W. nCaI'Iine is all de time managing people. If.ber sence she's been born she's been bossing the folks around her. Especially is she noted for her tyranny over the other sex. She's de splendid- est girl dey is to tell your love affairs to. I-Ier one bad habit is that she is all de time robbing people of their hearts. Caroline ran a close race for the office of Chief Rag-chewer, on Rag Alley. IVIINNIE BOWMAN, A. B. ORANGEBURG, S. C. Member of Winthrop Literary Society, Y. W. C. A., and Cecilia Chorusg member of Hockey Team, I909-l9lIg Presi- dent of Orangeburg County Club, I9Il-I9l2. Minnie has the proud distinction of being one of the three question marks of the Senior Class. If there is the least chance for a discussion she jumps at it. Especially does she enjoy arguing with teachers. As a result of this habit she has won the hearts of all those members of her class whose names begin with letters ranging from A to Cu, and they all vote her a most useful member of society. ANNIE BROWN, A. B. Rocx I-In.1., S. C. Member of C. I... S. and R. S. I. A., Critic of Curry Literary Society, Second Term, I9ll-I9I2g Marshal at Commencement, l9ll. Annie Brown, as she is always called, is one of Rock I-IiIl's fifty-seven varieties. She is always ready to help a felIow in any deep trouble, especially in finding unknowns. She is very easy to vex, and you must step lightly around her, although the anger passes away in an instant. She has the peculiar habit of cutting things half in two, and always wants under, But she is a much-loved comrade. Her opinions on styles, modes, etc., are always consulted by the amateur dressmaker. 22

C-ENEVIEVE BECKHAM, A. B. Rock HILL, S. C. Member Class Basket-ball Team, 1909-l9l2g member of Curry Societyg member of Y. W. C. Ag President of F. T. Cu., Thalia German Clubg member of Executive Committee of C. L. S. Genevieve, better known as C-en, is a favorite with all. This is due largely to the fact that one can always be sure to find her in a good humor. She never seems out of sorts, and that grin of hers is decidedly catching. Genevieve is one of the seven class idols during the basket-ball season, for on the court she is truly a wonder. EDITH M. BIC-BY, A. B. WILLIANISTON, S. C. Member of Winthrop Literary Societyg member of Y. W. C. A. Although Edith's chief ambition is to be graduated from Win- throp, she does not believe in worrying or in over-studying. She is a great believer in luck and sleep, a fact which probably accounts for her happy, cheerful disposition. Her hobby just now is tennis. but since she is so fickle, it will probably be pro- fessors very soon. Edith's being a fair daughter of the gods does not prevent her having a favorite expression, which is somewhat shocking-''blab-take-it.,' And yet, why should one tell her faults when her virtues outnumber them so far? ALMA BLACK, A. B. BAMBERC., S. C. Meniber of Y. W. C. A., member of Winthrop Literary So- cietyg Qui Vive Editor, First Term, l9l0-l9llg Art Editor of TATLER, I9lI-I9I2, Secretary of Executive Committee of Win- throp Society, First Term, 1911, Treasurer of Y. W. C. A., l9ll-l9l2.g College Commencement Marshal. l9ll. Miss Dark tripped lightly across the Winthrop campus for the first time away back in '08, and soon developed such a liking for the Winthrop life that, when invited to remain for an extra year, she readily accepted. Generally sleepy, and resembling the snail in some of her habits, Alma sometimes startles the natives by sudden bursts of wit that show extreme originality. Among her many virtues, the greatest, perhaps, is that she is one of the most generous, big-hearted girls that ever rolled along the pike, and we consider seriously sending off for some more like her. 21

IRENE BROWN, B. S. PENDLETON, S. C. Member of Curry Societyg member of Y. W. C. A. and R. S. I. A. The hrst law of Heaven is order. This Irene believes in. preaches, and practices. She keeps up with her note books, and can actually find her belongings without having to hunt for them She has firm convictions, which she does not mind expressing when occasion demands it. She is very quiet and sweet, but how sarcastic! Irene is perfectly happy when she is talking about clothes. I-Ier aesthetic taste is also shown in her fondness for poetry, particularly that of Wordsworth. She is very much interested in Domestic Economy and everything pertaining to the home. MARY LOUISE BROWN, A. B. IVIARioN, 5. C. Member of Y. W. C. A.: member of Correspondence Clubg Reporter in Wade Hampton Literary Society, Third Term, 1909- l9I0g College Commencement Marshal, l9I0g Exchange Editor of fournal. 1910-I9ll, College Marshal, 1910-1911, President of Wade Hampton Society, l9lI-1912. I-Iere comes a three-in-one. If you are looking for a teacher, a housekeeper, or a social star, you need search no further. Louise's talent shines forth in the school-room, kitchen, or parlor. IVIABEL BROWNE, A. B. IVIANNING, S. C. Member of Winthrop Literary Society: member of Y. W. C. A.g member of R. S. I. A.g Assistant Art Editor of TATLER. Mabel is a quiet, demure girl, and seldom comes out of her shell to communicate with mankind, but we may be sure that she is attending to her own affairs. Beneath the bashful exterior her friends have found a good-natured, sweet-tempered girl, who always looks on the bright side of things. 23
