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

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

VIRGINIA COOK Two Years Advanced Course Athletic Association President of Dramatic Club Dress Committee House Committee Senior Play She that hath knowledge, sparelh her words. ' ENERAL Information to-day? Mercy, I don't know anything! J I-Iere comes Ginny Cook, she'll tell you anything you want to know. And indeed she will! For not only has Ginny a remarkable fund of general information, but she is always willing to impart it to anyone. Although we often marvel at the high marks in her studies, we realize that she deserves them, for she is a conscientious worker, never shirking any part of a lesson. Please don't form your whole opinion of Ginny, yet! Of course, she is quiet, and not many girls have the privilege of knowing her inti- mately, but to her friends she is a true companion and I loyal to the last degree. She has an excellent sense of humor-we love her surreptitious giggle which occasion- ally gets the better of her dignity! Ginny is reliable and capable. When a task is to be done, be it pleasant or otherwise, Ginny, with a smile, will tackle it, and we may feel confident that she is doing it well. Although Ginny is a diminutive person, the place she fills in our hearts is very large and very important. 7-3
