JOHN ARLINGTON. MOKTON ALBKKT. mout” “Murt is our living exhibition of good nature. If any teacher can take I lie benevolent and cheerful expression from his face we would like to know her. lie is sober only when someone tells him a joke. Nevertheless. “Mort” is an all round good fellow, always equipped with a bag of salted peanuts and usually with a tablet In his desk. Ills am- bition is to appear in vo-de-vll. “JOHN NIB” No. John, we aren’t going to tell them you were ever called a baby— that would he mean : Of course they can’t tell by this picture! Sincerely do we all sympathize with the manly hoy who through his whole life must drag an innocent face about, shielding the awful demons inside! Cheer up! Johnnie, with a few hard rubs the demons may wear through and your present countenance wear off. Besides, you have your list—we've known demons to get out by that thoroughfare. AGNUS A TWA Ti: It. How do you manage to do it, Agnes V You're nothing short of a wonder, for you always have your lessons, and never seem to he obliged to get them in about five minutes. Please don't lx embarrassed when we announce that you are unde- niably bright, although you yourself are so very modest about it. ULAUICK BALLOU. Clarice hailed from Syracuse, and joined us a year or so hack, much to our edification, and. which goes without saying, hers. Perhaps her coming from the Salt City accounts for the fact that she never was very fresh. She really was notice- ably quiet when site first arrived, but—well, the class of 1910 has wrought a great change in her. We wouldn’t call her quiet now. al- lhough she doesn't make very much racket. However, there’s no telling what will happen to her if sly? comes back for a post graduate course—we can't predict that far ahead. Kelvin.

FLORENTE BOWER. LENA BOOTH. 11 would certainly be quite n shock to some of the students If Lena should full in n recitation. Not that she Is a grind hut she always seems to know her lessons, and she never seems to he In a scrape. We are sure tlmI when Lena goes to col- lege she will be quite a star and bring honor to the Class of '10. One of the practically unknown studes in the class, hut in it and wide awake, nevertheless. If Flor- ence did not appear before chapel in her elocution stunts many people would not know of her existence In the class. She has a tine seat near the back of chapel and lets the teachers know of her presence in the way girls usually do. that Is, by chattering. MABEL BOYLEN. Mabel has the reputation of being a very studious young lady. She never seems especially anxious to display her knowledge, but when she Is called on. It's a great surprise to everyone if she doesn't make a good recitation. But It's our opinion, Mabel, that your studies aren't the only things in which you excel; there are other things besides, es- pecially music. IRENE BROK'll. A girl that exactly looks her name ! Tall, slender, light hair and blue eyes doesn't that say Irene? But. see here, 'twill never do for light hair and blue eyes to slam books around or come out of French and say naughty words! If such be the case then black hair must be your fate! We'll trust the other, though.
