There were no prophets or sons of prophets from whom help might be obtained. For a 25.2 ' while it seemed this was one task that the class of '28 was unable to surmount. Never before 'ef l had it succumbed ,the unsurmountable. At last, a -solution of the problem came, uLet our Crystal if-ll reveal to us the unknownf' Their Crystal readily consented and the following is what shea yi 2 revealed from the mystic depths of her soul. SIX 4 I seem to see Estelle Culler as neat and spick and span as ever, but a very busy woman. A fl l part of the day is spent in her office on upper Broadway where she conducts satisfactorily and if l artistically, an interior decorating firm in the great city. The rest of the day is spent in a bungalow in Jersey City where a tired newspaper man comes home at night, eats an artistic supper, in an ,Q artistic room in an artistic way. ig! Florence Finlayson went immediately from college to the town of C--, where it CQ iii seems a promising young doctor had just succeeded in establishing a good practice. The brilliant if? mind and high ideals of Florence were suddenly found to be essential to the healing skill of, if it-5 this physician. So there I see her putting into her home and her husband and her community a Q-Q! strong and rare personality. She is no longer sarcastic but has learned that there is more oil : sympathy in her than she knew. ,jig I see Irma Lewis who was so ambitious in her voice in College. Early she decided to be- Q4 lnvj come a teacher in public school singing and she succeeded in obtaining a place in a large city Vg 1 of our state. Alas! too sweet, too good, too lovely to escape she is no longer a teacher, no longer 53 1' Irma Lewis, but she doesn't care, for all is well. 'Ui There is a wonderful teacher in Lancaster. She is one whom everyone loves because she 3 jf offends no one. Her ability for leadership is great and in that town she, Elizabeth Lazenby, lj ,Qi exerts a powerful influence. if ful Louise McCord after many years of hard work has become a successful artist. In her pictures she has combined music and poetry which has attracted much attention and has almost :fix f brought about a new school of art.- iff-A, In one of the largest towns of South Carolina Lillian Fair was the organist for one of the .Q Methodist churches. She took a great interest in all of the musical affairs of the city. Ones Eff Sunday morning the organist didnit appear and at the same time the minister was searching I i t around for the assistant organist, Lillian was speeding away to Miami, Florida, on her honeymoon. Tj I.-it Mary Sue Tindal after leaving college taught for about ten years. Then there came along if one who seemed to possess the same high ideals and dignity as she. She knew and he knew. ,il V l Now in their home, peace and happiness dwell. When they enter it the world remains on ther 5,5 I outside. 13, Ruth Knight left college and taught school for two years in a system of city schools. At 5-Q the end of this time a great change came over Ruth. No longer was she independentg instead 'N she became sweeter and more lovable than ever, and now she prefers housekeeping to teaching. yi l She does not aspire to be a leader but her logical mind furnishes information which the leaders Q5 of her home town seek. gif My There is a new volume of poems just off the press. The oriental color and dreamy-like c l and subtle qualities that they possess have created a wide known popularity for the author, Edith Hz- Stukes. Dorothy Cunningham married soon after leaving college.

X herself could not tell what she wanted to do but after a short experience in teaching in a largel g-li city school she suddenly made up her mind at Christmas time, and with her usual determination, Q 'i L took the step that forced her out of the school under a law prohibiting married women from! teaching. Up to the event it is believed that Marian sincerely intended to teach and probably she :Cf If y did, too, but she made up her Scottish mind. gp. , ,lettie Crider is married, living near Andrew Chapel where she was born and bred. She is 1,4 supremely happy and still keeps faith with Andrew Chapel and Columbia College. Q13 Quin Guilmore, the same clever girl that I knew at Columbia College is teaching school.

One hundred and seventeen eager, rather inexperienced young actors made the assi start with enthusiastic ardor, visions of a quick success and hearts full of friendli- ness. They were turned into the Hrst ring, a varied lot, an amusing crowd to those superior wonders of the other rings. ln, Before long there were some who developed into excellent tent workers, stunt acrobats skilled in many ways, some clowns who kept the ball of fun a-rolling, there L were interesting personalities in side shows as well as in the big ring, and there were 5 til even a few tight-rope walkers who could get away with anything. Altogether it was a splendid cast. 4 .3 But one day they abandoned their work for a space and had a party just for' themselves and their managers. lt was a kid party in a mock nursery where as little l f -,'i girls and boys they went to play and have fun. V When these actors were promoted to the second ring they gained a place in the circus parade. This was the red-letter day when they went in colorful display es- corting their sisters of the fourth ring to a luncheon at the Jefferson Hotel. Q' In the third ring the actors had gained something of the polish of good associa- l tions and experience. They worked energetically, gave a minstrel, a play and l sponsored the Glee Club of the University of North Carolina with the chief aim of l entertaining the fourth ring in the crowning social event of the season, the Junior- 'ig Senior Banquet in a Japanese setting. J fr The fourth ring of nineteen hundred and twenty-eight has diminished consider- lg ably. Some of the actors decided that their fates lay in other directions. Others probably lacked the determination to climb to the fourth ring, and then, too, Cupid has shot his golden arrows at many of them. He has still probably one or two arrows to shoot very soon and many more left in his quiver waiting for the future. After the usual hard work came the joy of being entertained by the Sophomores E ffl and Juniors and the final finish of the happy company of actors in the always appealing ensemble of advancing from the college round of activities into that greater circus called life. These actors, dear friends, are the members of the class of '28 who have worked and played together through lessons of hardship and the great i joys of companionship for four wonderful years. J V 1 To all those who have helped us, borne with us, loved us and watched our show Y we make our final bow-in our hearts appreciation, on our lips-ufarewelln. . 5 LOUISE ALEXANDER MCCORD, Historian l lf Q Qi? .52 P J 53 y x A fb .ii ' Fifty-three 4' get ,. f., -X .I ...S V 7 P, Q -1 K , U ' H 'tj -xg A if IT-ff !'j'4,'.iQ,,,ij' jf ,1 ..
