You need go no further if it's for a real true pal you are searching. Roxie is a sport, through and through. Although her studies do not cause her a great deal of an- xiety, she loves old N. B. H. S. with the love of a patriot. Her car is al- ways at the disposal of the boys of the High School teams, and many are the times that the lioys accept the kindness of this remarkable little chauffeur with her Studebaker. flROck7Y SUSIE BLANCH EATON Brinson Recitation Medal, '19g Vice- President Class, '20: Class Secretary, '21: Christmas Play, '20: Operetta, '21: High School Recitation Medal, '22: Tri-City Recitation Medal, '22: Glee Club, '22g President S.

Susie is a notable example of how much natural ability is enhanced by application. Her ability for recita- tion is unequaled in N. B. H. S. She plays unmercifully on the feel- ings of her audience. When she would have some teardrops fall, she says a few sad words and straightway she is rewarded by a How of tears. If laughter is what she wants, she knows only too well how to extract that from her audi- ence. Susie is one who acts inde- pendently, thinks independently, and doesn't in the least mind telling you what she thinks. With her ani- mation and spirit, we feel confident of her success in life.

For if she will, she will and you may depend o1z't And if she won't, she won't and the1'e's an eml on't. Here's to the girl who's what she is. She is loyal to her class, to her school, and whatever she believes in she sticks to through thick and thin. We always think of deter- mination, decision and promptness when we think of Mary. Let her once decide a thing and that's the end of it. Let her once determine to do a thing and it is done. , Mary Twenty-seven LILLIAN DAVIS Operetta, '21g Athletic Association, '20- '21-'22g Marshal, '22: Class President, '21g Vice-President, '22, I pin my heart to no man's sleeve. Have I not two eyes of my own? Lillian has never let her studies interfere with her social life. Yet we will be willing to bet that few of the book-worms have gotten any more out of high school life than Lillian has. By combining her Chemistry and Geometry she has a fair mixture of work and pleas- ure, and she has also seen that the Senior privileges lso fewj are not given in vain. When others grum- ble and complain, turn to Lillian who with her sunny disposition and jolly laugh, will prove a friend worth while. Lillian !

Her modest demecmofs the jewel of all. Thelma blushes at the slightest offense. Almost any time you can see her struggling with her math. You might think she is Very quiet, but she is lively and Very enter- taining. Eula delights in teasing her about her curiosity. She works hard on her business course, but she takes life easy and has a smile for everyone she meets.

Though modest, on her zmembar- rassed brow, Nature had written, 'Lady'. Here is a rare girl who can keep up a gay social life without neglect- ing her studies. She always has a good time and yet is well up in her classes. She is popular and de- serves it, too. A better sport would be hard to find. She was chosen for the title role in our Senior Play and her acting has won her much commendation. By many she is considered the prettiest girl, not only in our class but in the whole high school. Altogether she is a very desirable companion and we think ourselves fortunate indeed to call her our friend. Margaret
