EDITH L'EI?ECC'A .EASTERDAY Happy 1 am, from cure Pm frcc, Why crrenft they all just ws happy as one? Edith, better known as HGl'2ll1ll'lliGH has a loving and generous disposition. Good tem- per, like a sunny day, sheds fl brightness over everything, seems to be her motto. The Campfire group is proud to claim her as one of its members, for Edith was faithful to duty and service. Mice, bees, bats and bugs are pzwtieuiarly horrifying to Edith, and not even the most energetic naturalist can ever be able to change her views. But in spite of that Edith enjoys fishing trips in her dreams. Her host of class friends will all miss her laughing countenance. Edith desires to enter Normal and follow the profession of teaching. We may some day hear of her having joined the Northa,mpton Teaching Corps. May fortune speedily bring her the best it has in store. good spirits.

irflihni LILLIA N DILLIA RD Some are popular for one thing, others for another thing, but Lilly is popular with all and everywhere because she is Lillian Dilliard. She is an A No. 1 sport and a thorough-bred. Among the many offices which she holds with distinction among the girls is that of Class COIIIIIIGIHGIIHS. Lilly and her Smile are insep- arable. But to the public this maiden is known mainly for one thing-basketball. If we live to bc as old as Methusla.

We will always see her, in a skirmish of the game, or rushing out of a Catasauqua Clinchll with the lball held aloft, and screaming at the top of her voice to her eo-mates in the game. Thus forever after, when N. N. S. shall have grown mellow with age, and we of 1920 shall, perhaps, be Fitting cheek by jowl, wrapped up in shawls in invalids chairs, muttering.

Tootie is not much of a. whale at his lessons but when it comes to telegraphy and manual training this son-of- a railroader becomes one of the bright lights. If Tootie keeps up the good work, he might be able to make some of these sharks in tele- graphy look like a. crowd of pikers. Here 's to your future Tootie.-What?-Why ask such a foolish question?

HELEN MINERVA LEIBENGUTH Perhaps Helen would be surprised to know that one of the boys in her class termed her a. good sport and perhaps she wouldn't care either. Helen is the kind of a girl who doesn't seek intimaeies. Ever since Elsie left school Helen has travelled her own way, not bother- ing any one. No one else could fill Elsie's place, so Helen thought-for you must know they were chu-ms. Helen being the Junior part- ner of the firm, Weitkneeht and Leibenguthf' lf she excelled in Math as she does in making bead work and pretty things, she would, without a doubt, receive 100W-but such is not the case. She has given us no inkling of what she intends to be, but l believe it is a school teacher. If sueh is the case, here 's for luck. Creatures, they -my, are tutne m proportion to their size.
