Robert is valedictorian of the class, having an average of over nine- ty-five for the four years. He is secretary of the class, and advertising manager of the class paper. To him belongs most of the credit for the success of this paper. Harvard 'will gain two excellent students when Mears and Fowler make their entrance. Mears, by class vote, is the most :studious and the most punctual boy in the class. Israel Miller has played in the orchestra for four years. Before long we may hear of a second Kreisler.

She is noted for her soft voice and blushes. We know that her voice is Qsweet, for haven't we heard her sing in the Glee-zClub, and on other occasions?

16 MEMOIRS Kate all over. If you happen to be looking for her when therevis a dance in the vicinity, the chances are that you can find her there. . Edna Applewhaite Davis is the author of the words to the class ode. She has a giggle that is positively contagious. If there is laughter and disturbance in class, you may be certain that Edna is to some degree responsible. ' She was voted the jolliest member of the class. Edna intends to be a stenographer when she leaves school. If one can judge from her work so far, she will be highly successful. Alice Veronica Donoghue, a member of the exclusive Back Bay set, is a jolly girl. 'She is always ready to help out whenever there is a good time on hand.

' Edith Frances Livermore has lately taken up the study of screw-driver manufacturing at Harding University. She is rapidly becoming an expert in this subject. Edith appears very quiet. but something in her eyes and smile makes us doubt it. She took part in both the class play and the musical comedy Springtime Olive Josephine Lockwood is a good cook and a fine dress- maker. It is good to know that there is one more lucky man that won't have to worry about indigestion. Olive is noted for her originality in designing gym suits.

18 Mmioms A member of our class. In spite of his retiring disposition, however, C-ardner is well liked by' all 'of' his classmates. His work in shorthand is deserving of mention. Roy Emerson 'Morse, our historian, is first sergeant of Company A, winner of the first prize in the recent prize drill, president of the Pro Merito Society and business man- ager of the class paper. Socially, Roy is a regular butter- fly. His banjo solos are highly complimented. Roy was president of the class during our first two years, and treas- urer during our third year. The class voted him the best all round boy in the class. John Maurice Murphy apparently does not know that the class play is over, for he is still waiting for some one to say Why don't you speak for yourself, John? In our fresh- Iigiaifl year, John won the bronze medal in the Boys' Cadet ri . Hendrick Atwell Olney, our former secretary, is a ser- geant in Company A. Little can be said of Hen for he is not a speaker of the limelight. However, those who are fortunate enough to know him have a profound liking for this retiring member of '22, Hen is such a droll, imagin- ative fellow. He says that he is particularly fond of winter, but that he would like summer just as well if only we could have Snow then. Norton John Phillips, or Professor N. J. Phillips, if you please ffor isn't Norton the best informed pupil in Historyl, is but six feet tall with his hair parted. For vivid imagina- tion, he has few equals. If you doubt it, ask Ham. Emily Helen Roberts is an orator of accomplishment, being the winner of second prize in the recent Singleton Contest. Emily has won two medals in the girls' prize drills. and a sweater in the Girls' Interclass Athletic Meet. Her disposition is one of the best to be found, and she is the possessor of one of those smiles that you can't resist. The class greatly honored Emily by voting her the prettiest girl, the best bluifer, the best all around girl, the best dancer, the most procrastinating member, and the society belle. Carl Scheffy hails from the noted Coal Village. Upon his arrival in Mansfield High he was a wee bit bashful, but all traces of timidity have long since disappeared. Carl, like many other members of our class is interested in radio, but his chief hobby is music. Popular songs may come and go, but 'iMargie remains Exit favorite. -
