Frances Fitch Treasurer--------- Kathryn Baer Eiftht DOROTHY NEWELL Academic Course; Seven Eleven Club: Varsity B. B. ’21-’22-’23. Just “Dot is what we call her; She's noted for her giggle; She could be still a minute. If she didn't have to wiggle. Nevertheless, we must confess. Of all true friends, she is the best. HOWARD LITTLE General Course; Football T9-’20- ’21-'22; Class Basketball '23. When a football gets into Bud’s hands, it takes a merry old ride down across the field. If anyone wishes to get his Baptism of Fire just inter- fere with him on his course. LOUISE LININGER Academic Student; Ta Ta Poncha Club. She’s a sweet little girl. This miss just above: If you get in her way. Out you will get shoved. “We know little of her. She’s very seldom seen; ’Cause she’s always a-working. Over in room 16. FRANCES ASH Commercial Student; Odd Seven Club; Hoppers Club; Class B. B. '21- ’22-’23; Honor Bright. One of the sweetest, neatest, pret- tiest girls we have. “A little maiden with a way and a will. From the little old town of Riceville; Full of laughter, song, and glee. She puts the pep in old ‘23. ’ Nine RUTH BLAIR Academic Course; Honor Student. Ruth is one of those unexpected people who look so quiet and yet al- ways manages to express herself in the most pleasing way. She is a very willing worker, and is the kind of a friend well worth having. DOROTHY MIZXER General Course. Dorothy found one very hard ex- periment in her chemistry course— “the extraction of knowledge from be- tween the covers of the text book.” Dorothy shines in history class. Ten OSHALL PI LG RAM Academic Course. He is one of our faithful students. Two years after graduation from Had- ley High, he decided to complete his high school work at Penn High. We hope that he is as well pleased with his choice as we are to have him with us. ELEANOR HART Academic Course; Honor Student; Springtime; Kidnapped. Patient and quiet and studious, too. That describes Eleanor through and through.” If you want to find out everything about your history lesson, talk with Eleanor. PENNERIAN MABEL KEY Academic Course; Honor Student; Springtime (Zenobia); Ta Ta Ponch- en Club. She is occasionally seized with vio- lent giggling spells, yet she is a studious girl as is shown by her standing in class. It she uses all men as she used “her Toddlekins” in Springtime”—Good day. Mabel is the Key to success in chemistry. MARIE MOYER Academic Course: Ta Ta Ponchen Club. “We grant, although she has much wit She’s very sly in using it.” “Whatever is worth doing is worth doing well” is her motto. She devotes thorough preparation to her class wcrk—especially to French. WARREN MITCHELL Academic Course; Seven Eleven Club; Springtime; Les Deux Sourds; Honor Bright. One does not suspec: that Warren’s funds of knowledge are unlimited un- til they are once tapped. Reserved, and always ready is he with a com- plete explanation of any subject brought up. in the biggest and most puzzling words that could be arranged in grammatical form. Le; the Staff do it!!!! JENNIE CHRISTY Academic Course: Honor Student; Ta Ta Ponchen Club. Take her in inches. She’s not very tall. Take her in brains. She comes up to them all.” Jennie is the shadow of Mabel. Eleven PENNERIAN — ■— ■ «■■■■ HELEN LUTTON Commercial Course; Wide-a-vvake Club. “She’s not a peach, she’s not a pearl. She’s just a dandy high school girl. She’s fond of work, she’s fond of play. She has her lessons every day. She’s now to leave us in ’23. We will be sad, sad as can be.” JAMES OSBORN Commercial Course; Farmers B. B. ’20-’21-’22-’23. To say that Jim is honest, studious, human, industrious, ambitious, sober, resourceful, technical, witty and rev- erent is only reciting a few of his minor characteristics. Anyhow, you can judge from this what he will’ be some day. MARIK HOOBLKR Commercial Course. “Marne” is always ready to have a good time a; any one’s expense. Though she is only a little country girl she has dreams of living in Pitts- burgh in the future. ALICE COOK Academic Course. Hath thy toil o’er books consumed the midnight oil? Alice’s most worthy achievement has been to attend school once in a while to get something worth while in the line of marks. Twelve BESSIE VANDYKE Commercial Course; Hopper’s Club; Honor Bright. “As fair as a flower of spring.' As a demure and observant lassie we know that this girl Alls the hill. When she speaks, she upholds the reputation of “saying something. ’ WALTER IFFERT Academic Course; R. F. D. Basket- ball ’23. “No matter what the argument may he. I can always find room to disagree. When Walter heard of the wonder- ful class that was going to graduate from Penn High in 1923, he came at once to join us in our last year’s work. Walter did not take long to show everyone what he could do, especially in the line of debating. HELEN BOLIVAR Commercial Course; Ta Ta Ponchen Club. “She that sleeps feels not the tooth- ache.”—Longfellow. Good to look at and never tries to attract attention. Her quiet, unassum- ing manner has won her many friends and we are sorry that she will not be among us much longer. SAM ALDENDERFER Academic Course; Honor Student; Les deux sourds; Seven Eleven Club; Honor Bright. “Often reported flirting.” Who doesn’t know “Sam”? His smile and friendly words have won him many a friend. Sam is the kind of a fellow who keeps moving upward and we do not, know where he will stop, hut we expect some day to look for “Aldenderfer Sam” in “Who’s Who in America,” and say: That man is of the class of ’23. Thirteen PENNEJJIAN MARY ORR Academic Course; Honor Student; Springtime; Company Square Club. Mary’8 disposition is true to her auburn locks. Oh. indeed, she is very Houghy. But Mary is a hard worker and always gets everything she goes after. JOE ALLEN Commercial Course; Honor Bright. This way the noise was if mine ears be true.’ Judging from his keen eye and wise look, we would say that he would make a good lawyer or a real estate agent, although he is very honest. MARTHA BECKSTEIX Academic Course. Martha has played an important role in school work. She is a favorite of everyone with which she comes in contact. She hates to feel there is something undone she ought to do. and hustle is her middle name. LOUISE FITCH Academic Course; Honor Student: Hopper’s Club. This world is not so bad a world. As some would try to make it. Though whether good or whether ill. Depends on how you take it.” Louise takes it the right way, at least she appears to. Fourteen LURA HUNT Commercial Course. “Who chooseth me shall get what many a man desires.” We didn’t know anything about Lura so we asked her mother—who told us that Lura could 'do anything from patching pants to teaching a Sunday School class. ROBERT LOUTZENHEISER Commercial Course. If hard work counts this ambitious young man will get on top some time. During four years he has done his best, never attending concert, show, or dance. So badly wound up in his studies that he failed to glance even at the variegated hosiery on neatly lined ankles so often seen around Penn High. EDITH HILL Commercial Course; Comonalong Club. “Here’s a girl that Penn High brings. With a double decker brain; She never did attempt a thing. That she did not attain.” “She’s good in work, she’s good in play, She’s a real girl in every way.” EDWIN SMITH Commercial Course; Honor Bright. We were told that Ed. used to wear a smile that could not be worn off— but during his senior year he was often seen without it. The only chem- istry student that completed his course without having an experiment handed hack. (?) (?) (?) Fifteen MILDRED PRESSLER Commercial Course; Class Basket- ball; Odd Seven Club. “Merry as ihe day is long. Mildred wouldn't let her sudies take all her time. Oh my, no! How do we know? Because at 8:59 she is always seen sprinting down the hall towards Room 16. GERALD McLEXAHAN Commercial Course. Better known as Jerry.” he likes to take things easy, but always gets there. He is a good fellow and is very popular around the girls. His hobby is to keep his gang waiting outside the Commercial room door, for his ar- rival from the train. VELMA KELLY Commercial Course. The quiet kind, whose heart of gold. Doth oft treasures fair unfold.” She has but little to say. but has a great power of observation. Her loy- alty is not the type displayed in words but we can count on her when it comes to action. MADELINE STEIN— Pooge” Commercial Course A little girl with a curl in the middle of her forehead. She’s always good, that’s the way with Pooge.” She delights in making cakes and in the pleasure it is never too late for Hogan to partake. He’s quite the steady now. You know. Sixteen LUELLA STEVENSON Commerical Course; Wide-a-Wake Club. Luella has been a serious-and ener- getic student. Quiet? Yes, but with such a pleasing way about her that we feel her presence without a word from her. She puts her best efforts into everything she does. ALBERT MATHAY Commercial Course. “There’s nothing small about him.” Albert has had the privilege of be- ing in several senior classes. But has decided to graduate with us. OLIVE STEVENSON Commercial Course; Honor Stu- dent; Wide-a-Wake Club. Olive is one of our most faithful '23 1 8. Always capable, always will- ing, always cheerful. Take her in History, English, or any other subject, she is never content with anything less than her best. PEARL SHANNON Commercial Course. “Four years have passed as the tor- toise goes. And Pearl has worked as no one know's.” Pearl’s very bashful when called to recite, but we think she’s different when out at night.” Seventeen PEN NET IAN ■ —g—JK — ELIZABETH COOK Commercial Course. You may think by her name that this miss serves lunches to the sen- iors, but she is just one of our happy- go-lucky seniors. Although nature did check her growth a little too soon, her great ability was not harmed. DARRELL REASH Academic Course. Will you please state that again? I didn’t just quite understand. Here is our radio brains. Darrell gets so interested in his radio maga- zines that he forgets to study his lessons. ALICE BLUE Commercial Course. “She is jes’ the quiet kind Whose nature never varies. Alice blew (Blue) down to Green- ville four years ago and we’re sorry that now she must blow back. VERLE BORTZ Bobbie Commercial Course. Verle is a young lady of definite ideas, but fails to express them. She is very quiet, but her aggressiveness is sure to win her place of renown in whatever she undertakes. Eighteen GLADYS RICKERT—“Ricky Commercial Course; Hopper’s Club. A worth-while friend and a willing worker we have in this quiet member of our class. Just about the time she ought to go to bed, she feels like get- ting up. JAMES McMURRY Commercial Course; Baseball. •Jim or Red—whichever seems best. It makes no difference to him; Just give him a baseball, a gun or a dog. And he will manage the rest.” MYRTLE MOSSMAN Commercial Course. Evidently loves school. If you would like to know someone who is everlastingly on the job, get acquainted with Myrtle. Though she lives some distance from town, rain or shine, snow or hail, hot or cold, spring or winter, you could see her hurrying to the house of torture, seek- ing knowledge. FLORENCE JOSLIN Academic Course; Orchestra; Ta Ta Ponchen Club. Her fiddle is her charm.” Now Florence is one of our Seniors. Whose marks are never red. If she doesn’t have her lessons. You can blame it all on Fred.” Nineteen MARION RILEY General Course; Springtime. “She's witty and wise. With a laugh in her eyes; There’s a shine in her face. Like the sun from the skies. VELMA REID Commercial Course; Class Artist; Company Square Club. Better be dead than out of style. Besides the fact that Velma carries out her daily duty in showing every- one the various changes in style dur- ing the night, she is a good worker in school. She is always on the job when there is work to be done. AUSTIN HANK Academic Course. Rather an ambitious chap. The Senior class has one fellow. Whose name is Austin Hank. Who is a real self starter. So his teachers are not cranks.” AGNES STOLL—“Stollie Commercial Course. Was never known to lose her temper. Is always the same sweet maid; Penn High will be lost without her, During the whole of the next decade. Twenty PENNERIAN LOUISE M.CGRANAHAN Commercial Course; Honor Stu- dent; Wlde-a-Wake Club. “On her cheek is the rose of spring. That’s no: made up of paint. We know this to be the truth. ’Cause Jerry says it ‘aint’. ” Louise has received enough teach- ing from her teachers. She is going to try it herself soon. BENJAMIN BROWN—“Bus” Academic Course ; Orchestra ’20- ’21-’22. O! that she could see him now—her curly-headed boy. The time he was not helping the Staff he could be found at the type- writer composing for future scholars to bring to class the Heroic Couplet, from Brown. “He is already a male man. but we expect Uncle Sam to be using him soon.” FLORENCE BOYER Commercial Course. Here’s a girl light-hearted and gay. Whether at work or whether at play; And of her some day people will say. If only all girls had her winning HAZEL MILLS Commercial Course. “She does not take G. H. S. so badly. If she does come from Hadley.” Hazel has been with us only one year. But already we have found that she does her best in all her work. Twenty one PENNERIAN 25 KATHRYN MORTON Academic Course; Hoppers Club. K is for Kathryn who roaming does go. Down to see Pittsburgh’s great big buildings. Or was it the buildings? Just the same lie’s all right Kay. Good luck to you. Kathryn is one of those girls with the enviable disposition, never showing for more than a minute the signs of anger, a girl that will surely leave a noticeable vacancy in old P. H. S. MYRTIE DIMMICK Academic Course; Athletic Editor: Basketball Varsity ’21-’22-’23; Cheer Leader ’22; Honor Bright; Basket- ball Manager ’22; Odd Seven Club. Here, there and everywhere is “Jim.” The Pennerian got there owing to her worry and work. She has a guiding spirit in Thiel, and as a team they sure can make things hum. Twenty-two HARRY McELHAXEY General Course. Every time he came to school he traveled twelve miles. This shows de- termination which we all realize he has. Harry is a supporter of the Green ville-Conneaut Lake Bus Line. He is also a little more interested in the Junior class than he is in the Senior. GERALDINE CLYDE—“Gerry” Academic Course; Hoppers Club; Springtime; Kidnapped. Geraldine is always bubbling over with joy. She takes time to study once in awhile, but spends a great amount of her time entertaining com- pany in the parlor. RUTH SPENCER Commercial Course; Comonalong Club; Class B. B. ’22- 23. Coming to school late never seems to worry Ruth. She does her best whenever there is something that has to he done. Our advice would me. “Send him home earlier.” WILLARD DILLEY Academic Course. Willard is noted tor his hard plug- ging and persistence which makes us think that there is joy in hard work. He used to he a had boy we think, for one of his playmates once said in his prayer, “Lord bless everyone hut Wil- lard.” He has changed some. FLORENCE FRITZ Commercial Course; Ta Ta Ponch- en Club. The stars of heaven are not more true. Than this girl as a friend. Ever a worker, a planner, a helper. From the beginning to the end.” RUTH GRUBER Commercial Course; Honor Stu- dent; Ta Ta Ponchen Club; Honor Bright. Ask her a question and you will get enough information to write a hook Ruth does not believe in whispering her recitations, hut speaks loud enough so that all snoozers will brace up an 1 take notice. Twenty three ■ FRANCES FITCH Academic Course; Springtime; Class Secretary ’22-’23; Comonalong; Company Square Club; Kidnapped; The Fire Prince; Seven Eleven Club. “Dainty, pretty, kind and sweet. Such a singer can’t be beat.” Fran is never seen without a smile. She pretends that she does not care for the boys, but we just wonder why she always hurries out of school at noon. FRED BLACK Academic Course; Honor Student; Class B. B.; Glee Club; Assistant Editor; Honor Bright. One of the best pals in the school. Honor student, fond of all kinds of sports, especially swimming. Fond as he is of the briny deep we often see him going for a little “Waid.” MARY IFFERT Commercial Course; Ta Ta Ponch- en Club. Mary is another peppy addition to our class. One would think her quiet but. no, ’tis not true. Everyone agrees that she is quite an asset in any crowd, and we cannot blame her many suitors for “falling hard.” We at- tribute this to her cheery smile and gay dimples. FAY CALVIN Commercial Course. This lassie with the rosy cheeks. Has always a smile for all she meets. Fay’s sincerity and kindness has won the respect of many and those sparkling brown eyes tell the rest of the story. Twenty four FENNERIAN MARY STRAUB Commercial Course. She was born when hut a babe. She said she was going to be married on her wedding day. Yes, this may all be, but she has sure played her part in the Class of '23. ISABELLE SIMPSON Commercial Course. This girl is admired by one and all. Her friends are beyond a count, We can tell by the way she digs and works That to great things she will some day mount. BELVA CALLAHAN Academic Course.

FREDA FOULK—“Skinney” Commercial Course. Quiet? Yes, but with such a pleas- ing way about her that we feel her presence without a word from her. Always ready for a good time at the expense of anyone. Twenty-five PENNERIAN EVELYN HART General Course; Springtime; The Fire Prince. The stars of the Great Dipper had a quarrel and in the midst of the con- flict a piece was knocked from the handle.

A. ’23; Springtime: Seven Eleven Club; Honor Bright: Kidnapped; Bob White; The P’ire Prince. When a man’s a man he must re- semble Glenn. The class of ’23 could not have done without his looks, voice, brains, and iriendliness. We can see him ever a success; for everyone falls for red hair. BERTHA MERRITT—“Bur” Commercial Course. “Next in the line is Bertha Merritt. Who has completed her four year session.

Her chief attraction is her winning smile which taileth never. RUTH MUTTER Academic Course; Class B. B. ’22- ’23; Capt. and Manager ’23; Com- pany Square Club. Wit and humor belong to genius alone. Dignified, fair-haired, popular—and added to these we hear that you’re an excellent cook. Remember that the way to win a man is through his stomach. Ruth is indeed a girl worth knowing and a friend worth keeping. Twenty-seven PENNERIAN RUTH BENNINGHOFF—Pappitsz Academic Course; Secy, of A. A. ’23; StafT; Seven Eleven Club; Com- onalong; Company Square. If everyone boosted for Penn High theway Ruth does, we’d actually have a school that would suit the faculty. It keeps Ruth so busy refusing or breaking dates that she sometimes forgets to get her lessons. Who’s next Ruth? PAUL JOHNSON Academic Student; Vice Pres. ’22- ’23; Varsity B.

ETHEL KNAPPENBERGER Academic Course; Ta Ta Ponchen Club.

I talked with Mr. Hunt last night And what do you think he said? If I have any time tonight I’m going to watch my Fred. Because I heard Mr. Joslin say Some boy would go home half dead.

Thirty-one EVELYN O’BRIEN Commercial Course; Honor Stu- dent; Honor Bright; Springtime; Hopper Club. “A girl that is born with red hair Will have red hair until she dies.” At times it w ould appear that Evelyn takes life very serious, while at other times she seems to take life as a glad song. And we have noticed that these viewpoints change Just as her mind changes between the ser- ious and the less important things of life should be practice by everyone. ALBERT LUTTON Academic Course; Honor Student; Les Deux Sourds; Kidnapped; Class B. B. 22-’23; Farmers B. B. 21-22-23. Studious above all things. Here is a young man who is not a big noise around Penn High—not a big whirlwind but a cool breeze. Albert is the one who comes to the rescue of our teachers’ waning faith in humanity by answering upon the difficult questions which seem to have shocked the rest of us. Thirty-two DOROTHA BROWN— Dotty” Commercial Student. Always ready for anything. Her life was gentle and the elements so mixed in her that nature might stand up to the world and say.

GLENN BECKMAN Commercial Course; Orchestra. A little learning is dangerous.” Glenn is one of “those kind of fel- low's” you read about in fictitious stories. We mean by this that he is different from the ordinary. Thirty-three PENNERJAN Class History, 1919-1923 Four short years ago the new school building. Penn High, saw its first Freshman class of one hundred and seventy pupils pass within its doors and into its halls of learning. We were all inspired with the same high ideals and freshmanlike, we were all entirely ignorant of the difficulties we must overcome if we might stand on that pinnacle of success which we wished to attain. The next year we came back as Sophomores and we felt that we had grown two feet during vacation. It was in this year that we began to make a reputation for our- selves. We went to our tasks anxiously, willingly and hopefully, but some lost courage as we traveled the long, narrow, bumpy road and left us to take up an easier pathway in life. After an enjoyable vacation of pleasure and rest from our year’s work as Sopho- mores, we returned to begin the third year’s work. This was our great year. We thought we were mighty big. On September sixth we organized our class and elected the following officers to carry out our plans and our ideas: Glenn Reznor. president: Paul Johnson, vice president: Frances Fitch, secretary; and Katherine Baer, treasurer. We need say nothing of their work and service. “That which is done wfell will never be complained against. Work has her own rewards.” There have been no complaints. They are receiving their rewards. We chose as our class colors blue and gray, and for our class motto, “We will either find a way or make one.” During the year we had a benefit show, “Wallace Reid in Two Minutes to Go,” which brought us great returns; two ice cream suppers, during Music Week which were held in the community room. Then as it had been the custom for years before for the Juniors to have a Hallowe’en party we decided to keep up the custom. We could not have the gymnasium, but that troubled us little. We used the community room instead and everyone enjoyed just as much the pretzels, apples, pumpkin pie and the sufficient, though not over-sufficient amount of cider (sweet). Next we had a picnic at Conneaut Lake. This was attended by a majority of the class, as may be supposed, for we never did things in halves. And last, the greatest event of the year, was the Junior-Senior banquet. It certainly can not be excelled. The gym was beautifully decorated in a checker-board pattern with squares of blue and gray, and gold and wiiite. A large May pole was placed in the center of the gym. Gas-filled balloons were placed attractively around the hall and added much to the decorations. Baer’s Buddies furnished music for the evening. And now we. as Seniors, are proud of the fact that we are the largest class that has ever been graduated in the history of the Greenville High School. A lecture course of five numbers was secured from the White Entertainment Bureau. We had a Christmas party at the Moose Hall which was a howling success. The hall was decorated with Christmas colors and ornaments. A large Christmas tree, bur- dened with gifts for all those present, was placed in the center of the hall. The enter- tainment consisted of a song. Homesick, by James Heilman. During the second chorus of the song the All Star Dancers, Myrtie Dimmick. Kitty Baer, Julie Hough. Dorothy Newell, Evelyn O’Brien and Evelyn Hart, dressed in boys’ clothes, gave a clever dance. Following this w e were honored with a solo by our beloved president Glenn Reznor. The refreshments consisted of punch and nabiscoes. Near Easter time the Senior Girls’ Basketball team gave a dance which was a very great success. At the time of the football game at Sharpsville a number of our girls hiked to that place and created a sensation before, after and during the game. And to top off this career our class play, directed by Miss Bacher, is surely going to be the best ever. All too soon our high school days are ending, and as our ship clears the harbor and starts on the rolling sea of life, we are certain the principles we have learned here will be applied in a larger sphere; and the wforld we hope, a little better because of the class of 1923. AGNES STOLL Thirty-four EENNERLAN Class Prophecy MEMORIES “Oh! now I know I’ve found something to amuse grandpa,” exclaimed Jack, as he jumped from the chair on which he had been standing looking through some old books he had found on a shelf there. He ran through the long hall of his beautiful home and into the library where a white-haired man was sitting gazing into the fire—perhaps seeing pictures of people he used to know and love. Who knows? “Grandpa, look what I found on that little shelf in your room. It was away down in the bottom of it but I found it, and brought it down to you. What is it. Grandpa?” Why my dear little Jack, that is a year book of the class of 23,” said grandpa after examining it. The class of which I was president. Those were the good old days. I remember them well though many years have passed since then Wait a minute Jack and I’ll show you the picture of my classmates, those that I knew and thought of long before I decided to come to Boston to take up engineering work. Little did I think then I would be so prosperous.” “Oh. grandpa, do tell me something about each one of them. Where are they now? What are they doing? Do you ever hear from any of them? Why didn’t you tell me of them before? Is grandma’s picture in here too?” “No. Your grandmother wasn’t in this class: she lived in Sharon at that time. We were not married then. Well, sonny, we’ll start at the beginning and I’ll tell you all I know of my dear classmates, if you’ll promise me not to get tired, and not go to sleep.” “I won't get tired, grandpa; and I won’t go to sleep. Let’s start right now.” “Well. I see first the picture of my old pal Sam Aldenderfer. We have become sep- arated through the years. The last I heard of him he was giving a concert in Philadel- phia. He is a trick violinist and has proven as good as Crawford Adams. I remember we had the latter on our lecture course back in P. H. S. in ’23.” “What is trick violinist grandpa? Does he play tricks on the violin? “No. no, Jackie, he makes the violin talk.” “Oh!” “Then I remember well Joe Allen. He is now running an artificial ice factory in Porto Rico, and has become very wealthy.” “Who’s this grandpa? Who are all these? Tell me about them next, will you?” “Well, you remember when I got my glasses. Jacky? I stopped one day at Dr. Hogue’s; he was out and I didn't want to wait so I decided to go on home and go down to see him some time again. As I went up the street I saw this sign; Miss Beckstein, Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Specialist. I thought I would stop to hear what she had to say. perhaps she could give me glasses. But can you imagine my surprise when I found out that this specialist was an old classmate, none other than Martha Beckstein?” “Who’s this pretty girl, grandpa?” “Oh, that’s Ruth Benninghoff. She was a strict adherer to student government at Penn High. Through her wonderful character she has now the office of Speaker of the House and is as much of a favorite as Old Joe Cannon was in those days. This is Florence Fritz, lawyer Fritz now. You know her Jackie; she is our lawyer.” “Yes. I know her. She is the lady that came here when you made your will; isn’t she?” “Yes. That day after my will was drawn up we started to talk of our school days. She told me tha: Verle Bortz was a dancing teacher, and had opened a school in Shenango, which is now quite a large city; and that Olivia Bost had married and con- tinually henpecked her husband. However, her son is a great football star, being quarterback on the Harvard team. A few days before I talked with Florence, she had been driving through the country in her new roadster, and needing some water she stopped at the dearest little cottage nestled among trees and shrubberies. As she walked up the winding path towards the door she noticed a basket of little kittens. They were so cute that she couldn't help stopping to watch them a few minutes. Almost immediately she heard someone say. Thirty-five ‘Why Florence! She looked up and was surprised to see Myrtle Dlmmlck. She lived in the dear little cottage, her only company being her many cats and kittens. She had. however, kept track of many of her old school friends and told Florence of them and Florence in turn told me. “Ruth Gruber has taken up reformation work. She has established a school for illiterate prisoners, and has helped many hack to the straight and narrow path. “Eleanor Hart, our dear Eleanor, has become a Senator and is proving to all of what she is made, while her sister Evelyn, teaches in Miss Bacher’s place back in old P. H. S. Benjamin Brown teaches Civics there; Hazel Mills has Krall’s place teaching Chemistry; and Louise McGranahan has Harry Smith’s place as Music Instructor. “Howard Green has become a champion horseshoer, since horses are a thing of the past. “Mary Orr, who is now Mrs. Hough, with her husband has taken up scientific farm- ing and their farm, due chiefly to Mary’s efforts, is the envy of the people for miles around. “When last heard of James Osborne had started to build a bridge across th Atlantic. It is not yet completed, but if it can be done James will do it. “Elizabeth Patton opened a stunning millinery shop on Fifth Avenue. “When last heard of Evelyn O’Brien and Kathryn Morton had a hot-dog stand at the Mercer Fair. They kept this during fair time and in between times they gave lectures, traveling to all parts of the United States.’’ “Doesn’t anyone have a candy shop or an ice cream parlor, grandpa?’’ “Yes, you bet. Here is Bessie Van Dyke; she is running a very attractive candy store in Brooklyn. ‘The Chocolate Drop.’ Her chocolate drops are the favorites and are known in almost every city in the United States. And Bertha Wagenman has established a new ice cream parlor in Greenville. I hear she has a flourishing trade.” “Who is this girl grandpa?” “It is Katherine Baer; she is teaching shorthand and bookkeeping at Grove City Commercial College. She gained all the necessary knowledge at Penn High.” “Is that all you know grandpa? I don’t think that is very much. I couldn’t have gone to sleep if I had wanted to.” “No, no. my son. that is not all my any means; but that is all the information Florence gave me. You remember when I took my trip to New York about two years ago? There I met Ruth Blair who was playing with the “Follies.” She told me that Alice Blue had gained fame by her short story writing, her latest book being. ‘Driven to the Altar. And that Helen Button had established a Domestic Science School at Osgood. “While there I also had the pleasure of hearing Helen Bolivar, who has become a great public speaker. I only managed to talk with her a few minutes, but long enough for her to tell me that Frances Ash, our peppy Fran, has won great praise because of her charity work. She is a nun known to all as Sister ‘Maria.’ ” “Didn’t any of these people ever leave the United States grandpa?” ‘‘Oh, yes. the class of '23 is well represented all over the world. Fred Black, our worthy assistant editor then, is now a well known artist; the last I heard of him he was in Paris known there by the name of Eugene de Larvarden. He expected to start for the Orient soon and, no doubt, is there now posing as a Japanese artist. “Mildred Pressler is a great traveler. She. the last I heard, had just returned from the wilds of Africa and had many interesting tales to tell. “Gladys Rickert was also a great traveler, but in her travels she met and married a duke and has now settled down in Italy. “Willard Dilley married Duchess Constantine and now is a power in the English Parliament. “Dorothy Driscoll with a few friends decided some years ago to travel to Egypt. They stopped at Cairo. After staying there a few days Dorothy decided to hire an Arab for a guide, and take the necessary help to insure her safety for a journey out across the desert. When Dorothy decides anything it’s a go. Accordingly the next day they started on the desired journey, against the advice of Dorothy’s friends. They had gone as far as they cared to go, and were returning when they were overtaken by a hand of hostile Arabs and Dorothy was taken captive and handed over to the chief man of the tribe. Her guide escaped, however, and returning to Cairo told of her capture. Jesse Thirty-six Crosby, her faithful admirer, started immediately with many brave followers and Dor- othy was soon among her dear friends, none the worse for her little adventure. “I heard some time ago that Paul Johnson has a sea fishery in Brazil. Myrtle Moss- man is running a summer resort in Iceland, and Robert Loutzenhiser is a golf instructor in Persia. “I think that is all of our class who are abroad, except for Jennie Christy who, after reigning as a favorite belle for two years, finally married a Prince and is still happy. Isn’t that all grandpa? There aren’t any more are there?” No. that isn’t ail yet. there are a few more. Now Jackv, you look as though you were sleepy.” But I am not. Go on.” All right sonny, don’t be impatient. At the last picture show I attended I recog- nized the star as an old classmate. Velma Kelly. She was playing under the name Marguerite McQueen. Her acting was very good. If you remember Jack, about four years ago I visited Greenville. At that time I learned about a good many of my classmates, for many of them 'stayed in the old town. However, some things may have changed since then. Then Evelyn Evans was a strike leader of the workers of a copper mine there.” Was that pretty girl a strike leader, grandpa?” Yes, my son. and a good one. Ruth Spencer was editing an evening paper; the good telephone service for which Greenville was noted was due to Agnes Stoll: Bertha Merritt was a graduate nurse and her services were continually in demand; Edwin Smith was the president of the city’s leading bank; Paul Simons had a large and prosperous farm near Greenville, and Edson Mitchell was a cop in Sharon.” Oh. who is this grandpa?” That? That is Warren Mitchell. He has published a new hand-book that is now being used as authority in English classes. We used Wooley’s. Here is Dorothy Mizner. She was, and no doubt still is teaching elocution at Thiel College. Marion Riley has a large department store there and Louise Lininger is cashier of Woolworth’s V and X store. Pearl Shannon has been married almost fifty years. She is still living in Green- ville and expects to celebrate her golden wedding soon.” Who is this grandpa?” That is Albert Mathay; he has written a new Physics book that is being used throughout the United States. This girl, sonny, is Florence Joslin; she has established a club called ‘Lonesome John’s Friendship Club.’ It is a club for bachelors. While in Greenville I had a chat with James Heilman. He is still attending Thiel.” Oh. but grandpa, how' can he still be going to school? He is an old man now.” Yes, sonny, but one is never too old to learn. This seems to be his motto also. He is still gaining knowledge at any rate. He told me that Paul Hawes was the superin- tendent of the schools of Mercer County; Gerald McClenahan was a guide for travelers who desired to cross the Appalachian Mountains; Edith Hill has become a noted stenographer; Julia Hough, president of the W. C. T. U.. and that Lucille Hintz was agent for a new grade of hose that are manufactured by the Lutton, Mc.Murray Hosiery Company. Marie Moyer married a very wealthy man and settled down in Greenville. Florence Kitch kept a novelty store there. I had the pleasure of going through it. It was really very wonderful. Elizabeth Cook was leader of a jazz orchestra which was very popular just then in that part of the country. Louise Fitch played the piano. Kathryn Driscoll the saxa- phone. and Madeline Steen was violinist. So many of our class were in it that they called it the Blue and Gray. Those were our class colors. Geraldine Clyde, contrary to all our thoughts, was an old maid. She was. when I was in Greenville, matron of the Greenville Hospital. Alice Cook is a barber and Oshall Pi 1 gram a painless dentist.” Thirty-«ever But grandpa. I didn’t think Greenville was very big. You told me a long time ago it wasn’t.” “Perhaps I did but Greenville has grown since then and even if it hadn’t I think many would have stayed there. It really is a fascinating place.” Who is this grandpa? Doesn’t she have pretty eyes?” Yes. she has. That is Fay Calvin. She is an artist’s model now and her friend Belva Callahan is running a beauty shop.” What is a beauty shop, grandpa?” Tha is a place where they make ugly people look pretty and unnatural, and pretty people still prettier.” Oh! Then who is this?” “That is Dorothy Brown; she is a designer of costumes. Her costumes are very wonderful. This is all the information I received at Greenville, but I went from Greenville to Grove City, if you remember. There I met Isabelle Simpson. She has a beautiful greenhouse not far from the Commercial College there. While talking with her she told me that Florence Boyer had become a great prima donna: Mary Straub the champion typist of the world; that Ruth Mutter had acquired the place of Governor of Pennsyl- vania; and that Austin Hank was now a famous movie director. Olive Stevenson, with the help of her sister Luella, had established a home for aged people on the outskirts of the city so I decided to go to see them. They told me of a number of their friends. Irma Roberts has become a famous aviatrix; Darrel Reasch a famous architect, known all over the world for his great works; and Marie Hoobler is now. and has been for the past ten years, a Dean at Slippery Rock Normal School.” Oh. but grandpa, where is this pretty girl now? She is with a prominent Grand Opera company and is a favorite as might well be imagined. It is of course Eleanor Horne. And this girl is Mary Cowan. She is quite wealthy, due to her invention of a hair dye, which when applied, gives the shade of her own beautiful tresses.” What is this man doing now, grandpa?” He has established a select school for girls in Connecticut. It is Glenn Chess.” Oh. but why didn’t a girl do that. That’s funny, why did he establish a girl’s school?” It does seem strange, nevertheless it’s the truth. This girl. Mary Iffert. is now the basketball coach of the champion girls’ team of the United States; and this fellow down here, Frederick Hunt, is now Postmaster General.” “Are there many more grandpa?” No. just a few. mind now and don’t go to sleep. Well hurry won’t you grandpa? Who’s this?” “That is Frances Fitch, she has become Judge of the Supreme Court and surely is a good one. This girl is Freda Foulk and has taken Hoyles place as authority in card playing. “Kthel Knappenberger is starring in the picture ’How to Win a Husband.’ It is really the story of her own life. Lyle McDowell is acting under the name of Chauncey Davenport.” Why, I’ve seen him.” Yes. Jack. I imagine you have, for he is the world’s most famous actor. Harry McElhaney is manufacturing a face lotion, and guarantees it not only to keep the roses in, but allows them to show. Roland Hunt has established a dancing school for sub-debs and here is his sister, Lura, who has taken up story writing and has published a book, ‘Sure Road to Success’.” And last but not least is Mabel Key. who has become a riding teacher in Texas. I remember her as Zenobia in Springtime. She sure knew how to handle a husband. Well Jack, are you satisfied now? That is all.” No answer from Jack. Jack, are you asleep?” No answer again, evidently Jack sleeps. Well, it has done me a great deal of good to review days of old. and think of my many classmates and the class activities. I am quite sure I remember them all, for who ever forgets those school days? Quite the happiest days of the whole life time.” And now. dear reader, let us leave grandpa alone before the fire, dreaming and seeing his dream pictures in the bright, glowing embers.

Our football season was good considering the new ma- terial. The boys worked hard and won praise for their will- ingness to try anything that came along. We won one out of seven games, and tied one. Next year we hope for better success. Our basketball season was fine. The girls are again the champions of western Pennsylvania, due to their hard work and their mascot, the Black Cat. This year the girls' team played girls’ rules. They were coached by Nora Lynch. The boys' basketball team was not so successful as the girls’, but they did their “darnedest.” Who didn't like to see Benny go over someone’s head and see Red's hair stand on end when the team was loosing? Luther Kuder coached the boys’ team. Something new was done this year in the high school. A season ticket for basketball was issued for $1.50 which in- cluded admission to twelve games.

S......... _l!t PENNERIAN Foot Ball Personnel PETERSON—Pete (Captain) Half Back—Pete always played a good game. Al- though he had three ribs broken in the first game he played the rest of the season, and only missed one game. Whenever Greenville was in a tight place Pete could be seen slapping the boys on the back. He always kept up the spirit for G. H. S. PATTERSON—Red (Captain-elect) Full Back Red was our full back and a power- ful one. When there was yards to be made Red was the one to make them. He was also a wonderful man to back up the line. He always stopped them. SNYDER Scrubby; Half Back—Scrubby played a very consistent game but due to his bad shoulder he was not able to play in all of the games. Nevertheless he did his share w'hile he was in. SULLIVAN—Tom; Quarter Back—Tom was a small man. but he played his posi- tion well and was always where he was needed the most. NICKERSON—Nick; Half Back- Nick was picked for one of the all-county teams which speaks for itself; and G. H. S. is lucky to have him for another season. PATTERSON—Karl; Half Back—Pat had his shoulder broken in practice, but he had shown lots of football ability and grit. He will also wear the Blue and Gold an- other season and great things are expected of him. LITTLE—Bud; End. Tackle and Half Back—Bud was the only man on the team who could play every position; and he played them all well. He always played hard and was an old standby. He could always he counted on to do just a little bit more than his part. SIMONS—Pickle; End Pickle played a wonderful game at end and was almost sure of his tackles which came his way. At Sharpsville he had an awful time trying to convince the constable that it was Greenville’s ball. ENGLEBACH—Bob; Tackle—Bob was the big man of the team and he always used his size to a good advantage. He was always in the game up to his ears. He also held down the position of full back at Franklin and did it well. BROWN—Apple; Tackle—Apple was a regular steam engine when it came to tearing through the enemy’s line. He could always be counted on for a lot; he gave his best. He played the whole season with a broken nose, which shows that he had real Blue and Gold spirit. MITCHELL—Ed; Guard. Babe was one of the men who opened up holes for the hackfield and when the play was called through his side of the line he did his best to make it go through. BABCOCK—Hogan; Guard—Hogan was always seen coming up from the bottom of the pile, and was always one of the first down under punts. He was a very aggressive player. MITCHELL—Sitting; Center—Sitting was the pivot man and one that was hard to beat. He seldom, if ever, made a bad pass and was a very strong man on the de- fensive as well as the offensive. LINN—Apple; End—Apple was a new man this year and improved rapidly during the whole season. He was never down until the whistle blew. He was a good tackier and put all he had into the game. Fifty xeve:i PENNERJAN — ----- ee Foot Ball Review Although Greenville High did not have such a successful season, according to the number of games won and lost, it developed a fast team. We were late in starting pre- liminary training, but due to coach Earner's tireless efforts, we were soon training with all our hearts and eager for the time to come when we would meet our first op- ponent, Meadville. We played Meadville at home before a large crowd of rooters, and every man tried his best to walk off the field with a victory for the first game; but the opponent’s team consisted of veterans and a large amount of beef. During the first quarter of the game Peterson, our captain, was injured, getting three broken ribs, but he played most of the game. Later on Sullivan, our quarter, and Babcock and Mitchell, our guards, were injured, and almost a new team was put on the field. During the last quarter Meadville crossed the Blue and Gold goal line for the only score of the game. We played at Sharpsville the following Saturday and due more to off form and hard luck we lost the bacon again. Sharpsville could not gain much during the first quarter, but they drop-kicked a goal at a very difficult angle, and soon followed it with a touch- down. This put the fight in our team and we received the kick-off and started to take the ball down the field. We had the ball on the one yard line and four downs to take it across, but everyone was so sure of the score that someone fumbled the ball and Sharpsville recovered. They punted to us and the half ended with the ball in the center of the field. The next quarter Greenville scored a touchdown but tailed to kick goal. We were unable to score again, but we kept Sharpsville from scoring. Our next game w-as with Sharon, our old opponent, and w e all played our best and scored a touchdown the first quarter, but Sharon began their fight and kep: us from scoring again, while they scored a touchdown, tieing the score. In the third quarter both learns were determined that the other should not score again and neither did. The game ended in a tie score 6-6 in favor of Greenville. At Grove City the following Saturday we met our Waterloo. Grove City started with a rush and their fast team was loo much for Greenville. They scored touchdown after touchdown. But it was no disgrace to be defeated by a team like Grove City’s. We met and defeated the fast Oil City team ihe following Saturday, for the first time in seven years. Red Patterson’s line plunging was wonderful, in fact all the team played a wonderful game. Ellw'ocd City was next on our list. We played them Armistice Day and were ds- feated by one touchdowm. Greenville had ihe ball on the yard line twice, but failed to score. Our last game was at Franklin. We were defeated. Patterson was not able to play so Englebaugh took his place at full back. But w'e held them to a low score. It was in this game that Benny Kottraba did the punting in the last quarter. A good season is expected next year.

Sixty-one PENNER1AN Basket Ball Review Every so often the Fates that be so decree that a school in a small city shall lose all its old “varsity men. This was especially true of tin basketball team this year of Greenville 11 i rli School Boys’ Team. With a veteran team last year, a team that had played together four years, the question of develop- ment was not seriously considered and in fact is not done in many small schools. The result was that Greenville High School, a potential factor in county athletics last year, was left with two substitutes, and the balance all new men. A team which was to combat the other teams—and most of them veteran ones at that. In all athletics it requires a good deal of time for any new material to develop to a standard as high as has been set by their predecessors. This too, is unfair. The veteran team with all its glory is envied by the school—victory is theirs. The nest year comes and again the expectancy of victory. Defeat instead replaces victory, but glorious defeat. A new team, with just as good spirit, just as much courage, is bravely fighting against overwhelming odds to uphold the glorious record. Greenville High team this year was fortunate and unfortunate; accidents took their toll, and yet the nucleus of a splendid team remained. Team play was developed this year to a marked degree, and it will continue. A team's future depends mostly on this. High school's team, though small in stature, made up in fighting spirit. Kottraba, Ritter. Sullivan. Patterson, Peterson, Johnson, Hart, and Englebach were all fighters. A team that was not only a credit to the school, but to Greenville, as was evidenced by the enthusiasm shown at the games. The future of basketball in Penn High is promising, with the material at hand. The girls' team should continue, and the hoys’ team will show to a good extent this coming year. They will be steadier, more consistent, and the writer prophesies a brilliant future. Greenville teams admit defeat, but they do not go down to defeat with- out a struggle, and glorious defeat is always a credit. Sixty tuo PENNERIAN GIRLS’ BASKETBALL LIXK-IT K.

Sixty-four PENNERIAN Girls’ Basket Ball Personnel HELEN VOORHIES—“Chubby “A forward is horn, not made,” and we have the good fortune to possess Voorhies, a little forward who is here, there, and everywhere- all the time. Besides being man- ager and forward. Helen captained the learn which she announces as follows: KATHRYN BAIRD—“Kay” Much was prophesied for Kay and more was realized. We know of no all-state team chosen, but we do remember the twenty field goals Kay scored in two games against a proclaimed all-state guard. Her fame is known and with two more years to play her reward will come. Kathryn is also an honor student. CLARA TEMPLETON—Clara Clara appeared the first time this season at center. When the whistle was blown for the ball to be played at center, she rose higher and higher until she tipped that ball Jus; before the other center. Clara didn't have the chance to prove that she could play forward just as well as center, but she has two more years to do so. When one thinks of Clara he naturally remembers GRACE KREMIS—“Peggy” “Peggv is our ninety-three pounds of speed involved in side-center. Grace came with Clara’ and has another year to stay. It is no: because she is small that it was hard to see her. but sight could not follow her speed. If the ball was in the center section and Clara didn’t have it—locale it and with it you knew was Kremis. Grace also played forward and is an honor student. MYRTIE DIMMICK—“Jim” Myrtie played varsity guard but leaves us this year. Had we needed another side- center Myrtle could have shown that she had learned more than just to guard. Myrtle’s failure to appear with the team during the mid-season was due to her absence from school; but she came back to it to give her best as long as possible. SARA WELLS— Red” Sara guarded and no one ever did it better. This is her second varsity season and she has two more to play. Her good work is shown in her opponent’s low scores. Sara was rewarded for her gcod work by being elected captain for the coming season. She is also an honor student. OLIVIA BOST—“Tibi” Olivia as guard never me; her equal in an opponent of equal size. But Olivia is one of the few who can play three positions and play them well. And so one saw her at side-center, at forward, and at guard as the circumstance required. Olivia graduates this year as an honor student. DOROTHY NEWEL— Dot” “Dot” guarded. If she didn’t have the ball her opponent was without it also. She was noticed as one who could move with speed in any way after the ball and be graceful always. WINIFRED LOUTZENHISER—“Win” When a plaver for anv position was needed, Win” always did her best. She is one who worked hard and did good all season, but not so many opportunities to show thers. But with anther year the public will have a better chance to know her. “ in is an honor student. Sixty fi. e PENNEIOAN - - - . - Girls’ Basket Ball Review The girls' basketball season opened with a game with Transfer. This proved to be very one-sided, but the opposing team is to be complimented on its good sportsmanship in defeat. The Alumni were next played; another vic- tory resulted. Farrell, the next and first real opposition was easily defeated though at times their pass work showed careful practice. Xtoneboro next was defeated, but in this team was met girls who were playing basketball with many odds against them, and for which they deserve much credit. The first game abroad was with Oil City an old rival, who played good basketball, but were beaten by a large score. The following night Central High of Erie was defeated. In this game Greenville met a team representing a large school and a school offring many superior advantages in athletic work. Farrell was played the second time at Farrell, but again showed little opposition. Edinboro Normal sent a team that displayed by much the best basketball seen to that date on the Greenville floor—the game was close till the latter part, when Greenville showed what they could do and defeated them by a large score. Greenville's playing in this game was the best seen the entire season. Stoneboro was again met abroad and again easily defeated. Cp to this point all had been easy victory, but now an Ohio team was met which defeated Greenville with not a small score. This was at Niles. Ohio. The first half of the game was played using modified boys' rules, but Greenville held them about even. The latter half was played with girls' rules and the third quarter was about tin same—Greenville once leading. In the last quarter, however, Niles played basketball, not better than Greenville had played, but far better than she played that night. The game went to Niles who deserved it. Oil City was again played, this time at home, but this time Greenville played with a desire to redeem herself, and she did with a large score in her favor. Sharon was met at Sharon, a game which was close, with Greenville leading at the end. and the next week when Sharon played at home the game proved to be one-sided with the same victor. Edinboro was played abroad and easily defeated. Then a series of games were planned with Edgewood for state championship. The first played at Edgewood resulted in a victory for that team. The game was fast, but Green- ville at times displayed poor playing. A return game was played at home, Greenville winning by a large score. A third deciding game could not be ar- ranged, though Greenville wished very much to be given a chance on a neutral floor with a neutral referee. So Greenville closed its season not with laurels of state championship, their main goal not reached, but always with the desire to “Play up! play up! and play the game.

We look backward with mingled feelings of delight in pleasures encountered and of sorrow in parting with faithful teachers and true friends. We think again with amazement of our entrance, as freshmen, and of our sophomore and junior years; how we gradually took a hand in the school activities. Next, our minds turn to the future. We feel Ihe responsibility from the fact that within a few years we must replace the men and women of today in every walk of life. The present generation has accomplished and is accomplishing marvelous things in mechanics, science, and business expansion. We must not allow these things to waste, but must learn the fundamentals of this generation and strive for still higher things. Some of our number will probably complete their schooling with graduat- ing from Penn High. But each one will expect to get some useful employment. Others will enter college with some particular purpose in mind. Through the special instruction that they receive and through their own individual efforts, they may accomplish this purpose. These college graduates will be able to occupy the higher positions in life. Whether we. as high school graduates, enter college or go out into life to make our way, we are again entering upon a Freshman year. Sixty-nine Interscholasric Meets At institute last fall, plans for an inter-scholastic meet among the Mercer County High Schools culminated in the appointment of a committee to arrange meets. These plans had their origin at a dinner in July, at which the county superintendent and several school officers were present. At first, plans were made for three meets and a final roundup. These plans were later changed 10 two meets and a final roundup. In the first meet, held December 8. Greenville and Mercer contested. Greenville, prepared a debate, a declamation, and an essay to send to Mercer. Lyle McDowell and Evelyn Hart, with Walter Iffert as alternate. debated. Charles Keelan gave the declamation, and Lucile Harman the essay. The same night. Mercer sent debators, an crater, and a reciter to Greenville. Evelyn Evans and Glenn Reznor, wi;h Frances Fitch as alternate, debated with this team. Frederick Hunt gave an oration, and Martha Hesse gave a recitation. Greenville won but one point in this meet. That was the recitation by Martha Hesse, who held undisputable supremacy. We truly believed that Charles Keelen should have held first place for the declamation, but the decision of the judges had to be accepted. The second meet was held February 23. Greenville met Sharon this time. Albert Lutton and Eleanor Horne were on the debating team. Leona Fuller gave a recitation. Herber Hunt an oration, and Edith McGranahan an essay. Herbert Hunt won the oration and Edith McGranahan the essay. We proved that we could do better, but we still felt that we had not done our best. The final roundup of all the schools was held May 4 at Mercer in ..he court house. Debates were eliminated at this contest, but in their stead there were contests in music (vocal, piano and violin), history, letter writing, and spelling. The essay, oration, declamation, and recitation contests were again held. Herbert Hunt was chosen for the oration. Charles Keelen for the declamation. Martha Hesse for the recitation. Edith McGranahan for the essay, Eleanor Hart for history, Mary Orr for letter writing. Glenn Reznor for vocal, Charlotte Grauel fo piano, Florence Joslin for violin, and Goldie Hughes. Helen Barbour, and Albert Lutton. with Fred Black as alternate, for spelling. In the roundup we did much better than in the other two meets. Glenn Rezncr won first place for vocal, and Martha Hesse won first place for the recitation. Edith McGranahan won second place for her essay. Charlotte Grauel and Florence Joslin won third place for piano and violin. Albert Lutton tied for first place in the spelling contest. It certainly was no fault of his that he did not en.irely win first place. A remarkable feature of the spelling contest was that of the five spellers, chosen from the afternoon contestants to contest in the evening, Greenville sent all three of her representatives to the evening session. In the final score. Greenville, having ten and one-half points, ranked third among the schools. Because this is the first contest of the kind to be held in Mercer county, we feel that Greenville has done fairly well. But we hope that Greenville High School does better next year and in the years to come—we sincerely hope that she wins first place. Seventy ELEANOR HART Citizenship and the Kighteenth Amendment In considering Citizenship and the Eighteenth Amendment let us decide what is meant by Citizenship. The Fourteenth Amendment declares that “all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and under the jurisdiction thereof are citizens of the United States and the state wherein they reside.’ Citizenship costs us nothing but we are entitled to a great many rights. These rights may be divided into two separate classes. Civil rights and Political rights. We need not consider civil rights in this question as they are the rights which a person en- joys as an individual under the authority and sanction of the governmen: but are not re- lated to the government. Political rights are those rights applied to a citizen regarded as a participator in the afTairs of the government and to be a citizen participator in the affairs of the government does not mean one must be a public office holder; it refers to the citizen voter. For is not the public office holder the servant of the citizen who elected him to office? All citizen voters should regard themselves as officers of the government. Each one is a member of the “electorate.” That vast governing body which consists of all the voters and which possesses supreme political power, controlling all the governments. Federal. State and Local. What are the duties of a citizen in a self-governing country? There are many things a citizen should do in order to secure the highest degree of citizenship. One of the most important is: To recognize the result of the election as the will of the people and therefore as a law. The first prohibition movement in the United States began about 1800 when several abstinence pledges were circulated. The first temperance society was founded in 1808 in New York, and a few years later one was founded in Massachusetts. During this time the movement was directed primarily against distilled liquors, as cider, beer, and wine were considered harmless. During the next quarter of the century the pledge was gradually based on total abstinence. The fight for national prohibition was waged throughout the rest of the nineteenth century, and each year rallying thousands to its standard. The beginning of the twen- tieth century found no let up and by 1916 more than one-third of the states had adopted state-wide prohibition. Not less than three-fourths of the total area of the United States was “dry” territory and a little more han fifty millions of Americans had voted dry. and thus sounded the death knell of John Barleycorn. A movement in favor of prohibition of manufacture, sale and transportation of in- toxicating liquors, culminated in December. 1917. with the passage through Congress of an Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution, providing for nation-wide prohibition to go into effect one year after the ratificaion of he Amendment by the states. The assent of the necessary thirty-six states was obtained and the amendment went into effect January 16. 1920. Like all legislation against money making crime the new amendment naturally aroused fierce opposition. Cries of “personal liberties of Puritan blue laws and lack of freedom, arose. As if personal liberty could be used to excuse murder and debauchery and all that is connected with drink. As though “Blue Law” must designate a measure for the protection of wives and children and even the manhood of America. The Eighteenth Amendment was legally enacted after long years of effort. The fundamental basis of good citizenship is obedience to the law. Without that obedience does not government become anarchy, and civilization a meaningless term? Before 1920 prohibition was a debatable question. Since 1920 the enforcement of prohibition and good citizenship have been inseparately linked together—prohibition is a law and by every principle of human progress “it must be obeyed.” What is the advantage of voting if the results are fruitless? Why enjoy the priv- ilege of citizenship and not pay the only price possible—obedience to the will of the majority. Good citizenship demands that laws must be carried out and any evasion of the Eighteenth Amendment or of any other law. is a violation of the sacred rights and duties of citizenship. Therefore the enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment is certainly a positive demand for the display of real American Citizenship. HERBERT HUNT This oration won first place in the Sharon-Greenville Literary Contest. Seventy-one The Conservation of Our Forests H� ve you ever realized ho v absolutely dependent we are upon wood F You wake up in the morainic in a wooden bed and hurry to a tire kindled of wood. You neat yourelf at a wooden table and eat for your breakfast, oranges which arrived from Florida in a wooden . rate, shipped in a wooden car over wooden ties The pencil in your pocket, the daily paper, the spool on which your thread is wound, handles of brooms, brushes, golf-stick and tennis racket are all made of wood. On and on a limitless amount of wood surrounds us daily, and aids us in performing the task of civilised living There is not a room in the 1 nited States that does not contain wood in some form. Not only are we dependent upon wood in our private life, but our commercial and industrial life is dependent upon it Many substitutes for wood have been devised, but the aggregate demand increases constantly. I nited States statistics show that thirty per cent more wood is used now for building than � conBUme7 More the use of brick and metal roofing Fifty per cent more wood is being used for the construction of our modern coaches than before the steel car. There are one hundred and twenty five million cross ties used yearly. In the orange growing rectione of Florida thirteen million crates requiring five and one half feet of lumber per crate are used in one season. Another tremendous use of wood is in the making of paper. Millions of acre of forests are used yearly in this industry. In fact the “New York Times ’ consumes twenty five acres of spruce forest for every Sunday edition. Everyone that considers for a moment is convinced that our civilization is resting upon a founda- tion of wood. We are ready to raise our voices in thanksgiving for trees. Hut let us look further. It has long been the popular opinion that we are blessed w ith a boundless supply of wood When the first settlers landed upon the Atlantic coast there stretched before them from the ocean to the prairie over thousands of miles, a vast forest, unbroken except for an occasional Indian clearing, the like of which the world had never seen For density and acreage no region on the globe could exceed this share of timber. It is little wonder that our ancestors considered the country inexhaustibly sup plied. But it is a proven fact that less lumber was used in the pioneer «lays per capita than now. In those days before stucco houses and metal beds were in use the average use of wood per capita was eighty per cent less than today. Mr F. F. Moon tells us that the Tinted States now manufactures enough board feet of sawn lumber to make a board walk three feet wide six times around the globe. All this ia very well, most of this wood is put to use for the betterments of man. Why shouldn't w e enjoy our national resources—our supply seems to be inexhaustible—but is it f Since the settlement of our country over three-fifths of our forests are gone. Pennsylvania now produces less than the re quirement for Pittsburgh alone. With lumber fast decreasing in every state and the demand increasing what will be the result ? The United States report in 1916 said. 'The country today is short 1.250.000 homes.” If we were short 1.250.000 during a temporary shortage, what w:ill be Our condition in a couple of decades of real lumber famine? The American people have always been considered an enter prising nation ready to meet any situation, and here certainly is a serious situation. We are pre-eminently a nation of wood users, but not wood growers. We are using four times as much lumber as we are growing In the United States we have four hundred and sixty five million acres of forest land of all sorts cut over and burned. Most of this will always be forest land. If it can be kept at work growing trees its area is ample to grow all the wood needed for our own use and our export trade. Our problem then is principally the problem millions of idle acres Idle acres are as great an economic loss as idle factories and farms. We must then begin a construction program of re forestration. During Roosevelt’s administration we heard much about the ’•conservation of our national forests. Many got the false notion that it meant saving our trees, stinting ourselves to supply the on-coining generations. This is the wrong idea : a Conservation Movement is the nationwide effort to secure efficient and economical use of our national wealth so that we will not pass on an Impoverished country to our descendants. Conservation doe not mean locking up our resources, conservation mean proper use of our resources. Much has been done along this line but not enough. The United States should put more restric- tions on privatelv owned forest . The time has come when forests have to be considered national resources as much as coal and iron. Our great need is not to use less timber, but to grow more tree . The problem of our nation's wood supply is then a national problem, and we as patriotic citizens should be far-sighted enough to desire the future prosperity of our country, we should be in sympathy with legislatures which endeavor to prevent wood famine . We ought to take a real personal interest in doing our bit. We can plant a few tree , influence others to plant, and save our forests as much as possible by careful personal habits in preventing fire . What we fear most is not today's trouble, but that which may happen tomorrow. The conservation of our forests is a matter so sericus and important that it should procure the attention of every man. woman, girl and boy in the United State . Every citizen who is truly a patriot should do his share in saving the forest which will make the America of tomorrow a more comfortable, a more prospering and a better place for the generation yet unborn to live. EDITH McGKANAHAN With this essay Edith won first place in the Sharon-Greenville Literary Contest, and second place in the Mercer County Literary Co« “st held at Mercer. Seventy-two Seventy-three PENNERIAN ■ I DRAMATICS “Oh, say, did you hear about the dramatics of the class of ’23?” Certainly, everyone has. Each year’s dramatics in a high school are just a little hi: better than those of the year before, you know. “Well. I am sure ours were the best of the best.” “Why not tell me about them? Tell me what the class of ’23 thinks of them, let others judge for themselves. All right, I am willing.” First was Springtime. This was a three-act comedy, put on by the John Rogers Producing Company, under the direction of Mr. Hill. It excelled all previous plays of its nature. Frances Fitch as Priscilla, won great admiration and showed all just what she could do. We certainly were glad to have her with us. Evelyn Hart as Elvira, the vamp, was a great favorite. And oh, how she can vamp. Eleanor Hart had a chance to show us her real self, always loving and kind. James Heilman as Jack Wainright added much to his popularity and ability as an actor as well as a singer. Glenn Reznor as Tom Higgins, gave us a glimpse of fine acting in a character opposite to his own. Warren Mitchell as Dr. Brewster gave us many of the comic situations of the play. If you want to know how to advertize go to Warren. If you dn’t believe me, how is this? Hark, the herald angels sing. Brewster’s pills are just the thing. Peace on earth and mercy mild. One for man and two for child. And then Zenobia, who can forget her? Our Mabel as Zenobia. It’s a mystery how she ever forgot her motto, Laugh and grow fat” long enough to take this part. Then we can’t forget our jury scene with Evelyn O’Brien as judge. Frances Fitch as plaintiff. James Heilman as defendant. Jerry Clyde as judge for plaintiff man and Mary Orr as usher. A real jazz jury. Of course you understand that there were many in this play who were not Seniors. The second play was a French play called Les Deux Sourds and certainly proved that the pupils of old Penn High are learning French. It was under the direction of Mr. Stein, the French teacher, and was given for the purpose of showing the people just what has been done in French. It is the first play to be given in the school in a foreign language. In addition to this play, a French chorus sang many French songs, which added much to the evening’s entertainment. “Of our Seniors Albert Button took the par. of Damiseaux in the play! Sam Alden- derfer the part of Placide; and Warren Mitchell the part of Boniface. Next Mr. Smith gave his operetta ‘Kidnaped.’ This was a combination of the best parts of preceding plays and opere.tas and rivaled even The Fire Prince. Of course you realize that it would. It was written by Mr. Smith himself. Gerry Clyde as bride, and Howard Knapper as bridegroom made a very good locking pair. Frances Fitch and Joe Hart, her faithful admirer, gave us a glimpse of how a good-bye might be said. Glenn Reznor and Eleanor Hart certainly deserve a great deal of credit for their addi- tions to this play. The second act was devoted to a home talent show. Of this we are sure to remember Thaddy O’Brien. Johnny Zundel. Kitty O’Grady, and Dorothy Newell in the Irish Jig; the Highland Fling by Kitty Baer and Mvrtie Dimmick; and Paul Holibaugh’s dance and song. Ahs Done Contented.’ And last mentioned, but by no means least, our class party. Honor Bright.' This has no: been given as yet, but it is under the direction of Miss Bacher and this alone is enough to insure its success. “Richard Barrington. Glenn Reznor. has decided to marry an actress, Evelyn O’Brien, against the advice of his mother, Mrs. Barrington. Bessie Van Dyke, and his aunt and uncle Mr. and Mrs. Carton. Fred Black and Myrtle Dimmick. His fiancee is delayed and a book agent. Eleanor Horne, arriving at the time is mistaken for the bride to be. In addition to these characters are the very important ones of Annie the maid. Frances Ash; Maggie the cook. Ruth Gruber; Foster the gardener, Sam Aldenderfer; Michael the chauffeur, Lyle McDowell; Simpson, the deputy sherifT. Howard Green, and Jones the deputy sheriff. Ed. Smith; Watts the butler, Glenn Chess, and Rev. James Schooley, Joe Allen. I am sure that this is going to be the best class play ever given. It has great possibilities, at any rate. Seventy four Those who think our jokes are poor. Would straightway change their views, Could they compare the jokes we print. With those that we refuse.
