Behold! Margaret Cavanaugh graces this page with her happy countenance. Such girls as Margaret need no write-up” to proclaim their character, because all who are acquainted with them know their loyal and loving nature. Mar- garet has really a very independent nature. She is willing to help along every cause regardless of what others may do, and she has no desire to be praised for her actions. Tell me—what is the main prop of a class and of a school? Why unselfish individuals like Margaret Cavanaugh who give their unstinted support to everything the class undertakes. ’Rah for you, Margaret Cavanaugh! “ Never idle a moment but thrifty and thoughtful of others.”—Longfellow. MARION CLARENBACH “Q” T9; German T8; A. A. T9. Pudge” Clarenbach has found her place in the hearts of all. She is one of those girls whose particular hobby is to be “on the go;” a person who just loves to be busy. Keep “Pudge” quiet? Huh! You’ve another guess coming. This manner of hers has done much to gain friends for her. It is by such girls as Pudge” that all our dull moments are brightened. How weary would the school day lie without people like her to liven things up a little and to furnish a little enjoyment for us, now and then. Let’s give “Pudge” Clarenbach three cheers. “Some that smile have in their hearts, I fear, millions of mischiefs.”—Shakespeare. GEORGIAN A CLARK “Q” T8, T9; R. T. C. T8, T9. Should Georgiana accomplish nothing more in the world, we feel that she has done her share. For four hard years, she has created a pleasant atmosphere at school through the medium of her indelible smile. Georgiana believes that there is all too little happiness in the world, and in- tends to do her share in increasing the supply. But she will do more, for she is a plucky girl and blessed with this admirable quality and backed by scores of friends, she will reflect credit on the school which she loved and by which she was loved so heartily. The sweetest garland to the sweetest maid.”— T ickell. 27

 PURPLE ND WHITE MIRIAM BROUDY “Q” ’19; R. T. C. ’19; A. A. ’19. Miriam Broudy conies next on the Senior Roll. She’s such a bright, pretty girl that '19 can’t help but like her. She's always on the go, but despite her constant hurry, she always has time to give a cheerful word to everybody. She is fond of athletics, featuring on some of '19’s most famous teams. And besides, she is a splendid student. It isn’t very often that one finds such a good all-round girl. “ Her heart is as far from fraud, as Heaven is from Earth. —Shakespeare. I KRNA HRUNN “Q” '18, '19; German ’17, ’18; Classical '19; A. A. ’17, ’18, '19. Erna Brunn is a regular, good-all-round-girl and we know of no higher compliment to pay any- one. She is a “shark,” a real “shark,’’ one of those scarce individuals who just seem naturally to know everything without even opening a book. She is everything an ideal girl should be—neat, thorough in her work, never grouchy, always happy, modest, quiet when with quiet people, lively at times, sympathetic in everything. We like her exceedingly. N. B. She also belongs to that select circle of Romans known as the Classical Club. This is a silent recommenda- tion for anyone. To he gentle is the test of a lady.”—Feltham. EVADINE CADY Q” T9; R. T. C. T9; A. A. T6. Evadine Cady is one of the jolliest members of a jolly class. She’s a most cheerful individual— always has a smile for everyone. In fact, I’ve never seen her sad. Perhaps that is her chief characteristic. Anyway that is the reason we all like her so well! And Evadine possesses not only a bright smile but a bright mind as well. Those of us who have been lucky enough to be in her classes realize what a “shark” she is. Here’s to you, Evadine, foryou r future welfare! “Good sense and good nature are never separated, though the ignorant world has thought otherwise. —Dryden. 26

PURPLE AND WHITE HELEN CLARK “Q” ’18, ’19; R. T. C. ’17, ’19; A. A. ’19. “Here lies Helen Clark, giver of first aid to the injured,” should be the epitaph on “Clarkey’s” grave stone when she dies, because she was the one to grab the reins of Q” Club when “Al” Begley was forced to throw them down, and “Clarkey” has led the year to a successful close. “Clarkey” is really “Q Club’s treasurer, but she shouldered the added responsibility with characteristic good-nature. When it comes to acting, Helen is right there. .She looks too funny for words with her hair screwed up tight and always makes a tremendous hit. “Clarkey” certainly is mighty jolly. “One can not know everything.”—Horace. MAY CLARK Q” ’19; A. A. ’19. Our eyes travel down the line until they rest upon May Clark—and here they stop. Why shouldn’t they with such a pleasing object for their gaze? May may lie small in person, but its just another case of Good things come in—” oh, well, you know that quotation too well for me to repeat it. May doesn’t say much or do much, but all the same, all '19 knows her and loves her. She’s been a faithful member of “Q” Club and the Atheletic Association, and has taken an active part in most of our school affairs. In a word, May Clark is just the kind of a girl ’19 likes. “ Her very frowns are fairer far Than those of other maidens are. —Coleridge. RUTH CLARK “Q” T9; French T7. Did you ask, “Who is that neat little individ- ual?” Why surely you know Ruth Clark. “Cute”—did you say? Well we should say so! You’re not the only one who thinks that. Oh, no! There are scores and scores, of all ages and classes because, as you know, Ruth is the “only original in captivity.” Everyone idolizes little Ruth. Perhaps the secret of her popularity is her desire to be pleasant to all. Just to see little Ruth is enough to make one happy. Try to be pleasant” is the lesson which we haved learned from Ruth Clark. “ Kindness is the principle of tact.”—Anon 28
