Still we gazed, and still our wonder grew, That such a small head could contain all she knew. Poet of the Retrospect.” We scarcely know what she excels in because everything attempted by her she completes with equal success. N’o one would think she was a suffragette until you listen to her arguments in Civics. She is also inclined toward the art of the rytlunatic meter. WILHELM PITTHAN I dare do all that may become a man.’ Mill has a way all his own of getting his lessons. Sometimes he gets them and sometimes he doesn’t, but he has pulled thru just the same. One noticablc thing about Wilhelm is his feet. They have a very prominent place in his appearance. “Modest and shy as a nun is she.” Xetta is ine of the prettiest and sweetest girls in our class.

EARL MARTAIN LLEWENA MARSH “My days are spent in arguments My nights in planning them.” Treasurer of the Senior Class. Boy’s Glee Club. He i' a friend of everybody, but he doesn’t agree with any of his friends on any subject. We’re sure Jim has more brains than he uses in arguments. His hearty laughs would drive the blues away from anyone. DOROTHY MILLIETTE “When she speaks the world laughs.” Dot is another live wire of our class. She loves a good time, and seems to live for them. She is very musical and will no doubt spend her future days as a pianist for some great musical comedy. Every-is happy when Dorothy is around. ‘‘Her mannerisms make her attractive.” Girl’s Glee Club. “Green Stockings.” Llewena is another girl who came from Bucklatid this year to complete her course with us. She is one of the funniest girls you ever did hear talk. She surely has entered into the high school spirit, and her set ways of doing things have made her the center of attraction •oftentimes. LATTIE OSBORN O, Sleep it is a blessed thing. Beloved from pole to pole.” 1 his lad is known for never making a sound. He has been with us for four years but we have scarcely heard of him.
