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.

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

S ' rntnr (Class MARGUERITE BROOKS FOGLE Cameron, S. C. Bachel or of Arts “ Here ' s a girl with a heart and a smile, That makes this bubble of life worth while.” You wouldn’t call our gay little Marguerite a flirt, altho her classmates seem to think she is. It’s just that her attractiveness, and striking personality win all who know her. She has many friends in college, and he class of ’21 could have never existed without her.—The an¬ nual, The Magazine, and even “Gym” had a special task for this original sprite. She is ever true through thick and thin to her host of friends, and especially to her otner-self—Mary! Mac” is certainly a wonderful girl in our es¬ timation to he able to keep her many love affairs straight, write as many letters as she does, be foremost in every conversation, and on top of it all “argue” as she does in Ethics. Marguerite, with such sterling qualities as you have, and the ability to do things in the original and delightful way that you have written the Class History, we predict for you a verv successful future, and one that we know- will be full of happiness.
