Volume VI 23 Elizabeth Williams, 'I' 12, affirms that she came from 216 Cedar street, Corning, N. Y. Elizabeth is well worth our interest and we intend to look into the matter. Eva Cecilia Woodwell is too small a girl to live at 1639 Park street, N. W., Washington, D. C.

Bailey, Abbie Cogswell Barker, Eva R. Barton, Katherine Davis, Marinda Polly Davis, Harriet H. Dodge, Lil- lian R. Edmonds, Helen Evans, Nan J. Evans, Elizabeth L.

22 The Llamarada Winnifred Ross Teel, Kennebunkport, Maine, received the following lines: “ There was a young lady named Teel Whose head was enringed by a wheel. She will go to the Fair So Ferris won’t dare, For the crowd will all cry, give us Teel! Edith Olive Turner of Coventry, Conn., thinks that no classes will be graduated after 1900. Verdoy, N. Y., is the little hamlet which sent Edith Sutliffe Wade to join the Debating Society. What will become of that pride of our hearts, the Mandolin Club, when the hand of Bertha Belle Waite, 2 © X, twangs the strings at her last college concert? We will add in a choking voice that it is Adams, N. Y., which will reclaim her. An enthusiastic convention was held by neigh- boring towns in Masson, Mass., where it was finally decided that a resident of that city, Grace Ethel Web- ber, would adequately represent the federation at Mount Holyoke. The residents of 12S Franklin street, Westfield, Mass., watched with weeping eyes Maud Eleanor Webster leave her native burgh for Ilolyoke. They became reconciled when Maud joined the Debating Society. Marie Wolcott Welles, has had a busy life since leaving 27 Cedar street, Taunton, Mass. She has played on the Banjo Club, b-’oo, was president of her class, S- , and president of the Y. W. C. A., ’99-’00.

24 The Llamarada Florence Sargent sat in her ultra-neat room engaged in studying. It is characteristic of Florence that her room should be ultra neat, and that she should be thus engaged. A gentle knock came at the door and the bell-girl entered. “A gentleman awaits you below,” she an- nounced. “Who?” queried Florence. “He sent no card,” replied the girl. At this Florence was annoyed,— which likewise was characteristic of her. However, she carefully changed her skirt, took a clean handkerchief, fixed her hair; and finally after much deliberation she took her second best smile from the second drawer. She was very certain that any one who merited a first best smile would have sent up a card. This was extremely characteristic of Florence. She then descended the stairway, paused to adjust the smile and her best walk (also characteris- tic), and stepped daintily (very characteristic) for- ward. “I say!” shouted Harold Duncan, “ Doncher want ter buy some Sweet Home Soap and get a prize bedstead ?” And Florence bought the soap, which was the most characteristic thing she had done yet.
