18 T IIE C R E S C E N T IRENE MOTT “Mugs.” “Words pass away but dreds remains.” Irene is a girl with a very sweet disposition. Her chief care in life is managing Mary. But she is very capable of doing it for a'that. HERMAN BOONE “Boonie.” “Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears.” This young man is very fond of school in the E. H. S. We predict that he will either be one of Elwood’s leading chemists or director of a minstrel show. NANCY COX “Nancy Jane.” “Auntie, I must have a husband or I shall set fire to the house.” We owe much of the success of our class to you our secretary and treasurer. Just as to your future life we are uncertain. As a musician you’re good, as a student great, as to your fondness for boys—you’re wise—you have none. Your part in “Green Stockings” as “Madge” belies your true character. LLOYD JONES “Jonzy.” “When you do not know whai to do,wait.” This Star City boy is now quite famous with us. As an athlete he is all there good in his studies and every ready for a date. That he will some time find some one who will have him is the sincere wish of his classmate . MARJORIE JONES “Marge.” “Who weds before he is wise, shall not thrive before he dies.” Marjorie came to us in her junior year from Star City. We have reason to believe that her future is all planned for she always speaks of “Jim” and silverware in the same breath, but we hope she doesn’t treat Jim as bad as she (Aunt Ida) treats William Farady in “Green Stockings.” We hope that life will deal kindly with her for she is liked by all.

T HE CRESCENT 17 FRED WILLIAMS ‘“Fritz.” ‘“A dear little thing.” Size makes no difference in knowledge as in the ease of this small senior. But his chief difficulty is trying to figure out why Miss Cox gives him so many 0’s. OPAL HAISELUP “Dolly.” “Please go way and let me sleep.” Our pretty Opal has not been with us very much this year but she has a host of friends. Without her what would Evan’s ding store be? JOHN GARRIGUS “ ohann. ’ “‘Ability is a poor man’s wealth.” John has many admirers in E. H. S. lie is especially noted for his cute ways and good looking neckties. But he is a little bashful on account of his tortoise shell “specks.” KATHERINE LEWIS. “ ‘ Jim. ” “ Remember a smile is always worth while.” Kate, loved by all, we wish you the happiest things in life. You have charmed us all by your jolly good nature and optimism. LILLIAN JONES “Lilly.” “Ease with dignity.” Lillian is a very quiet and bashful girl, widely known and admired. She is a good student and always on time, gifted as a musician and interested in social life. %

T II E CRESCENT MORRIS DEIIORITY “Toots.” “Comb down 'his hair; look, look; it stands upright.” O Tootsie, beware of girls who steal silk handkerchiefs. Morris is another one of those bench warmers, lmt O. such a bashful boy. He’s a dandy pupil and never gives the teachers any trouble. CLAUDINE RICHESON “Richy.” “A little stone may upset a large cart.” Claudine is one of our most studious girls but she always finds time to enjoy life. Her highest ambition as near as we can find out is “shuving” suds across the counter in shiny glasses. HOWARD CROUSE “Crousy.” “Never do today what you can put off till tomorrow.” Our efficient editor-in-chief is a very popular lad and he beams upon all the girls as the sun does upon the earth in the spring time. President of “The Ecclesia” and our acrobatic yell leader. He also makes a good “Colonel Smith” in “Green Stockings.” MARY HARROW “Honey Bunch.” “Manners form the great charm of women. Our pretty Mary is so quiet and studious, but one look into those innocent brown eyes warns all her classmates to beware. She is going through “High” in record time but this doesn’t seem to interfere with her having plenty of time to take care of “Kale.” No he’s not a cabbage. RAY GRAY “Jim.” “The size of the hat doesn’t always indicate the size of the brain.” Our diplomatic Ray’s quiet ways and forceful manner won our admiration in our Junior year and has held it ever since. And by the way what do you think of Ray as “William Far-ady” in “GreenStoekings?” Ray is thinking of leaving Elwood soon and going to Pennsylvania or Montana. Maybe?
