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.

Miss Florence aunouneed her- self in her Freshman year to he leader of the club, the aim of nhieh was to get the best time possible in tour years, and we think she has sueeeedeal, for she is one of the few who regret leaving school. Nevertheless, good times have not interfered with her lessons, whieh are usually finished exeept that 'bug-bear -Geometry. For the last year, Florence, as assistant liter- ary editor, has helped in 'making the La Perle IL success. ,In fact, she is the authoress of some most interesting short stories.

AMl,'l'ENNI:XN, '22 FRANKLIN ROBERT GDRGITS Aceclemic As a Freshman, Franklin -was very bashful, but he soon woke up to the fact that it would not pay. His social duties have never inter- fered with his studies which are usually com- plete QCD. He is very fond of Manual Train- ing and has done splendid work in it. As one of our first violinists of the school orchestra, he has, during the four years, help- ed to make it a success. His musical voice has also made him famous in the boys Glee Cluh of which he is -a member. Some day, perchance, when he has completed his violin studies and has entered the cultural world, his name will be flashed in gleaming lights above the entrance to the Metropolitan Opera. House.
