EDWIN H. BERGMEIER, Editor of the ANNUAL; Assistant Business Manager of the Oracle; Athletic Association; Art League; Dramatic Club. Thereis that everlasting Editor again! Rest, O sufferers; he will not disturb you any more. Bergy worked hard on this book, even at the risk of becommg lean. His achievements have won for him the title of the Other Wise Man, and, indeed, he is always sorry to tell of the heights to Which he has risen for fear of offendlng the other chaps and making them feel sad. Bergy is real jolly, at least When he trles to be, and thatis pretty often. With a sort of Damon and Pythias partnershlp a play was evolved which shows that Bergy has an insight into life as it is. With much gratitude for his untiring efforts to make this ANNUAL a success, and the recollection of his jolly good-fellowship, we pass on to the next. J. LOUIS MOTZ, Business Manager of the ANNUAL; Art League; Orchestra; Dramatic Club; Tennis Club. You hear a Whirr and a buzz and see a blaze of color. You feel alarmed until some bystander in a nonchaiant way remarks, gThat was Motz, alias Lux, Business Manager of the ANNUAL. Then you immediately know that he is sweeping down upon some unfortunate to see if he has had his picture taken. We often wonder how such a little fellow as Louis can make so much noise, but you see the same is the case with a cannon ball. Motz is a hustler from the word go. Witness this book, the regiglt of his efforts. Louisis business push will land him on the top in the future, to e sure. 22

DOROTHY ANDERSON, Vice-President, Class of '12; Representative of the Art League; ANNUAL Staff; Dramatic Club; Athletic Association. liHer voice was like the voice the stars Had when they sang together. Dorothy is as sweet as is her name! In the two brief years she has been with us Dorothy has risen high in our ranks. We had a difficult time deciding whether she should be Vice-President 01' Secretary of the Class. But we could not allow her to be both. See above for index of the arduous duties she has performed. And in her school work-well, she is certainly iismart, but because of this she is by no means uninteresting. You should hear and see Dorothy tell a joke: her whole face expresses it. And, as for wisdom, Diogenes certainly would have found a boon companion in er. ALMA SAUER, Secretary, Class of 12; Assistant Editor of the Oracle; ANNUAL Staff; Athletic Association; Dramatic Club; Art League. iiShe needs no other rosary, Whose life is strung with beads of loving thought? Every day is a pearl upon her rosary. In all the school there is no other to whom one would so quickly turn in trouble, nor could anyone give such help and sympathy. Alma's voice, ever soft, gentle and low, has not only won her perfects in elo- cution, but it has encouraged many a comrade, and her smile is a fitting complement to her motto, Cheer up. As Assistant Editor of the Oracle, her interesting articles have enlivened many of its pages and have always and in every way reflected her cheerful philosophy. 21

ALVINA AUFDERHEIDE, Dramatic Club; Athletic Association; Art League. A good cook is the noblest work of God. Behold Alvina in cap and apron preparing a meal lit for the gods. Indeed, her talent runs in that line. Her doughnuts and cream puffs fairly melt in onels mouth. We, who have tasted them, cheerfully testify to their merits. You may think that she is as sober as a judge, but you should see her at the back lunch table. She is then the gayest of the bunch. Spanish is her favorite study. Some day, Alvina, you will receive your reward. We wonder who it will be? HELEN E. BARTON, Art League; Dramatic Club. 'Tis better to laugh than to be staking. The Domestic Science Class has one bright spot and that is Helen. She polishes her pots and pans till they shine. Her gods seem to be the Gold Dust Twins. Her partner sits back and watches the entire performance when Helen rolls up her sleeves and goes to work. We are sure this is a good sign. I wonder who that mysterious unknown is, that the girls tease her about. Of course, Helen, this is none of our business, but girls will be girls and we are interested. However, if Helen makes everything in the home shine like her pots and pans, she herself will surely 'ishine. 23
