DOROTHY THAI NOR. She's just a sweet little girl, that’s all. Has a special liking for geometry and Russell Mitchell. She’s a busy little body and accomplishes a great deal by her early material visits to school and her brisk stepping after she arrives there. She is very much interested in high school events and is an active member of the Senior class. STEPHANIE STROUT. Her motto is “Laugh and grow fat.” We wonder why she doesn't live up to it. We wanted to be original and thought we wouldn’t mention Donald in this but necessity demands. There’s scarcely anything to say about Stuffy but that “she’s h.s’n and he's her'n.” LENA M’FARLIN. She looks wire but we don’t know, she says so little. As she towers above us, it is hard for us to realize what she is thinking. If she doe n’t swallow her lead-pencil during a recitation some day, she will be a credit to the High School. Lena hails from Williams and we are sure it has felt a loss in her coming to Bedford. LOIS HARRISON. She’s a Harbison, too, but of a different type. She has vivacity and charm and many an admiring mind holds still the vision of her, gracing the position of toast-mistrers at last year’s Junior Banquet. She is liked by all her classmates and surely has an interest in all class affairs. COLLETTE JOHNSON. A quiet, demure little girl who never has much to say. We understand. however, that she is an ardent suffragette. 23

r 7AIJENE JOHNSON. Hero’s a typical high school girl, full of fun, not over fond of study, and yet a worthy student of high school. She is especially fond of mathematics and is contemplating a summer class this year, llene Mitchel and Dorothy Trainor will he her assistants. RAYMOND MAHER. Yes, he does look meek. But once let his fiery debating penetrate your ears and Raymond will gain a new place in your esteem. He hasn’t found a girl in high school yet to suit him. but that doesn't prove that he’s hopeless. He’s some baseball player. DOROTHY BI.ACK BERN. She’s another one of our artistic walkers. Dorothy is a little timid and is inclined to blush when the boys swarm around. She likes the girls though and they like her too. A violent attachment between Dorothy and Wendell has been rumored but at present we’re not prepared to give details. Dorothy is a good student so keep up your good reputation. Follow this good advice. HREESE STEVENS. He is gradually coming down to Bedford ways. He’ll probably wear a hat by next year. Don’t judge too harshly, he came from New York. Does he like Gretna? Does Gretna like him? K ATH ER1N E ST ESSE I Perhaps ’tis her name which so often causes the melancholy look on her face Brace up Katherine! Do you notice that Eugene seems to have brought added zest to her countenance, her step and her whole being? She is about as good a walker as Helen and is contemplating walking to Mitchell some day. just to be walking you know, although we have heard that there are one or two nice boys in that town, anyhow. 22

LERA HARRISON. She is naturally a little reticent so we are not able to write a volume on her. She is, at any rate, human, for she frequently laughs at our jokes, thereby showing her appreciation of her fellow classmates?. HELEN MARTIN. She’s just a little longer than her name sounds. Walks through the assembly room as if Russell .Mitchell were after her. Has become prominent in debating, and also at basketball games because she comes with “Ray” Wible, and he can yell. Has a class in fast walking. Love-smitten youths, beware! Motto—Honors Wait at Labor's Gate. Class Flower—Violet. CLASS OFFICERS President.......Rollie Blackwell Vice President . Florence Emery Secretary-Treasurer............ ..........Shirley Armstrong. 24
