Let the world slide, let the world go, A fig for care and a fig for woe. E Our pride, our pearl, our fair haired baby girl. One of our greatest trials-so lively that she makes us feel lazy. but were not. Recently made her Hdebut into sassietyx at Annapolis, and has since been in a. perfect whirl of gaiety that culminated in the Y. WV. C. A. convention at Gloversville. Takes great pleasure leaping from crag to crag of her Pennsylvania mountains, but might be persuaded to leave them to follow Brig- ham Young. Just loves to send her friends fudge. Poetically inclined. ELVA BESSIE GRAY, , . E Elmira, N. Y. Mike,i' Be-ss. , S15 M, B. Team QD. 'f Whence came thy blushes, rose so fair, So fragrant, sweet and debonair ? One of our many good looking girls-small and cute-tries to look dignified. Recently posed as Queen of Hearts and -made quite a hit. Much addicted to singing and manages to grind out a soprano good enough to match Genie's alto. Practically lives in her gym. suit. As a member of Kappa Iota Sigma Sigma pays her dues regu- larly and quite fuliills the promise given by her noble endurance of the initiation. Mike is short for microscopic, which brings her very short indeed. Has been known to laugh. 25

INIABEL Louisn CLARK, Avon. N. Y. f'WVife.i' QJVI, Senator Q3l, Treas. Qlj, Libra- rian CD M 125, Cor. Seo. 45 M 35, V. Pres. QSH. He's all I've got-or want-is J im. He's jist so good and clever ! An' likes me, an' I like hi1n, 'An' will, I guess, forever. Awfully sorry to disappoint you, but Jim in this case is jest a pup-not two years old. Don't know as the quotation would apply to a human Jim-never heard Mabel mention one. Sheis a bashful child, and reticent: religious to a fault, even cutting Chester , to go to ohuroh. Lives on a strict diet-they wonder Why sl1e's so thin. Naturally timid, but can talk when thoroughly roused, and recently spoke so longand loudly on the servant question that Bessie oou1dn't get a word in edgewise for the factory girl. Her 'L Budding hopes of last year have been frustra- ted by 'i gym? ANNA MAY CLEVELAND, Elmira, N. Y. Rube, Little Ann. Q5 M, Critic Q M Q3j, Sec. QD, Lit. Ed. IRIS. What stature is she of? Just as high as my heartfi One of our shortest girls. Even her gown can- not give her dignity, nor does her original Way of wearing her cap bring her up to average height. Always charming but never more so than when she appeared as Little Bo Peep. Char- ter member of Kappa Iota Sigma Sigma-holds all the offices and was the one who made the fa- mous motion that the dues be increased. Very fond of gym.-went twice last semester. Bari- tone in our Silent Quartettef' Must be aw- fully olever for she can explain all the dihicult passages in the IRIS. You see she has made a careful study of human nature, foreigners a specialty. i' Zhat's all ri ! 24

LUCY LAFAYETTE GREEN, Westield, N. J. Luc, Cotton, Twiuf' K E, Thespis, V. Pres. C1-'04j, Art Ed. IRIS. Out of the garden of play time,-out of the bovver of rest Fain would I follow at day time music that calls toa quest. The only music we ever heard Lucy herself pro- duce, is that of the chapel bell-yet they say the quotation suits her. Just has an ear for other people's music, maybe, and can appreciate it. Did you ever hear Cotton laugh ? Must be she never did then or you would have heard it. Has great artistic ability-apply at IRIS office for par- ticulars. Interesting to look at-with soft, curly hair, languid eyes, and freckles. Recently has taken to crushes and bead chains. Hei diddle, diddlef' , ANNAH LOUISE GRIFFIN, Big Flats, N. Y. Ann, Punikinf' Q M. Her face is lean and her wit is keen And her eye lets nothing pass. Ann knows a lot, but she's so bloomin' back- ward about telling it. Lives so near home her interest is divided-between us and-her rela- tives of course. Entertains us a great deal with stories of college girls we have never heard of before, and never would hear of from Ann herself. A living exampleiof promptness in pay- ing dues, making beds, etc.-and often used as call boy for girls that have 8 o'clocks. 26
