We have here a quiet young Miss who came to our school via Riverside and No. 3. She Is well equipped with smiles and a very good dispo- sition. Anna has no especial concern for masculine students, although she and Jimmie Murray (’Oil) may usu- ally he seen sauntering up the walk about K ;. 9 a. m. She lias much abil- ity as an elocutionist and lias enter- tained us very agreeably witli her selections. Her blonde hair is not the least of her charms. IM'TI I I. METZGER. Our athletic marvel: she ride» horseback like a Bellerophon; plays ten- nis till her opponents drop away from sheer exhaustion; were it per- mlssable for young ladles to indulge in baseball. Ruth would come for- ward : above all however, is her un- precedented ski 1 in shooting baskets from any corner of the held. Resides all these marvelous Teats (keep it dark) she can balance anything on tin end of her nose! OirVft Henkel ll ill Team. DANIEL ME EC AI1Y. “1)AN” Dan is one of the ornaments of (lie back of chapel, where his ready smile may lie seen at any time of day. lie is a student in every sense of the word but one. that Is, he knows enough not to prepare his German on the days he isn't going to get called on. Otherwise, he is a very industrious young man and is seldom heard from.

r ELIZABETH MAGEE “1IKS8” Whom could we timl more fitting to place opposite smiling Louie MeCanna? “Bess” was never known to exist with- out one “steady”—dead gone; half a dozen hangers-on and a dozen admirers. Withal site is a good sport; never was known to miss a ball game iShe lias passes). She always has a smile for all her friends. Her only fault is that she has other than Academy beaus. We all hope that we may remain among her admirers Kappa Sigma. LOlIS MeCANNA. “i.nciK Handsome, smiling Louie MeCanna.

Almost any time when you happen to see Mary around school, you’ll hear her say. “Honestly. I don’t know anything. However, don’t have much faith in that, for she usually manages to get through things some way. Hut no matter what her trials and tribulations, she takes them all cheerfully, and travels around with a happy smile on her face. No doubt Mary will get all the enjoyment possible out of life, and. after she leaves 10. 1«’ A., live happy ever after. 10 LIZAI i 10'T11 Me 1)( VIOLL. “LI55ZIK” She is one of the few really stu- dious ones and she proves this fact in each of her c asses. “Lizzie.

She intends to enter Wellesley next fall and probably will make her mark there as honor stude. She is fond of tennis and can give any fellow a good. sti’T set. Adelphla. I

ALICE MFUPIIY. There is no getting around the fact that Alice is a quiet little maid. Even when she recites in class we have some difficulty in hearing what she says. Naturally, it is believed that this must be due to shyness on her part, for she blushes very, very easily. However, there are enough people around school to make a racket, and a few like Alice are needed to balance them. OLIVE NEWELL. Olive is known to be a regular shark in school. Ever since her Freshman days she has had that reputation. She never fails to have her notebook tinished on time, and the less brilliant students V) are always eager to borrow them, and make up their own belated work. There are lots of other nice tilings we'd like to say about Olive if there was time. She lias made many friends in E. F. A., and when she graduates, ami pursues learning yet further, she will surely keep right on making them, wherever she goes. JENNIE A. MYKR. JANE” This charming young Miss, our sweet little Jennie. Her giggles are few, her virtues are many ; In Vergil she translates with rhythm poetic. In chapel, with boys, she is really magnetic. In Who’ll (let It?” she revealed her powers as a mimic. In the delightful role of sweet Cyn- thia. the cynic: If you wonder at the laziness and sweetness of this lamb. The answer's in her initials, just look 1 J. A. M. L'Uihs Book Committee; Vindex Reporter; Kappa tiu ina. ANDREW GUY NONNENMACHER. GUY” Guy is one of the dressiest young gentlemen that we have. Because of this fact he was given a seat in the front row in chapel that others might have a look at him. His chief activity in school consists of going to U7 each Friday morn- ing to call the Commercial studes in to rhetoricals. Guy is a good basket ball player and is very grace- ful when tripping t lie light fan- tastic. lie wiars his hair in a College Brand manner and conse- quently is very popular with the girls. ills greatest faults are his aversion towards work and his pro- pensity for large smiles. One of his greatest accomplish- ments is his ability to look wise when the teacher catches his eye so that she usually calls on the other fellow, who doesn't look wise.
