We envied him because of his careless, carefree manner. Regard¬ less of troublesome school duties, his joviality persisted. DAXIIH. CHE REIN “ ' neiids, Romans, Countrymen, lend )ne your ears. B. H. S. : A. A., 3b-4b; Boys’ Club, 3b-4b. Never tardy. No demerits. Dan could certainly use an audience from time to time.

Never tardy. They say that all women are everlasting talkers. Helen has proven to us that there are exceptions to every rule. As a sym¬ pathetic listener to all, she has gained a strong following.
