BERTHA BAYARD Her ready wit and cheery smile Proclaim to all a friend worth while. Betty is the gay, friendly, vivacious type of person who makes herself beloved by all. With her ready wit and attractive smile she naturally draws friends to her, so that where Betty is, there is a happy smiling group. She is lighthearted, but not light-headed, for she has proved herself depend- able, steady, and responsible at all times. Her class- mates ' recognition of these traits can be seen by her election to club and class offices. In short, Betty is an all-round, well-balanced person, — a good scholar, a fine executive, a gay comrade, and a loyal friend.

HELEN GORDON BELL There is a fair behavior in thee. Helen ' s life is dominated by high ideals, fine dis- crimination, and a wholesome philosophy. She has shown her class how to meet a student ' s daily obliga- tions to herself and to those a round her in a charm- ing and intelligent manner. Her cheerfulness when all around her are complaining; her calmness when excitement rages everywhere; her silent enjoyment of many a situation — for these we remember and admire her. Her ability to lead has found expression in her work as section councillor and member of dance com- mittees. Helen has pursued her studies with an en- viable success which we all hope sincerely will follow every undertaking in the future.

Her classmates cherish her tor the cheerful ness with which she meets each day ' s tasks, her unfailing readiness to aid in all activities, social or scholastic, and her gentle and gracious demeanor. She has shown her great love for music in her enthusi- astic participation in the work of the Music Club, and her deep appreciation of literature in her active part in the English Club.
