Fourteen P. H. S. META HELEN E. ARGETES “Hence, loathed Melancholy 1” Every little mark in shorthand has for Helen a peculiar meaning. And the taps she makes on her typewriter are music to her ears. We’re under the impression that in the life that lies ahead Helen will make her mark and will tap out many happy tunes. ELSIE R. BALNAVES “Speech is silver, silence is golden. We have enjoyed having Elsie with us these last four years and will be sorry to lose her companionship. Al- though she has not entered into many school activities she has been a friend to us all. Best of luck in the future, Elsie! VIVIAN D. BARNETT Full of gentle kindness Her looks and language are. A cheery smile, and a kindly manner seem to set Vivian apart from mere mortals. Her charming ways and in- born graciousness are certain indica- tions that she will win and hold many friends in the years to come. No one has more sincere wishes for the best than has our “Viv.”

P. H. S. META Fifteen 1937 GEORGE BARAOS “Let no man know thy business save thy friend.” George is quiet even to the extent of sometimes being very, very quiet. But we’re told on good authority that under that reticent manner of his are qualities, golden qualities that will win for George a high position in the business world for which he is pre- paring. CHRISTUS BATALAPvIS “Men of few words are the best.” FOOTBALL On first meeting Chris, one is im- pressed by his slow but sure demeanor. Although a deliberate thinker, his judgment is always sound, not only in the classroom but on the football field. If Chris adheres to these attributes throughout life, it is inevitable that success will be his. LILLIAN A. BATEMAN “All things may seem easy to the industrious.” SPANISH CLUB May we present Lillian, one of Pea- body High School’s most talented pen- men. During the four years she has spent with us her charming smile and her perpetual ambition, together with her sunny nature, have endeared her to us all.
