E P ELWEI S S 1 4 MARY YORKK JOHNSTON, 1!. A., II A EXPRESSION GRADUATE CHARLOTTE, X ' . C. Vice-President. 1911- ' 12; Historian, 1912- ' 13 and 1913- ' 14; Varsity Basket-Iiall, 1913- ' 14; President Atliletic Association, 19I4- ' 1S: Athletic Editor of Edki.we iss, 19I4- ' 1S; President Stu- dent liody, 1914- ' 15. The Guardian Angel Coming to Queens when a little girl in short dresses, Mary Vorke has passed through all the nps and downs of college life and linally reached the land of promise, Seniordoni, ' She is enthusiastic and thoroughly interested in the col- lege, and, although a good student, seldom do we see her in a serious mood — not even a logic test disturbs the even tenor of her way. As the president of the student body she has shown her efticiency and ability, and we feel that she is a fair representative of 191S ' s best. JULIA HARRIS, B. A., II A CHARLOTTE, N. C. Treasurer Class, 1913- ' 14; Vice-President Class, 1914- ' 1S : Prophet Class. 1914- ' 1S. Tlic Well lleloved Julia is the most dignified of all the dignified Seniors. Her pow ' er of concentration is envied, especially by the memliers of Senior Study Hall, and the result of this is plainly seen on recita- tion, when she answers questions that fairly daze the rest of us. In spite of her seeming reserve, there often arises in her a sense of the ridiculous so keen that she even enjoys a joke on herself. .Although thoroughly surprising, Dame Rumor has it that Julia, upon leaving the guardianship of Queens College, will be one of the first to enter the state of matrimony. i 1 f 23

She ' s a faithful worker, a thorough optimist, and one of the most likeable girls of our class, ffer name shows her position in the social world, and, like Abou Ben Adhem, we put her down as a lover of her fellowDic ;. KATHERIKE WHITFIELD KENDRICK, B, A., n A CHARLOTTE, N. C. ■ ' What Katie Did! Attention, girls, Kate ' s going to speak! Listen! for you know- she has something important to say. A great change has been wrought in Kate — before the statistics were taken she had more to say than any girl at Queens, but now her words are rare and few and far between. She ' s an expert at getting around the faculty, and we all know it takes brains to be a good bluffer. All joking aside, Kate is a tine old girl, with a big heart and a generous hand. 22

E P E L W£ 1 S S ■ ETIIF.L TROTTER, B. A., n A CirAKLClTTK, N. C. I lii py-Co-Liicky ' ' s. she lias an alnindance of curls, and they are every one natural, too ! When this little curly-haired girl lirst entered college, we soon discovered that she was one of the few who possessed a psychological mind, and although slow to anger, when aroused she will give you a piece of the same. Ethel is a born housekeeper, and gifted in culinary arts: and, as this is a very effective way of reaching a young man ' s heart, we feel that her fate is sealed, WILLIAM VASIITI HOGGARD, B. A., n A WINDSOR, N, C. Varsity liasket-liall Team, 1910- ' ll and 1911- ' 12; Captain Varsity liasket-l ' .all Team, 1914- ' 15. The Jay Bringer Who would think that Vashti, of the golden hair and merry laugh, was a serious student of stern history! Yes, Vashti rarely worries, and, in s])ite of her historical work, linds time to take a prominent part in athletics. Indeed, she is happiest and at her liest when she has a basket- ball tight under her arm ! The radiance of her hair is reflected in her bright disposition, which is not weighed down even by Ethics, but ever bubbles uj) in a way that wins all hearts. 24
