'Each girl, alone with her own thoughts, imagines the possibility of having the glistening treasure rest upon her head. Many other pairs of starry eyes regard the crown with envy for those who have worn it and with doubtful hope that they might own this brilliance for one cherished evening. In each tiny crystal the dream of ,every girl and the pride of her escort is captured. For those who wish to turn this dream into reality, there will be several hurried and wondrous weeks of exciting competi- tion. Petitions will be passed to friends with the question, Will you vote for me? : voting will be held to select finalists, with a second ballot narrowing the choice to three. As the clock strikes the appointed hour on the long-awaited evening, the, class president will place the coveted jewel on the chosen queen's head to designate the girl who through the weeks has changed the shadow of doubt to the light of success.
