GRACE DODSON To hose who talk and talk. This proverb should appeal; The steam that blows the whistle. Never turns the wheel.” Grace has had some real experience in teach- ing. She poses as a primary teacher, but her atten- tion is not confined to first grade pupils. She has been ciuite successful in teaching the “first lesson to pupils of a more advanced age. She has a liberal supply of genuine Irisli wit and is a famous talker. She is destined to enjoy a brilliant social career, and after generations will know her as the greatest flirt of her age. ETHEL GRIFFIN I should just like to see the man I'd promise to love, honor, and obey, especially the latter. Ethel is Treasurer of the Senior Class. We early singled her out as one of the few people that can be trusted with large sums of money. Ethel is a scientist by natural inclination, and her greatest aptitude is for chemistry. She is never so happy as when she is concocting queer mixtures in the chemical laboratory. Some da y she will make an entirely new combination of chemicals that will shake the world to its foundations and cause her to soar skywards to a place among the immortals. 83

MABEL DAVIS “Does not Jet her hooks in eriere with having a good time. Mabel would be a good student—if she would study. Perhaps she would study if the boys would only leave her alone. But they will keep coming and she is far too kind hearted to hurt their feelings. Mabel has marked business ability, as has been demonstrated on several occasions. When Eliza- beth'-begins her career as a prima donna, she will probably make Mabel her business manager. ELIZABETH DEANE “I always work—my teachers. ” There is just one thing that keeps Elizabeth off the stage—her mother. She has all the qualifica- tions of a Prima Donna. She likes to sing, as any- one who works in the biological laboratory during the first hour in the morning will testify. If she fails to realize her ambition to go on the stage, we predict for her a great social future in Choctaw County. 32

LEILA HAMPTON She’s not as timid and bashful as she looks. Leila has a soft voice and modest, retiring ways. Yet we suspect that under this demure manner she hides a will that is altogether her own. for she has been known to stand like the Rock of Gibralter in matters that were of moment to her. Leila combines an artistic temperament with shrewd foresight in practical affairs. We predict that she will turn her talents to financial account, and be- come known as the richest musician in America. RUDOLPH HELBACH ’TVs glorious to have a giant’s strength, but nobler to use it like a man. Rudolph is President—not of the United States— but of the Senior Class. The responsibilities of this office naturally weighs somewhat heavily upon him; but he has berne up bravely and has done his duty to the letter, even in the matter of pre- serving order in class meetings. Rudolph will prob- ably join the army, where his ability as a runner will make him invaluable in a retreat. 34
