Well, that is Betty, a most indus- trious member of the class. She is another gal who doesn’t have to worry about where her next date is coming from. No, she has hers all lined up for weeks to come. “That fellow from Brat?’’ we ask. And she beams. “Yes!” Betty was born with a sunny nature for few people are as satisfied with life as she is!

For a s aunch friend, you can’t find a better one. This describes our Dot! She’s a swell pal and a hard worker. Latin III was quite a class, wasn t it.' You must admit though it «lid take a lot of courage to be in a class of three. I)«»t is very quiet but maybe she’s smart to just sit back and listen. We wonder what her interests are outside of school. Site is also one of our nurses- to-be. Luck to you. Dot. How lucky your patients will be!
