Sha is cz winfsomc wee tiling. Ruth is the smallest person we ever knew to contain so much energy, curiosity and ambition. Her conversations range all the way from one theology and jewish History to her last date.', . She is also very business-like, being very successful in shorthand and typing, both of which she regards not only as useful accomplish- ments but as serious arts Ruth has not fully decided as to her future course but she Wishes to go to the Jewish University at Palestine. Failing this she will either work in her father's store or else go to some other University or College. Isabel Martha Porter 2 Imp Izzy Classical Course A. .-X.

It' you see a girl talking, giggling, or skipping around in Room S or perhaps doing all three at the same time, you can conclude that this is our Imp, Imp is artistically inclined and her tablets are always adorned with bathing beauties and Charleston dancers. Izzyl' is never without a little witty saying or a short oration which is always gladly 1't-tw-iyecl by her classmates. ' Imp tells us she is interested in French and from present indica- tions it looks as though she had to go fighting through life. John J.

John is one of our puzzles. just what is going on behind that quiz- zical smile which one always sees on his face is a mystery. Is he con- descendingly amused at 'us or is he really interested? We would like to have some one fathom this problem for us and produce a satisfactory answer. John is seldom in a hurry and nothing seems to bother him. To- day means little in a long lifetime so why worry. No matter what emergency pops up John proceeds, in an unruffled and dignified manner, to take care of the affair. Although John has not confided to us what he expects to do in the future, we feel certain that he will succeed in what he attempts. 'liCi'1'lIfN'eli111U

For glances liege! ogles, ogles sighs, Sighs ivishes, ivislzes tuorrls, A1111 tuorcls a letter. Esther has performed to her credit in the typing room, for in her list of activities, note the number of medals she has won. Esther has not been sellish in her knowledge of typing for she has done much of our extra typing for us, not to mention her own personal notes. For we find that note-writing is her favorite pastime. Esther tells us she might go to Clarion Normal next year. Thanks to her energy and capability, Esther is bound to succeed.

Her eyes throw brown hzriufs One for his head, One for his heel, .elnrl he lies zvz1zquishe1l. The girl with the fascinating brown eyes sitting in Room S is none other than Lois. Lois came to us, in her Sophomore year, from Uniontown. XVhat Uniontown lost Punxs'y gained for since her arrival here she has become an indispensable figure in P. H. S. Her jolly smile and carefree ways have won the admiration of all. Lois has performed very capably for us as class secretary this year. Lois expects to enter The Eastman School of llusic at Rochester, N. Y., next year to study the violin. Vile drink to your success, Lois! Robert Pantall iLBObY7 A. A.

H11rle I0 that shrill, suflden shout, The ery of an applazzdirzg ll!llll'l'l'lldt'. Bob was our cheer leader this year and we feel that we could not have found a better one. He has very successfully led many shrill, sudden shouts and has managed to make our yelling the best that it has been in years. Next to leading our yells, Bob enjoys telling jokes which are so funny that it would take the proverbial Englishman years to find the point. When Bob comes in and says, Have you heard this one? it is a sign that sometime in the near future you are going to be in a state of semi-hysterics. Bob docsn't know what he is going to do after school closes, but we wish him all possible success in the future. 'only-lliret

'23, '24, '25, '26, To mc thou uri an inmge sure, Of umny a HIIll'l1l'71, milf! 111111 pure. Olive is that fluffy-haired, vivacious, petite member of the class of '26. If one is merely within speaking distance of her, he cannot be lonesome or blue for she is the peppiest little fun-maker P. H. S. has had for a long time. She is always laughing, or perhaps more properly giggling, joking and talking-but that doesn't say we don't like her for that wouldn't be true. Olive can make a smile appear where a frown has been a mo- ment before. Olive has not yet decided what she will do next year but we have our suspicions -are they well founded, Olive? Lee R. Roach Roachic English Course Track 243 Football '26, A. A. '24, '26, Red Vross '24 ,'26. Play zzof for gain, but sport. Lee is one person in High School who always has a perfect excuse for tardiness. The car was late, seems to be as potent as certain Arabian words once were. Strange to say, Lee seldom uses his excuse. probably due to the fact that he came to our school at the beginning of the year and is still on his good behavior. Lee is not without honor on the athletic field. As one can see by his list of activities, he was in the track team in 1024 and the football team in 1926. If you want to know how good a player he is, ask some- one who saw him. The answer will not be derogatory. Thus far Lee has not announced what he will do after school closes but we wish him luck in whatever he decides to do. s Anne Orrell Hampson Rodkey Rum Anne Classical Course Debating Club '26, American Education Speech '26g A. A. '24, '25, '26, ' Oliver Goldsmith '23g Class Secretary '22, '24, American Education VVeek Play '23, Her soul shines forth from her eyes of blue. Petite demure and a blonde-a beautiful blonde-with eyes of L7 7 blue-that is our Anne although what this tiny morsel lacks in size she more than makes up in personality, capability and name. This proves the old, old saying that good goods comes in small packages. Although Anne is usually very peaceful, she sure rattles off the French when she is cross. It seems a shame that such a wee person should have such a long walk to school. However, she never wants for a companion-at least part of the way. Anne is one of these girls who always has a lfrank attitude about her. Anne either expects to enter Hood College next year or Drexel In- stitute. The class of '26 wishes you Hbeaucaup de success Anne. Twerzty-ji
