CGilbcrt 3J. tLUirraftatlr Gilbert joined our class the second year, coming: in from the country. He is a big:, husky fellow who has done excellent work in athletics. He en- tered in the track work ’12, played baseball ’12. football ’12 and basket- ball '12 and '13. He has a quiet unob- trusive manner and a very cheerful disposition. Although lie enjoys a good laugh he never goes so far as to cause one, for he prefers to keep out of trouble. He has always attended the class meetings but managed to steer clear of our scraps. And so he has proved a faithful student and a worthy addition to the Class of M3. • usthril Arnnlit If a visitor were to come up to school he would have to look long and care- fully before he would see a very small, flax on-haired maiden named Susibell. She is a “dear little thing’ and cap- tures the hearts of everyone, especial- ly of one of the boys. She is an excel- lent student, has great executive abil- ity and is a general favorite. The 1. H. S. will be a quiet place indeed when it echoes no more her merry laugh. Hiding hath no charms for her. she prefers taking her exercise a-la-Foote! Her services have been found most val- uable on many committees, especially refreshment. This year she is Secre- tary of the Senior Class and Vice Pres- ident of the Lyceum. Her “pet hobby” is Woman Suffrage, and she is very fond of arguing. ’Nuff said. As Associate Literary Editor she has prov- ed her worth, as one of the most val- uable members of the Senior class. (ftrrtruftr U, iUrnrk We believe we are a very witty, gay and useful class, collectively and indi- vidually. For proof of the charm of our individual members we introduce Gertrude, commonly dubbed Trude.” There is no one in the class more fond of a good time, and none more instru- mental in making a good time than she. Gertrude is fond of athletics and has played in the tennis tournaments for three years and is “some” player. She was boss of the Literary Depart- ment of the “Scraps” and in it you will find “proof” of the aforementioned wit ami usefulness.

(Contrita A. (Cattftrli» Yes, she piggies! She always lias, though, from the time she was a Freshman. We all giggled then, but Cornelia was original and didn’t stop it when the rest of us did. However, she has managed to do other things too, one of them being to wade through four years of Latin. The Lyceum has prospered well this last year because of her active interest: and besides, Cornelia plays tennis and plays it with a vim that makes the rest of us stand around and take notice”. As an Asso- ciate Literary Editor of the “Scraps” she has done wonders and I. H. S. is going to lose someone when it loses our Corn”. Airmail D. (Cliiisr Actions speak louder than words with Aledalu She is very reserved and seldom says anything unless she has something to say—would there were more like her! She is very stu- dious and pulls high marks as a re- sult. She is a talented pianist and has helped us out several times on our Lyceum programs. She has only been with us a year and we regret that we could not have had her through our whole four years of High School ex- perience. SItrtor Q. (Carlisle And now. you must pay good atten- tion and listen to the athletic record of one of our Senior boys. Baseball, football and track team all four years; basketball the last three; Captain of basketball the third year and of foot- ball the second: Manager of both foot- ball and basketball the fourth; besides being Secretary of the Athletic Asso- ciation the last year. and. oh! don’t you think that is almost enough? But the puzzle to the rest of us Seniors is— how did he ever manage to graduate at all when he was already managing so many other things? But neverthe- less. he has come out the Victor.”
