CHARLOTTE KIMBALL CShi-Shih Swarthmore Therefs nane sae bonnyj few sae guid In a' King George dominion Surely few have earned the title All-round girl more justly than our Charlotte. Her smile from behind the lunch counter each day bears witness to her good nature, her ability to get things done is in evidence whenever and wherever her services are enlisted. An excellent horse-woman, a hockey enthusiast, a musician of more than local fame, actress, and last but not least, a mainstay of the Honor Roll-All these is Charlotte. Do you wonder we are proud of such a Versatile classmate?

Y GEORGE WILTON JENNESS Northeastern MOM' flaitery welll keep for some other, Him only it's justice to praise George Jenness, one of our new members, is so well known now that an introduction at this time seems superfluous. Be assured his friendship has been worth cultivating. He understands how to take a task, no matter what its kind, and accomplish it quietly and cer- tainly,-in fact, with an air of real enjoyment.

He is one of our Hpremier' students and passes his courses in a way which delights the faculty. Above all, Henry is a perfect gentleman as well as a conscientious student. VVe wish that he could have spent more than a year with us, but we are grateful to Q. H. S. for sending us a fellow like Henry. VIRGINIA LOUISE HEALY tGinnyJ Mt. Holyoke Is she not passing fair?'

GOVVAN Harvard Books were his passion and his delight Even in sixth-class days. we admired John's working vocabulary. Perhaps its wealth helps him to the honor roll, where his name appears quite often. John has shown that he can rise on any Auspicious occasion not only in class dramatics but also in managing athletic teams, and in solving the knottiest problems in mathematics. Who else but our John could carry an eight-subject curriculum and be absolutely dependable at all times?

Although she has been here but a year, she already has electrified our English classes. She came to us from Stetson I-Iighg but then she is so nice, we soon forgave her that. Dame Rumor has it that she finds B. U. very attractive for certain reasons, so we hope to find her a freshman at P. A. L. next year. Girls' Club, lg Glee Club, 1.

Uackl A man of such a genial mood Who is this young man so full of quiet dignity that even when he was a prep, people mistook him for a precocious senior? It is Jack Kelley, the possessor of many worthy distinctions. Best of all these, perhaps, is his remarkable mastery of the art of minding his own business. Partly, no doubt as a reward of this rare virtue, Jack has received the approbation of all of his classmates. lYhen we have necd of a person to run our dances, to further our causes, or to bolster up school spirit, it is to .lack that we tum. In short, Jack is a boy whose friendship is worth having-a fellow's friend. Football, 4, 3, 2, Orchestra, 5, 4, 3, 1, Glee Club, 3, 2, Dance Committee, 2, 1, Play Committee, 2. Q .

School of Art A maiden fair to see As a follower of the Muses, Ruth may be seen almost any day showing her fellow class-mates how to succeed in the Terpsichorean art, or in any other pursuits sacred to the Nine. So you may be sure that the effects on Thayer of her short sojourn have all been beneficial. Moreover, we may say that Ruth knows whereof she speaks, and it is further rumored that she does not always speak of all she knows. Girls' C lub, 1.
