MISS MARY SEMANS, A.B. Miss Semans is a native of Delaware and a graduate of Delaware H. S., and Ohio Wesleyan of that city. This is her first year in our midst, but she has certainly left her mark among the students, especially the boys. Her line of activity is Latin, and she knows Caesar and Cicero by heart. Miss Semans is a very necessary member of the faculty and we cannot think of Cicero Class without her. So the class of '17 wishes you a most enjoyable future, Miss Semans, which promises to be very bright. MISS MARY WAGNER, A.B Miss Wagner came here two years ago and began what is deemed a very successful pedagogic life. Miss Wagner was born in Dennison and received her English Education at O.U., where she acquired her degree. Of course the Juniors are Miss Wagner's Favorites as she has charge of them, but nevertheless she is very popular among the student body and always has shown great spirit and interest in school affairs. She has taken great interest particularly in athletics, and has been a heavy rooter at all the Basketball games. Miss Wagner’s long suit is English, in which she is “Jake.” Miss Wagner has decided to quit teaching after this year, so we wish her success in her future profession, whatever it may be (?). 11

R. 0. BURGETT, A.B. Mr. Burgett, our principal and mathematics teacher, has won the love and esteem of all the student body. He is experienced in teaching, having taught one year at O. S. U. and one at Utica High. He was born at Columbus, Ohio. In 1907, he graduated from Doane Academy. He received his A.B. degree from Ohio Wesleyan, then began work at O. S. U. for his M.A. degree, but, although he did not complete his course at that time he expects to in the near future. Mr. Burgett has been an efficient principal, and is highly respected by all. The Seniors are especially grateful to him for his many kindnesses and favors. We wish him success in whatever he undertakes, earnestly hoping that he will be returned next year.

Mr. Will was born in New Straitsville, Ohio, and graduated from East High of Columbus and O.S.U. He came here this year and has been a great addition to the Faculty. From the start of the year, Mr. Will has been a strong man for athletics. He, by ardent work, organized several track teams and conducted a track meet. In Basketball, Mr. Will coached the team through a very successful schedule. In Physics, in which he specializes, Mr. Will has made it easy for the upper classes and his O. K on the experiments is very pleasing to note. Success, Mr. Will will surely be your lot. 12
