'STATIA BRILL It is no easy task to write up Stativa, for she possesses -so many 2.d'II15i1 Ei.b1B qualities. Sh-e has what we all admire, per- feet fpoise. For .Staitia is above all Well bavlaneed. On the scholastic side, her brifllianey is too Well known to need fur- ther mention. As for dsomestieity, she eonfesses that she adores sewing. But to drop down from ,these serious heights we wlill -say that Staitia, is Xa, good sport, and a fellow srtudent of Whom we are proud. Wheii the Senior 'Class sep-ara.tes forever, many will 'be the classmates who will sincerely miss her. B-ut whatever werhk onf life she nray follow, may Good 'n'ortune and Happiness attend her!
