THE AU RORA Seventeen THE GRADUATES AS THEY Kmow p ONE ANOTHER AIfMA LANG Not very tall, slight, her dark brown hair neatly arranged, her gray eyes pleasant in expression, Alma's whole appearance is Winsome. She is sweet tempered and cheery and enjoys a frolie to the full. Her record as a pupil has been very good. She is popular among all the students, and esteemed by all the teachers. -Marcella Ernsrlorjf. , ANGELA MASSOTH Angela has gone through her four years of school, winning a reputation for efficiency in practical undertakings, and also, alas!-for occasional infractions of rule. She is sometimes not to be found where-she should be, 'and at other times is discovered where she should not be, but, after all, these are minor offenses. Angela takes a lively interest in all social functions, and contributes not a little to our merriment by her sense of humor. ' -Elsie Koreski. AGNES O'MALLEY .f'I n sweet music is such art, '. ' Killing care and grief of heart, A . Fall asleep or, hearing, die. Agnes is the 'living embodiment of the talentedqpianist, and she is ever ready to lend her talent for the entertainment and pleasure of others. As a member of the Dramatic Class, Agnes has shown marked ability. She handles with equal facility the light note of the bird song, andthe deep tone of the funeral dirge. S. J. A. will miss this fun-loving senior very much. - -Dorothy Ernsdorf. DOROTHY ERNSDORFF J Different, that is how one would explain her. From the top of her soft brown clip to the tip of her slender foot, she is distinctly a ray of sunshine. Dorothy has spent twelve years at S. J. A., and this likeable lass has become a general favorite. The gradu- ating class of 1924 chose her as their leader, and they are proud of their Winsome presi- dent, with her sunny smile and sweet disposition. Naturally lively, and possessing a keen appreciation of the funny side of things, she is delightful company. Her literary ability is invaluable in the preparation of the AURoRA.l' We predict great things for Dorothy. ' g Q -Agnes 0'M alley. I. ELEANOR .WEIDEMAN Eleanor is a veryqnice girl, so says every one. She is loved by the Sisters for her good behavior and studious habits. She has her fun at the right time, and thus keeps out of the scrapes that some of her incorrigible friends seem to revel in. Eleanor is a model convent school product, polite and sedate always. The Juniors regard her with admiration. They look like astronomers studying the stars when they attempt to ob- serve Eleanor's nature. Personally, I see in Eleanor many desirable qualities. She has a sincere and sympathetic character, and is always cheerful and willing to work for others. -Frances Berg. ' ELSIE KORESKI Since her entrance into the S. J. A. last September, Elsie has gone her happy-go- lucky way, getting into scrapes and out of them without even a change of facial expres- sion. She is au bright and fun-loving girl, and she is ever kind and generous to her class- mates. On her departure from school, she will carry with her the good wishes of all. -Angela M assoth.

N Eighteen THE .AURORA FRANCES BERG f Tall and well built, with dark brown eyes, a luxuriant head of brown hair, and cheeks ruddy with the color of health, Frances is one of the striking figures of the Class of '24, She is a diligent student, rarely coming to class with lessons that are not thoroughly pre- pared. No one, however, enjoys fun more than 'she does, and she is always foremost in adding pleasure to our recreation hburs. Her lively manner, quick sympathy, and strong sense of humor make her a pleasant companion. Both the Sisters and her Classmates look upon her as an ideal Senior. , -Eleanor Weidevnan. GENEVIEVE FORTIER Genevieve is dark-haired and dark-eyed. To the casual observer she seems un- usually quiet, but her classmates who know her intimately, know that she balances her hours between duty and pleasure. During class hours she is completely absorbed in her work, and during recreation hours no one enjoys sports more than she. Genevieve has planned a business career for herself, and we all know that time will find her making good. -Yvonne Duluole. GENEVIEVE LAMAY Jean is one of the sun-bursts of our class, full of fun, ever ready for a good time, and yet with a serious side which all who know her appreciate. She is tall and slender, with brown locks, which according to the dictates of fashion have fallen between the clipper's shears. Jean is very active in all school functions and organizations, and her enthusias- tic help has aided much in the successful cumulation of many of the school activities. She is popular with her classmates and with many others besides. -Ruth Howell. LEONA CHAMPOUX Leona's face usually wears a winning smile, she is neat and attractive in appearance. Her personality, as well as her appearance, is fascinating. One twinkle of her bright eyes, and you know that she has a sunny disposition and enjoys a frolic to the full. Leona always has a smile and a kind word for everyone, despite the long trudge back and forth from her home at Selah. -M onaclaire Earl. LOIS BRANDT f'She is a plain and honest lass, healthy and happy and good with that sort of beauty which comes from happiness and health. Lois is one of our representatives from Wapato. She is of medium size, brown-haired and blue-eyed. Of all her studies she prefers Eng- lish, and perhaps that is the reason why she has made such excellent progress in it. Al- though she enjoys recreation and out-door sports, she prefers to be an occupant of the quiet nooks. -Pauline Doan. MARY MAHER Opinions of Mary vary. To the occasional visitor she is a meek and lamb-like young lady who would never cause the slightest disturbance in the world, but the Class teachers know that Mary can create a laugh on occasion. As Mary excells in debate and islgifted with dramatic instinct, her teacher of Elocution has great hopes for her future. In the school plays our animated graduate is ideal. Mary possesses, indeed, many excellent traits of character: She is capable, generous, unselfish, loyal in friendship-in one word -she possesses a heart of gold. -Ursula Donovan.
