Alpha M. Pierson There ' s nothing hard about getting an honor book or two, now and then. I have a little formula, which I worked out in my Freshman year, that has aided me greatly in my work. It is this: To seven nights ' study every week, add a goodly portion of serious expression. Mix well and dilute with a two to one portion of Sanskrit, Analytical Geom- etry, and German. To this add one grey sweater and five eight o ' clock classes, and take as prescribed by Shakespeare in Wheth- er You Like It or Not . It has not failed so far. Mabel E. Eby, k a My aim in life is to be serious. My great- est ambition is to be able to convince my friv- olous schoolmates of the fact that college consists of more than rah-rahing, and danc- ing, and as vice president of the Senior Class I have done my best. As a member of the German Club, and as recipient of the Presi- dent ' s Honor Book for Foreign Languages, I feel it my duty to here quote a few lines from Goethe concerning my outlook on this matter: Arbeit fur die Nacht Kommt .

Jesse E. Spielman, Quill Club There ' s a little song called My Hero ' ' which always has appealed to me, ever since the article came out in the Denver Post telling how I rescued a girl from the terribly incon- venient death of drowning in ice cold water. But I can do other things than merely being the knight to ladies in distress. When I took the part of the hero in The Romancers I think I proved indisputably that engineering is not the only field in which I am proficient. Agnes C. Johnson, II B I do not intend to be an ordinary sort of person, though I haven ' t quite decided what line of work is best suited to my temperament. Just after I became a member of Quill Club I thought surely I would enter the literary field ; then I decided to be a famous psy- chologist; and now I think I ' ll go back to my original intention of being a librarian, just like Dr. Hebard.

James L. Laughlin, A T 12 I feel more proud of my athletic record than of anything else I ' ve done s nee I ' ve been in the University. No, they didn ' t make me captain of the team, but one time in the class basketball series I really did make a basket. Also I wen two of the President ' s Honor Books, and Mary — she ' s an awfully nice girl, you know. She likes to hear me play the cornet and she says I look fine in my band uniform. Ethel E. Pfeiffer, a a a My college career has been a busy cne indeed. For four long years I have been a pillar of the Y. W. C. A., and I am sure the Home Economics Department will go far to find a student who is as efficient and cap- able as I. Last year a: the only girl on the A. S. U. W. Committee and as Secretary of the same, I proved the saying, The pen is stronger than the swerd , for I let the men do the talking and then wrote down what suited me best. Most people don ' t know it, but I ' m quite a musician, and my favorite scng is, Blest Be the Tie that Binds .
