A good many of the honors of our class have gone to Ralph, but he de- serves them. He never does anything ac- cording to a set rule but has a distinct way of his own for doing everything. His persistence and ability are sure to bring him success whatever he under- takes — be it running for President or what-not. RUTH HANSEN Asheville, N. C.

Her wit and originality have helped us through many an other- wise dull recitation. Although usually full of fun, Ruth can be serious when the occasion demands it. We wish her all kinds of success, and are sure that she will make good. Page 25
