oo NUR 5 SENIoRS — calm — gentle souls—seldom seen—deep in study—or what? Flitting about in gowns—imortar boards slightly askew. Practice teaching—and lesson plans—and Education—and high heels —and stockings—and hair in place. Had a grand time for four years—expect to keep it up. Worried about jobs—all set for careers (or Russian Grand Dukes )— given to offering advice from their wealth of experience and listening to problems. Seldom in chapel—or any- where—except Senior Cabaret, and Sen- ior Prom and Swing-in—A little senti- mental—feeling somewhat choky when they think of Hat Hunt—and May Play —and saddle shoes—But looking for- ward to Commencement. Ready for ac- tion—and glamour—all-knowing — out to win — determination — Prepared For Life:

IN MEMORIAM Mary Louise Dodge December Chird, Nineteen Hundred Chirty-right The sudden death on December 3, 1938, of Mary Louise Dodge brought the sense of a great loss to her many friends and deep sympathy for her bereaved family. Miss Dodge had rare qual- ities of mind and heart that bound people to her. She possessed the fine gift of friendship with quick understanding, generous sympathy, and unswerving loyalty. She gave to her family an unstinted devotion. Her literary interests matched her musical talent, and she lived in a choice world of beautiful appreciations. Her superior art as a teacher inspired her pupils with love for music and for their instructor We are thankful for her good life and for our privilege of sharing in it ELLEN C. SABIN Always with patience and generosity, Miss Dodge gave to her pupils from her talent and love for music. Unconsciously, to all students with whom she had contact, she gave of a lovable dis- position which quietly and happily radiated interest in each one. To all, she was an example of living—by her complete goodness of self and her fullness of life which she found beautiful through music and friendships. She is missed by those who knew and loved her and who benefitted by having been her students and friends. ELIZABETH RUEZ In the twenty-three years of her life in the college, Miss Dodge made for herself a place not to be filled and has left behind a quiet and lovely memory to be cherished; for the constant loyalty in the performance of her work; for the gracious gift of the beauty of her music; for the confidence and affection with which she inspired her students for whom she made life richer and more interesting; for the spirit of joy and comradeship which she shared with her colleagues; and for the deep, endur- ing loyalty and love which she gave her friends All these re- main to the custodians of her memory Frances W.
