THE CARNET AND WHITE 21 Albert N. Rotunno Industrial Scientific The secret of success is constancy of purpose. Albert is one of our quiet commuters from West Grove.

There is quite a difference between the Peg with the shorn locks of last year and the Peggy now rushing around the halls.

Ed's one of our howling ’, big athletes. He’s tall, blonde, and ever witty. I don't believe anyone ever saw Bud’s face straight, unless perhaps when he's pretending he didn't throw the chalk in B3. The world is full of sober men. but it’s boys like you. Bud. that keeps the rest o' the world running. Though Bud says he’s undecided as to his future, we know his sunny nature will help him succeed.

Here’s a sure cure for the blues—our “Liz . She always has something clever to say to make you laugh when you feel down hearted. ’’Liz” can be quite serious, but most of the time she is ready with a jolly remark. Everyone likes her. and she has a host of friends. She is undecided about the future, but good luck. Lib. if Hymen should control your future. Emma J.

Girls' Chorus IV: Mixed Chorus IV: Lieutenant IV: Type- writing Certificate III: Perfect Attendance III, IV: Typewriting Medal IV. Emma is another one of our quiet, brown-eyed maidens. But she certainly can make us all sit up and take notice, especi- ally when she reads her shorthand notes. We know Emma is going to be “Somebody's Stenog immediately after she graduates, and she will brighten the office with her cheery and pleasant smile. We feel sure that Emma will always be success- ful in whatsoever she undertakes. Best wishes for the future. Emma. Mildred Ellen Robb Commercial Quiet, modest and unassuming. Typewriting Certificate III. Mildred is one of our shy and modest maidens who hail from Marshallton. She is well-liked by everyone for her good nature, and we wish her the best of success when she takes up a business position next year. Walter Ross Scientific Honor lies in honest toil. Football II. IV: Baseball III. IV: Monitor IV. We seldom hear from Walter because he is quiet and unassum- ing. and only his modesty has prevented him from being a shin- ing light in our class. However, his shy. but pleasing, manner has gained for him a wide circle of friends. Walter is undecided about his future.
