One hundred years ago, a Peters Township High School student named Elizabeth Douglass decided to compile what she called a âCharacter Book.â A page from Margaret Douglass' "Character Book" from 1921 reveals a classmate's stated food preference, among other tidbits. Harry Funk âShe went around to all of her classmates and would ask your name, address, whatâs your favorite song? Whatâs your favorite food? What do you want to be when you grow up?â archivist Carolyn Friedrich said. Today, the handwritten journal is available for viewing at Peters Township Public Library, where Friedrich is working with reference librarian Margaret Deitzer to preserve as much local history as possible for posterity.
