Babe january 16, 1919 U1 lrowe that countenance cannot lie, Whose thoughts are legible in the eie Somehow he always manages to keep his nose in a war time con- dition, and the causes range from mouse-traps to Mack trucks. i'Babe is the genius in the Math. class and no matter what happens, he never loses his sunny disposition. Maybe, it is the suspenders he wears which attracts the weaker sex, or is it his personal imagination? If all goes well, we, his fellow students, may have to address him as Admiral Kiskis, because he is doing well in the competitive exams for entrance to Annapolis. LILLIAN CAROLINE GINSBERG New Britain, Conn. i'Lily january 31, 1919 1 count myself in nothing else so-happygas a soul remembering my good friends We do wish that you wouldnt stick to your points of argument, Lily , and give us a chance to say something once in a while. Lily has an extensive vocabulary and doesn't hesitate to use it. The Trade School will miss A'Lily because she has danced in three successive shows. We don't know what your future plans are, but the class wishes you success. Girls' League. EDWARD JULIAS KOONZE New Britain, Conn. A'Ed january 16, 1919 Though his suit was rejected, He sadly reflected That a lover forsaken A new love may get 'iEd loves to do home work and is crazy about reciting during a class period. He goes in for sports and likes the opposite sex, but doesn't seem to use the right technique in landing a girl. He is a wizard at dancing and does the new steps like nobody's business. But all in all, Ed Koonze is a great guy and friend. Maybe he will follow in the steps of his brothers and join the Navy to become an Admiral. Who knows?

Minnie july 30, 1917 'iMy way is to begin at the beginning Mary can get excited over the slightest thing, She can talk you deaf, dumb, and blind when you get to know her. Mary also has her serious moments, for she always has her school work prepared on time. We hear that your ambition is to be a stenographer. You can be sure that there is always a place for a good one, Girls' League. ZIGMUND JOSEPH KULAS New Britain, Conn. Ziggy August 16, 1918 A' Keep up appearancesg there lies the test 'AZiggy , as he is called, can be distinguished by his appearance. He is a tall, lanky fellow, sociable and good-natured. He is usually found either in the bookkeeping room or in the Office Practice class, so we assume he is somewhat of an accountant. During his spare time he is a shoe salesman. This work probably requires keen judgment when it comes to fitting shoes to certain dames. We hope his customers leave satisfied. His ambition is to become a business man and he has certainly succeeded in getting a fine start. Baseball.

Lenny May 2, 1918 Put your foot down where you mean to stand Seeing Lenny makes one think of an industrious person. He is a hard worker and strives on until the task is finished. Most of his spare time is spent in reading, although he also participates in sports. His quick step, however, comes in handy when he has forgotten his books, and it may come in even handier, when he starts working as a bookkeeper, which is his present goal. that you will render service!
