Margaret is the enchanting song bird of the class of '36. She has charmed us many times with her nielodious voice and has been known to possess the power to even bewitch a tire and sword swallower. Not among the least of her charms is her msthetic dancing which revealed in The Piper another side to the quiet. gentle, and dignified Margaret. I PAGE 23 1

Edgar is one of our idealists for his aim in life is to be of service to the world. He has a natural gift in mechanical draw- ing and is acknowledged as an excellent draftsnian. Perseverence is his middle name. Nothing ever stands in the way of duty for hinig and no one is more obliging, Edgar has the gift of prophecy acknowledged in The Piper, when as the iniser he shouted. I told ye so. As a dealer in real estate, we feel that he would be a success, for he possesses such keen foresight along these matters that he actually pointed the way to fortune for one aspiring millionaire.

D, H. has a VVhirlwind known as the basketball quint, but the Senior Class can go the school one better: We have a whirl- uind which d0esn't need live people to sweep everything before it but one-Annie Piper. She has laid waste all the obstacles before her. whether they be the honor roll or the Ili-Rouket work, in just the same devastating manner our quintet did the other basketball teams. Annie Piper's work proves she is above. the average individual for she can talk incessantly and still do A work. In fact, she likes to talk so well that the pleasure of making last-minute speeches in chapel in the behalf of the Girls' Club always falls to her. She has demonstrated to us she can boost so well that in the near future we know some lucky person will fare well in Queen Anne's reign. I PAGE 25 l v
