MARGARET R. BAKER, Dramatic Club, Art League, Choral Club, Oracle Staff, Athletic As- sociation. llTrue she is, as she hath proved herself True to her words, her works and her friends? Margarefs weaknesses are chocolate ice-cream and musicians of the tall, slender, graceful variety. Of course, she likes music, tooeadores it. Her ability as an artist is well known lher itOraclei' covers have proved her skillJ and as a maker of delicious fudge, she is without a rival. Did you ever see her when something appealed to her sense of humor? Such a contagious laugh! We have all had a good chance to hear it, because she is seeing something funny nearly all of the time. What would we not give to be so perfectly sincere, so delightfully impulsive? If you are looking for a care-banishing, sympathetic, true friend, behold-Margaret! MARGUERITE BECK, Dramatic Club, Athletic Association. ii ,Tis better to laugh than be sighing? She showed a far-reaching judgment when she decided to tibide-a-wee and grad- uate with the class of Nineteen ileven instead ofebut there! We are telling tales out of school. Howeier this be, llNineteen llevenl' is properly appreciative, for Mar- guerite is one of the liveliest members, and is always ready to share the contents of her well-kept notebooks with the needy. Besides this, Marguerite comes all the way from Mount Washington tquocumque estl to attend our fair school, and in the face of such loyalty the spirit of criticism is entirely subdued. 25

WALTER ABEL, Athletic Association, Art League. i'Things are not always what they seem.,, To look at Walter, you would think him a child; but my! get that boy started to talk- ing about the police department, and hell never stop! Walter doesnit generally say much in class, but what he says is to the point. In his quiet way he is always doing a good turn for some one, and has gained many friends by his thoughtfully administered llsun- shine pills. LEROY BAY, Dramatic Club, Tennis Club, Swimming Team, Art League. iiBrutus, bay not me; llll not endure it. This is rather hard on Bay, for he is really a jolly, good fellow. In fact, he is so jolly once in a while that we wonder how he comes through his studies so swimmingly. He comes near riding his willing horse to death, but gets through with very creditable marks, nevertheless. His only llrumpusl, occurs in German, and there it occurs often, but by his magnetic grin he seems to smooth even those troubled waters, while we all wonder how he does it. 24

ALEXANDER BLACKBURN, Athletic Association, Art League, Indoor Baseball. u0ft doth he strut his play upon the stage, And oft walk off againf' Black is a regular living itBill Board. He can explain the latest tricks from the Columbia, while Ruckstuhl gets them off; he can recite melodramatic bash at a 999 gait; he can explain more tricks of stage business in five minutes than Mantell could make use of in a year. Than about all, except that he clearly loves his itMathW EDGAR BRADFORD, Dramatic Club, Athletic Association, Orchestra, Art League. HA face like a benediction. ttBrad is a walking catalogue of the Public Library, especially of the childrenis room. Several times he has recommended Starkey some good one-syllahle Fableii books. But besides this achievement, Brad fiddles industriously for the orchestra; and, judg- ing by his earnest look when so engaged, he makes ttsome noise. 26
