EMMA CHRISTIAN. Carried on the sound waves caus- ed by the discharge of a cannon in the early sixties, a little blue eyed giri was dropped in the vicinity of SheiHeia. With a determination to become famous, Emma Christian, for it was none other, — began work. She attended the Sheffield Public School where all her teachers won- dered at her talent. In the fall of 1909 Emma with that good judg- ment natural to her boarded the train for C. S. N. S. where she has proved herself a strong influenl ial girl. She takes great interest in the Y. W. C. A. of which she has been president for the past year. In her classes Emma ranks among the plea; sh ... has become an earnest student of His- tory making ' a specialty of the life of Sir Walter R. Prospects foil ' her future are bright, and it will not surprise us in later clays to hear her name associated with the famous women of the twentieth GEORGIA COE. A worthy representative of Potter County, Georgia Coe rirst unpacked ner- earthly possessions in Mills. Not finding this city suitable to her tastes and desires, she soon moved LO Oswayo, where she went to her early education. Later she went to Harrison Valley entering the High School from which she was gradu- cla sho town in tlie evenings during r hour. After graduation she ds to teach, but for a short only as she has another pros- THEODOSIA CLAWGES. Theodosia! Theodosia! Has anyone seen Theodosia? Dode, as she is generally known, is a blue eyed lass with light hair which had a streak of gold running through it. After attending Ridgway High School Theodosia. in the fall ' of ' 09 came to C. S. N. S. where she has distinguished herself In more ways than one. In the class room she is always ready with an answer, and being such a conscien- tious girl, was chosen as a member of the Y. W. C. A. devotional com- mittee. FLORENCE CRAIG. Oh, it was in the bleak December, that tli ere came to the Craig home- stead in Limestone a rare and radi- ant maiden. whom her parents choose to call Florence. Early in life she gave signs of what she might do in the way of education, so it was thought best that she en- ter the Clarion Normal . She has been faithful in her classroom and it 1 1 villi. midst. We fear that as she goes out in the world, and labors among the communities, her noble charac- ter will be noted and sought by many. However, if she takes up the cross and proves as faithful as she has to her class, we can say, Well done thou good and faithful ser

PRUDA ERWAY. Pruda Erway fii st saw the light of this earth near Harrison Valley, one day in September. She was graduated from the Valley High School and after teaching ' two years found herself at Clarion Normal, January 1910, registered as a mem- ber of the class of ' 11. She is quiet and unassuming, but persistent and nin bilious and always ready to lend a li el ping hand. Pruda ' s most fre- quent saying is I know I ' ll Flunk. We think there would be no danger, if she wouldn ' t spend quite so much time curling her hair. .Her favorite sport is catching mice at midnight. A little more courage, Pruda, so you won ' t have to awaken your neighbors to kill them. ETHEL FITZSIMMONS Ethel Fitzsimons, one of our bright and industrious little girls was born near Brookville in 1SS5 (?). From the first she showed remarkable rea- soning power, which still clinging to her, helped to smooth many dif- ficulties in Geometry. After teach- ing successfully for two years, she came to the Normal where she takes an active interest in school affairs and is always ready to do her duty. Ethel is especially bind of Ethics and Logic. Wonder what the attrac- tions might be. May she always have success in her chosen profession, namely that of teaching children. ALICE FENSTAMAKER. Yes, there is Biddy, the worthy- Secretary of our class, who has= fait.h fully performed the du ' .jles of that office for the last three years. Everybody wears a smile when Biddy comes around, for her sunny disposition and lovable ways drive away all morbid feelings. Although she produces this effect in our daily lives, she certainly goes the limit on the stage, where she can pro- duce the appearance, manners, and speech of a mammy cook to per- fection. Her favorite pastimes are- shooting, goals and holding hands after class meeting. Biddy also pos- sesses the fine arts of a musican; she can play anything from the simple hymns we used to sing in Chapel to the classical works of Chopin and Wagner. Alice ' s great. ability lies in the fact that she knows the right word in the proper place. JESSIE GATES. ' Happy-go-lucky Jess first com- menced to talk in Bedford, and has become quite proficient in that line. She takes good care not to let her studies interfere with the more im- portant things of life. Her favorite- pursuits are tennis and basket-ball. She is also very well versed in other- lines, just ask Sluge.
