Handsome Harry july 12, 1916 Handsome is as handsome does Better known as Handsome Harry , he is an ambitious student and is not a person who will shrink away from work. He is an honest and trustworthy person.

Questions which he is asked are always answered as clearly and as plainly as possible. On the gym floor he is very sociable and full of pep and vigor, He is liked by all his fellow students. He may not be called exceptionally smart or clever but when he has a test to tackle he may be found in a corner studying away at his books, He is very chatty and always talking about modern problems. We call him Nicke-e-e-e-e . SADYE DORIS HAROIAN New Britain, Conn.
