A giggle! Immediately every one knows from what source it comes. Vir¬ ginia, though small in stature, is a com¬ bination of mirth and brains. Possessing such rare qualities, everyone expects for her a great future. F. H. S. says: “May you have suc¬ cess and keep on laughing.’’ Henry Davis Genther “When joy and duty clash. Let duty go to smash!” Idi-Y Club, ’22; Athletic Association, ’21, ’22, ’23, ’24- Henry comes very irregularly to school, but when he does honor us with his presence we are very glad to have him. He is not afraid of work, but would rather not be intimately associated with it. If Henry’s income is as large as his heart, Rockefeller will envy him. F. H. S. says: “Come on, help make the old Burg famous.”

Senior Class Charles Edgar Stevens “He ’will relish a joke and rejoice in a pun; A rare combination of oddity, frolic and fun.” Athletic Association, ’21, ’22, ' 23, ' 24; Hi-Y, ’ 22 . Edgar enjoys a joke, and everyone else enjoys it with him. As for mis¬ chief, can’t you note it lurking in his eyes? Under his mischief lies kindness, and his wit is free from injury.

S. says: “Gifts are to every man, and yours is the ability to use them.”
