GRACE LILLIAN STAFFORD North Wjlkesboro, X. C. Let the world slip, let the world go, A fig for care, and a fig far iroe. Lillian has never let study interfere with her college course. Yet we will be willing to bet that few of the bookworms have gotten any more out of college life than Lillian has. By combining the campus course with that of sewing and cooking, she has kept a fair mixture of work and pleasure, and she has also seen to it that those Senior privileges were not given in vain. When others grumble and complain, turn to Lillian, who with her sunny disposition and jolly laugh, will prove a friend worth while INEZ CATHERINE WATKINS GoLDSBORO, N. C. The first great work, a task per- formed by few, Is that yourself may to yourself be true. One would have to go far to find a truer and better friend than Inez. Being of a reserved nature, her circle of friends may not be as large as some, but they are deep and lasting. Those who know her best, love her for her sweetness of disposition and loveliness of character, and count it a privilege to be numbered with her friends. Inez is a good student and a loyal worker in whatever pertains to college life.

BONNIE ESTELLE RAY Clinton, N. C. ilrm ml I was in lore again With the One Before the Last, Ami I smiled to greet the pleasant pain Of that innocent young past. How many ones before the last Bats can count remains and will always remain a mystery. We do know that she pines for the 8ist Division at present, and studies by spells. Another mystery is how Bats can keep a ear cm hand and make good marks. Was she born with an instinct of education? She says she ' s going to instruct others in the field of science. We know she ' ll do it well; and she ' ll be happy too, for she gives a cheerful note to the Class of ' 19. ELSIE PEARL RIDDICK ASHEVIIXE, X. C. • Tin glory of a firm, capacious mini . The old proverb says, If you wish a thing well done, you must do it yourself, but we say if you wish a thing well done, give it to Elsie, and she will always do it better than you could have done it your- self. Who but Elsie would have attempted Greek and Latin the same year? Capability? Yes. Ex- ecutive ability ' . ' Yes. Manage-ability? Why, she could manage the leaves off the trees. That ' s why we made her Business Manager of our Oak Leaves this year. But don ' t make the mistake of taking Elsie for a cold piece of intellectuality; you just ought to see her keep a whole table of girls laughing for hours, or hear her pick Castle on the River Rhine on her guit.
