Gray happens to possess a perfectly good motor- cycle, and can thus easily de- part from any momentarily uninteresting friends, for al- though the machine is a two- seated arrangement, the second seat is usually occupied by his brother. The Gray Brothers are known all over the campus. Some wide-spread reputation. We should judge that the midnight oil in Charles S. l'lardy's lamp was frequently burned quite low: owing to his excellency in studies. On the other hand, we ask you, how can a gentleman who has time to carry a cane have time for such trivial matters as those which pertain to school? 'Tis a deep and mysterious question which we leave to our intellect- ual classmates to answer. Worry? Cares? Nervous- ness? Too much study? Come right across! Helen Phebe Harkness has the sure cure for any of the above maladies, and it Certainly does hit the spot. And the silver linings of her clouds are not German Silver, either. 'l'hey're the real, gen- uine article, guaranteed to get brighter with wear. Never did any person have a higher standard of right and wrong than has lsabella Hark- ness, nor did anyone ever stand up harder for that standard. Those who have her for a friend count themselves favored for Harley has never been known to go back on a person. She has the best executive ability and the most common sense of anyone we have the honor of knowing, and as a good scout she takes the cake.

GO'1 I'I First, Second and Third Years at Libertyville. Fourth Year-Bluffers' Union. 28 Gordon Francis is an Aus- tin importation. On his first appearance he made quite a splash and has endeavored to keep up the good work. In the fall he went out for football. l love the ladies is his motto. He likes first year Latin so well that he has taken it four times. Jennette Fredericks has been in Ii. A. four years, but it is only during the past year that rumor has it that she has re- ceived a magnificent salary for taking the Illinae notices to Mr. Helm at Chapel time. Her most intimate friends said, however, that she performed this duty free of charge. Knowing jennette's kind na- ture and her hatred for all mean and small motives, we are inclined to believe the latter, especially as everyone in school regards her as of a most worldly character. Newman Furness is one of these quiet persons who is al- ways astonishing you with interesting C?J and instructive UD remarks. He can tell you more about Mexico in ten min- utes than you ever dreamed could happen in ten years. Not only about Mexico, either, but about lots of other things, Zoology included. He is a member of the Furness Clan that made Mr. Weld famous. By his heart or life line we dis- cern that if he did not get the vote for the least reliable, he should have. He has never lil-:ed to be known as the bro- ther of Dwightg he craves for individual distinction. We know absolutely nothing of Harry Edward Gotti's past or present history and we are sorry to confess that the war and militarism have destroyed the records of his future. How- ever, we should like to state that he is quite harmless unless aroused, when he becomes a menace to the peaceful and law-abiding population. It is when in these moods that he makes fearful and amazing on- slaughts upon the German language. Cln perusing this the reader is requested not to show any signs of partiality. By order of the Presidentj

Natur- ally, we should hesitate to swear upon our word of honor that the above-mentioned state of affairs actually existed in the mind of Hartman, nevertheless, we can only judge by outward appearances. Otherwise we know nothing about him, and anyway we had to say this be- cause he has been here such a short time that we do not know very much about him. But he should rejoice at that for it is undoubtedly just as well for him -that we are not better acquainted with him. Mildred Jean Hinners is a good hard worker, and one that always succeeds in what she undertakes. This can be prov- ed by the speedy manner in which she has helped to manage one or two school alfairs during the past year. She always has a good time herself, and is gen- erous enough to want everyone to share her pleasures. Betty has been in the Academy four years and during that time she has received practically all A's. She is the brightest of all the sharks. lf it were not for her the Girls' Edition of the flmdrmian would never have been such a success. Betty is very fond of the sciences, We wonder why she waited till her last year to take Zoo. We can safely say that no sweeter nor more intellectual girl than Elizabeth Holden ever grad- uated from the Academy. Certainly a person who has been in this school four years has earned the right to be talk- ed about a little! Helen M. Hotchkin is one of the bright- est people in the class, and is one of the most interesting to talk to. This is proved by the fact that she is the vice-presi- dent of the lirm of Saunders and Company-a most select organization to which only a few are admitted.
