10 THE LLAMARADA it such a power in the student life, that college may be not only a factor for culture, but also for character. The simple chapel service is one of power and impressiveness. The reverent hush before the service, the perfect harmony of the service, and its adaptation to the spirit of the time as at Christmas and Easter, make such a beginning for the day as few girls are willing to forego. In the social life President Woolley- is no less active. She has time in the midst of her other duties, to re- ceive at receptions and in many other ways to show her interest in our • good times, by attending our class plays and even our basketball games. Her interest is jxist as strong in individual girls, and her memory of their faces and names wonderful. She realizes, however, when play should end and work begin, and in our work she would have us always remember the high ideals of scholarship for which the college stands. Her emphasis is upon the necessity not only of careful and accurate work but also of joyous work. Outside of college. President Woolley’s interests are many and varied. An educator herself, she is interested in whatever pertains to the education of women. She is a member of the association for ac- crediting women in foreign universities, of the American association for maintaining a woman’s table at Xaples, and of the College Entrance Examination board. She has time with her many other duties to work in her special subject and is a member of the Society of Biblical Literature and Exegesis and of the Religious Education Association. She is a loyal supporter of the American Institute of Social Service and the College Settlement Association. President Woolley’s personality impresses itself upon all who come in contact with her. Her loftv idealism is dominant in all her work and «■ carries us beyond the petty worries that may beset us. The warmest sympathy, the sunniest optimism, faith, and reverence mark her character. With her administrative and executive ability is joined the gracious dignity and breadth of culture of one who is always womanly as well as scholarly. None of us can go out from college without feel- ing that our lives have been fortified and enriched because we knew President Woolley.
