Tampa, Fia. Byrd Shankle Hollandale, Miss, B. A; 2 I X; A A A; S. C. S. R. R.; Y. W. C. A.; Treasurer Milady in Brown, ' o8: President of Florida Club, ' oS; Missionary Committee of Y. W. C. A., ' o8- op , Business Manager of Blue and Bronze, ' og; Vice-President of S. C. S. R. R., ' 09; President of Sub-Senior Class, ' og; Delegate to Lexingfton Convention, ' 10; Treasurer of Y. W. C. A., ' 10; President of First Floor Fidelity Hall, ' lo; President of Tangerine to many, but commonly dubbed by her most intimate friends as Miss Priss. The biggest Piker in school, this name and and fame having been gained at midnight on March 5th, 1910 (?). A very popular giri, but most popular when the Florida oranges are ripe. They buy good votes. Wonder why she did not sell her secret to Bryan. So tall and slender and substantial, she makes the best kind of a Belmont column, though not so decorative as the Corinthian style seen in Recreation HaU. It has been feared by many that the foundations will quiver when she sUps out of place. Some of her admiring friends wished to erect a monument to her on her departure, but Miss Hood objected on the grounds that she forgot to pay her excess laundry once, the sum being three cents. Her poUtical aims are high — almost as high as she is — the burden of her many and various oflnces (mostly honorary) presses heavily upon her. Her favorite song is I ' ll be busy all the week. But with all this, we love her still, for she is truly First in fun, first in work, and first in the hearts of her schoolmates. Oh yes, she ' s from old Mississippi, This lady both lovely and smart. About her the fellows go dafEy, But Love, he has sure won her heart. She ' s not tall and gawky, Uke Gladys, Nor yet low and fat, Uke Edith; She ' s not prissy and bossy, like Ruius, Nor quite so loud-talking as Beth. But she is so pretty and graceful, For dancing she ' s famed far and near. The pin that she wears is a Phi one, And Harry ' s the name she holds dear.

Elizabeth Barnwell Centreville, Term. JuANiTA Evans Newberry, S. C. Deutche Verein, ' 09; Secretary Sub-Senior Class, 08; Assistant Treasurer Y. W. C. A., ' 09; Editor Blue and Bronze. ' 09; Chairman Literary .Committee Milady in Brown, ' io; Vice-President Upper Friendship Hall; Sec- ond Vice-President Y. W. C. A., ' 10. A brown-eyed maiden who has two ambitions — one to bltiff the teachers and the other to rank first in the Senior Class. She studies rarely and when caught at it, blushes furiously and com- mences to apologize. She never does anything wrong except when permitted to have her own way. In spite of all her faults, Elizabeth is a welcome addition to any gathering of girls. Three years at Belmont have won her many friends, and she keeps them all. B A; © K A.- AAA; S. C. S. R.; Y. W.

A., ' 09; Chairman Humor Committee of Milady in Brown, ' 09; M. S. M. of D. C. C. Club; Owl Club; Editor-in-Chief of Milady in Brown, ' io. Jan is one of our most enterprising girls. In- deed, her ambition, since she has received the well-merited honor of Editor-in-Chief, has risen to such a pitch that she finds it impossible to stay in school, so she spends almost all, if not all, of her time in the city on Annual (?) business. We are sure that the success of Milady in Brown has been due to her tireless efforts, helped out by her siren voice, which so entrances every one that they invariably do their best for her. Some people call this voice perpetual mo- tion machine, but far be it for common mortals to so dub a reverend Senior. The Self-Regu- lating Roll has a most worthy member in Jan. This statement is irrefutably proved by the fact that she rooms on Miss Webb ' s floor and still has a deportment grade of ninety. Although she has a great superfluity of hot air, she is still one of the most popular girls in school, and we feel that she adds greatly to the glory of the Senior Class of ' 10.

She came to us with the best of morals, but has long since been led astray. She has an innocent, though ready, smile, which has helped her out of many a scrape. She is very diplomatic and has tried her best these two years to bluff the faculty. She generally manages to get down to chapel in the morning, at least with a hair ribbon and over- coat on. She is exceedingly good-natured and has never been known to worry over anything except that 80 in Livy. She is generous to a fault, a friend in need and wouldn ' t knock — no, not even on those members of the facility whom she considers quite fierce. No girl in Belmont has more true friends than our rosy-cheeked Lila Belle. An all-arotmd good fellow. T 2,- A A A; X. Y. Z. ; Y. W. C.

And thy bright eyes sparkle, which seem to be Made solely to smile and to laugh and to tease. What marvel, then, if many Kentuckians share With Harry thy loved presence, dear, For where thou art, pleasure is there — Where thy smile, mute devotion hovers near.
