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

 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

LAVERA RUCK La era is another one of the many girls of Blume High who expects to carry out a commercial career. Considering the training they have had and their own possibilities, we know that all of them will be successful. Lav era shows expertness in this line. MYRTLE RUCK Here is a happy girl who makes friends of all with whom she comes in contact. Her friends are many, her enemies are few, if she has any. We know that she will continue to make many friends and will keep the old ones, as she has a sunny personality and does not worry others with her troubles- HAROLD SCHERER Another worker! We have many such men in our class; indeed it is quite an exceptional class. Harold is a member of the orchestra, and is winning fame for himself in the school and among the public by his splendid bass voice for he is a member of the Glee Club. HOWARD SCHNELL Staff Play—People are needed to give pep and spice to this old world. If it needs it as badly as we feel it does, Howard is a rare treasure and he and his assets should be carefully guarded by the school-He has no end of energy and a good deal of initiative. We must give him a chance to use it. FRED SCHULER Joke Editor—Here’s a lad with a roguish look and who has real business ability. Fritz can sell “Adds” His popularity among girls as well as boys is incomprehensible. and his appreciation of a good joke makes him very agreeable company. He says, “Laugh and the world laughs with you: knock and you knock alone.” —Fritz laughs! HERBERT SCHULER Herbert seems to have a terrible habit of talking to himself. We haven’t the slightest idea what he says- He seems to be very thoughtful and probably if these thoughts would be brought to light, they might be of great benefit to the inhabitants of the earth. His vein of wit and humor are outstanding, if one attempts to characterize him. Blume Hi 192 7
