I LERA BELLE ROUSE Music Club (4). “For her heart was in her work, and the heart giveth grace in every art.” Lera Belle is one of a set of twins and of course Lois is tlie other. To those who still confuse the two, we had better say that Lera Belle is the Frenchy one as to hair and eyes. We’re all fond of our pretty little Lera Belle and predict a happy future for her and her fortunate help meet. LOIS ROUSE Athletic Association (3) : Dramatic Club (4) : Class 1‘oet (4). “Remember, ever, thru ' storm and stress, That over the hilltop lies success.” Lois is so down-right sensible, there is no foolishness about her, and you may “lay to that.” It is so rare to find someone who possesses that virtue in abundance that she stands honored in a class of people who would gladly possess it too. LYLE SITTER SOX Class President (1) : Debating Club (2( ; Ath- letic Association (2, 3, 4) ; Class Treasurer (3, 4) ; Chairman Dramatic Club (4) ; Basket- ball (4i; Business Manager Kay-Aitch-Bss (4). “Ilow happy is he born and taught. That sereeth not another ' s will.” Scientifically analyzed Lyle is a rare com- bination of intellectuality, argumentacious loquacity, and egois tical perspicacity. We predict for him a successful future in head- lines like this: ENSIGNUS NAUTI CO- RUM, DILIGENTIA, CUM LES FEMMES, et E PLUR1BUS UNUM. SELAH ! SARAH TAYLOR Music Club (2) ; Athletic Association (3, 4) : Dramatic Club (4). “A tiny voice, but it says much.” Who is that cute little Freshman? Hush, that’s no Freshman, but one of our most dignified Seniors ! Who started that old saying that “Precious gifts come in small packages”? This applies very well to our dainty little Senior, Sarah Taylor. 20

She ' s our class Beauty, some basket-ball player, and her art work can speak for it- self. We’re proud to acknowledge her as our classmate, tlio’ she seems more inter- ested in the Junior Order. FRANCES PULLEY Dramatic Club (2, 4) : Athletic Association (2. 4) ; Kay-Aitch-Ess Staff (4). ‘ Her jo i s are as deep as the ocean: Her troubles, as light as the foam. Would it ever occur to you, Gentle Reader, that Greek and jokes could be mixed up into one bead with no detriment to either? Well, it can, because Frances has proved it conclusively. She is witty, merry, and gay, and withal, fine and in- telligent. MARIE ROGERS O ' Henry Literary Society (2); John Charles McNeil Literary Society (4) ; Athletic Associ- ation (3). “Look over mg past and tell If I have not done my duty well.” Marie’s a good old sport and everybody likes a sport. That is a big reason why we like Marie. Then she is one of that kind who is always there when she is needed — still another reason why we value her so highly.

Is she pretty Oh, my, yes!” Here’s a girl who constantly wears an R. S. V. P. smile that proclaims to the world that she enjoys life and would like to have us all enjoy it with her. The minute you meet Esther, you love her be- cause it is the only thing to do. GEORGE EARL WILLIAMS Athletic Association f2, 3. 4) ; Literary Club (2) ; Dramatic Club (4). “A jolly sprightly little fellow.” Mischief personified, George Earl is always on hand to pep up things for us.

With a brilliant, original mind,” What would the class of ’27 be without Charles? He, with his wit and humor, keeps us in a happy state of mind. Then, when the time comes to be serious, he is always there. His school work is good and he is a jolly good fellow among both boys and girls. DOROTHY WOOTEN O ' Henry Literary Society (1) ; Secretary-Treas- urer of Class (2) ; Music Club (2) ; Dramatic Club (4). “ Dignified , steady, faithful, true That’s Dorothy with eyes so blue.” Stage I — The Freshman, young and green.

Stage IV — The Senior, Princess Kinston, radiant in white, shyly pledg- ing her heart and hand to Prince Education. 21
