WILLARD BARTON DAVIS He is complete in feature and in mind With all good grace, to grace a gentleman. This celebrity has brown eyes and black hair, and his chief joy and de- light is motoring, we suppose, on Felix street, as he is often seen there. Al- though Willard enjoys a good time as much as anyone, you can count on him for his share of the work, particularly at Senior parties. lVillard's talent for the violin is well known, as he has been a valued member of our famous orchestra all through his High School course. VICTORIA DUNCAN fCli0j Daughter of the gods, divinely tall and most divinely fair, This blue-eyed young person is most decidedly pretty, the class of 1911 having signified its approval of her appearance by voting her class beauty. She is very fond of tennis in the cool, gray hours of the dawn but thinks that algebra at that time is even more delightful. She has not decided upon her future career, but we can imagine what it will be. STEPHEN A. DORSEY Football '10, Baseball '08, The brutal game of football. Chick first began to cackle in Ogden, Utah, and is an Irish youth with brown eyes and hair, the latter trimmed in football style. He was a decided factor in the success of our football team, his punting being a feature of every game. He says he finds sleeping a comfortable and profitable pastime, but no one ever noticed the slightest symptoms of drowsiness about him, as he is always awake enough to go through the other elevenu with ease. Stephen is still young and intends to make some kind of hit in college.

JAMES cARLE'roN CLAY tA.N.P.j Friemls. Romans, Countryman! Patrick Henry first saw the light of day in thelittle burg of Dearborn, Mo., sometime during the nineteenth century. Early in life he became noted for his use of polysyllables and very often shocked his kindergarten teacher by his flow of oratory and eloquence. This, however, seems to run in the family, for one of Carleton's ancestors was the much famed Henry Clay. He is un- settled as to his future intentions, but his flow of language combined with the fact that he is an ardent Democrat gives us an idea of the Field he may enter. FLORENCE JEFFERSON COLT Fair is she to behold, that maiden of seventeen summers. Florence is one of those happy girls who is always ready to have some fun. Anyone can see this just by looking at her dimples and mischevious eyes. During her High School course she has become a favorite among her schoolmates and teachers. She is a good cook, as some in the class know, although the fact is not confined to the class alone. She intends to enter Stout Institute and become. a Domestic Science teacher. f gl ROBERT LENOX CRISVVELL Sti1l. achieving, still pursuing. It was in the early nineties that Lenox honored the metropolis of St. joseph by becoming a citizen of said community. He is at the present time a staunch Missourian and a faithful supporter of the blue and white. He does not State his future hopes or intentions, but since he delights in chemistry and easily wades through some of Mr. Fisher's problems, we would infer that his future career is in philosophical research.

RALPH BENNING ELLIOTT Never are his spirits riledf' When years have revealed their treasures, no doubt, the name of Ralph Benning Elliott will be among the famous ministers. Ralph is a good Indian, and we are sure he will fulfill his mission well. He claims to be a descendant of Adam and Eve, but we doubt it, for he says German-Sc0tch- Irish blood is in his veins. Park College is his next residence. Ralph first made his appearance in joetown on February 17, 1894. He is almost two yards high and has blue eyes and brown hair. EDA SARAH FERIIERT In thy face I see the mark of honor, truth and loyalty. Eda's favorite study is cooking. Her favorite part of the school build- ing is the cooking labratory and after a course at Stout Institute, she intends to become a Domestic Science teacher. Lucky will be her pupils and still luckier the man who finally wins her, as anyone who has been a guest at one of her cooking class luncheons will gladly testify. , V ax- fi? ii' i THOMAS VVILFRED FIFE fA.N.P.j He rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race. VVillie was born in this great metropolis and is of Scotch and English descent. He names Mithridates as the most famous of his ancestors. His favorite amusement is walking, but with whom, he has failed to inform us. He was a member of the 1911 track squad and also of the business staff of the Senior Annual. He distinguished himself as an actor of tragedy when he Played Whiskerandos in The Critic. He intends to enter Missouri University.
