rwnf i GARGUYLEIEIEB K MARGARET CARR General Course Athletic Association Dramatic Club Cvlee Club Choir Social Committee Senior Play Good nature is the sign of a large and generous soul. E were all glad when we heard that Peggy was coming back to us this fall, and that she would take her place with us as a Senior. When she left school in June, 1924, at the end of herjunior year, Peggy had many staunch friends here, and it was with a great deal of pleasure that we welcomed her back again. Anyone will tell you what great amusement you can have by being in the same company with Peggy, because every minute she makes a humorous or subtle remark. ln large gatherings she assumes a quiet manner which a stranger might mistake for diffldence, But the girls who were new this year at school soon found that making friends with her was easy. Because of her ability to play the ukelele, '-'T'- Peggy is constantly being sought to take some part in a musical program. l believe it can truthfully be said that none of us will ever forget her dressed as an immigrant in the l-lallowelen Masquerade. Whatever the part Peggy may have to play in life, she will adapt herself to it perfectly. 'LI

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

GARGUYLEIHEB 5 PATRICIA CONNOLLY Eleven Years General Course Athletic Association Triangle Board Lunch Room Committee Senior Play There is no wisdom in frankness. PATSY is one of the most versatile girls l know. She seems to be able to do anything from baking a cake to drawing dainty ladies or grotesque gargoyles. Proof of her ability as an artist may be had by perusing this GARGOYLEQ and as to her ability to make a cake-well, one cake made her famous. She can wield a brush or needle with equal facility. In fact, Patsy designs and makes most of her numerous dresses and hats which we gaze at with wonder. l-low can anyone be so clever? l dont know what we would do without Pat during the luncheon hour. She keeps us continually laughing with her amusing stories and witty comments on all subjects. We wish you the best of luck, Patsy, all your life! ' ' 22
