CHLETTK ALICE I.A ll.A It HE SKteisville. V. X'a. THACY CYItlS LILLY Hluelichl. V. A'n. Mr. Lilly is a type of student widely different from the average. It can not be said that he has any special love for school books and class-room work. But, this Is no sign that he can not master whatever he undertakes: for he has a mind that grasps more from observation, than many book-worms get from study. Lilly Is a man who knows the world; he knows, moreover, what It takes to succeed In the world, and his tact will carry him farther than many a good student’s knowledge. No one is more sincere than he and the loss of a class friend affects him deeply. This Jolly, buxom maid emigrated from Belgium when she was eight years of age. Hence she Is as proficient in French as in English, which accomplishment served to good purpose in tin- French play during the Carnival. She is fond of writing interesting notes In her mother tongue, which puzzle the less proficient French students. She Is especially interested in the early history of our state and the pioneers. She thinks Boone was the bravest of these, judging from his descendants. (JAIt.XRTTE E. FI LES Huntington, V. X’a. C.arnottc is a refined, dignified. Senior girl, who has very high Ideals. In the four years that she has been with us. she lias not found among her many admirers, a man worthy of her charms. Her friends are iuelinod to think that some worthy one will come from the West on June 12. and we shall not see nor hear of her any more. Her future occupation will be managing a man who is manager oi a western farm. Page 24

VAI. CI-AKK MAIIOOI) Oak llill. V. Va. The work of this member of Marshall’s greatest class is not to be judged by the noise she makes, yet when occasion demands. as in Senior Knglish. her voice can be heard distinctly in all parts of the study hall. All are agreed that she adds much to the good looks of the Class, as well as to the high standard of its work. MKLIIA ANN HOGKItS Charleston, V. Va. This young lady looks to the business world as the scene of her future labors. She has not decided whether to locate in her home county, or in that of “Taylor.” We sometimes believe that she favors the latter. Re that as it may, we are sure her sterling qualities will bring her success wherever she goes. I I.I.A ETHKL KICKKTT .Mercer's Bottom, V. Va. Little Willie, as she is called by her best friends, is one of those dear quiet girls who thinks more than she speaks, yet she occasionally delights us with genuine wit and humor. Of ail the studies in the normal course she is most interested in Domestic Science and Agriculture; not because she expects to teach only those subjects hut—suppose we ask her. Page 23

IIELKX CL AltKK Huntington, V. Vn. If you desire a curly-headed, blue-eyed, young, impetuous damsel for a friend, here she is. It is impossible to lind in Marshall a more whimsical person. Although she tries to appear dign'fied and solemn as befitting a Senior, she is at times afflicted with spells of Freshman behavior. This we quite excuse, since she Is only sweet sixteen. She is particularly fond of French, corresponding with young men only in that language. It is impossible, however, to tell where her heart Is. as her chief aim in life is to keep as many as possible in suspense. Some times her heart is Steele.” YKKXA V. DASSON VILLE Spring Creek, V. Ya. A demure, quiet little maid—to all but her most intimate friends—seems this studious young lady. The Krosophian Literary Society and the Y. W. C. A. are both greatly strengthened by her loyal presence, and her influence for good is silently felt wherever she is known. The Lewisburg Seminary once boasted of her attendance, but we are all glad she changed her mind. Oh, lucky characteristic of woman.! LULU McKISSOX Sistersville. V. Yn. Here is another one of our many loyal Erosophians, and the one upon whom rests the honor of being the essayist in the Inter-Society Contest. She is one of our best students and most dignified Seniors. The poet must have been thinking of her when he said: None knew thee but to love thee, Nor named thee but to praise. Page 25
