THE ROUNDUP Robert- Edward Lownby Bob is one of our bright young fellows. He made the course and got his diploma in only two years, the other two being spent at home in bed. He has always been the pride of the math classes ; and no triangle, pentagon, hexagon, or any other gon can get away from him alive. He is thorough in whatever he does ; and we expect that Bob, with this thoroughness, combined with his natural lika- bleness, will land near the top of the ladder some time. He gets what he wants and he wants what he gets. Scientific Course; Glee Club (1); Class Party Committee (21. Mabel Maud Johnson Mabel is the original little Lady of Fash- ion. Her nifty clothes and winning ways will be missed by all those who have known her and have basked in the sunshine of her smile. She is pointed out to strangers as that smil- ing-faced, sunny-dispositioned phantom of de- light, one of the number of whom Virgil has written, Varium et mutabile semper femina. This young lady invites the collective love of the class. Kindliness, friendliness, and energy win popularity, and Twin possesses all these characteristics. G.neral Course. Entered from Butte High (2); Class Vice-President (4); Glee Club and Chorus (4); Prom Committee; Girls League Party (3, 4); Party Committes (2, 3). 1 1 %•-- ' ■ Beulah Jeanette La Mere Smooth, shining black hair, and eyes which hold all the mysteries of a Midsummer Night ' s Dream. No one is more earnest than Toots when she tackles a job, but she is very loath to choose anything to tackle. Although no feminine Hercules in stature, she has used what height she possesses to good advantage on the basketball floor and demonstrated her athletic prowess on the championship team which beat Mt. Angelus. General Course; Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Senior Announcement Committee. Francis Barth He accomplishes more with less effort than any man known, but the word hurry is a minus quantity in his vocabulary. He is not a model boy, for he has two weaknesses — ice cream and girls. He has gone ' in for luxur- ious simplicity from his costumes to his hab- its. His favorite activity is rolling the square marbles and his favorite food is anything. All frivolity aside, there are few men who exceed him in capability, straightforwardness, and good common sense.

THE ROUNDUP Charlotte Irene Fairpull Ever to be remembered in the annals of local history is the day when modest, demure Charlotte, our Lady of Dexterity, descended the steps of the Belt daily to continue her search for knowledge on a higher plane. In one hand was her carpet bag, in the other, a De Luxe copy of The Biography of Benja- min Franklin from which she may have re- ceived an inspiration for her cheerful and companionable nature. She, like Miss Nancy in Silas Marner, has all the attributes of a lady — a high veracity, delicate honor in her dealings, deference to others, and refined per- sonal habits. General Course. Entered from Centerville High School (3). Hugh John L. Bergold Tickets ! Tickets I Here ' s where you get your tickets ! This is the cry which has greeted us throughout our Senior year and which has made of its producer the champion ticket seller of the school in football as well as in the Roundup campaign. Joe Matteueci ' s best grade of olive oil is used to give the ap- pearance of a patent leather covered head, but when the Italian product is unavailable he resorts to the home-made, which is a hair- raising mixture of pomade, vaseline, lard, and (except in times of famine ) butter. Tiny ' s a plague o both houses, but G. F. H. S. re- joices to call him its own. General Course; History Club (2, 3); Glee Club (4); Prince Chap (3); Boys ' Club (2, 3) : Manager for Sale of Football and Basket- ball Tickets (4) ; Hi-Life (3) ; Committee Roundup Subscriptions (4). Lenore Elizabeth Bettens Sweet, gentle, demure, Lenore is a true ex- ample of what a girl should be. There have been many things of benefit to the school which have had their beginning in Lenore ' s fertile brain or had her fingers mixed up in them. She is a real pusher, a real sport in everything she undertakes, and some sprinter at that, for she keeps just a little ahead of the best long distance runner in school. General Course; Glee Club (2) ; Prom Com- mittee ; Party Committee ( 1 ) ; Junior Com- mittee (3). Irene O. Hober One look at those black eyes and that per- fectly marcelled hair makes us think of Gloria Swanson, stepping out of her Pierce Arrow. Irene isn ' t a movie actress — not yet— but per- haps one day we shall see her name in electric lights, flashing on the busy streets of Sand Coulee. Blackie would most likely say with Kipling, I ' ve taken my fun where I ' ve found it ; but would go Kipling one better and add that when she didn ' t find it, she manufactured it. We can ' t say anything with regard to her faults ; for, although she may have some, we can ' t find any one to sav anything against her. General Course; History Club (21 ; Glee Club and Chorus (1, 2). m r . 2N3C »9 2 3 twenty-three

THE ROUNDUP Anna Marie Uychak Close acquaintance with Anna leads one to wonder if, perhaps, she isn ' t the reincarnation of some immemorial celebrity — Joan of Arc, perhaps. She conducts herself with a quiet dignity that is the despair of mere Common Clay ; yet she is most democratic. Her brains and talents are the envy of all who know her, but still she remains ignorant of her worth. Ignorance is bliss — true — but Socrates says, Know thyself. And now, though Anna ' s peace of mind be disturbed, she at least knows our excellent opinion of her. General Course. Entered from Belt High School (3); Business Club (3). Lillian Alice Carlson Is the average high-school studant willing to work unselfishly for his class ? Unselfish effort is a rare and great virtue, but here ' s an exponent above the average. She ' s had love affairs of more or less magnitude, al- though at present she seems untroubled and happy, but there is a rumor. You just can ' t keep track of her. Her scholarship is very good, for she has brains enough to use con- sistently the brains she has. No noticeable faults, except a little affectedness of manner, which, however, is so slight and so appropri- ate as to be very unobtrusive. General Course ; Secretary Girls ' Forum (3); Student Council (3) ; Glee Club and Cho- rus (1, 2) ; Photographic Editor Roundup (4); Girls ' Forum (2, 3): Chairman Prom Committee: The Correct Thing (2); The Prince Chap (3) ; Merely Mary Ann (4) ; The Neighbors (4). Melvin Rude Mel is one of those quiet, studious chaps, who, with his inexhaustible fund of good humor, has accomplished really worth while things in our school. He is one who does not believe in advertising, and we never hear him say a single word about himself, what he has done, or what he expects to do. Yes, Skinny is a mighty fine fellow. With his ability to put things over, he is sure to become an im- portant Something, Sometime, Somewhere. Commercial Course. Esther Elerine La Voie Esther came all the way from Pierre to go to old Great Falls High. She has not been with us long, but she has entered into the spirit of G. F. H. S. from the very first. The good fairy smiled kindly upon Esther, for she gave her two priceless gifts : One is a discern- ing mind ; the other, the art of flooding the lives of those about her with sunshine. Re- freshingly amusing, delightfully exciting, ex- ceptionally entertaining — that ' s Esther, just like a good book. General Course. Entered from Pierre, South Dakota, High School (4). l 923 twenty-five
