i6 The Llamarada Franklin, Mass., claims in conjunction with six other towns to have been the birth place of Elizabeth Meredith Dunning. The family of Winifred Luella Fairbanks pre- pared their child for College at 166 Chestnut street, Gardner, Mass. Alice Carey Field, sometimes known by the tender name of “ Bug,” firmly decided at her home 39 Richards street, Worcester, Mass., to favor Hol- yoke as the successful candidate among the compet- ing Colleges. Holyoke will never regret the effort she made. There is a report that Frances Richmond Foster, 'I' Q, seriously injured her vocal organs by attempting to speak the day she was born, at Hingham, Mass. Her disappointment at that time was so great that it prejudiced her against ever repeating the experiment. The only exception on record is believed to be the occasion of seconding a motion in the Debating Society, during March of this year. Marion Foster is as different from Frances as 316 Central street, Auburndale, Mass., is from Hing- ham. Gertrude Elizabeth Gaylord has never seen fit to leave her native hearth in South Hadley, Mass. Nineteen, Elm street, Rockville, Conn., was a scene of profound significance when the Gilnacks named their infant daughter Lilia Eliza. Myrabel Josephine Gould tried Wellesley Col- lege as an experiment her Freshman year, but the experience turned her gleeful steps towards Holyoke.

Volume VI 15 One hundred and sixteen Atlantic street, Jersey City, N. J., sent East, Clintie Delafied Curtis, early known as P. G. Curtis. With application Clintie will make a business success as a drummer. She will find her name clearly printed in the list of the Debat- ing Society. It took “ corner Court and State streets, Castine, Maine,” to evolve Miss Pauline Faye Devereux for the Debating Society. Pauline is a descendent from Lord Devereux and is the belted daughter of a hun- dred Earls. Ida Marion Dougherty, H I A, broke through the underbrush of Fairport, N. Y., and hastened to what seemed to her the metropolis of South Hadley. She had heard that at Mount Holyoke real talent and true worth are justly appreciated. Ida has had some disappointment in this line, but is not yet discour- aged, and means to try her genius next year on enlightened New York. Helen Douglas, was carried to her home 410 Wayne street, from the railroad wreck which occur- red several years ago Peoria, 111. Helen never grew, to her natural size in consequence, although by rea- son of a most unique mental development, she was admitted to the Debating Soceity. Isabel Rich Drew, 2 0 X, took the train for Hol- yoke from the Mosaic town of Sharon, Mass. The Presidency of the class of ’99, 97-98, made a recu- perative trip to Hawaii necessary. However, she felt no desire to establish a mission station there, and returned to us to fulfill her duties in the Debating Society.

Volume VI 7 Myrabel came from 51 High street, Greenfield, Mass. Minnie Almira Graham, who spends her vaca- tions at 355 Market street, in the little town of Lock- port, N. Y., has distinguished her family by her diplomatic finesse as chairman of the senior photo- graphy committee. Walpole is the Homeric name of the village in Massachusetts, which reared Eleanor Wilmot Guild. Eleanor’s bon mots will be handed down for a gen- eration. Harriet Louise Hale had nothing to do with naming her birthplace, Ottumwa, Iowa. Otherwise she would not have been allowed to remain on the Glee Club for the past two years. Grace Twemlow Hammond, Editor of Llama- rada, ’9S- 99, resides on the flats at Fishkill-on-Hud- son, N. Y. Grace Adeline Howe appears so constantly with Winifred Fairbanks that she has probably often invited Winifred to spend the summer with her at 291 Chestnut street, Gardner, Mass. We met Verena Huntress with her guitar one day last winter, and she told us most impressively that she belonged to the Debating Society. Her room-mate says she was born at 20 Woodside avenue, Amherst, Mass., and has been eagerly negotiating with President Harris for an annex. Some one has seen Helen Jackson of Andover, Mass., playing on the Mandolin Club. Cornelia Emma Juliand expects her parents to
