Kathleen is one of those girls whom we all admire. She has the rare gift of common sense along with a natural ability to learn Latin and Chemistry. At athletics she is a star, and we are relying on her to win the cup for us. Nobody guessed that she also had dramatic talent until it was forcibly brought upon us by her appearance in “Love and Tea.” It takes time, indeed, to bring all of Kathleen’s accomplishments to light, for not many of us possess Katherine Redman’s rare gift of character-reading. In short, Kathleen is a good all-round girl with a sweet dis¬ position. If we were all like her, Mrs. Willis’s problems would be solved. 14

HANNAH GAY DIXON GREENVILLE, N. C. A dancing shape, an image gay, To haunt, to startle, and waylay.” Little Hannah, known by the kindergarten as “that little grown-up Senior,” is one of the most valuable members of the class. She is certainly capable, for she carries six hard dailies, and a smiling face along with them. Hannah is gifted with the power to mock any soul on earth, and, for this reason, she is a popular addition to our Sunday afternoon parties. She is a noted French scholar, not only in “the real thing,” but also in an original, dialect, coined for the special amusement of her two roommates. To omit some mention of Hannah’s unselfishness and sweetness of disposition would be to omit half of her characteristics. By these special traits she has, in her four years’ sojourn here, made for herself a place to be envied. 13

o o o SJ □. Zi o When Mary Hughes made her first appearanc e at C. E. I., and started her brilliant career by making the honor roll, we all looked at her in wonder and admiration, and from that time we have never ceased to look at her in that way. Mary’s ability, moreover, does not lie en¬ tirely in lessons, for not only is she graduating in a college preparatory course this year, but she is also receiving a diploma in art. Mary’s talent as an actress, too, was notably displayed when she appeared in the production L ' Ecole des Belles-Meres.” Taking her sweet voice into consideration when she sings the class song, which she herself has composed, we ask what girl would not be proud to graduate with a class which possesses such a talented member? 15
