Nazareth High School A The Comet 1922 Prologue O OUR TEACHERS, schoolmates, and friends of Nazareth High, we the Class of 922, extend our heartiest greetings. We have tried in this third volume of the Comet to present every side of High School life and hope that there may be some- thing in these pages for everyone—for the mature mind as well as for the more light-hearted under-graduate. Our aim has been to present everything in a manner corres- ponding to, and suggestive of. pleasant Nigh School days. In this publication a few. and we trust appreciated changes have been made from those of former years. We do not wish to boast of its excel- lence but leave the verdict to the reader. The Editor, personally, expresses her thanks and appreciation to all who have contributed to this “Memorial of ’22. Nazareth High School 4 The Comet 1922 I EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Loraine K. Gold ASST.

At that time High School opened for the first time with an enrollment of 57. At first only a two-year course was offered to the students. But as time went on and more pupils came, conditions were changed un- til in about ten years the two-year course changed to a three-year course. Even this was not satisfac- tory, so the three-year course soon made room for a first-class four-vcar course. Graduates of this course can enter Lehigh, Lafayette and the Normal Schools without passing any examinations. In 1918 a very valuable addition was made to the curriculum of Nazareth High School when a Commercial Course was included in the course of study. This course is equal to any Business College course and is invaluable to High School students. Any High School would be incomplete without some form of athletics, so the students of Nazareth High organized football, baseball, and basketball teams. But as there was not much room available for football and baseball practice, basketball was soon, and is yet the chief sport indulged in. The past teams have always been fast and the future teams have even better prospects in view. In the spring of 1921 a new form of athletics was introduced. This was track work. At that time we had our first inter-class track meet and everybody enjoyed it. The Nazareth High School Literary Society as a live school organization must by no means be for- gotten. The Society meetings are held every other Friday and are of great benefit to the students. Re- cently the Society started to give public meetings in the Nazareth Y. M. C. A. auditorium. The meet- ings arc appreciated very much by the public. While all these improvements have taken place in the curriculum, the High School building itself has steadily become poorer and now it is condemned to make room for a new building. Very likely the class of '22 will be the last to leave the doors of the old building. We hope that the classes following us will enter the new building and continue the good work begun in old Nazareth High. Nazanth High School The Comet 1922 FREDERICK A. MARGKS. A. B.. Nazareth. Pa..

For four years we have labored side by side. The motely tribe which the fall of 1918 saw assembled for the first time in Nazareth High has long since been welded into a homogeneous body of strength and beauty, united by the bonds of truest friendships, and at peace with itself and its fellow students. How foolish, in the light of our Senior dignity, seem many of the childish episodes of our Freshmen and Sophomore years. Many of the preplexing dif- ficulties and obstacles mastered in our Junior year now create but a passing smile on the lofty Senior's countenance. Our number has been, to our regret, somewhat reduced, our history greatly changed, but our class spirit vastly increased. Ve have been noted from the beginning for having a progressive spirit and long before our minds were strong enough to grasp philosophical and ethical systems, pursuing the Perfectionist’s ideals. Thus, ever changing, has been our course. There have been times of rejoicing and times of lamenting, times of expectation and times of real- ization. The times of rejoicing came when we heard the welcome words “Professor---------will not meet his class this morning.” Times of lamenting when we felt our inability to cope with some of the more difficult problems, and the internal machinciv of the classroom did not work harmoniously. Times of expectation when we waited to receive our report cards, times of realization, when we motored to Stroudsburg when we realized and felt the benefit of those happy hours. Four years of faithful labor have made a mar- velous change in our mode of life. The lower class- men doff their hats in respectful awe as we pass in silent dignity. We feel assured that the strong in- tellectual powers manifested in our members will bring success. We have representatives for all walks of life. With these high aims in life, being endowed with sufficient energy and ambition, we feel that, though placed in the cold and unapprecia- tive world, our influence for good will be felt. Soon all will be over; orations and debates, events of the past; Senior hikes, parties, and picnics never to be again; Commencement, with all its glory, the long desired and hoped for occasion will no more be our goal: with all our close companions left behind, we bid farewell to our Alma Mater, professors, classmates and friends. With sorrow we look back, our memories clinging to the scenes of our school life as the ivy twines around the oak; and yet with joy and long- ing we look forward to the time when we can solve real problems, and decide the more momentous questions of life for ourselves. LORAIXE GOLD. Historian. Nazareth High School Kenneth P. Abel Ken “Ken goes in lor everything— Studies, sports, girls, fellows, fun; Volatile, versatile, voluble. He's the whole show rolled in one. Here we have him—Kenneth Abel, the best all around athlete of the school. He was a Varsity Basket Ball player for three years and his opponents can best describe his athletic ability. Ken's fav- orite study is Cicero, where lie has lie- come renowned because of his romantic way of enlisting the subject. Really thru him. prosaic, dry, and realistic. Ciceyo has been translated into a fairy- land of revelations to his co-workers. Ken loves a good time and we sincerely hope his life will prove to be as good a Loraine K. Gold “Gouhe Whether the prize be a ribbon, a medal, or throne. The victor is she who can go it alone.’ With her ready wit and quick retort, Loraine is one of the shining lights of our class and has shown excellent class spirit. I.orainc’s loquaciousness has brought forth many reprimands and many smiles. This has won for her the title of Biggest Talker and also mem- bership in the Halo Bunch. Loraine has lofty aspirations we know, and whatever they may lie the wishes of the class go with her. Samuel O. Brinker Sam, Tarry, Quay, Matthew, Brisker Metbinkt be should not be ashamed of bis name Samuel, in his eager desire for learn- ing. came all the way from Kesslersyille to join us in our Freshmen year. Now, Sam's peculiar hobby is to secure for himself the best name possible. After adopting several as Tarry and Quay, he finally chose Brinker.1' and Sam we tell you in all sincerity, it is the best name you ever had. or likely to have. Sam has a powerful memory and by means of it was able to astonish our profes- sors. a miraculous thing. Sam. wherever your ambition may lead you. to art. movie world, or psy- chology, t!� e wishes of '22 are with you. Beatrice Y. Itterly “Itterly' “In icboo! she i quiet—acts just so; Outside of school—how can we knowT‘ The fact that Beatrice is quiet in school is shown by her conduct marks. Her name leads all the rest. Beatrice comes from Lafona. several miles from Belfast, so site has quite a journey each day: but that’s nothing if one has so in- teresting a Junior boy to think about. Beatrice is a faithful worker and quite an essential to the class of 22. Her classmates will never forget her for when they were doomed to exams, she was as a white angel bringing hope, but if she could only have brought some of her surplus conduct mark. Her aim is to become a physical directress. Here's luck to you. The Comet iq22 Paul B. Dennis “Dennis “Ab. that I were as great a man As I would have you think I am. Slowly treading, ever onward, comes Dennis, a mighty man of business. Dennis is known near and far as an earn- est newspaper reporter. Ilis ambitions are infinite but N. 11. S. has not suffered thru some of the feats of this daring young man. He never took much inter- est in athletics, probably due to his state of inertia. As a student. Dennis showed great ability and we feel assured he's bound to make good. Mae E. Hellick Hellick A face with gladness overspread Soft smiles by human kindness bred. It would be difficult to find a better natured girl in the class of ’22. To look at her one would think her a veritable “Sphinx. but we know appearance must be deceiving, thru her unceasing chats with Dennis. Hellick is very good in her school work, when she doesn’t for- get (?) to study. She is very fond of reading novels and can always be found reading in her spare moments and in moments not to spare. Her ambition is to become a Kindergarten teacher. Her classmates wish her every success. Nazareth High School Howard E. Gold Reds A Creature not too bright or good For human nature's daily food. Howard is the class orator, a second Demosthenes! As noble Demosthenes clocutcd on the shore, so did Howard in Economics class. The class will little note nor long remember what he said here, hut it can never forget bow he said it. Howard's chief occupation is limited to three tV. tickle, tease, and torture. Doubtless. Howard will spend the larger proportion of his life in raising chickens. Luck to you boy—chicken dinners taste good. Esther F. Kleppingcr Ted Everyone has his faults. Ted needs no introduction on the basket ball floor. Her fame spreads both near and far. And how often has she enlightened a rather dull program with her musical ability. ‘‘Ted has usually taken Iter school life as it came except when it became too distasteful. Her pol- icy was to study enough but not too hard. She does not appear to have a definite ambition, but . why worry? “Every bird will find a nest, sometime. We extend to you our good wishes. Walter A. Jones Jonsib When he's around there's fun galore. Without bint school mould be a bore. Walter is our prize fighter and the wit of the class. He is a student from the rural district and altho his town docs not abound with angels there arc many spirits (?) hovering about. Tire gov- ernment recently captured a still n'every- thing. Altho Jonsie is not superstitious the spirits often move him. Walter we wish you all the success possible. Martha Koch “Patsy This lass so neat, with smiles so sweet Has won our right good will. Since Martha is one of our commer- cial twins, she is not with us very much, only in English class, where she and Lappy use the same book daily. It surely is lucky for some that the supply of English texts is limited. Martha is a jolly girl, always ready for a good time. She plays center on our Varsity team and she certainly does play. No doubt Patsy will be somebody's stenographer some day. May you have a bright and happy future. The Comet 1922 Arthur L. Lapp Lappie One hour a day to study. One hour a day to eat. Tuo hours to think bow tired I am. And twenty hours to sleep. Arthur will always answer to the name of Doughnuts.” His pastry has been as manna to our famished souls, indulged in between classes. Arthur is always ready to help and a smile is his mute greeting. Should Arthur ever adopt Trance as his country, we should tremble for the language. Mon Dicu! What- ever is your future, we bet dollars to doughnuts, it will be a great success. Ruth Miksch Ruthie Cute and little—mostly little. Ruthie belongs to our Commercial department. Ruth joined us in our Sophomore year and she adopted our method quite placidly. Her eyes arc her high lights and we often wonder if she throws those shy glances to anyone in typewriting class—but then there are only two girls. Ruth never says much hut we know she always is thinking. Maybe she is another of those clever, rather heavy thinkers. She is inclined toward the commercial world but one can't always tell for we often see her down town after school waiting for some one. The wishes of ’22 are always with you. Ruth. Nazareth High School Beatrice Ncwhart “Skinny Always beard if not always seen.” Look dose at Skinny so that you don’t misunderstand us. We are proud to say that Skin can always keep her ground, even in debate. She is always busy. Beatrice expects to take up domestic science, but please don’t misunderstand, it is not because she needs it so very soon, but because site wants to teach it. She is already well on her way for she makes excellent candy. Just ask one of us. we ought to know. Always remem- ber our good will while on your journey. Marlyn A. Rader ’’Rade ’' Woman delights me not.” ■‘Rader’’ is really a studious ’’boy . Me seems to delight in studying and can b? found prying into the depths of Chemistry and l-rcnch almost any time of the day. Marlyn has won the posi- tion of center on our Varsity this year aiid held it by jumping real” high. Yet Marlyn positively refuses to be vamped. We don’t know whether it is because ol his close association with himself, or be- cause Belfast folk advise him differently - anyway he did r.ot succumb to the wiles of our girls. However, the girls chime in with the boys of '22 in wish- ing you a successful, healthy, happy- married—life. EKvood Seyfried Sey-frieo We like bis passing fancy well!' Hlwood is a very, very, quiet boy that graduated from the institution of learn- ing at Moorcslown and desired to com- plete his education at Nazareth High School. He has proves! himself to be an earnest student. He stars in Physics and Chemistry, in which the class was indeed grateful for his timely answers in great moments of suspense. Elwood's ambi- tion tends towards engineering, in which we know he can only be successful. You have our best wishes. Hlwood. Svea E. Petterson SWITX ' A dear little Miss, an agreeable smile. A keen sense of butuor, a neat little style. Switz has always been one of the most studious members of our class. She stands well in her studies but her con- duct marks. Oh! Oh! I’m afraid Switz” is a bit too fond of talking and throwing erasers around the room. “Switz” has a verv pleasant disposition and has a smile for everyone, but she keeps the sweetest smile for -----. As far as wc know Switz would like to be a school ntarm”. Whatever her aim in life may he the good wishes of the class go with her. The Comet 1922 Frank M. Steckel Steckel'’ Never trouble trouble. Till trouble troubles you. Steckel believes in taking life easy. He enjoys spending bis leisure time at the “V” or in school arguing with Walter 1. Prank has lots of school spirit but he does not believe in displaying it. He is manager of the Varsity Basket Ball team of ’22 and president of our class. He discharged his duties of office in a praise-worthy manner. We do not know what Prank's ambitions are but into whatever vocation of life he may be called, the class wishes hint great success. Lea Unangst ’’Duckie School. she sang, is toil ami trouble. Honor’s but an empty bubble. Captain of the Girl’s Basket Ball Team. Lea is perhaps our most accom- plished dancer, but she does not confine her education to her feet. The art of blufllng is possessed by Lea alone. Many a teacher pondered over her garrulous answers and we as a class listened in awe struck silence as she revealed the won- ders that have as yet not been ex- pounded by philosophers. Lea desires to become a physical instructor and the Class of '22 extends its best wishes that all her expectations may be realized. Millard Stofflet Milux “Of all those Arts, in which the Wise excel. Nature’s chief Masterpiece is experi- menting well. There appears upon the horizon, a sign of Boyle’s. Parady’s and Charle's suc- cessor starting to climb the ladder of success. Millard is a real genius in Chemistry. Perhaps some day he will find his pot of gold among his chemical compounds. Wc wish success to you, Millard, but beware, for some chemicals are like some women, the farther away the better. Lucy Wunderly Lutz” And she who complies against her will, Is of her own opinion still. I.ucy is the last girl in the class alpha- betically but that does not imply that she is the least. Lucy is a hard worker and her efforts arc always crowned with success. There’s nothing that Lucy especially loathes, save recitations in Chemistry, from which she emerges with her customary speech. I’m all rattled. Lucy’s desire is to study medicine and the class wishes her every success. Warn- ing-Woe to the patient who requests medical attention at 8:40 A. M.. for Lucy seems to possess a certain aversion for that time and always reports at 8:41 Nazareth High School George Weiss “Weissib” “IVbo speaketh when he's spoken to. George is a quiet and modest fellow. While he isn't actually a woman hater, he's too shy to talk about girls. George is popular and is liked by all. lie is enthusiastic in athletics, especially basket ball. His hobby is hair-cutting but we believe George to have higher ideals in mind and means to strive for them. The wish of the class is for your success. I Since we started out together Beneath our colors, red and blue Our class has won its laurels Always learning something new. In athletics or the class room We have ever heard the call Of our motto, true, enduring. That is. Labor conquers all. II Though we’ve had our little troubles. Clouds would always clear away And the sun of cheer and friendship Brought good fellowship in sway While we lost a few in passing— With regrets we saw them fall.— Still our class came thru victorious Heeding e’er our motto's call. The Comet 1922 -1922 in We have built a firm foundation. Looking forward to the years When vc face the world's great problems, Sometimes smiles and sometimes tears. Often then will come back visions Of our Alma Mater dear. And the burdens will be lightened Through our knowledge gathered here. IV Though we leave these halls regretful. To our teachers, sad farewell. We will ne'er forget their memories Or to help their praises swell. Ever fond our recollections Of our happy high school days. May they be to us like sunshine. Shedding light along our ways. E. F. KLEPPIXGER. Nazareth High School The Comet 1922 Junior Class History THE'FIFTY-TWO members of the Freshman Class in 1919. twenty-eight remained till the end of the term. All came back for the Sophomore year, which eighteen completed. These eighteen returned for the Junior year and showed evidences of being able to complete the work but Death called one. and another moved away, reducing our number to sixteen. These very few have done their best to carry out their duties. Our class has supplied half the girl's basketball team and five for the boy’s team, of which one standswerv high in athletics. Two of our classmates play in the High School orchestra, one a violin and the other a cornet. We have had two parties. The first was a Hallowe'en party in our Sophomore Year and the other the annual Junior party which was noted one of the best in a long time. We have been defeated by the Seniors in debate, but only gained ex- perience for the next time. Our future prospects arc very bright, although our number dropped from fifty-two to sixteen. These sixteen show fair signs of finishing their High School Course. MABEL OSWALD. Historian. Nazareth High School Sophomore Class History N THE FIRST of September 1920. a group of boys and girls, num- bering lifty-two, entered Nazareth High. This group, having com- pleted the elementary course of training in the grades of this borough and in the country schools nearby, entered Nazareth High for the purpose of conquering wider fields of knowledge. This as- semblage was known as the class of 1924. The class was divided into two divisions. Thirty students pursuing the Academic course and eighteen the Commercial and General courses. During the month of Scptcmbcra Literary Society was organized in each division. Weekly meetings were held under the supervision of Mr. Wirebach. During the winter the two divisions rendered a program in the High School Auditorium. Each program required considerable preparation and time to make it suitable for presentation before the upper classmen. At the opening of the second semester the class still numbered forty- eight. four having dropped out during the year. During the year the class upheld an honored custom of the school, that of presenting a picture to the art collection of N. H. S. After several meetings the class purchased a picture of Theodore Roosevelt, which was pre- sented to the school at a monthly meeting of the Literary Society. At the opening of school September 6. 1921. only thirty-six Sopho- mores returned to resume their studies, some having moved away, and others having gone to work. Among the Sophomores, there are several pianists, vocalists and violinists. '1'hc class of ’24 held a Hallowe'en party in the High School gym. It was the first class party and was enjoyed by all. It is true that the class of '24 has had many failures and successes during the first two years at High. Hut may the future years be as prosperous as the first two years in dear (Did Nazareth High.

Upper and Lower Town- ships. of Nazareth, etc., wc came. 10 become members of the Class of Nineteen Twenty-Five, and judging from remarks passed about us. no collection of green things that ever entered Nazareth High was quite so green as we. Despite this chromatic defect we managed to .'told very respectable and undisturbed class meetings except for a few Sophomores who wanted to gain some idea of drawing up a constitution from the Freshmen. Fortunately, for the Sophomores. Fate and the Faculty conspired to rob us of the pleasure of dusting the Chapel entrance with thin, limp forms on the morning of the first day of school. However, a hazing was substituted and wc met the enemy a few hours later. By a clean flank movement our opponents managed to give us a cordial greeting much to our displeasure. It is related that Napoleon upon an occasion similar to ours, exclaimed: One battle is lost. but. my brave men. there is time to win another one.” We proved the truth of this state- ment very conclusively, when, a few months later, wc met and overcame the Sophomores in the time-honored contest known as an Inter-class Debate. The part that our class, sixty-eight strong, plays in the life of the school is not small. In the recitation rocm the standard of the class is high : in the various interest of the school our class as a whole is interested. In closing this brief history wc cannot but express a hope that as our short years of school life speed on, wc may learn to love truly and defend nobly the name of Dear. Old Nazareth High. MAE YEISLEY. Historian. Nazareth High School Prophe NUMBER of years after having graduated with the memorable class of '22 of Naza- reth High School in the month of June, a friend and I journeyed to the mystic land of India. It is needless to tell of the numerous adventures and weird experiences which one en- counters while traveling thru a country of this kind. The one experience which was of the most interest to us was a visit to an enchanted castle. Setting out early one morning, we passed thru a beautiful forest, filled with the song of many trop- ical birds. Here we encountered a Hindu, who, much to our surprise, spoke English. You are go- ing to explore the enchanted castle?” asked he, pointing in the direction from which he came. We looked at each other in glad surprise, hastily assuring him that we would be delighted. He then informed us that the castle was form- erly inhabited by elves, and that any one going there at the hour of midnight, desiring any informa- tion should receive it thru the appearance of a fairy who .with a magic wand would cause various visions to appear. We were very enthusiastic about this news and our curiosity was aroused. We therefore decided to visit the enchanted castle. Upon entering the castle we were greeted by a shrivelcd-up old man who told us that any one de- siring to seek the mysterious dwellers of the castle would be obliged to deposit a certain sum of money :y ’22 with him to maintain the castle which was the ar rangcmcnt made, in the will of the good elves. Af- ter paying a small fee, I was told to stand at the foot of the mystic stairway alone, much frightened and hardly knowing what to ask. He waited for the stroke of twelve, with his magic wand in hand. Suddenly the thought struck me that now was the opportunity to ask what had become of the mem- bers of the class of ’22 of Nazareth High School. With the stroke of midnight the old man waved his magic wand. There appeared upon the winding staircase a radiant fairy. “Ask thou thy wish, friend,” spoke the kind fairy. “What are the fortunes of the various members of the class of ’22 of Nazareth High School?” said 1. Suddenly the bright light faded into a dim mist in which appeared the vision of Kenneth Abel, as chairman of the board of directors of the Belfast Slate Co. Kenneth’s success in life had been due tc the knowledge which he received while he visited ai the home of a prominent slate operator of Nazareth while he attended High School. Next out of the mist appeared the cartoonist for the Kesslersville Times, Samuel Brinkcr, his pres- ent name being Quay. This paper had become one of the greatest in the United States, on account of the cartoons which made Samuel world-famou . He faded slowly from sight to make way for the vision of Paul Dennis, now general manager of the Ncwburg Sawdust, Lumber, Ice Coal Co. I re- called that Paul had some experience along these lines while in school, but never thought he would attain a position of this kind. Then appeared Howard Gold, with his beautiful hair now turned to silver gray, chauffer and general helper of a certain doctor at a private hospital in Nazareth. Howard had also been interested in this certain place while in school. As this vision slowly dissolved I saw another face take form. Loraine Gold, at present the Dean and charm- ing English Professor at Bryn Mawr, also assistant manager of the Belfast Slate Co. We all knew Loraine had lofty ambitions while in school, but she had gone far beyond our fondest hopes. Next appeared Mac Hcllick. Although when at school, her future career was undecided, she had finally secured the position of manager of Hellick’s famous factory of home-made candies. Walter Jones, once a famous boxer. Dempsey’s successor, now too old for such strenuous work, had been elected president of the Bath Electric Street Railway Company, since Walter had received all necessary experience for this position when he came to Nazareth High. Following this vision came one of a well-known classmate of mine, Esther Klep- pingcr. She, having been a famous basket-ball star for years, and later studying music abroad, appeared as a teacher at the Nazareth Conservatory of Music. The vision again changed and I saw Martha Koch, who having become too old for any attraction at Nazareth Hall, finally decided to go to Hoboken, where she was employed as private secretary to a millionaire. The Comet 1922 Ruth Miksch, after having been assistant com- mercial teacher at Tatamy School of Business, was now an instructor at Bethlehem Business College. After a moment’s pause came Arthur Lapp, business manager of Renner's Dept. Store at Naza- reth and also proprietor of Lapp's Famous Holcless Doughnut bakery, at the same place. Arthur was a widely experienced worker at Renner’s store while in school, but the latter position was a great sur- prise for his classmates. Beatrice Newhart, after getting rid of all her symptoms” so common while at school, secured the position of teacher of Domestic Science at the famous school at Stockcrtown, and she appeared well contented in her new work. After a few years of the trying work of teaching a country school, Svca Pettcrson had been peace- fully married, and was living at Belfast. Svea, too, had surprised her classmates inasmuch as she taught for a length of time. In the large city of Belfast, I could plainly see students from all parts of the country, centered about an old man, whom I later discovered to be Marlyn Rader, Dean of Belfast School of Foreign Languages. Elwood Scyfricd, being dissatisfied on his farm, had now gone West where he became owner of a large cattle ranch for Chicago markets. Frank Stcckel, once a pool shark of rare ability, was shown as manager of a large number of pool rooms in which business he was very successful. 1 then saw clearly that Frank's many evenings at the Nazareth High School “Y” while in High School, when he might have spent them in studying, were not lost after all. Millard Stofflct, formerly a professor of Physics and Chemistry at Allentown Hi?h School, later a famous lawyer, was then a candidate for mavor of the city of New York. Who should appear next but Lea Unangst! We knew Lea’s desire was to become a physical instruc- tor, but never did we realize her ability to secure a position as that of Dean of the Savage School of Physical Education, and teacher of dancing at New York City. George Weiss, who had recently studied music abroad, now considered one of the greatest French horn players in the United States, was leader of the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra. Last but not least, appeared Lucy Wunderly, who after having mastered Latin and her other studies at Nazareth High School, had become a famous doctor at the JclTcYson Hospital in Phila- delphia. Suddenly the fairy disappeared leaving me alone in the fearful mystic castle to find my own way out, with great difficulty, but never regretting having the trouble because my greatest wish had been gratified. Lamentations Dark are the days of ‘22 When we bid our friends from High adieu, While our Alma Mater’s sinking walls, Still pleasant thoughts to memory calls. Thoughts of the halls where hours we spent, The old English room, now so badly bent. The Chemistry lab. with such a green bunch, Then the Main room where we ate our cold lunch, The room downstairs, our one-time library, Our English room then where we learned of Macaulay. Of Shakespeare, Milton, Keats, Coleridge, too, Still we wish to go back to Nazareth High, wouldn’t you ? B. Y.

We’re the girls who make things stir, Change the school to a chestnut burr. Make it pricky, sticky too, Show the school what we can do. In athletics there we are. Shining thru three silver stars, Shooting goals and making passes. That’s where we beat all the classes. Literary Society holds us dear. We improved it each new year, Teachers welcome us with smiles, Laugh at our endearing wiles. Heaven to earth, we brought to High. Brought it way down from the sky, And what more could we yet do, We fine girls of ’22. Re ye comforted, lower classes. Especially you, my winsome lasses. All the Seniors have a song. Which to Seniors just belong. Each dear class will sing it louder, For each class, itself is prouder, It is Nature’s own true lore. Our teachers sang the song before. Nazareth High School The Comet 1922 5T DRAMATICS =UZ The Class Play N THURSDAY evening, December 8, 1921, tiie Class of 1922 presented Home Tics,” a comedy drama in four acts in the Y. M. C.

One month later. Visitors from the city. Act III. An evening the next week, the party. Act IV. The following January, six months having elapsed. The wedding announcement and Home Sweet Home.” The author did not omit the romance which is usually expected in a play of this kind. The parts were skillfully acted by the follow- ing: Martin Winn, with memories of the past— Frank Steckcl. Leonard Everett, a son of the soil—Marlyn Rader. Harold Vincent, from New York—George Weiss. Josiah Tizard, an umbrella mender—Howard Gold. Ruth Winn. Martin's daughter—Lea Unangst. Aunt Melissa, Martin’s sister—Esther Klep- pinger. Alma Wayne, a friend of Ruth's—Loraine Gold.

Nazareth High School Class Will N BEHALF of our client, we the Class of ’22 of the Nazareth High School, have de- cided to make public our own will before retiring from active life. We do not wish you to anticipate any grief, but we think there will be much less of it when you know that we quite cheer- fully, or at least philosophically heard the decree of the learned doctor, that on June 28th, the class must die. As this is the inevitable lot of all classes, we have made fitting preparations, on this solemn and serious occasion, executing for the consolation of friends the following will: Borough of Nazareth, County of Northampton, State of Pennsylvania, U. S. A. We the class of ’22 of N. H. S. in good faith and sound minds and being, make our testament in the manner that followcth hereafter: All previous wills and testaments are hereby declared null aqd void. To our Respected Faculty we bequeath our surplus knowledge received under their kind and loving administration, and hope they will pass it on to the coming Senior Class. To the Board Of Directors, our heartfelt thanks for the numerous efforts put forth to make our High School career a success. To the Students of old N. II. S., the numerous advantages and opportunities to be derived from the New School Building To-Be. To the Junior Class, we bequeath all our power, dignity, fame and popularity. Make use of these valuable assets and dear Old N. H. S. will flourish. To the “big” Sophomore Class we give the title of “Juniors.” This includes increasing popularity, dignity, inspiration and studiousness. To the Freshmen Class, an increasing knowl- edge of High School manners and customs. To both Basketball Teams the athletic ability of our boys and girls. We, the members of the Class of ’22, feeling that we have been blessed by the aforesaid institu- tion, hope that the following gifts will be thankfully accepted and cherished as valuable assets. 1. To Herman Laudcnbach, Elwood Seyfried’s power of self-control. 2. To Mildred Hcycr, Frank Stcckcl’s sense of humor. 3. To Daniel Rohn, Walter Jones’ pugilistic ability. Our aim is to keep him alive and make him a “real” boy. 4. To Edith Buss, Lorainc Gold’s “pep,” be- cause with this she can at least keep the ball rolling. 5. To Walter Arnold, Lucy Wunderly’s mid- night oil, if used in the wee small hours of the night, he may eventually become a Junior. 6. To Raymond Stover, Howard Gold’s orator- ical ability. We hope to sec “Doc” in possession of great fame some day. 7. To Laura Miller, Lea Unangst’s athletic ability as someone is needed to keep up the standard of the Team of ’22. 8. To Stanley Williamson, George Weiss’s dramatic ability, for ability plus physiognomy makes genius. 9. To Adolph Schnecbcli, Esther Klcppingcr's penmanship ability, a virtue of which lie is sadly in need. 10. To Florence Ittcrly, Marlyn Rader’s lean- ness, Martha Koch’s curls, and Beatrice Ittcrly’s taciturnity. Florence, appreciate our liberality. 11. To Lottie Lapp, Mac IJcllick’s squareness. Use it, Lottie, and become a valuable asset to your class. 12. To Victor Thomas, Svea Petterson’s good memory. It will be of special utility to him in Caesat. 13. To Helen Gall and Elwood Hann, Frank Stcckel’s elderly looks. We should not want them to remain babies when they are to be Juniors. 14. To the Junior Class, Millard Stofllct’s scien- tific ability. We arc sure it is sufficient to supply each member of the class. 15. To Harold Hartzel, Beatrice Newhart’s The Comet 1922 good nature, which, when thoroughly assimilated, may win him some friends. 16. To Helen Beers. Ruth Miksch’s smile, for a smile on her face would be appreciated as much as the sun on a rainy day. 17. To Milliccnt Pohl, Lorainc Gold’s secret of wireless telegraphy communication. It can be oper- ated in corridors, class rooms, and laboratory. 18. To Daniel Rohn, Howard Gold's celluloid collars, and Kenneth Abel’s great collection of ties. Low necks are reserved for the ladies. 19. To Carl Kahler, Samuel Brinker’s hair curlers. 20. To Marguerite Altemose, Lea Unangst’s position in the orchestra. 21. To Matilda Katz, Paul Dennis’s fair com- plexion. Should any other personal property not have been included in the above testament, dispose of it as seems most fitting. In the presence of these witnesses. We, the Class of 1922, have set our seal on this 28th day of June, in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and twenty-two. Attests—Mabel Oswald. Martha Knauss.

A 39 Fouls 104 33 Nazareth High School Literary Society ME LITERARY SOCIETY this year may be considered as one of the best ever known to the High School. Great interest was shown by the student body and some very spirited meetings resulted. The So- ciety meetings were held once every two weeks in the main room of the High School. One of the main features of the Society was the orchestra. Several attempts had been made in prev- ious years to establish a High School orchestra, but the one this year was the .first to succeed. The or- chestra played for the Society meetings and put a spirit into them such as singing or victrola selec- tions could never do. Each Senior was required to deliver an oration, each Junior to write an Original Story, and each Sophomore to deliver a declamation at some meet- ing during the school term. Some very fine ora- tions. stories, and declamations were produced. In addition to this we had some very snappy inter- class debates, some fine select readings, and good musical selections. About once every two months, the Society gave public programs in the Y. M. C. A. auditorium. Two of these were especially good. The one was the Frcshmen-Sophomore program, and the other was the Spelling Bee and Information Class program, 'flic former of these was a program in which only Freshmen and Sophomores took-part. The main parts of the program were a debate .between the two classes, and a short play by each class. The debate was won by the Freshmen,. 'I'he second program was something new for the town people. Included in the Society Program were a spelling bee and a general information contest. Prizes were given to the winners of both contests. 'I'he Program was a decided success. Probably the reason why so much interest was shown in the Society by the students, was because the meetings were not held so often as to become monotonous. This is one good plan for future so- cieties to follow. Student’s Council EC A USE of the success and the accom- plishments of the Student’s Council dur- ing the past two years, it was thought ad- visable to re-organize a Student’s Council. Each class wa$ to be represented by two members chosen from the Class, one rep- resentative to be the Class President. The Senior Class was represented by President Frank Steckel and Kenneth Abel. The Junior Class was represented by President Herman Laudcnbach and Adolph Schneebeli. The Sophomores by President Norman Free- man and Grace Laub, the latter acting Secretary of the organization. President Charles Shimcr and Thomas De- reamer, were the representatives from the Freshman Class. Mr. Martin acted as the Faculty representative. The Student's Council meets on the first Mon- day of each month, always endeavoring to accom- plish and establish student government as much as possible, trying to put more responsibilities on the Students by discussing how to better High School life, or suggesting some means of securing more in- terest among the student body. This organization afforded the means of bring- ing the students views, ideas, and suggestions of a better High School life in direct contact with those of the faculty. Each member of the Council felt The Comet 1922 perfectly free to offer any suggestions or opinions, which might be of value to the student body. It was this organization that led the students of Nazareth High to a better and more prosperous year. Let us all hope that in the future years of Naza- reth High the Student's Council may be ever as efficient and beneficial as it was during the past year. 1922 Association of N. H. S. HE CLASS of 1922 of Nazareth High School, believing that they could better carry on the work of their class, if they were more closely organized, have organ- ized themselves into an association called the 1922 Association of Nazareth High School, and for better government have adopted a constitution and by-laws. This is the first organization of this kind grad- uating from N. H. S. The meetings of the organization arc to be held once a year; special meetings may be called when- ever necessary by the President. The officers of the Association arc: President, Svca Pcttcrson; Vice-President, Marlyn Rader; Secretary. Loraine Gold; Assistant Secretary. Mac Ilcllick; Treasurer, Frank Stcckel. Nazareth High School to 1 k The Comet 1922 The Orchestra JNCE THE YEAR 1915. our School has had no orchestra, although an attempt was made last year to reorganize one. Ap- parently they did not succeed last year for no orchestra played for us. When the first attempt was made, music was needed . so the Literary Society decided to furnish music. Secondly players were needed, but the Lit- erary Society failed to produce enough of the right kind of players with the right spirit. Then the school term closed. This year things were different. Mr. C. Stocker, of the class of 1915. again dug into the music ques- tion and his labor was not fruitless. With new music came new players, with a newer and more enthusiastic spirit. Under Mr. Stocker's guidance and care the orchestra was formed at an early time, and it also showed wonderful results. As soon as we could say, “An orchestra has been formed, we could a|so say “Our orchestra played in Literary Society.” The players appeared a little bashful at first and they hesitated to play often, evidently they were afraid of exhausting themselves. Now they have outgrown that, and play at ease, as if they had played in an orchestra for years. Our orchestra has been the greatest improve- ment to our Literary Society this year. The school was very proud when it was able to conduct public meetings with all High School talent. Heretofore an outside orchestra had been engaged to play at public meetings; that time has now passed. If ever you have a chance to hear those melodious violins, the easy-going cornets, or the merry ringing bells, don't miss the opportunity. Perhaps you will have a chance to hear the orchestra play next year, be- cause we won’t let it go out of existence. It is one of our best assets and it will not be left when the new school building is completed. The regular orchestra comprised of ten members from the different classes shows a remarkable High School spirit. The members and the instruments they play are: Harold Hartzel Beatrice Ittcrly—First violin. John Fraunfelder—Second violin. Lea Unangst—Piano. Lambert Broad Mr. C. Stocker—First comet. Lester Renner—Second cornet. Stanley Wiliamson—Clarionet. Paul Abel—Drum and bells. Norman Freeman—Cello. Nazareth High School The Comet 1922 The Chronicle HE NAZARETH High School Chronicle which had not hccn published since June, 1915, again found its way to students on December 19, 1921. The paper was form- erly published monthly and contained di- gested material of a month’s happenings. This time the staff of editors decided to have it published every two weeks so that the students would be more quickly aware of the hap- penings about the school. The news was much con- densed. The paper consisted of four pages, free from all advertisements. This was the suggestion of the staff because the members thought that a paper of such size could be supported without ad- vertising matter. The Chronicle found its way to the students on Monday afternoon of the publishing week. Not only did it contain notes of he High School but the last page was devoted to Eighth Grade work. The pur- pose of this was to give the pupils in the grammar school an idea of high school work, and it would also bring them into close affiliation with the High School. The Chronicle always contained the late news of the school activities and of class work. To keep the paper from becoming monotonous, a joke and personal column was always kept up to date. Members from each class comprised the staff of editors. Lucy Wundcrly, ’22, was Editor - in - Chief. Herman Laudenbach, ’23. Business-Manager. The other members were Esther Klcppingcr, ’22, Paul Dennis, '22, Marguerite Altcmose. '23. Raymond Stover, '24, Florence Ittcrly, ’24, Kathryn Wcrk- heiser, ’25, Thomas DcRcamcr. ’25, Grace Edclman, '25, and Gladys Batt, ’25.

The decorations were artistically arranged and ______ displayed line taste. The splendid games and other diversions occupied the greater part of the evening’s program. Many clowns and other daintily or comically dressed people duly represented the class. On Friday evening. February tenth, a joyous time was spent when the members of the Staff and Mr. Wircbach were delightfully entertained at din- ner. Miss Lorainc Gold, the Editor, entertained them at her home. After dinner had been served, the Staff discussed the immediate business about the Comet. On Friday evening. March seventeenth, the greatest social event of the year took place when the Seniors and the members of the Faculty were entertained by the Juniors. The gym was decorated in honor of Washington and Lincoln. At eight o’clock many Seniors and some of the Faculty strolled in. Soon the games began. A tricky game concern- ing a pot of peas was won by Marguerite Altemose. Miss Altemose received a box of candy. Other games were played until eleven o'clock. The choos- ing of partners was both interesting and tangled. The partners were chosen by means of strings at- tached to the second story banister and terminated in the basement. At each place at the table was either a question or an answer which was numbered. The questions were asked and the answers were given by the per- sons with the corresponding numbers. All who were there were greatly pleased with the party. On the same date. March seventeenth, the only class sleighing party was held. The Class of 1924 took a sleigh ride to Wind Gap Park. The evening was fine and the stars were shining brightly. Mrs. Keller, the manager of the pavilion at the park, served lunch. The party danced and had other amusements. The class was chaperoned by Mr. Luther Clcwell and Miss Isabel Buss. On Wednesday evening, May third, the Class of 1922 and the Faculty surprised Beatrice Itterly at her home at Lafona. Machines furnished by vari- ous members of the class took the group to her home. The evening was spent in playing games and dancing. A delicious and satisfying lunch was served. The party left at an early hour after spend- ing a most cnoyable evening. This was the only time that the entire class was entertained by one of its members. At the Staff meeting held on Wednesday even- ing. May twenty-fourth. Millard Stofflet, the Busi- ness Manager, entertained the members of the Staff in honor of his birthday. Delightful refreshments were served after the business session. The Hike TCE UPON a time, not so long ago (Octo- ber 8, 1921. to be exact), a group of about fifty students and four members of the Faculty of N. H. S. gathered at the Circle, on a dull, gray Saturday morning. The object of this gathering was to go on the customary annual hike to Saylor's Lake, via Sullivan’s trail. As the eight o’clock car slowly started up Main Street flying figures could be seen scurrying from all corners of Nazareth. Luckily or unluckily, one of the modern cars was used. Singin’, cheerin’, and sixty-two other methods of making noise proved that Nazareth’s younger generation were wide awake. After reaching Wind Gap there was a general The Comet 1922 scramble to leave the car. Probably the person that said, “climb tho' the way be rugged.” traveled from Wind Gap to the Lake. After about half the distance over the trail was traversed a slight but ever increasing downpour of rain made travel less agreeable, but water could not dampen our enthusiasm. The party reached the lake at about eleven o'clock and suddenly mysterious boxes appeared everywhere. On such a cold rainy day the lake docs not appear as inviting as usual, but the merrymak- ers gathered under Barthold's pavilion where all sorts of refreshments could be secured. In the afternon dancing and games furnished an outlet to the pent-up energies of the students and faculty, while during the brief moments of sun- shine the more adventurous were out canoeing on the lake. Late in the afternoon preparations were made for going home. Most of the adventurers returned to Wind Gap by auto. A few determined to walk back. By seven o’clock the' party was again in Nazareth, undoubtedly tired, but glad to have been able to visit the lake. Did they enjoy the trip? Well. I guess, and we can all offer three cheers for the individual who started the custom of hiking to the Lake. Nazareth High School Senior Educational Tour X WEDNESDAY morning, June 21. our Class with Mr. C. G. Stocker as chaperon and with some of our friends, left town at seven o’clock for our trip. The group consisted of twenty-eight people including the manager, Mr. Weaver. After we had seen the Pennsylvania Railroad Station at which wc arrived, we took the sight-seeing automobile for a tour of Upper New York City. The principal feature of this trip was the stop at Grant's tomb. It is one of the best kept tombs of our great men. The atmosphere of the place was quiet and inspiring. The return along Riverside Drive was refreshing after the noise of the city. 'I he river side was dotted with beautiful and massive homes and lawns which replaced the high, closely-built buildings of the business sections. An important part of the trip was spent on the boat from New York to Poston. It was quite a novelty to be on a boat for some of us. Strange things often happen to amateur sea-goers. When we got to our state rooms wc did not feel quite at home. Imagine how we felt when wc found that wc were rocked to sleep. The early riser saw the sun come up and the rays dance on the waves. The scenery along Narragansett Bay was charming. Everyone was up in time for breakfast for each one remembered that he was on a boat. We landed at Providence and took a train for Boston. The party arrived at the Quincy House before noon. In the afternoon a fifty-mole auto tour was taken around Lexington and Concord. The scenes before us took us back to the Revolutionary days. A stop was made at the Clark House and at the North Bridge. The scenery as well as the historical points of interest were pleasing. On Friday morning wc visited other historical places. Wc saw parks, monuments, cemeteries, old churches, buildings and homes, especially the homes of poets and literary people. The party stopped at Bunker Hill Monument and at Copp’s Hill Burying Ground. In the afternoon, on the way back to New York, a stop was made at Providence. The capital buildings were visited at this city. The large, cool buildings arc built of marble on whose walls hang some of the famous pictures of Revolutionary times. Other relics were also exhibited. The party spent the night on the boat. On Saturday morning wre again came back to the familiar sights of New York harbor. Arriving at New York we were taken to the steamer to take a trip up the Hudson to West Point. The trip up the Hudson holds many interesting sights. Many college and summer homes situated high on the rocks arc passed. The beautiful green Palisades offer a magnificent decoration to the river side. The party alighted at Highland Falls and proceeded to climb the steep ascent to the grounds of the school. Many interesting buildings and other sights were seen at West Point. The trip back to New York at dusk completed our tour. Wc arrived in town at 9:30 o'clock Sat.ird.ay evening.

But. classmates, as we onward went, Was it not clear to all. How true we spake where ’er we said. That Labor conquered all ? Majestic words! well they have formed. The Seniors panoply. And aided us to attack the fort Of odious, odorous Chemistry. Since Labor vincit omnia, Let every Senior say, With loyal heart and purpose true That he has won his way. The Comet 1922 Tis said that labor makes a man. We labored, great and small. For Comrades this, and only this Alone has conquered all. And if to fame you would aspire. Remember that is won By working hard with sweated brow. Till work and fame are one. And Labor, then, will win for us The better world on high; For by it we may truly live And by it we may die. So when this life on earth is done, With joy we’ll hear the call. Old Labor shall have fought the fight And Labor conquered all.

Reverberation is when a word is made again into a verb. The equator is an menagerie lion running around the earth. A parable is a heavenly story with no earthly meaning. Parasites are the inhabitants of Paris. An oxygen has eight sides. A polygon is a dead parrot. Equestian is one who asks questions. Eucharist is one who plays euchre. Franchise—French eves. Idolater is a very idle person. Mendacious—that which can be mended. Plagiarist is one who writes plays. Parasite is a small umbrella. Republican is a sinner often named in the liiblc. Circle is a round straight line with a hole in the middle. Howard’s Lament I sat me down and thought profound. This maxim wise I drew, Tis easier far to like a girl Than make a girl like you.” “To Ye, O Halo Bunch” Ye brave fellows, everyone Ye have had your days of fun Tearing, ripping up the aisle In your own acquired style. Mr. Martin placed you there, So that you the fun might share, Seven cute boys and just one girl, Seven bright rubies, just one pearl. Among your members everyone, That’s where all the fun's begun, From your girl and from your boys, There has- risen all the noise. There is Jonesic, Steckel too, What on earth won't those boys do? George and Arthur make a pair, Mr. Martin’s frown can’t scare. Ken and Howard broke their desks, Tho' no teachers made arrests, Millix used his eagle eye. So no Prof, his tricks could spy. Scarcely teacher left the room. Taking with him all the gloom. Then up Goldie guards the door And the classroom starts to roar. “Halo Bunch” will live for aye.

Nazareth High School as The Comet 1922 Ruffled Net and Gingham Prize Story 192 i—L. K. Qold OR THE THIRD time Louise Jackson, swinging in the hammock under • the apple tree, heard her mother call. The only indication that she heard was the slight frown that marred her pretty face ——' for a fleeting second after each call. With one slender foot upon the ground, she pushed the hammock back and forth as she read. Occasionally, a stir of air brought down the sweet scent of the blossoms and she stopped reading to raise her eves to the green and white canopy above her. Mother Jackson appeared in the doorway. She had been making jelly and marmalade. Her face was flushed and her hair, damp with perspiration, lay matted against her forehead. The fruit had stained her hands and on her otherwise neat dress tl’.ere showed unsightly spots of red where the juice had splashed. Oh. here you arc.” said Mother Jackson, drop- ping down on a box nearby. My, but it’s warm! I suppose the heat put you to sleep. I have been calling you for the last half hour.” Finished the berries? indifferently asked Louise, viewing her mother's soiled appearance with disgust. “I’ve just sealed the last jar—twenty-two jars in all. It is very delicious to have in winter but it is a sore trial to make it in this hot weather. I thought maybe you would do up the dishes, Louise. The table is stacked full, all the dinner dishes, be- sides those I made with the berries.” O mother—cr! What's the matter? You surely don't mind helping me that much! I must go over to Mrs. Black's to pick currants. She telephoned that I could have all I wanted if I picked them. You would not want to do that and get all sun-burned. So do the dishes like a sensible girl.” Mother. I wont. You ought not to ask me to do such work. It's always something. Can't you understand, mother? How can I ever become a famous writer if I have to do such common things? Nazareth High School “Helpfulness is not such a common thing,” re- marked her mother. “What are you going to do then, this afternoon?” “I am going to call on Amy Marlowe. This is one of her hooks I am reading. Mother, she is simply wonderful! And is it not great to think that she has taken the old Hartzell place and will be within a mile from us all summer?” “If you wait until I get over this rush, I'll call with you,” suggested Mrs. Jackson. “But I don't suppose she would want everybody calling on her,” protested Louise. “I wrote to her that my ambition was to become a writer, too. and she said that I might come to see her. So that's why I’ve got on my ruffled net. It was too early to start, so I thought I would read in one of her books so as to get into the spirit for my call upon such a great woman.” “Your new gingham would have been good enough for a walk over the country road: then you could help me as soon as you get back without changing.” Well, mother, I would consider a famous writer above gingham. She will appreciate my net, you never did care for it.” “No. I like you in other things better. You will probably want to be starting now, and since you pass Mrs. Black’s I’ll walk that far with you.” Louise looked at her mother’s stained dress and then at her own dainty net. made with such infinite care by those toil-soiled hands, and wished she need not walk down the road with her mother. There was no excuse to be thought of, so they set out together. The “honk, honk” on the road behind them caused Mrs. Jackson to look back. “Who do you suppose that is?” she asked as she saw an old Ford coupe with a bulk of black and white polka-dot calico at the wheel. “Somebody who wants to make herself ridicu- lous riding in that baby-rig,” said Louise scornfully, as she stubbed the toe of one of her white pumps. “Botheration! Why couldn't you let me watch where I was going?” she scolded, stooping to smooth the scuffed leather. Mrs. Jackson did not even hear her daughter's ungracious remark. “I believe it is,” she exclaimed joyfully. It actually is!” When Louise looked up from her damaged shoe it was to behold her mother and the polka-dot lady exchanging tender words of recognition and greet- ing. “Why should her mother make such an ado with such an ordinary woman?” thought Louise despairingly and when Mrs. Jackson presented her to Mrs. Smith she acknowledged the introduction none too graciously. “And where are you bound for. Mary? asked Mrs. Smith. “I would say jump in but where would you jump to?” “I am going to stop right down here at Mrs. Black’s to pick currants. Hers arc spoiling on the bushes and so she has offered me as many as I care to pick.” “Well, I have a busy afternoon ahead of me, too, and my job’s a worse one than yours,” said Mrs. Smith. Now remember, Mary, you are coming to spend a whole day with me. You arc to be there for lunch and for dinner.” “I think she is horrid,” burst out Louise as the Ford rattled on. “So common and stupid and silly!” “Louise be careful in the use of your adjectives. She is—well some day you will be wiser.” Angrily Louise parted from her mother and walked on to the Hartzell place. It was only when she pulled the china-knobbed door-bell that her former anticipation of meeting a kindred spirit re- turned to her. Though the bell clanged harshly three times, there was no response to its summons. Keenly dis- appointed, she turned away and had nearly reached the gate when she heard a hallooing. She followed the sound until it brought her to the side of the house, and there, in the middle of a potato patch, she discovered the polka-dot lady. “Well, if it isn’t Mary’s daughter!” exclaimed Mrs. Smith. :‘I would like to take both of your hands in mine in welcome, but mine are not a pretty sight with old socks for gloves. You see, honey, I'm planting potatoes. John, that is Mr. Smith, is worrying his head off for fear the potatoes will not be planted, so I am taking a hand at it.” “There is some mistake,” said Louise stiffly. “I understood that Amy Marlowe had taken this place for the summer, and it was she I came to see.” “No, it is not a mistake. In plain everyday con- The Comet 1922 versation I am Ellen Smith, but to my reading pub- lic I am Amy Marlowe.” You!’ gasped Louise, “Amy Marlowe and planting potatoes! You arc joking, of course.” No, my dear, I am not joking,” replied Mrs. Smith, and Louise looking into her sweetly grave face, knew that she spoke seriously. My husband is cut off from the work he is best fitted to do, but so long as he feels there is something at which he can be of use, he is a happy man. He has worked hard out here, so hard that 1 would not have this crop a failure even if I have to sit in this patch all summer to keep the potato bugs from ban- queting. Now let us go to the house.” But your potatoes,” hesitated Louise. If I were dressed for it I could help, but this dress--” I have it,” interrupted Mrs. Smith. Slip on one of my daughter’s ginghams, and I believe you can wear a pair of her shoes. Maybe we will have a better visit in the potato patch than in the parlor. Late in the afternoon. Louise burst into her mother’s kitchen. I sec I am in time for the dishes,” she cried, and 1 want you to forgive me for being so horrid lately.” “So a wiser daughter has come back to me,” said Mrs. Jackson gently. “Wiser! I have been a perfect idiot. Why didn't you tell me what you have done? Mrs. Smith told me that you were wonderful at college and that if I have a speck of talent, I inherited it from you. I guess if I ain to have any ideas worth while, you will be a good person to associate with, and if there is anything in the fame line ahead for me, my ging- ham and not my ruffled net wjlj lead me to it.” Nazareth High School Jokes English Teacher: What did Caesar say when Brutus stabbed him?” Laudcnbach, '23: Ouch!” Mr. Martin, in Economics class: Therefore it isn’t good to be a shifter.” Lorainc. ’22.
