Altoona, Wis.. 1.2,3 “Bushy'' is a bashful, unassuming lad who hails from Hopkins. Using excellent judgment in following up his studies he came to De I.a Salle. He remained here for two years and then cast his lot with Hopkins High for a spell. Finally seeing his mistake he paddled down the Mississippi and docked at Nicollet Island, his original source of happiness. It is evident that he will further paddle up the stream of knowledge by entering the University after graduation. Innocence and youth should ever be unsuspicious. ’'Tom” entered Dc La Salle from St. Anthony. Though he is not brilliant, yet all of his undertakings have been successful. Consistency is his motto. To most of his classmates. Francis is regarded as a quiet, unassuming youth, but to those who know him intimately, he is a witty fellow. full of life. As a student he has always reigned supreme in history. But when it came to discussing mathematics. Francis would prefer to play golf. What he says you may believe. and pawn your soul upon it!” ’ Cal'' heard of LX La Salle's widely-known reputation in education and athletics and immediately transferred his headquarters to the Island institution. He has already shown excellent qualities by his study habits and his un-reproachable character. He has an excellent foundation for “High-Pressure” salesmanship. This, combined with his prevailing sense of humor, make a winning combination for unlimited success. “Cal.” may prosperity welcome you with open arms, and be your “silent partner. But ’twas a maxim he had often tried. That right was right, and there he would abide. Page Twenty

I. 3. 4 Bill , a product of Holy Rosary, is very good-natured and ever ready to listen to a wise-crack from Mr. Theisen or his associates, usually adding a remark or two himself.

President Junior II Literary Society. President N. S. P. A. Delegate. 4 Pour short years ago this young man determined to study, be loyal, and to be friendly. Now as he leaves he has a right to feel proud of his labors, for he has fulfilled to the best of his ability his three self-made commandments. He proved to be a scholastic leader.

I am pleased to be praised by a man whom everyone praises. Thomas J. Boardman Islander. 3. 4 CamelY’ heart was as large as his body: that is. he helped anyone out who was in distress in the line of school work.

In all his undertakings we wish him success. Ay. every inch a king. Page Nineteen

Z John, we believe, should receive a medal for being a “model student. Boy! how that chap could keep quiet!

But no. just the opposite. Does he mingle with the fairer sex? And how! We have reached the crossroads. John. May success ever be your steadfast companion.
