ie Co ?crsea ? Virgil Boyle Donora, Pa. ' Virg Philo; President of French Club, Pan ' s Anniversary Donor-Senior Class. This is a maiden most graceful and airy, Who, as she dances resembles a fairy. Virg is the shark in French. Her trans- lations are so free and easyhke, in fact, they are so free that sometimes they become flighty. But Virg is an all-around girl; she can twinkle her toes, tickle the ivories and cut classes to perfection. Mamie V. Brant Rockwood, Pa. John Philo; German Club; Y. W. C. A. John is a lass who hails from the hills of Somerset County. Anyone who hears her recite in German would guess as much. John has a very cheerful disposition and a sym- pathetic nature which has won for her many friends who join us in wishing her God Speed in her chosen profession. Anna Elaine Brown Brownsville, Pa. Ann Clio; Clio Contestant (Essay); Medal for Shakespearean Essay; Delphic Society; Pan ' s Anniversary; Deutcher Verein; Editor-in-Chief of Calnorsean. Siveet and modest like a queen A more charming girl was never seen Quietness, gentleness marked her grace ilnmarred beauty shone in her face. Ann has come to us from that Great Metro- polis, N. Y. C. She is a girl of unusual talents and has contributed of them freely in all departments of Normal life. She has done much for the class and has never been unwilling to offer the best of her mind and strength for whatever she has been asked to do. We shall remember her as a charming girl, a capable student and a young woman whose friendship is a choice possession. 24

7 fe Co ?orsea 7 Sara Eleanor Billick Elizabeth, Pa. Graduate from Elizabeth High School. Clio; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet; German Club; CHo Program Committee. Very tidy and very trim Very industrious and very prim With work always ready, and time to spare, This describes Sara, we all declare. Sara, a willing worker, is always busy; she is efficient and dependable and ever faithful to the alloted task. Though she enjoys good times as much as any of us, she has never been drawn into the whirl of Paradise Alley. She stands for what is safe and sane and is always true to herself. Webster Black Ninevah, Pa. Web Philo, President; Secretary of Y. M. C. A.; Basketball, 1916-1917; Manager of B. B., Manager, ' 17. Web ' s range of activities within the school has made him a prominent member of the Class of 1917. In athletics he has proven himself a valuable asset, having also served credibly as the manager of the Basketball Team. His success in the Model School has clearly indicated his ability as teacher — but, it is rumored that Florence doesn ' t like men who teach. LUCETTA K. Bo YD Finleyville, Pa. Lucy Clio; German Club: Y. W. C. A. Lucy is quite a fortune teller, but somehow she never could tell her own satisfactorily. Once upon a time she was very fond of the game Chess but now, she refuses to play it at all. We cannot tell the readers why. We shall allow them to guess. Her favorite period of the day is the 1 :00 o ' clock. We all wish her success in her chosen field of work. 23

T e Ca ?crsea ? Odessa M. Bush R. F. D. No. 1, McKeesport, Pa. Z)pss Clio and Delphic Societies (Summer School). Eyes so transparent That thru them one sees the soul. Dess isoneof the happiest girlsof our class, but why shouldn ' t she be for she is an excellent teacher and since this is the profession she has chosen well she might be happy. Mable Buttermore California, Pa. Latin Club; Philo Society; Athletic Associa- tion. An earnest effort is always rewarded. Mabel is a good student, unassuming and a consistent worker. She absorbs knowledge like a sponge absorbs water, so why say more, unless it be that we wager she succeeds? Hard working and demure, Good luck she ' ll ever have, we ' re sure. Philomena Charleton 1 Washington, Pa. Minn Clio-Program Committee, Critic, historian; Class Pessimist, German Club. For if she will, she will, you may depend on ' t; And if she won ' t, she won ' t, so there ' s an end on ' t. Minn is the midget of the class-little, but oh my! Has received a degree in Candy making, program making, and seeing that the Model School kids walk the chalk line. Only fault we find with her is she is too prim — if she ' d only say a slang word once in a while, ' twould be relief. 25
