In K liook of synonyms, Harriet Evans Huuld he synonymous for many polished ;ui(l refined phrases, such as ■Jliss Bene- dict ' s aide-de-camp, ' the bulwark of our college, ' and the source of our strength. Without lier. order and quiet this year would be as extinct as the dodo bird or the ichtliyosaurus, and Student Government would have limped about on one cri])pled leg instead of marching stolidly forth on four. For all that she has done for the iirganization and for each one of us indi- vidually, we all together, unanimously, and without one dissenting voice, exclaim, ' Tliiiiik Mill. ll;in-iet! '

Frances is probably the best living example of the truth of that ancient prov- erb, Great oaks from little acorns grow. ' ' Ihe acorn is to be seen on her personal page among Seniors Viewed and Re- iewed, its short skirts Haunting coquet- 1 islily across the page. The great oak, witli the exception of its roots, which the |iliotographer didn ' t include, is to the left. Frances lias grown in more directions than upward, liowever. She has grown to the dignity of her cap and gown without appar- ent ditticulty ; slie has grown quite fond of ileaning U]) the campus; she has grown to lie an exjicvt in all bidlogical matters, and as liu incss iiunia;;cr of the magazine she has grown invalualdc.
