We beg to con¬ test that for truly the Gods were good to Nannell. They must have planned her in detail— they were so accurate. The first thing they gave her was beauty, and when she was chosen as the prettiest girl in school no one was surprised. Then follow an innumerable list of enviable traits. If we want to see a real basketball game, we go to one in which Nannell takes part; and if we want to see some spectacular jumping—we watch Nannell during track season. Nannell has other virtues. She is no one’s “dumb bell.’ She makes ijuite a showing as a young intellect¬ ual, and her frequent visits to town prove that she does not study all the time. Nannell has still other enviable traits. She has popularity. Tier rare combination of fun, frankness, sin¬ cerity and friendliness has won her a place in the hearts of every girl — but sad news young men! alas, she is already “Stamped!” Twenty-Four

This description might lead you to think that Agnes never has time to worry about her own troubles and to tell the truth she does not find very much time. But Agnes has one very serious perplexity, and the only so¬ lution we see for it is to take a trip to “The Land of the Rising Sun.” Agnes, “the top of the morning to you.” AGNES BLAKE, B.A. Anderson, S.

m l n ■ f ■ ) M s $ s Those of us who can claim Laura as our friend are indeed fortunate, because if she likes some one, she does; but if she doesn’t—well you had just better look out, that’s all. She is like an Indian in that respect. Anyone that knows Laura at all has heard all about her frequent week-end visits to Clinton—and we have found out the attraction is not the town alone. “To see her is lo love her. To love but her forever. For nature made her what she is. And never made another! LAURA NELSON BOYD. B.A. Creeleyville, S. C.

This is where she leads us all. In her Fresh¬ man year she won the scholarship medal, and she has never broken her good record since that time. Possibly, however, we are laying too much stress upon her scholastic standing, for we all know that Laura is fond of a good time as well as any of us. Loving, cheerful, studious, honest, capable, and kind—that‘s Laura. When we need advice or help of any kind, we always know where to find it, because Laura is ever ready and willing to lend a helping hand. Twenty-Five
