SKINNER “hank” “Men are but children of a larger growth Won’t Henry look pretty in a naval uni- form ? Yes. he looks that way now. too,— but he looks so young. He needs to put on the paraphernalia of a man to really seem one. It’s a rare gift to be as a man only a grown up child, so don't lose your boyishness. Henry. But have a care about the “wimmen —you mustn't love more than ten at once. That’s about all you can manage now isn’t it? We feel for you, “Hank —a uniform is so attractive ! Be good, or be careful ! Football Team. Class Booh Board. MIEDRED SEITER SLITZ lam part of all that I have met. Yes, “Slitzy your a mighty fine girl. What proof have we? Why look who thinks so—our most honored President. Isn’t that proof enough? “Mil” is the sort of person you always go to when your in trouble. She is so practical and re- sourceful. Now we re in trouble and would like to ask her why she always stays in Room II. third period until she is late to physical geography and then blushes furiously on her way to class. Senior Reception Committee. - CECIE SMITH CECIL” Blessed are those that can forget, for lessons u orry them not. Cecil doesn’t believe in too much worry- ing over trifles. If she forgets where her lessons are or to bring her book home it is not a very serious affair and she goes on smiling and happy. One thing she doesn't forget, however is to help some one that is badly in need of an explanation or a book. She will always remember when to help some one else so we vote Cecil a capital friend. VAEARA SMITH “ The sun shone through her golden hair. When you first know Valara you think she is quiet and precise, but oh, how mis- taken you are. She is an untirable giggler and has been known to try and pull people’s hair down right in school We hear that she is a Vergil shark outside of class, but becomes tongue tied the moment she enters the door of room one, personally we can’t imagine her tongue- tied. We just have to mention the fact that she has a Senior steady, for so many Senior girls waste their affections on Juniors and the like.

SHEIVK chuck'' “At my birth the base and huge founda- tion of the earth shaked like a coward. Charles is our man of the hour'' (just what o'clock A. M. is it? usually 3). He has made foundations shake at his will. indeed ; for when he raved as Weston at Rorick’s, even the seats quaked. He has shown his mightiness in his managment of the Senior play. We hail in him a future actor-manager that will surpass any such metropolitan combination up- to-date. Manager Senior Class Play, Class Play. MARY ROBERTS “ Wilt thou have music ? Hark ! Apollo plays. When the nimble fingers of this lass fly over the key-board our feet just simply won t keep still and we re off on a rollick- ing dance. Oh. Mary's some player al- right. We predict a very glorious future for this child as one of the renowned corps chosen for the responsible position so popular during the hilarious hour of twelve. But you mustn't think that this is Mary's only accomplishment. Giggles are Mary's forte. She always has a good stock on hand. In fact we never see Mary without a giggle, and we never hear a giggle without seeing Mary. But she's iu her element when there is some nice athletic chap by her side on whom she can rain her giggles. And from all ap- pearances she seems to have them, too. Arbor Day Committee. PAUIy I.. SINGER Thegentleman is learned and a most rare speaker. Maybe you think Paul can’t speak some. The only trouble is he can't stop after he gets started. Eouis has many accomplish- ments among which are tenor singing and motorcycling (with a girl on behind.) What would E. F. A. do without him on the athletic field ? He is surely a star when it comes to sprinting. Then, too. more than one of us is grateful for his brotherly advice and council and voluntary aid in many of our private affairs. Chairman Valentine Party Committee. Glee Club, Track Team. KATHERINE SHAFFER I say not much but think the more. As calm and as smiling as a day in June is our Katherine. And what is so rare as a day in June ? ” We would think that the world was indeed coming to a hasty end if this little lady were to grow excited and loose that composed manner of hers. Surely the name of Senior fits her to a T, a thing which we can’t say of everybody. However, those who know her best tell us that there is one subject that Katherine really warms up to. and that is the topic of actors and actresses. Just get her to talking and see. Oh my. we almost for- got to say that Katherine is a fine musician. But she's so modest it is very hard to get her to play. (27)

 THEODORE TOWNSEND ted” spider” ' Large Men Have Large Hearts” Look who’s here ! The Senior's pride in all Track Meets. The untrained youngster” who carries off first place in all the races. Then, too, Ted” is quiet a ladies’man, for his black eyes make all the girls feel thrills of delight if he happens to bestow one smile on them. Track Team. Senior Reception Com- mittee LORETTA SENNOTT “loretta” Knock, knock, knock ! ” Here’s our professional knocker. She has everybody else beaten in that line. That's the reason we are going to knock Loretta a little. Don't you think she has by far too many crushes? Or that she talks too muck ? Anyone wishing refer- ence of her ability to start things just apply to any member of Mr. Donaldson's algebra class. ED1THA UNDERHILL “ed undy” ‘ ‘ With too much quickness ever to be taught With too much thinking to have common thought.” It’s not alone her brain that is quick, the Minstrels shewed us, that her feet are equally lively. Really Editha it was a pleasant surprise for we'd always thought you were a little too much of a grind to ever enter the ranks of minstrelsy. We rather mistrust you’d like to have us mention the fact that you are such a good sport you never miss a football, baseball or basketball game. Just because of that we’re going to remain silent on the sub- ject. Class Pin Committee. Glee Club. - MARGARET TEN BROECK 5 marc. “ There are eyes half defiant Half meek or compliant Black eyes with a wonderous witch- ing charm. 5 We haven't the space to siy half the nice things we’d like to say about Marg”, for she is one of those people for whom every- one has a good word. She is such a good sport. Always ready for any sort of a good time, but her specialty is the second performance at the Mozart. We’ve heard from a reliable source that she will forsake E any sort of work or play” for this joy.
