The services that Byron rendered the Student Govern- ment are especially commendable. ln his last year he gave up a minute of each period, and twice a day whole exercise periods in order that he might relieve the congestion in the halls by arriving at his next class ahead of time. Yve thank him, and wonder how he got away with it. He's an excellent fellow, and a friend worth having. Tim! .rclmol-gif! 1'0n1plc.i'1'on 11H'I0ll-II Imym ar qzulr mn-.

Gazing upon the sleepy countenance depicted here, you would hardly believe its owner to be a pocket billiard shark, independent basketball star, and a baseball player. That listless gaze deceives his op nents just as it does you, but there's much behind those gliisses. His greatest accomplish- ment is sleeping soundly through a stormy recitation period, and awakening at the psychological moment.

There is an old saying, Good goods always come in small packages, but we offer Emma Louise as a roof that that is all wrong. While one would hardly call Emma petite, she is one of the ver nicest girls in our class, and an ideal center for our basketgiall team, too.

Mary is our most studious, ambitious, and dependable irl, and she deserves every speck of fame that comes to her. But it is sort of hard on us poor mortals endowed with just ordinary intelligence to be in a class with Mary. She makes us seem like tots in a kindergarten with the whole world ahead of us to conquer. But say, have you ever watched her roll her eyes or, we might ask, have you ever been a victim? Our Honor Lady! Lowa' hy all Of mind moat keen and temper Jweel. Jlay fortune bring you everything T o make your happinenr complete!

La petite leannel No one could ever forget her blonde daintiness. Remember the Christmas play, in which she had such deliciously lovely hysterics'l Even if she did snap at the otter like a bird at a cherry we were perfectly en- chanted by her acting.
