Since entering the much-dreaded Training School she has devel- oped the most womlerfiil voice, which is the delight and pride of lier many friends. She spends most of her time vibrating between the auditorium learning a new .song. and Mr. Gilliam ' s trying Social Teas. She has a bright, cheeiy disposition, (only gets mad witli Kate ), and her laitgh will be sadly missed from the halls after she leaves S. X. s.

Shi ' meets eveiy situation with the dignified (?) exclamation, Wben Iteuben comes to town. She is crazy about peanuts, ))erliaps, because she thinks the more eor|Hilent, the moi ' e important.
