It may not be long before he will be writing poetry like his namesake, all for women. ROBERT VV. BUCKLEY 17 years l31'0WI1 . Is that so? Let's see about that. So comes the sound from the rear seat. Bob enjoys anything when it arouses a little argument, or a good, hearty laugh. Bob has a captivating smile, or grin, as all the girls admit. He has taken the iield in football 'and hockey, and managed baseball. His Yankee shrewdness has come to the front in the manage- ment of the Blue and Vlfhite.

BLUE AND WHITE LOIS R. BRADLEY 17 years Mount Holyoke An element of common sense and steady ,ability is necessary, and most desired, in any organization. In the class of '23 the leader in sound judgment is our secretary. She has built for herself an enviable record of H's, and when We are in trouble with our Latin or English syntax We run to her for as- sistance. Too, she is a really truly milkmaid, com- ing from the verdant pastures of our rural districts 3 but she has vividly impressed upon us the fact that a milkmaid is not a dumbell in any way, but a lively, snappy, interested participant in all our adairs.

His quiet nature forms a background on which the more youthful members of the class may frisk. And above all he is oft the ladies. No girl could ever get more than two Words from him. And those two words Were, shall I tell? Most severe he is with them. The sight of a skirt makes' him turn his face away. The thought of a female within miles of him makes his mouth dry and the goose ilesh rise on his arm. Hair pins are daggers to his eyes. A curl? ooooh-shivers of horror. Yet perhaps I have misrepresented him. You ask him. CATHERINE V. BRODERICK 17 years R. I. C. E. 'Tis drill period, the room is still, then from the rear comes a suppressed giggle, another, another, ANOTHER and Catherine's beaming face goes down behind a desk lid. Neighbors commence to weaken, soon they are in hysterics, anon the whole room is one vast laugh. Why? Because Catherine has set us oif. She is our dispenser of troubles. Care and worry are her farthest relatives. And she's a good scout, too, many a struggling would-be geometrician will vouch for that. She is one of our leading merry- makers, and she is blessed to forever and ever greet the world with that irresistible giggle.

BLUE AND WHITE ' IRENE E. BUSCH 17 years ' R. I. G. E. Miss Busch is one of the famous pair. With un- concern she does as she pleases and charges it to sister Sophie. After four years of the closest friendship we are still unable to distinguish quickly which of these misses is which. The best way is to demand in a loud and fluent tongue, Are you the person who sits in the fourth aisle of the large room? If the answer is in the negative, you lose, try again. Irene is chairman of the secret society of I. F. f?J At 2:35 sheienters room 3R, to appear again later with a cheerful countenance. Watch her show up the other people at the R. I. C. E.

Eye, ear, hair, head, feet, left hand, right little finger, but if you catch a glimpse of the rear right molar you will quickly see that it lacks the depth of that of sister's by nearly one sixty-seventh of a millimeter. This is the jolly soul Who every last period tries to break the ancient saying that o11e can't raise a disturbance and live to tell of it. Room BR from 1:45 until 2:30 is in constant unrest if this young lady chooses to make it so. She even sometimes discloses that molar. Basketball CZD , f3Q . VVILLIAM T. CAMERON 17 years Undecided Bill is inclined to be unirnposing and quiet, but his remarks always bring the desired effect. William does many things well, including looking, but his main forte is playing the harp. Miss Slack uses him on all occasions, for the school and for the Parent-Teachers' Association. 'Tis a wonderful instrument on which to play a serenadekbut ff, bit ungainly to place beneath my 1ady's window. The future will iind him on the stage. We will gather together to hear his harmonious harmonies. He caries a jews-harp in his pocket on -which to prac- tice. But that's a detail. F
