FOURTH YEAR CLASS GUY LOTRIDGE. Two Years Latin—Two Years Commer- cial. I turn to go: my feet are set to seek the pleasant fields and farms.” Someone said that they thought that Guy was such a quiet and gentlemanly hoy. We acknowledge the gentlemanly characteristic but you see most of his friends look wise when you call him quiet. He is always on hand when the midnight crew has a meeting. Ilis ex- perience of about a year ago has left him rather cynical of the opposite sex. MILDRED MILLIETTE. Four Years Latin. Full many a friendship has this maid begun, Of ladies many, but of men only one.” E in Latin, E in Physics, E in Civics— Oh what s the use? You may always be sure of hearing “Miliy’s” name in the list whether it is for programs or any other kind of school activity. Her winning ways have brought her many friends. W hen she finds her sphere we expect her to bring fame to our class. ROY WINEMILLER. Two Years German—Two Years Com- mercial. “They talk much who have least to say.” Roy has gone through school without making much noise or raising much dust. He is not known very well outside the classroom and even there is rather incon- spicuous. licing one of the quiet fellows and never intruding he has won friends, l ie seems to think girls a menacing calam- ity as he is seldom seen talking to one. His penmanship is the best in the class. LEONA FOLKER. Two Years Latin—Two Years German. “A gracious manner and a winning smile.” Leona has other duties—including writing a letter to “him”—nevertheless has kept pace with her classmates. She will always be remembered by us as a very sensible and agreeable girl. She has the ability to make friends and no one has ever been heard to speak of her in any way but the best. (Page Fourteen)

FOURTH YEAR CLASS HARRY KNOST tf j President of the Senior Class ij fj 4 sji -i 7-K f X Gu-iG-iL- “If the approval of each I’ve won I claim the rank of a second Solomon. Strike up the music here comes the president of the Senior class. Jt is ru- mored that the Faculty is going to give “Red control of the High School, as he now seems to own a controling interest, lie is of the stubborn sort and likes to have whatever is under consideration thoroughly thrashed out before he yields a point. We feel now that he is the best leader we could have chosen. CHARLOTTE TAEUSCH. Vice-President of the Senior Class. Four Years Latin—Two Years German. “She moves a goddess She looks a queen.” Charlotte has always been a valuable asset to our class. In spite of the time devoted to society, she has always man- aged to be excused from the most of her examinations. She is very popular among her classmates and teachers. She is another one of our class who leaves us for college—Ohio Wesleyan. LEO HASSENAUER. Secretary of the Senior Class. Four Years German. “First among his peers; a royal, just and upright gentleman.” This aristocratic little fellow thorough- ly demonstrated that it is possible to go to school and make money at the same time. He has evidently learned the easi- est way to turn out his school work since he is a first-class student. His favorite pastime in school is taking a nap on Mon- days. We suspect there is a reason. HOWARD STREIGHT. Treasurer of the Senior Class .Two Years Latin—Two Years German.. His greatest ambition, we are proud to state, is simply this------- To graduate.” “Doc never did think much of work so has stayed away from it. basing his ar- gument on the fact that it takes a smart man to get through school without work- ing. He knows what he knows and bluffs the remainder. With a droll monologue he can keep the class listening to every word he says. He is well informed on current events. (Page Thirteen)

FOURTH YEAR CLASS EDWIN RAMGE. Two Years Latin—Two Years German. What shall I lo to he famous?” Edwin is one of those breezy, slangy individuals who is very proficient in the art of rapid speaking. Because of this he gives us an impression of great knowl- edge. He likes to bother the teachers and anyone else he can. He is extremely in- terested in wireless telegraphy and we expect him to develope into an Edison II. ALICE McAVOY. Two Years Latin—Two Years Commer- cial. ‘‘Variety is the very spice of life That gives it all its flavor.” No one ever saw Alice worried, and you ought to hear her laugh. Although she claims not to show • favoritism to any of her studies she must be especially fond of Solid Geometry as she was encored for it the second time. She is a light-hearted care-free girl who believes in having a good time wherever she is. LEO HEMMERT. Four Years German. “Out upon it. I have loved Three whole days together; And am like to love three more If it prove fair weather.” Leo is a sturdy fellow with jovial dis- position and handsome features. It was once rumored that he had a serious thought, but investigation proved this to be false. His grin means nothing but high spirits, and he can drive away the blues in five minutes. His affections change directions so often that it is hard to tell who the real girl is. EDITH BAKER Two Years Latin—Two Years German. “There was a soft and pensive grace. A cast of thought upon her face.” Ever since Edith has entered high school she has been a diligent pupil. She is a quiet little lass, whom to know is to love. A smiling countenance she always carries wherever she is. She is always ready to help her friends and has a love for all that is genuine. (Page Fifteen)
