AMBERG. “A mother's pride, a father's joy. Did you ever slip down beside Roland in his seat and quietly ask him to slide a lesson over so you could copy it? If you never have, don't do it! Your answer will be a dark, deep look of scorn. We agree with you, Roland, that honesty is the best policy. No one has it over this little boy for quietness, in fact we would not know he was in the school if we didn't stumble over him once in a while or if we didn’t hearhis brillant recitations. Many suppositions have been floating around about his future but it is now generally settled that he is to be a minister. ROBERT I . ABBOTT. “bob ' “ IVho'er excels in what we prize Appears a hero in our eyes. “Bob” is always rushed to death because he is so dependable. If there is ever a hard undertaking he is put in charge and the enterprize is always a grand success What better proof is there of his prowess than this Class Book ? It will always be lasting evidence of his skill. Of course, like everyone else he has some faults. We think his greatest one is not passing his smiles around more. But as it is a a Senior Girl on whom he bestows them all, we'll have to forgive him. Captain Track Team. Editor in Chief of Class Book. Glee Club. RUTH D. BACORN. “ruth” ”My'nature is subdued To what it works in.' Yes Ruth, your nature is subdued until the impulse comes to talk or to giggle and then the word subdued hardly fits. If it weren't for the fact that Ruth has her lessons almost every day we would criti- cise her severely for this characteristic, but because of her studiousness and love of fun we will forgive her. We predict for her a great success in what ever be her walk in life. LOUISE AGARD. 4 Waltz me a rou nd aga in, Willie. ’ ’ The first year or two of her Academy course, people got the idea that Louise was a grind simply because she got good marks, but they've gotten over that idea long ago. Now they are trying to puzzle out why she stands so high when she never seems to look at a book. Give us your receipt, Louise! Dancing appears to be her favorite occupation and she does it on every possible occasion. Has she a crush on anyone ? No. not on one, but on ten different chaps. If you don’t see her for ten minutes, when you come back she’ll tell you of some gallant she has seen in the meanwhile that she is des- perately crazy about. May be she’s only seen his picture. That doesn’t make any difference. Cook Academy also seems to have some sort of an attraction for her. Never mind, Louise, you're young yet. annum.....nnnnnnnnnnnnnnni..... CIO)

................................................................................. mu iimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiii LESLIE BROWN “les” “Beauty makcth a -popular man, acting an attractive man, and athletics a busy man. Well! to begin with here’s Les.” He makes an ideal President, can rival Booth in acting, can bluff the faculty quite successfully; is great at athletics and at entertaining the ladies. As a good looking Academy student he is very attractive and as an old gentleman in the Minstrels he was too distinguished looking for words. As for Leslie’s future ; we want to see “President Brown” adorn- ing the White House stationary sometime in the future when the Class of 1912 is far separated by distance but closely bound by love of E.

The Fates surely were good to Ruth. They gave her a winning manner, a studious mind and the prettiist eyes imaginable. Her aforementioned win- ning manuer has won her many friends among both the fellows and girls. Her studious mind has gained her the admira- tion of not only the students but the faculty too. Some triumph that, don’t you think so? And as for those eyes, why what would you expect of great, big beautiful eyes? Vice-President Senior Class. Reception Committee. Honor Student. LAURA BKAGHKN “laura” I've done my duty And I've done no more. That certainly is true of Laura as far as studying is concerned, hut if she has done no more than her duty along the line of talking, we think she must have a pretty- large concepi ion of her duty. The one word which never enters her fluent dis- courses is “boy”, but we have a well founded suspicion that this attitude is only a blind to throw us off the track. i = = E E E = E E = GARANA BEDROSIAN. “f.ARANA ” She came to us for June. Although Garana was a B.C- H. S. girl for the first years of her High School life, she is spending her .Senior year in K. F. A. We feel sorry for Binghamton because when it lost Garana it lost a girl worth while and one that we are very glad to have a member of the class of 1912. By the way don’t mention it in public but Garana thinks that E. F. A. is the school. We agree, don’t you ? MARY HELEN BENEDICT. “mary” A'o unkind word has left her tongue Mary- is just the girl that any one would choose for a friend. She is of such character and personality that friendship with her is an elevating thing and one to be appreciated by those that know her. The only thing we have against Mary is, that she stands too high in her subjects and that she has therefore calmly allowed her name to adorn the honor roll all the year. But we have tried to overlook that fault on account ot her sunny smiles and obliging ways. “Invitation Committee.
