Katharine Stackhouse “Under her face, calm as summer skies, The little imp of mischief lies.” Kasey and her Ford are very fa- miliar to everyone. They have two characteristics in common—they are never still and they both afford amusement. Anyone needing a water carrier in the future may find an ex- cellent one in Kasey. They used great foresight in selecting her as Maid Dorothy in the play for she is characterizing the part to perfection. Baldwin will certainly be fortunate next year. Edith Turner “We love her for her own true worth. Edie is our star commercial stu- dent. She surely can make that type- writer talk. Someone will gain a prize when Edith is engaged as “Somebody’s Stenog.” But stenog- raphic work isn’t Edie’s only spe- cialty. As a French student—she shines. In addition to all this, Edie’s a peach to have around. Marjorie Reynold Her time is forever; everywhere her place.” Words cannot do cute old Marge justice—you must know her to dis- cover the wealth of virtues she pos- sesses. People such as Marge are scarce, for it is hard to find one per- son holding, in her small realm, the glories of scholarship, leadership, a good all-round sport, and a disposi- tion which wins and holds untold numbers of friends, both young and old. Alice Woods “When once the young heart of a maiden is stolen, the maiden her- self will steal after it soon.” A” has been so faithful and good natured in all her work! Her pri- mary accomplishment is preparing and serving banquets, or, in fact, anything in the line of eats. There are times of course when Allie gets peeved but you just need to kid her along for a few minutes and she’s just as merry as ever.

Ruth Palliser “A quiet lass, there are but few Who know the treasure hid in you.” Ruth is our quiet student. She is never idle—yet she always has time to smile and lend a helping hand. She has been our classmate four years, yet we had to go to Washing- ton before we really learned to know her. Someone (?) will get a real wife, for she is an accomplished cook. Viola Proudfoot ‘‘To those who know her not, no words can paint; And those who know her, know all words are faint.” Pi is an artist in more than one sense of the word. She is blessed with the talent of drawing and paint- ing. Her work in the Phoenician is merely a suggestion of what she really can do, for the lack of space deprived her of displaying her excel- lent work. Not only does she pos- sess artistic but also athletic and so- cial talents and a most attractive personality. Alma Reynolds “Write me as one who loves his fel- low-men.” We feel that this expresses Alma exactly. Although she has just been with us this year, she has gained many friends throughout the school through her jollity and good humor. We know she will have just as many after she leaves us, for she is one who makes friends wherever she goes. Elizabeth Sloan O darkly, deeply, beautifully blue.” A glance at her sparkling eyes and ever-present smile makes you suspect that behind them lies a heap of fun. One Ynoment with her, and your sus- picions are confirmed, for she is all mirth. Honey almost missed the trip to Washington, for her old age was telling on her in the form of rheuma- tism, but—trust Hun! She went.

Edwin Williams “Humor and seriousness both com- bined.” Eddie frequently has very little to say, but we attribute this to the fact that he probably spends most of his energy trying to get to school on time. We all know Edwin to be a dandy fellow and hate to see him leave us. Eddie hasn’t as yet an- nounced his ambition, but we have a premonition that we’ll hear of him in the future. Seymour Callet “Still we gazed and still our wonder grew, That one small head would hold the words he knew.” Seymour has great histrionic ability. Evidence of this is his work in our various school plays. He has also talent in arguing and debating, for he gave a convincing speech in our class debate and has taken an active part in our frequent class discussions. Therefore, we Seniors have rightly appointed “Sey” as our class philosopher.
