Alumitap Nntrs Two of our number hzve been pursuing further their studies at college. M ' Ledge Moffett is finishing her course in Domestic Science at Columbia University. She expects to take her degree in June. Lucy Madison is at Randolph-Macon Woman ' s College in Lynchburg. All of our members except three, besides those already mentioned, have held good positions during the year. It has been unusually pleasant for some, because of the fact that there have been two or more in the same place. Roanoke has claimed fi ' e, Richmond four, Charlottesville three, and Harrisonburg has had se -en within its borders. Nineteen members of the Association have responded to the call of the rural schools, and we hear only good reports from their work. Misses Davis, Lyle, and Shepperson in Richmond, and Royce in Charlottesville are supervisors in the public schools. Miss Madison as super- visor of Domestic Science in Albemarle County is doing splendid work, also Miss Dudley in Halifax County. The Student Aid Fund which was started by the first Senior Class and is maintai;ied bv the Alumna? Association has been used to advantage this year for four worthy Seniors. Nearly all the members have signified their intention to return for Commencement and the annual meeting of the Association. It is rumored that Dan Cupid will prevent several from attending the June meeting, but at the time this goes to print nothing definite has been ascertained.
