OF Citra High School
(By Miss Hulda KunZe.)

We are sorry 10 say that for various
end sundry reasons, which would tire
you my dear hearers were We to relate
them. our numbtr has gradually di-
minished till only the few and faithful,
remain. In the following sketches we
rave pictured each student as filling
all enviable position in life. not merely
because we wished 70 fiatter the sub
tect, but because we felt that they who
rave shown such determination and
perseverance where others showed in
stability and lack Of determination,
would be sure to succeed
The subject of our first sketch has
o quite unassuming. lovable nature.
She is tall and slender and has such
very light hair that at the first glance
! OH might think it Is gray but when
your eyes wander to her face, you
know that she IS a very young girl,
indeed. IN dress she is dainty and
neat. and in her studies she is a care
full, studlous girl. She has blue eyes,
4 straight nose, and We are sorry to
say, big mouth. She wears No. six
shoes, No ten gloves and no hat at
all. She has very good appetite, is
very found of cucumbers, and the only
Il ing she brings for her lunch seems
to be chocolate cake. She seems to
be favorite Of the gods. divinely fair.
Looking into the future we can see
er busily attending to the comforts
CT her many guests. She is the
charming landlady of Hotel Citra.
while her husband is one of the most
popular doctors in Citra.
The easiest way to describe our next
classmate\ is to say that she would
much rather jump over the fence than
go around by the gate. She is jolly
good natured, kind hearted girl. We
would not like to tell her, but we
think she is a very nice looking girl
and that she wins friends very quick
ly. She has brown hair, a fat face and
pretty teeth. In fact, as we<have said,
very pretty girl. AS we look into
the future we sees her an old maid
bookkeeper in Wilburn Melton's auto
mobile manufacturing establishment
The young gentleman of whom the
next sketch is written, is handsome
boy, or would be if he would straighten
up his shoulders and infuse a little
more determination into his character
Easy going, good natured and happy,
he is liked by one and all. AS to his
habits, there is one that tells on him.
We would judge by the smell of his
breath that it is bad brand that HE
smokes. He has brown eyer, complex
ion as fair as girl and pretty brown
hair. In the future. we fancy we can
hear the whistle of his MILL for this
young gentleman so slender and tall
is the owner of one of the largest mills
in Marion county. He is getting out
q bill of lumber for new school
house at Citra, also for a little cottage
home in which he hopes to install ia
little bride.
In describing this young lady we
would say that she is tall and slender,
has blue eyes and is fairly good look
ing She is one of the best natured
girls in school. She studies we'll and
is a model student in every way, when
found in school. She is very fond of
peanuts, and it is said of her that
she can eat peanuts and talk to the
teacher at the same time without the
teachers knowledge. We can see her
in the future in little home of her
own, raising chickens and planting
roses and peanuts with a charming
helpmate, who thinks he has the best
wife in the, world. l>
In speaking of this young gentle
man, we find words fail us. He is
handsome now and doesn't know it,
but later when he does find out how
nice looking he is, We are very much
afraid he will, be cOnceited unless his
good sense comes to his aid and
makes him what nature intended him,
gentleman. In his studies he is
forging ahead. He is at the head Of
his class and in our Judgment prob
I ably will stay there. In the future we
can see him with his dear little brown
eyed wife ct might be one of his
charming class mates of today at
! The head Of large automobile manu-
featuring establishment.
This charming little brown eyed girl
is very good natured, and while she
learns quickly she is inclined to be
rather lazy. She has light hair, a
round face, and is inclined to be fat.
She is a good enough writer to make
an excellent lawyer She can commit
very long pieces, having fine men,
Dry. In the future we can see her as
the helpmate Of sbme energetic class
mate and it might be one of her pres
ent day classmates.
Everybody likes the subject of this
sketch. He is too quiet. He never
talks except when spoken to; He is
very sensitive and cross word
ounds quickly. He is a student pure
and simple, and does every task as
we'll as he knows how. If we have a
model boy it is the subject of this
sketch. In the future it would not
surprise us if this young man becomes
either a celebrated Nj. d. or d. D.
