(of the argumentative ability). For the Wittiest Hoy, Lee Peters cleared the bar at nineteen feet, Russel Winterstein, however, not to be outdone, caught onto his eoat tails as he was going over, and went along. very- one will admit that it is pretty hard to get ahead of Russel. An- other in the same class is Arnold Reynolds, who made the height quite easily on the second attempt. Outside of the Junior Apollo no one has been caught cheat- ing, but it is believed that there have been foul means and undue influence of voters on the part of such people as George Davis, Mable Kenney, Elizabeth Wise, Floyd Reynolds, Jacob Plain i who. by the way, won out unreservedly as the Best Joke», Hill Howard, Frank Quail, Hazen English, and others who, though they were often foiled in their attempts to get one of the first places, always managed to get themselves entered in every event, even though it be only as pacer. In short, they might be termed as all-around good Sports. What the Seniors Will Do Next Year Earl—Will go back to the hay. Floyd Will pick olives. Ilazen—Teach palmistry. Frank—Conduct a minstrel show. Velma—Hunt Quail (?). Rav—Become a prof, tramp. Syiva—Eat ox hearts. Harold—Take an advanced course in agriculture. Bill—Will continue to talk. Elda—Delve in the mysteries of domestic science. Louise—Will take a correspondence course in English (?). George—Will sojourn in the “Windy City.” Nelly------------------(?). Anna—Will become a professional nurse. Jennie—Will become a staid and dignified schoolma’am.

Popularity Contest Smli exeitement ns there was over the Popularity Contest had not been known for years in Cn swell: in faet so intense was the feeling that a spontaneous combustion was greatly feared by “Doc” McColl. You see it started between the Seniors and Juniors over the Prettiest (Sirl in school; the Juniors supporting Mable Davis to a man. while the Seniors declared that for looks Elda Robb had everybody in the school stopped. Things began to appear serious, when Karl Westbrook challenged Floyd Mr- Naught on to a duel, sixty paces, at daybreak, weapons, lists and invectives: the little man being guaranteed To win in tie» latter should the former prove ineffectual. So serious, indeed, did the situation become that Russel Civile, who won the contest for the Highest Prow by a nose, stepped in ami firmly declared that there should be no bloodshed, but the matter would have to be settled by arbitration. This was too much for the contestants, who consented to a re-counting of the votes, when it was found that Mable bad forged ahead. Just then Elizabeth Heard (whom the other candidates united in denouncing as a bold thing, who was always pushing herself forward» sternly declared that she was not more than one lap behind for third place, in which the judges upheld her. Her interference, however, caused an uproar iti the Freshman elan, who advanced Nellie Green as a perfect vision of loveliness. However, theie were no such disputes over the Handsomest Roy. people even going so far as to declare that there was none, which said statement, however, we consider a slander pure and simple. Look at Hazcn English, win se brown eyes, one girl was heard to declare, are too dear for anything. Also gaze on Car- lyle Rigger. Could human eyes ever behold anything more en- trancing than the pink and white loveliness there depicted? And have not certain instructresses of the past been known to rave over the heavenly blue of the eyes of the House of Reynolds? Yes. there are many of us who feel constrained to agree with Jacob Plain, that the only reason why everyone didn’t vote for him was that they were all jealous. To In; sure there were a large number of votes east for one Junior, viz., Harry Ix'slie, but the referees have decided that such a singleness of idea is impos- sible in the young and that the ballot must have been stuffed, and have consequently ruled the votes out. As to the Joiliest Girl, verily the voters must have considered this a giggling contest, for the two contestants for honors were none other than Iva McIntyre and Elizabeth Wise, Iva winning out by a particularly loud “teebee” at the end. Keep it up. girls; some day. |erhaps, this irresponsible mirth of yours will land you in the popularity list, where Velma Powell doub'ed on “Liz” Heard, the next aspirant, and tripled on the other affec- tion triflers.” Mattie Gardner. Svlva Wixon, Mabel Kenney. Rachael Sehoctlc, Frances Mathews, Lillian Sample, and Louise Brother ton. From the bent of public opinion as to the most | opular boys, we fear that next year the school will he left disconsolate, since the votes were cast pretty solid for three Seniors. The winner, by his o tiers and honors ye shall know him. our President, Floyd IN y u' V. with his side partner. Frank Quail, only four votes be- Tiind, while Rill Howard came up rather out of breath, having given more attention to other kinds of training, still four votes in the rear. Love for a good story deters while honesty prevails, so we admit that a few votes were east for such -Juniors as Ray Flynn, Colin Campbell, and even for such unspeakable Soph mores as Eluxie Putney (be of the big feet) and Jacob Plain
