Elizabeth Jenkins- ''Fashioned so t ■ derly, Young and so fair.” Member of Alpha Phi, Glee Club, Athletic Association, and the editorial staff of The Eidolon. The gieatest fault that we find v iih Elizabeth is that she has no faults at all. She is always dignified, but with a sharp lookout for the sunny and funny side of life. A good student, a delightful companion, and a true friend. She has always been loyal to old 1911, and is willing to do anything for the class, but deliver an oration. She is fond of sleigh rides and measles, and is always ready to smile. May fortune ever smile upon her. Elizabeth is destined to be- come a great artist, and we were fortunate in having such a genius in the class when illustrations were needed for the Eidolon. Marshall Jones ' hove seldom haunts the heart where learn- ing lies.”—Selected by himself. Treasurer of class, treasurer of Business Com- mitteeof Eidolon, treasurer of Athletic Association, member of Alpha Phi and Deutscher Verein When the days were balmy Marshall used to be taken seriously sick, and after getting excused from school, would find it necessary to go out on the lake to recuperate. He has such a fasci until g way. that when he explains why some reprimand should not be administered for some rule he has broken, the teachers cannot help realizing it was only a trifle. He certainly cuts some figure with the ladies. In this respect it is unnecessary to tell him to Brace-up a bit, for he is always on the job. We hope Mart will be able to regain his health when he goes to S otland tnis summer, as the water always seems to revive him. 22

William B Foulk “Before we proceed further, hear me speak.” Editor-in-Chief of the Eidolon, secretary and Treasurer of the Milford Six, member of Athletic Association, and Alpha Phi. Bill has been steadily sawing wood through his High School course He has experienced a great respon- sibility since he assumed the office of editor-in- chief of the Eidolon Bill is a regular giant in stature and has quite a few freckles, but, notwith- standing, he is good natured and at one time claimed to be captain of X. V. Rifle Guards. Captain Bill is the biggest and most skillful bluffer in the High School, and with little trouble leads the teachers to discuss some of his numerous hobbies. He often goes to the second train in the morning—possibly to meet some of his friends from Lincoln. We predict a great future for him because he is the best scrapper and the biggest bluffer in the H.S. Margaret Holzmueller “Pleased with a rattle, tickled with a straw.” President of Alpha Phi and an active member of the Glee Club, Athletic Association and Deut- sclier Verein. Margaret, our musician, is a big (?) bunch of jolly, merry, easy-going humanity. She is really one of the characters of the class. Her favorite song is, “I Don't Know Where I’m Go- ing, But I’m On Mv Way.” She is very studious, but has a rapid method of learning, and does not expend an over amount of effort on her books. She has done a great deal for the Class of ’ll, and has won the friendship of the entire Class on account of her jolty disposition. 21

Helen Mahan. 'Give me a theme,’ the little poet cried, And I will do my part.” This young lady has such a checkered career in the H S. that we really cannot take the space to tell the various changes she has made since she has been here. Hut we can say, Helen, that we are glad fate has destined you for a member of old ’ll. Helen is the kind that attends strictly to business, and lets other people’s alone. By the pile of books and papers she is always carrying around with her, u might think she had the weight of a nation on her shoulders, but it is really only the great responsibility of being a senior. She is a cheerful, dependable kind of a girl, who makes others feel comfortable. Joseph Sipple “God made but one man from this mold—one was enough. ’ Joseph has held the office of president of the class through the four years we have been in the High School. He has been very faithful, and has accomplished much without appearing to do so. Joe’s attention is very much taken up by a girl in the Sophomore class, and he is frequently obliged to pass her seat on the way to and from the front of the room. If smiles may be taken in account, these expeditions are very profitable. “Sip” is very fond of the water, and every time he goes near the lake he seems to be obliged to fall overboard. If you must take a swim, please wear a bathing suit or stay off the end of Haswell’s pier. He is a member of the Milford Six, Alpha Phi and the Athletic Association and Deuts- cher Verein.
