Bachelor of Arts “Loyal hearted, strong of mind, A finer girl you’ll nowhere find” Straight as a reed stands she, so fair, one’s first thought is that surely she grew and blos¬ somed over night in the quaint old gardens of Chicora. Engage her in conversation and you will learn of fiery ambitions, lofty ideals, and a conscience which invariably guides her aright. Mattie Sligh excels in many things but we all agree that in history she has few peers; in fact, she has a read affection for the subject, and, if you are so fortunate as to know her well, she might confide to you what she intends to be her future work—years, perhaps, spent in the impart¬ ing of her wonderful knowledge to others (in¬ terspersed with an occasional, quiet hour de¬ voted to Harper’s). No doubt, she will do this well, as she does everything else, however, her most intimate friends hint of an interruption in these carefully-laid plans. We wonder what it can be? Page Twenty-three

Senior (Elaaa JOSEPHINE BOOZER Newberry, S. C. Bachelor of Arts “Far may we search before we find A heart so noble and so kind.” Josephine came to us as a day pupil her first year, consequently few of us knew her intimately but all of us know of her ability in Math and looked up to her as the genius of our class. As she has been in the dormitory for the past three years we have learned to admire her for her dignity and sincerity. A friend in need is a friend indeed.” This is the feeling of every one toward Boozy” for she is always willing to lend a helping hand to those in need. She has been an especially bright Bible stu¬ dent and takes part in all of the Christian activities. Boozy says she is going to continue her study in Bible—we wonder if the C. E. of which we have so often heard her speak means Christian Endeavor or Civil Engineering. Palladian Literary Society, Athletic Association, Y. W. C.

HELEN CLAIRE BRUTON Columbia, S. C. Bachelor of Art “Still to reveal her artful wiles She stole the Grace ' s silken smiles .” The class of ’21 is lucky to have a girl like Helen to graduate in it. Her college career embodies the spirit which we call nothing sec¬ ond best”. She has conclusively proven her abil¬ ity as a musician, and also on the athletic field, for she is numbered among the members of the “winsome varsity”. She converses fluently upon matrimonial adventures, and we hope that she will not be as late for her wedding as she is for her eight-forty classes. Her happy dispo¬ sition and perseverance will undoubtedly make her a success in the world and an example to which we may point and safely feel that the ideals of the campus are being put into prac¬ tice there.
