NALITILLJS I937 stnxuoas MILDRED E. Fisk Edgewood, Rhode Island Psychology A kind eye makes contradiction an asset. A lace fichu-candied lemon peel- Lady Macbeth doing home mission work- cactus blossoms-garden peas. We've all but lost our Milly of yesteryear, the Milly of the infectious laugh and raucous Oh shoot! In her place We have a self-contained and self- composed, dignified young lady whose third great commandment is, In every- thing be neat. - Having tasted the evidence of her culinary prowess at our Senior dinner party, I am wondering if she is choosing wisely in adopting the teaching pro- fession-but of course she can always avail herself of her woman's prerogative to change her mind. C. BEVERLY GORDON North Chelmsford, Massachusetts English Men with gray eyes are generally keen, energetic. How true this quotation is in Bev's case. Not only is he keen and energetic, he's methodical and foresighted as well. What's more, he always keeps his prom- ises-and expects you to do likewise. He came to me about the third day of school last September and said my Nautilus work would be due the third Tuesday in March. The day came, and before I was decently clothed and shaved Bev knocked on the door and said he'd take my write-ups over to the staff room and save me the bother. What a man! There's still some balm in Gilead, though-he once got C- in an exam. The best of luck to you, Bev.

I937 -Q 'W NAUTILUS SENICRS NAOMI CREAN New Britain, Connecticut English Persuasive, yet denying eyes, all elo- quent with language of their own. Pink mallow blossoms-vanilla creams H a Florentine silver cross - Cleopatra darning socks-acacia perfume. I would not call Naomi a lady. She seems much more than that. She seems a woman. Graciously matured, serenely self- possessed, vibrantly alive, Naomi typifies Woman in the deepest, truest sense-a sense which makes lady weak and characterless. To me a lady is a sort of model upon which are draped pretty manners, but within which the deepest chords of life's rich symphony are seldom struck. Naomi is not this. Naomi is the sort of girl who could greet princes with equanimity though she were dressed in gingham. RUTH L. FADER West Somerville, Massachusetts Music One of the most wonderful things in nature is a glance of the eye. Sparks of the Bostonian scintillate from Ruthie's personality. With her con- servative New England habits you would never suspect her of impulsiveness or ah- sent-mindedness. That is, until you talked to her for a few minutes and then had her suddenly revive, saying, Oh, I'm sorry, what were you telling me? But these turns of individuality are Ruth. You tease her: roguishly she turns her eyes toward you and breaks into a tiny snicker which only urges you to tantalize more. And whence she draws her en- thusiasm for winding out those endless fundamentals of piano playing we should all like to know.

IQ37 U 'Ffa-u' NALITILLJS SENIGRS WILSON R. LANPIiER Plattsburg, New York History Young men's love then lies, Not only in the heart, but in the eyes. It seems a bit strange to think of Jack having a church with all its problems and details. I-lis light-heartedness reminds me of Chaucer's Squire in a Ford V Eight rather than of a preacher-man whose ador- ing congregation calls him Brother Lanpherf' Too, he reminds me of Cl1aucer's Squire Qwho was a lovyere D in that ourllack, it seems, is enamored of a ladye faire- in fact, we have it on good authority that he will soon middle-aisle it with the charming Gertrude. We wish you well, Jack, in all your undertakings. May Life be kind to you and may each passing year enrich you and bless you. ALicE E. NIELSON Collingdale, Pennsylvania English Through her expressive eyes her soul distinctly spoke. Alice quickly outgrew her early repu- tation of being Marion Nielson's sister and became a personage in her own right Wand justly so, for Alice has charm and talents to spare. Quietly serene and self-confident, Alice moves unfalteringly toward her desired goals, be it the mastery of a dillicult piece of violin music, a lit, assignment, or a reluctant student. Oft times I'ye seen Alice raise her little pointed chin to a forty-live degree angle, looking uncom- promisingly at someone Qtoo often it has been myselfj and saying in softly sweet accents, Do you think jyou're the only busy person here? I shall expect you to be on the committee! Have you ever heard her play Gounod's Aw Alarm?
