INEZ ESTELLE JORDAN. A little nonsense now and then ' Is relished by the wisest men. This is the little girl with a bubbling laugh and always ready for fun. Though seemingly happy and care-free, Inez is very desirous of good lessons and high marks. She is one of our most popular young ladies and may often be seen with one of the most recent additions to our class, the wearer of the red necktie. Inez is a member of the Brown Owl Board, and peace of its meetings has often been disturbed by the gales she is wont to create. In the beginning of her Senior year, she blossomed out as a basket-ball player, and has been a very enthusiastic supporter of the game. It would be a sorrowful day for the class if Inez were to leave us for then we would be minus Inez. - MARIE SARAH LEACI-I. Music hath charms to soothe the savage beast, To soften -rocks, or bend the knotted oak. , The Muses have endowed this young lady with the gift of song, as may be seen by the fact that she is our Class Hymnist. -iiaiie is exceedingly fond of dancing, and is a frequent visitor at Rhodes' Her points of the compass have been dehned as five: -north point, south point, east point, west point, Riverpoint. Marie is a member of the Brown Owl Board and her dignity is often shocked at its meetings by the actions of the children Marie, after much deliberation, decided to cast her lot with our class. Wfe appreciate her decision, for otherwise we would lack a class hymn. HERBERT ENN ART LQRD. Show me a happier man than youf' - Butsy was greatly honored at the beginning of the fourth year by being chosen as vice-president of the class, but he has not had a chance to distinguish himself in that capacity. Not- withstanding the dignity of his position, he has formed a curi- ous liking for a little plant known as Ivy An education at Wfebster Avenue Grammar School was not sufficient for this scholarly UQ youth, so he has diligently pursued his quest for knowledge with us at English Herbert has done excellent work as a member of the hockey and baseball teams.

He knit his brows, And held his breath. VVay back in l907,Ja little tot, wearing short trousers and Vandyke collar, carrying a large lunch basket like every other freshman, immigrated to English, where he deposited his bur- dens and stayed to keep us company. He is fortunately en- dowed with red cheeks, the color of 'which is procured without the aid of rouge. Although Arnot is a quiet little chap, he is well liked by his classmates. His complexion has caused some comment in the B. O. Board meetings, and he would be sur- prised if he knew with whom he had been compared. He is still very shy and bashful, but he has greatly improved in this respect since he entered English VVe do not yet know his intentions for the future. ISABELL MARY HUGHES. She is a maid of artless grace Gentle of form and fair of face. Isabell is one of lNebster's products and is considered among the jolly girls in our class. She is one of our pretty red- cheeked girls and is loved by all her classmates. Isabell was at one time very fond of attending track meets, especially those in which Classical was represented. Her winsome smile attracts everybody, and we do not wonder that she has hosts of friends. Isabell likes to spend the summer days at Rumford, and we wonder if that is the source of her beauty, for we, too, would like to try it. i , - HELEN RAINSEY I-I UTCHEON. Sweetly and stately, and with all grace Of womanhoodf' Helen is one of our quiet, studious young ladies, and, al- though she is good in all her lessons, her chief accomplishment is phonography. She is very fond of astronomy, enjoying the recitations on this subject in the fifth period with many of her classmates. Her good recitations and quiet voice are pleasing features of the third period English class. 21

ALICE ELIZA LUTHER. Be to her virtues very kind, Be to her faults a little blind. After leaving Vineyard, Alice decided to become one of EnglishJs,' many daughters. She came to us a very demure young lady but she has since acquired an educated laugh which has been heard very often during her fourth year. Alice chose the Normal Course and has diligently pursued her way through mazes of civics and arithmetic. She is known for her good-natured, happy disposition which will surely aid her in ' making her future life a success. JESSIE VERONICA MCDOUGALL. So light of foot, so light of spiritfi Jessie is one of our pretty girls and is known by her lovely dimples. She is one of the best shorthand scholars which this class has produced. She may be counted among our jolliest girls, and is a friend of everyone. Her happy Ways have been a source of delight to all who have happened to sit near her. Her disposition is such that she can remain calm in a tumult and We have never seen her spirits the least ruffled. Wfe Wish her the greatest success in whatever she undertakes after leaving English ACHILLE MANGI.-XNTE. A mighty man is he. Achille has been very efficient in getting ads. for this Brown Owl, even surpassing the Business Manager in this respect. ltle is Miss Peirce's reference book for the pronunciation of ltalian names. Achille spends his leisure hours to great ad- vantage as an important personage in certain tonsorial parlors. l-le is one of the few in the third period English class who is acquainted with Dante. 23
