ALMA ADAMS CHASE CITY, VIRGINIA Mecklenburg Club, 1923-24; Lanier Literary Society, 1924-25; Burnma Bita Supper Club, 1924-25; Y. W. C. A., 1924- 25; French Club, 1924-25. One is at once attracted by Alma’s piquant face, shining black hair, and large dark eyes. She has little to say. may even be pronounced shy, but one may know that under that outward ap¬ pearance of timidity there is an ob¬ serving and a busy mind. HELEN ADKINS RICHMOND, VIRGINIA Advertising Editor Acorn, 1923-24; Tidewater Club, 1923-24, 1924-25; Var¬ sity Basket-Ball Team, 1923-24; Glee Club, 1923-24; Mission Study Class, 1923- 24; Athletic Association, 1923-24; Y.

One always couples a cheerful voice and a joyous laugh with Helen. Always the same, always true to her ideals and faithful to her duty, she has made col¬ lege-day friends that will be life-time friends.

EVELYN SPANGLER FRIES, VIRGINIA President of Glee Club, 1923-24; Var¬ sity Basket-Ball Team, 1923-24, 1924-25; Y. W. C. A., 1923-24, 1924-25; Athletic Association, 1923-24, 1924-25; President Blue Ridge Club, 1924-25; Vice-Presi¬ dent Senior Class, 1924-25; Zeta-Zeta, 1924-25; Clef Club, 1924-25; E. A. P. Literary Society, 1924-25; Glee Club, 1924-25. Little can be said of Evelyn’s outward appearance beyond the fact that twice she has been chosen the prettiest girl at Blackstone College. She always has a word and a smile for everybody, and she has made friends who will always love her for herself as well as for her charm. WINIFRED MOORE ENRIGHT, VIRGINIA Tidewater Club, 1923-24, 1924-25; Y. W. C. A., 1923-24. 1924-25; Athletic As¬ sociation, 1923-24; Mission Study Class, 1923-24; Secretary-Treasurer Senior Class, 1924-25; Vice-President French Club, 1924-25; Life Service Band, 1924- 25; Treasurer Y. W. C. A., 1924-25; Chairman Program Committee of Lan¬ ier Literary Society, 1924-25. Winnie’s soft, yellow curls are the envy of all, especially since the rule against curling irons has been so well enforced. And many, too, envy the sweet disposition and the perfect unself¬ ishness of her. Winnie lives a sermon in her daily life, and B. C. G. will miss her influence after she has gone.

ACORN ESTHER BERKLEY drake’s BRANCH, VIRGINIA Mission Band, 1924-25; Y. W. C. A., 1923-24, 1924-25; Lanier Literary Soci¬ ety, 1924-25. More than one will be influenced by the example of love and unselfishness that is the life of Esther. We know that B. C. G. will be proud of the work that she will do in the world, and that when she leaves these College walls she will leave behind her an indelible impression of a character of true merit. ELOISE BLANTON GUINEA MILLS, VIRGINIA Alpha Omega Club, 1923-24, 1924-25; E. A. P. Literary Society, 1924-25; French Club, 1924-25; Y. W. C. A., 1923- 24, 1924-25. Despite the popular idea to the con¬ trary, there are still a few quiet girls outside the convents, and Eloise is one of these. But she can talk—she just doesn’t see the necessity of talking “to make a noise.” Eloise has shown an unselfish nature in her school life which has given her an undeniable right to a place in the hearts of those with whom she has come in contact.
