One of the solid, grown up members of the class, Cecelia has impressed us with her quiet domestic virtues and her mature common sense. u Her bubbling humor and dynamic energy amply com- pensate her slight stature. Always ready to be of assistance, she was an important member of many committees-especially in preparing refreshments for the dances. Among her extra- curricular interests she enjoys ice-skating, archery and speeding around Gladstone in her '39 Plymouth. The coming years will see even a fuller development of the sterling traits we have noticed - and a pet phrase of hers will insure her safely in many of lifeis hardships: When you walk through a strom-keep your head up high . . . The mirror of all courtesy

Our class artist, winner of a four year scholarship to the Mount, has shown remarkable talent and exquisite taste in the world of fashion, and even the art of the moderns receives an intelligent understanding from her. Although known for her reserve, Madeline has been a most cooperative participator in school activities, especially when there was decorating to be done- for a dance. Talent is not limited to the artistic field, however, for she is also an able writer, and has an appreciative ear for semi-classical music and poetry. All of this, coupled with a philosophy of life as ulf at first you don't succeed, try, try again, will ensure for her a very successful future. We are sure her plans include the field of art to which she will certainly be able to contribute generously. Gentle of slbeeclo, bene cent of mimi

Rossi Be1t,,' as she is known to us, has kept us in good spirits by her amiable sense of humor and ability in uttering witticisms. Easy-going and not easily disturbed, she has turned up with a helping hand whenever the need arose. Un the basketball court we have frequently witnessed her agility and sportsmanship, and many times she has saved the day for us. Contrasted with her athletic talents is Roberta's skill with the paint hrushg whenever decorations were needed she was sure to be one of the first to volunteer, In another line, she has pleased her schoolmates with a special punch she has connected for a few of the dances. Her warm and generous nature will leave Bert never at a loss for friends and we are sure that her future in the field of Science will he very successful. All human power is cz compound of time and patience. aa.
