fXI.xRGL'ER1TE XVILLIS Topo, MRS. Due YVest, S. C. She is not made to be the admiration of rfufrylzady but the hllfiflillffj of one. llarguerite decided that instead of a mu- sical degree, a matrimonial degree would be more to her taste, so this degree was con- ferred upon her during Christmas of her Senior vear. VVe have never quite forgiven John for taking Klarguerite away from us, vet we cannot blame him for we know that our loss was his gain. Altho Marguerite is the smallest member of the class, vet she can often accomplish more than others twice her size. She is known as HPOliC:v'H among her best friends but this name does not suit her in the least, for she is always busy' doing something, and what she does she does well. VVe congratulate Klr. Todd on his selection of a wife, and we all join in wishing Xlr. and Hrs. John Todd a happy and successful life. Offices Held. Klember Castalian Literary Society.

Senior Class l-listory HE CLASS OF 1920 pauses on the mountain top of graduation to look back over the pathway that it has blazed up the hill side of college educa- I tion. Naturally there are some regrets as we come to this day of retro- 'fgggfsl spection. There are sighs for opportunities missed, for bad records left be- dl lx hind, for demerits received: but there is a feeling of satisfaction also as we think over the paSt days. This has been a happy and worth while period of our lives. Of the twenty-three who stand together today prior to making their impress on the world that lies beyond, sixteen have trod the four years together. Ruth Boggs. Rose Burns, Sudie Nlilford, Lila Bonner, Virginia Galloway, Grace Donnald, Ruth Pratt, Nfargarete Dallas, Lilla Templeton, Sara Patrick, lvy Boyd, Elizabeth Tribble, Elizabeth Cathcart, Lillian Singleton and Virginia Reid started at the first mile post together. There were others with us in those early days, but as we climbed higher and higher many found the paths of education not to their liking. Some de- serted us to try the path of business life, some the school teachers sphere, and not a few left us for the primrose path of matrimony. But our depleted ranks have been filled time and again by others who have brought praise to our name. Grace Shef- Held, Pearl Dale, Laura Hill, Bessie Potts, Nlary Belle Hood, VVilmot VVhitesides, Laura Jane lllullen and llartha Pressly have joined us as we drew nearer to the top of the hill. The Class of 1920 leaves a composite photograph impressed on the mind of the President and each member of the Faculty of the VVoman's College. There will be times of course when our friends and instructors will think of the individual mem- bers of this class. Bflore often, however, they will recall the photograph that the class as a whole has left behind. Let me hold one such picture before your eyes and point out to ou the deeds and achievements that have put certain marks of character on the face of our class. As we scrutinize this picture we see that there are lines in the face that indicate strong intellect. There have been few girls in the class of 1920 who have failed to take a strong and active interest in the Academic work. During our Freshman year in college our average record was good. Never can we forget our heroic struggles with English nor the pride with which we received the plauded 'fVVell done when we had finished our themes that completed our Freshman English course. Each suc- ceeding year has brought its tasks in our literary work and each task has been met and conquered. The Nlathematics, French and Sciences have seemed at times insur- mountable obstacles, but all of those difiiculties have been overcome. Une of the crowning feats of our literary career was the editing, as Seniors, of the first annual from the VVoman's College. Nearly all of us have contributed to this, our brain child. Sometimes in the future, if present indications prove true, we may have a real writer from the Class of '20, for even now we have one, whose pen has aston- ished teacher and pupil. Page Forty foe
