SENIOR Issun THE MIRROR Nuptials THOSE WEDDING BELLS- The engagement of Miss Evelyn Mae Brown to .l. B. Haney, of the German department of N. Y. U., was recently announced. With June swiftly flying away, great plans are being made for the big event which takes place on the 24th. The Couple plan to be wedded in New York City in the German Chapel of St. John the Divine's Church. For bridesmaid, our music supervisor, Miss Evalyn Jones, has been chosen. Miss Brown has been the German and French instructor in P.H.S. for the past two years-and without a doubt a good one. Her 3rd year Ger- man students consider her sehr gut and her Frenchy scholars echo oui oui. Were you ever to drop into the future Mrs. Haney's home at 1024 Ocean Avenue, in Brook- lyn, you would undoubtedly taste of mushrooms and steaks with strawberry shortcake after- wards-the couple's favorite dishes. AND THEY LIVED HAPPILY- J. W. Beattie, of the English Department, of P.H.S., and Miss Gladys M. Knaub, of the War- wick Township High School, will be married next Tuesday, June 21st, in the Otterbein United Brethren Church in Mount Wolf, Pa. Mr. Beattie's father, the Rev. W. M. Beattie, will perform the service and C. R. Wilker, of Palmer- ton High, will act as usher. Immediately following a reception which will be held at the Hotel Yorktowne at York, Pa., where the future newly weds, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Fatzinger may visit. Miss Gladys Knaub, after her wedding, will continue teaching French and Latin in Rothsville Pa., and Mr. Beattie will remain among the P.H. S. faculty. After much pleading, Mr. Beattie finally con- ceded Hambruger steak is my favoritewand I am not all atwitterl HERE COMES THE BRIDE- Showers and probably a wedding was the wea- ther forecast and on June 21, such will be the case. Miss Florence Barnes and Henry Fatz- inger are to be married at the former 's home. The new little home at 140 Lafayette has gone through, trying days of scrubbing, waxing, cleaning, varnishing, etc., by a draft of P.H.S. teachers, all of whom entered into the spirit of the game and worked with a smile. Mr. Fatz- inger confidently said it was mighty Hne ex- perience for them and that it did come in handy. Even the little garden, bright with mint, let- tuce, peas and snap dragons, beckons invitingly. Miss Tomb searches in vain for Miss Barnes' Passion fruit , but the latter will attempt to grow NECtarine for her pleasure. All is ready for the great events, and now, more than ever, Mr. Fatzinger's pockets are filled with caramels and he seriously informed us that his diet is peanuts, pretzels and hot dogs-but that Miss Barnes could live on apples. Miss Nancy L. Griffith, after one year of fine teaching in the English and French divisions of the Palmerton High School, is leaving to accept a position in Milton, Pa. The town lies four miles from her home and since she will become Supervisor of French in that school, she has ac- cepted. Miss Griffith graduated from Bucknell Uni- versity, where her father is a Professor and spent her Freshman and Sophomore years of high school studying in France. Modesty marks Miss Griffith and it is only now we find she writes exquisite poetry and has had twenty-eight of those written in lighter vein, published. Due to her excellence in teaching, and genial humor, Miss Griffith was acclaimed by all a fine teacher.

I groped blindly, walking unsteadily much like a drunken man. The smoke increasefl, making my eyes smart. The heat was terrificf- I gasped for breath, loosening the necktie and tight collar that was too small for me. For safety measures I tied my handker- chief over my nostrils, preventing the smoke from choking me. With one, last, desperate surge, I stumbled past the chairs that blocked my way, and still gasping for breath threw open a window. .Ioyfully I stuck my head through the window, to enjoy a bit of fresh air, that had been denied me before. VVearily I dropped into the vacant chair. In a way I was glad. I-Iadn't I got a seat, and wasn't I on time? Surely, I had made che Kunkletown Limited on time, it was exactly 5.15.
