V ' - 'rail' 93 W ','T 'xr' V V1 B7 - 2,41 Since history is a part of the inevitable sequel of every eventful life I suppose I must bow to the inevitable and make known to posterity my disposition and abil- ities which would otherwise lie hidden as Gray, in his immortal elegy, so iitly says: Full many a gem of purest ray serene The dark, unfathomed caves of ocean bear: Full many a flower is' born to blush unseen, And waste its sweetness on the desert air. I am a tall, graceful maiden, with dark hair and eyes, a creamy complexion, quick and energetic action, thus making me a general favorite, If anyone has any doubt as regards this statement, just come and see me and your doubts will ily be- fore my charms. My school record has been one continuous success, honors piling up high until-I woke up and found it was a dream! BEATRICE LAFLEUR, ,27. 7 Not everyone is born to shine, yet I am considered one of the shining lights of the class, so much so that I have often heard would that there were more like him 5 you see, I have a charmed life-not charming, don't confuse the terms. As to my personal attractions tif I am not mistaken, I think that is the way to begin, isn't it?j I have sparkling blue eyes and blonde hair, am short of stature and not meant for hard work in this hard work-a-day world. I just LOVE school work, but I believe in a little rest now and then is relished by the best of men -and I do my resting frequently, so as not to wear out the wonderful human mechanism before time. There's one thing I have never really appreciated and that is-an alarm clock, and even a musical one, in the early morning. They say, if time is money, you can't accuse a lazy man of being stingyf' V FRANCIS REINHART, ,27. Twinkle, twinkle little star How I wonder what are you? I advise you to cease wondering, for that little twinkling star was no other but myself, little Georgie, and I have been shining ever since, in season and out of season, in school and out of school, why even on the athletic field, though I am only four feet in height, ditto in width. But not in sports do I twinkle most, but in poring over business lore, shorthand hieroglyphics, and deep mathematical prob- lems. Don't be surprised to hear my name mentioned as the Star Champion of the World's greatest activities-I was destined to shine, you see. The desire of glory is the torch of my mindf' GEORGE CLUMB, '27.

I was one of the girls whose turn it was to put the classroom in order after the day's work. While arranging things behind the bank, my partner, thinking I had left the room, locked both doors. Great was my consternation upon trying the door to find that it was locked. I raised the window to summon aid when a sud- den fancy struck me. Why not grasp this opportunity to do what I had always secretly yearned to do-to fill the coveted place at the teacher's desk. Acting on this fancy I immediately took possession of the teacher's desk and chair, put on the Inien and posture of an experienced pedagogue, and gave the imaginary as- sembled students a peppy lecture. Having amused myself thus for a full hour, I grew tired and hungry. How fortunate that I should have taken Iny luncheon with afriend at noon and thus was still in possession of my own neatly packed luncheon. Never was a meal more greatly relished than this left-over noon luncheon. Then I decided to await the ringingof the Angelus and hail the janitor as he left the church. With that intention I rested my head a little on the desk and fell into a sound sleep that lasted about four hours. The noise of some passing auto woke me and I started up in affright to find myself in utter darkness. The flash of another passing auto revealed the hand of the clock pointing to ten. There was nothing else to do but to remain in school all night. The folks at home would not be alarmed, thinking I was at the house of a relative whom I had intended that day to visit. A strange fear crept up my spine as old forgotten ghost stories loomed up like mocking visions and I bethought myself of some place of security. I'll hide behind the bank, thought I. No sooner thought but done. Making myself com- fortable with the filing case as a pillow and my warm coat as a quilt, I soon dropped off to slumberland. A sudden crash made me start up in fear and trem- bling-and was it a lightning flash that made me look and find the faithful hand of the clock pointing to twelve-the hour of ghosts? Be it as it may, I became aware of a strange commotion in the room and a feeling akin to horror made me cover my head in ghastly dread! W'hen at last I had summoned enough courage to investigate the cause of this unearthly racket, I was astonished to find' the room flooded in moonlight, almost as bright as day. Cautiously peeping around the corner, I beheld a sight hardly possible to describe, yet one that held me spell- bound and fascinated to such a degree that I nearly exclaimed aloud. Would you believe it-every chair in the room was prancing about the room and chattering enough to outdo the monkeys-the typewriters were clicking their keys and run- ning their carriages to and fro and talking like real human beings-the tables were bobbing up and down in a rather dangerous manner, the clock stepped down from Vx , .
