Portrait of q Senior .

On May %, 1926, in Detroit,
Mich, Ruth Jabs made her
first appearance in the world,
and now as a senior she is a
girl many people have to look
up to for she is almost five feet
eleven inches tall, the taIlest
feminine member of the senior
class. When she was one year
old, she moved to Hardin, and
four years later journeyed to
Lodge Grass, where she under
went eight years o fgrade school
drudgery. The first two years
of her high school life were d.
vided between the Lodge Grass
high school and the school at
st. Xavier. As a freshman and
sophomore, she sang in her
school glee club, and participate
ed in dramatics during her
sophomore year. When she was
a junior, she made her appear
ance in Hardin Hi and has been
here ever since.
Ruth's hobby Is the mastery of
the black and ivory keyboard of
the piano. Her favorite song Is
my Heart Tells Me-, although
Just what it tells her is some
thing no one has found out as
yet, unless it is something about
a tall, dark, and extremely
handsome boy whom she pro-
claims as her ideal. Her favor
tie sport is horseback riding, and
her favorite food is ice cream
and cake. She says that she
especially dislikes gossipy people
although she also dislikes nosey
newspaper men. This year she

plans for the future.

Who is this biography about?
It concerns itself with Margy--
Margorie Ellen Frickle, to quote
her full name. May II is the
date on which she observes her
birthday, being as it was on
this day in 1925 when she first
began to make a place for her
self in this world. She is a true
Montanan at heart, having been
born at Billings and having re-
sided at Hardin for quite some
time.
This year in school, Marjorie
manages to keep herself pretty
busy with her four subjects,
tipping, shorthand, bookkeeping,
and chemistry. However, she
does find time for outside act
ivities. Marcy is historian of the
Senior Class this year. This is
also her third year in Oronyx.
She has one year in Glee Club
to her credit, as we'll as partici-
patton in the Junior Play last
year.
AS for favorites, she has many.
To begin with, her favorite SUBJ
ject is bookkeeping, her favorite
paStime is a show, and her favor
tie song is "~STARDUST". She
names a toasted cheese sand
wich as her favorite food, al
though she had some trouble de-
Gliding between that and macar-
oni and cheese. Evidently she
likes cheese). Blue is her favorite
color and a red rose her favorite
flower. It's interesting to notice
that her favorite flower, color,
and song are the same as the
flower, color, and song of her
class. Marjorie must have some
influence somewhere. Her favor
lite dislike in snobbish people
especially if they are girls. She
also disapproves of rayon stock
ings, high-heeled shoes and an
kets, and slack.s
Say, boys, if you believe that
you resemble John Payne or
Allen Ladd, land can make her
think you do) then here is your
chance. Those are the only re-
quirements Marjorie gives for an
ideal boy. BY the way, Allen
Ladd is her favorite actor.
Marcy hopes to become a
nurse, and, If her ambition Is
achieved, any boy who knows
Marjorie will tell you it would
ba a Joy to be sick.
