Jf.ssie C. Haszard Charlottetown, P. E. I. As an example of how a girl may change her ideas, Jessie takes the cake. Her evolution has been from a healthy, blooming, country lass, with no sense of the importance of the masculine element, to a sophisticated young person who just can’t make her eyes behave. There is no one in our class who can surpass her in open-hearted generosity and her beautiful eagerness to oblige everyone. Golda Maf. Hewitt 1 aylorsville, Illinois Golda is a nice girl, but she needs rousing. She only giggles where other girls would say “My hands are cold ” or “Nobody loves me.” Members of the debate class will never forget the long line of stinging epithets she applied to newsjiaper editors.

Elizabeth E. Ellis Gainesville, Georgia Bess IS very studious. She has been known to lock herself in her room and study “The Eorgiveness” for hours! It has been said that Bess looks like Eddie Eoy.

Dorothy C. Hopkins Osco, Illinois “Well, now,” Dorothy Hopkins is as serious- minded a girl as ever propounded ethical posers. We all have more or less pleasant reminders of her written in that neat little script at the dic- tation of Mr. Kidder. She delights the heart of Miss Riddell with her perfect poise and cor- rect carriage. That incredibly smooth coiffure is the despair and envy of ordinary tousled headed seniors. Fred W. Hubbard Newton, Massachusetts Here is a rare hot air artist — a Prince of Bluffers. He defies Shakesperean commentators, gives adult, normal men private lessons, grants royalties, and what is more, he gets away with It! Of all our masculine appendages he is the most sartorially artistic. [For an interpreta- tion of this passage we refer Fred to Webster’s unabridged.] We call attention to the fact that we have not made use of the whiskered tax collector joke which has grown hoary with use. Reverting to our central idea, our advice is, if all else fails, try poker. 29
