 52HH52 CANADESAGAN INEZ DOUGLASS “Laugh and the world laughs with you” This must be Inez’ motto, for she laughs all day long. She is as funny as Aristophanes and extends her funny remarks even to Vergil, where she studi- ously “soaked the limbs of Aneas’ men in brine.” Her favorite expression is “Gosh!” but she denies all knowledge of the word. She claims that her favorite pastime is housework, and so we imagine that her cheery nature brightens her home, even as it brightens the faces of her friends. HARRY L. KAHLER “Faithful to duty where’er it calls” Harry seems to be one of the few people in this world that enjoy working. He never told us he did but he never seems to grumble about it very much and that is more than can be said of us. Harry is a good dancer, but his favorite occupation seems to be the enjoyable one of courting a certain Big Flats girl who is in our midst. We can’t tell you, abso- lutely, who she is, for that might not be fair to either, but if you are in the least curious, just look around, and you cannot fail to find out who is who. Forum IRENE T. FIELD “Her faith is built on argument alone” Irene has lots of school spirit and when it comes to basket ball she is right in her element. Some people think she is a grind, but, although we admit that she studies harder than most of us, we still say she is always ready for a good time. She is a fine musician as well as a good cook, and intends to take Domestic Science at Elmira College. It is also known that she has quite a liking for a certain Post Graduate. Girls Basketball “A man after his own heart” “Jud” must not be thought of, just because he holds his head above our reach, as a haughty fellow, for if you know him, the least you can say is that he is a very agreeable fellow. He lent his talent to the Senior Play, so we know why it was a success. (Oh yes!) At any rate, since we couldn’t find any hint of scandal in his life, we had to say something. We wish you the best of luck, Jud. Senior Play, Forum, Student Council JUDSON HOOVER

—«uilll 553HZ55 •CANADESAGAN • KATHERINE BIGGS Neither care nor worry ne’er wrinkles her fair brow.” Katherine’s one ambition in life seems to be to have a good time, and as far as we can see, she appears to be realizing her ambition. She is very fond of talking in class and never worries over her lessons. However, Katherine digs in” and works just before exams, and comes out with flying colors. She has a very sweet and likable dispo- sition, which has done much to win her many friends. If you want to be sure whether or not a person is Katherine, just look at her hat—it will be tipped at an angle of about 90 degrees over the right eye. GORDON H. CURTIS How deep still waters run! Agey” is a very accomplished young chap, with very high ideals. He intends to enter Prince- ton in a year or two and will undoubtedly come out with colors flying. He is quite a reformer, lecturing quite broadly on the subject of Beauty Without Rouge ”, as applying to the opposite sex, of course. Of a certainty, he’ll deny this, but don’t listen to him. We know. Senior Banquet Committee. M. LORETTA HUGHES Her eyes flash Medea’s eloquence.” Her eyes are large and brown, Her hair is long and curly; She has a spirit you cannot down And a way that’s ever cheery. Her figure is slender and graceful, Her dancing is fine to see; And her face if ever joyful While gazing at a He.” EMERSON L. DIVEN He is a man of boundless knowledge.” It is beyond us entirely how Liddy ” can stoop to such common people as we students in E. F. A. He has traveled almost everywhere in the U. S. and on his list of acquaintances are numbered sev- eral foreign noblemen, and he even corresponds with a famous Russian statesman! He belongs to the elite of our country and we certainly ought to feel honored to have him in our midst. And if you want to know anything about Elmira College, (although it is a female institution) just ask Liddy and he can tell you. Editor of Vindex Canadesagan Board

 55HH52 •CANADESAGAN • BESSIE GRAVES Bess is liked by lots of girls, She’s liked by lots of boys; She simply stars in Basket Ball And raises stacks of noise.” How anyone can be vice-president of a class, play basket ball, entertain callers, and get the re- ports Bessie does, is way beyond our conception. Everyone likes her and she can always find time to help you out in lessons. Outside of school—well, very reluctantly, we decide not to tell on you, Bessie. Girl’s Basketball Vice-President Class WILLIAM MANGAN A quiet lad, yet mighty in his wrath.” Bill ” is a popular young fellow who plays football, and he has won many admirers among the fair sex; still, he doesn’t reciprocate the admi- ration. He is an ardent anti-feminist and will take any amount of trouble to avoid meeting one of those fussy, embarrassing creatures. He is active in all school activities, and is always observed be- cause of his conspicuous calmness. Bill is husky, whole-souled, and generous, and his host of friends will never forget him. Football LEON NELSON An ordinary person, yet Destiny holds for him we know not what.” We call him Deak” for short, not that this name fits him, for we know better, but someone gave it to him, and he still has it. When he isn’t playing football, basketball, or working at track, he is out with the girls. Look out girls, he is a regular heart-breaker! Strange to say he is learn- ing to be a mail-man. Keep it up, Deak, success awaits you. Basketball Football Track Team Class Play LILLIAN McCABE She plays basketball! ” And plays it well, too. Lillian captained the girl’s basketball team through the season just past. And an unusually successful one it was, too,and by her own efforts many apparent defeats were turned into victory. One would not believe it, but Lillian is studious. She is noted for her laugh, which can- not be equaled. Her motto is, If you cannot be good, be careful,” and we believe she lives up to it.
