M. lfi'l'HEl. GELBACH Philadelphia, Pa. William Penn High School Her voire was ever raft, gentle and low, An exrvllent thang in a woman. This Philadelphia lassie, like Quaker maidens of old, is clemure and sweet. She can be-oh, so serious! even when stirring some mysterious sauce in Advanced Cookery. But sometimes her eyes dance and snap and we often hear her merry laugh in the corridor. FANNIE Lou GILL Roanoke, Va. Roanoke High School Southern Club .-1 rheery .rmile is quite worth while, For smiles make friends somehow. Enter Fannie Lou, chief giggler of our class. Let me assure you when there is a joke around she never sees the point but laughs when everyone else does. Her dialect is proof that she hails from the Sooth. Her persevering nature insures success in her chosen work and we all wish her good luck. Q CATHERINE GILPIN South Sterling, Pa. Wyoming Seminary Look here, upon this picture, and on this. Katy-O'-Gilpin is wiser than most of us. She took the pre-freshman course, which accounts for her A in Advanced Cooking. Had it not been for her guiding hand many of us would often have been lost. She saved us many times, especially in Chemistry Lab., and by her frowns and smiles in Methods Class. OLGA E. GOEH LER Philadelphia, Pa. State Normal School, West Chester. Editor, 1917 Lexerd It is not enough merely lo do well, you must do good. We all take off our hats to her. Well has she led us in our classes, and we gaze in awe and admiration at the astounding processes of her brain. Olga comes to us from West Chester Normal, where they apparently make a speciality of developing grey matter. She is not so much of a genius, however, that she has not a very human sideg and much as we admire her as a classmate, as a friend we love her more. HELEN Gooo Lock Haven. Pa. Lock Haven High School Glee Club Independence, now and forever. Goody is the envy of a great many of us because nothing ever worries her, and no matter what happens, she always smiles serenely. We suggest that she go into the business of being a judge as a side issue. She looked so serious and business-like when she was judge of Section D for fthe Meet. EVA GRACE Gooomsru RE Washington, D. C. Western High School Class President, '15-'16, Class Representative, '16-'17 Dramatic Society. Literary Society. Lexerd Staff There qre souls in the world which have the power of finding joy everywhere and of leaving lt behind them wlierewr they go. Here's to our patriotic representative from Wash- ington! As our Freshman Class President and our Senior Representative, she reigns supreme in the hearts of her classmates. She has led the class through all its battles, has worked for it, fought for it and brought it safely through with all flags flying. As a comrade and a friend she is beloved by all who know her and we wish her the best of luck wherever she goes.

Marjie is one of the unassuming members of our class, but a faithful, earnest worker, quick to sympathize and ready to help anyone in need. She won the second prize in the Register Essay Contest in her junior year, thereby delighting the hearts of old Section B. Ftoizanca Bemis Ettis Philadelphia, Pa. William Penn High School Basket Ball Team Athletic Representative She wears the rose of youth upon her brow. An optimist in every sense of the word. In her vocabulary the word blue does not appear. She is always merry and ready to tell an exciting tale to a weary classmate. Athletics is her hobby and we earnestly hope that her mount of the future will be as amenable to her hand as this one of her school days. CATHERINE SHINDELL Eau Lebanon. Pa. Lebanon High School Our Katey comes from Lebanon And at good sport is she, For I feel sure there is no one A better friend could be. She is always so good natured, Though she has her troubles too, But there is not a thing in this wide world For you she wouldn't do. MARY Wittano Ifisniaa Wilmington, Del. Wilmington High School Glee Club. Literary Society. Dramatic Club. Lexerd Staff She doeth little kimlnesses Which most leave undone or despised: For naught that sets one's heart at ease And giveth happiness or peure. ls low esteemed in her eyes. That Mary has commuted from Wilmington for two years and never missed an hour at Drexel, is characteristic of her punctuality and sincerity. She is so untiring in her efforts to help others and so generous to give friendly advice, that we often wonder how so small a body can contain so big a heart. Ask her how many practice classes she is teaching and you will understand how she loves her chosen profession. HELEN MARY Fai' Philadelphia, Pa. Girls' High School, Phila. Glee Club. Dramatic Club Good goods come in small partragesl' Helen is a shark in Chemistry, a star in gym, a conscientious worker and a sincere friend. When she majored in Science her classmates were very much surprised for she could have done excellent work in Arts also. Her originality will be a great asset in her services to the world. SARA FRYEK Colora, Md. West Nottingham Academy Drexel Southern Club lt is the lives. like the stars which pour down mi us the calm light of their bright and faithful bring, up to which we look and out of which we gather the deepest ealm and rouragef' One needs but to look into the wide blue eyes of Sara to read the sincerity, the calm precision, which are so dominant in her nature. Quietly she moves among us, of few words and yet, when she does speak, she says something worth while. We see for her a future as rosy as her cheeks. Page twentyfour

She goes through her work with vim and dash, Recall her biscuit lesson in Methods Class? SARAH El.IzAss'rH GREEN Media. Pa. Media High School Glce Club Self possession is nina points of Nu- law. Though this young lady declares she shares the agony of suspense and the wild heart beats experienced by others at seasons best known to the Junior Class, she never fails to maintain the same appearance of pleasant dignity. Modest is she in displaying her fund of knowledge, but she is usually there with the goods when the test comes. Loams Rosa HMS Philadelphia.. Pa. The Lankenau School Mandolin Club. Dramatic Club Sim looks, a goddess, and xhe moves, 11 queen. We are all aware of I.orine's rare talent in music, having seen her on the platform of the auditorium many times. She is versatile, frank and, with all, so sincere that she will put through anything she goes into. Lorrie is quite a scientist, this year discovering new forms of streptococci, but we all remember her experiences of last year. The lab. manual stated, Examine a few crystals through the lens.

Sally is a good student and never shirks. She is a quick, active little person and we all love her. Page lwengy-:ix
