7 ie Ca 7crsea 7 Alma M. Carson Coal Center, Pa. Clio Society; Athletic Association. Serene and resolute and still and calm and self-possessed, Alma is one of our Model young ladies, and is in possession of the admirable art of keeping her temper unruffled under all conditions. The inner office knows her not and she has not shown sufficient interest in the permit depariment to be enrolled as a mem- ber of the Only present in Spirit Society. Her success as a school marm has been decided from her efficient work in the Model School. Clara A. Carson Coal Center, Pa. Clio Society; Athletic Association. Four years ago, Clara came to us, so she is well versed in the ups and downs of Normal School life. Has very little to say, but always answers intelligently when called on in class. Her aspiration is to be a Missionary to the Fiji Islands. Grace A. Christy Elizabeth, Pa. Philo Society; German Club. Grace seldom does anything out of the ordinary, just coming and going like a pendulum. We can picture her in a school- room, all her pupils hard at work, while the teacher sits back at ease with a calm and serene look upon her face. Teaching is not her only talent. It is always a pleasure to her to be able to perform on the violin whenever asked to do so. •26

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

7 e Ca ?orsec 7 Walter Church Rogersville, Pa. A man who knoivs his oivn business and can mind it well. Philo; Contestant Debater; Inter-Normal Debater; Manager Baseball, 1916-17; Foot- ball; German Club; Y. M. C. A. Church is a quiet, unassuming sort of fellow who does not say much until he has something to say — a virtue worthy of cultivation. He never takes up anything without a fixed determination to do his best. As he is in all the activities of the Normal, he has become well known to all the class. We can safely predict for him success in whatever line of work he enters. During his Senior year, he has developed a strange hypnotic power which makes him somewhat feared in South Hall. Helen Conaghan Belle Vernon, Pa. Connie Connie came into our midst two years ago from the Belle Vernon High School. Here is a real type of the Brunette Beauty, the embodiment of dignity. To some she seems almost scornful, and yet she does not mean it. Those who have been interested enough to work their way thru her armor of reserve have found a kind, true, tender heart. Virginia Conn Point Marion, Pa. Y. W. C. A. Vice President; Philo, Vice President; Philo Play. Of all things bright and beautiful, All creatures great and small: All things wise and wonderful, Bobby exceeds them all. Gin was a very bashful girl when she landed at C. N. S., but two years have made a great change in her. Beside being a good student she has taken an active part in the Y. W. C. A. and was one of the girls sent to Eagles Mere. 27
