Volume Seven THE CORRELATOR Nineteen-Ten RUTH AGAR drifted into U. High this year from Oak Park. We all consider Shorty a lucky find. Ask most any girl who frequents the Girls' Club about her and she'll be sure to say, Oh, yes, she is the one with the grand soprano voice, who entertains us every noon. We all extend our gratitude to our ever-obliging, accomplished entertainer. Girls' Glee Club, Girls' Club. EUGENE MALCOLM ANDERSON. When you see a big crowd standing in the hall you will find Mac is generally to blame. His original jokes are worth listening to, and he always has a new lot ready when his old ones give out. Mac is a dramatic star, and will be missed next year. He is active in many branches of athletics in spite of his fatness. He is a prominent member of the Boys' Club. Football Team '09, Track Team, Baseball Team. LOUISE HERRIOTT BALL, 4028 Lake avenue. Louise has been at U. High for four years and she feels thoroughly qualified to say that it is the only place to go. Next year she is bound for Wells College, where we are sure she will be as popular and brilliant in her studies as she has been here. School dramatics will lose a clever little actress who has acquitted herself so well in the produc- tions in which she has taken part. Her offices are: Secretary of Class '07, '08g Member of Junior Girls' Society, '09, Girls' Club, '10 3 Drarnatics, '09, 'l0g Daily. MIRIAM LOUISE BALDWIN, our well-known artist and housekeeper CU, has been one of the busiest workers of the Senior Class. The efforts and time which she has so liberally spent on our Girls' Club are certainly appreciated. From the very start, Miriam was always right there. She expects to enter the U. of C. next year, but aside from this fact, we all see a brilliant future for her as an experienced lady of the house.

Volume Seven Nineteen-Ten The New Road Our path before us stretches far and wide, While young and strong, and filled with newborn hope, We stand and Wait the signal of our guide, Prepared to answer true, and glad to cope With wind and rain and hail, with storm and sun, Before us in the road We all must go. And as we travel onward, every one In thought and faith and deed shall greater grow. And he shall feel the kindly breeze that blows, And if, perchance, he finds one day a thorn, The thorn to him shall show its sister rose, For out of bitter pain are blessings born. And when, at dusk, the way seems dim and far, Beyond the mist and gloom will gleam a star. IESSIE FREEMAN FOSTER. 24
