ESTHER CROWSON “Shorty” Esther has taken part in almost every activity of the school. She has shown her talent for the stage in the Junior Play; has shown her ability as a speaker in the debates from year to year; and, lastly, she will prove what an excellent student she is when she carries off the scholar ship at commencement, for she has a higher average than any other girls in the class. “Shorty” has always kept her self-posession. Even when the report spread abroad that she was married, she was equal to the occasion. Red Cross Essay Prize, ' 19; Alternate in Triangular Debate. ' 20; Secretary of Class. ' 20; Staff of Tarpitur.

VIRGINIA GRAHAM “Curly Head” Who is that curly-headed girl who goes around with her finger in her mouth looking so bashful? Anyone might have asked when Virginia first came among us. But now we have found that she isn’t bashful at all; in fact, she is one of our best talkers whether in ordinary conversation or before an audience. Although her classmates say she is a regular translating machine, she insists that tier chief ambition is to get out of work and her favorite pastime is drinking chocolate milk shakes. We are tempted to close with her favorite expression: “Well for goodness sake!” Wit Editor; Tarpitur. ' 22; President McNeill III. ' 22 . Nineteen

She had not been with us long before she proved herself a jolly companion and a good sport.

You hear So much for that,” and know with¬ out looking to see that Ezra is near; for this is his general way of ending a conversation. In school you usually find him at his hooks in pur¬ suit of his ambition to become “a man of learn¬ ing.” After school hours he is often seen en¬ joying his favorite pastime, riding. Assistant Business Manager-Junior Play, ’22. LOUISE ROBINSON “You dear ole buzzard,” comes from “Bobbie” as she is expressing her opinion to “K. B.” Louise is one of our most promising Seniors. It ap¬ pears that her chief ambition, which is to keep out of mischief, flies to the winds in her leisure because at this time she is generally rubbing Miss Nellie the wrong way and making her angry. Louise has a special way of expressing any thing so that you are completely won over. She is capable of doing most anything from writing character sketches for “Tarpitur” to translating ‘Virgil. ' Where Louise gives her help, you may consider the work well done. Class Debate. ' 21; Class Basket Ball Team, ’2l-’22; Junior Play, ' 21; Critic Literary Society, ’21; Staff of Tarpitur, ’22.
