Yet, in a tiasli her iilentity was almost swallowed up when she lieeanie a satellite to the pa- troness of nuisie. Since then she lia been widely known in that capacity. Her favor- ite topic of conversation is the Minor in music and she ranges from the depths of despair to the seventh heaven of happiness on this one topic. Lately she ha.s enlarged her vocabulary with expressions concerning the Training .School and the dearest chil- dren; yet the Jlinor melody runs through it all. Nevertheless, this same satellite is one of the cutest, most attractive, and most lovable of all the eightv-nine Seniors. ELLEX IRBY HARDY BLAI ' K.STONE. ViKlil-MA Arg is Literary Society. Ellen is a hardy student and statistics she can tell From the beginning of time to present, and too. she knows them well. But goodness ' sakes the number of cases she possesses Is appalling to her friends, and her room- mate quite distresses. She is very wise and attractive with friends both far and near. She reads botli prose and poetry, but e.-- pecially Shakespeare. 31

Mi.ss Alice lias won a great repute as a music teacher, and all of us know that she is attracted by Toons of any kind at any time. , It is quite convenient that Alice ro(nus on one end of the building and the Training School is on the other, for Miss Woodiii-tf ' s office is used as a rest room between classes, and Alice finds much pleasure there, even if she is sometimes impudent. Alice stands up for her rights — though it has been said by some she is hard to understand — and with one sight of her. vdu will know that you cannot knnck her down or get aroinid her. Her chief (icc ipatiiin is boating on the Appo- mattox, lier chief characteristic is laugh- ing, and she always greets you with a hriehl smile. ALICE (iUL ' BBS DKNOHON. A ' lKGlNIA iMiiir year., ago .Mice bravely launched her frail bark on the urging tide of life at the N ' oniial School. A glance at her would c invini-e you that she is a pliable, amiable, little creature, but, She is not what she seems. L ' nder that calm exterior lies a Hery. combative nature, which especially shows itself when woman ' s suflfrage is being argued, for she is an enthusiastic sirffra- gette and a firm believer in the equality of the sexes. That far-away look, as if jjeering into the future, is the result of long ]danning for the many reforms she is going to work in her school. She is very scepti- cal ini the subject of love, and a firm ad- iicate of marriage on a business basis, hut she takes the greatest pains to see the beatrx as they pass through the reception hall on Simday nights. 30
