R. L. HOUSTON JONES “Never do anything in excess Houston is one of the quietest and most dignified boys in our class. He does not participate very much in football or basket¬ ball but is a first-class athlete. Every morn¬ ing about half past eight you will hear a Chevrolet drive up and out steps Houston. Never known to be absent from school or to fail on a subject. Good luck, Houston, and may you have great success.

GRAFTON GREENLAW Better late than ne-ver”. Mr. Link has just finished calling the roll when the door is softly opened and in creeps Grafton. But all the same Grafton is the best of sports and with his “Buick” is a great favorite of the ladies.

KATHRINE WAYNE GOULDIN “A lifter—not a leaner—yet a shifter” We have always wondered why Kate is always so hard to find. The secret of this mystery is her popularity. She is never still nut always running around with some one. But you find her most often with a baseball star. But do not understand by this that Kate never studies, for she is the Valedic¬ torian of our class. We suppose the reason must be that she doesn ' t need to. We wish Kate, that you would give us the secret of your success.

HILDAH BRAUER “Mails are wonderful” It ' s no use, old sport, if “He” throws you a glance from her windows of the soul you are sure to go under for the third time.

What fair girl is this coming to Fredericks¬ burg High School? Why it is John Ruff” from the Normal School. John is a splendid student and always succeeds in passing her examinations.
