ROSEMOND ESSER “Never sigh when you can sing, But laugh, like me, at everything.” “Posy” is another giggler among us. Most of the students who sit near her are afraid to study for fear that she will do something which they will miss. LEONARD DREXLER “Science surpasses the old miracles of mythology.” Leonard’s interest falls to that of science. He is especially fond of electricity. He spends most of his spare time working with electricity. LOUELLA ELSASS “She came and went.” We feel more like saying “hello” than “good-bye” to Louella. We aren’t so very well acquainted with her yet, but we like her smile. MELVIN ELSASS “If you don’t know—guess.” “Jiggers” is interested in baseball. He does not care for study, but most of us do not either so he is not an exception. CAROLINE ELSHOFF “Dear, simple maid.’’ New Knoxville seems to like us fine. We like them,, too, for the kind of students that they send up here. LORENA FEIL “With nature so sweet.” Lorena likes to tell jokes so she usually was chosen to give them in our Civics programs. Needless to say, we enjoyed them very much.

MABEL COIL “With hair of raven hue.” Mabel is one of our most accom¬ plished gigglers. Because of her ami¬ able and happy disposition she is a general favorite, both of the teachers and students. MILDRED CORNELL “Milly” is a very quiet girl in school. She does not have much to say, but when she does say something it has weight. HELEN CRAFT Helen is constantly worried about her lessons,, as she never has them! She can’t fool us—if she doesn’t know them why can she always recite? ROY CRAFT “A man’s a man for a’ that.” “Peck” is another member of the class of ’22 who is good-natured and always smiling. Energy is his middle name—when it comes to work for the annual. MARGARET DARST “O’er her fair face sprinkled free, Is a roguish tracery.” Margaret is a friend to all, and never swerves from the path of right. She’s studious yet-she loves a joke; and does her tasks with all her might. LYDIA DELONG “How many saucy airs we meet” “Lydie” hails from the wilds of the north. Because of her bright, sunny nature she has won a host of friends.

MABEL FRISCHE “A quiet, unassuming, maid.” Mabel is one who does not believe in utward actions. Her sweet and i cnt ' c—we ' 1 , wards cannot express t i r appreciation of her. ANNA RUTH GEBHART “C ur hearts, our hopes, are all with thee.’’ Precious things are not always put rp in small packages. Anna Ruth has an eut ' ook on life which is all her own. We expect great things from her in the future as an alto singer. ELOISE HAMILTON “A maiden young and fair.” Eloise does not like to be called names, such as Skeeters” for in¬ stance, so we never say it. SYLVIA HOOPINGARNER “In Home Economics she excels.” A shy and timid girl is Sylvia, but that docs not keep us from liking her. She has a cheerful “hello” for every¬ one. MARY HOLTKAMP “Life’s too short to waste.” Mary hails from New Knoxville. She has a cheery smile for everyone she meets. Here’s hoping she may be as successful in her future life as she is in school. GLADYS HASTINGS “She cannot count her friends.” We say Gladys and Lucile like We say “bread and butter” or “cup and saucer.” They are always seen to¬ gether having a good time.
