Heart on lzer lips, oml soul witlzin. her eyes, Soft is liter clime, and sznzny her skies. lYe could well say that llernice is the most quiet, modest and un- assuming girls in our class. This fact makes Bernice a very necessary member of the class for it is decidedly soothing to find someone who does not persist in burdening the air with his or her chatter at all times. Ever quiet and modest, she takes things as they come and never murmurs when cares and burdens oppress. Bernice is inclined to be alone. She never bothers anyone, but does everything in her own dehnite way. If you want her to talk, you will have to take the initiative She expects to go to Indiana Normal to prepare to teach. VVe know she will be an ideal teacher with her gracious ways. Grace McDivitt Betty Fommercial Course Red t'ross '24, '23, '26, Red Cross Speech '25, A. A..

Une would think, to look at Grace, that she is very quiet and unas- suming, hut it is only disguise. She tries to keep the noise under, but laughter escapes from her dark brown eyes. She is forever being cheer- ful and has a kind word for everyone. She is very talkative and she: keeps you cheered up. .Xnd friendly-leave it to Grace to make friends. Grace tells us she intends either to make use of the training which she has received in the commercial department or to go to Indiana Nor- mal next year to prepare to teach. lVe're with you, Grace, in whatever you do.

Dot evidently still believes in the saying ulittle girls should be seen and not heard, for scarcely do you hear a sound from her, unless called on. She is very modest and unassuming. Instead of talking and wasting her time, she is doing something useful. But sometimes we are inclined to think perhaps she is bashful. Hut then we do not know what is going on in the inside of her heart, while she is so still and quiet. Maybe great plans that will be revealed later. Dot has not decided what she will do next year, but we feel as- sured that success will come to her, in whatever career she selects.

Gertrude is the world's champion, rapid-fire, non-stop talker, but in spite of her speed and endless endurance she says a lot worth listening to when she exercises her great gift. No doubt the pupils who in some day, not so very far distant, will enjoy her instruction in English, will profit as much by her quick-wittedness and easy speech as we do, Gertrude expects to specialize in the teaching of English, which she will study next year either at Grove City or Pitt. If Gertrude doesn't make good, it will be because she deliberately chooses not to. Florence W. Lindsey Flo English Course Jr. Red Cross '23, '24, '25, '26g A. A.

VVe are not so very well acquainted with Florence but we do know that she is one person whom we might depend on if we were in need. Flo has not had an active part in scholastic activities as she is not the kind of a person who makes her presence known by her chattering as some of us do. Nevertheless, Florence has supported everything her more outspoken classmates have undertaken. VVe are perfectly satisfied with Flo's chosen vocation as a nurse for we know that her quiet capable actions will make her successful. And we feel sure her patients will feel lucky that they are under her care. Jane E. Mann Janie English Course Red Cross '23, '24, '26, A. A. '24, '26, American Education Speech '25. Her modest f1e111mnor's The jewel of t1'. Janie always greets us with a smile and a cheery good morn- ing when we come into Room S. She is always ready to sympathize with us when we have our little troubles and she can cheer us up, too. VVhen Janie is in the mood she can set us all laughing, but at other times she is very serious. If you want to find Janie at her best look for her at a party. She can make fun enough to go around the crowd and still have enough left for herself. She tells us that she expects to go in training in Detroit next year and we hope she will find success. i .Yfm

For when Peggy skips up the street or through the halls, she is liable to startle and waylay you if you don't take care. The Mirror Board would have been in want of a classnote editor if Peg had not been in our midst. Peggy has become one of the most popular girls in high school because of her kindness, pleasantness and her beauty. g E Peggy is undecided where to go next year but any college could l ff l consider itself lucky to have her on its roll. r g ' Edna Angela Morgan CLEd77 English Course ' A.

Care isn't even in Ed's 'vocabulary ex- cept the care for a certain college boy. Ed is the most happy-go-lucky person in high school. A look at her activities shows that she is one of the most popular girls in the high school too. Ed will be a singer some day because she's always practicing on the piece Charlie is my Darling. We wonder why. But Ed isn't to take up singing, so she says. Instead she is going to some college for Home Economics. She says it might come in handy some day. Paul Morgan CtFata'3? English Course A.

Paul used his voice to the best advantage in the Rising of the 1Ioon. But don't think that Fatal is only musical. Although he uses his voice in football, one could scarcely say he was musically inclined on hearing him shout the signals as he did last fall. Paul is very serious at times, although one would not think so if he would see him enjoying himself at our school parties. I ata intends to work next year, then go to school the following year. IVe know he will succeed. 11t'f'11Iy-oszf
