You will always find a hearty welcome in Beit's room, whether you are a lonely student in search of a cup of coffee, or a little dog that wants a puppy biscuit, or His Majesty, King Sandy, the Only. Formerly— Recreation work. Friends' Hospital for Nervous and Mental Diseases. Frankford. Philadelphia, Penna. After graduation—Salesman and draughtsman. American Forestry Service. Anna Elizabeth Brill Mcrion, Penna. A smile for all. a greeting glad. An amiable, jolly way she had. Anne is always happy—even when the Buick has to be jacked up during noon hour. Changing tires is just one of Anne's heavy accomplishments. She finds double digging easy and can swing an axe like Abe Lincoln. Nevertheless, we know she is a woman at heart because climbing ladders is not in her line at all and because many an intermission has found the dormitory enjoying one of her delicious cakes. Formerly -Student. Shipley School, Bryn Mawr. Alter graduation—Manager, flower shop. Martha B. Chadwick Harrisburg, Penna. Beautiful as sweet. And young as beautiful, and soft as young. And gay as soft, and innocent as gay! Marcic could stop a clock by just smiling. Even the bees appreciate her colour and beautiful complexion so much that they cannot leave her alone. Marcie's ruling passion is entomology and in this field we know she will be most successful. All who have known Marcic have loved her and when she leaves all will miss her. Even little Peter will have lost his ’’best girl.” Formerly—Student, Birmingham School. Birmingham. Penna. After graduation Advance work in entomology. T welve

School of Horticulture Jesse T. Craven New York City Hard she labored, long, and well. When Till leaves Ambler two outstanding sources of entertainment will be lost to the school: the finest line of coon stories in captivity and a rich soprano voice made famous by “Seven Long Years in State’s Prison.” Till is of the type that does things without saying so much about it and the school will certainly miss her in the vegetable garden, the poultry plant, and at the cottage. Formerly—Assistant. Denver Public Library. Denver. Colo. After graduation— Frances Ely Hawkins Bronxville, N. Y. She is a maid of artless grace. Gentle of form, and fair of face. “Let me tell you a better one!” says Happy, and she does, whether you believe it or not—and you don’t, often. Mother Goose would get “all'of'a'twittcr, don’t you know,” if she wcie introduced to Happy’s nonsense rimes. Then there’s Nipper and a certain alhnight search—but Happy will tell you a better one. Formerly—Student, St. Mary's School. Peekskill. N. Y. After graduation—Home gardener. Mildred B. Hubbard Dover, N. H. She has a way that's all her own. “Moses! A name that makes you stop, look, and listen. “They call me Moses because I am so slow, Moses says, and we would add but sure.” What Moses docs, she does well. What Moses strives to accomplish, she accomplishes completely, even when that is a matter of playing bridge with young men. We remember Moses most for her cacti, each of which she knew so well and cared • for so tenderly that we suspect they sometimes shyly breathed their love and gratitude to her as she patiently brushed off mealy bugs. Formerly— High School Student. After graduation—Assistant. Right Nursery, Ambler, Pcnna. Thirteen
