She is much interested in Sunday School work and teaches a class mmercial department. She thinks her work every Sunday. , L. A. PARKE A W Professor Parke is a good-natured fellow who always has a smile. and thoroughly enjoys a joke. He is a fine teacher with an abundance of pa- tience. Yes, a lawyer and a graduate of the University of Kansasq Knows technical terms and their meanings? Why, he wore paths in his dictionary hunting difficult words and their meanings. Think he -is keeping the book as :Ln heirloom. Among other things he teaches commercial law. His greatest delight is to start an argument in his law class. He likesto play judge, sit back in his chair, clasp his hands back ofihis head and neversmile while his law class argues long and earnestly over some point'of disagreement. Does he give a decision? No, just smiles and says calmly, I'll give you a case on that point, and proceeds to start another argument A charter member of t e . h faculty gym ,,class. His motto is Don't worry, and you will live longer. i JANE KELLOGG ATWOOD Miss Atwood teaches geography with stereopticon views. She taught in the Model School but was promoted to the Secondary School. Her classes are conducted with a snap about them that keeps her students awake and thrill- ing with interest. Her pedagogy is give the student all you can, but no m'0re. Her practice is to grade close. When test day comes she encourag- ingly remarks write all you know and then some more. D. A. ELLSWORTH Geography department! Mr. Ellsworth is the High onei' here-six feet and two inches.

D. SOPHIA DONICA Miss Donica is ever ready with a quotation to suit the occasion. Oh yes, she thinks the necessary accomplishmentis to be able to read and read Well. Not only understandingly, but to be able to express your thought in Ciceronian style. Those thoughts must be quite weighty as she recommends a thorough knowledge of physiology and the constant use of the mirr-or. Memorize? Whew! Memorizing things to be useful in after life is her, favorite text, but correct pronunciation of Words is her hobby. A good teacher, but O, those Donica tests! . ANNABEL NEWTON Did you say English 1? Yes, that's right. She makes all Fresh'ies come to her room once each week and write letters to President Roosevelt, or tell stories and spell words. Her hobby is be at classes on time. The specialty on which she holds a first mortgage, and one which no one has dared to usurp, is acting as advance press agent for the Y. W. C. A's May Morning breakfast. A good one, too. Her speech is prime, for it's in rhyme, given in time, to ind a dime, so you can dine, and feel just fine. Smiles! Smiles! Plenty of smiles, but who ever heard her laugh? ROWLAND H. RITCHIE Ayez, this is the head of the Speech Arts Department-Professor Ritchie. He has arenic complexioned hair, his cephalic index indicates dolicacephaly to high degree, not altogether honorary, and he has a superabundance of compli- cated 'flong-jointedj' extraordinary, many-lettered Words. Coaches the de- bate teams and teaches Vocabulary. Maybe that accounts for some things. His remarks are always to the point. I-Ie hits the nail on the head. CI-Ie is a preacher,Aof the Baptist Church, who advises, boil them in oil.- Yea, Verily. He meant something but didn't dare say it-possibly those Fs which he gave at the end of the term. C ANNA SNYDER Miss Snyder is one of the kindest and most sympathetic of teachers. ' She is conscientious about her work and more than fair with her pupils. A hard worker,-at least her students think so. She is fond.of Shakespeare and en- joys his plays in more ways than one. Chaperoning line parties to Macbeth is one of her specialties. Oftentimes she gravely advises that some of you folks will have to work pretty hard, or I've done my part, you do yours. A GEORGIA RENEAU . That Ph. M., is a suggestion of equipment but fails to indicate her ability as a teacher. Small in stature but large in power to master situations at the opportune time. Miss Reneau, we are told, broke sod for the Kellogg Library. It was an honor and the recipient of it has proved the Wisdom-of the se- lection. Evil MCNALLY This precise lady isiMiss McNally. In her presence 'tis a wise idea to use correct English. Yes, better be exact and to the point. Peeped into her room one day and saw rubber bands and papers, galore. Didn't see her. She can't start a 'class or assign a lesson if those notes are lost. rExact? If her little red clock should cease to run, her classes would never be dismissed. There's one thing, though, you can't bluff in her class. You have to work. She has a peculiar Way that causes students to lose. sleep over those comD0Siti0HS- CGI'- tainly, they have to be handed in on time. 21
