WVe1l, Freddy, you here, too. NVell, you know, fellows, he is the best tragedian in the school as well as Charleston champ. Freddy', is often seen driving a Ford, and we were told from his experience with these cars, together with his stage ability, he is going to write a play entitled, You Drive It Yourself. Fred is a man of few words, some of these being checks, please, step right up this way, please, ten cents. Fred, we understand, is going to study medicine. NVe hate to see you leave us, but we know that soon you will he hack as a. full-fledged doctor. N. EUGENE KEIFER-Commercial uGene,n nAbie,u uKeif,rv cnkedn Class Base'Ball, 4, Camera, 44. Red may be a iitting name for some fellows, but it was misplaced when used in connection with Gene Any person wearing glasses is totally lost in trying to Gnd the one red hair on his head, while the keen eye must be strained severly to locate it. Keef will not go astray over any small setback, for he is an ardent church man. Just recently he was promoted from ushering people to their pews to a seat on the choir bench. Fortunately, the choir is a large one and his sweet voice is drowned out in the chorus. Xvhen Gene sets his mind on something it is useless to try to stop him in his enterprise. Should he carry this trait along with him, Abie will surely attain his goal in life.

TI-IE EPITOME 25 e- :V '7-7 - - 7 Nf f :gi 'QQW fx E I I : '7 IBB . . E l 4 W -+- C . fe , or 'E X Willard James Irwin :Burton Randolph Jones WILLARD J. IRVIN-Latin Scientific Willie, Irvie, Slats Philos, 1, 2, 3, 4-5 Radio, 3g Hi-Y, 4-4 Thespians, 2, 3, 4. Coming to the next member of our class, we notice in the features of little VVillie a m-ost studious expression. lVas this caused by his too large an interest in his lessons or by his too closely following the mystic adventures? Nevertheless, the fact that Willie is an extensive reader is often proved by his allusions to material read. Belonging to the Philos, Will has often distinguished himself as a speaker-these latent powers of his, we think, were lately in him developed by a certain girl of Shillington. However, WVillard is well-known, gaining for himself the reputation of being a good sport at all times. lVe have not been able to ascertain for sure the vocation he is going to follow, but, whatever it is, we wish him the best of luck.

Taking a full course of time, Jonesie has just recently decided that he would graduate with '27 Feb. He has been in both '26 Feb. and '26 June an equal num-ber of times, but finally decided that '27 Feb. was the better choice. Every year he establishes a new record for being late. VVe think it's because-well, we'll let you think that one out, as we're not quite sure and we don't want to mislead you. XVe're not quite sure what he's going to do, but we know he'll make good. Go to it, Burton, we're in back of you, wishing all the fortune we can on you.

Kiefer LESTER KEIPER-Latin Scientific Kip, Keip, Les, Flaming Youth Behold! lt was on account of the accompanying map that the publication of this book was delayed. It was only after great efforts and much threatening that the photog- rapher was Gnally persuaded to risk his camera on our Flaming Youth. Les'l is one of the five Latin sharks of Mr. Bingaman's Latin class. Kip has no relation with the opposite sex iso he claimsj, but you know the old story, They all fall sooner or later. On the level, though, Les is a mighty fine fellow, and we know he is bound to succeed in whatever he undertakes to accompilsh. So long, old boy! EDWARD H. KIEFER-Technical uEd,1l uliddien Camera Club, 1, 2, 35 Reporter, 3g Cap and Gown Committee. Coming now to the iron man of our class, Eddie, the Mighty, we see in his features that grim determination of becoming the master of iron fin the iron foundry of his faizherj. During his term in school he has gained for himself, by his readiness to do or try to do whatever was asked of him, the name of being a good sport, a hard worker. Although Eddie has always been one of the m-ost cheerful men of our class, we have noticed an excess of gaiety on his face since our Frolic, iVe wonder whether this could have been aiected by a certain Caroline, whose dancing Che has confessedj he has enjoyed very much of late. VVell, Eddie, you have proved the qualities in yourself to be of the best, so we wish you the best of success in whatever you take up!
