E P E L WE I S S MAGGIE YORKE HOUSTON, B. M., II A MONROE, N. C. Varsity Basket-Ball Team, 1913-’14; Treasurer Class, 1914-15 “A Bud of Promise As a charmer, Yorke is irresistible, and when it comes to dancing, her sparkling brown eyes keep up with her “light, fantastic toe. 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. EVELYN BOYD, B. M., II A ROANOKE RAPIDS, VA. Vice-President Class, 1913-44; Grind Editor of Edelweiss, 1914-’15. “Mrs. Red Pepper ’ Look twice! Don’t be mistaken ! Yon glisten- ing object is not the sun but only “Snippy’s’’ crown of glory. Her hair is no brighter than her disposition, and she goes around gladdening the hearts of all, ever being the center of a merry group. Her witty sayings and ability to mimic always make her attractive and entertaining. Besides these gifts, perhaps the greatest is her musical talent, as “her very foot has music in't as she comes up the stair.

E P ELWEISS KATHERINE McDONALD, B. A., II A CHARLOTTE, N. C. Varsity Basket-Ball, 1913-T4; Critic of Pierian Delta Society, 1913-T4 and 1914-T5. “The Lift lest Rebel'’ Although Katty,” of diminutive stature, occu- pies little space in the world, yet she holds a prominent place in the thoughts of her fellow- students. Katherine’s greatest gift, her argumen- tative power, is unlimited, and whether gaining her point or not, she always exercises her woman’s privilege of having the last word. She is a law unto herself,” and does what she pleases, regardless of the opinion of others; for her motto is, Be yourself, and leave custom to the fools who need it.” ASHBY HERRON, B. A., II A CHARLOTTE, N. C. President Class, 1911-12; Athletic Editor of Edelweiss, 1913-'14; President Pierian Delta Society, 1914-15; Lawyer, 1914-’15. “A Person of Some Importance A tall, handsome girl, who walks with an athletic swing and an independent air. 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” !! Although a typical girl of the twentieth century, from many appear- ances we sometimes think she belongs to B. C.” 25

E V E LWE I S MARGARET BARNETTE NEWELL, B. M., IT A NEWELL, N. C. Supervisor Pierian Delta Society, 1912-13; V. W. C. A. Cabinet, 1913-T4; Treasurer Y. W. C. A., 1914-’15; Treasurer Pierian Delta Society, 1913-44 and ’15; Cheer Leader, 1914-45; Club Editor Edelweiss, 1914-45; Annual Member of Student Department of Y. W. C. A. “Peg o’ My Heart” When in trouble and in need of help apply to Margaret Newell, the friend of all, usually found in the library or conservatory. Margaret is an enthusiastic Y. W. C. A. worker and a loyal “Pie,” even though she does often leave before the meeting is over; however, we excuse her, as she generally returns with a beaming countenance and a huge box of candy. 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.
