CHARLES WINSTON SUTER Philomathean Literary Society; Parliamentary Critic, ’29; Cast, “Kathleen.” “A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.” Here is our class grouch, a title bestowed, we feel, somewhat erroneously, for W inston seems to he very jovial at times. Perhaps, it is his natural reticence that disguises his friendliness. EM M A JANE SHULTZ Phnenix Literary Society, Cirl Reserve Club, ’26-’29; Treas¬ urer, Girl Reserves, ’27-’28; Literary Critic, Phoenix, ’29; Chorus, “Kathleen.” “The only way to have a friend is to be one.” Emma Jane is one of our most popular girls, not only in the Senior Class, hut in the whole high school. Her friendliness and school spirit have won her a secure place in our hearts. SAM CAMPBELL WILSON Philomathean Literary Society; Baseball, ’26-’28; Football, ’27; Monogram Club, ’27-’29; Bovs’ Club; Cast, “Kath¬ leen.” “Talk to him of Jacob’s ladder and he would ask the number of steps.” Who? What? Where? Why? If you hear such questions and see no one, be sure it’s Sam; his curiosity is of the kind that killed the cat, hut he reaps a lot of satisfaction out of gaining the desired information. ELIZABETH BROWNLEE WILSON Phcenix Literary Society; Girl Reserve Club, ’28-’29; Ser- geant-at-Arms Girl Reserve Club; Cheer Leader, Girl Reserves; Glee Club, ’28-’29; Chorus, “Kathleen.” “A thing of beauty is a joy forever.” Although “Liz” has been with us only a year, she has become a very essential part of our class. “Liz” is always accommodating, possessing a hap¬ py disposition and a most attractive personality.

She has, besides, a beautiful character, and a lov¬ ing and sunny disposition. PAULINE ELLEN PARRISH Philomathean Literary Society; Chorus, “Kathleen.” “Deep brown eyes, running over with glee.” Pauline is rather quiet, but when she does speak out, what she says is sure to be worth¬ while.
