.S N. 5 . CHARLES NELSON SUTPHEN Flemington, New Jersey Realizing the value of this young man as the head of the Commercial Depart- ment, the Board of Trustees persuaded Professor Sutphen to return to Starkey for another school year. When the question arose concerning the editing of a second volume of The Echo , he immediately became an ardent supporter of our cause. For a second time, the an- nual has materialized under the inspired efforts of Mr. Sutphen. The Echo Board has thrown every ounce of its energy into this work. At times when we lost confidence in our own ability to put this thing across, Mr. Sutphen has always been present with a smile, both to restore our confidence, and to offer his own ability. The Echo Board, which has trodden the rough and steep footpath to success, takes this opportunity to thank its able guide, and to express appreciation for his whole- hearted support and earnest labor. CHARLES L. WARREN Shippensburg, Pa. For three years this young man has un- swervingly devoted himself to inculeating Latin' prose into our impregnable craniums. Undismayed by our reluctant receptibility, he has at last reached the point where the study of Latin and History has become a pleasure instead of a torture. Aside from his conscientiousness in the classroom, Mr. Wfarren has shown great in- terest in our physical welfare. Through his earnest efforts to help us, both on the athletic field, and in the classroom, he has earned the highest respect of the student body. The Senior Class of 1928 showed great wisdom in its choice of this man for faculty advisor. Y1'LUE'7Z1'1l -three

Four years ago VVarner wandered into this institution to acquire what know- ledge could be given him. Right away he made a place for himself in the hearts of his fellow classmates. Hound , as he is called, made further impressions on his friends when he showed his remark- able ability in athletics. Aside from be- ing liked by boys, he is admired by the op- posite sex. Through four years of so- called labor with Regents, he has fin- ally succeeded in reaching his expectations. Starkey will lose a fine, noble and gener- ous fellow, for Paul enters Oberlin Col- lege next fall. May success and happiness be yours in the future, Warne1'. if-XXX H1151 Grahuate There is but one post graduate at Starkey this year. He is Glenn Boyce, the sole survivor of the class of 1927. lVIr. Boyce commenced his high school career in the town of Ovid, New York, but as his Alma llflater he chose Starkey, and so it was that he came to us in the fall of '26, Boyce held down the honored position of captain of a winning foot ball team, this fall, exceedingly well, along with other responsible positions of various types. Glenn is thinking of entering lkiiddlebury College this fall. Twenty-two
