I IOTSt 1013 desire ” Do you like dimples and dark brown eyes? hen Mamie is sure to please. Her strength °f character and intellectual ability, together with wit and humor, add to her beauty. De- spite her quiet, dignified and sedate appear - an ce, she is merry and full of fun. She has a splendid vocabulary, even if she does use “d is- sl Pate for “disintigrate. ,, And speaking of c ?°king — if you want to taste something di- Vlne , just get her to make you some divinity. M. L. Degree. Eunice Longino Silver Creek “I do betray myself with blushing Silver Creek has sent to us a girl who is well worth her weight in silver — or gold. Eunice is loved by all who know her, and is very popular among her school-mates and many friends. She has devoted most of her time to the study of piano and voice. She is truly a song bird and her Hillman and M. C. friends realize this fully on recital nights. But we believe that Eunice sings her sweetest in a dimly lighted parlor, where there is only one to listen. M. L. Degree.

TJFlEs PIONEER? Ruby Hammack Flora “She ' s beautiful and therefore to be woo ' d, She ' s a woman and therefore to be won This precious stone, a veritable Kohinoor in size, was found in Madison County one September, not so many years ago. Her first polish was received in the Flora High School and her two years in Hillman have given her a wonderful lustre. During her first year here we thought she would be a “Saint,” but she seems to have decided to be a gem of great “Price.” In Chemistry and “Stute” receptons Ruby shines, likewise in midnight feasts and Sunday School. Always good natured, oblig- ing and altogether charming, she has won the hearts of all who know her. M. L. Degree. Chalybeate “ She passes praise : then praise too short doth blot.’ Lela always sees the good qualities in every- thing, and is one of the most unselfish girls in the class. She is cheerful, helpful and sympathetic, hut in spite of all these virtues, Lela is quite modest. Although she realizes her position in the Senior row, yet we hear the almost involuntarily reheasing her alphabet. A, B, C, D-e-e, a part of which she must master, in order to add another degree to her M. L. If she fails in this, however, her ambition is to be an “old maid” teacher. M. L. Degree. 22

IP I OyNt Ruth McCaughan Clarksdale “She that can think and ne ' er disclose her mind, See suitors following and not look behind. A girl who is loved by all and whose originality and artistic ability are always in demand. Ruth has taken her time while at college and has learned enough to pay for the time. Who would not be willing to spend six years at college, if they could sew, play, and shine in art as she does? Saying noth- ing of her regular literary work, and teachers’ train- ing course. She often determines to he an “old maid,” but “somebody” persuades her to change her mind. She is quite an artist and paints people as they ought to be, not as they are. Diploma in Art. Pelahatchie “Jove knows I love , — but whom? Although Flossie appears very indifferent, she has won many friends not only in Hillman, but also in Mississippi College. When there is to be a ball game, she appears with her big coat on, in order to have pockets enough to hold her tickets. Flossie takes her own time for everything and worries about nothing. She is always ready for a feast, even if it is only Kress candy. While she is not so fond of most studies, some say she likes Milton. She de- lights in playing tennis love games. M. L. Degree. 24
