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.

' Because of her constant and earnest efforts during her college years, we all feel certain that Jeannette will win success in her future work. Her interest in geography will, no doubt, lure her to tar lands and make of her a great traveler. Jeannette is a good student, too, of history. Perhaps it is her study of history that has developed the democratic ideals which make for a strong champion in defending whoever or whatever she thinks right. Her fine executive ability has been valuable in club activities. Jean- nette ' s cheerful face and merry laugh will long be remembered by her classmates.
