Crucible C31 vs 36 Our Lady of the Golden Flower is, by general consent, not only the most ifltcllcclugll and handsome member of our class, but also the most popular girl in college. Very early in our college career, we had intimations of the addi- tion of the Queen of the Orient to our rgnks. In our Sophomore year, the yellow chrysanthe.. mum was hailed fairest of flowers. At our Junior Prom-the best there has even been- the air of the Orient was unmistakable and sure, Very early in our Senior year, our Lady Kiku consented, in view of our virtues and IICCOITI- plishments, to adorn our class. This has been the greatest of all our many victories. Her devotion to us has been loyal and true. As unconscious of her virtues as a flower gf its fragrance, she is the embodiment of all that is noble, uplifting and true in us, a friend who weeps in our sorrows and joys in our vicgm-ies, Biddy daily journeys from the metropolis of Riverside to our hall of learning. She divides her time equally between the John I-lay Library and geology expeditions. When she mentions the numbers of her many Math courses we, who barely passed Math 3, gasp and try to change the subject. To see Edith at her best, you should hear her discuss educational problems with Professor Jacobs. We all know the value of her kind heart. Stray kittens and lonesome Freshmen seek her out for sympathy. Next year Edith intends to entertain High School pupils with Math.

Glee Club C35 C45 Alice is one of the Taunton trio. In her Sophomore year she left Colby to be leading man for the Komians. She won the prize in our lleauty Contest, although Jennie considers her merely pretty, and she herself says her head is too big for genuine beauty. At any rate, her mortar-board is two whole sizes larger than any other Senior's, and the difference isn't all due to brains. But Alice has a mission in life- just look at that chin!--its object is to make everyone join the Komians, and then borrow their friends' furniture for plays. She has a strange and inexplicable yearning toward Christy heads and Pawtucket Freshmen, al- though there is no noticeable connection between the two. She leads the Seniors to chapel, and once, in her eagerness to see if they were fol- lowing in a straight line, slipped down a whole Hight of stairs. Her future yearnings are divided between Simmons and teaching. She.came to Brown from Bucknell College, and at first became a member of the class of 1912, but finding that her intellectual powers entitled her to a place in the ranks of IQII, she became affiliated with us, for which we are duly glad. According to her own statement, she is a grind, at least in endeavoring to digest the contents of Iudd's Psychology,,' but although she is a conscientious worker, we cn- tertain no serious anxiety that' she will break down from over-study. She is never cross, and her plaintive voice oft breaks forth into melody which floats through the corridors of Miller Hall. Beth has two grave faults-she cannot see a joke, and she is subject to thrills, College education is helping to remedy the for- mer, but the thrills seem to be incufilllle- After acquiring true culture at Brown, Sl1C hopes to take up the work of educating lllc young.

Debating Team Q45 t 1 l Marion has deceived a great many people into thinking her Z1 grind because of her SCri0l1S 01121 dreamy expression. But such is not the fact. She could hold a book either right side up or up side down, gaze out of the window for half an hour and the substance of the book would somehow be absorbed, and become a part of Marion's mental equipment. An abnormal aver- sion to masculine beings has caused her-t0 avoid dances and courses on the Hill during but as a Senior she most of her college course, indulged in German 6. She belongs to the small minority who think it is over-pretentious to wear a Phi Beta Kappa key. Catherine's irrepressible laugh has brightened Pembroke for four years, and she is the best known remedy for the blues. She is a devotee of the history department and of Professor Langdon as her frequent, i'WelI, Courtney says- would show. If Miss VVilcox used foxes instead of cats in Biology 22, Catherine would undoubtedly be inseparable from Rhode Island Hall also. She says she is going to teach next year, and wherever she may be thot place will be the brighter for her snaplly DFCS' CRCG.
