ROSEBUD 25 that he ranks high in the class. He is very short, but he can sure make his legs fly in baseball. Carl Getts. Carl’s ever ‘‘beaming headlight and gentle voice’’ when seen and heard nakes everybody stand up and take notice Carl’s spirit is always high and is always cheerful tho’ all others are in tears. Even if Carl does have red hair, he has had quite a number of difficult struggles with Cupid and broken more than one girl’s heart. Ie has held a prominent place in society as well as in class. His voice and rare talent as an actor has secured for him, a lead- ing part in all musicals and programs. Gladys Beard. ‘“Nip,” our cheerful classmate is every busy and alert. Well did she ex- press herself (unintentionally, too) in these words (in Physiology IV) ‘‘yes, I too, was tongue-tied, and when they cut it they cut it too far.” And so they must have because as soon as the door opens we hear her gentle voice. She is everybody’s girl and willingly extends her help to all in need. She is full of business as well as pleasure and does well all work before her. Loa Wines. Loa is an innocent sort of girl, who gave up hfe in the country to seek knowledge in the Waterloo High. She is quite a ‘‘shark’’ in history. This was proven by the fact that Mr. Moudy always intrusts his famous Junior class to her when he is gone. She is an excellent student and is always willing to work for anybody who feels her need. Loa is preparing to hold high a birch gad and rule a nice school full of sweet, pretty, dimpled darlings and we’re sure she will be successful. Martha Wines . Martha is one of the most cheerful members of the Senior Class and is very seldom seen with a frown on her face. Indeed when something very pro- voking happens, such as spilling a bottle of ink over herself and books, anyone else would have ground their teeth and thought inexpressible things, but Martha simply says: ‘‘Oh, my soles and uppers,” and very calmly sets to work to clean it up. She is a good student and always takes a prominent part in all social functions. We expect great things of Martha and indeed we don’t know how we could get along without her.

24 ROSEBUD Joe Bowman ‘‘Shakey’’ has proven himself a most faithful member of the class of 716. Joe has filled a prominent place in the society programs and High School chorus. His quiet disposition and manly ways have won for him scores of friends, especially girls. And let us not forget to mention his excellency as a musician. His excellent manner in which he manages the piano and violin has brought him in contact with many people. Florence Strow ‘Blo,’ as she is sometimes called, is necessary to the maintenance of the class spirit. She is a jolly companion and has been a help not only to the class as a whole, but she has hepled her classmates individually. She has well been known as a geometry and Latin shark. Her modesty and gentle disposition have made her the mark of admiration, yet she has so successfully struggled with Cupid that she has adopted as her motto, ‘‘No Wedding Bells For Me.’’ Florence is intending to be a schoo] teacher and surely we expect her to be successful. Vera Newcomer Vera began her existence on a farm north of Waterloo and entered Waterloo School in the fifth grade. During her High School hfe, she has served her class loyally, and has been very prominent in the Ciceronian So- ciety. In fact, it would be almost impossible for the Ciceronians to give her up. She is an earnest worker, both in class affairs and society work, and 1s always ready for a good time. Surely her motto should be: ‘‘ Work While You Work, and Play While You Play.’’ Her favorite occupation is taking snap- shots of her friends, and then presenting them to the Business Manager, who in turn has them printed in the ‘‘Rosebud.’’ She is an excellent elocutionist and has frequently entertained the school with choice readings. Ioa Zonker. loa comes from Corunna but most of her time is spent among her Water- loo friends. She is an earnest advocate of Woman Suffrage, and won in two eertests for essay writing on that subject, one from tke state and one from the High School. loa is a steady and faithful member of her class and has studied hard during her four years here. That she has won a place of merit among her classmates is shown in her election by the class to be Hditor-in-Chief of the Rosebud. The character of work in the annual shows that this honor was bestowed upon the right person. The kind of work she does can best be described by a look at the Rosebud. It speaks for itself. Le Roy Campbell. “Shorty,” or our little shrimp, is decidedly O. K. His spare moments are either spent in teasing or giving gentle ‘‘love” pats. His great success in basket-ball and other athletics insures for him a cozy spot in the dark corner of every senior girl’s heart. He has spent his preceeding three years in the Butler High School, and we seniors consider ourselves fortunate in welcoming him to our class where he has so diligently and cheerfully managed his work

26 ROSEBUD The Cruel Tale of Sir Frederick Frederick was a bold young knight Of the Order of the Press, He was tall and dark complexioned, And very fond of dress. One night by chance he met her, The maiden of his dreams, He took her home that evening, And now she happy seems. One night soon after New Year’s Eve, Our hero called upon our heroine ; And when it came time to leave, These words she spake in all serene: ‘‘This year is one of many, Tis leap year as you know: And now, my darling duckling, Iam going to propose. ‘You are the young man of my dreams, And since we first have met, The feeling that came o’er me, Is one I can’t forget.” Up spoke our noble hero, In language broad and plain, ‘ Please forget it, this cannot be so: My edueation’s just begun, my fortune yet to gain. Altho I love you dearly, And you’ve many winning ways; I’m busted, try some other guy, You still have three hundred sixty days.’’ He turned and went. to leave her, But she grasped his arm and screamed: ‘“‘Don’t go, my noble hero, The man of whom I dreamed.” But since many years have passed, The two have never each other dispatched ; She lives an old maid in a cottage, And all his life he has batched. A SENIOR.
