Under his expert managing our Sage has been quite a success this year. Ed. is very popular at G. H. S. even though he has been elected the most conceited boy in the class. He also has the honor of being the “best dancer” among the boys. Nellie Jefferson, McN. “Calm and unruffled as a summer sea Age, 16; height, 5 ft. 6 in.; weight, 115 tbs.

Altogether we are very glad to have this girl with us.

How would the Senior play have gotten along without Edith’s sweet voice and charm¬ ing personality? She is a won¬ derfully blessed young lady, for besides her other accomplish¬ ments she was elected the pret¬ tiest girl of the class. Blanche Martin, McN. Her eye is kin’ and faire to see!

Junior Red Cross. Humor Editor oif Sage. Make way for the heart smasher! We have not fully decided whether the title is due to her curly hair or her laughing eyes; probably the bo ' yis might tell us. Anyway that is what they elected her and she is cer¬ tainly a mighty nice girl.

Some folks say she is quiet, but oh! my how she can roll those eyes and use that giggle she possesses. Even if she is not fond of the masculines (and we have never said she was not) they are fond of her, for she is a nice little black curly haired, brown-eyed girl, full of the joy of living.

Lucy is truly our beauty, with Mack tresses and dark eyes and the most amazing way of using them. She loves to tell stories for Mr. Boseman; she says for a grade, but we kno ' w better. She is rather emotional and a fine, young lady.
