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

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.

MARGARET There is none like her, none. MARCO VINCENZO MQNTAGANO. Song forbids victorious deeds to die. Marco, or Count Gut, is an important member of the Boys' Debating Society. He will offer any information desired on the subjects of 'fstatisticsn or Austria Marco must have had a dreadful fright in his infancy for his hair is still standing on end. He makes up for any deficiencies in the brilliant third period English class by his ever-ready knowledge of various subjects and his original opinions. The morning hymns in Room 1 have been a source of joy to many of our girls because of Marco's splendid singing. CATHERINE MQGXNYNN. ' ' Here is a very quiet little lassie who may be .known as Anna's shadow. Her taste for classical learning did not appear until 1 her third year, when she decid-ed to acquire a little knowledge ' of Latin. The astonishing news came to us one morning that Margaret had participated in a wedding the night before, but we soon learned that she was only a bridesmaid. She has chosen to pursue her course of learning and we wish her suc- CCSS. ETHEL BARNEY MANCIB.

She is a tall young lady with stately dignity. The fourth year Latin class has had the full benefit of her bright translations of 0vid's interesting Metamorphoses. She and Marie are bosom friends, and may be often seen promenad- ing around Room 1, arm in arm. We certainly could not get along without Ethel, and are very glad she consented to grace our class with her presence. 24
