Bail was a hero bold, Of noble cvztcrpwlseg For if you'd see him go, It would make you-1' courage risrvg And 't-would make a gio'l's hcait merry Thrmglf, tears were in her eyes. Johnny is one of our members who hails from the city of Krei- dersville. He was very shy in his Freshman year, but since he has changed a good bit. His four years in school have been marked by hard study. He received a certificate in typewriting for writing forty words per minute and also has shown great ability in writing es- says. He is a very quiet boy when among girls. No doubt this is caused by his bashfulness. As a commercial student Johnny is in good standing and, of course, he in- tends to become a stenographer in later years. - Q,-' 7 ig gnliq 'ell as ll 'feel ,S . w, ' '-24 I l I3-Qc' V' 1 : , fy .. 7. , . l 'Ia ,- cg.:-,yy .-.

After attending the Kreidersville School for eight years, he entered Northampton High School as a Freshman in 1915, with the determination of be- coming a clerk. However, since he has become acquainted with the ins and outs of motor-cycles, he has changed his mind. His ambition is accordingly to become an expert mechanician and to mother your little 'Tin Lizzie? His present interest and abilities as a mechanician assure him further success. Surely, at least, Vfilbert will secure the extensive trade and patronage of the future automobilists of our class. YT-is 95' ?x kg- VP: . . n f- e i

FLORA MAY BLANCHE LIN DENMOYER Commercial Flora entered High School in 1915 with the intention of becom- ing an expert bookkeeper. For this reason she has taken up the com- mercial course. She is indeed very silent, but when it comes to study- ing andreciting she is found to be one of the best. During' the last few months she was unfortunate enough to fracture her finger, which paralyzed her typewriting speed to some extent. Flora is always ready to hel others, when they are in need, if it is possible for her to do so. She is also a member of the R. P. S. We all wish her future success as a bookkeeper. l l , 1 E IRENE SARAH STETTLER Commercial HAZIUH-.118 giggling -zrlwn. she co-mes, Always giggling wlwn. she goes. Irene, although merriment looks out of her bright eyes, is noted for her quietness and sweet disposi- tion. Her chief characteristic is to giggle and that she has down to perfection. Rene is a very loyal member of the 1919 class and cheerfully does her share of the class work. She is a very studious girl and it is a pleasure to see how skillfully she handles the type- writer. Her talent as an actress was brought out in the Senior play, New Hampshire Gold, when she acted the role of heroine. Irene in- tends to be a stenographer or rather a private secretary of some frreat statesmen or a great writer. We know she will succeed. A 2.

CLASS PROPHECY . HE morning sun was shining brightly, evidence of a rare spring day. Outside the birds were singing cheerily, and everything seemed to have life. Even the office force seemed to have new life, for everywhere in the large ofiice of the Capitol could be heard chatter and laughter. This was no common thing for was I not work- ing in the headquarters of the Women is Party of the National Capitol? I was too busy to join in the chatter and laughter, for the post-man had just left a pile of letters to be sorted, opened, and answered. Most of the letters were for the wasteabasket, but the last one aroused my curiosity. It bore the ,post-mark of my dear old hotne town, North- ampton. You would have been interested too, for this is what I read: Northampton, Pa May 12, 1930. Headquarters of the Wo1nen's Party, Washington, D. C. My dear Madam: Will you kindly look up the whereabont and career of Miss Irene Stettler, formerly of Northampton, Pa? The last heard of her was that she was working as a stenographer in Hudson. I thank you in advance. Very truly, JOHN J. BEIL. My eyes nearly popped out of my head when I saw that name, John Beil. He was a class-mate of mine in the dear old Northampton High School. The last time I had seen him was on that memorable Commencement night, June 13, 1919. But another surprise was in store for me. My gaze fell on the letter, and in the upper left hand corner were the words, 'elf not called for in five days, return to John J. Beil, Broker and Dealer in Real Estate, Northampton, Pa. John certainly had not studied his Commercial Law in the Northampton High School in vain. Certainly! The wish of a dear class-mate of mine would be ful- 133,
