We defy Mr. Champlin and all his followers to analyze her humanology. Somehow she is a subject for reflection, and of f'Bedna Aekerj' it is-true, 'Still water runs deep. She is mighty sympathetic 'when one is on the blink. Her eyes are deep, dark pools reflecting sincerity, friendliness and sagacity. Possessing a very winning personality, there is no doubt butthat she will findther way suc- cessfully through life's old by-ways. y RUTH TARR' BAKER I l 'Point-.Marion, Pa.

In raflfiant lives for 1izftle.9'amZ tmilesf' From Point Marion came Mrs. Ruth Tarr Baker, a teacher, blue eyed, fair, fat and not forty. During her teaching career in Point Marion she developed a love for intellectual pu1'suits, and allied herself with the greatest of all schools-the school of self-effort. To become more efhcient in her work, she came to C. N. S., where she identified herself with all the school activities for the social and educa- tional progress of the time. In spite of the many demands from the faculty, she was al- ways mindful of her lonely and devoted hus- band, and each week found her hieing away to Point Marion, where she delighted him with tales of the lore and gayety of California school life. Upon Ruth's return to the Nor- mal School, after a visit to her home, her friends slyly crept to her room where, behind barred doors, with muflied voices, they defied the hall teacher, and she treated her guests to rich and dainty foods.

This lass possesses many charming charac- teristics which win for her a host of friends wherever she may go. Her cheerful disposition dispels all gloom, while her careful. consci- entious application to every lesson assignment proves her to be the type of a student and a teacher whose progress and achievements will be far reaclting in the years to come. Theresa took great pleasure in traveling to C. N. by auto. May the fond memories of her school days and the friendships she formed ever at- tend her through life. J. M. BUMGARDNER South l-'ork. l'a.

Jean is an anxious seeker of new things, new adventures -the latter. we believe, she received in Junior High. We have been thrilled on numerous oc- casions by her stately air and manners. and solnehow she is a 1'eal variation to our small group. tThe deep blue of her eyes reflects sparks of firel everywhere. and we are daunted in seeking to understand her further. Her fu- ture is uncertain. Surely she has developed a love for Junior High work. but. perhaps, she can match this with another love. Match our good wishes, too. LOTTIE ACKLEY Wind Ridge, Pa.

We term her a regular little sport. and if fate will have it so. we wish her optimistic nature shall be contagious. ICSTIIICII ATKINSON Canonsburg, l'a. l'Isther I'hilo1 Y. XV. C. A.g C. A.

A. f'l'irfue is like a rich stating- Iiest, plain scifi This lassie joined us at the beginning of the second semester of this year and immediately began handing us a few thrills. The interest she displays in everything is deserving: of much credit. She always performs in the class room in a manner that reflects honor upon herself. We are glad to have her in our class, since she helps balance it, with no extreme of either fun or seriousness. She came here from Indiana to seek a higher place of learning, and she cer- tainly is making use of her opportunity. Mar- garet has chosen to teach school because her love for children possesses the largest area of her heart. With such a quality combined with her strong character she certainly will shine.

To know her is to know something of sterling worth. The talent of sueeess is nothing more than doing what one can do well. and doing well whatever one does with- out a thought ot' fame. Thus it is with lluth. I-But we're a little in doubt as to whether Ruth likes her other name. Something tells us that the teaching profession will not claim her long to enhance public education. but will limit her to the proverbial class of one. ELSIE BENDER Confluence. Pa. Elsie Philo: G. A.
