Lewis easily surpasses his classmates in scholarship. He is not only a scholar, but he Is a man of strong character and sound judgments.

Gus is the philosopher of the class. He entered our class as a Senior. His college work was postponed two years due to the war. Gus is a studious boy. and with his continuous efforts he has delved into many astronomical mysteries. He is well grounded in self-control, and is always calm and concise in his judgments. One of his best charactenslics is that he will not study on Sunday nights — we all know the reason. He has not definitely decided what he will do in the future, but we know he will some day reach a conclusion, and that great things will be accomplished. (23)

Of course this doesn ' t mean that he isn ' t a student. He is very enthusiastic in all lines of colleoe activity. Wherever there is fun or jokes, he is always ready to join the crowd. It IS a pleasure to be with him and hear him converse about his past love affairs. Stuck still wonders why people ever mvcnlej such a thing as mathematics. He intends to enter the ministry.

He lakes a particular interest in the study of the classics. His patience and determination must win for him much honor and success in the iuture. 1920 (22)

' You ' re crazb. Neita, the only girl of the class, is loved and admired by all her fellow students. She is one of those rare souls who approaches everything on the bright side. She is a loyal friend indeed, very cheerful, and is always ready to stick to the class. She is a capable adviser of the class. Her greatest fault (of course to be with her class, she has one) lies in the fact that she is very fond of cutting classes. She intends to teach. We all know from observation of her scholastic work that she will make a competent teacher. Her heart now calmly resides in the University of Pennsylvania (but this will not be for long), and then, O, what will be the happiness of hearts united! Willie Adah Costner Expression Entered ' 19 ; Eumenean. An), §0 on. ' Willie, the only special student of our class, is admired by all of her friends. She has been with us only one year, and during this short time she has made many friends. Willie is very fond of creating fun and telling jokes. She seems to enjoy life wherever she may be. Dull and sad moments are things which are unknown to her. She is the one who drives the blues away and brings sunshine and happiness to every one, even on the gloomiest of days. She loves the joys of life, but is by no means frivolous. When a certain young man returns from the University, we wish them much joy. (24)
