HILDA XVALL BUTLER. I Hilda's sunny nature and happy disposition have made her a wel- Come member of our class. The glass of 1911 feel their misfortune in losing, as we feel our good luck in gaining such a true, sweet and brilliant girl, She is always cheer- ful. Even when her Prom man missed his train she clidn't think it an occasion for fi-owns. fProm troubles clon't affect us all that wa.y.J May I quote two of I-Iilcla's sayings: 'No slushing for me and Pvc got to go down and say good- night to Fan. MARY FLOR.ENCE CALLAHAN. ALBION, N. Y. ELIVIIRA, N. Y. KVhy speak of Florence? She made herself far renowned in the caste of The XVise Young Sopho- Xvinter mores' played during the of '07 and '08, As heroine Floss won the highest praise: 'twas her name that resounded again and again in the mouths of the audi- euceg 'twas she who received the lanrels. But then Floss is always winning lanrels for us whether it is in dramatics, athletics, class functions, or literary work. This year she is Editor-in-chief of the I1-is and Junior editor of the Sibyl. Yes, Fannie, I agree with you, it is her pleasant manner, her cheery smile, her loyal and loving nat1u'e that makes her so well likedg her intellectual ability that makes her so well-known.

EDNA LOUISE BECK. DIAE ARMEDA BURT. The oliicial act of 1911 in crown- ing Mae as its queen but served to enlarge the realms of her wholn we of 1910 have ever acknowledged as our sovereign. Her sway, how- ever, extends beyond the confines of Elmira, for from Such distant places as Cornell, Syracuse and Rochester, other faithful subjects come,-especially at prom time. Versatility is Mae's strong point, at star in everything and she is from labsv to poetry writing. But in spite of her superior attributes is ever one of us for though she turns all heads toward her she has too level a one of her own to be turned--by adulationi' our Queen ELINIIRA, N. Y. The very smallest girl in college! However, the old sa-ying good things Come in small packages is true here. For we have found out that shes' a fine musician and able to do many other things well. Edna has lots of spirit and courage and was a source of inspiration at the tirne of our Freshinan rush with her Pm little, but I'1n strong. She is a very successful imitator and: Freshlnan Latin was made easier by Edna'5 classes for the study of Htwanslation, gwammah, wef'wences and pwosef' Y .N N '-NN.. . . PHELPS, N. Y.

BIA RGERY L. CADIERON . PlCfl'El'lB 0 li 0, N - Y- My. what activity! Almost Lakes our breath away! For lllargcry is ever up and doing, always has her lessons done days ahead of tiine and then just sews and cmbroiders until we are beginning to fear for her health. She is an authority on Copley prints, and you must have her tell you about her 'La Petite Danoisef' Tliatfs the picture over her desk, and' it came all the way from Paris. Margery's greatest fad, however, is shoes, and she has them in all styles and colors. Some attribute this hobby to the fact that she oan't help being conscious of her real small feet, but Dlargery says it takes six pairs of shoes to scare away those mice in the night. FLORENCE EVA COLE. CHARLTON, N. Y. Florence is so modest and retir- ing that she would have preferred to remain undiscovered. But our dralna has the power of bringing to light all those virtues and talents which the unassuming fain would hide and so it was not long before we became aware of the noble character, sweet disposition and lit- erary ability which are hers. Vlfe are learning to value her friendship more and more every day and are just a. bit envious of a crush who doesirt happen to be in the ranks of 1910. 30
