§ FREDERIC ARVIN What would we have done in Senior meetings that they might be termed business-Hke had not Frederic given us instructions for the annual? In him are com- bined the characteristics of the poet and the possi- bihties of youth. Infinite riches in a little room. Editor-in-Chief; Oratorical; Senior Play. HELEN KULL Helen has a superior gravity combined with a Teutonic build, which together make her most imposing. Nor is her profound appearance lessened in any degree by her abstract and far-away gaze while studying in the assembly room. She may best be described as having a Greek head on Yankee shoulders. Assistant Editor; Oratorical; Civics Class Council. MAXWELL EVANS Whether or not Max ' s main purpose in going through High School is to acquire a classical edu- cation, is a matter open to discussion. But however little inclination he may have toward exhaustive re- search, he has nevertheless lost no friends on that account. Whate ' er he did was done with so much ease. In him alone ' twas natural to please. Business Manager ; President H. S. A. A. ; Senior Play; Class President (3). Eighteen

HELEN WARK Wark ' s vigorous bass first broke the accustomed stillness of our vale in the month of July, 1898. After dashing through the grades and the first three years of High School she was unanimously acclaimed pres- ident of the Senior class. Since then she has taken the lead in all our activities and has served the class loyally. Class President ; Class Will ; Senior Play. RAY STUBBS Ray left the land of chanting negroes and lan- guishing maidens two years ago (to the great loss of that section) and made himself a valuable addition to our class. Immensely well-liked from the first, he be- came this year vice-president. He has always had the best interests of the class at heart. Vice-President ; Civics Class Council ; Oratorical. r :i Ai.; RAYMOND SEGO We think Raymond has made a wonderful record this year — he has ably filled the office of treasurer and has still preserved his former popularity undimin- ished. He is one of our hardest and most consistent workers. The bard must have been thinking of Ray- mond when he said : He was a gentleman on whom I built An absolute trust. Treasurer ; Senior Play. :: 1 ♦i»v- h l Seventeen

EARL V. SMITH Tall, handsome, and dashing, bul with no love for science or literature, Farmer has the most pro- found disgust for anyone who expresses, after four years in High School, any attachment for Emerson or Sir Isaac Newton. His only regret m life, he says, is that he was seventeen days too young. Assistant Business Manager; Senior Play; Ora- torical ; Treasurer (3). ROSEMARY LAWRENCE To Rosy belongs the credit for the artistic ex- cellence of The Valenian. We all feel proud of her remarkable talent and hope that the success which is due her in life may come quickly. She may have troubles of her own, but if so the rest of us never know it, for she always maintains a cheery, optimistic demeanor. Staff Artist. EARLE MAVITY One day in April, 1 899, Earle began arguing ve- hemently with the nurse, and has been repeating the performance with somebody ever since. If he doesnt turn out to be Minister to England or Chief Justice or President, it won ' t be his fault. Bid me discourse ; I will enchant thine ear. Athletic Editor; H. S. A.
