“WHO'S WHO” IN L. T. H. S.
Celestine Dorothy Kocher,
~ daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wal-
lace Kocher, was born December
6, 1911 at Ashley, Pa.
She attended school at the
~ Wilkes-Barre city schools dur-
ing her first term and later at
| Kingston.
| Later she moved to Outlet
~ and attended Outlet school un-
til she completed the Eight
grades.
She started her high school
career at Lehman High School,
but spent only her Freshman
year at Lehman. Her Sopho-
more year she entered Lake
| Township high where she has
| brightened our way with her
sunny countenance and cheerful
disposition.
~~ In her school work she has
been an industrious and diligent
student, always responsive to
duty.
She has also displayed a help-
fulness in school activities, and
‘her melodious voice has reached
the heart of many. She has
“been a great asset in the Thes-
pian Society.
Selestine has been given the
“name of “Sally” among her
~ friends, and in our hearts we
~ will always remember the won-
derfully attractive personality
of “Sally’ and will all miss her
1 when it becomes necessary for
us to part. 8
- We have chosen “Sally” as
our class treasurer, and she has
been a very capable and trust-
| worthy one.
{ “To those who know thee not,
‘No words can paint

Know all words are faint.”

MOTHER
ake your mother happy,
fake her sing instead of sigh
the mournful hour of parting
be very, very nigh.
ake your mother happy,
Many griefs she has to bear;
And she wearies neath her burdens
Can you not those burdens share?
Make your mother happy
Prompt obedience cheers the heart;
While a wilful disobedience
Pierces like a poisoned dart.
~ Make your mother happy
On her brow the lines of care
Deepen daily, don’t you see them?
Make your mother happy,
For beneath the coffin lid,
~All too soon her face so saint like
Shall forevermore be hid.
Bitter tears and self-upbraiding
Can not bring her back again,
And remorseful memories
Are a legacy of pain.
Ah, begin today, all youthful people,
~ Listen when your mother speaks;
~ Tender, quick, and sweet obedience
For your highest good zhe seeks.
She loves you better than all others,
~ And for your sake herself denies;
Always patient, prayerful, tender
~ Ever thoughtful, true and wise.
Remember while you live, dear chil- |
dren,
And should you search the rounded
earth,
You'll never find a friend more faith- |
ful
Than the one who gave you birth.

School activities of the respective schools;
to inform the public of this section
about matters pertaining to the school
life for which their taxes are paid; to
develop the literary talents of the stud-
ent editors of each class of the five
schools.
How true this is after reading the
last verse you stop and meditate on
the question, “Can a mother’s love be
supplied?” No, dear folks it can not.
Not by the deep earnest yearning of
‘our spirits, not by the weary aching
in our hearts, not by the restless, un-
satisfied wanderings in our affections
and not by the reverence and holy
love can a mothers’ love be supplied.
In a mother there is an enduring
tenderness in the love for her chil-
dren that transcends all other affee-
tions. Her love is not chilled by
selfishness or daunted by danger. A
mother will sacrifice every comfort
to her children’s pleasures, and will
surrender every pleasure to see them
enjoy themselves. When a son or
daughter meets fame she glorifies in
it and exults in their prosperity. And
if for some reason failure overtakes
them to her they will be dearér and
sweeter than ever and if disgrace
blots our their name she, and she
alone,
while the whole world scorns them.
But as a people the Americans ap-
preciate far too little the love and
sacrifices of a mother.
too little of her love and tenderness
and many think she is simply a ser-
vant in the home. But how many
stop to think when she is gone? When
the cares and the coldness of the
world come withering to our hearts
and we find how few love us. It is
then, and not until then, that many |
yearn for mother, the mother that
will be gone.
When she is laid quietly to rest,
we will weep over her grave, the only
spot left in the world that is dear
and yet many dread it. It is there,
over the grave of the darling one,
where tears will be shed, vows be
made and prayers offered. It will be
there that all rude words and actions:
will pierce our hearts like a dagger
and it will be there that we will real-
ize how dear our mothers were, and
we will pray to be taken in her lov-
ing arms again, but it will be too
late, for that saintly being will nev-
er more be able to come to us again
and with a pang in our hearts we will |
go wearily on our way, praying for |
the time when we will again see her
and she will again take us in her
will love and cherish them!

The events of commencement week
are beginning to shape themselves
into a definite array, and the school
days are numbered. On May 81 the
pupils will lay aside the “weights and
cares” which so easily beset anyone
connected with public schools, and
take up the fishing rod—or the white
man’s burden, depending upon their
station in school.
On Wednesday evening the Junior
Class presented “Nancy Anna Browns
Folks” to a large and appreciative
audience. It was a pleasing play,
diversified in its appeal, and well ren-
dered by the performers. A goodly
sum was realized and will be applied
to next year’s Washington tour. The
Juniors are indebted to a number of
local people for lending furniture to
Benton Hadsall for a specialty num-
ber between acts, and to Elwood Ter-
ry for violin solos of exceptional
merit. Katherine Stolarick and Nell
Holcomb were stage managers.
Next Wednesday, May 22, the Jun-
ior high school, under the direction of
Mr. Earl T. Farley, will present their
annual entertainment. It gives prom-
ise of being very good. On Friday
evening, May 24, the first six grades
will occupy the stage. This attrac-
tion never fails to fill the auditorium
and spectators are forced to come ear-
ly to procure admission. A special
number will be the playing of the
juvenile “Kiddy Band.”
The Baccalaureate sermon will be
presented to graduates on Sunday
evening, May 27 at 7:30 by Rev. Jas.
Burleigh of the Lehman church. On
Wednesday, May 29th the
Class night exercises will be held and
commencement will take place on Fri-
day, May 31. All events will begin
promptly at 9:00 P. M.
County prizes in the W. C. T. U.
were awarded to Alberta Wilcox of
the Fourth grade, Jean Zimmerman
of the Sixth grade, Madeline Searfoss
of the Ninth and Tenth grades and
Frances Zimmerman of the Eleventh
and Twelfth grades. :
The base ball team has won three
out of four games to date, for an
average of 150 per cent. Poor field-
ing marred the record in the one de-
feat.

For That Tired Feeling
Backaches and footaches and head:
aches are responsible for most of the
wrinkles and worry squints and tired
listless faces among women. Back-
| aches give that hard edge to the voice
and make women feel forty-five when
| they are barely thirty. Many of the |
tired aches could be avoided if wom-
en would take a little less care of
their houses and a little better care
of themselves.—Farm and Fireside.
