COLETTE BYRNES, E. de M. St. Lawrence Academy New York, New York Colette has the warm tang of gingerbread. She has the magical gift of intense interest in trifles which the more obtuse might pass by with upturned nose.

Her ' s is no idle gossip, only the converse of an alert mind. Irma has a purpose in life, and nof the least of her purposes is fo make ofhers happy.
