Callie Eads Dudley, B.A. Utica, Mississippi. “A face with gladness overspread “Soft smiles by human kindness bred This little bunch of quietness came to us a few years ago and has indeed won many, many friends. Although quiet and un- assuming she is a very hard working stu- dent. She will always have the love and devotion of her classmates and well may we say, “The wisest one, in general, is he who does not think he is so.” Mittie Terrell Fortinberry, M.L. Osyka, Mississippi. “And oh! her eyes were in themselves a soul ” Now it’s a shame to tell it on her, but Mittie has a “yaller streak” to her. At least it would be a shame, but her “yaller streak” is in her hair and such a wealth of glistening sunshine you never saw except in her merry, laughing eyes. They bring Midsummer spirit in the deariest of wintry gloom and her sweet and kindly presence is a continual Ray of gladness to even the faithful Bernards of the campus. Mittie is one of our best musicians and we’re prophesying great things for her. Annie Laurie Eager, M.L. Clinton, Mississippi. Her presence blends its warmth and health To all who come before it.” This fair lass is one of the two town girls who make up our crew. “Lau” is quiet and reserved, but she also possesses the true qualities which go to make up a lady. She is “wise to resolve and patient to perform.” Through her diligent work she serves as a member of the Annual Staff. 23

Verna, Mississippi. “Thou whose exterior semblance doth belie Thy souls immensity.” Buena is the quietest girl in the Senior Class. She has never been knowm to give any trouble or say hard things to any one. She is a good student and a hard worker, and if she continues as she has this one year we have known her, we can truthfully say she is sure to succeed. Ruth Birdsong, M.L. Bolton, Mississippi. “A countenance in which doth meet Siveet records, promises as sweet.” O! that we might sound with lulling melody the beautiful harmony of this song bird. Ruth is a popular girl and what- ever she is we always find her wearing a pleasant smile. Yet she is such a baby that almost every Saturday night catches her on the way home. 22

ILJIIil T IH Winona Kossuth Hammond, M.L. Columbia, Mississippi. “I am Sir Oracle , And when I ope my lips let no dog bark” Hush! Listen! What is this? Only Winona who has been with us three years. Winona possesses the true and valuable art of making friends; at first acquaintance she seems an old friend. May her life be crowned with blossoming success. Mattie Jones Justice, M.L. Rayville, Louisiana. “And still the wonder grew That one small head could carry all she knew.” Here’s to the one alien of our class. Mattie has been with us only two years, but during her stay has proven her great love for literature. She has read every- thing from comic papers to the deepest philosophic treatises. Mattie is an enthusi- astic worker and has well won the line. “None but herself can be her parallel.” Sarah Elizabeth Johnston, M.L. Gloster, Mississippi. “For never saw I mein or face In which more plainly I could trace Benignity and home-bred sense.” “Love spends his all and still has store.” This we can truthfully say of our much loved President and Editor-in-Chief. Sarah always has a kind and loving word for every one she meets. The troubled and aching heart finds comfort in her words and cheer in her kindly feeling.
