First in laughter, first in fun, first in the hearts of her classmates. In spite of being born on the thirteenth Kas 1or Jack if you will1 is very popular in New Holland High. A fine disposition, a good nature and winning smile brand her as an all-around pal. This pretty curly-headed miss has taken part in many assembly programs and entertainments during her four years in the New Holland school. Basketball games find her a jolly good fan-and can she cheer. Her chief pastimes are running errands to the American Store for groceries and taking daily noon rides in a Ford. She hasn't decided which she likes best, the Ford or the Chevy. Here's to your happiness, Kas, RICHARD DONALD GEIST NOVEMBER 26, 1918 NEW HOLLAND, PA.

Rit. a native of New Holland, spent three years of his young life in Intercourse after which he returned and finished his school career in New Holland High School. Being interested in sports Rit has been star pitcher of the High school baseball team for the past four years, steer- ing the team to many victories. Intramural basketball on the Senior beef team was his pastime during the winter. Horse- back riding and back-seat driving are also favorite sports of our freckle-faced friend. Rit has always been rather bashful among the fair sex but we find that Mabel is breaking him of the habit. Good luck in whatever you undertake, Rit.

Pauline, better known as Polly has been with us ever since Iirst grade and her favorite expression, you don't say, can be heard anywhere around school. Polly is known as the artist of the class and is always willing to put the final touches to the picture any art student is working on. These touches are often half the picture. We thank you, Polly. Recently her attitude about letter writing has changed: could the reason be a red-headed hero from Harrisburg. Her smiles have won her a place in the hearts of all her classmates and also patrons of the Cut Rate Store. We hope that she will go far in that business, or gain great heights in the realm of art.

Sometimes beliefs don't come true. Here is Benny, who was born on St. Valentine's Day, and sometimes we think he doesn't have any heart, but he does. It's just that all his time is spent in studying. Benny came to us in the ninth grade, and has walked away with all honors other years, and has been on every first honor group this year. He has not decided what he would like to do after gradu- ation, but we think he will take up farming, because he has helped on his father's farm during the past several summers, and has some very good ideas about that occupation.

Almost eighteen years ago our friend the stork left a tiny, curly-headed baby in Osterburg, Pa. At the age of three months the baby was brought to New Holland by her parents, and here was christened Eloise Lucille. She was always interested in music, and as a youngster directed her kid brother and chulns in singing. Squeezer hopes some day to have an orchestra of her own, patterned after Guy Lombardo's . . . hence she has a hobby of collecting autographs of famous musicians and tooting away on Mick- ey, her sax. Her chief pastime is being in the company of Sid, the daVinci of tomorrow. It you hear a high soprano giggle or her pet saying, Gimme some gum, you'll recognize at once this blue-eyed blonde-a popular lass and a pal. PHILIP EDGAR BRUBAKER, JR.

Soccer's aim in school was only to learn things that would prove useful to him a little later in life. This lad is very much interested in physics, chemistry and all things dealing with Science. He has proven his talent and ability in this line more than once. One of the things 'fSoccer en- joys is to use the largest and most complicated words that he knows, when giving oral topics. After graduation Soc- cer is interested in learning the plumbing trade more thor- oughly and working with his father. According to his ability shown in school along this trend we think that Soccer will become a very successful plumber. EDNA ELIZABETH GROFF FEBRUARY 18, 1918 New HOLLAND, PA..
