Edward Kerns- Eddie , Handsome In my every gesture there is individuality. Eddie is one of the giants of the class. He was a foot ball man, captain-elect until he broke his shoulder, and left for Annapolis Prep. They call him handsome, but is he? He likes the women, but Helen excels them all. Eddie is the political boss of the class. He tried to run the election for the Senior year, but was fooledg Charlie', and his friends beat him to it. VVe feel he will succeed. Edward McLaughlin- Ed , Mack , Luke How dry I am. Edward got his first taste at Reading, and his last CU at Yuengling's, When he served on the firing squad. He also is a woman hater UD, having a different one for each night in the week. First it is Gladys, then Quinnic, then Elsie, then Mack and finally Ginger, Luke was so taken up with the females that he did not have time for practice for the Senior play. Luke first entered into the theatrical world when he wasinterlocutor in the min- strels. He is the orator of the class also. We wish Ed much success as a statesman or as a lover. H Homer Dolan- Angelface Silence is more precious than words. This is Homcr's motto. He is quiet and industrious, being thebest student in the class. Homer is also a great musician, at least he thinks he is. Homer, although he appears bashful, is not so at all. He was one of the first to get his partner for commencement. Frankie was confident of success in that direction, but he was sadly mistaken. Ada and he journey from Yorkville, but not together. Homer will some day be a second Robert Braun. 17

Etta Heisler- Eddie At whose sight all the stars hid their diminished heads. Etta was one of the girls who had her hair cut after an attack of the ilu, but now her hair is long enough to wear it up and she is feeling very much grown-up just now. Francis and Etta are inseparable friends, since Francis lives in the Hats. She makes brilliant recitae tions in history, and we are sure she will use her talents out of school as Well as she did in. Lester Ost- Les , Milk Early to bed and early to rise makes a buy healthy, Wealthy and wise. Les is the milk-man of the class and thus one of the early risers. Les is also one of the small members of the class, though small only in stature, for he is the brains of the class. One cannot help but wonder how one small head could carry all he knew. He is the friend of everyone, always willing to lend his knowledge for the betterment of those not so brilliant. We feel that Les will make a success in his future life. , Grace Otto- Gracious And only fifteen. Our last year was brightened by the presence of this young lady from Tremont. She is a very accomplished singer and can reach high HE . She was to have taken part in the vaudeville, but a severe cold prevented her doing so. She shows good school spiritC?j always rooting for Tremont's great basket ball team. Her ambition is to become 'a famous prima donna. 16

Doris Stevenson- Jamey t'How far that little candle throws its beams, So shines a good deed in a naughty wcrldf' Doris is quiet in disposition, but those times are few and far between. She is always ready to lend a helping hand in short-hand. This subject takes up most of her tinie. Doris studies at night and her whole study period. This indicates she is very studious in order to be of equal mental calibre to her partner. Franklin Tanner-- Issie HB9 off with the old love before you are on with the newf' Yes, Frankie, this is good advice. Ladies and gentlemen, we have here-only the editor of our paper and deacon of the church. ln Issie's Freshman year he had a terrible case on Dorisg the Sophomore year he had a case on M. R., in the Junior year he had Ada Paul, and in the Senior year his affections fell on Lois. VVe wonder where they will land next. Issie'l was a First Lieutenant. He had many falls-even in love-and one day it was rumored that Frank was to be reduced to the ranks. He was terribly excited, as he coveted his position, but it all came to naught and he is still First Lieutenant. NVe wish him success in his future position as President of the P. R. R. Marian Morrison- Bunny filudge not a woman from the town she comes from. Marian Morrison brings the faculty news, as she accompanies Mr. Frederici daily from Auburn. She and Marie are very staunch friends, and together during noon hour can be seen picking styles for their own home towns. Marian has very pleasant and winning ways and will go through life winning new friends. -18
