MARY BRI TON, Expression COLUMBIA, S. C. “Come and trip it as you go, On the light fantastic toe.” Nickname: - Favorite Saying: ‘ Oh I did know that.” It took us only a short time to discover her remarkable talent for Expression, and every play presented by this department finds our handsome Mary as ‘ leading man.” Her Shy- lock and Petrucio made her famous, but her acting as other characters was equally as clever. Mary boarded in the College the first half of her Sophomore year, and in that time won for herself many warm friends. But we scarcely ever see her now, since her family has moved to Columbia and she and Louise have been caught up in the social whirl. If there is no bridge party on hand or she has no other en¬ gagement, she is liable to meet her classes.

Alt ho ' some may hold that only “sports” are popular, and she is certainly not of this type, show us a girl in school who has more friends than our .Margaret. Wholly unselfish and absolutely sincere, she numbers her friends by her acquaintances, and has a ready sympathy for every one and everything. Her chief interest lies in the Y. W. C. A. and she leads you around so nicely that you almost think there is “someone’s” strong arm guiding you thru the mists of darkness into light. “Marget” gives us new inspiration with her nice big “ha-ha” that we always hear pealing forth. A skilled artist and a devotee to her work, she has done much in making “Nods and Becks possible.

LOUISE BRUTON, A. B. COLl MBIA, S. C. “0 constancy , thou art indeed a jewel” Nickname: “Brut.” Favorite Saying: “Oh. I’m so thrilled.” In the first year of C. C. F. W. s existence Louise came to us from the ‘‘Old North State. Frequent are her references to Fayetteville and Greensboro College for Women, which she at¬ tended before coming to us. Louise is a jolly fellow well met. ' and has a smile or a laugh for everybody, except when she has had an occasional encounter with Mary Bruton. For a long time we thought that Louise had left her heart in the Land of the Long Leaf Pine, but she has almost persuaded us to believe that it is “Somewhere in South Carolina, and we are afraid it will soon be Somewhere in France.” Member of Kratian Literary Society: Y. W. C. A., and Athletic Association 1915-’16; ice- President of Class 1915-16.
