Only on the high, steep mountain sides does it grow; there it lives, hardy and strong, lifting its face into the cold, crisp air. Although it is not a beautiful flower, and has no fragrance, yet how often it has brought joy to the mountain climber, who, when he sees it, knows that he is nearing the summit of the mountain. So for years it has been a custom for tourists who climb the Alps to bring back this little flower as a proof of their prowess and as a reward of their labor and toil. So our annual is called the “Edelweiss” because, like the white flower, it is a reward for our weary labor and toil in trying to climb the mountain of success. And though of course our book is not perfect—like the white flower, without beauty and fragrance—still, as the little.snow blossom brings gladness to the hearts of the Alpine climbers, so this little book brings joy to the hearts of the toilers and makes us feel that our efforts have been worth while.

Planted in college soil; It spread its roots in its own poor way With labor and with toil. Its struggles proved successful at last, For ere a year rolled round As a Sophomore plant in the cold winter blast It pushed through the frozen ground. The Junior leaves before long were seen, They had unfolded fresh and fair; Unfolded with their tendrils green, Like emeralds large and rare. In June a little bud burst forth, Half-blown and blushing there it stood— A Senior ready to blossom forth Into ideal womanhood. M. B.

Without any ceremony she walked straight into our hearts, and her own heart was hig enough to take us all in. Her thoughtfulness of others and her sincere, straightforward manner have won her hosts of friends among the girls. Sue’s popularity is attested by the fact that at the end of her first year with us she was elected president of the Senior Class. However, neither this nor the many honors which have come to her unsought have turned her head, for she stoutly maintains, “I had rather he in love than anything.” MARGARET LOUISE YOUNG, B. A., II A CHARLOTTE, N. C. Assistant Business Manager Edelweiss, 1913- '14; Business Manager Edelweiss, 1914-T5. “The Pilot,} Stop! Look! Listen! The wonder of the Senior Class is now before you. Louise, with her brilliant mind, has always headed the roll of honor, and is destined to be a leader in whatever she undertakes. Her executive ability and inter- est in everything pertaining to the welfare of the college has made her indispensable. Always accommodating and thoughtful of others, she is truly a friend in need. 18 E P E L WEI S S MARY SANDERS HOWELL, B. A., II A CHARLOTTE, N. C. President Class, 1913-T4; Historian Class, 1914- 15; Vice-President Pierian Delta Society. “Sense and Sensibility In every class there stand out a few girls who arc horn leaders, and “Sanders” is one of these. She is a girl whom all students admire, upon whom the faculty rely, and whose departure from Queens will leave a large vacancy. She is always in good spirits, very enthusiastic, and liberally endowed with good looks. But of all her gifts, the greatest is her conversational powers—for only on rare occasions does she allow that tongue to cease! With such splendid abilities, we predict that the future holds for our classmate whatsoever she may demand. MARY WILLIAMS CARSON, B. A., II A CHARLOTTE, N. C. Secretary and Treasurer Class, 1910-T1; Presi- dent Class, 1911-,12. Love y Mary We love her, not only for “her smile, her look, and her way,” but for her sincerity, which is one of her strongest traits. With her charming per- sonality and sweet simplicity, Mary has made many friends during her college days. Not that her admirers are confined to Queens alone; indeed, sometimes we become alarmed at what seems to be a chronic state of “heart trouble.” However, we have come to the conclusion that this is caused by mere “passing fancies.” We might say quite a deal more about Mary, but we do not want to spoil so sweet a child. 19 E P E L WE I S S ELLA MOSELEY, 1!. A., r 2 CHARLOTTE, N. C. Assistant Hditor-in-Chief, 1914-15; President Gamma Sigma Society, 1914-'15. “A Lady of Quality” Ella is one of the few members of our class who has not been nicknamed, probably because she’s so “Ella-vated” and dignified. She is not like other girls in that she professes to hate boys and says she’s not afraid of mice. She has a logical mind, for did not “Or. Jimmy” himself once say that she “deserved a feather in her cap”! Endowed with good looks, musical talent, unusual mental ability, and practical sense, she is indeed fortunate—this petite maiden. JANE CARVER JOHNSON, B. A., II A CHARLOTTE, N. C. Secretary Class, 1914-’15: Assistant Business Manager of Edelweiss, 1914-M5; Intersociety Debater, 1914-’15. Her Majesty Here, readers, is a girl who can when she wants to—who does when she has to—hut who doesn’t because she likes to. Tall and stately Jane, with her poise and maidenly reserve, lias commanded admiration from all during her sojourn at Queens College. She is rather strong- willed, and, once convinced of a fact, takes her stand as a stone wall and heeds not the argu- ments of her classmates. Perhaps there’s more truth than poetry in the following little rhyme: “Who’s so fair, who’s so rare As Miss Jane Johnson? Her intellect clear, she knows no fear. And she herself is a downright dear.” 20 E P ELWEIS ANNE ALEXANDER GRAHAM, TL A., F 2 CHARLOTTE, N. C. Grind Editor Edelweiss, 1914-'15; Inter- society Debater, 1914-15. “IL u Wisdom Did you hear that racket in Senior Study Hall? Well, you can be sure that Anne's there, and that it’s her ridiculous remarks and absurd “carryings on” that has caused the commotion. Having a cheery disposition, a laugh that’s infectious, and a keen sense of humor, naturally she’s always in demand. As for her views concerning matrimony, she leaves us in no doubt, but very emphatically declares that she's tired of writing “Miss Anne Graham. When we look back and realize how much joy she has added to our college days, with deep feeling we say, “ 1 less her heart. MARTHA LOUISE JAMISON, L . A., II A CHARLOTTE, N. C. Junior Literary Editor Edelweiss, 1913-’14: Editor-in-Chief Edelweiss, 1914-'15; Intersociety Debater, 1914-’15. “Our Mutual Friend A “Martha,” as we know, is ofttimes “cum- bered with many cares. and this Martha, as Editor-in-Chief of the Annual with its thousand and one petty duties, is no exception to the rule. Howeyer, she keeps her head, takes it seriously, and yet comes out of it all, the same happy Martha. Her energy and enthusiasm are conta- gious, so naturally her very presence will always make things go.” Tactful and winsome in her manner, Martha is a wholesome, genuine type of the Southern college girl at Queens. E P ELWEI S S FLORA BELLE PORTER, B. A., r 2 CHARLOTTE, N. C. “My Lady Caprice A nice fat child with a cheerful disposition and a tip-tilted nose—that’s Flora. She’s a faithful worker, a thorough optimist, and one of the most likeable girls of our class. Her name shows her position in the social world, and, like “Abou Ben Adhem,” we put her down as ‘‘a lover of her fellow men. KATHERINE WHITFIELD KENDRICK, B. A., II A CHARLOTTE, N. C. “What Katie Did! Attention, girls, Kate’s going to speak! Listen ! for you know she has something important to say. A great change has been wrought in Kate— before the statistics were taken she had more to say than any girl at Queens, but now her words are rare and few and far between. She’s an expert at getting around the faculty, and we all know it takes brains to be a good bluffer. All joking aside, Kate is a line “old girl,” with a big heart and a generous hand. 22 E P E L WE I S S MARY YORKE JOHNSTON, B. A., II A EXPRESSION GRADUATE CHARLOTTE, N. C.

She is enthusiastic and thoroughly interested in the col- lege, and, although a good student, seldom do we see her in a serious mood—not even a logic test disturbs the even tenor of her way. As the president of the student body she has shown her efficiency and ability, and we feel that she is a fair representative of 1915’s best. JULIA HARRIS, B. A., II A CHARLOTTE, N. C. Treasurer Class, 1913-T4; Vice-President Class, 1914-T5; Prophet Class, 1914-45. “The Well Beloved” Julia is the most dignified of all the dignified Seniors. Her power of concentration is envied, especially by the members of Senior Study Hall, and the result of this is plainly seen on recita- tion, when she answers questions that fairly daze the rest of us. In spite of her seeming reserve, there often arises in her a sense of the ridiculous so keen that she even enjoys a joke on herself. Although thoroughly surprising, Dame Rumor has it that Julia, upon leaving the guardianship of Queens College, will be one of the first to enter the state of matrimony.- 23 E P E L WE I S S ETHEL TROTTER, B. A., n A CHARLOTTE, N. C. 'Happy-Go-Lucky” Yes, she has an abundance of curls, and they are every one natural, too! When this little curly-haired girl first entered college, we soon discovered that she was one of the few who possessed a psychological mind, and although slow to anger, when aroused she will give you a piece of the same. Ethel is a born housekeeper, and gifted in culinary arts: and, as this is a very effective way of reaching a young man’s heart, we feel that her fate is sealed. WILLIAM VASHTI HOGGARD, B.

Yes, Vashti rarely worries, and, in spite of her historical work, finds time to take a prominent part in athletics. Indeed, she is happiest and at her best when she has a basket- ball tight under her arm ! The radiance of her hair is reflected in her bright disposition, which is not weighed down even by Ethics, hut ever bubbles up in a way that wins all hearts. 24 E P ELWEISS KATHERINE McDONALD, B.

She is popular with all the girls, but especially is she dear to the Pies.” Yet, strange to say, this dignified Senior often forgets her high position and stoops to angelizing” !!

Too full of life to spend much time on books, nevertheless, by her quick insight and cleverness, she manages to come out with flying colors. As an athlete, she is one of the best, and always displays true sports- manship. Whatever may be Yorke’s future, she carries with her our best wishes for success in life—and of course in love.

In spite of being a con- scientious worker for that terrible B. M., she always finds time to be a good old sport. HESTER WHITE, English Certificate HARTFORD CITY, IND. “The Girl of the Golden West” Hester, by her quaint speech, proclaims herself a typical Westerner; yet her winning smile and gentle manner have endeared her to her Southern classmates. Being an ardent follower of fashion, 11 ester always makes a favorable impression; the most striking feature of her appearance is her bright blue eyes shining under her stylishly tilted hat. Possessing a strong will and plenty of self- confidence, she will, in our opinion, ever succeed. E P E L WE I $ S Cl )t opage of Clje j notoletjge Iferefcer (HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1915) HE tidal wave of September, 1911, swept out on the Sea of Learn- ing a class of girls, with tear-dimmed eyes, who were finally beginning to realize that they had left their homes to be launched in the midst of the sea for four long years. o After the first few stormy weeks of classification and home- sickness were over, the barge of girls sailed on a smooth sea until the whirlpools of mid-term exams were reached. The struggle was a hard one, but our boat was steered by the hands of our capable president to the safe, smooth-sailing waters of the second semester. Then in the distance a little dark spot appeared, proving to be an island, which was as welcome to us as an oasis to a desert traveler. This was the first stop our boat. The Knowledge Seeker, had made, and the name of the port was “Annual Reception.'1 The night spent there was very pleasant, and, by the assistance of Dan Cupid, lasting acquaintances were formed. The following morning, with backward glances we set sail and continued our way. While drifting peacefully along, we were overtaken by a steamer, and recognized among the passengers on board our old friend, St. Valentine. At our invitation, he transferred his passage to our boat and attended the party which we gave that night to our sister class, the Juniors. We enjoyed his visit extremely, but he was obliged to return to his ship at midnight, very much to the sorrow of all concerned. Our ship was carried by favorable winds very swiftly over the peaceful sea, but soon a dark cloud appeared and a fearful storm raged for several days. This was the critical week of final exams, and some of our weaker classmates fell overboard and were lost in spite of all our efforts to save them. Time passed, and soon we were no longer Freshmen, but had sailed out into the deep sea of the Sophomore year. The places of those who had been lost in the waves were filled by quite a number of new girls, who joined us at several of the ports along the way. By this time we had become accustomed to the trials and tribulations which must he endured by those who board The Knowledge Seeker, and the year went by a little more rapidly than the pre- 28 E P E L WEI S S ceding one. It was now our turn to help initiate the new girls into the experiences of sea life, and of course this year was most enjoyable to us, for we felt that we were getting revenge for what we had suffered the year before. Nothing of great importance happened, however, until a few of our number left The Knowledge Seeker for Pleasure's Quest, attending for several days the exercises given by the Junior ('lass of Davidson College. On their return wonderful tales of adventure were told. The remainder of the year proved uneventful until the ship dropped anchor at a port called “Commencement. A very enjoyable summer was spent in this town, and all too soon the news was spread abroad that 'The Knowledge Seeker was about to set sail. Once again we were almost overwhelmed by the wave of homesickness, but our courage was renewed by the report that our voyage was halfway over. In the distance we could see the flying pennants of the Senior ('lass waving over their ship, which was nearing the goal. A wireless was sent to them by the pilot of The Knowledge Seeker inviting them to stop with us at the next port to see Henrietta Crossman in “The Tongues of Men. A prompt reply was received, and a very pleasant evening was spent at the port “Theater.” It was quite necessary after this dissipation for every one to seek “Study most earnestly, for exams must be passed if the voyage were to he continued. However, the monotony was soon broken by visits to us of both the Davidson and Carolina Glee Clubs. Several parties for our own amusement were given on board the ship, but hard work was the pre- dominant feature for the remainder of the time. At length the boat in front of us was seen to have reached its destination, and our vessel, with flying colors, was borne rapidly onward over a calm sea. We had at last reached the much-longed-for port, “Seniorland, and here we obtained the caps and gowns which every one wears upon reaching this port. The rough places in the sea were by no means all crossed, but we had become so used to them that we could pass them with ease. The end and aim of our ambitions was in sight, and ere long the goal will have been reached. It was not long until every one of us had become accustomed to her place of honor and dignity, and a greater feeling of responsibility was realized than ever before. And now as the vessel is nearing its destination, joy and sorrow intermingle, for with the fulfilment of hope comes also the sadness of approaching farewells. So time brings the storm-tossed ship over the sea of learning to the harbor “Safety amid many good wishes and congratulations. M. S. H., Historian. E P E L WE I S S Class ;Prop1)tcp June 7, 1920. Dear Sue: Once more the Class of '15 gathered around the table in the dining-room of our old Alma Mater, and it hardly seemed the same place, for instead of the rolls and syrup that we used to have, a very elaborate luncheon was served, and we were the guests of honor. You can never imagine what a great pleasure it was to see those dear old girls again after five years of separation, and the only thing that marred our happiness was that you, our beloved president, could not be there and preside over us as usual. However, we talked of your work in far-away China, thinking how truly fortunate were those little Chinese. Although five years seem short, yet you must hear of the many changes which have taken place. “Miss Newton, as we will always call her, although of course you know she’s “Miss Newton no longer, was seated at the head of the table as master of ceremonies. In her sweet way she welcomed us and suggested that each tell what these years had brought forth. First, Mary Carson, blushing as she used to do, told of her romantic marriage to a prominent New York banker, and how extremely happy she was. Then Ashbv, her face showing signs of study, spoke very interestingly of her surgical work at Johns Hopkins. For two years Mary Yorke had been star in popular plays, but had found more happiness in making the hard life of a country doctor easier. You, like all the rest, would scarcely have known the next: Gowned in a most stylish and handsome attire was Kate, now a designer of fashions for Vogue. Katherine, so used to standing when speaking—now a lecturer for the cause of Woman Suffrage—was very anxious to make us a “stump speech. However, Evelyn, being a more persistent talker, insisted on telling us that she was teaching Economics— would you believe it?—in Agnes Scott College. Martha, all rosy and fat, came rushing in at this time and insisted on apologizing for her tardiness caused by a breakdown of her brand-new Ford. She lives about three miles from the city and seems utterly absorbed in her farmer, chickens, and Ford. Mary Sanders has become quite famous as a writer of scenarios. I also E P E L WE I S S hear she has made quite a success financially. Turning in that quick way so characteristic of her, she seized Ella by the hand and introduced her as heroine of her stories. Of course we all recognized Ella as the “Venus of the Movies.” In a very Frenchy gown, Vashti laughingly told how, while studying French in Paris, her heart had been won by a marquis. Flora as yet has not been persuaded to give up the gaiety of social life, but is still in the whirl and looks as young as ever. Maggie Yorke told of her study of music and of her experiences in concert tours. I suppose you’ve heard of her wonderful success. As for Anne, she was the greatest surprise of all. Dressed in “widow's weeds,” but with a countenance not corresponding with the same, she said, in that funny way, that her good looks had got her one husband, and that she firmly believed that they could get her another. Jane frowned very disapprovingly at Anne and told in a serious and earnest way of her great work in social service in Chicago. Louise, whom we all expected to have such a splendid career, two years ago gave up all thoughts of that and is now the busy wife of a Presbyterian minister. Most interestingly, Margaret gave some points on the Y. W. C. A. work to which she devotes her entire time. Hester, much to our surprise, married the year after leaving school, and has been leading a most strenuous life since. We could guess, when our eyes turned to Ethel, what she had been doing these five years. In a white dress and cap, she rose and said that she was now very busy as head nurse of the Charlotte Sanatorium. And will you be surprised when 1 tell you that I am exactly what I told you I was going to he five years ago—an old-maid school-teacher ? We had a wonderful time reminiscing, and wandered over the buildings, seeking familiar haunts. Every spot brought up old memories, and all too soon the time came to say good-bye. However, we resolved to have a reunion again next year, and we sincerely hope you’ll be with us then. The girls join me in love. With best wishes for success in your work From your old classmate, Julia Harris. 31 £ P £ LW £ 1 S S Senior Class poem O Alma Mater, fair to see, A fond farewell we sing to thee! We sadly leave old friends grown dear. And those we've known for many a year. From Queens and friends we now must part We say farewell with aching heart. The ties of years to-day we break, Yet know whatever path we take. Still through the distance we shall feel Thy tender memories o’er us steal: Thy hand shall guide though miles may part; Thy memory live in each true heart. So now we pledge our all to thee— Our work, our life, whate’er it he. M. B. 32 E P E L WE I S S Cf)t Bap Wit jftrst TOore Cur Caps anti Cotons E shall never forget that clay in the autumn when we first wore our caps and gowns. It was on a Sunday morning, and even now we remember those strange feelings that stirred us. We walked down the aisle, our Oxford robes floating behind us, our hands lost in the folds of the sleeves, and turning neither to the right nor the left for fear our caps might get the “stylish tilt” rather than that prim, prissy angle of the truly academic. We felt that we were the cynosure of all eyes, and dignity sat heavily upon us. Did the wind whistle cold up the flowing sleeves? By no means, for pride knows neither heat nor cold. Oh ! the voluminous dignity of that robe. Yet we felt that we had earned this distinguished garb— per aspera ad astra. Sometimes we thought one English test almost merited a cap, though the marks on the same might indicate that a fool's cap should be our portion! However, time has passed since that Sunday and we have become accustomed to wearing this robe of dignity. The feeling of awkwardness has passed away, but the feel- ing of distinction steadily increases as we realize that we are at last worthy to be called Seniors. And now it is only a short time till that glad clay in June when, for the last time, we shall don the robes which we have learned to wear with so much ease, and shall receive the reward for our labor and toil. Then, with a feeling of sadness, we shall lay aside forever the insignia of our honor, but never shall we forget the happy though somewhat uncomfortable day when we first wore our caps and gowns. E. T. “I, Senior” |I seen you] 33 Every Student’ —Senior Play ELWBI S S 2Ust TOtll auto Cestammt State of North Carolina, Mecklenburg County, City of Charlotte, Queens College June 2, 1915 We, the Class of 1915, of the aforesaid state, county, city, and college, having withstood the many changes in the faculty, in the standard, and in o o J 1 the situation of the school; having for many years borne the heavy burdens thrust upon us; having set the example of loyalty, honor, and dignity to the underclassmen; and having recited every lesson because of the vision of four points constantly before us, do now declare ourselves of sound mind and body in spite of these trials and tribulations; therefore, we make and ordain this to be our last will and testament. First. That our dean, Miss Ella Young, shall always hold as a shining light before the underclassmen and all who enter the walls of Queens College, the Class of 1915. Second. Unto Dr. Caldwell we give innumerable thanks for securing these much-talked-of new buildings with modern conveniences, such as the long mirrors, cabinet dressers, window seats, etc., and the equally talked of location in Myers Park. Third. To the faculty we return and will all the clippings, warnings, and zeros, to be showered upon the future classes. Fourth. To the rising Seniors we leave the chilly, stoical atmosphere which floats through the Ethics room. Fifth. To the Class of 1916 .we will and give a beautifully furnished Senior study hall, provided they do not scratch or mar the chairs, spill water or food on the velvet carpet, or abuse it in any way. Sixth. The airs and conceited characteristics of the so-called “stuck ups” we do will and bequeath to Nannette Blalock. Seventh. The ability and most wonderful talkative power of Kate Kendrick we do give to Eva McCallum, provided she will be very careful not to abuse the authority. Eighth. All of the brightness of Mary Sanders we do will and bequeath to the chosen few in English. E L WE I S S Ninth. The cap and gown of Katherine McDonald, who is sometimes called the mascot, we do give Shasta Abernathy, to lie worn just as it is. Tenth. Hester’s knack for hearing and learning everything that goes on we do give to Sara Wooten, provided she will only state the beginning of what she knows, just as the former usually does. Eleventh. The indolence of Martha, which she displayed while work- ing on the annual, we do will and give to Mary Janet Johnson. Twelfth. The luck of Mary Carson we do give to Corinne, Elizabeth, Mattie, Annie, and Dorothy, to be kept in their little bunch all their college days. Thirteenth. The affections of Mary Yorke, which are showered on Ellen Finley, we do give to Ruth Mason to be lavished upon Sara Wooten. Fourteenth. The Seniors’ spare time we do will and bequeath to Katherine Redwine to use in going to the doctor. Fifteenth. The sweet disposition of Sue we leave in the college for the rest of the girls to enjoy. Sixteenth. The business ability of Louise we do leave to the rising Business Manager. Seventeenth. All of the regrets and tears lost on leaving this beauti- ful, well-equipped, and stately place we do will and bequeath to the future classes to display when they have completed their so-called happiest days. Eighteenth. All of our best wishes and hopes we leave to the college, hoping some day that it will be an “A” college. In witness whereof, this will has been drawn by me with the full consent of the Class of 1915. A. H.

E P ELWEI S S 3untor History CHRONICLES OF THE CLASSES OF QUEENS COLLEGE Chapter 20 1. Now it came to pass in the fifty- seventh year of Queens College, in the ninth month and the twentieth day of the month, that the children of 1916 went out and the congregation was gathered to- gether as one man from the north even to the south. 2. Now after they had been gathered to- gether, there came a great flood upon that land and it rained forty days and forty nights. 3. But after the wind of homesickness had passed over,-the waters were assuaged and the sun came out and shone upon the face of the earth. 4. Now during these days the children of ’16 began to array themselves against the children of Knowledge because the children of Knowledge sought them an inheritance among the tribe of ’16. 5. And this enemy sent out of their num- ber five men from their coast, men of valour, Mathematics, English, French, His- tory, and Latin, to spy out the children of '16 of the house of College and to over- come them. 6. Then for nine months there was war throughout the land, and the children of T6 went out against their enemy and pitched in the valley of Examination and there fought. 7. And the children of Knowledge were smitten and there was great slaughter; but many were slain among the ranks of the children of ’16 and there was great mourn- ing in the camp. 8. Then peace reigned in the land for three months, and the children of '16 re- turned each one to her tent. Chapter 21 1. In the second year of the reign of the Class of 1916 were they delivered into the hands of Knowledge, and great was their oppression, because King Mathematics oppressed them. 2. But the children of T6 went out, and by the help of the tribe Faculty overcame their enemies and slew many of the hosts of Knowledge. 3. And Sophomore slept with her fathers, and they buried her, and peace was throughout the land. 4. And it was so during these days that when they saw there was need of more room they gave their plans into the hands of the builders to build a new house for Queens College; they laid it out to car- penters and builders that wrought upon this house. 5. This was the stronghold set up in the wilderness for the defense of the children of T6. 6. And now new kings of the tribe of Knowledge rose up against the Sixteenites, Psychology, of the tribe of Philosophy, and Chemistry, of the tribe of Science. 7. But during the reign of Junior, the children of 1916 set themselves in battle array against these kings and they fought from dawn to the setting of the sun. 8. And the children of 16 overcame the tribes of Knowledge and destroyed them and made them like the dust by threshing. 9. And the Junior slept with her fathers and the children of T6 turned their faces toward the land of Senior. 10. And the rest of the acts of the children of ’16 and all their might where- with they fought against the tribes of Knowledge, are they not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Classes of Queens College?

E P E L WE I S S fltstorp of tije opftomore Class OES it not seem strange that some in last year’s Sophomore Class loved the name Sophomore so well that they entered under the new curriculum this term that they might not have to give it up? Yes, I confess it does seem strange, or did at the first of the year, but after we see how well the entire band of girls works together, and what a strong class it is in every respect, we feel that one day we will be even more proud than we now are that we belonged to the Class of 1917. Among the many things which have distinguished us this year are the three highest averages for the fall semester. Think of one class carrying off all the honors of the school! Not only are we noted for our intellectual ability, but also for our athletic accomplishments. Out of the nine members of the Varsity Basket-Ball Team, four are Sophomores. Our class also takes an active part in the work of the societies. Some of the officers and most loyal workers of both societies are members of '17. These are only a few of the accomplishments of this noted class, and we feel and know that neither the world nor the college could get along without us Sophomores. E. R., T7, Historian. “Behind the Scene� ” E P E L WE I S S Cf)ose opftomorts!! The Freshmen (bless their baby hearts!) Are so young and so very dear That all the school pets them—each one— And dries away each tear. The Juniors (they work so well!) Surely deserve some reward, So privileges are bestowed upon them, By the faculty, with one accord. The Seniors (dignified and wise!) The whole school does revere, And not one word of blame about them Do you ever hear! O Sophomores (wretched tribe!), That old adage must be true— “Heigh diddle diddle, the fool’s in the middle,” Surely applies to you. 0 reader fair, lest you do not know Of the degradation of this class, 1 want you to peruse a number of things, And give your verdict, alas! i First, please glance at the varsity team. “Any Sophomores?” Oh, yes, a few. How do they play? Just watch a game And you’ll easily see how they do. The Honor Roll’s posted on the bulletin-board; This month there are three on the roll, But of course there aren't (?) any Sophomores— You really needn't be told. We’ll admit it, we’re gay; we just have to be To make up for the way that they treat us; But take it from me—and it’s easy to see— That in nothing at all can they beat us! So please lift your hats to this wonderful class, Which surpasses in athletics and knowledge; We can not be beat, we’ve known no defeat, We’re the champion class of the college. Then let them speak of us as they like— They’ve done it often before— But, all the same, we love the name, That slandered name—Sophomore! E. H.

In the latter part of September, 1913, the Freshmen first came together, a class of twenty-four. Throughout the year we met with many difficulties and discouragements; however, we plodded steadily along, and had the satisfaction of conquering in the end. But alas! we already knew the calamity which was to befall us the follow- ing year. When we assembled again, in the autumn of 1914, after a long summer’s vacation, the standard of the college had been raised, and we were once more called “Freshmen! We should have grieved very deeply indeed had it not been for the fact that the school had just moved into the new buildings at Myers Park, and our minds were diverted by many pleasing novelties. Part of our number did not return, but as their places were filled, in a measure, by the new girls who joined our ranks, our grief for our lost members was somewhat alleviated. So our journey has been hard and long, very long, for no class ever before had the honor of bearing the name of “Freshman for two years. And now, although disappointment may await us again, we are still toiling earnestly, and hope by the end of this year's journey to reach the longed-for haven of Sophomore Land. Already we seem to hear, as sweet music to our ears: “Where, oh, where are the gay young Freshmen? Where, oh, where are the two-year Freshmen? Where, oh, where are the dauntless Freshmen? Safe now in the Sophomore Class. V. N., Historian.

The number of members enrolled this session is larger than in any previous year, and most of them have proved earnest and enthusiastic workers in the Association. he weekly meetings on Sunday evenings are unusually well attended, and the “good-night” prayer-meetings held in each dormitory every evening are a source of help to the girls. Then, on Sunday mornings, two Mission Study classes, with the purpose of broadening the interests of the girls, are conducted by members of the faculty. Nine of our members had the pleasure of representing Queens College at the Blue Ridge Conference last June. Also, the Association was fortunate in being chosen as one of the ten college associations to be represented at the annual meeting of the Student Department of the South Atlantic Field. As the college continues to grow, we are led to hope that the Association may become stronger and more able to further its aim, “to bring every girl to Christ, to build her up in Christ, to send her out for Christ.” L.

And round thy banners, blue and blue, A faithful host is seen, True to their honor, true to you— Our Mother and our Queen.

The Athletic Association was divided into two parts, the “Purples” and the “Yellows,” and there was a loving-cup offered to the side winning the most points. One of our most popular sports for the fall was roller- skating, and there was much rivalry between the two colors, which made these skating contests all the more interesting. In the final contest points were given for skill, speed, and grace. But as the winter came on, we began giving all our attention and time to the joy of the basket-ball field. We are now playing a series of games with the Y. W. C. A., and have been successful so far. We intend soon to play the Charlotte High School. We are not boasting too much when we say that we expect to carry off all the honors, for this year’s varsity is the best that Queens has had in a long time. Although our Athletics is one of the most important and popular phases of our college life, we expect it to be more popular on field day. This is always a red-letter day for the girls, and it is sure to be a success because of the faith, work, and patience the students have shown in practice. M.

I stopped and listened. There had been a faculty meeting the night before and the girls were “up in arms” over some new rule. There were various voices exclaiming indignantly, but suddenly above them all I heard Vashti’s familiar voice: “It’s perfectly outrageous! Why, when I first came over here to college six years ago---------’’ But just here I heard a wail from Flora, begging the girls to get quiet, that she “didn't know a thing. She was seconded in her demand by Ethel and Jane, who just before had been making more fuss than all the others. Mary, who had been laughing gaily, suddenly exclaimed to Flora: “My dear, I don’t know a word of my English. That seemed to remind Ella of the fact that English was the next class, and 1 heard her squeal, and I imagine she suddenly grabbed Flora by the arm. Now on my ear fell this familiar sound : “Girls, you make me tired; why, I have six lessons to-day, and I knew well that that was “Katie’s voice. I walked on and opened the door. Piled on the table were books, hats, lunches, and girls. Pillows were on the floor, and the only chair in the room was upside down. Some of the girls were lounging on the bench, while Kate was parading up and down the room with her left slipper on her right foot and her right one on her left. In the middle of the table stood Anne “taking off several members of the faculty, and, of course, this was the cause of all the laughter. Over in one corner sat “Judy, per- fectly unconscious of the disturbance, reading and absorbing a chapter on “Rent in Economics. Just as I opened the door some one exclaimed: “Oh, look! Immediately all flew to the window—I with the rest. The object which met my gaze was one lone gentleman, very old, who had stepped off the car. 103 M. L. J.

There are soldier-men big and soldier-men little, And they all wear suits of gray, And they have the awfulest-looking swords. And they wear them every day. They have a captain who drills them hard— “Right face!” and we girls grow mute. For we get so very, very scared That the next command'll he “Shoot!” But you’d he really greatly surprised How nice sometimes they can he. And also how glad these girls are when Occasionally these soldiers they see. The girls don’t seem a single bit scared. And they don’t run—and, why. Once I saw a girl smile sweet, Then saw her wink her eye! Yes, many a time there’s a commotion, And some one yells, “What's the sight?” And when I get to the window I see passing a “Hornerite.” Yes, “Queens’ Twin” lives down the road, Just around the bend, Its name is Horner Military School, And it’s full of soldier-men. “Precaution” Im EPELWeiSS Co Hje DtJjer T5ops Now, Readers, lest you think partiality we do show To the Horner boys who by our school do go. We will explain. Some of the girls of old Q. C.—a likely bunch of them— Bestow their fondest thoughts upon the Raleigh Farmer-men. Others do disdain Their choice, and will ever and anon be true To the colors upon their walls, the beautiful white and blue. Oh ! very well yon know In many of their hearts, old D. C. the girls enthrall, And readily do they respond to her “Junior Speaking” call. Their affection the rest bestow Upon Clemson, V. M. L, and the Universities all, And many more whose names I can not call. We wanted you to know. L WE I S S 2Dnljt a Dream This morn I was talking with a student young and gay, Who told me of a dream she had, why, just the other day. While dozing in the study hall a vision came in view— She saw an angel enter in garments white and new. Said the angel, “I’m from Heaven; St. Peter sent me down To bring you up to Glory and give you a golden crown.” The student and the angel started up to Glory’s gate; But as they passed through Hades, the angel murmured, “Wait, We’ve got a place to show you—it's the hottest place at all— There are blazing coals and cinders in this great and awful hall.” And behold ! the student saw there her old teachers by the score. So she sat and simply watched them—she could wish for nothing more. Here it was the angel found her. “Come on, there are wonders yet to see. But the student only answered, “This is Heaven enough for me.” E P E E P ELWEI S S % Selection from t )t Btarp of Coin ti)r Janitor HE tew greek-letter literary societys met and taken in nu membrs; sumhows i never kould kail there names eggsackly. the name ov won ov ’em alwus sounded tew me, az near az i kould ketch it, like sum won waz a-hollerin’ fo' the kook for pie—“Pie, Della! — i heres urn callin’ it. the “Pie, Della haz az its trade mark, “n A.“ The name ov the other society sounds still worse—it sounds like sumbody tellin' there ma that gramma ain’t feelin' good—“Gramma’s Sick, Ma ; this iz the name i here uni callin’ it. the “Gramma's Sick, Ma haz az its trade mark, ‘T 2.” i have seed a passle ov theze girls huddle together in a ring like biddies aroun' the ole mother hen an’ yel out like vittles waz mighty scarce—“Pie, Della!

Miss Newton: “Katherine, what are the uses of petroleum? K. McDonald: Oh! it's used for making those shiny cooking vessels. In zoology class one day a discussion came up as to the location of a clam’s eye. Ella Stagg said: “Well, since its foot comes out of the shell first, I think its eye ought to be on its foot so that it can see where to step. Kate Kendrick, seeing the Hornerites approaching in soldierly array, called to the girls: “Come quick, yonder comes the Infant-ry! Dr. Bridges (during Bible Class) : “Who were the high priests during the life of Christ? Ethel Trotter: “Ananias and Sapphira. Miss Landers: “The people in France think all Americans are rich.

On the corner stood a youthful soldier, bearing on his cap the initials, “H. M. S.” Nannette Blalock, coming in the room, said: “Who are you waving at?” Evelyn: “The baby.” Nannette: “Which one?” Miss Hanna (to one of the gym classes) : “Girls, lift up both feet and raise your arms to the sides.” i Ella, writing a syllogism on the board, spelled truly, t-r-u-e-l-y. Dr. Bridges: “It's very well to spell with ease (e’s), but this is one case when it can’t be done.” Maude Stroup: “I have resolved this year to love all mankind. Miss Newton: “Maude, does mankind embrace women?” Maude: “Oh, yes, ma’am, sometimes they do.” Anne, overhearing some girls discussing historical events, remarked: “I never was very good in history because I couldn’t remember dates, but I alwavs will remember that Columbus discovered America in 1692.” Marv Yorke bought some chewing-gum and very generously distributed it among the girls. Two weeks later Louise saw her chewing violently and said: “Mary Yorke, give me some chewing-gum.” In a disgusted way, Mary Yorke answered: “You gump you, why didn’t you keep yours?” Anne Graham, seeing the Abbott dog about to enter the English class- room, gave it the following counsel: “It’s very well to come over here to college, but let me give you some advice—don’t take that English course,” 131 P ELWEI S S Daisy Belk: “How long does a person live without brains?” Maude Stroup: “I don't know; how old are you?” Miss Newton: “Mattie, what do they call such animals as monkeys that live in the woods?” Mattie: “Why, wood-nymphs.” Oueens College Dictionary (Abridged) Dining Hall.

College Charlotte North Carolina For Catalog and full information, address Dr. John L. Caldwell, President Queens College will always take a special interest in the Class of 1915. It will be known in college history as the first to be graduated from the new college home in Myers Park. With tears of tenderness we send them forth into the world, but with the confident hope that they will make the name of their A tma Mater more splendid by their loyal words and brave achievements. We are comforted that the light will not go entirely out when they leave us. It will be shook and made to shine again next September when another Senior class will take the torch of truth into its hands, and still other classes will respond to the call, “Rise, light, and shine.’’ On September fifteenth, nineteen hun- dred fifteen, the college hopes to extend a warm welcome to many girls whose desire and purpose it is to become highly educated, queenly women.

It has to last longer than clothing; it is seen by more people than jewelry; it cannot be changed yearly like dec- orations. People go a long ways toward judging you by your furniture; we know you judge us by the furniture you buy from us.
