THE McKENDREAN, 1931 Nell Carmichael, A.B., E. St. Lams Pres. Societas Classicas; Nature Cluh; Y.W. Cabinet ' 31; Education Cluh, Brilliancy is Nell ' s most outstanding trait, for she is strictly an A student. Al- though she has not lived on the campus, and had opportunities to enter into many activities, she has shown herself to be an earnest worker where chance afforded. May that indescribable sentiment that hinds our hearts in love for McKendree enrich our lives and ma e us strong, cheerful, and loyal to that which is best. — N. C. Vera Whitlock, B.M., E.

Couldst thou iyi vision see thyself the man God meant, Thou never more coiddst he the man thou art — content. — V.W. MiRZA Earth, A. B., Keysport, III. Greenville College, ' 28, ' 29. Very quiet and demure, Mirza delved deep into her studies and received grades which justified her efforts. Upon more intimate acquaintance she was real jolly, and exhibited reserve only at the proper time.
