Walter Achning:— “Men of sterling worth, are sometimes silent. Hans has been with us all four years. This year he could not find enough work to do at H. S. so he is taking typewriting at the Business College. We ex- pect to find him at K. U. next winter. Evelyn Hayden:—(Home Economics Club ’17; Y. W. C. A. ’17, ’18; Glee Club ’18; Normal 'Training.) “She seems so near but yet so far. Evelyn is one of our real “school marms”. She has already capitalized her completed Normal course by securing her school for next year. Kathleen Doering:—(O’lta ’15, ’16, ’17, '18; Secretary-Treasurer (Vita 16; Chairman Program Committee (Vita '17; Aesthetic Dancing ’17, ’18; Y. W. C. A. '17, ’18; Exchange Editor Budget '17; Literary Editor Budget ’18; Editor-in-Chicf Annual ’18; Honor Student.) The heart to conceive, the understanding to direct, and the hand to execute. When “Kat” travels up the Hill, next year, she leaves vacant a place which L. H. S. will have to “look sharp” to fill. She is not one who “climbs a tree and hollers,” but she is there with the deeds. Wc look for great improvement in the “Kansan” soon. Charles Ober Radcliffe:—(Boys’ Club ’15, 16, ’17; Student Council ’16; Senior English Class Play ’18.) For he’s bonny and braw, well favor'd witha’. And his hair has a natural buckle and a’. Charles is the very picture of masculine perfection in dress. This no doubt is caused by the influence of working on afternoons and Saturdays in Ober’s Clothing Store. But he’s a good hearted fellow and popular among the ladies. Gladys Charles:—(Y. W. C. A.) “Oh, she sits high in all the peoples. Gladys has not spent the entire sum of her High School days at L. H. S. but we are glad to have her graduate with Class '18. Here’s hoping she stays with us at K. U. next year. Vera Castles:— '‘Always gentle, sweet and true.” Vera is never too busy to give a smile and a merry w'ord of greeting to her friends. She is a wfec bit timid hut we love her for it, for then she is just Vera. She intends to go on the Hill next year. Charles Morgan:—(Class Treasurer ’14.) “Thou hast a piic-t, mysterious air. “Footney” is a man of lofty heights. His genial, independent way is liked and respected by all who know him. Women don’t bother him a bit. He has weightier things upon his mind. Araii Wiedman:—(Y. V. C. A. ’15; Junior Prom Farce ’17; Senior Circus Committee ’18; (Vita ’i( , ’17, ’18; Glee Club Y8.) “To have friends Is to bo one. “Asia” is one of those capable girls who can accomplish anything she de- sires. Her ambition is to become a business woman, so we will probably find her in Business College next year.

Prescott Underwood:—(Football ’16, ’17; Boys’ Club ’16, ’17, '18; Secretary Senior Class ’18.) life’s the king- o’ guid fellows.” “Pete” is the very personification of what a football hero should be. He is big—about 200 lbs. big—and when he prances out on the field every opponent trembles. “Pete” doesn't care anything about the other sex—except one of them. Lillian Mayer:—(Tennis ’17; Y. W. C. A. ’18; Chairman “Fats” Com- mittee Senior Class.) It Is good to lengthen to the last a sunny mood.” Lillian spent her Sophomore days in Omaha High School. However, she showed how wise she was by coming back to us again. Her rosy cheeks and good nature have won many friends for her. Her specialty is tennis, which she plays to perfection. She will go to K. U. next year. Virginia Beery:—(Y. W. C. A.: Aesthetic Dancing ’17.) Her ways are ways of quietness. Altho Virginia is seemingly ouiet, you should have seen her in the Senior Girls’ Circus. She will be on the Hill next year, which makes us very glad. Nellie Lynn:—(Tennis ’17; Basketball ’17, ’18; Knitting Club ’18.) If learning could keep a woman alive, she would outlive Methusalah. Nellie, with her great achievements in the line of knowledge, is another credit to the Class of '18. Altho she may not have received an L, she certainly deserves honorable mention. Emma Olson:—(Home Economics Club ’ 16; Normal Training.) Her ways are ways of pleasantness. Emma is one of our quietest girls but, as the saying goes, “Still waters lun deep.” She intends to teach little papooses reading and writing and arith- metic next year. We know that her pupils will all love her as her High School friends do. Eunice Artman:— Her heart as far from fraud as heaven from earth. Not only has Eunice undergone the usual course of knowledge in L. H. S., but she has also developed an electrical turn of mind to the delight of Hienie, who never tires of relating her exploits at Kent in that line. Cassie Taylor:—(Y. W. C. A.; Debating Club ’18; Aesthetic Dancing '18; Normal Training.) ‘‘She Is want to speak plain and to the purpose.” Cassie is one girl, at least, who can talk something else besides nonsense, as you would know if you ever ventured forth to debating. She is a good worker and a willing one. Georce Stevenson:—(Football ’18.) I know not of his brains, but his body hath great size. “Big Steve” evidently has brains or it would not have been possible for him to get a perfectly good diploma. George is a good sport and when it comes to real football he shines.
