What the yearbook said

Gertrude entered this institution of learning a timid freshman with long dark curls; she is leaving it a sophisticated senior with an extremely short bob. This bob was in evidence on the Athletic Field last fall when Gertrude vigorously beat the bass drum in the High School Band. Besides being a bass drummer, she is a poet, having contributed a great deal of the verse found in “School Life” this past year. She is also a dancer. Whatever this versatile young lady chooses for her life work, we know that her jolly grin and true friendliness will carry her safely on the road to happiness.
