His Kappa Essay too was a treatise on that subject. J , He has rather a Weak voice, at least so We should judge from the diminutiveness of the noise which he makes in the class room. We must not, however, judge the quality of his work by the size of his voice, since he is a veritable shark in chemistry.

RAY NORCROSS MARGARET M ULCARE Mill is one ol Drury's loyal fans , as there has been very few games ol' any kind that she has missed. She has also always been on hand at the dances, showing that she has many admirers among the other sex. ln French class she has had a great clealof difficulty in making herself heard. however this trait isn't in evidence elsewhere. The coming generation will be enlightened by the knowledge she has obtained from Drury, as she expects to grace the Normal halls next fall. , f' X Ray is one of those yery quiet boys who never disturbs the universe with the noise of his earthquakes. He has been attending school in the same build- ing for quite a number of years, for he entered our class from Drury Grammar School in 1908. That was at a time when Drury Grammar consisted of more than its present first grade. Ray has come along as placidly as if lessons were the least of his troubles. He is one of a very few Seniors, with whom it is impossible to pick a quarrel. He may have a temper, but he never showsit. Ray is undecided as to his future career. lllhatever it is, we are sure it will be an honor to our class and Alma Mater. 26

He played in the school orchestra as long as it existed. and also helped to furnish musie at the meetings of Der Deutscher Vert-in. He confesses that at one time he was very scared that he would have to be a senior next 'ear too, but we are ha my to say that his di vloma came to him safely, after l l . - all. He says that he's been going to Drury lor twelve years. and. as he doesn t know quite where he'll go next year. he may add another year to this record. and take a P. G. MARION PLUMB lVlarion has known Drury a few years longer than her classmates. as her grammar years were spent in the crumbling walls of Xoah's Ark . During her Sophomore 'year her ability as a student was brought out in the highest degree, as she was Mr. Phillip's old stand-by, the had very few as you will remembe-r.D This training stood her in gnd stead during the rest of her high school course, and at graduation she had the honor of being chosen to speak because of her scholarship. Next fall she expects to take a P. G. at Drury. is
