During these last four years we are sure she has worn out at least one set of office furniture waiting to talk with Mr. Eldridge on our behalf, and more than one pair of slippers standing at the head of our receiving lines. Never mind, Dot, the class will cheerfully consider all bills for such services as necessary luxuries. We pay them with our sincere thanks and the promise of our love and friendship in the years to come.

With a smile for everyone, she is a very special friend of us all. She is kind, sweet, and patient, and is loved by each and every one of her classmates. Her pleasant disposition and her magnetic personality are virtues which we should all like to possess. We know it would be most dificult to equal them. As an indication of Ella Mae's popularity among the students, and their confidence in her ability to lead, she holds the most ref sponsible position of any held by a student: she is president of the Student Council.

MARIE CLARK MoLLi ' SZIUOI Play Basketball W. A. A. Executive Board Soccer Commuters' Club Marching Song lwordsi Marie has com: to us this year from Dalton. but we feel that We have known her all four years. She is that kind of person, friendly sociable, and easy to know. Because of her helpful and willing nature Marie has made many friends during her stay here at college. Her ability to play basketball has made her an obiect of admira' tion and wonder, for her fast passing and her record for miking baskets is just too good for one person. Nothing is ever too difhcult to ask of Molly. for she is as capable as she is agreeable. With a smile she says, Yes, l'll do it . and presto' it is done! ELEANQR CORRIGAN CoRKi ' W. A.

With her gay and sparkling personality she seems to bring new life to every' thing she undertakes. As president of the Drama Club she has worked faithfully and well, and her enthusiasm in each new venture has been a strong incentive to her fellowevvorkers to trudge onward and to surmount all obstacles. Surely that is enough for one girl, but not for Corky. Sh: is a poet. and a true one, for no one but a real poet could produce lines of such exquisite beauty. We shall never forget her entrancing ivy poem. For you, Corky. we wish the best that life can bring to you. MACDALEN EICHERT Art Club 3, 4 Orchestra 2 Drama Club 1, 2 W. A. A. 1, 2, 3, 4 Glee Club 1, 2 Lena, apparently very quiet-f and most unconcerned about life in general, has surprised us greatly. Have you ever heard her conf tagious giggle or listened as she put forth the League of Nations' most recent proposal? Her high scholastic standards should be a challenge to all her classmates.
