WILLIAM TRUEMAN TURNER, SACD, IJ -Bill is another fellow who knows a good thing when he sees it, and therefore he decided to join the ranks of 1905. There is but one thing about him which ex- ceeds his advoirdupois,--his good nature. For two years he has been en- deavoring to keep Charlemont posted onithe Hdoinsi' at Drury and we have every reason to believe that he has succeded very well. In football he was a man to be depended upon, while the cutting out of the bicycle race meant Eve points less for Drury when he was with us. Bill will at- tend Worcester Tech, where we are sure he will make many friends. ISABEL VERNARD--Isabel is one of the quietest girls in the class and liked t by all. From her Freshman year she has quietly found her way around the building, in her mild way. For two years she came from Blackinton to brighten Old Drury, and then her great love for us induced her to come over here for good. When ever any of us have received a low mark, Isabel has been the first to encourage us and make us think we ought to have been smart. If she could help anyone, she has always been more than ready. Now she has surprised us all by telling us that she is going to Smith in the fall.

SUSIE BELLE TEMPLE--If there is any fun going on, Susie is in itg and if a hearty laugh is heard, everyone knows that Sue is near. As Miss Pilkington in the farces, she soberecl down in such a Way that We hardly knew her. Her attractions have been especially recognized by some of the underclassmen. Susie has looked on the brightest side of everything, and has never been known to be blue. It has been her greatest pleasure to see how often she could skip at intermission. She is planning to enter the Normal this fall and keep up Druryls reputa- tion there. HARRY HOBART TOWER, K rib A, HD. --Perhaps Nancy's chief distinc- tion lies in his ability to fiddle and his willingness to help along any good cause. He was manager of the track and basketball teams and was athletic editor of the Academe for a year. Harry, too, stands well with the girls, especially some of the grammar school children whom he delights to honor. Often We find him dreaming with his mind afar off. perhaps somewhere in Connecticut. He thinks that M. I. T. would about suit him if he could suit them in the exams.

FRANCES WALLEY--1-7annie's merry laugh has brightened Drury's halls for four long years. She has probed among the sciences, and has .been one of Mr. Antl1ony's star pupils. In the grammar grades she acquired the reputation of being a living statue in perpetualniotionj' and throughout her course has easily kept up this reputation. Fannie has kept us all guessing as to the new finery she would next appear in. Last winter she tore herself from our presence and went on a pleasure trip to California. This fall Fannie intends to enter the Boston Art School. and we expect her to become a great artist. At 1 LAWRENCE MILLARD WELD. W C9 A KID,-Larry has come from Clarkslour regularly. to pick up a little knowledge of shorthand and typewriting. He has applied himself diligently to his work, and is now graduating with ease. - He evidently likes the Erst part of his name if not the last, as evinced by his attentions to a certain fair maiden. Perhaps it is owing to the stress of other duties, perhaps to the distance of his paternal resi- dence, that we have not seen as much of Larry outside of school as We might wish. He has not yet decided upon his future course, but what- ever he undertakes our best wishes go with him.
