 r Louise Lutterloh t • . Florida V . ‘ • “And with her whol heart’s welcome in her smile.” - ■ After searching in vain for an appre- ciative and long-suffering audience, before which to perform in Florida, “Pattie” at last wandered to Charlotte and in the well- bred, critical P. C. maidens she-has found , her victims. ; Tis whispered that her name has been mentioned by her Instructor as that of a “star pianist;” and we are all waiting in breathless suspense to see if in the future she will grace the stage, as an accompanist to Nordica for instance; or instruct guileless musical innocents in “the way they should not go;” or return to Florida to adorn the humble home of her faithful suitor. Sue McKeown, A 0II N Cornwall, S. C. “Taking her all in all, wc shall never look upon her like again.” • I President Gamma Sigma, ’10; First Term Captain Varsity Baseball, ’09; Vice-President Class, TO; Vice-President; Y. W. C. A., TO; Varsity Basketball, ’OT-’OS; Business Manager Basketball, TO; Marshal, ’09; Treasurer Gamma Sigma, ’09; Second Vice-President Student Body, ’09; Secretary Athletic Association, ’08- T0: Y. W.C. A. Cabinet, ’09; Captain Class Basketball, ’OS-’OO, TO; “W. C. E.” TO No doubt the reader has heard much in this same volume of the marvelous achieve- ments of “Sue-babe,” but your eyes have not been gladdened with the soft sight of this prodigy. She entered P. C. four years ago as a Freshman, and such a quiet little Freshman that at first no one knew just how wonderful she really was. She first came before the notice of all, when she won renown in the intercollegiate basket ball game that fall. Ever since that red-letter day she has captured not only all the honors in athletics and in scholarships, but first place in the heart of all the P. C. maidens. Numerous “satellites ” hover around her, but better still, she has won the sincerest and most lasting friendship of all her companions. In her Senior year, she has been voted unanimously, the most influential, the best all-round, and the most sincere girl in college. 18

Florence Jamison, A B Charlotte, N. C. “Her gentle speech and modest ways Left others to accord her praise.” Marshal, ’07; Annual Stair, ’07; Vice-President Gamma Sigma Society, '08; Secretary Gamma Sigma Society, ’09; Vice-President. Gamma Sigma Society, ’10: Historian of Class, HO; Business Manager Annual, HO. One of the girls that P. C. is proud to claim, came within her walls as a dainty little maid in September, ’06. Her sweet disposition makes her beloved by all who know her; she has been voted the neatest girl in school, and since coming here, she has not only drunk deeply of the spring of knowledge, but also distinguished herself as an artist of rare talent. She has showed her ability to study, and in her Senior year she has proved herself a girl of great business capacity by her faithful work as Business Manager of the Edelweiss. Cora Jordan Derita, N. C. “ller look composed and steady eye Hespoke a matchless constancy.” Pierian Literary Society. The old theory that only cities can pro- duce great geniuses has been disproved by this case of one of our Senior pianists, who was born and bred in the country. She has been at P. C. three years, and in this time has become fitted into the regular routine of practise and study, so that in future years when the noise of pianos and organs no longer greets her ears and she cannot go up street twice a week, we fear she will be bored by the quiet country life. But no doubt her future career as a singing- school teacher will furnish variety enough! 17 2

“Elaine, the fair, Elaine the lovable, Elaine, the lily-maid of Astolat.” Editor-in-Chief of Annual, ’10; Vice-President Gam- ma Sigma Society, '09; Treasurer Gamma Sigma Society, TO; Y. W. C. A. Cabinet, TO; Class Prophet, TO; “P,” TO. Where she was born, it matters not; where she will die, it is yet to be determined ; but she has lived, has moved among us; has inspired us by her example; has soothed us by her quiet, restful presence, and has drawn us under her gentle sway. Although her lofty brow bespeaks her giant intellect; though from the long, long, list of honor-rolls, from the first grade to her fair Senior year, her name has never been missing; though the musty books record her wonderful achievements, she is sincerely unconcious of her greatness, and withal is modest and unassuming. • No swirls, no eddies, no loitering obstructs the journey of this lily-maid, as she passes down the river, not of Usk, but of Life. Quietly, evenly and placidly, she floats by us and we smile after her as we say: “E’en her failings leaned to Maud McKinnon, A B , 1 0 II N Charlotte, N. C. virtue’s side.” Annie Louise Parks, G 1 Charlotte, N. C. “Her gentle manners and winning ways made her the friend of all.” Member Pierian Society. Behold our musician! when she plays, a magic spell is cast over us and we are held mute to the last note. In our eyes she is Paderewski’s only rival, and we feel sure that in the course of time we shall hear of Louise as an unsurpassed musician. Besides all her musical talent, she herself is charming and we vote her one of our daintiest and most attractive girls.
