By-uord, ' -By Htck. Is it the little things that count in life? Surely the best goods are done up in small packages. Eve is certainly ample proof of these things. Xo one has ever seen her mad ; she is full of wit and humor and always greets you with a smile. ■ ' Eve has a great affinity for studying and she has shown her ability along this line by getting several prizes. She is considered one of the bright- est in our class, and never goes to class without knowing her lesson perfectly. She does not believe in bluffing and has never acquired this art in which some of the other members of her class excel. The only crime which she has been known to commit is to skip class when the rest do so. Altho she has a great affinity for books and studying. Eve always has time to accept the attentions of the boys. She always takes a prominent part in all activities of our class and school — especially in Literary Society and Basket-ball. She is a fond admirer of the opposite se.x and on account of her winning personality, many have learned to love her. Altho she is gentle, meek and mild, her pretty red cheeks, laughing eyes and brown hair have won for her a host of admiring friends. We prophecy for this modest maiden, success in all her future activities. ' Eve ' aluays br ' ujht and cheery , li ith helpful hand for all ivho ' re iveary. Page Tiventy-five

DALLAS C. BAER Sand Patch, Pa. Classical. S. U. Academy, ' 17; Track Team (1); Philo: Y. M. C. A. Quartet; Deputation Team; Business Manager Lanthorn {? ): Advertising Manager; Ministry. By-uord, Aly Gosh ! Bruin, M ' oof. Don ' t be frightened ! He isn ' t dangerous. This memlser of the Susque- hanna University Circus was sent to us from the wilds of Somerset County four years ago when he was a mere cub. Since that time he has won the ap- plause of the crowds by his cjueer antics. He is very playful, being especiall}- fond of practical jokes. He is never in a hurry, as can be easily seen when he is taken out on the campus for his daily exercise. He is always late to class (when he goes) and never bothers his head about studying, depending en- tirely on animal instinct to outwit the Professors. He is a very accomp- lished Baer, being able among other things, to ride a horse in several different languages. He, like most bears, is a great smasher of things in general. He never misses an opportunity to break dishes etc., but his greatest specialty is breaking hearts ; Baer hugs being nearly always fatal. This young man aspires to become a brilliant, pupil orator, and, because of his good mixing qualities, capable leadership and splendid character we expect great things from him. To be great . is to be misuudfrstood. Page Tivettty-four

STERLING R. DECKER Montgunier}- I ' a. ( leneral Science Bond Key S. L ' . Academy 16; Class Secretary ( 1 ) ; Class Artist (2) ; Advertising Mana- ger Lanthorn ( .i ) ; Y. M. C. A.; Philo ; b ' urthnr Study. By-ivonl, The Diuc ou Say. ' Crook. This long connected piece of humanity entered S. U. vhen but a wee small boy and now we find him one of the largest and most important men of our class. He hails from the prosperous city of Montgomery which is noted for it ' s hunters. Deck especially is a distinguished hunter of the Bunny, while the ' Lieut. also seems to be a lover of the sport. While rooming in Sleepy Hollow he acquired the name of ' ' Crook but we must say he is a clean-cut young man and of a character which his name implies. He has always been faithful and diligent but since studying Psy- chology he has become a genius. Morning, noon and night you y find him taking Campus or some- where near Seibert Hall whistling In my little birch canoe. One dark and lonesome night he met with a terrible accident, he fell out of his little canoe and it was hard paddling to Shickillemy the next day. He has a reputation of being a very big eater, it is nothing for him to eat several bunches of bananas and t i tpiarts cjf ice cream before going to bed at night and } ' et he can sleep. We are indeed glad to have such a brilliant young man in our class. He spent most of his vacation last simimer at Plattsburg Training Camp and is novi- one of our Sergeants in the S. A. T. C. We expect great work of him someday in the military line as he is a straight, upright, young soldier. .Ks a business man he is hard to beat for when he undertakes a proposi- tion he is sure to succeed. As a result he was chosen Advertising Manager of the Lanthorn. We prophecy a great future for this young n ' in. .si lion 11 to my tusk To stiiily rt.f in ' rc : But I can ' t do a singh- thiiuj hxi ' tpt to think of hir. Page Ti:enty-s ' ix
