Present mirtlz lzatlz present lIl'ZlglLZ'6l'.U Wln-never you see Helen, you see a happy smile and no doubt you lufar a hearty laugh. Oh yes, she has been cheated, it appears in avor- clupois. Helen has followed in the path of modern youth and as a result shi can almost get her hair up. Helen tells you just what she thinks, and talk, well, her seat is changed almost every day in English class. Helen never comes to class unprepared. She believes in doing so much. for each teacher. The easiest way to describe Helen is happy-go-lucky l midget. Helen is planning to go to Indiana Normal. 'We are sure some kiddies will love their teacher. Mary Jones Mary linglish Course jr. Red Cross, '26, '27, '28, '29, A. A., '28, '29, Girls' Cvlee Club, '27, tfatata, '27, As H1l'l'I'j' as the day is long. Although she has red hair, she does not have the customary temper. She is pleasant, meriy, and very good natured. She is an agreeable companion. liven though she likes her social life, she also gives a thought ro her school work.

Helen isn't by any means loquacious hut she can talk, especially when the subject concerns the tc-rrors of linglish 4, graduation, and a few similar subjects that take the joy out of her life. Shows seem to be quite interesting to Helen il her attendance at the Jefferson Theatre is any proof on this subject. Ht-len's vanity case is always her most cherished companion. In time of despair she opens the vanity, powders her nose, primps her hair i and feels hetter. Helen has not told us what she intends to do. Twenty

THE MIRROR Ralph Hollenbaugh Ralph Scim-ntitic Course jr. Red Cross '26, '27, '28, ITU, A. A., '27, '28, '20, .Xrt Club, '20, Science Club, '2U. Let us be silent, H1111 use lllllft' lzcnr the iulzisprrs of the gurls. Listen continually, but speak much less frequently. This is certain- ly the motto of Ralph. His presence in a class room is never known until everyone else has failed to answer the question. ln such a predica- ment, Ralph rises to the occasion with a smooth tiow of knowledge. Ralph does not concentrate in one subject but puts forth his best effort in every class. In doing so, he has compiled a record of which he is proud. However, Ralph's special interest is science and he has selected that for his future work. Ralph's perserverance and patience will go far tc-wards his success. Ralph has not decided on any college yet but will enter one that suits his fancy. Ethel Howe Ethel Commercial Course jr. Red Cross, '26, '27, '28, '29, A. A., '26, '29, Commercial Club, '2S. '29, Class Note Reporter, '2S. Come, perzsiw' nun, rlcvozzi and pzfrcu Pensive, devout and pure--that's Ethel in reality. Ethel has no close friends in school. She comes and goes with her sister. All her spare time is spent in reading, mostly modern novels. Ethel is very dependable. She wouldn't think of going into a class without the day's assignment, ready to hand in when called for. Ethel is so very modest. You never catch her powdering her nose or combing l1er hair. Ethel intends to be a stenographer, with her ability in the commercial subjects she will be very efficient. She has surely chosen the right vocation. Andrew Hritzko Andy Salutatorian Commercial Course Junior Red Cross, '26, '27, '28, '29, A. A., '27, '20, Commercial Club, '28, '29, Secretary of Commercial Club, '29, Indiana State Com- mercial Contest, '28, '29. By the work one knows the worknzanf' Andy is another honorable student who came to us from Adrian. His name has seldom failed to be on the honor roll since he entered f'unXs'y High. Andy holds an honor we should all envy, State Cham- pionship in Shorthand. Andy is very wise in one respect. He believes that business comes before the fair sex. That may be allright but we shall not be surprised when we hear that Andy has fallen like the rest of his 'brothers'. Perhaps you think 'fAndy is very quiet, but, when Bill and he get together, why-well, I guess it all depends on the company. Andy does not know what he will be when he finishes school, but, if we may judge, we will say, L'Secretary to Kellogg. Nineteen

Cares not a pin What they said or may say. Eddie has that carefree nonchalant air of the person who looks the world in the face. It seems that Eddie just doesn't give a care. Aiong with this phase of his character, one can also fmd a humorous trait. Kidding is Eddie's delightand he makes the most of it. Ed- die has a leaning toward the mature point of view and one is almost led to believe that he is older than he really is. However, there is still a lot of boyishness left in Lardin as his antics prove. Some times one has the opinion that Eddie is quiet and serious, but this thought does not remain long as Eddie cannot keep himself in this state fo1 any length of time. Eddie is undecided as to the profession he will enter but next year he will probably be found in some lNIilitary Academy. Sara Larnison Sal English Course ,li Red Cross, '26, '27, '28, '29, A.
