BARBARA BORCHARDT Happy am I when from care I'm free. FOIUR YEARS Board of Editors of Salmagzindi Glee Clwb, I-II-IV Marionettes, III Whenever we hear a tinkling laugh or a deep giggle, we always know that Bar- bara is near at hand. She is one of those people that you love to Watch and listen to, even from a distance. Her face migihit have been the madonna in some gre-at master- piece, and there is a charm even in her soft, rich voice. Yet, knowing Barbara is even better that merely observing her, however pleasant that may be, for there is a gay friendliness about her, an ever-ready helpfulness, and a keen interest which makes you seek her company. After four years, we still hold our first impression of her- love for her and her friendly smile. JOSEPHINE FRANCIS BRADLEY Some feelings are to mortlalls given With less of earth in them than heaven. ONE YEAR Board of Editors of Sallnziagundi Marionette Member, IV, Play, IV Glee Club, IV Song Contest, IV Senior Play Jo is two girls in one--first, an idealist, with a love of adventure, of dreaming, and delightful nonsense, a writer of charming poetry, who philosophizes on idealsg the second, the steadfast Jo, who helps Glee Club, who works diligently on her lessons, who delighted us with her fine acting-the poor, deaf woman was so grief stricken- in The Exchange. Could there be a more pleasing combination? And both these Jo's are brimful of school spirit and friendliness, school spirit which 'has made her enter eagerly into all activities and a friendliness that has carried her into all our hearts with her half gay, half serious personality.

'tFew things are impossible to diligence and skill. RUTH ANNE BUNCE Many can brook the weather that love not the storm. THREE YEARS Secretary of Student Government, IV Assistant Business Manager of Salmagumli Marionette Member, II-III-IV Marionette Plays, II-IV Glee Club, II-III-IV Song Contest, IV Business Manager of Basketball, IV Senior Play In describing Nappie, where shall we start? We might begin in so many different ways. Like a diamond-every light in which we hold her shows a new beauty. Her dramatic skill-and character acting, too-her sweet singing, her ability in managing the basketball, her delightful Magpie contributions, her ever-conscientious work on the Stu G., that bright smile, and oh, that lovable disposition! They are all just a few of the beauties in our diamond, beauties that twinkle forth right merrily, proving to all how lucky we are to have her, and proclaiming to all that any one with such attributes will surely be a success. VIRGINIA H. JOHNSTON FOUR YEARS Class Orator Dramatics Editor of Salmaguiioli Magpie Board, III Business Manager of Magpie, IV Marionette Member, I-II-III-IV, Play, I Secret-ary of Cercle Francais, III President of Cercle Francais, IV French Play, III-IV Glee Club, IV Latin Club, IV Senior Play Oh, .Iinky will know that. And so to her we go, whether our problem be geome- try or what to wear to a tea-dance. There is no one more fitted for business manager of the Magpie, nor a more poised hostess, who speaks French so charmingly for presi- dent of French Club,-and our orator's silver tongue. But Jinky could not always be perfect, which makes her even more lovable and amusing. She sometimes, at least about fingernails, stubbornly insists on her own point of view. Besides Jinky's charm and personality, there is an indescribable quality which makes her successful in any thing she chooses to do, whatever it may be. Twenty-five

FRANCES BANCROFT BRIAINE It is a very good world to live in. FOUR YEARS Editor-in-Chief of Salmugzmdi Magpie Board, II-III-IV Marionette Member, I-II-III-IV, Play, III-IV President of Marionettes, IV Cercle Francais, IV Glee Club, II-III-IV Song Contest, II Senior Play Bannie?-Presto chomgo! We see a hundred different pictures:-the author of heart-stirring fiction and exquisite verse, the versatile actress in our dramatic club playsg Madame President of the Marionettesg the first member of our class to make the Glee Club twelve , the editor-in-chief of our Sail! But the Bannie that we know and love best is the one whose ideas and interpretations of the commonplace carry us into another world, the one who entertains us with her unlimited supply of anecdotes and clever pantomimes, the one who is always friendly. The best Wish that '29 can give Bannie is that she may always keep those enchanted words, Presto chiango! VIRGINIA ALBAUGH BUMP Smooth is the water when the brook rzms deepf, ONE YEAR Board of Editors of Salmagzmdi Marionette Member, IV Marionette Play, IV Senior Play To write about Jinny and do her justice seems impossible, for her most important charms are so' intangible. We know they are there, because We see the results, but we simply can't describe them. Of course, there are her patience, her diligence, her determination, her sympathy, her helpfulness, her cleverness, and her friendliness. It may be the combination of all these that makes her so lovable, yet there seems something deeper-an understanding of human nature and a love of life. Besides gaining our respect, this charm has, in her one short year here, won her way into our hearts. Twenty-seven
