HELEN MARGARET DILE “The heights by great men reached and kept Were not attained by sudden flight, But they, while their companions slept, Were toiling upward in the night.” — Longfellow. Now let us speak of Helen Dile, A cheery lass with a winning smile; Good nature and friendship’s a steady style; Steady, dependable- -all the while. Scholarship N 2, Essay Contest 4, Censowe 1-3-4, History Course. HARRY R. WILLIAMS “Men of few words arc the best men.” — Anon.

CARL G. SHOCKNESSE “Not failure, but low aim is crime.” — Lowell. Now here’s Shocky so tall, and his face is so thin— In looks he’s modern Abe Lincoln; But looks are deceivin’ —especially in him; He’s no statesman at all, I’m a thinken.

THELMA B. CROOK “Let others dispose of questions. I dispose of noth¬ ing. I arouse unanswerable questions.” — Whitman. Thelma Crook has her head in the book From sunrise to evening setting. But I can’t criticise, For I’m not so wise, Now a lesson I ought to be getting. Glee Club 1-3, Literary Staff 4, Censowe 1-4, Class His¬ torian 4, History Course. MEYER J. GOLDENBERG “For even though vanquished, he could argue still.” — Goldsmith.

Immigration Debate 1-3, Declamation Contest 1, Hi-Y 4, Scientific Course. GRETCHEN CHRISTINE BECK “Let the world slide, let the world go, A fig for care and a fig for woe.” — Heywood. Nobody knows what our Gretchen will do, When to North High School she bids sad adieu; But of one thing we’re certain her whole life through— That to all of her sorrows and fears she’ll say, “Shoo!” Censowe 2-3-4, Glee Club 3, Classical Course. BYRON G. QUERRY “A good name is better than r iches.” — Cervantes. Byron Querry is a husky little chap; He never says much and doesn’t give a rap; But let me tell where he’s right in his prime— On a football field in oodles of grime.

ARNOLD CALCAGNI “Life is real, life is earnest. — Longfellow. Lo and behold his bashful eyes, Wherein a world of wisdom lies; At bookkeeping he is a shark, We know, some day, he’ll make his mark. Scholarship Letter 3-4, Commercial Course. EDNA R. HUNSICKER “For never anything can he amiss When simpleness and duty lender it.”—Shahs fere. She can cook and bake, design and sew; She is quiet and modest, as all of us know, She’d make a domestic science instructor, But even a better home conductor.

RALPH EDWIN SOMMERS “Self reverence, self knowledge, self control — These three alone lead life to sovereign power.” —T ennyson.
