G. needs an abundant sense of humor to back her strong con- victions and to perform her duties, she needs depth of sympathy and tactg she must be a practical idealist. Neflie is all of this-and more. She is a fascinating realist with a Hair for wit and nonsense, yet she seldom fails to apply her ideals to everyday life. One feels that here is a distinct individuality, discerning and thoughtful, one who has no foolish illusions, yet is never Chorrible thoughtj a youthful cynic. What we like most among her attractive characteristics is her practicality. Neffie has both feet on the ground and likes it.

Of course, she's won-even though the sun is hot enough to raise blisters on a bare wall! Ioan always manages to come out on top. Perhaps it's because shels a hard worker-you see, it isn't for nothing we've been watching her oblivious concentration in study hall- and elsewhere. We've often met that determination-which heads towards obstinacy in matters of her own locks or the choice of favorite poets-but found it softened by a humor that doesn't mind laughing even at herself. Content yourself! Itis not for her great grandfather that we like Ioan! Twenty-three

TIIREE YEARS Class President Board of Editors of SLlIN1lIg1lIldf Marionette Member, II-III-IV Glee Club, Ill-IV Song Contest Substitute, III Cercle Francais. III-IV Christmas Choir, ll-III Christmas Pageant, IV Mardi Gras, III-IV Poised and resourceful, she dispatches her duties with a calm efficiency that is the ad- miration of everyone. Mary Edna is one of those gifted people who, though in reality bur- dened with a multitude of tasks, never seems to have a care in the world. We donht know how she maintains that unhurried appearance in the midst of a scurrying breathless mob, but she goes on her successful way unperturbed. We admire, also, her amiable friendliness and enjoy her offhand wit, two qualities which make her one of the most pleasant com- panions we know. Of all the words we might apply to our beloved president, there is one ELEANOR I-IARTLAND O'NEILL Woodbury, Connecticut The lmrri fa corieeizfe, the m1rlr'r.mnu1'ing 10 direct, and Ihr hand to c'xecu1e.

We'd hardly recognize our cheery, happy-go-lucky friend by the dignihed name, Eleanor. But she is turning out to be a genuine disciplinarianl If Iim doesn't give S.M.S. a creditable chapel line, it won't be her fault. Do you need a car or a place to entertain? Why search farther? The O'Neills are always generously at hand to offer the best of good times. And just leave it to Iamcs to lead the hockey and basketball cheers-for Iim's pep isn't confined to Glee Club at all. A long line of friends everywhere awaits her pleasure. Do you wonder? No-not if you know her! Tll'!'!IIj'-IIUU

CThis latter fact is obvious when we read month after month the little slip stating that Martha Curtiss may study in her roomj Read the list of her oflices, too, and you'll realize that Martha takes time off to share her enthusiasm and ability with the rest of us.

Why, of course, it's Fatty, collecting more money! I-Iasn't she been on the go like that for three years now? Recalcitrant members of '32 would rather brave parental wrath to beg for class dues than face Fatty pennilcss. Determined practice has brought her also to the enviable point of ability to typewrite in rhythm to the favorite Stars and Stripes Forever. And she is a marvel in the realms of hockey and basketball. Fatty's determined spirit overcomes all pessimism and other obstacles and mal-:es her a staunch supporter of all things S.M.S. Twenty-lam'
