Harry L. Ice Mr. Ice started his college career at the president ' s home in his famous rough house manner. He is a man of great intellectual power and won the Sophomore- Fresh- man dehate in 1910, but when the smoke had rolled away we found him closely held in bonds of matrimon.y. jNIr. Ice has shown his ability as an orator in his Junior ora- tion. We predict a great future for Harry as a preacher. Richard JIerryman We are .iust a little non-plussed in introducing to you this esteemed gentleman from Wellsburg. He does not stay with us long enough for us to become very familiar with him. However, he is one of the most hospitable mem- bers of ovir class and makes up for his being away from us so much by having tlie Greek and German clubs to meet with him in his liome. We are proud to have liim in our midst and liid him Gluck auf in his pursuit of life. JIiLDRED Stewart iliss ilildred Stewart, left a gentle parsonage to grace tlie class of lf(12 with her winsome personality. Her quiet and unobtrusive ways have made her many friends. Her features are composed and characterized by placid sere- nity save only when they are lighted up witli her ever readj ' and pleasant smile. As the sky at twilight, ealm with the sulxlued rays of the departed sun, reflects from its broad expanse the radiance of the dying day, so her counte nance is ever adorned with a glowing tran(|uility from the inward enjoyment, presumably, and lingering recollection of the bli,ss of biz experienced during her sophomore year.

George J. Owens Periuit us witli pride to introchice our class president, George Owens. A preaelier, considered one of the best. A debater, won in the Freshman-Sophomore delsate. An ora- tor, where is Ids superior? A liizzite (for such a good- looking young man could not be otherwise) but not in Bethau ' : we can only conclude that in Pittsburg, his former home, dAvells this fortunate maiden. Why shoiild we not be proud of our President 1 Roy Super. Slifer who is better known as the book-store man en- tered Bethany five years ago clad in a six dollar suit of green clothes. Notwithstanding his burden of years he has risen to the position of manager of the book-store assum- ing the many cares of business and ' ' Biz . Although he hails from ilaryland yet lie is closely identified with In- diana. On account of biz-ness he made a trip to this place and from the outward appearance it looks as if he will receive the contract for which he went. The class of 1912 is very proud of its bizzy business man. Hazel Mercer There is a gift beyond the reach of art, of l)eing silently eloquent . Speaks little in English, little more in French : fears no living creature save man. Of rare merit, of true loyalty, of sincere friendliness, she has helped many and won for herself a place in the respect and esteem of Bethanj ' students. Tweiiti six

George Cakl IIetti er He is lietter known as Jimniie . Tlie man with tliat iiieny, tantalizing, infectious, contagions, captivating, chuckle. He has won a place of honor in the social whirl because of his genial nature and liis musical ahility. As president of the Sophomoi-e class lie proved his aliility to defend the rights of others, and as a diligent inemher of the second team he helped to keep the varsit.v guessing. As an ardent reader of the Altoona ilirror he is a daily visitor at the post office, that he may follow up the varying career of the Altoona Baseball league team, Witli his social, musical, and business accomplishments we can easily ijredict for him a very successful career. PjUZABETH IjUTE Miss Bettie Bute is a typical Nebraskan blonde, five feet three inches high, with two conspicuous dimples in her cheeks. Her age is not known. She is graceful in style, gentle in disposition, elegant in manner, and cour- teous in expression. JIu.sic is hei ' holiliy ; ratching Eals her favorite .sport. tf,(i. ( ' . Xeu. Neil is often caught wool-gathering but as yet his talents are undiscovered. He started witli the ambition to become a minister but his horoscope was not cast that way. He was inveigled into taking a business course in Angola, Indiana, luit finding he was .still not under his lucky star he left old tri-state and came to Bethany. We all — even Prexy himself — often wonder what would liave l)c- come of the college were it not for this noted bursar whose chai ' ming manner lies in his sarcasm. He is a .strong admirer of the opposite sex and thinks he knows a pretty girl when he sees her. He fir.st began talking Biz in his cradle and has kept it up ever since. We expect to see his business ability win for him a great future. IweiUji eight
