Willard takes keen delight in fussing the girls, and making A grades. His jolly good humor has won him many good friends. If you dont believe it. ask Tubby. MARGARET HODGE Do wc like Peggy? Well. I guess. And we feel sure She'll make a good Bess.'' May she return from that far-away shore With her heart and her hand all safely in store. PAUL CORNWELL Hark! List to the foot prints! 'Tis the onrush of a victorious army. We wait patiently for the heavy tramping army but Paul Cornwell, alia Soak. i» the only tramp that comes into view. His heavy footprint is well known to the teacher in charge but this -ante weight has stood him in good stead upon the football field. This excellent young man pursues a German course, disdaining the aid of the alluring pony. As a tenor in the Glee Club he ranks among the highest, taking A with ease.

NELLE WINN. There is a legend to the effect that Nellc once lost her good humor. If she «lid r.obody ever succeeded in finding it. Talk about an accomplished rag artist When she play, your feet can t keep still. What will the Glee Club do without her next year? One shudders to imagine. BYRON MAXWELL. Hat. off to Ityron! If it were not for Max, the reputation of the Seni«ir boy tv as true lady killers would be very low indeed. This Beau Brummel set the fashion for the school especially in the way of neckwear where he certainly is original. This young man came to us from Marshall and we hate to see him go as bad a. we were glad to see him come. This other .light little maiden—this is Marie-Miss Mullins. I mean. Isn't she nice. So pleasant and friendly yet «,uitc shy. She is quite as necessary to the Semi- Chorus with her tine alto voice as he is to our class. The Brooks brothers are well known members ..f the Senior Class but it is O.car that i the star ..f Mi». Millers History Clas .

BRUCE BUCKLER Buck hasn't been with u long, but he has made good alright, lie carries five studies, a glin that wont rub off. and his classic head with ta«e and eclat. Although a gc: eral tar, his spiels in Dcutsch atjd English arc the most famous. RUTH MALLORY. Is there any one who doesn't know and like Ruth, or Blondy. She is in. the Semi-Chorus and take part in the cla play, with a grace and sweetness all her own. Arriving from the wilds of Decatur two years ago, she ha made firm friends, w ho will tearfully hid her adieu. CLAUDE WILKINS. Although he comes from the wild jungle, he has been with I . II. S. long enough to become thoroughly civilized. Shorty the Shark’ reason for coming to school i that he may apply the principles of Geometry, Physics and Chemistry to his f-rm and to do all he can toward raising the farmers' standard. On account of his noble ideals he has no time for smaller trirtes but outside of school he is one of the jollies! fellows in the class. “That silvered tongued orator. —Buckler.
