HELEN E. AIKEN, Braddock, Pa. ENID l... AMEND, Coraopolis, Pa. ESTHER AUSTIN, Meyersdale, Pa. uAke Philo Essayistg Le monde ou' l' on s' ennuig Student Board. Alien is one of the lucky half dozen seniors of the four year course. When she was a Junior she had a desperate case but he graduated and Alec could never give her affections to another Senior. She likes to teach school, talk, lecture and last, but not least, to have a good time. One of i'Ake's accomplishments is her ability to cook and to eat what she cooks. We expect to hear of Ake's model farm run on princi- ples learned in Agriculture - lgnatz Clio-Deutscher Verein. Enid is the baby doll of C. N. S., l9l3. She is a little, lovable brunette more suitable to be Tom Thumb's companion than a school-marm. She could teach kindergarten but would never be able to see over a high school teacher's desk. We almost lost track of Enid during her absence of last year but gladly welcomed her back in the Spring term. Enid is a noted housekeeper for she keeps her room spotless. Words drop like music from her lips which never speak harsh- ly. She never slams doors nor annoys teachers in the corridors. Don't buy her a balloon or she will blow away. 20 ..Red.. Clio-Deutscher Verein. Red, why? Let us take her dimensions: two by twice. She has a strong affinity for persons of her own size. People like her remind one of the time when all the world were children. She assumes everyone's troubles but never shifts her own. Her character is stable and generous. She studies hard, recites well and conducts herself properly in all places. On the dorm- itory floor she is never out of her room, never hides in closets, never burns excess electricity, in fact she obeys all of the forty-eleven rules of the institution.

ERNEST R. BOUCHER, Glade, Pa. Blanch Class Presidentg Washington's Birthday Celebrationg Philog lVlid'dler Playg Deutscher Vereing Y. M. C. A. Cabinetg T-ennis Team. Bouch is a product of a Somerset county farm. just glance at his photograph, which was taken a short time after his arrival at the Normal. You think that you behold the original angel child fand the picture is an exact likeness of him at that timej, but be not deceived. Certain departments of his work evidently had a bad influence over him, for he began sowing his wild oatsn at a pace which greatly alarmed his classmates. ln order to keep 'lBouch,' at his work and to pre- vent too many visits to the school laundry, We decided to give him a position of great responsibility. This came in the form of the class presidency. To make a long story short, he has made an excellent president, but he absolutely refuses to return that pretty little ring to the girl from Redlands. 19

Rufus Class Historian, Washington's Birthday Celebration: Philo Vice Presiclentg Deutscher Verein. Ruth is one of your tall queenly looking girls, and her hair is NOT red, it's pink, but she can't help that and it's all right for she wouldn't look natural without it. She is a most excellent primary teacher and 'lswea-rs by First grade. Also her voice is first rate but then, everything about her is. She has had a three-year school course at Dunbar and two years at C. N. S. and is one of the bright ones. Barnie Clio-Deutscher Verein. Ba'rnie's middle initial should be M, but she woulcln't have it, so we are obliged to be content with an HE. It has always been a mystery to us, what the H M could possibly stand for. Barnie is a minister's daughter and like all such, walks in the straight and narrow way. She is fond of discussing such a psycho- logical subject as hypnotism and believes in it, so bc- ware! Her work in every line has always been of the best. 21 ..Baumy.. Clio-Middler Play. This is 'Baumyf' a native of Elizabeth. Alter al- tending High School for a short time, she decided to come to the Normal lo specialize in baseball and bas- ket ball. ln these our friend has been quite successful. We a-ll feel sure that 'Baumyn will be a success- ful school teacher, if some thoughtless pupils do not take advantage of her infinite strength. Baumy rc- alizes this and intends using gentle means for winning the love of her pupils.
