Susie Williams Cowles, B.L., n A Charlotte, North Carolina Class Poet ' 09- ' 10, ' 2- ' 3: Annual Staff 12-13. And as the bright sun glorifies the slf . So is her face illumined rvith her ejie It is useless to introduce Susie to you. She is known and loved by all. She has been with us during Freshman, Junior, and Senior years; but attended C. F. W. in Columbia during her Sophomore year. She is not very strong for spelling, but is some spieler in Psychology. Mary Ella Bangle, B.M., 11 A Charlotte, North Carolina Her gentle speech and modest rva s Left others to accord her praise Although she has been with us but one year, by her gentleness and grace she has won a place in our hearts, and we are proud to claim her as a member of the Class of 1913. Our one regret is that she lived out in town and, consequently, we do not know her as well as we should like. Our prophet predicts that she rhall continue her success as a musician, which she has begun so well here, and shall become one of the country s great concert pianists. This is mere con- jecture; but, nevertheless, whatever her fate may be, she will always have the support and affect ' on of her entire class.

O, she ' s ga ! O, she ' s siveel, O, she ' s a wise maid and discreel, O, she ' s rare, and O, she ' s fair. She is everv wa i complete. As a country grieves over the loss of its land- mark, so will P. C. mourn over the loss of one Vk ' hom everyone loves and admires. Beverly first came before tjie notice of all as a winner in basket-ball. She not only carried off all the honors in athletics, but has held a first place in the hearts of all P. C. maidens since, and her name has always appeared in the Annual as one of the most attractive and most lovable girls. Even though she is leaving P. C. this year, her winning ways will never be forgotten.

She is preliy to rvallf rviih, and Tvitiy to iall( wilh. And pleasant, too, to thinl( on Our dainty, attractive, petite RuTHIE has tripped her carefree happy way through her four years of col- lege life here with us. She speaks well in modern lan- guages and English, and is a star in the gym down- stairs; but she finds the exercises in Dr. Bridges ' mental gymnasium rather more difficult sometimes. Ruth ' s voice is her most priceless possession. We, her classmates, expect in future years to be even still more proud of her than we are now, for we are looking forward to her rivaling even Cluck as one of the foremost sopranos of the world.

Lucy Boyce, B.M.. n a Gastonia, North Carolina Graceful and fair, Ulfe a being of light We regret that the two short years which LuCY B. has made so bright for us by her gracious presence, her beautiful face, her graceful form, and her cheery voice, are so rapidly drawing to a close; but we know that wherever she may go she will prove a strikmg illustration of the fact that a thing of beauty is a joy forever. Being a person who seldom worries over the cares and duties of school life, she spends mo;t of her week-ends at home, where she enjoys life immensely. She is always ready for fun, and has the peculiar though valuable accomplishment of looking so innocent when caught in mischief that the captor cannot bel eve that the injured-look ' ng maid has ever done the least wrong. Ask her about some of her thrilling experiences on Fifth Avenue. She is Not such a star on harmony But she pla )s the piano charmingly Betty Dixon King, B.M , n A Summerville, Georgia Secretary Y. W.

As fair and musical As bright Apollo ' s lute stringed Jvith his hair An extra special edition of royalty; as yet un- decided in which of several hearts she will reign su- preme. When she made her debut on the basket-ball field, in the fall of 1912, she at once laid claim to a place on the Sen or class team, by virtue of her grit and quickness. Strengthening this claim each day, by the end of the season she held the positions of forward on class and all-class teams. You should hear Betty ding a grand piano (or anything which doesn t suit her) ! She goes at it as if ;he meant business. Never- theless, wherever she may be in after years, she will always be a queen among women. Txvenly-Four
