195 Hampas Doris M. Appleton I knoiv a reasonable woman Handsome and ivitty, yet a friend — ' ' Who has not walked into the locker room to find a group of girls convulsed in mirth, and Doris in their midst entertain- ing them with some amusing account of an incident, which, told by another, would be banal and uninteresting? Her laugh is the most infectious in the world, and it is a physical impossibility to be within ear- shot of it and maintain a sober counte- nance. Her animation and feminine grace inspire delight. Her unique impersona- tions make her one of the most individual and refreshing of companions. Although it is whispered that Doris is a social butter- fly, her studies are not neglected.

Lithe as a graceful sapling. Dashing about the Gym with hair flying, eyes sparkling, and cheeks flushed, Helen is in her element. Her prowess in ath- letics is amazing, and her interest never wanes. What surprises us, however, is the fact that such a tomboy can be so immaculate in appearance and so con- scientious and capable in her work. Per- haps this efficiency accounts for her success as Secretary-Treasurer of our Span- ish Club; in this capacity she has handled both notes and money with ease and com- petence. In sharp contrast to her athletic and studious tendencies is her pet hobby, the collection of smart hats, — an interest which gives her an opportunity to display her originality and good taste.

Hampas 195 Anna Felicia Bell Her wit bubbles over in rollicking Our admiration goes to Anna, because with amazing courage and frankness she tells us the truth in a deliciously witty way that is hers alone. Who, but Anna, with her laughing spirit and -witty tongue, would quite dare to tell you what you are? These very qualities, plus an abundance of energy and a gift for leadership, have en- deared her to the hearts of all and made her one of the high-lights of our class. And speaking of leadership, who made a better president of our famous Aquarium Club than Anna, who talked, slept, and ate fish !

Ruby Benrimo Oh, blest with temper whose unclouded ray Can make tomorrow cheerful as today. Irresistible, contagious laughter! How refreshing to meet Ruby when you are dis- couraged, and to have gloom cleared away with her delightful gayety. Our Spanish Senorita holds a special niche in our memory, — memory that goes back to an assembly of our Freshmen days when Ruby became a troublesome school boy during a Spanish Club Assembly program, and back still farther with some of us to camp- ing days. In any situation. Ruby b ecomes fired with enthusiasm. Quick to act and pleasant to work with. Ruby is indeed a welcome addition to any group. How precious are the rubies which tint our college memories with rose-colored hues, and make them forever dear!
