Terah Naomi Lovell, M.L. Brookhaven, Mississippi. “I have no superfluous leisure. My stay must be stolen out of other affairs .” ’Twas the good county of Lincoln that gave us our much loved “Tee.” Her stu- dious mood and laughing way display her pleasant disposition. Success will crown her in whatever path she chooses. Polka McIntyre, M.L. Johns, Mississippi. Her very frowns are fairer far Than smiles of other maidens are.” “Yes, that’s her.” Look at her picture. She is the “Polkiest” girl in our class, but by far not the dullest. Polka is kind- hearted, conscientious and true. By her independence and well balanced dignity she has won the admiration and love of all. She may teach next year, provided, Master Cupid can be persuaded to leave Johns. It is very true, “A little body doth often har- bor a great soul.” Geneva Kennebrew, M.L. Hazelhurst, Mississippi. By my troth, my little body is weary of this great world.” Geneva is one of our most faithful girls. She is a true friend and always is glad to lend “a helping hand” to any one in trouble. By her constant cheerfulness she has won the hearts of all who know her. Trying experiments in Chemistry is her specialty for they always ( ?) turn out just right. 25

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.

Ouida Reddoch, M.L. Taylorsville, Mississippi. “With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come.” This young lass came to us from Taylors- ville and has well proven herself worthy of the love of every girl. Long years ago it was propresied she would shine resplendant in all the circles of this grand old institu- tion, — and ably has she carried out this prophesy. “Of manners gentle and ever mild,” is her motto. Sara Katherine Smith, M.L. Clarksdale, Mississippi. Divinely tall, and ?nost divinely fair.” This fair queen of the delta came to us many, many years ago. In every thing we have undertaken Kate has proved a help- ful worker. In seeing the many things at which Kate is good we may well term her “Jack-of-all-trades,” and say besides, “O, what may woman within her hide.” We prophecy for Kate a brilliant and successful future. Gertrude Elizabeth Summers, M.L. Brookhaven, Mississippi. “Full rich nature , free to trust. Truthful and even sternly just.” Gertrude is a fine friend and a persistent student. Her favorite past time is “going to Walsh.” When some folks announce their court they cry “Oyez,” but Gertrude simply yells, “Ola!” And the courtin’ be- gins — which is a very natural sport in Summers. Of course Summers are Annual and this particular one is a perfect daisy on our Annual. She has the push and endur- ance of a regular Pioneer family and we could never have won out if the one out had been the one this write up’s talking so much about. 1 ® 1 4 — 26
