Most assuredly she is a good addition to the cllass. Her favorite pastime is talking to some one, and using big words especially when she is trying to convince you of some- thing. Even if her arguments are not convincing, once she casts those big, brown, deer-like eyes upon you, you are sure to fall a victim It seems that Flopsyl' has one peculiar pastime for which we did not give her credit She permits her hat to be blown off her head into a creek and then she delights in walking along the creek following her hat until it comes near enough to the bank for her to get it. ln order that she need not spend her Sunday afternoons in such a wasting-time manner, we would suggest that she buy a yard of elastic for her hat. Flopsy has won many friends by her willingness to do anything that you might ask of her. CAsIM1zR BAU MAN KRIICCHBAUM Kricket is a good, all-around sport with many friends. He is a quiet fellow and never talks very much unless he knows whathe is talking about. He is an independent, en- ergetic worker and this is why his name appears so often on the honor roll. It seems as if the jinx was sicked upon him in history class for he had not been in class many days until he was sent out. Kass is hard to beat when it comes to football, but for other sports he has no desire, except hiking and Porch- Swing Athletics. If anybody should ask why Bunnie's Chemistry class is late in starting, see Kriechbaum. Kricket is a shark on those French vocabularies but, may- be there's a reason. When the U. S. was at war it was Kass' amibition to enter the army and work for a commission. Should this still be his ambition we hope to see him succeed and we can't see why he could not become a Pershing, a Grant, or a Dewey. ETH121, lylalc DlflARDORFF Ethel, yes, that's her real name, though many call her Deary.l' Her wavy golden hair and rosy cheeks suggest the very name. She believes in a variety of subjects, for only four cannot keep her busy. She would simply admire the study of Latin if she could only understand what Miss Huber means. But we are sorry to hear that her affections are trans- ferred fromi books to something else. VVe wonder what! Is it that Saxon roadster? Not exactly, it's that cute little black-haired laddie who drives it. A little mouse in the cor- ner once heard her remark, I never did like that name 'Deary,' but I don't olbject when you address me thus. Now we do not wonder why Ethel is continually rubbing those bright blue eyes and constantly twisting and turning to keep awake in English class. Ethel intends to be a teacher, but we fear very much that some one else will claim her before her profession.

You say you don't know this little brown- eyed maid? Well, we don't wonder at all, for Margaret is so very quiet. ln fact she keeps so in the background that even some of her classmates do not know her. But never mind, Margaret, Still waters run deep. XNe don't know what Margaret intends to do when she is graduated from the C. H. S., but we feel certain that '19 shall always be proud to claim her. Gentle Readers, use your imagination for a second. Can't you picture Margaret as the companion of some wealthy old lady, who wants some one to write her letters for her, some- one to go shopping with her, someone to read to her and en- tertain her? Wouldnit such a job just suit Margaret's sweet, quiet, unselhsh disposition? Margaret, in case you should adopt our suggestion for your future, we hope your charge will have as nice a disposition as your own. R. HAROLD HAMSHER Alas, who is this brawny lad? This is Ham from our neighboring city of Woodstock, one with the strength of a giant but the heart of a kitten, thanks for those Sophomore boys in the lunch YOOIU. Often have we looked on with ter- ror in our eyes to see some of them meet their fatal doom when the long expected struggle ended with a little scuffle and a big threat. Last fall we thought iiH2.ll1fy had deserted us. Later we learned that the was about to get command of Camp Colt by his wonderful experience as a soldier at Gettysburg Academy. But fate would not permit and the war closed. He returned to us broken in spirit, but soon regained his alacrity. He likes to tell us how much he gained by being over, but he does not tell the greatest benefit, which is bravery. Now he even dares to talk to the ladies which marks a great stride in his life. DIARY ALCIQSTA lh'llLLl-IR Mary is one of our honor students. She is very quiet and studious and always knows her lessons well. S-he is one of Miss Huber's star Latin students. But we must not get a wrong conception of Mary from her exceedingly studious habits in school, and think that she has no time for amuse- ments, for when Paul comes around in his little Saxon all other things give place. Happily for her, the old car always runs until it reaches her home even if it will go no farther, and then, poor boy! He has to grope his way three long miles through the pitch dark to his ITl2l11l!Tl3.'S house. Mary has never told us what she expects to do when she gets through school, but we are inclined to believe that if some nice young farmer offers her the job of taking care of him- self and his Saxon, she will accept the position.

From the time when Viola first entered High School, until now-a dignified Senior-she has never caused the faculty one moment of worry or uneasiness. When we look back to our Fresh- man days, how well we remember that timid little girl with the two beautiful black braids and the gray eyes, who al- ways knew her lessons, but who seemed afraid of her own voice. That was Viola three years ago. The Viola of to- day is different. Although she still has that quiet, reserved air, she is not afraid to talk, and is one of '19's best de- baters. But Viola possesses another personality, undreamed of by most of her classmates. Outside of school she lays aside her demure mask and her shyness, and becomes the biggest tease that ever walked in shoe leather. She is always ready for a good time, always light hearted and gay. But even in her play time,', Viola is caught dreaming. NVe are not per- mitted to disclose those fancies here, but we may say that we believe those moments spent in deep thought are reasons for that spirit of fairness and justice that dominates all that she says and does. .ARTHUR SENSIZNY BROWN Hello, Brownie! No he is not brown but in one sense of the word he is a f'Brownie. For he is always working and never refuses to lend a helping hand in this bee hive world of which he is such a small atom. And too,--he is Prof. Rhodes, right-hand man and he sure can doll and smear chemistry as though he had been doing it ever since he fell out of the cradle. But Pete -ah, you did not know he had another nickname but he has, and when asked where he got it he re- plied, I don't know, I guess it was born with me. Pete is rather quiet and doesn't say miuch, but, Pete, take our ad- vice and don't go around showing those pictures that you took of a certain little Freshman girl while on several Sunday afternoon strolls. Just remember, your classmates are not blind! Anyhow, we know that there is a little bit of good in every bad little boy so who ca11 tell but some day one of us may have the pleasure of listening to the Reverend Mr. Brown, D. D., LL. D. lwlaicrm KATHLl'IlCN VVICICHT If we had to pick a dozen girls out of our class with ar- i1'a01'd'i1mry rlass .rpirit we believe Maeda would be 0116 of them. In fact Maeda is one of those persons who, if the class would take a trip to the moon, would be sure to go along providing of course that some nice fellows went also. She always pays her class dues promptly and generally gets very much excited if anybody kids her about 'l9. Maeda VVeicht seems to be a very hard name to pronounce, at least she finds it so. Nothing so excites her to haughty indigna- tion as to call her Myda or Witgh. Ever since Maeda could talk, in other words since she was about thirteen or fourteen years old, she has been having trouble with her name. tShe has our sympathy, but our trouble has always been with our money. Edj VVe do not know what Maeda intends to make her life work, but we are willing to bet that in a few years she will say a magic little word with three letters in it that will please somebody and maybe herself also. Sure, Maeda, we will be glad to be your fiower girl pro- vided of course, we are still at large at the time.
