 The Retrospect Class of 19 27 CLETUS METZGER Cletus was chosen the most dignified boy in our class, and with good reason. He carries himself in a way which makes everyone realize that someday he will do something important. He is not obtrusive yet he makes his presence felt wherever he goes. DONNA MILLER “I want to he successful in business and I am willing to work toward that goal. I endeavor to have fun as often as possible and try to arrange this so that it will not interfere with my lessons-What more must be said? MARJORIE MILLER Marjorie is taking a commercial course, but we know she is also interested in music, as she is a member of both the Glee Club and Orchestra. She always seems to have something to do, and knows how to enjoy herself. MARY MILLER Mary loves Basketball and all sports, and therefore, is going to take up Physical Training at college. Mary’s appearance, however, makes one think of her as a Spanish Dancer instead of the former. Her generosity wins a place for her wherever she goes. LOLA MILLIETTE How shall we describe Lola? ’Twere well nigh impossible to do so and yet give you a true conception of her jolly nature unless you arc already acquainted with her. Lola is a friend to all and likewise the friend of all. She can make a dark path bright in the smallest possible time- KATHRYN MYERS Kathryn is a friendly girl with no small amount of pep. She has an ability to get along with people which is marvellous. She is one of these characters who means to do something for the world and make her presence felt. Blume Hi 192

DOROTHY MARTIN Assistant Editor of Retrospect—Serene, reticient, dignified; a prodigy of “conscience” with whom the fiend never seein” to be at war. There is beneath this calm exterior a vein of humor that lends charm of manner and buoyancy of spirit. MARY E. MASON Staff Play—Dull? No! Slow? No! A man-hater? No! What then? A splendid all-around classmate and friend, bubbling over with good spirits and the joy of living. A veritable rainbow maker. Mary is an example of great happiness in a small package. WILLIAM MAULT Staff Play-—What can be said of one who says so little and moves so quietly as “Willie?” William is not of an opposing nature and seems to escape getting into scrapes, as well as arguments. We wonder how he does it. Willie has for some time been engaged in the study of honey and bees. If any information is wanted, just ask and you will be told all about “honey.” CHARLES MAYER Charles is one of the workers in our class, and we are sure that he will some day make himself known in the business world- He possesses an ability to get a-licad, which foretells future success. We wish him good luck, vet it would take even more than the lack of luck to deter Charles in his purpose. CORA METZ Cora’s course of study has been chiefly in commercial work. She has a desire for pleasure which will aid her in business, and a dignity which some may find bard to surpass. Few persons really know Cora, but to her friends, she is a good, faithful companion. WILMA METZ V iltna is very gentle and unobtrusive, but studious and self-contained. She combines dignity and a pleasant manner in a way whieh makes her a help and corn-tort to her friends. She has been in Blume High School four years, and is a diligent worker, so that her time has been well and pleasantly spent- Blume Hi 1927'

KENNETH PFAFF Kenneth does not seem to worry about being late, even with a penalty of forty-five minutes tacked on to his school hours. Kenneth is not always behind; to be frank, he keeps up with styles and occupies a high place in society. It has been hinted that for some time he has been guilty of serenading and courting, but the report is not verified. MABEL RINEHART Mabel is a willing worker and the possessor of ambition and persistency to an extent which foretells future success. Yet she is fun-loying and as the world has need of a recipe for the correct combination of mirth and industry we hope that Mabel will soon see fit to divulge the secret- BERTHA RAMGE Bertha is very resolute in her work, but scarcely gives us a chance to discover her plans for the future or even the present for she has decided upon her work and will accomplish it. even if she has not put her plans before the public, for she is an ambitious worker. SARRA RITCHIE Joke Editor—-Vivacious and merry is our little joke editor. Sarra loves to know what is going on around her. and gives you the kind of friendship that makes you glad to be alive. She's every inch an optimist as she always looks on the bright side of life. AUBREYROMSHE Behold, a man who will win for himself in this world a place of renown! You can t keep a good man down. Aubrey has shown himself capable of keeping up a good standard of grades in his regular studies and often serves as a teacher in manual training. We suspect that this work will be taken up extensively by Aubrey in the future. HOYLAND ROSTORFER Hoyland is a sweet girl and everybody likes her immensely- She has lofty standards and her efforts are many and varied. She has pretty hair, and this combined with her sunny disposition, makes her very attractive. Hi 192 7- me
