His activities at Drury, however, would refute the conclusion one would draw by not believing in that famous maxim, Looks are deceptive .

But whatever Gert does, all the luck and best wishes of 19Q4 go with her. FLRDIN AND GAGLIARDI Gag UA nd when lze spoke his words did gather thunder as they ran.

Nothing gets past 'SGag g he is wide-awake every minute. And work? He lives in it, while Gag and his studies are never cleft asunder. But above all, he makes friends with everybody, and his enemies haven't yet been born. Fred is the kind of boy who gets his work done first, no matter what the cost, and he is one who would b-e safe to anchor to in a pinch. He is going to help uphold the honor of Drury at VVilliams next year, and it will be safe to predict that he will add a little to it. 241
