FLORENCE FARRELL When we mention Florence's name, we imme- diately become astonishingly cheerful even though we dun't see her radiant smile. Flo is a girl who Will long be remembered among her class- mates for being very witty and of irreat fun in general. Chorus 125: Spanish Society 137: Props and Paintsg Minstrelsg Senior Play. IRV IN G STREMLAU You can't blame Irving for anything, since he hangs around with Hirst. He's as innocent as he looks Cat least that's what we boys thinkj. He was point editor of the Pennant and Miss Harrison surely had some job censoring Irving's jokes. Nevertheless we all enjoyed those that managed to pass. Irving is rather temperamental and he enjoys singing, although the stage has somewhat drawn his attentions from the former.

BERTHA DESMOND Bertha is a real, honest-to-goodness dancer. Solo dancer we mean. She specializes in bare- foot dancingf and it is said that the splinters in the High School stage have been the bane of her existence. But then, all true artists are willing to suffer for the sake of their art. She paints extremely well and she was also an excellent manager of the Minstrels. So sum it up, she is a very clever girl. Junior College Club: Props and Paints: Chorus: Manager Minstrels MJ. LYDIA. HARTIC Lydia Hartig's raven tresses and fair complex- ion have long been the objects of much admira- tion on the part of her classmates. Lydia is quiet by nature, but we all know her to be a mood sport. She is seldom seen apart from her lxosom friend, K. Heike. Shorthand Club.

DOROTHY CHATFIELD She's a good sport. What more need be said? We think that that sums up all her good quali- ties and presents her as a thoroughly likeable girl. Dot never refused an oral theme topic, no matter how difficult it might be, and she al- ways strove when criticising another person's theme to be candid and fair. She has surely proved steady and helpful throughout her four years here. HILDA PERKINS How we have always lcnged to be, say, a quarter as good-looking as Hilsla Perkins. How- ever, we realize that that is beyond the hope of ordinary mortals. Hilda has done her work well all through high school. In fact, she has been at different times Miss Stowell's one and only hope in the Library Club. For this reason again we must give Hilda a place among the immortals.

This used to be Lester's motto and a pretty good one for two reasons. Wireless and chemistry are two other weaknesses which can be attributed to him. Lester had a good imagination, nevertheless, which he seem- ingly used to fine advantage when he Wasn't prepared in Solid. Minstrels 1413 Radio Clubg Spanish Clubg Glee Club: R. O. T.

Helen is an excellent authority on boys, and is also ve1'y popular with them. Her cute dimples, coy glance, and curly bobbed hair would supply that information though, wouldn't they? Helen is very entertaining and her oral themes have delighted the CP IV B Eng- lish Class.
