2 THE PRESIDENTIAL REVIEW. Washington, D. 0., June, 1902.H Four years ago, when the Freshman State was admitted into the Colle- giate Union, a young and brilliant woman, Kathleen Moore Mallory, was elected to the Presidential chair. Daughter of a welleknown Ala- bama lawyer, President Mallory soon evinced the infiuence of her training in an inaugural address be- fore the assembled multitudes of Freshmen and Seniors. This happy faculty of ready speech and wit made the President most popular at Debating Societies and dinner parties. Her sympathies were broad; therefore her followers many, and after a year of prosper- ous administration she retired to the field of private practice and interested herself particularly in young aspirants. Though released from official dutiesI President Mal- KATHLEEN M.

TH E CARNATI O N President Mallory was succeeded by Mary Porter Boss, a well-known speaker in the House of Represen- tatives. Though M. P. Boss had al- ready made a reputation for herself as an athlete and an actor, it was not long before she came to public notice as a woman of exceptional executive ability. a With a philosophic calm and a ?philanthropic energy she guided the bark over many a sea of trouble and, exerting a quiet force, inspired fresh loyalty into the hearts of all. MARY P. BOSS. Her general good nature and fair play won her popularity not only with her own people, but also with those of her would-be State enemies. Though intercollegiate wars mare red the prosperity of her adminis- tration, peace reigned in the heart of each citizen, and sincere regret was felt by all when President Boss served her term of action in the spring of 1900. Nan Davis came to the Presiden- tial chair at a critical period in the States history. It was the turning year of its career, and the ultimate success or failure depended upon the 22 guiding power of the chair. Presi- dent Davis showed herself in every way equal to the position of respon- sibility. Though wars did not ruf- ANNA M. DAVIS. tie the surface, the depths were often stirred with mighty problems. Quietly and tactfully she faced each dimculty with characteristic sweet- ness and gentleness, and under her careful administration the State pro- duced one of the most popular books ever published in the collegiate world. While in the management of State affairs President Davis was calm and dispassionate, she never- theless made a clever and witty toastmistress at the Junior-Senior banquet. Her administration was one of complete satisfaction, and she retired from public duty a friend to all. For many years will the State ree member when Frances Rowland Connor was their President. Through three years of pleasures and sorrows, failures and successes, this beloved President extended a sympathetic and helping hand to all; and in that parting year, just before the citizens should scatter

Instituted by Miss Elizabeth George Wolf, a Clever and Talented Student. Baltimore, June 3.e1t will be of interest to all college students to know of the innovation that has been introduced into The Woman's College of Baltimore by a member of the Class of 1902. Miss Eliza- beth Wolf has done a service not only to her own class and College, but, by the example she has set, to all colleges in the country. By the simple exercise of her versatile brain she has succeeded in estab- 23 lishing a system of quizzes to the Dean, thereby saving her classmates much anxiety and real trouble. There is absolutely no phase of any psychological problem Which this brilliant young woman cannot turn to good advantage. You Will see at once that this device is not only labor-saving for the members of the class, but is calculated to be of im- mense profit to the professors in the ELIZABETH G.
