PEARL IRENE HILLS Commercial 17 ev' 'na-nie is Pearl, She is a jewelg Um' pia-110-plzryivzg Is the tallr of the school. Never early, never late, always on time. Such seems to be the motto of this dark-eyed maiden, for she lives up to it very Well. Pearl fa pretty name belongs to a pretty girl, you knowj is always eheerfulg 'which ex- plains the reason for her being so popular among the girls-and lboys. As to Pearl 'S abilities in flramatics and pub- lic speaking, anybody ,who counts at all can tell you of her success in several plays, and how easily she ran away with second prize in the Oratorical Contest. We feel confident that the Campfire Girls could scarcely get along without her because of her activity in that organization. Some people say that a person who can play the piano well can make the typewriter hum. lf tha.t's the ease, we know why it is that Pearl can make the typewriter look like a per- petual inotion machine. Pearl expects to be a counuei-cial teacher, and we are sure she will bc successful if she should carry out her plans and be as cheerful, pleasant, faithful and upright as she is now.
