Yet never take him literally, he is half the time in earnest. Bob is quite a ladies' man. His loves ?-not one but many. Dance? Why he is right at home. We who have gone through school with Bob know that underneath his nonsense is good sense. He is a friend worth having and when he makes up his mind to do a thing he sees it through. School would have been very dull at times without Bob and we ought to pass the hat for the amusement he has furnished us.

HERE is one of the quiet members of '21, Though Mary is rather silent there would be a noticeable loss to her classmates if she were not there. Everyone who has come in contact with her has felt her spirit of good-fellowship and a few more favored ones who have really gotten to know her, have found a friend indeed.

In fact she has about decided to look up all her life. In Basketball and in school work, too, she has made a record for herself. We must confess that Sometimes when we look at her books and papers we are puzzled, for scribbled everywhere are ELE'S and W 8a J and we know not whether she is reviewing her alphabet or originating some new equation in Physics-you tell us, Buster.
