Lena may Smith -Harrell. H. H S. A. A. Modulus Staff 14, ' 15, 16. Lenamay has the honor of being - the only married girl in H. S. We were all very much surprised last summer when we read of the wedding in the papers. As her husband is away in school she decided to finish with our class and we ' re mighty glad to have her. She has been very generous with her time and has done splendid work with the jokes and the snapshots for our annual. As Joe will still be in college next year she tells us she is going to teach until they are ready to begin life in a cosy Tittle cottage just for two. Ruby Arm i Ida Hier. Chorus Art This flaxen-haired girl with the light blue eyes looks as though she were of German birth but she is French. We all enjoy her smiles which she distributes on us quite occasionally. It has made her many friends. She was always in- dustrious and studious and never came up without her lessons. She declared to us that she wished to become a kin- dergarten teacher but from the rumor that is current we are beginning to doubt this. Ruby is the one who originated the expression We should ponder over . John Oliver Hildebrand. German Club ' 14. Chorus. Boys ' Glee Club. John is one of our sturdy farmer boys. He is very fond of having a good time and not any too fond of studying. He has a great liking for tinkering with automobiles also Whether he spends his life at home on the farm or making- aeroplanes we hope that he will be suc- cessful and always win in the end. Cyril D. H. Hilyard. Debating Society, H. S. Play. Cyril has always been such a quiet, unassuming classmate that we have not become well acquainted with him. We do know that he nan give some line answers in 4-1 English. Whatever he decides to do we are sure he will win because he is a steady fellow. By the way from the manner in which he acted the part of Walker in the class play it seems he would make an energetic business man. Gerald Htird. Chorus, H. H. S. A. A. Burge is a fellow with high school spirit. He likes to attend class meet- ings, parties, yell meetings and in fact everything that requires school spirit. Pie knows how to take a joke good- naturedly and that is more than can be said of most people. His disposition is most admirable. As he has not de- cided what his future vocation is to be we would like to tell him that he would make an excellent lawyer.

Marie Luetta Shinkle. Orchestra, Vice-Pres. Sunshine Society. H. H. S. play. That little girl with such an independ- ent air about her? Why that ' s Marie Shinkel. And when you know her you will certainly like her ' cause she is not as saucy as she looks. She made a mighty pretty chorus girl in the play- She is undecided as to what she will do in the future and I ' m sure I can ' t guess, can you ' . ' Minta Elizabeth Skinner. Chorus ' 13, ' 14. Minta is a girl who is alwavs think- ing bow she can do something tor some one. In doing this she forgets her own personal needs but does that only which will comfort the one in need. If you can find anything more admirable in a young girl then this self-forgetfulness while doing good for others I don ' t know what that trait would be. Out- class has always had cause to be proud of Minta ' s English recitations. They certainly show her love and taste for that work and she leaves us onlv to continue this in college. Masdelena Martha Smith. Chorus. Special Voiov Art, II. H. S A. A. Magdelena is one of the demure little maids of the class alwavs ready for a good time, and always smiling. Occa- sionally the smile gets the better of her and then it fast develops into a bad ease of giggles. She has a fine musi- cal ability, being one of the few that are able to play an Italian harp. As a teacher of music she will meet with the greatest success, we feel confident. Donovan Herbert Spencer. Debating Club. H. H. S Track Team ' 15. Here ' s Speenie . our history sharK. If anybody wants any information con- cerning the kings, wars, or government of ancient times they have only to ask Donovan. He would make a fine pro- fessor of history but if he wishes to succeed thoroughly in this calling be will have to rjuit the awful habit of biting his nails. No one tried harder to help win last year ' s track meet for the H. H S. than did Donovan H. Burton Stephan. Acropolis Staff. H. S. B. B Team. Chorus ' 15. ' 16 Brainy is one of the best tvpes of all round H. S. students. He is an athlete, a scholar, a true gentleman, popular among the girls, and full of high school spirit. Te all realize how suc- cessful our basket ball team has been under his leadership as captain, and ap- preciate the fact that he has sacrificed many a good time to be in physical con- dition to win a game for us. We hear that he intends to become a teacher, and we think that he is very wise in his choice.

Mildred Helena Riter.our. Modulus Staff. ' Millie is one of our most indus- trious and studious girls. She is a jolly true friend when one gets acquainted with her hut she never has much to say and has never distinguished herself in a scrape with any of the teachers. Can always be seen with Mildred Marker or Ruby Hier with whom she seems to have an excellent time. To teach is her aim, and may her pleading personalities bring her as much success there as they have in H S. Donald Bert Russell. Acropolis Staff. Modulus. Ben is a busy business man. When it comes to talking business he is right there. He delights in using tremen- dously long words and high sounding phrases. Therefore he was in the height of his glory playing the part of the old pro fessor Adam Biddicut and. did it mighty well. No wonder he makes such a capable executive business man- ager of this annual. He is very de- cided, in his opinions and likes to have his own way whenever possible. He In- tends to enter Northwestern university next fall. Mary Julian Scheerer. Modulus Staff, Art. Mary is a rare girl, rare for the fact that she tends strictly to her own bus- iness. That is an unusual trait in a girl and especially in a senior girl. She never talks much but she studies. if you don ' t believe this just take a look at her test grades. From what we hear from the Commercial department she shines there and we are informed that she means to make this her future oc cupation; one in which she will be bound to succeed. If Mary would ever desire to take up basket ball -she could star at p laying center. Ruth Schwartz Chorus. If you happen to hear anybody around school yell Gee Girls, come here, I want to tell you something, you may know that Swartzie is near. Ever since she graduated in January we have missed her noisiness. Ruth is always energetic and full of life. Even now she is a full-fledged bookkeeper and stenographer working in her father ' s of- fice. Effie Mary Settlemyre. Effie is a quiet conservative maid who never says much and when she does speak it is in a very small voice. We don ' t believe she was ever known to lose her temper: at least never to lose it when she was in the old H. H. S. She has an abundance of brown hair which she wears braided simply and twisted around her head. To become a stenog- rapher is her highest ambition and we fervently hope that success will follow her in this undertaking.
