Miss Constance Gilbert, one Of my fellow
historians. is q young lady who is not SO
young as she looks, but who acts younger
than she Ia. One often secs her coming
into No. 10 from some recitation room be-
fore the recitation is half over, and pro-
ceeding to her seat with rather sheepish
expression. At recess she Is greeted with
chorus of "What's the matter, Conf
What did you get sent out of recitation
for2" And in that lofty way of her Con-
ME replies: 30, nothing. I just know
my lesson to well too recite it." During the
sixth hour No. 10 is just alive with muir
Yet she always looks injured If accused of
having anything to do in producing them.
She has very contagious laugh-one OF
her giggles having the power of setting
whole room laughing. In our third class
year Miss Gilbert devised scheme where
by she did not have tot take her books home
to study English. On the way from No. z
to No. 5, while waiting for the lines from
the three rooms to pass, she would study
her lesson and then at recitation make up
by ssnerve" what she failed to get by study.
Thus one day she was called upon to give
list of Hswthorne's works, and, boldly
rising, told the astonished teacher that
among them Is one called "Moses is an Old
Man." When told that she was probably
! trying to say chooses From an Old Manse"
she. defended herself by saying that from
what she knew about him Noses was an old
man.
Force of contrast now suggests to me,
Mics Anna Krauss, a pretty blonde, pos.
| sessing many of Miss Eagan's virtues and
none of her faults. Anna possesses con-
siderable talent, both musical and elocu-
tionary, having assisted at several enter
| tainments given for charitable purposes,
and if she continues in the way she has
! begun, she may some day riva! Mary
| Anderson or Patti. She is very dainty,
her favo1ite sauce being mustard" Anna
may not be very young, but she is, GER
| tainly, very innocent. One day, in litera-
| ture, we met with the word coquette, and
| Anna, turning to me with puzzled frown,
| exclaimed, "What does coquette means"
| Of course I did not know either, 80 we
| both asked Miss Elizabeth Doyle, who Is
| well versed In all such matters, and her
l explanation was 30 satisfactory that If any
| of you desire any similar explanation I
| would advise You to apply to her. She Is
| a very graceful dancer and it is to her that
| many of us owe our proficiency In
| that art, she having held dancing classes in
| the lower dressing room during our junior
| and senior years. Although she is usually
very cautious in what she says, once in
| awhile she makes an incautious clip, as for
| instance, talking about teaching one day,
| Lizzie said she was going to make spec
| ialty of history and that she intended to
use Gibbons history exclusively.
| A striking illustration of looks being de-
cep!ive, ia Miss Margaret A. Murphy. 10
look at her sitting in the front seat in No,
10, her arms folded, shoulders lowered.
and eyes religiously fixed on her book, you
would think that she was indeed
| model scholar. But how mistaken you
would be. Her eyes, it is true, are on her
l book, but where are her thoughts? Per
haps when have told you a little more
you can guess. She has great musical
taste, possessing an exquisite contraltc
voice, and performing with considerable
ability on several musical Instruments
displaying most proficiency, however, in
har handling of the harp. To the inquiry
which ia her favorite song, she always re
plies with the same righteousness, "Wen
to be Frank, Reilly and the Four Hun
dred.'"
Miss Lulu Lennon, the last of this in
teresting quartet, one day during astrono
my recitation sstonished the class by say
ing that electricity is great help to thu
horse cars. Another day discussing pre-
fixes, some one turned to Lulu and said
"What prefix do you prefer to a names'
And she answered very quickly, "Why
| Van, before name of COURSE"
"Divinely fair and most divinely tall" il
Miss Louise Schmahl. She is an enthus
iastic bicycle rider and rides wheel al
we'll as she recites astronomy, which ii
saying good deal. Louise occasionally
makes queer remark, as at on
and queen died having no chill
dren, their grandson succeeded them.
! And at another time while at physi
| ology she was heard TO complain tina
she s'didn't have whole man yet"
If an extraordinary person or thing i
ell that constitutes mascot, then Mis
Lottie Balzsr ought to be made our elias
mascot, for she certainly is an extraor
binary person. She weighs 100 pounds
; has lung power Of 210, and, she Gays, Ell
ways uses telescope in her physiologica
researches.
Miss Julia Mclaughlin, one of our girl
with high aspirations, wanted to declain
at the graduation; but when 1t was fount
that che had learned 1.-THE Boy Stood OIL
the Burning Deck" she was refused per
mission to even try. by heartless com
, mittee who unfertingly pronounced i
''too antiquated."
Il At Miss Kittie Hsrty's request, nothing
silly will be said about her. Not that
l WOuiu coy dhyUuluS SIAy 0oouo IAAeLAos ~
because she Is the most sensible girl II
school. How sensible she is you may con
clude from the following: Wishing to tr,
the new electric cars, early one evening sh
| thought she would take a ride TO West
vile. She hailed an approaching cal. and
after learning from the conductor (who
by the way, was not a stranger to K,ttie)
that the fare was five cents each way, ant
satisfying herself that she had the tel
cents, che boarded the car, and started, a
she thought, for Westville. The ca
logged along and Kittie was having a de
lightful time, when, after riding about al
hour, the door was thrown open and tn
conductor shouted "Morris Cove" Al
though Ktttie possesses naturally stron
constitution, at these words she nearl,
tainted, and has not entirely recovered
since.
The exercises then closed with a song b!
the class, entitled 1.-THE Volunteer Guard.
Much praise ia certainly due Professo
Jepson for the excellent manner in whicl
the class was trained in the singing.
