She has been indispensable as a guard on our basketball team and is one of those who earned her gym credit by skating. We wonder! “There’s a world of wisdom in her looks.” Classical Club; Girls’ Athletic Editor of “E”; “Mice and President, Sophomore Class; Hockey, ’20, ’21, ’22; Basketball, T9, EDNA JONES Martin’s Ferry, Ohio, 1911 Demureness is one of her virtues. Edna never says much but per¬ haps we never give her a chance. We all like her anyway and wish her luck in her future work. She is one of Miss Lull’s stand-bys and she is rushed to draw pictures in “Our Girl Graduate” books. “Those who love beauty Are gentle and honest in their temper.” Classical Club; Spanish Club; Hockey, ’22; Art Editor of “E”- Audi¬ torium League, ’21; Commercial Law Club; J.

DALE GOOD “Ike” South Bend, 1908 Dale came to Emerson from South Bend, but it was so long ago that he can’t remember much about it so we forgive him. He spends a good deal of time getting snaps for the Annual, around the school, in Mr. White’s room, and other places. His green Ford is quite convenient for his friends. The girls are all friends of Dale. Chemistry Club; Spanish Club; B. S. E. C.; Football, 2nd team 22. Track; Chairman Athletic Association; Senior Representative, ’21, Board of Control; Snap Editor of “E.” MATTHIAS FABIANSKI, “Mutt” Mutt proved to be a dark horse in the fall election, having been elect¬ ed yell leader over the heads of the two regular candidates. He has turn- ed out to be an excellent yell leader and it was not his fault that we lost the tournament. How about the “sinoopsis,” Mutt? “I don’t say much, I guess I must be shy.” B J E C • B. S. E.

Cuba -. 19 8 Johnnie reminds us of that old saying about the best things coming in small packages. He is sure there with the goods, whether it means study- ing, boosting, or such a trivial thing as putting out the Annual on time. Although he came here from the wilds of Cuba, he is fairly civilized now and speaks English with very little trouble. “Diamonds are small, so why should I worry.” B. J. E. C.; Spanish Club, President; Classical Club; Band; Audi¬ torium League; Editor of “E”; “Mice and Men”; R. 0. T. C. WILLIAM MARTIN, “Bill” Valparaiso, 1914 Bill never lets his pleasures interfere with his work. It is this excel¬ lent trait that has made him an efficient business manager. He is one of the orchestra’s accomplished violinists. We all look “up’ to Bill. “What is worth doing at all, is worth doing well.’ B S. E.

FRANK STIMSON, “Niger” Memphis, Tenn., 1916 Frank’s ready smile and good nature have brought him many irienas and a captaincy? As Junior Boys’ treasurer last year he succeeded in wringing from the boys, who seemed to be perpetually “broke enough money to help finance our successful parties. “Bashfulness is the ornament of youth. .

RUSSELL ST. JOHN, “Rus” „ Chicago, 1918 Russell is right there when it comes to boosting the school activ¬ ities. His timely signs are a great help to the busy student.
