Margaret entered Wesleyan greatly handicapped by the unconcealed expec- tations of the faculty that she would sustain the brilliant records made by the two sisters who had preceded her. Little did this drawback trouble her freshman soul, however. She had her own ideas about how to manage a col- lege career, and she forthwith proceeded to execute them. She has always got- ten what she started after — be it a basket-ball victory ' or a Senior privi- lege. Her ready wit has made her con- spicuous at class and college functions, and her loyalty, which is as true blue as her eyes, has won for her a world of friends. o

In 1914, Mattie came to take her place in our class, and a big place it proved to be. Who does not remember the timid voice apologetically waking you from a blissful Sunday snooze with an “Aren’t you going to Sunday School this morning?” Mattie is a perfect adept in the use of the “Palette and Brush,” and it is inevitable that her paintings will some day adorn the Hall of Fame. Her bewitching dimples bear evidence that ere her startled eyes opened upon this world, the angels stooped and kissed her; but a look into her mischievous eyes convinces us that we heed some proof that she has had such close connection with the angelic host. She is sympathetic and lovable, sincere and original.

Since she has not been sufficiently named, we shall add a few more: An- gelic (when she desires to be) Andro- mache Pert Prim Porter Tiny Trim Taylor Bailey. Now that we have given you an introduction, we sadly inform you that you can never hope to know her, for she is a creature made up of surprises. You think you see in her some rare characteristic, but, lo! it is gone — eclipsed by some brilliant trait of an entirely opposite kind. You will at last give up and leave the enigma for eternity to solve.
