EMILY ARNOLD Art League, Athletic Association. Emily, so quiet, demure and sweet, With a t'oic'e .w tranquil and 10m; Of all the girls I chmzre to meet Shek- the dearrst one I Imam In describing Emily one can say she is simple, demure and sweet. She is always the same and ready to greet all with a smile. Emily says that her only trial in school is Latin, but she is not the kind to give up. Her courage failed, however, in the second half year, when she was allowed to drop Cicero and take up Astronomy. Emily has taken great interest in this study and some may think she will be a famous star gazer, but this is not her greatest ambition. She intends to go to a Western college next year and later become a domestic science teacher, but who knows? She would certainly make a model home maker. There is another thing that interests Emily-is it possible that she is a suffrag'ette? Re- member she is from Colorado. We wish her the greatest success. ANNA BACKUS Art League. FUN of jollity and fun. Anna is one of our little girls. She is little. but, oh. my! the strength of her right arm. This is shown in Domestic Science, where she vigorously beats batters and doughs. She is an irrepressible giggler, and can smile even When an English Exam is approaching, which speaks for itself. Is she talkative? Oh, 110! She is quiet sometimes, but that is only when someone else is talking. Anna is always in for a good time, and is usually found where the mast fun is going on. We wish you, Anna, all the success in the world. 29

HARRY SCHAFER Editor of The ANNUAL, Oracle Staff, Football Team. Yes, Harry edited this book, and wrote for the school paper, and played hue football, and all that, but this little sketch has a greater object than to tell of such ordinary things. Harry has a hat; we all have hats, but Harryis hat is different. W hen he was in the lifth reader of school, ambition ran riot in Harry;' he quit school and started to selling newspapers. He wore a mere cap, then, but the cap soon became too small, so he got a job as messenger boy. After six months of that good exercise, he moved his cap one peg farther; he sold magazines 011 the trains and traveled all around. Then Harry went backwards a little ; he worked in factories and machine shops, and then he scored. He started to study; he Studied shorthand; he moved his hat ahead. He was Matted now; he entered the employ of the Enquirer. He made good. N 0w, here comes that nervous hat again. He hung his hat up in our halls at Woodward. He made good; he was a social favorite, a gentleman with the horn polish. We have honored him, and nOW'he leaves us. His hat is in the Chicago University, and a well-filled hat it is. JAMES L. MOCH Business Manager of The ANNUAL, Art League, Oracle Staff, Athletic Association. HSure you will give us an ad. Why, you know Who I am? Iim Jimmy, the same party who put store cheese in the macaroni, which is served in our lunch room. This is only part of the conversation used by Moch in landing another twenty-dollar advertisement for the Annual. If you doubt that this rosy-cheeked lad could be a. successful business manager yodre mistaken. Just glance over, at the back of this book, the many ads he has landed, and youill agree that Jim will have a successful business career, The only thing that troubles Moch is the fair sex. After defying them for nearly three years. he has capitulatecl, and new many fellows are clamoring for their lost fair friends. But Moch is not such a bad fellow, after all. Next to his dinner, he loves fun. and he surely has enough of it. Too bad that graduation is coming soou, for we surely will miss you, old boy. 28
