Had those immortal lines of Tennyson been written of a babbling brook of laughter rather than of the tiny, laughing stream that flows happily through woodland and meadow, they could truly be applied to our Edith. She is like a fountain of joy, scattering ripples of laughter wherever she goes. Her happiness is contagious, for when life seems overshadowed by the dark clouds of worry attendant upon the cares and trials of our schoolgirl life, the sunshine that is Edith inevitably pierces through the darkest and heaviest of them and dispels the gloom. Can you blame us for loving her, even if that famous giggle does naught to enhance the dignity of the seniors? Edith is the Peter Pan of '28, Though she looks hopefully, even eagerly to the future, she cannot restrain a sigh and a rather regretful longing for the dear days that used to be. She will travel far in life, gaining and holding many friends by the delightful charm of her sunny, smiling character. She will reach success, perhaps upon a bubble of laughter, but even that will reflect the rainbow of happiness that she spreads before all whom she meets. 26

The more one knows, the more one knows one does not know-if you follow us. At any rate, the more a person knows the less he talks about it. Well, if you've followed us, Mary must know that she doesn't know a great deal, and if you haven't, it's this: Mary never talks about what she does know which happens to be a great deal. She says and does everything so quietly, but so well. Who could help loving one who is so talented, yet never shows it, except at the right time and in the right place, and is ever ready to give a helping hand to a less fortunate classmate? We cannot, and we hope the world is just as appreciative of real value as we have learned to be. We give to the world a girl with a heart of gold, and we doubt if the world will find a treasure with which to cancel its debt to us. We charge you, world, to give her of your best-Ahappiness and success-gfor she will give her best to you, and there is little better. 25

Being quite typically Irish, the name is very well suit ed to Eleanor, We think. She is a girl about whom only nice things can be said. Although she denies it most emphatically, she is the light of the class. When We fail to solve a problem in algebra, it isrto Eleanor We turn for an explanation, and she makes it clear. When ethics becomes even worse than usual, it is Motza who sheds illumination upon the subject. Yes, verily, she is a star that giveth much light. Nor must we forget to tell you that she is lightfhearted, too. In fact, who has a greater sense of humor than our illustrious class president? And who plays a better game of basketball? For h'Motza is also athletic and plays guard so guardedly that no forward wishes to have this guard guard her. She has many other talents too numerous to mention. We can only say that because of them Cor is it in spite of them?j she has tripped into the hearts of one and all of her classmates and, regardless of time or place, will always remain there. We shall ever remember her as President Coolidge's only rival during the years of our highf school career-nineteen twentyfiive, six, seven and the memo' rable year of nineteen tvventyfeight. 27
