2 MISS CORINNE MERCER Secretary of the College B. A., Westyninster Miss Mercer has been with the college for sev- eral years in the Department of Music. This year, however, we who are pursuing the classics have had opportunity to discover that a sunny disposi- tion lies under her ciuiet reserve. She has often cheered our troubled spirits with her sincere smile ; and those who know her find her a true friend and companion. MRS. HENDERSON W. Va. State. Normal, 1890; L. I., Peabody Normal, 1895; B. L., University Nashville, 1896. As a clever salesman will tell you that each garment is the latest word in fashions, so we might present Mrs. Henderson as the latest word in books. Although the .Junior Class has devour- ed the greater part of the contents of the library ere this, we still find some occasions to go there, when we are very generously helped to whatever we desire by the genial librarian. Altho ' the soul of silence herself, Mrs. Henderson does not allow herself to be disturbed by the noisy library-goers, but hands out the books with the same smile for every one.

a 6 JULIAN WILLIAMS Professor of Organ Playing Who ' s any busier than Mr. Williams? We never see him that he isn ' t in a hurry. Indeed, many of the college students ask who he if. because they have had no chance to become acquainted with him. One thing we do know about him and that is his fondness for recitals. If you don ' t believe it, consult the New Castle papers. He is a pipe- organ instructor of marked ability. His work as an artist is noted for his wonderful technique and expression. Although his pupils in other places and his position as organist arid choir director in the Trinity Church, New Castle, keep him busy elsewhere, we would like to see more of him here. J. A. C. McQUISTON, D. U. Business Manager Dad McQuiston ably deaned the Hillside this fall. Before the arrival of Mrs. Strobridge, he was our capable assistant dean. Thiough his kindness, our impromptu reception was held the evening before the boys were mustered out. We must not forget the many things he did for the girls during his dormitory life. One and all know and like him as a pleasant man and a gen- tleman. He is always ready and willing to help in any way in which he is able ,if a student calls on him for aid. MARY SHAFFER A. B., Westminster, ' 13; Music, ' 13-19 If you feel like a good game of tennis or basket- ball, or a race over the ice, just call on Mary. There is no sport in which she does not excel. She has most ably conducted the girls ' military training this year and previous years have shown us her value as a Basket-Bail Coach. We consider ourselves fortunate, indeed, in having her as Physical Director for the girls. In her capacity of Secretary in the College of Music, we find her ever at her post and ready to see that we are at ours. 22
