RUTH FULLER Ruth came to us from Freeman Grammar School with such ai sweet tem- perament tthis is the polite word for temper, lNIr. Coleman tells usj. But four years at Drury have greatly changed her. Ruth has been a prominent member of Der Deutsche Yereinf' To any one contemplating a graduation present for Ruth. we would suggest a Big Ben. No wonder lVIr. Kearney's hair is turning gray, chasing her around for slips. YVe hope that next year Ruth will be more considerate of the teachers at VVells. 18

BIABEL f'Unn.xN 'Twas hard to realize that the stately dignified senior who captured first prize at Kappa Speaking was once that shy, bashful freshman. Mabel was fortunately assimilated into our ranks from St. Joseph's School and for four years has been winning honors for Drury. Sophomore and Senior years, lNIahel's Kappa was one of the four best. As alunini editor of the Academe, she con- tributed so many UQ notes that she was re-elected Junior year. Usually, Mabel displays her convent behavior but once Bliss Spencer had to fire her. hlabel is one of those chosen to speak at graduation for high scholarship. Next year will find Mabel at Wellesley. STELLA Doomzv Stella coines from South Church Street. She rises at 5.30 and arrives at school just as the clockistrikes a quarter past eight. Stella takes a great delight in filling out tardy slips, and she has never known what it is to run short of an excuse. If you want a pencil ask Stella. she'll give you a short hand pencil, and what is more it will be so short. that you will not be able to write with it. Stella takes a great interest in typewriting, but niore so in the demonstrators that have visited the school in the past years. A great future is expected for Stella, who some day will invest her large fortune in a pencil manufacturing business. P' I

MARY GLEAsoN lNIary's little but she's wise, She's a terror for her size. Don't believe it? Ask the Faculty. W'e all know Mary is a shark. The only trouble she has caused in old Drury has been on account of her tiny voice. The teachers have tried to strengthen it, for all the good they did. Better luck to the Normal professors! Mary was Junior class vice-presidentg also assistant editor of the Academe. She is our class prophet and her excellent scholarship has won for her the honor of speaking at graduation. HENRY GOODRICH FI A 0 Henry is a baseball enthusiast. VVe know this because when he decided he wanted to graduate this year, he slid and got there. He doesn't know what to do next year, but We have noticed a little tendency to carve wood with his jack knife and we may see him a carpenter yet. A post-graduate course at St. Joseph's High would place him nearer some of his friends but he will succeed anywhere. 19
