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

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.

ANNA DIAY COLRIDGE. Ambition, energy and persever- ance are Anna's eliaracteristivs and in the way she utilizes every mo- ment she teaches us valuable life lessons. She takes a lively interest in anything she undertakes, and seems to enjoy her studies thor- oughly. Argumentation is her fa- vorite, however, and it is well that the farmers of our country do not investigate the effect of the tariff on them as-thoroughly as Anna or we might expeet ill general uprising in the rural d'ist1'icts. ROSA S. COTTON. I-IA RTFORD, N. Y. EI.lSIl'lT,A, N. Y. ive would prophesy for Rosa a brilliant career in the business world. She is known for her splen- did executive ability and has lots of energy and always knows just what to do. As assistant busi- ness manager of the Sibyl she has proven herself an indefatigu- able worker, and whenever ap- pointed to a committee always assumes a large share of the re- sponsibility. Rosa has a great lore for amusements, the theater is one form, andshe can tell you about all the best dramas and con- certs. She's fond of dancing, too, but thinks Ithaca the best setting for this pastime.
