president— dignified and friendly. Though he is one of the busiest people on the campus, President James Ross McCain always maintains an unhurried calm and enviable poise. It is an inspiration to Agnes Scott students, who always believe themselves to be among the busiest of human beings, to watch their quiet, efficient president, with his many college and outside duties, still take time out for the many little things. He can often be seen watching a hockey game or swimming meet, attending chapel and vespers, greeting everyone with a friendly smile at senior coffee. And his olfice doors stand open, bidding welcome to any girl who wishes to go in and talk with him. Dr. McCain ' s effectiveness as an educator and a religious leader is recognized not only by Agnes Scott students, but by many others as well. He is a senator of the United Chap- ters of Phi Beta Kappa, a member of the General Education Board of New York, and a member of several important committees of the Presby- terian Church. To President McCain goes a large part of the credit of maintaining the high standards of Agnes Scott College. A new member of the adminis- tration is Miss Margaret Ridley, Recorder and teacher of freshman English. Miss Steele pauses for a moment in the mi checking over some important papers. Miss Laura Steele is the very efl cient secretary to the President. 16

Early in the year every fresh- man emerges from a talk with her with added courage, assured that the first six weeks are always the hardest and that there is time in twenty-four hours to get all that work done. Bella, as Miss Isabella Wilson is af- fectionately known, is secretary to the Dean. She helps keep the students posted on all the mysteries of dating, signing out, and other social regulations.
