But though she has suitors, she treats them the same.

Mary Carson Platonian Glee Club, ’23; Literary Contest. 22; Reflector StafT. ’23; G. A. C.. ’23 Love Pirates of Hawaii. Of all the nice girls, all the sweetest and best.

Maye Pollock Platonian Pandora’s Box, '21; Ghost of An Idea, '22: Love Pirates of Hawaii. '22; Glee Club. '23; Green Stockings. '23; Orchestra. '23; G. A. C., '23. If I had wishes ten and one, I'd always wish to have some fun; I’d rather play and dance and sing And smile and laugh than anything. Clarence Olson Platonian Oration. '20; Pandora's Box. '21; In the Land of Nowhere, '22. Delicate tastes in many lines. A flightier temperament one never finds; But always trying to help the rest. That they may do their very best.
