Adrienne, slim, fair and lovely, moves among us, spreading the bright music of laughter. Adrienne is most becomingly a history major. How beautifully she could take the part of a win' some lady of crinoline days! No more perfectly, however, than she is the charming, enthusiastic companion of today. We do not doubt that the dramatic possibilities of her chosen subject have occurred to her for she is often scen carrying about such a book as Belloc's Marie Antoinette or Robespierre. There is in Aden a talent for drawing, born of leisure and a mind carefree and happy. In moments of dull routine her comic muse brightens up one's horizon with a clever caricature. Her aesthetic muse, more widely appreciated, is indispensable to school activities. Place cards and posters adorned with the bevvitching senoritas and romantic knightsferrant of her pen tempt even the unimaginative to build castles in Spain. A glance into the future reveals Adrienne famous as an illustrator of the stories of leading magaf zines, and still concentrating her interest upon Spanish settings and designs. Sixtyffour

And what is the cause of all this? It is merely Alice's Wicked propensity for those little 'Lasidesv which cause her companion, unless she be devoid of a sense of humor, to indulge in a paroxysm of mirth. Despite their proverbial dignity, the Seniors find Alice's wit delightful and refreshing. The interests of those who boast out-offtown addresses are likely to be quite varied and, consef quently, Alice is much absorbed in otherwise unimportant places along the Lake Shore Road. just ask her about skiing and its value as a helpful sport. The Fates have been more than generous in bestovving upon Alice those gifts which critics desire in the capable schoolteacher, and she herself would lead us to suppose that this was her vocation. But we, who surely know, are of the opinion that Alice's appreciation of the subtle and her love of the sublime and the beautiful will find expression not among capricious school children but in def lightful soirees and uevenings at home where she will confess to her special friends how much she enjoys her latest and best degree-that of M.R.S. - Sixtyfthree

But to obtain a fairly accurate like' ness of her, we suggest this procedure: Pin the canvas down securely with the thumbtacks of Nina's steadfastness and loyalty. Outline the sketch with her loveliness and grace, and shade it with her vvistfulness. Add a touch of color with the flights of imagination in which she loves to soar, and give the picture its highflights with the smile that plays about her lips. And then you will have scme conception of Nina-Whose love of beautiful things is almost a religion with her, Whose intricate character defies analysis, and in whom we can discern, as Joseph Conrad discerned in Dona Rita, something of the women of all time. a certain immortality. Nina's home will be a gracious and restful place, agleam with polished mahogany and old silver, glowing with firelight. And there, with her books and her pictures, her music and her loved ones, she will find peace and contentment. Sixtyffive
