Caroline Van Note Oowdy VWTHETHER the yV atmosphere of Toms River is con- ducive to poetry or whether it is one of the characteristics of the family is not known, but that Caroline Van Note Gowdy of Toms River, New Jersey, would be a poet of Andover, if not of world renown was a generally acknowledged fact be- fore she had been in our midst a week. She has written poetry on every possible subject during her two years here, inspired partly by her literary surroundings in And- over and partly by her numerous crushes so it seemed only natural that she should be chosen class poet. Carol is not only a poet but an athlete for she holds the record of the fifty yard dash. As to the future she is undecided but next year she hopes to go abroad. 16

Grace Frances Fleek IF loyalty to our na- tive town counts for anything, Newark, Ohio should be happy in possessing Grace Frances Fleek as an inhabitant, for any in- sult against Newark, Miss Fleek takes as personal. She entered Abbot about five years ago and at once established a popularity which is not in the least diminished by the fact that she has grown to the dignity of an Abbot Senior. Grace was unanimously elected vice-president of her class and for three years has been business editor of the Courant. She is a member of the Glee Club and Base Ball team. For three success- ive years she has been a Draper Reader. The Y. W. C. A. would not be complete without her and last year she served as its vice-president. She goes from us to take her loyalty and popularity to her home in Newark. 15

Constance Reed Gutterson W 7 HEN Con- Vv stance Reed Gutterson of Melur, Southern India, first came to Abbot, every girl in school wondered if the power to charm was a gift that India bestowed upon all her daughters, or if Constance was one of Dame Fortune ' s favorites. At any rate it was not long before she was an acknowledged favorite here and after five years was voted unanimously the most popular girl in the class. She is the President of our class and last year was President of the Y. W. C. A., and besides these offices of importance is on the Base Ball team and Glee club. Although Con ' s dream of the future is to study medicine she has not yet decided to join the profession but will go to Winchester Mass., where she will make her home. n
