Karno ' s our class comedian and cartoon- ist and she has more pep and giggles than the whole school rolled into one. She ' s never been known to fail to cheer up the glummest cases of hi lies and that is no s mall compliment. We know- that she ' ll be famous some day with her pep, her talent, and depth of character — depth that few people realize. 28

The Abbot Circle 192 1 LOUISE VAN DERVOORT Wee Vandy Moline, 111. Vassar Two years Bible Group Leader ' 21 Advisory Board ' 21 Arm Band ' 20 A perfect woman, nobly planned.

Two years Class Secretary ' 20 Advisory Board ' 20 Arm Band ' 20 Bible Class Leader ' 21 Editor-in-Chief Class Book Board Senior Play Mind girts not of herself. Who is that whistling so quietly and so nicely? Why that is Dee-Dee. That has been one of her deep hidden secrets, and fortunately for us we have found it out. Dee -Dee does everything in the same way she whistles. She ' s capable and efficient and the kind of a girl whose motto is If you haven ' t something nice to say, keep quiet. 27

There ' s always a twinkle in Marianna ' s eyes and she always has a pleasant word for everyone. And when you stop to think about those eyes they tell their own story. Marianna ' s cer tainly bright and wide-awake, one of Miss Morgan ' s prize pupils, and we thoroughly enjoyed her Draper reading last spring.

MARY WILLIAMS Welles! ey Nanking, China Arm Band ' 20 Two years Thou hast the patience and the faith of saints. Here comes Mary, her curls almost bobbing off, all transported with delight. Why? A nice, big fat letter from her beloved China. Mary has a remarkable sense of humor and her own way of saying things. She is forever keeping her room neat ' n ' nice, and it ' s not very often that you do not see some kind of flowers there. Some of us don ' t know Mary as well as we ' d like to, but these of us who do, realize what the others miss. 29
