Memjber Thrifty Thrift Soci¬ ety. Member Jiunior Red Cross, Room 14. Blanche is a pleasant, lova¬ ble, quiet girl with a sweet dis¬ position, a beautiful complex¬ ion, and is a good student.

If the angel Gabriel should lend Olive his harp (or was it a trumpet?) she could beat him playing ilt. She is musical to her slender finger tips and was easily selected the most musical of the class of 1918. She is not only that but can say the “Cutest” things. Every one likes Olive.

THE SAGE 23 Virginia May Jefferson, Io. “A smooth and steadfast mind” Age, IS; height, 5 ft. 4 in.; weight, 123 Tbs. Vice-President of Thrifty Thrift Society. Member of the Junior Red Cross Society, Room 14. We are all sure Virginia burns the midnight oil. A’s are her specialty. She would make some one a fine little wife and at present it is rumored that a certain football captain’s heart is not for rent. Bacy Olan Barnes, Phi. But know their rights and knowing dare maintain” Age, 20; height, 5 ft. 4 in.; weight, 149 Tbs. Memlber football team, ’14, ’15, ’16, ’17; captain football team, ' 18; vice-ipresident class ’14; 2nd censor Phi. ’16; 1st censor, Phi. ’17; president Phi. Society, ' IS; president Boys’ Athletic Association, ’17-’1S; president class ’17; class ora¬ tor, ’18; Sec. Thrifty Thrift Society. Right or wrong Olan says what he thinks and we all ad¬ mire him for ilt. It will always be one of the seven great won¬ ders of the world that he con¬ sented to have his piet-ure tak¬ en, even for our Sage. He is a football player from Way back. If our Senior play had some¬ thing to do with geometry, we are sure Olan would take the leading part. Biarnes does pret¬ ty well and we’re proud of him.

A Valuable addition was made to our class when Dor¬ othy entered last year., Tho she hasn’t been here long she has won many friends by her bright, happy disposition.

Clyde is not only our cham pion bell ringer, but he shines on geometry. A porcupine en¬ vies Cly ' de’S bristles after he has had a hair cut, and Miss Sutton can tell you how very much she covets his giggle, which is heard most unexpect¬ edly. “Brooksey” is an all¬ round fine iboy.
