jlmptcnnian ns TO OUR ESTEEMED FRIEND AND TEACHER S. Clyde Frankenfield AT PRESENT IN THE UNITED STATES SERVICE THIS NUMBER OF THE AMPTENNIAN IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED V Our Soldier-Principal MR. S. CLYDE FRANKENFIELD, principal of our high school, was born in Coopersburg, Dec. 2, 1887. He spent his boyhood days at Passer, I Jerks County, Pa., attending the public schools at that place. After completing his public school education, he sought higher institutions of learning. At the age of nineteen he attended the Kutztown State Xormal School, where he graduated in 1908. The following year he came to our town as a teacher in the Northampton High School. He has taught in our town for ten years and he made many friends. He was appointed principal in 1913 (due to the absence of Principal Shinier). He has acted principal ever since. In the spring of 1917. great gloom was spread over the school when it was learned that Mr. Frankenfield would be included in the draft. In the fall of 1917 he was examined for military service and he was passed, ready to lie called for training at any time. A greater gloom was spread over the school in the spring Vif this year, when Mr. Frankenfield received his notice to report at Camp Lee. Virginia. On April 27th. he was found ready to enter the service of the United States. He is now stationed at Camp Lee preparing to fight the Hun (and assisting our high school as well ). The school wishes him the world of luck and a safe icturn. « OUR MEMBERS The Class of 18 is a niotly elan, Their number amount to iust sixteen and ten. Theirs, is the record of making a noise.

Bennes LANGUAGES Clinton A Bilheimer MANUAL TRAINING Marie B Faulkner MUSIC Edwin f. Palm MATHtMATICS Marion S Kern ENGLISH Senior Class History THE Senior class has completed its four years in X. H. S. with its numbers somewhat depleted from the time that we started. One rainy, dreary morning, early in September. 1014. over fifty pupils Hocked toward X. II. S.. all scared and flustered about the mistakes they might make and the severe looks the teachers might give them: but soon all these fears and misgivings fled, the sun chased the clouds away, and the pupils were joyful and happy. We sighed with joy that we passed that first day all right. The ensuing days passed quickly, and before we knew it. the term was at an end. Our Sophomore year found us quite haughty and we did not pay much attention to those low Freshmen. 1 lowever, we became more democratic and proceeded to make a name for ourselves. e won a dehate from the Freshmen, became popular socially, and tendered a farewell party to Miss Werley (now Mrs. Brobst), at the end of the year. In our Junior year, we were superior to any other class (so we thought), for we were the life of X. H. S. Our boys composed almost the entire Basket Hall team and the Orchestra members were nearly all Juniors. We took an active part in Literary Society and in all other school doings. Our last year has revolved quickly, but not without results. We, the dignified Seniors, instituted the monthly magazine. La Pcrlc. I his required quite a bit of work and the copies were sometimes late, but better late than never. We also played a prominent part in Athletics, having four Seniors in the Boys Basket Ball team and three in the Girls Basket Ball team. The class of 1918 gave the leader, two clarionetists, one cornetist, the pianist and the bell and drum player to the Orchestra. We don't know what they will do next year. Yet these achievements are small compared to what we hope to do, “We finish to begin and in time our scattered numbers will be found in law offices, as instructors in colleges, as heads of large manufacturing concerns and perhaps even as street cleaners. We owe a great deal to X. H. S. and although we part, we shall never forget her. —W. R. 18 SENIOR CLASS THE SENIOR CLASS Class Motto—H r finish to begin Class Colors—Black and Yellow Class Flower—Pink Rose OFFICERS: George H. Schisler ................... President Mavsie I. Hawk ........................Secretary F.lsie 15. Xewhard.....................Treasurer 14 GEORGE HARRISON SCHISLER “CAP” Here he is. The one who was one of the few who helped to raise the standard of the class to the utmost degree. Some activities in school, during his four years, with which he was connected, are as follows: President of the Class for two years. A regular on the Basket Ball Team for four years. A regular on the Base B3II Team for three years. Director of the Orchestra the last year One of the speakers in the Oratorical Contest. One of the winners in the Field Day events. .Member of the Glee Club. Member of the Senior Male Octette. Member of the Senior Mixed Octette. Assistant Business Manager of the La Perle. Besides these activities in school he was a frequent visitor in Northampton. The question need not be asked why by the majority of the people. “Cap” seems to like the position of cterin trian. Go to it “Cap” and good luck. EUGENE STUBBS STOKES Take notice to the handsome chap who sails from the Second Ward. He is one of our prominent half-dav students. Putting this minor point aside, he is one of the most active members of the class. He represented the class in interclass debate for two years. He is well known for his oratorical ability, and he was one of the eight who took part in the Oratorical Contest. Talk about a basket ball player! He was the star forward on the Varsity team for three successive years. That isn't all he can do, in the line of sports. He captured a few prizes at the field day track meet and lastly, but not least, he played on the baseball team for three years. He expects to become superintendent in the Government Laboratory in the near future. Good luck to you. Stokes. We know your prospects will not fail. 15 MAYSIE IRENE HAWK “MITZIE” “Better late than never” Here behold her, as she Is. This is Maysie Irene Hawk, one of the popular members of our class. She is our class secretary and an active member on the basket ball team. She also was one of our Oratorical Contest speakers and captured the girls’ first prize. Whenever we saw Maysie approaching High School at full speed, we knew it was time for school to commence. If she came early, she was chattering all the time, worse than gos-sipers. She was always one of the last ones to be in the room when we have class meetings. “But we all know the reason why.” Maysie expects to be a school marm, and we look forward for her success. ELSIE 3EULAH NEWHARD “LADY” “Smile and we will smile with you.” Elsie is one of the talented girls of our class. She is one of the best sopranos in the High School. The rich quality of her tones have made her precious in our Girls’ Glee Club. She also has some ability in speaking, being one of our Inter-Class Debaters last year and this year a speaker in the Oratorical Contest. She has proven herself a skillful player in the Girls' Basket Ball Team for four years. Elsie is quite an attractive girl. Her bright smile and red (heeks are always welcome. Miss Elsie, as she is well qualified as a singer, hopes that some day she will be placed on ihe Lyceum (?) Course of the Redpath Bureau and again come back to the High School Auditorium and see her class mates in the audience. We wish you success. Elsie. 16 HILDA IRENE BACHMAN “HITV “Hib is one of our prominent girls, as the Social Editor of La Perle, as a leading soprano, as a member of the Senior Girls’ Sextette, and the Senior Mixed Octette. She does well in her studies and r;nks as having one of the highest averages in the class. Her interest in the Juniors, especially the President of the Class and the President of the Athletic Association threatened to make her shirk her studies, but fortunately she maintained her standard. MAUDE JULIA COLEMAN “SMILES” One chief thing is portrayed in the features of Maude. That one thing is her smile. It has captured more than one fellow’s tender heart. As jest manager of La Perle and year book, of course, no better name could be found. She took part in the sextettes and octettes of the Senior Class and also was a member of the Glee Club. She was the comedian of our class before a young man from Allentown deprived her of her position (?). Maude always did fine work in the line of mathematics. She said. “Mr. Palm never had anything against her except the logs in her trig(onome)tree.” Moreover as a class we wish her success and happiness. 17 MAZIE IRENE DILLIARD “DICK” Here's a poet and we didn’t know it. Give her a pen and she'll try again. Mazie or “Dick.” as she is also known, entered the Northampton High School as a Freshman, four years ago. Dick is also known as one of our smart girls of the 1918 class. She seldom raises a fuss, but is always easy going and quiet. She has been an active member in the Literary Society and showed her abilities as a speaker. Dick” with her splendid line of poetry, has given fine contributions to the monthly book “La Perle.” She hopes that in the near future her name may be placed in the American Literature text-book as one of the noted present day poets. Her long fingers, piercing eyes and oval face may be a few indications for her ability as a poet. In behalf of the Senior class of 1918 and her friends, we wish her a world o success as a poet. HERBERT EDWIN EISENHART “SOCRATES” In our Sophomore Year in High School, Eddie joined our popular class. He is one of our out of town students, who hails from Cementon. Eddie’s “hang-out” is at the doctor’s place We had an idea that he would take up the study of medicine, but he is going to take up the Bachelor of Arts Course at one of our local universities. He is a member of the Senior Octette, and also of the Boys’ Glee Club. You look at Socrates, the great Greek writer, and then look at this fellow! You’ll swear that this is Socrates No. 2, hence his name. Socrates is a very studious fellow. Why he is that studious at times, that he is never satisfied with bis studying till he hears the neighbor’s rooster bugle for breakfast. Well we hope that he will have the best of success and become a successful professor (which is his aim) at one of our universities. 18 WALDEMARTHEODORE FEDKO “CONFEDY” If silence were golden. His pockets would be filled. Did you say bashful? Well, yes, Waldemar is somewhat bashful. He hails from sunny Newport, where he keeps a store, and usually carries a supply of chewing gum for the girls. In our first year in N. H. S. Waldemar was aery bashful, and hardly talked to the girls, hut now well he takes a good deal of interest in the girls, and we know he has lost some of his bashful ways, for occasionally we see him In the Third Ward. When you see Waldemar walking you think he is falling asleep, but did you ever see him play basket ball? He was the center for the boys' regular team and did good work. He is also the leading cornetist in our H. S. orchestra, and the star cartoonist for La Perle, whose name he suggested. We all expect Waldemar to be our first honor student for he surely deserves it. Some day we might meet Professor Waldemar. for he is going to some college to continue his studies. We hope you shall succeed, whatever course you take. Success Is sure to come to the sincere and studious. LAWTON WILBUR FYE “DIMPLES” The old saying, that all good things come in small packages, is an exception in this case; for who could deny that. Lawton is the best comedian in N. H. S. and he has had not little experience in the musical world. Along this line he is talented as a drummer, pianist and he is also one of the best bass singers in school. As an orator he has shown his ability in the Oratorical Contest, for he won the second prize. One of the characteristic traits of “Dimples” is his ever ready smile which has now many a friend for him, especially among the girlies of N. H. S. Last but not least, we dare not forget to mention his great ability as a typist. He has received a certificate for typing sixty-one words per minute. Some record, eh! His future ambition is to be a typist for some large firm and the best wishes of his classmates go with him. 19 FLOYD ERWIN GEARY ' “TWIRLEM” As the wind he bloweth, when he listeth. But no man listeth. when he bloweth. Four years' Varsity Basket Ball Team, three years’ Varsity Base Ball Team, Track Team. Literary Society President. Oratorical Contest Speaker, Inter-Class Debater. As a Freshman “Twirlem was far from be-ins one of those meek, mild eyed, unassuming creatures who are rather seen than heard. He came from the Central building with the avowed intention of showiny how the school should be run. He urgently insisted on staging rn Inter class debate, but a few words with his ‘ would be opponents soon convinced him of the folly of this plan. This precocious boy is the wonder of the school today, to say nothing of the despair of the teachers. He is found to disagree frernently with his text boo’ s. Floyd is faithful to his class and has presented it in the weight contests. He works hard on all courses not in the school curriculum. He is a first class musician, although bashfulness often deprives others of the joys of his rage. After graduation, he is going to try to do his bit in bringing the Hun to his Nsnees. To him we 8iy “nu revoir” but not gb d-bye.” ESTHER IRENE GROSS “GROSS Y” V Candy! Well, 1 guess. Especially whenxt is donated. We wonder why she made an atX tempt to enter the Pa and Ma” restaurant sometime early in January. At window decorating, she is fine; especially when it comes to catching Robbers (Raub). Esther intends to enter upon a life of business, or which we know she will make a success, by the way she clerks in her Daddy’s shoe store. She was a faithful members of the girl«’ glee club, and we know now why the glee club improved so wonderfully the last year,—May I tell you—it was due to her taking vocal lessons. She also played center on the class Basket Ball team and always started the ball down to her goal a humming, which went a long way to help her class win every game. We see Esther enter the Sophomore class room, so many times in a day, is it on account of studies (?) but we can answer that without asking her about it. With a stern effort and a bound to win look, she entered a game, and we are sure she will enter the game of life in the same unerring way. 20 EARLE HEPLER GROVE “GROVEY” Grovey is one of the brightest in our class. He is a fast young fellow, that is fast in his work. He is the shorthand speed king in our class and is also a good typist. While the basket ball season was in full bloom he was acting as stenographer for Mr. Sheaffer. He got his stenographic knowledge last summer when he was working in the office at the Atlas Portland Cement Company. Grovey is one of our tenor soloists and is also a good pianist. His plan is to get some more experience in stenographic work this summer and then go to some business college to become a first class business man. We are all sure that he will succeed. EVNA GRACE STROH “TOPSY “Topsy hails from the lower end of town. She is a very popular member of the cliss. She is active in all sports. As a Basket Ball player, she was very successful and ably lep resented our class on the team. Besides being a good student and a leader in various sports, “Topsy” showed her musical ability in accompanying the High School Orchestra and the Glee Club. She delighted to play the accompaniment for the famous Senior eornetist, but of course we really can’t blame her. As a member and pianist for the Glee Club also her splendid work is appreciated by all. She was one of the members of the Senior Octette which made the class famous on various occasions. We feel assured that in the future the N. H. S. will greatly miss her as its pianist. “Topsy intends to widen her musical knowledge by taking a special course in music. We all wish her success and hoping that she may some day become famous in the musical world. In the literary work in school, she took a very great interest. At the Inter-class debate, she won fame as the reciter for the Sfniors. “Topsy” was not only a fine recitet but also a good debater. 21 ERNEST CHARLES JOHN HALLER “HALLER” Among the class of 1918, We find a member bold and curious. Who scarcely works, but talks and loafs. And pests the girls till they are furious. Thru good fortune Haller was allowed to join our hippy bunch, for he had knowledge enough to skip one grade in the grammar schools and continue his work until the end. His high school career was made pleasant by the sports which are connected with the school. As a tennis pliyer he surpassed many of his school chums. He also took a great deal of interest in baseball and basket ball, being a member of the varsity baseball team. Thru the latter sports he prospered much in the getting on with the girls. His most appreciated work was that of being the business manager of “La Perle and the “Amptennian. This work was most successful. being aided by his high school commercial course. In this course he gained the Underwood Typewriting certificate for 41 words a minute last year. MAXWELL ARTHUR COLEMAN “MAC” Max came here from Allentown at the beginning of his Senior year. His main reason for his coming to our dear old X. H. S. was to develop his capacity of thought and knowledge. He was usually seen riding his horse to Latin class, but we really think that it must have gone lame. His scholastic interests have been so great that he found no time to associate with the fair sex. He was an active member of the Literary Society, being a fluent orator and debater. He participated in the Senior-Junior Inter-class debate. as a star member of our team. His life work Is not definitely decided upon; however, we are sure he will mike good at his chosen profession of Practicepids. 22 FRANKLIN ASHER KOCHER “JERK Hark! as our friend steps closer, For, ’tis our mate F. A. Kocher A silent, shy, peace-loving soul. Whose aim it is to reach the goal. Behold! Our patriot is in our midst. Ho took the first step to do his bit and help his country when the Government gave orders to save meat, he has discontinued his assistance at Kleppinger’s slaughter house in order to save the cattle and instead of eating so much meat, his favorite desert has become Rice (?). As early as in the Junior year, he had proved his ability not only as a bass soloist, but as an eloquent speaker, for he was chosen as one of our Inter-Class speakers at a special meeting. He was a fairly good student in the Commercial Department, and was manager of the Exchange Department of “La Perle.” Finally, we hope that his faithful work will I.rln ; achievement. WILLIAM HARPER REINHOLD “BILLY “Billy” came from Lansdale and entered our class in April of our Freshman year. At that time, we considered him as a studious little fellow, but we gradually changed our minds. “Billy has a good little head, but at times got rather stubborn and indifferent. And then naturally got in wrong with the faculty very frequently. When “Billy first came here, he was rather interested in the fair sex. Whether he failed in his love affairs or whether he simply ceased to care, we don’t know, but that may be the reason that we find him going out alone in the woods for some sort of sport. Billy was always in for fun and up to some sort of tricks and usually, we could see him with a smile. So on the whole,, we got along pretty well with “Billy.” “Billy wishes to enlist and we hope he will be successful. 23 If questions and smiles would keep girls alive, Ruthie would thrive to one hundred and five. Uni-m-m and here we have ltuthie' otherwise Miss Smiles,” whose shining countenance fully justifies the latter name. But Ruthie” can do more than smile indeed—she was our star Basket Ball forward during the season of 1917-18, scoring the high-[ est number of goals on the girls' team. In public speaking, too, Ruthie” was not found lacking, for she carried off the Girls second prize of $5.00 in the Oratorical Contest. There has eben not a little class rivalry between the Juniors and Seniors this year, but— when along came Ruthie and ' A Junior stole her heart away. We wonder, however, why her favorite colors are “Blue and IV hite. We are sure that her many bright ideas will some day help her to attain her goal and that -J c. V. S. N. S. will welcome her with open arms next year. JACOB WILLIAM SCHEETZ JAK” “Every man is the architect of his own occupation.” Behold! the celebrity! You have before you a figure somewhat distinguished in the world, that is the moviq world; a figure possibly called “jack-of-all-trades but a master hand in only one, the movie trade. During the latter-half of his high school course “Jake really took more delight and interest in following movie shows and those only of a special kind, than in his school work. Wonder what amused and interested “Jake” at these special shows? Of course, no one would begrudge him of having a movie star for a wife. As a matter of fact Jake” knows a bit of everybody's doings and naturally didn't believe the proverb, “Everybody’s business is nobody's business.” He was a member of the mixed and male octettes and also of the Boys' glee club He helped to bring the high school orchestra up to a high standard, being a prominent clarionet player. The class as a whole wishes him success in his chosen work. , 24 GEORGE TILGHMAN SPENGLER CHIKF” Behold! The only one of 1918 from the great city of Laury’s. Surely you have heard of him. Just a few words to introduce those to him who were so unfortunate as not to know him. He is not one of those who shun education. Rather, he seeks more knowledge, for he expects to enter a business college in the near future. The calm always precedes the storm. Chief’s calm lasted for a period of three years, an era of bashfulness. Then came the storm. His bashfulness disappeared, and in its place came such a boldness that almost lifted most of us from our feet. But now the clouds are breaking and he is in a normal state. His love for a person who travels by the pseudonym of Ernest Haller is the kind that Is seldom heard of. We verily believe he would lay down his life for Haller, but we think he would take Haller’s life first. Alas! The rainbow appears. His days of toil are over and he enters upon a life of success. Of course, hardships will appear from time to time, but we are sure his success as one of the leading business men of this vicinity will far out balance these. PEARL MYRTLE STETTLER “PENDY” This stern looking young maiden is Pearl Myrtle Stettler (Pendy), the smallest girlie in our class. She is very quiet among strangers, but among her classmates, O, My! If you want to see her blush just call her Pendy” and she sure will accommodate you. If you are anxious to know the reason ask her, see if she will tell you. In our study periods. Pearl can always be found studying, because she is a very studious little girl. Her favorite subject is Trigonometry. As she herself stated, she is “chicken hearted,” the least little thing disturbs her and when she is thus disturbed her brown eyes are covered with a mist. She is one of the few girls in our class who does not bother about the boys, but then I am afraid she w'ould be too bashful to speak a few words to her friend. Pearl’s future desire is to become a saleslady for Semmel’s Variety Store in town. 25 MARTIN FRANKLIN HESS HESSY” Quiet, But Oh My! “Hessy.” as we call him is “some” boy. As we all know he has the brightest head in our clj;ss. When “Hessy” entered high school he was one of those who hailed from that city of Hcwertown. but because he was so lazy an:l would have been late for school so often, his folks moved to town. The first few weeks after they moved from the aforesaid city, he attended the movies, regularly, but now he has foun i something tetter, for he feels delighted when he can visit the Sophomore class room. Martin never recognized the lower class members as much as he does this year. He always waits for (?) after school at 18th and Washington Ave. Here he presses pavements for the Government. It is believed Hessy goes down to the 'Ihird Ward quite often, we do not know whether he goes to show (?) his musical talents on the piano, but we all have our doubts. The class can already see him in his good old country home, leading a good contended life of a farmer. The class, as a whole, wishes him all possible success. WILLIAM GEORGE WALKER “BILL” “Bill is one of those tall, lanky fellows, who comes from the city of Coplay. Bill is about the tallest member of our class, he is a close resemblence of the Costello type of man. N ou never find him quiet, if he is not talking chemistry. he is humming popular airs. Bill tried his abilities in Basket-Ball and Base Flail, though he was not successful in getting on the Varsity teams, he gave his loyal support to the class teams. As a tennis player. Bill is very quTrfc, Every morning, rain or shine, he can Xe see£- going up Washington Avenue on his at s very fast clip. Well. Bill, we hope you‘ifil'T erp going just as fast with your aim in life. 26 HELEN IRENE WUCHTER “SNOOK Y OOKUMS” “Snookums or Snookie hails from the upper end of town. She is very quiet at times when left alone, but when some one calls her “Georgie,” oh my! she seems to be wound up like an eight-day clock. The fiddle and piano finds a warm friend in “Snookie” and in addition to her regular work we hope she will make them her life study. She also belongs to the “divinely fair group” of our class. The first twro years of “Snookie’s high school career were very quiet, for she was very bashful, but her last tw'o years have been far otherwise, for she attends our class parties and all school affairs. How’ever her interest in these is less strong for we know that it is taken up mainly with Campbell’s vegetable soup. “Snookie” is one of the brightest in our Trigonometry class, and she surely loves the branch, for we can always tell by the smile on her face when she receives her report card that she gets 100% (?) She is a faithful student of argumentation and uses her persuasive abilities on a poodle dog. Snookie” enjoys a good joke and a hearty laugh. She intends to be a nurse, but that future hope seems to be shattered for we can already see her the mistress of a bungalow dream, come true. HARRY FRANKLIN ZIEGENFUSS “ZIGGY” “Bashfulness never makes the man.” Here’s our boy. Harry, from the “Golden East.” His favorite used to be riding to school on his bicycle, but he has now taken to walking. He wras a very bashful boy at first but he is not so any more. He is “pretty” bright in school. When called upon to recite it is usually “I forgot” or “I didn't get that far.” He was quite interested in athletics but that dissolved in his head. In the Laboratory he is always seen playing with acids trying to make explosions. He is taking up a psychological course. He wanted to quit school some time ago but is now glad that he did not. His hobby is “Nothing to do till tomorrow.” We wish him success in his achievements. 27 Senior Class Prophecy AT last we are in France,—beautiful France! Yes, you have surmised correctly. I am a Red Cross Nurse, just here from America, giving my all—-my little—for my country. I he mission of this narration is not so obvious as you may think. It is to impart a very surprising bit of news, rather fortune, which has come to me since my arrival. 1 tell you that this is to me, quite the most amazing among the phenomena of humanity. Lend me your imagination, please, and I shall paint my experience, just as it actually occurred to me. The sun is rising—rising with all its golden splendor, over the fountain of Domremy, which is situated on the brink of a boundless forest. It plays havoc with its waters, dancing up on them, working its magic arts in colors too beautiful to paint. The water sprites are at their best, dancing and whirling in the sun. But the forests of Domremy—these are the glory of the land, for tradition tells us that in them are the alxxles of mysterious power, and ancient secrets that tower into tragic strength. Abbeys there are, and abbey's windows “like Moorish temples of the Hindoos” that exercised princely power even in Touraine. And these abbeys have their bells—sweet bells that pierce the forests for many a league at matins or at vespers, each resounding its own dreamy legend. But they must remain for Domremy is haunted to that degree by fairies that the parish priest or “Cure is obliged to read mass there once a year in order to keep them within bounds, at a proper distance from the abbey. The forests look so inviting, just before duty, 1 wondered could I j enetrate their dark abyss. 1 have just one hour’s time. Yes—I shall g°- This is wonderful!—Oh, wonderful, to see Spring, realistic, charming. enchanting in all her verdant glory, touching her wand to all the leaves and trees, to everything in nature. I can almost imagine that 1 am Joan of Arc herself who spent her early childhood days in this boundless forest. Thus far, my path has l een strewn with flowers, but it may be only to deceive me. to make me hope that happiness is always to fall thus in showers at my feet. Alas it is. For—even now 1 hear the roaring of 28 the guns and I know that I must hurry on. on—to see more of this beautiful country, this I-and of Immaterial, before this day's horrors. In the distance something looms up before me. Could it really be the ruins of one of those stately abbeys which are overrun by sprites and fairies. 1 wonder, can I approach it? My path is not so clear. Now the flowers rise behind my steps, and not before them. What a strange place! How often loan of Arc must have poured forth her love and fears for her country, her confessions to the “Cure before this altar, and perhaps in this very abbey! I am almost afraid to go on. This place is so dark. But look—one. two. three many sprites and fairies! They will speak to me. Would I like to explore the secret vaults and staircases of this abbey ? Nothing would please me better, little sprites! “This is the social staircase? But we are going down—down to a terrible abyss, with uncontrolled forces. Where are my little friends? 1 am sinking! May the “Cure of this abbey help me! Ah! Light at last! But what is this? My own, beautiful America! Is this my old friend Esther Gross? Surely I must be camouflaged, for she does not see me. She is holding in one hand, a diploma certifying her graduation from the Allentown Business College, and in the other— do I see aright—in the other a contract which she has just signed to accept a position as stenographer and private secretary at the Atlas Portland Cement Co. Her outlook is indeed very promising. On again and I see Mazie Hilliard in the garb of a nurse at the Allentown I lospital. She looks very trim and business-like as she dexterously straightens a pillow here, administers to a patient there and finally tucks a stray lock of chestnut hair in under her own cap. Mazie is an ideal nurse and will soon become one of the best private nurses in the hospital. Here is a moving picture house. How soon have 1 journeyed to New York! For surely this is the largest movie theatre in New York. I shall turn my weary steps thither and rest awhile. Can it be possible! The first thing on the screen reads This machine is operated by a member of the I. A. T. S. F... Jacob Sheetz. Good for you. Jacob! I always knew that the “Lyric at Northampton would some day lx? proud to say that you had once operated its machines. Now that 1 am in New York 1 shall surely see what is playing at the Hippodrome. That central figure is no less person than Hilda Bach- 29 man, singing to her spellbound audience. Let me see a programme. It reads: ‘‘Madame Bachman, graduate of the Conservatory of Music in New York.” Good luck, Hilda, and may your songs not he in vain! Surely those laughing eyes will some day captivate a worthy heart. There! I thought this name looked familiar. Just below Madame Bachman's name stands the name of Miss Evna Stroll, our former pianist of good old X. II. S. We were always proud to think that the Seniors could furnish the best pianist, but 1 am still more elated to think that the accompaniest at the Hippodrome is Miss Stroll, of the Class of iK. Now the New York University looms up before me. 1 see William Walker, graduating as a student of theology, lie is still the same shy William, but his voice is now capable of working wonders. A mist rises before me. The past seems like a dream. I am hack in Northampton—dear old home of the X. II. S. Here the Atlas Portland Cement Co. is again the most conspicuous factor, for I see the Government labratory lioasting of Harry Ziegenfuss and Martin Hess as the chief cement inspectors. Martin tells Harry that he has quite a nice little income but Harry, with a knowing look, smiles, for rumor has said that Martin will not always Ik- single. Oh yes! I remember the time at X. H. S. when—no I won't tell tales, and must hurry on to another part of this cement plant. Who knows, but perhaps more Seniors have secured positions here. Why certainly! Here is Elsie New-hard at the head of the clerical department. Elsie is a very capable business woman. She was always good in mathematics. 1 hear her humming in that sweet soprano voice of her's as she gances down happily at a new ring sparkling on her left hand. I hear she is specializing in music and promises to he another “Alma Gluck. Really this is too good to he true! 1 lere we are in Panama. 1 wonder whom I'm going to see now. B’ess me. if it isn t illiam Reinhold. Why, Bill, one would scarcely know you. tanned as you are under the tropical sun. But you're taller and have broadened out more. C ivil engineering certainly agrees with you. I knew that some day you would make use of your trigonometry. But again, but where? Oh. this is Easton and just as luck would have it. 1 am now standing directly in front of one of the largest shoe stores in this part of the country. “Coleman's shoes for all the family i printed on the large windows. Why it's Maxwells store! Max always was business-like, but to think that he is the owner of this beautiful store is a surprise. 30 Just a few miles more and the next destination is Bethlehem. Yal-demar Fedko believes that perfect culture should apply a complete theory of life based upon a clear knowledge of its possibilities. After having learned all the Greek. Latin and French possible. Waldemar is now a professor of languages in the Lehigh University. I know that Waldemar is an ideal professor. And who is this splendid looking soldier walking towards me so briskly? Floyd Geary! Since when have you enlisted? But then you know Floyd was always an active members of the Home Guards. Floyd presents a wonderful appearance in uniform and I see many lassies setting their caps for him as he passes along. Keep it up. Floyd, never stop until you are a general. Pearl Stettler! I like that rushing headlong into me just as tho I were not human. Out buying seeds? So you have taken up plant chemistry and are now at the head of the Working Reserve for Girls? Fine! Pearl was always a very good agriculturalist at school in her garden plot and her Working Reserve Uniform tells its own story now. How time does fly! And these little fairies still'lead me on just as tho 1 were not subject to fatigue. Well. I am back in dear Northampton again. While I am here, why not take a peep into X. H. S. All strange professors, all hut—Hello Ruth! S. Ruth SheafFer teaching mathematics! Now I just wonder whether you are a very good disciplinarian with that winning smile and those raven locks of yours. I’ll bet those Senior boys won’t always mind. Ruth always did like mathematics letter than languages and the class of '18 should again feel glad that they are so well represented in N. H. S. Really—Edwin! Edwin Eisenhard take that severe look off your face immediately. Surely, it’s your old classmate. Come to hear you teach languages. You are bound to be principal some day. Edwin. My next destination is the “Allvvell hospital in Northampton which was donated by Rockefeller in 1922. Here again 1 see two well known figures and no less persons than Maude Coleman and Helen Wuchter: Maude is, of course, in the large office connected with the hospital. From the gossip of the nurses, I hear that vivacious Maude has won the doctor’s heart and that soon Maude will be the head of his home instead of spending her time powdering her nose, and doing a little directing in the office and receiving her salary. But Helen is dressed in spotless white, in the uniform of a nurse. Helen is wearing a pretty jx ut now because she is attending an “I don’t want to get well patient. 31 One really can't blame him. yon know, for I lelen's appearance in the nurse’s uniform is the heigth of perfection. Near the “Allwell hospital I seea strange, new. building. I’m going to explore, master or no master! There standing at the table in an A Xo. i laboratory stands Eugene Stubbs, a wonderful chemist. He experiments continually and has discovered not a few new chemical laws and formulas. His rosy future also depicts a happy home for two. for Eugene was always more or less of a heart-breaker of the class. And now I see George Schisler as a veterinarian. 1 ie has the trade for miles and miles around. Even now his place is crowded with all sorts of domestic animals, waiting to receive treatments from him. George is making money galore, but you can all imagine what he will use it for. Xow I've travelled so far and haven’t seen one Commercial Student of our class. They must surely be lost, strayed or stolen! But no. I am suddenly transported again to the city of Philadelphia. In John Wanamaker's large office I see four familiar figures. They are Earle Grove, George Spengler, Ernest Haller and Franklin Kocher. Strange that I should find these four boys together, but they were chums at school. My, but those typewriters do hum! Earl is an expert bookkeeper. George is also engaged in that work while Franklin and Ernest speed those typewriters up to one hundred and five words per minute. Last, but not least, I see I-awton Fye. I had almost expected to see him pounding a typewriter, for he was one of the best stenographers at school. But he is now the best drummer, soloist and pianist in Eastern Pennsylvania. And now 1 have seen all of my school mates, their futures depiste 1. with rosy delineations. Some one tug at my hand. My little fairy friends have returned. Why have you wicked little sprites deserted me so long? But 1 am in the same underground garden that I was when I came here—and—what is it? Oh. you have no time. 1 had i|uite forgotten that this was the Land of the Immaterial. But quickly, pray good fairies, take me back up within the walls of the abbey once more. Before 1 could utter another syllable. I was standing along again, on the west side of the abbey, from where 1 could see the fountain of Domremy. My kind true-factors had left me before I could for their service which they rendered to me. I stood as tho dazed, then awake 32 to the realization that I was supposed to be hack at duty within an hour 1 hurried on. What was my consternation when I arrived at Camp to find that 1 was fully two hours late! I suffered not a few pangs of conscience but really I think my little exploration was quite a success, don’t you, class of ' 18 ? —Maysie I.

O11 a bright morning in the month of September, 1915. forty-five smiling Freshman faces filled the halls of our Alma Mater and their hearts beat high with hopes of success. In our Freshman year we became accustomed to our new life. During our Sophomore year, we became the victors in the Freshman-Sophomore Inter-Class Debate. This same year, we had the misfortune of losing one of our most popular members. Bert Luckenbach, who is now a soldier boy. The Class of 1919 is very proud of him. as a soldier boy, and he is now ready to sail over the seas to fight for Democracy. This, our Junior year, has made us quite famous, although our numbers dwindled down to twenty-six. We had the misfortune of losing nineteen members since we entered High School. The officers at present are: President ........................... Carl Rode N ice President ................... David C� etz Secretary ................. Renia Shellhammer Treasurer ..................... Katie Tidabock Poet ............................... Mazie P erg Historian ................. Flora Lindenmoyer We were faithful members of the Literary Society and succeeded in electing all the officers from our class a number of times. The musical talent of our class is shown in the orchestra. Beatrice Conger is assistant pianist; Carl Rtxle. Lloyd Schisler and Norwood Keck, violinists: Samuel Howell, flute: Mark l'ogelman and Hillard Miller, cornet-ists. We have a few good speakers, some of whom have shown their ability in the Junior-Senior Inter-Class Debate. Some people think that it is the custom of our Alma Mater for the Senior Cass to win. but we. the Juniors, have shown them that it no longer shall he. Our Class has some athletic talent. Lloyd Schisler and Leonard Kiechel compose part of the Basket Ball team, while Jesse Kline and Harry Mitman are cur substitutes. There arc a number of boys and also girls who are playing Basket Ball and who we know will make good in time to come. 38 W aving our banners of I’.lack and Red, we expect to gain success by keeping on working as we have been the last three years, although there were times when we did not feel like studying. We sincerely hope that the twenty-six still remaining in our class, will shine at our Commencement. after having successfully completed our four year course. —F. M.

She was very sleepy and when she was about half finished, she fell asleep. In her sleep she dreamt that two fairies came and sat on her table and started to talk. The following was their conversation. “Is this the Sophomore class historian? asked the first. “Yes, and 1 believe she has started a class history, she must he very tired to have fal.en asleep. answered the second. “Let's see what she has written. After she had read it she said, Hm, not so very bad, let's see if it’s all here, as far as she has go.ic. Tell me what the Sophomores have done in their two years at school. “You want just the main points, don't you? Yes. I would like to know what the class has done, and besides you might help the poor sleepy historian is she hears what you sa . Well, on Oct. 2. 1916, fifty-two Freshmen entered X. 11. S. T.iey were just as green as Freshmen usually are. Now. that they're Sophomores, they think that the present Freshmen arc worse than they ever were. —( ?) “That’s natural, isn't it? Of course, every class thinks the same when they are Sophomores. During the first year this number decreased to forty-eight, and now at the end of the second year, there are only thirty-nine of the fifty-two remaining. Several of these come from out-lying towns. 1'hey are represented in the orchestra by two violinists. Alfred Follweiler and Paul Xewhard. But how about lessons and teachers? “All the Sophomores do well in lessons and they like all their teachers very well. They were all sorry to lose Mr. 1'rankenfield, hut they were pleased to give him up for Uncle Sam s sake. What have they done in athletics? (), they have done a good deal of work on the basketball teams. There were three girls on the regular team.—Lillian Dilliard, Mildred Warncke and Marion Scheetz. There were also a number of good players among the boys and some of them hope to lx- on next year's regular team. 40 “Really! That is quite a nice record. Have they done any literary work ?” Yes, indeed, several class members have written stories for La-Perle and I am sure that the class as a whole feel that they have done their share. The Sophomore reciters and orators have done excellent work in Literary Society. The class succeeded in electing a president and a secretary at one time and a vice-president and a secretary at another time.” “So they only once succeeded in electing a president? “Yes. But you must remember that they are only Sophomores and 1 am sure they all hope to succeed better when they are Juniors.” “They also won the Freshman-Sophomore debate, the speakers all did very well, but of course the Sophs won. On this occasion the Sophomores had their class banner hung at the front of the table at which the speakers were sitting. But 1 really can't tell you any more, the historian is waking up and you know we can’t let her see us. Just then I woke and the only sign of a fairy was that my paper had been turned over. I rubbed my eyes, wrote down what I had overheard and added my sincere wish “that all members of the class of 1920 may improve as they advance and that they may live to he proud of having graduated from X. 11.

SOPHOMORE CLASS Freshmen Class History GAIN another year has tolled its way through this Worldly Universe, bringing to dear old Northampton High, the Fresh- When we entered the beautiful structure of Northampton High School, we numbered fifty-two pupils, but as the year has gradually leached its climax, we were very unfortunate in losing members. Our class is very well represented by the “Country Club,” (members of the outlying districts). The principal ones are the following: Miriam Thomas and Elizabeth Portzen, who hail from Kreidersville; Grace Ziegenfuss, coming from eaversville; Verna Peters, whose destination is the Metropolis of Laury's, Pa., and Frederick Oplinger. The last named is a favorite. His home is in Pennsville. Our class has splendid oratorical ability, as has been manifested by the spirit shown by several of our class members, the most prominent being Morris Shafer, the c'ass editor. It was our fortune in having the above named become a successful candidate for the High’s Debating Team. The Freshman Class has shown out prominently in Athletics, especially in P askct Ball. The boys' team, composed of Bachman forward: Rose, Forward: Meyers. Center: Schisler, (Cap’t) Guard: Dei-hert. Guard: Shafer, Substitute, passed a very successful season, defeating all opponents, thereby winning the cup offered by the Faculty, to the winner of the Inter-class series. Although we were not fortunate in producing a Varsity” player, we have splendid material for future teams. The girls’ team passed through a storm, sometimes calm and sometimes boisterous, for they came out about even in the number of games won and lost. But due credit must be given to them, for they supplied one “sub on the “Varsity” team. The fact that N. H. S. has such a wonderful orchestra can l e indirectly traced to the Freshmen. The members who play in the orchestra are: Earl Bachman, violinist; Carl Dituler, cornetist; Richard Schlos-ser. violinist: William Snyder, cornetist. Besides these there are many more who in time to come will take their stand in the “front ranks of the orchestra. The Freshman class has the proud distinction of supplying more men 44 material for La Perlc (X. II. S. monthly) than any other class. This shows indisputably that we are a studious, capable and efficient class, and it is our earnest desire to prove a credit to “dear old High. As our motto: “lie conquers who conquers himself,” implies self-confidence, we wish to go through Northampton High on our own merits instead of relying on the work and ability of others. Our class colors. Navy Blue and Grey, have a decided effect, for the former implies “Justice and when we reach our graduation year it is our earnest resolution that the lower classmen shall never be heard to murmur: “That c'ass is not using fair methods in their dealings, they do not observe Justice. But that they shall always be heard to utter: When the Seniors, from their worldly height. L’n furled their standards ( Navy Blue and Grey ) to the air; They tore the azure robes of MIGHT And set the hues of Justice” there. Lrstly, but most important of all. we have purchased a Liberty Bond! This is our small, but mighty help toward the overthrow of I’russianism, the uplift of Democracy and that: “Government of the people, by the people and for the people, shall net perish from the earth. —Chas.

Ol'R Literary Society meetings were held every two weeks on a Friday afternoon, with the student body and often a few friends present. Most of our people know what they arc like and have spent many an enjoyable afternoon listening to the recitations, musical numbers, narrations, orations and debates, which the members of the student body rendered. Our school was fortunate enough in having many talented girls and boys along these lines. Iiut we regret to say that towards the latter part of our term interest began to lag. so a new plan was started. Only those who had the required number of points were allowed to attend society meetings. The points were based on marks for class work, participation in athletics, literary contests of various kinds, music work and still other school activities. In this way the faculty hoped to have better and more active society meetings. We owe a good deal of praise to our music director. Miss Faulkner, for her help in arranging musical numbers for the programs. The dialogues which were given by different classes were all good. We appreciate the interest the various members of the classes took. We sincerely hope that when the new term opens and society is again started, that there will be a more energetic and active response to the president. He loyal to the dear X. H. S. and do your part when called upon, and some day you shall be glad you did not shirk your duty. —F.. Nen’hard Ati Junior-Senior Debate MAY 3rd was a red letter day for the Junior and Senior-classes. It was hailed by the members of both classes, for it was the day of the Senior-Junior Debate. Promptly at eight, the High School orchestra played a march, and the classes came marching into the Auditorium, Black and Yellow leading. followed by Black and Red, Brown and White, and Blue and Gray. The Seniors and Juniors looked especially happy and marched like a company of soldiers ready to do their part. The stage was decorated very prettily. 1918 s Black and Yellow figured prominently in the decorations on the left side, while Black and Red. 1917’s colors, were on the right, while each side had. of course, a Hag or two to show their patriotism. On the center wall hung the Black and Orange school banner, while in front of the president’s table hung the banner of the Sophomores, Brown and White, since the presiding officers came from their ranks. Before the debate proper was held, the following short programme was well rendered: Song, Nymphs and Fawns ..............................Girls' Glee Club Song. “Echo”................................................Senior Class Recitation, A Dumbwaiter Difficulty ..................Mazie Berg 17 Octette. Swing Along ............................Senior Boys’ Octette Recitation, Crisis in Room 25 .........................Evna Stroll T8 Trio. Silver Bells ........................................Junior Girls At last came the most important part of the programme. The president called the speakers forward and the Seniors immediately rose to sing a song to encourage their representatives. The question was Resolved that it would be beneficial to all the people of the United States if the Government would control all food prices. The affirmative or Senior speakers were: Eugene Stubbs, Floyd Geary and Maxwell Coleman. The negative or Junior speakers were: David Getz, Jesse Kline and Leonard Kiechel. After almost two hours of enthusiastic and exciting debating, on both sides the matter was left in the hands of the judges. As judges we had secured : 49 Mr. William Grayson, Bethlehem. Mr. C. F. Dengler. Bath. Mr. Rennet, Walnutport. After the decision was announced in favor of the negative, another contest began, this time it was singing. Although the Seniors were beaten in debate and sa-.ig their songs of defeat, their excellent singing showed tlie superiority of 1918 and was much praised and commented upon by the audience. After cheering and congratulating on both sides. Seniors and Juniors marched out side by side in the best of spirits. Society then adjourned until the following school term. —E. B.

'10 ATHLETICS 1=1 WE liavc again completed another season of sport in our higli school, such as basket ball, base ball, tennis and track. The most important of the above mentioned is basket ball. When Mr. Sheaffer. coach of the hoys’s basket ball team, called for candidates, the boys answered nobly to his call. After a few weeks of strenuous practicing, the team was picked, which was composed of the best material found in the school. The schedule being somewhat harder this season than others, the boys were compelled to fight to the last for their victories. The total number of points at the close of the season was 213.

And a bit of grim determination If you want to reach the goal. It takes a deal of stirring With a firm and stern set chain. No matter what the battle, If you’re really in to win. There is no easy road to glory. There's no rosy road to fame. Life however we may see it. Is no simple childish game. But its price calls for fighting. For endurance and fot grit. For a rugged disposition And a don’t-know-where-to-quit. You must take a blow or give one. You must risk and you must lose. nd expect in the end of the struggle. You will suffer from a bruise. But you must never falter. If a fight you once begin. Be a man and face the battle. That’s the only way to win. Contributed. Little Willie from the mirror Licked with glee the mercury off.

Their first meeting was held at the home of Marion Scheetz. At this meeting the guardian. Miss Kern, explained the meaning of the Camp Fire, told them the laws and the purpose of the Camp Fire and told them which honors to work for and how to earn them. They held their first ceremonial meeting at the home of X’orma Knerr. At this meeting the girls were initiated into the Camp Fire as members on probation. During the winter they engaged in several activities. They chose Indian games, made their bead bands and their ceremonial gowns which resemble somewhat the Indian costumes. They also held a basket hall game, the Camp Fire Girls’ team playing against the Coplay girls’ team. The proceeds of this game were for the benefit of the Camp Fire. On the Friday before Christmas they gave a Christmas party for little girls of first, second and third grades. On Flag Day they gave an entertainment, which consisted of a playlet entitled “Spruce Cone and Bunchberry, two recitations, two folk-dances and three songs with motions. They held several hikes in the fall and spring to benefit their health, and lately they have been helping the Red Cross on Tuesday evenings. The founder of the Camp Fire is Mrs. Luther Gulick. Dr. Luther Gulick is the president of the organization. The headquarters of the Camp Fire are in New York. But there are Camp I'ire groups all over the country. The watchword of the Camp Fire is “Wohelo, which consists of the first two letters of “work, “health and “love. The purpose of the Camp Fire is to do the common tasks with a smile instead of a frown, also to find romance. l eauty and adventure in common every day life. Our Camp Fire Girls of Camp Lechauweki are trying to do these things and let us hope they wll succeed. —M. E. M. 20. We like the beautiful brunette, We don’t despise the winsome blonde.
