RIJBIB ERNESTINE SCIIRA(;EE. “A reed sliaken by every passinj; wind.” As licr spectral figure comes floating down Main street we wonder that the “ Sisters three ” do not iti- itiatc lier to their order. Rnbie has had Jiianv love ahairs and still survives. lOHN CHARLES SMITH. ‘‘Tlie world did shake when I was born.” John Charles Smith, otherwise Pocahontas, is the larger one of these little Smiths; small in size but great in name. He has the fearlessness which his ancestor possessed, and we trust that he will some da be dis- tinguished. CHARLES WARREN SMITH. ‘‘Where did you come from, Baby dear? ( nt of everj’where into here.” Second Tom Thumb. Although small he is like an onion, great in strength. We expect one day to hear of him as a genius in the technical world. MARY JOSEPHINE SAIITH. ‘‘Not to know me ar ?ues yourself unknown ” Quiet, sedate Miss Smith came to us from the Day Street school four years ago, and has ever since been a silent but scholarly student. Good for Alay! 28

BEATRICE MARTHA READ. “1 have immotal longings in me.” A fiddler of the first water. Ex-meinljer of the or- chestra, and a German student of whom Miss Wood- ward may well be proud. She and Helen are the “ lon and short of it.” CARROL BENNETT RICHARDSON. ‘‘Such a pretty hoy, and dances so lovely,” Itchy is just the candy, he can say ‘‘darn” and “gosh” and make up stale bluft ' s. What his aim in life is we cannot just say, but we don’t want to be round when he is aiming. STUART CARY SARGENT. ‘‘ Beautiful and Jchildlike he was, but now look at him.” When Stuart was a freshman the girls glanced at him and said ‘‘how cute,” but now he is a senior they gather round his desk and say ‘‘Oh, dear!” He in- tends to go to M, I. T. (N. I. T.) BESSIE FRANCES SAWYER. ‘‘Sober, steadfast, and demure.” Here we find another West-ern emigrant, but unlike the rest she is very taciturn. In all her rides she was never known to try to cheat the conductor. 27

HATTIE ELIZABETH STARK. “I am notliiiif if not studious.” Hattie’s surname cleserihes in a word this demure maiden. Agnes and she are a fine pair and good re- sults are e.xpeeted from these priceless people. Their application for the Old Ladies’ Home has been sent in, but still we have hopes. FRED EUOENE STOCKWELL. ‘‘Sec little Freddie, how he dotes Upon his daily Quaker Oats; And eveiw fellow student notes The smile that won’t come off.” B ' red never looks at the girls, for sad to Wright he has lost his heart in Gardner. GERTRUDE STEVENvS TWICHELL. ‘•Ah me! How weak a thing a woman’s heart is!” VN ' e expected wedding invitations from Gertrude and Carrol, but like other great schemes, it must have fallen through. In spite of her love affairs she has been a good student, like the rest of ’07. ETHELYN LOUISE UPTON. ‘‘Teach me to apply m3 trembling heart to wisdom.” A shadow from a fleecy cloud; she floats to school; turns around and floats right home again. 29
