She is so tiny that you can't always see her. but you usually know she’s around. Middy plans to devote her time to kindergarten work. We think it will be hard to distinguish between teacher and pupils. We are awfully sorry Grandma had to sit in a draft about four days before the Senior Play and get sick!

If there is any extra work to be done, from playing a dramatic role to typing, we ask Ruth and are certain of a cheery ”1 will.” GRACE JOLINE Still Waters ’Twas kin' o' kingdom come to look On sech a blessed creature A dogrose blushin' to a brook Ain’t modester or sweeter.” Junior Prom Decoration Committee (3); Second Team Basketball (4); French Club (4); Glee Club (I); Christmas Play (4); Class Hockey Team (3); Library Service (3-4).

STEPHEN LIANA Pack Up Your Troubles ’’A little man from a little town. Orchestra (1-2); Class Track (3); Class Baseball (1); Varsity Track (2). What Steve lacks in size, he makes up in ambition and capacity for hard work.
