A r.ady of Quality Ella is one of tlic few nR ' ni])crs of iur class who has not lieen nicknamed, probably liecanse she ' s so Ella-vated aiul (Hgnilied. She is not like other girls in that slie professes to liate l)oys and says she ' s not afraid of mice. She has a logical mind, for did not Dr. Jinnny himself once say that she deserved a feather in her cap ! Endowed with good looks, musical talent, inuisnal mental ability, and practical sense, she is indeed fortunate — this petite maiden. J, . E CARVI ' .k JOH.MSO.V, H. A., U A CH.M LOTTK. .N . C.

She is rutlier strong- willed, and, once convinced of a fact, takes her stand as a stone wall and heeds not the argu- ments of her classmates. Perhaps there ' s more truth than poetry in the following little rhyme: Who ' s so fair, who ' s so rare .As Miss Jane Johnson? Iler intellect clear, she knows no fear, .And she herself is a downright dear. 20

E P ELW£I S S MARY SANDERS HOWELL, B. A., II A CHARLOTTE, N. C. President Class. 1913- ' 14; Historian Class, 1914- ' 15; Vice-President Pierian IX-lta Society. Sense and Sensibility In every class there stand out a few girls who are horn leaders, and Sanders is one of these. She IS a girl whom all students admire, upon whom the faculty rely, and whose departure from Queens wdl leave a large vacancy. She is always in good spirits, very enthusiastic, and d)erally endowed with good looks. i?ut of all her gifts, the great est is her conversational powers— for only on rare occasions does she a low that tongue to cease! With such sjilendid ahihties, we predict that the future holds f( ir our classmate whatsoever she may demand. MARV WILLIAMS CARSON, B, A., II A fll.Mil.OTTE, N. C. Secretary and Treasurer Class, 1910- ' ll; Presi dent Class. 191 1 - ' 12. Lovey Mary We love her, not only for her smile, her look, and her way, hut for her sincerity, which is one of her strongest traits. With her charming per- sonality and sweet simplicity, Mary has made many friends during her college days. Not that her admirers are confined to Queens alone; indeed, someti mes we hecome alarmed at what seems to be a chronic state of heart trouble. However, we have come to the conclusion that this is caused by mere passing fancies. We might say quite a deal more about Mary, but we do not want to spoil so sweet a child. 19

U ell, you can l)c sure that Anne ' s there, and that it ' s lier ridiculous remarks and absurd carrvinss on that has caused the commotion. Having a cheery disposition, a laugh that ' s infectious, and a keen sense of humor, naturally she ' s always in demand. As for her views concerning matriniony, she leaves us in no doubt, but very emphaticallv declares that she ' s tired of writing Miss . nne draham. When we look back and realize how much joy she has added to our college days, with dee]) feeling we say. liless her be;irt. MARTHA LOUISE JAMISON. I!. A., n A CHARLOTTE, N. C.

Our Mulual l-rieiid A Martha, as we know, is ofttimes cum- bered with many cares. and this Martha, as Editor-in-Chief of the Annual with its thousand and one petty duties, is no exception to tiie rule. Howeyer, she keeps her head, takes it seriously, and yet comes out of it all, the same ha])p y .Martha. Her energy and enthusiasm are conta ' - gious, so naturally her very presence will always make things go. Tactful and winsome in her manner. Martha is a wholesome, genuine type of the Southern college girl at Queens. 21
