Some people have the knack of making friends with everyone thej ' meet, and Mary must be classified with these people. She knows practically everybody in school and has a host of sincere friends. We would like to mention her famous cry which nightly sounded throughout the halls — Hasn ' t anybody got anything to eat? Sirall of stature, eyes of blue, Most mischievous person we ever knew, Always .iolly, always bright, Playing pranks from morn ' til night. But friends .judge not from what I say. That this little maid is giddy and gay. For she can be serious, and ' s very intel- lectual too, A friend worth having — is it not true? 18

Speaking of Grand Opera — that reminds me, did you ever hear Marcella sing? or did you ever see her act? Some day you ' ll be seeing her on the stage or maj ' be you ' ll be playing one of her records on your Victrola: that is, if you can get her to give up her Kindergarten work. But she is such a splendid teacher, it will be a pity if she does change her profession. IDA M. BAENHAET CALLAWAY, VA. Jefferson Debating Society. Slow but sure is here proved to be a good motto, for it makes a teacher loved by all her pupils and friends. 17

ESTHER BOWLES CARDWELL, VA. Reporter of Ruffner Debating Society. MOZELLE ELIZABETH BRADEN PAEONIAN SPRINGS, VA. Argus Literary Society; Nonpariel Ten- nis Club; Corresponding Secretary of Y. W. C. A.; 191.5-16; ?— ! ; Advafiol Cullesumercents. This quiet, meek-looking little girl is not what her looks make you think, for she is full of life and fun when you know her well. I must tell you this about her, she is teaching in Hopewell and I think this shows you, plainly enough what a brave, strong girl she is. We know there ' s not another like her in name or in person, she ' s just the kind of girl you would like to meet and have for a friend. Quiet and dignified, but always ready for a good time. She teaches in the Second Year High School and is never seen without a string of her pupils at her heels.
