I9 M and Mrs. Neff sat down for a rest and a clear thought of what had really been going on. We once again floiund out that we had added a large sum to our treasury. A little later in the year we again attempited another money making scheme by having a picture, Lorna Dos-ne. With Mr. Lininger's generous aid we again added an another horde of riches to our treasury. Thanks to Mr. Lininger for this. The novel feature of Junior year was the Junriloir and Senior banquet given in honor of the Seniors at the Gunter Hotel in Froistburg. Every member of the two classes looked forward tor this event. When the time arrived every one was out in his or her finest seeing which one could look the best and eat the most supper. But, as it was dedided afterwards that no one could out-do the other, we started home, awaking every town we passed through. After we reached Piedrmont, and bidding each and every one adieu, We returned to our homes with hi24P'Dy and smiidnlg faces. In our Senior year all dignity and seriousness had been assumed in work and playg and it is with many regrets we take our leave. Our thoughts this year were to make Tris the best that it has ever been. The one brig event this year was Mr Bob, a two act oomedy presented by fthe Senior class. We all added something new in a minstrel al-eng with the play. Both off these were a huge success. At last we comme to our jiourney's end with many regrets but firmly re- solved to honor our dear P. H. S. wherever we may roam. ETHEL WILDE RMAN '24 CV W' f 'S' ith 4 3' 1 glgll by L Page twenty-I-wo .. - '- ze-I-'-e-r-gespa'ffti?' -- ',. -.-....-....,-.f -e --i-gg 1-.

Just la, lit- tle more work along with our fun, commencement and all will lbe over. The cllass of '24's high school ealreer has been a pleasant one and we oan not say in words how we regret to leave our dear old school. It is true that we have had our share of fun along with hard work and sorrows, but now the hap- penings of the past are just a mere matter in our young lives. Our fail- ures and sorrows slip away from us and the cheerful moments and inci- dents come back to our memory. We entered P. H. S. ordinary, wayward and green as all Freshmen are. We started out trying to entertain the upper classmen by pulling some sil- ly and foolish jokes, but we were soon shown our places and told we were not in high school to entertain but to work. This being our first advice from the faculty and upper classmfen, we needed no more, so we set out to work at once. In our Sophomore year we drifted along canusing some excitement and trouble once in awhile, for some of our memwbers are noted for their mis- chievous ways. Although our Sophomore year was uneventful was fair as so- oial affairs were concerned, we can lbning back fond memories of little pranks We played on members of our class and other classes. Mischievofus Juniors we were called in our tlhird year and true to our name. We tried and practiced everything unusual that we thought of. Our first activity was the Junior Fair, this was one of our biggest events of the year. With the help of Mrs. Neff and the co-operation of each and every Junior this was a success. The next big event was va supper the Junifor Class held at the K. of P. armory. After much wc-rry over the selling of the tnickets the time arrived for the class to have this affair. Before time for the doors to be opened a large crowd stood anxiously waiting to start on the delicious eats the Jun- iors had prepared for them. When the supper was over and every one left feeling as if they should never be able to eat again, the overworked Juniors Page tfwenty-one I 4

Senior Qlllass 19112111 Commencement tolls the knell of parting day, Exaaxms have left us glorious and gay. Soon we will have to bid our sad farewell, To our class-mates and our beloved school bell And then into- our mind there comes a thought, Of how for fame and fortune We have fought. Of many gay and happy hours spent, Which were then but a moment's ornament. Of many courtships of the High School gwasls, And of the fellows we have known as pals. And of our many parties, quararels and games, Which have enshrouded our good schoolls nuasme. Now out into the hemisphere we go, To fight along with many friends and foe. Many may have the joy of college life, While some must bear the brunt of oity strife. Some will have their nnalmes in the hall of fame, While others will die with an unknown name. If we shall be successful in this life, Or if We fall in the battle of strife. We still shall meet again some other day, We always hope-in the not far away. And we shall be was in the days' off yore, The well known Class of Nineteen Twenty Four. ADOLPH ABRAMSON 24 HERBERT MULLAN 24 Page twenty-three x
