And yet he had that happy faculty of being able to sit down and really concentrate on anything. Perhaps this explains his high scholastic standing. 11 is record of participation in school activities and functions is second to few.

He drafted himself into the operetta. “Ichabod Crane, ’ as soon as he found that it was to be given in conjunction with Northrop. In view of the fact that since then he has consistently refused to be associated with the Glee Club, his actions are incriminating.
