MARGARET E. DRISCOLL l Who is't can read a. woman? One would suppose by Mar- garet's serious and thoughtful countenance, that she is a great student and a deep thinker, but do not deceive yourself, dear friends. Of course, Margaret studies, every one does, that goes to High School-but not , more than it is necessary. She f ' enjoys spending the time, after school, at the movies, In the evening, she visits Grace. Upon leaving school, she will take up a course in domestic science, for it is rumored, ahout a certain St. Clair youth, knowing Margaret. LEO. R. GORMAN My only books were XV0l1lu1l'5 looks, And follies all they taught mc. Gorman takes everything as it comes, if he makes a flunk he grins and bears it, and the world is none the wiser. With a sweetheart in every port and love letters just showering upon him, Leo can hardly arrange his love affairs, so that he can go to school daily and get to dances nightly. In the wee small hours of the morning, the Saint Clair car often hears him home, For he is a jolly good fel- low. Some day, when he gets rich, Leo is going to buy a rolling chair, so that he can be wheeled up and down Centre Street while he studies the styles, and winks at all the stunning ladies that pass.

EVELYN A. DAVIS 't'l'lrc- 1-'rientls thou hast, and their :uloption tried, Grnpple thein to thy soul with hoops of steel. l So Evelyn thinks, and verily doth she put it into practice. She is fond of all the fair sex, but alas, like l-lilma, thinks boys are only good or- naments, also, that it is time L our country had a woman rr ruler. Evelyn is a violinist and singer of no small merit, and perhaps some day, will astonish the world with her talent, by becoming the most noted of all musicians. She is also a great Latin, French, German and English scholar, and makes brilliant recita- ftions with little or no preparation. MARY L. DONOUGH 77 Mae Knowledge is more than equivaleiit to force. Mary is in pursuit of knowledge. Everyday she comes -down, from Frackville, to grind in P. H. S., and always wears goggles, for fear she might miss something. She is deeply interested in gymnastics and attends every meet- ing of the G. A. C. At times, Mary comes, to school all t done up in her Sunday clothes, looking sweet and wearing the glad smile. Next day, she has a wonderful story to tell, about the swell time she had at the dance. Next year, if not married before that time, Mary is going to Wilson and show the people, what a Frackvilliaf can do. 22

.convalescing under her cheer- L MARIE GILBERT USO Coy and dGI11l1l'C.u Well, l should say! Little would you think this shy, little- maiden has great ambition of becoming an English teach- erf? JH She is persevering and , perhaps, her efforts will be re- ? warded, by the time she is graduated. She refuses, abso-- lutely, to be sounded about her' - past history, so we'll have to let the readers draw their own conclusions about her. Entered our class during the second year from the city of Cressona. In all, a very quiet and Coy maid. LEAH HERBEIN Hsueii I have the funniest thing to tell you. QI don't look as if I could laugh by my picture but you'd better not get me started.J ' h Sue makes the most of everything, when she eats, she eats, when she laughs, she laughs, and when she hikes, she hikes, with a vengeance. Leah loves nature and most any time, you can Hnd her trying to get a crowd to follow her, into the country. She likes der deutscher sauer krout, baked beans and apple butter, and there's many ways of getting them. Some- L times, its profitable to smile on the farmer himself, and then again, it may be more favor- able, to offer to wash the dishes for the housewife. Her ambition is to be a nurse. No doubt, Leah will meet her af- -Hnity someday, in a rich, handsome youth, who will be ful smile. I 24
