mmf GARGUYLEIEIEE L ANNE BROWN Three Years General Course Athletic Association Dramatic Club Clee Club Christian Association Board Dress Committee Library Committee Senior Play Yet taught by time my heart has learned to glow For others' good, and melt at others' woe. F ever you find your roommate a little too noisy and unsympathetic, if you haven't gotten that one letter for simply ages, or if you can't reach the top hook of your dress in back, therels always one person in '26 you want to find, and that's Anne Brown. Anne doesn't get excited 5 she doesn't say to you, l'm awfully busy. Come back later, can't you? She does what you want when you want it, and what is more, she does it with a smile. After all, it's the way a deed is done quite as much as the deed itself that counts. Now please don't think that Anne is a meek, mild creature whom one can conveniently drop all burdens upon, or order around at ones will. No, quite the contrary. Anne has a most decided will of her own, as one look into her steady dark eyes shows. And, too, we see in the Anne of the Christian Association Board a girl who has high ideals, a firm character, and an unswerving purpose. Twenty-six knows you for the splendid worker you are, Anne, and it loves you most for your true friendship. 19

ANNETTE BRINCKERHOFF Three Years General Course Athletic Association Dramatic Club Cwlee Club Choir Hockey Team Indoor Basketball Team Head of Roller Skating Dress Committee Library Committee Athletic Editor of GARGOYLE Senior Play Gym Team The ilariety of all things forms a pleasure. 'TWENTY-SIX is proud to present to you Annette, our four-team girl. Can you - imagine making four teams and being equally good on each of them? There is no one who can keep goal so well as Annette, who rather than let the ball pass, will kick it or sit on it. lt is more profitable to play tennis with Annette than against her. The chances for winning are a great deal better if you are on the same side of the net. We need only to mention roller skating, and everyone thinks of Annette. She is our chief star in fancy skating. Annette is versatile, for she can perform indoors as well as out. She acts in the Living-Room Plays, sings in the Choir and dances in the Christmas Revels. She ' ' is also talented in the art of waving hair g she willingly puts in rows upon rows of combs for girls who are to have their pictures taken or who are going on a week-end. We feel sure that in the future, Annette will be as adaptable to her environment as she has been here at Emma Willard. 18

GARGUYLEIHEE 1 MARY ELLEN BUKEY Two Years General Course Athletic Association Dramatic Club Study I-lall Committee Senior Play Yet graceful ease and sweetness devoid of pride. MUSING situations used often to arise when Mary Ellen first came. These were due to the fact that we couldnt, somehow, keep her separate from Kay Baker, but now that we are better acquainted with them both, we couldnt confuse them. We have learned that lvlary Ellen is very distinctly individual. We have found that Mary Ellen is exactly what we had pictured a Southern belle to be. She is dark-haired and blue-eyed, and she speaks with a slight drawl- just enough to be charming. She carries her head proudly, in a manner befitting her poised dignity and aristocratic grace, which are emphasized by her sweet seriousness and earnestnessf. But don't think she is an aloof, pensive person. Not at all! A quick sense ' ' of humor often brings into play a gay laugh or a radiant smileg and her eyes sometimes laugh when her. lips do not. By her sweetness, persistence, and unselfishness, Mary Ellen has made us very fond of her, and we of 'zo will long remember her unfathomable charm. ZO
