MAY PELEY She hath a natural, wise sincerity, A simple truthfulness, and these have lent her A dignity. Have you ever come upon a maiden who, before an audience of most attentive listeners, is giving a decided opinion upon the deepest subjects, and ofttimes singing the praises of New York or comparing the merits of rapid transitv here and there Qwe might say, mostly therej? With a preliminary, 'LWell, I think, she is launched wholeheartedly on the sea of debate, and at the end of the lengthy discussion we are sure to find her standing alone, victorious, all disputants having long since been obliged to join the ranks of the listeners for lack of convincing arguments with which to refute her state' ments. Yet we do not censure her but rather approve of her for her firm and steadfast convictions, and only hope that when she is launched on the far more turbulent sea of life, she may be as eager and ready to uphold the honor and sing the praises of her Alma Mater. 30

Helen has never been picked on an allfAmerican basketball teamg Paderewski is more famous than she in the world of musicg Newman was more intellectual and had deeper knowledge, hence, she is the most humble of creatures, and we love her for it. Who could resist the charms of a talented girl with a madonnaflike beauty, whose soft dark eyes never hold a glint of pride or hardness but whose every action bespeaks our ideal-a girl modest though richly talented, quiet though cheery. Helen's talents made her our vice-president before we knew the girl, but it is the girl whom we love who has held the office. She is everyone's friend, for no one could or would try to resist the friendly, compelling eyes and the plead- ing, tender smile. Her unassuming manner does not convey any 7 suggestion of her gifts, and she would not have it otherwise. V. Those gifts will carry her far, but it is Helen of the soft voice Q g, Q if 1 and charming, tender smile who holds the dearest place in our f Q memory.

A maiden fast in every branch ofthe game of life. She jumps into our hearts as swiftly and easily and surely as she cages a basketball. Her Hngers fly over the keys and seem to draw magic songs from the piano, just as her friendship flies to all and binds them by her magic charm. She is a talented musician and an earnest devotee of the art. It is hard to def scribe Claire, because her appearance seems to change with her mood-or is it her artistic temperament? One moment she has bright, shining, laughing eyes and an eager, contagious manner, another, she is serious and altogether above our un' Seniorlike frivolities. But always she is a good pal and a better l sport. We admire her for her gifts, We love her for herself. She plays the game fair and square, and so well! When we read her horoscope, We see that happiness and success are allotted her, and of both she deserves a rich share. Good luck, Claire! 31
