Here we have our old fashioned vamp who uses very modern methods. She has thus far not wrecked very many heartsg but at least three of our young men have fallen for her charms Uuniors not exceptedj. Caesar can also hold her own in the classroom, where she shines as our intellectual light. But she is also a skilled violinist and pianist: playing the piano in Chapel. If you hear someone laugh a minute or more after a joke is given, rest as- sured that nothing is wrong, but that Caesar has just seen the joke. She believes the one whci laughs last laughs best. The class wishes Caesar success El El Mickey GRACE OLDT Paxtonville, Pa. By-word---For Pete's Sake Activities Advertising Manager Monitor: Glee Club: Orchestra: French Clubg Dra- matics. This girl resides in Paxtonville. Each morning she rises early in order to board the upaxtonville Limited fFlag station., One would not think that Paxton- ville could produce as romantic a per- son as she. She is continually dream- ing of her future and usually talking of her love affairs. Grace plays the saxophone very skillfully. She has shown her musical ahility since her entrance into M. H. S. of which the class of '27 is proud. She has expressed her desire to attend Shippensburg State Normal, after which she will follow the profession of teaching. We are confident that success is hers. ltsarnll i SAMUEL oscoon A lvllelellebeeg, Pe. By-weea--.see of e cub. Activities Basketball: Basehallg Tleele. Greet this young man from Coon- hunter, who is a skilled trapper, spe- cializing in catching skunks. The first few days of the trapping season gave all sufficient proof of that statement. Sam would rather read detective and mystery stories than study his lessons. This member of the class is an efficient forward on the basketball team. Sam can usually Hip the ball into the basket for a goal when neces- sary. V ln whatever work in life Sam may undertake the class of '27 wishes him the best of success u EJ El ' E l Reichy RAY REICI-IENBACH Middleburg, Pa. By-word---Let's Go Gang. Activities Captain of Basketball Teamg Base- ballg Track, Glee Club: President of Athletic Association: Monitor Staff. Who else could this grim looking gentleman be except Ray Reichenbach famed far and wide for his ability as a boxer? Besides the manly art, which seems to attract Reichy especially, he has in his great heart freally he has one, a love for other sports. He may be seen performing in baseball, track, basketball and even in ping pong at which he excels. Nor does his talent all run in one direction. He would make a line debater because in the class room whether right or wrong he always has an argument. Ray is a wonderful musician. He plays soul-stirring selections which every one would enjoy if he could only get them to listen. No it is not a violin. lt is a base horn. May you realize your ambitions whatever they may be. Esther ESTHER RENNINGER Middleburg. Pa. By-word---So l do. Activities - Glee Club. Now Esther steps into view, with her gleaming brown eyes, which proves to us that she is somewhat a Happer, and does her part in vamping the op- posite sex. Esther takes quite an interest in Chemistry this year. Of course we all know why. W She is a second soprano in our Girls' Glee Club, and we are certain that if her voice is properly cultivated she will some day be able to do chorus work, well. However Esthefs intention is to take up the vocation of a trained nurse. ln this field there are great opportuni- ties and plenty of room for those who are ambitious. So Esther with her many giggles, ought to be successful. EI........ El ..l-lib.. . ELIZABETH SANKEY Middleburg, Pe. By-word---Don't Kid Yourself. Activities President of Spanish Club: Dramat- ics. Here is our typical blonde. She hails from Red Hill. When we hear a chug-chug, and see a black speck rapidly appearing in the distance we know it is Lib in the Chevrolet. We are sure that Lib will some day be a blushing bride. She is full of ambition and pep which she dis- plays to us in all activities. Her blue eyes have broken many hearts and we call her the love bandit. l..ib:' is our farmer girl of the class. There- fore she is our only fresh air girl. She has expressed her desire to be- come a nurse, and we know that some day she will achieve the success for which she has striven so faithfully. Bob ROBERT SANKEY Middleburg. Pe. By-word---Darnit., Activities Baseball. Lo and behold! lf it isn't Bobl This is our country boy, but does he look it? flVlore like Broadway., Bob actually does travel a bit though: goes to Kreamer quite frequently. As the old Chevie rolls along he keeps time with the rattling of the car by singing Oh Katerina. 'l-hat's alright Bob you are only young once. Robert has been the handy man of our class. He has always been ready to help one in distress. For the past four years he has run his bus from school to the home of any one who became ill. One week he made four trips, playing Knight-errant to the weak and faint. K We know that some day you will prove a success as a scientific farmer, and feel certain that you will be a worthy student at State College. E t I u u n I I lu u u IIIIIIIQ Snookie GRACE SNOOK Middleburg, Pa. By-word---Confound it. - Activities Orchestra: Basketballg Dramatics. Gaze upon this quiet brunette, who is the female mathematician of the class of '27. The science of geo- metric figures is her favorite subject. She is our varsity center in basketball. Very few are the opponents who can out play her. Grace does not show any interest in the opposite sex, but we feel certain that appearances are deceptive in this case. Crace's ambition is to go to a school of domestic science.---Look out boys. The best way to reach a man is through his stomach. Here's success to you, in all the paths of life. uhm.. JAMES G.

He is always leader in mischievous pranks, but is always jimmy-on-the-spot at re- citing. some times his blue eyes seem to be gazing into space. Is he dream- ing? Well, we think so. Keep on dreaming Jim. Most dreams come true. We have recently learned that his chief ambition is to become a bank- er. The class of '27 wishes him the best of luck. He is bound to succeed. un nu I I l llll NIUE I 4 4 4 1 1 w 4 I i l i 4 l ri V Mickey MICHAEL VVEADER McClure, Pa. By-word---Me-Too! Activities Spanish Clubg Debating Team. Every morning there steps from the train a fairfaced lad who travels six- teen miles in order to receive a four year high school education. He is considered by most as a sheik and a jolly good sport. Mickey measures up to this standard perfectly, but the most admirable quality of all is his desire for a complete education. For if one would visit his home in the ev- ening they would hnd i'Micl:ey deep in his books. He has planned to specialize in Chemistry and History and according to the satisfactory work he has been doing we feel sure that he will succeed. We hope that he will never forget his classmates of Old M. H. S. when he has carved his way to fame and fortune. We can never for- get him. : n :E Butch CLYDE WACNER McClure, Pa. By-word---Petey-Petey. Activities Glee Clubg Manager of Baseball Teamg Spanish Club: Dramatics. Here is a fun-loving and mischief- making lad who means no harm but you know surplus energy must be ex- pended in some manner. Butch hails from McClure, and whenever he hails you can hear him coming. His wonderful bass voice may be heard booming through the corridors at most any time. lts value has been noticed and rewarded many times by rows and rows of vacant seats. Petey, so he thinks now, will prob- ably join a circus or carnival because of the extensive training in running a merry-go-round which he has received :while taking charge of his father's carrousel. May you come out of all your escapades unharmed and Finally settle down to a more quiet life. E u lux I u null I lu In B Erma ERMA JANE WINEY Middleburg, Pa. By-word---For Goshens Sake Activities Orchestrag Clee Club: Dramaticsg Spanish Club. Erma has them all cutclassed when it comes to capturing men, and reciting monologues. All she has to do is look at some young man from under her eyelashes. nod her head and he is at Erma's service. You should hear her when she blows her large French horn, at which she is very skilled. but be ready to run. for the sound would easily drown out the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra. Take the biggest heart you can con- ceive, add a keen sense of duty and conscientiousness, insert a good sized dash of wit and pleasing disposition and you have the personality of Erma. uhm.. JAMES KLINGER McClure, Pa. By-werd---Ha, I-la, Haw Activities Baseballg Spanish Club. There is our ujimf' He is our happy boy, laughing and playing pranks continually. Canit you see mischief in his eyes? He is alright though, at least he will do. Jim is a noted cornetist. He really uses this as a way to dispose of some surplus energy. A splendid way though. Klinger is recognized as 8 collector of vanity cases. The reason for this is unknown, but we are under the im- pression that it is his means of coming in contact with the females. This young lad intends to be a traveling salesman. Beware James, keep in the straight .and narrow way. lt is dangerous business. Neverthe- less, the class of '27 trusts you to do your best. You will land on one of the high rungs of the ladder of suc- cess. lil M le ..Ev., EVELYN WETZEL Middleburg, Pa. By-word---Hot Deg. Activities Clee Club: Dramaticsg Secretary of Spanish Club: Monitor Staff. Here's Ev , the life and mischief of the class, who is always ready to play some prank on her classmates. She does not seem to take life serious- ly, but smiles and mal-:es the best of all difficulties. ln fact you can give her motto as: Whei1 love and duty clash, Let duty go to smash. Her chief occupations are candy making, laughing and talking, some- times listening and entertaining THE student from Beckley College. She wishes to be a stenographer, and will probably soon fill this position for a handsome, young business man. Betty ELIZABETH WETZEL Middleburg, Pa. By-word---Oh Heckl Activities Spanish Club: Dramatics: Class Sec- retary: Echo Staff: Monitor Staff: Presi- dent of Girls' Glee Club. Here's the old-fashioned girl with her long wavy hair neatly combed and put up ffor this girl has really grown upj. She takes a very active part in all school activities, is jolly, pleasure lov- ing, and will find fun in most any task. She believes in Never trouble trouble until trouble troubles you. She takes her studies very seriously and thinks it a great disgrace to go to class room unprepared. Betty has a voice like a lark, and may often be heard singing, Then l'll Be Happy. Among sweets, O'Henry is her favorite. We hope to sometime see Betty either on the concert stage or keeping house for an electrical engineer. E1 l-lennie HENRY WINGARD Middleburg, Pa. By-word---The Deuce Activities President of Class of '27: Orchestra: Basketball: Track: Dramaticsg Assistant Ed- itor of Monitor: President of Boys' Glee Club: Cheer Leader. Look! Hennie is a lad whom every- one knows by his walk. He has already captured his sweet Sheba, and there seems to be no chance for anyone else to take a peep at her. Henry is our worthy class president. He has carried his work very nobly in his four years in this office, although he has faced many obstacles. He is very much wrapped up in music. He has frequently shown his ability as a violinist and vocalist. Hennie sings in our Clee Club. We don't l-:now whether- he sings horrible or awful, but which ever it is, he is a rousing success. This young man intends to follow the profession of engineering. Hennie has the quality of stick-to-it-iveness, and he is bound to succeed.

Our instructors during this term were, Professor Points, F. F. Smith and W. W. Bruner. ln April of this term the bond issue for the erection of a new High School building was passed, and all were looking forward to entering the better and more up-to-date building. The following fall we gladly turned to our Alma Mater again. The summer did not take the school spirit from most members of the class, so all returned with happy smiling faces. We were very glad to see that a number of new members were to join the class. Thus our progress was noted by all. All welcomed Miss Weeter, a new member of the faculty. ln Janus ary of this term we moved to the new building. ln our Junior year quite a number of new to-be-members from McClure and Beaver Springs joined our class. This term marked many changes. The High School shared the new build- ing with the Junior High, which was composed of the local Seventh and Eighth grades. The faculty consisted of, Prof. N. H. Haar, Miss Mary Weeter, Miss Aida Long, W. Earl Thomas, W. W. Bruner and W. E. Reifsnyder. Our school was placed on a level with other first class High Schools. During this year our class took active part in all activities of the school. The class re-assembled on September. 7, 1926 to enjoy and profit by our remaining year as a part of the M. H. S. Alma Mater. former High School building to. begin the preparation . ' . . . ' We again faced some changes, such as the Seventh grade returning to the grade building. The instructors for this year were, Professor N. H. Haar, Miss Mary Sanders, W. W. Bruner, C. C. Kratzer, Carl E.. Slay- baugh and Miss Elizabeth Stopper, the music directress. We proved ourselves superior to our fellow school-mates by winning the class track meet. We have always done our share of supporting any school movement. Therefore as we finish our High School career and begin real life, it is evident that the class of l 92 7 will meet with success. G. K. S.

Suddenly before my eyes a little man materialized. l-le seemed to hop right our of the flames and was clad in the strangest of clothes. immediately I thought of Rip Van Winkle's Adventure. Somewhat startled by his strange and sudden appearance my tongue refused to work for a few minutes. After a time, somewhat reassured by his kindly ex- pression, I inquired who he was and what was his mission. ln a squeaky voice he spoke thus:- I am a messenger from the goddess of the future. Because she has deemed you worthy of a reward l am permitted to answer, for you, one question con- cerning events to come. What shall it be? Without a second thought I blurted out:- Tell me, O wise one, what does the future holdin store for the class of nineteen hundred and twenty-seven? He remained standing there beside the fender for a few minutes then answered quietly. l see all clearly. lva Mae Klingler is teac.hing in a large kintergarten school in the now medium sized city of Middleburg.

E El Svvninr 0112155 15112111 Our Class President is Henry Wingard Who is worthy of lots of praise. A student whom we are proud of Because of his actions and ways.

We went right in, we showed our pep, Which displayed to them a sportsman's rep Little by little we climbed to the top, We have gone this far, and shall not stop. We are bound to receive some further learning, So the midnight lights are always burning. The ones from whom we receive our power, Are Bruner, Sanders, Kratzer, Haar. Miss Stopper instructs us in our singing, While Prof. Slaybaugh athletics is bringing. Nine new pupils were added this term, Which helps to make our class more firm. Although four pupils were forced to leave, We shall not forget them as they believe. We feel that now is a fitting time, To bring to a close our little rhyme.

E El Shminr Qllanns illintnrg N the Autumn of l924 a marvelous class consistingiof twenty-seven members assembled at Middleburg High '-l.g,l ,:.,, 1 ll School, bent on further pursuing their education in this Aww , institution. With competent teachers we soon made our upper classmen see that in wit, humor, athletics, and intel- lectual standards we were inferior to none. ln January of this year we were enabled to bid the old school building farewell and entered our newly erected building which proved to be very much to our liking. We ended the term with the expectation of seeing all of the familiar faces back the following year. ln the next year l925, the class again assembled but under the name of Sophomores. Although we were saddened by the loss of some of our former classmates, never the less our outlook for the year was somewhat brightened by the entrance of a number of new faces. The big social event of the year was a jolly sleighing party which was held at the home of Ada Duck at Troxelville. , During this time many of our number were practicing for the basketball season. ln these games our class distinguished itself by the surprising ability of some of its members. tWe ended our Sophomore year in June with the expectation of becoming Juniors the next term. When the class re-assembled on September 7, l926 we were sorry to see that four of our former faculty were not pres- ent: but we all joined in welcoming the new members. This year when class roll was again called four of our number, one a basketball star, were missing. However a number of students from towns surrounding Middleburg joined our class, increasing our number to thirty-five, forming the largest class in the school. This total was diminished when three persons discontinued their school work. The social eventsiof '26 consisted of a Hallow'een party and a sleighing party, the latter held at the home of Earl Dreese at Mt. Pleasant Mills. The class is now working and struggling to attain still greater success for themselves, and lVl. H. S., so that we may look back upon our High School years as the happiest and most beneficial of our entire lives. With the expectation of hearing still greater things of the class of '28 in the future, we bid you Au Revoir. L.. F. S. '28 ...yi . . dig... IH E1 3 El EI liluninr 0112155 igrnphrrg NE evening, about eleven o'clock, while sitting before the l lvl fire-place, studying for final examinations in college the mn .NYM next day, I turned my gaze toward the hearth fire, and my thoughts to the good old days of IVI. I-I. S.. Being tired, my eyelids slowly closed and I was soon in the happy land of dreams. I became a fairy-like creature of the spirit world, floating through the air at a terrific speed. Suddenly my course was changed and I began to fall down, down, so great a distance that it seemed to be thousands of miles. All of a sudden I felt myself crashing into something, which caused me to halt abruptly. I felt myself being carried along for some distance and then placed into a bed. As I slowly opened my eyes I saw I was in a hospital. The door to the room opened and two nurses came tip- toeing up to me, whom I immediately recognized to be former classmates, Barbara Grayhill and Inez Boyer, who were now graduates of johns Hopkins I-Iospital, Maryland. Having recog- nized me at once, we began talking of our school days. While talking a doctor came into the room, who was another classmate, Earl Dreese, and who had become head doctor of the hospital. He entered our conversation and we all drifted back into the good old times we had in Middleburg High. We began talk- ing about our classmates and I was told that William Kleinbauer had become proprietor of the Bellevue-Stratford at Philadelphia. I then asked the girls whatever became of Marian Wagner and Emma Wetzel and they informed me that they were running a beauty parlor in New York City. They also told me that the last they heard of Betty Charles she was touring the United States with the Swarthmore Chautauqua. The next day I left the hospital and boarded the train for New York City. Seeing the conductor hastily coming down the aisle, I hurried to find a seat, and when he approached me I saw him to be a schoolmate, Ray Breon. As the train was going through Philadelphia I looked out of the window and saw a large electric sign, Ziegfield's Follies, f'Grace Saylor to Star. When I reached New York I went to see an opera and immediately joined in the applause for the actress whom I recognized to be Irma Boyer, the leading character. It was fine to see her in the place she had longed to be. The next act was a musical program by one -of New York's largest orchestras. As the orchestra proceeded to Hnd its place on the stage, I saw to my amazement a familiar face, which happened to be Ralph Schrey, the director. The first violinist also looked familiar and although not being very close, I soon saw it was none other than George Wagenseller, himself. These two I felt sure were working out their highest ambitions. After the grand opera, I went to meet Ralph and George, and while conversing for a little time I learned that James Winey had become a great contractor in Chicago, while Clyde I'Ieiser was teaching mathematics in a large college out west. I then went to a large hotel for dinner. On my arrival l l was met by a waitress, who was no other than Sue Ernest. I inquired of her if she knew the whereabouts of any of her class- mates. She informed me that Mary Bingaman was chief opera- tor of the Bell Telephone Co., in San Francisco, also that Scott- anna Bobb and Alice Bingaman were partners in a large ladies' shop in Miami. While we were talking two women entered and seated themselves at the table across from us. They were of athletic type and wore sport clothes. They looked familiar to me, yet l could not place them. As they were occupied in conversation l could watch them unnoticed. Since I had seen so many of my classmates by accident, l thought perhaps these might prove to be some. Sure enough. The one turned her head in my direction and it was Kit Graybill, who was now a prominent physical culture directress of New York, while the other was Fay McAfee, who was writing many articles for the famous magazine, Physical Culture. The girls invited me to go with them. Fay was writing an article and wished to go to the library. When we reached the Public Library, we saw a rather stout and well dressed woman departing with some books under her arm. Suddenly she turned and came towards us. As she came nearer to us, she began to speak, and we found it was Mary Gift, who was the head librar- ian and who had won fame by her book entitled, Evolution, l spent the following night with Mary, telling her of my experience of meeting so many of our classmates, and she seemed to know where all the rest of our gang were located. Ada Harner was teaching a rural school, Carson Kepler was farm agent of Lancaster County, Ada Duck and Samuel Snook were traveling with a large orchestra, Sam as trombonist and Ada as pianist, Coffee Hummel had founded a school of aesthetic danc- ing in connection with Bucknell University and had as his partner Lorena Stetler, late of The Follies, Elmer McAfee, started in the real estate business in a large western city, and last but not least Thelma Erb and Bruce Folk were married never leaving Middleburg, but settling down in a beautiful home all their own, and were considered among the best of families of that community. Just then l heard someone say, Wake up, kid. Realizing that l was awake l jumped up and cried, l just had the funniest dreamg listen while I tell it to you.

The class was composed of eight girls and fourteen boys. At noon time of the same day the boys received their initiation bravely and there was a feeling in our hearts to duplicate the same thing to our followers. After we received our third degree we were called Freshies. Many pleasant hours we spent in the High School under that name and perhaps the happiest of our School life. In our Freshman year we were taught the rudiments of knowledge by the following teachers:- Miss Mary E. Weeter, Miss Alda Long, Professor N. H. Haar, Mr. W. W. Bruner, Mr. Earl Thomas and Mr. W. E. Reifsnyder. On Tuesday morning September 8, .J926 we again came together to complete our second year of leafriiing. This time we were given the name of Sophomore, When we entered the building and the pupils were enrolled we learned to our great surprise that four more of our members had left us and our number was now reduced to fifteen. Although we had a small class we were bound to do our best and we were successful. ln our second year we were respected by all classes, both upper and lower. This year the faculty was composed of:-Miss Mary Sanders, Miss Elizabeth Stopper, Prof. N. H. Haar, Mr. Carl E. Slaybaugh, Mr. W. W. Bruner and Mr. Clayton Kratzer. ln our Sophomore year we established a system of paying a class fee which should be used for social purposes. We were the leaders in the system and therefore all the classes talked much about it. By doing this and other things we proved to be rivals to all the classes. Middleburg High is proud of the work that was done by the class of '29 in its two years of study and we shall not falter in our two remaining years.

Clarence Moyer, known as Tom, Surely makes his studies hum. He is very good in algebra, And makes a hundred every day. Miss Barbra Jones, known as Windy ls always seen with a bag of candy. She yells for a milk shake when entering the door Leaving the restaurant she wishes for more. Verna Reichenbach who plays basketball, Often met with many a fall. She never fails to recite in class, You see she's'a lass of the Sophomore class. Glen McAfee known as bright eyes, ls seen in the summer swatting flies. He kills a hundred every day, And gets a penny for his pay. Next on the line comes Claire Who has brown eyes and black hair. She is liked by the members of the class, And most boys think she is some lass. Florence Mutschler lives on apple butter street, And is often known to talk in her sleep. She is often late as you can see, And so Kratzer counts her an absentee Mugs Stetler, a tiny mite, Studies hard from morning 'till night. But when it comes to eating, he is there, And is always sure of his own share. Buzzy sells Odell's medicine with all his might, He can even be heard when out of sight. He sits upon a tall oak tree, Mourning for the movie star, Rudy. Alvin works in the store Saturday night, He waits on the people with all his might. He joined the Glee Club this year, And sings bass as you can easily hear. El El Joe Bruner plays foreward on the floor, Ancl talks Latin words by the score. She has so much to do at school, But finds time to obey the Golden Rule. Mabel Heimbach is no block, When she comes to talk: O, I forgot. Though she is young and fair, You never can say she isn't there. Fat Walters is a barber by trade, Often cuts people when giving a shave. He is seen with Kitty every night, And they never know what it is to iight. Last comes Wilmer too solemn to play, Because he will be a preacher some clay. He is a very quiet and bashful boy, And giving English talks is his greatest joy. X a p Josephine Bruner '2 Ruth Ritter '29 E1 El ,. Egan-nu nnnv nun:-ng -I s.-f X . X x X X 4 w E1 .....

Though handicapped by the graduation of four of last year's varsity men, enough candidates answered the call to make the fight for positions on the team very interesting. Coach Slaybaugh built one of the best quintets that ever represented the school. AI- though defeated a number of times the Blue and Cold lived up to the reputation of clean, hard playing in every contest. Praise came to them from all sides: not the high sounding praise of a winner, but the greater, truer tribute, due to one who in a losing fight, fought to the finish and had the courage to accept defeat gracefully.

Efrark sinh Iliivlh H5221 MIDDLEBURG TRACKMEN TROUNCE SELINSGROVE. HIGH Middleburg High School defeated Selinsgrove High School in the Annual County Track Meet on Saturday, May 7, 54 to 38 points, clinching the championship of class A. Freeburg took third place with seven points. Although the meet was held on the home grounds of Selinsgrove they were unable to cope with the strong opposition offered by the county seat boys. Middleburg outclassed the home team in both track and field, winning eight of the eleven firsts. There is a keen rivalry between the two schools in every form of competition. Middleburg has proven her superiority, however, over the cohorts of Coach Steffin in the year i927 by winning three basketball games out of four starts, two baseball games out of two starts, and by defeating them in inter-schoolastic debating. It was therefore a great blow to Selinsgrove to be compelled to bow again in submission to her smaller neighbor. Thompson, the local captain, romped to three firsts on the track, winning the hundred yard dash, the two hundred and twenty yard dash and the one hundred and twenty yard low hurdles. ln the final event, the running broad jump, he also captured live points for his team. The big surprise of the day occurred when Wagenseller of Middleburg defeated Croce of Selinsgrove in the pole vault, clearing nine feet, nine inches with ease. Diffenderfer of Middleburg displayed fine form in the twelve pound shot put, heaving the iron ball a distance of thirty- five feet, for a first. Osgood, our half miler, proved to be an iron man finishing twenty yards ahead of his nearest competitor. ' ln the mile relay which always -demonstrates the true quality of a track team, Reichenbach, Clark, Osgood and Felker preformed brilliantly to garner a first.

H. S. last year when a silver loving cup was awarded ,L .,,,, Q if to the champion team of Snyder County. The schools img , of the county were divided into two classes, each con- testing for honors. The winners of each class held a final debate to decide the champion team. Middleburg was eliminated in a series of three debates, Kreamer being the winner of class B. ln the final contest held at Selinsgrove, between Kreamer and Selinsgrove, Selinsgrove emerged victorious. The team of M. H. S. is to be commended on their skill shown as debaters. Even though they lost, they must be given credit for the splendid effort they maintained throughout.

It has always been a publication of the Senior Class. This volume to some is only a book, to certain others a record of the High School, but to a smaller group-the associ- ation ancl proud achievements while in school. It is with great pleasure that we, the Staff are able to circulate this book. We have tried to picture as vividly as possible the different phases of school life while in our Alma Mater. However We have tried to make it a work of art. Each- class has in turn triecl to make the volume better: each has succeeded to a greater or lesser extent. We hope that it merits with your satisfaction. LJ EI Uhr iirhn ' THE. STAFF Editor-ln-Chief .... .......... , - ........ James Thompson Associate Editor .. Business Manager ......

LL-J.: Elizabeth Diffenclerfer James Thompson Ralph Schrey Editor-in-Chief Associate Editor In the year nineteen hundred twenty-five the first edition of a new publication was ushered into the portals of Middleburg High School, under the direction of Miss Mary Weeter and Mr. Frederick Schrey, who was the first editor. The Echo it was named and truly lived up to its name. Each month the happen- ings concerning our Alma Mater were displayed, before the student body and the general public in print and it has never failed to appear at the accustomed time, It has only been through hard work on the part of the Staff and complete co-operation on the part of the students and merchants that this publication has been able to exist. 'Our earnest hope is that the spirit may continue to thrive and that the paper may prosper under the future pilots. FW El E1 Srhnnl vlln Wash 'em out Ray team! Wash 'em out Ray team!

Russel Gill had often expressed himself as being disgusted with motion pictures in general. His particular grievance was the number of sloppy love scenes as he called them. One ev- ening Bill enticed him into a show. During the course of the picture came one of those particular affectionate breakfast scenes, in which the loving couple indulge in a kiss before, during, and after every course. Suddenly Bill leaned over to Russel and inquired elatedly, What kind of breakfast food do you call that, huh? That's mush, was the disgusted answer. Geln Clark-- Only once, was I glad to be clown and out. Ted Felker- l-Iow's that? Glen- After my first trip in an aeroplane.
