FREDERICK GEORGE FRos'r, JR. Priiaiceton Here's our president and not a bit high hat, as everybody knows who ever saw him. Y0u've heard of kings who dressed as peasants and chatted in the market places with their subjects. Not many class presidents con- descend to do that, but our Fritz is friendly to everybody-one reason why the seniors had such a wonderful year. We could tell Princeton what they're getting when they get Fred, but theyill ind it out soon enough themselves.

' HIELEN LAYCOCK Alviere School Sometimes our eyes become tired looking for pretty things with which to rest them. At such times we look at Helen, an excellent remedy. Try it.
