BIABEL f'Unn.xN 'Twas hard to realize that the stately dignified senior who captured first prize at Kappa Speaking was once that shy, bashful freshman. Mabel was fortunately assimilated into our ranks from St. Joseph's School and for four years has been winning honors for Drury. Sophomore and Senior years, lNIahel's Kappa was one of the four best. As alunini editor of the Academe, she con- tributed so many UQ notes that she was re-elected Junior year. Usually, Mabel displays her convent behavior but once Bliss Spencer had to fire her. hlabel is one of those chosen to speak at graduation for high scholarship. Next year will find Mabel at Wellesley. STELLA Doomzv Stella coines from South Church Street. She rises at 5.30 and arrives at school just as the clockistrikes a quarter past eight. Stella takes a great delight in filling out tardy slips, and she has never known what it is to run short of an excuse. If you want a pencil ask Stella. she'll give you a short hand pencil, and what is more it will be so short. that you will not be able to write with it. Stella takes a great interest in typewriting, but niore so in the demonstrators that have visited the school in the past years. A great future is expected for Stella, who some day will invest her large fortune in a pencil manufacturing business. P' I
