It's amazing what some people can accomplish in a short time. '38 promptly felt Betty's understanding sympathy and cheerfulness. The expression ask for a bite and she'd give you the apple suits her to a 12, for generosity is just natural to Betty.

Franny will give all these to you and much more. The choir and Glee Club couldn't do without her unerring second alto, or the VVhites without her enthusiastic services as an all-round star. So you see, Franny, we just have to boast of our luckl lm the French Club and Athletic Association with en- thusiasm. In fact, quiet enthusiasm is present in everything Betty does from her interest in other people's good fortune to her support of all school activities. VVe certainly wish Betty had joined '38 sooner!

And Marjie loves such storms, too, - any- one would who could ski as she does. Her jump and stem turns deserve all the admiration they re- ceive!
