Here’s a motto, just her fit— Laugh a little bit. Here is one of our day student who is not at all pretentious and assuming but one who when called upon to serve, serves well. Mary is always cheerful and ready to talk at any time. She may seem to be a “happy-go-lucky” sort of person upon first meeting but she has proven to be earnest and sincere in every way. Her plans at present are to use her domestic science course in the school room, but “the best laid plans of mice and men ga’ng aft aglee.” A very good motto it is, for Mary is always happy and jolly. Her laughter is known by all and envied by many. We hardly know what kind of a future to predict for her. She sings, plays, paints and even dances, but that which she likes most is the preachers, doctors, profes¬ sors and old bachelors. It is hard to tell just what Mary will do when she leaves Queens, but no matter, for her many talents and cheery smile will win for her a worth-while place in anything.

It ' s awfully nice too when one of our day stu¬ dents comes out to spend her Senior year in the dormitory. Sarah Locke is one of our truest girls. She takes things as they come along and always comes out victorious. Gay-hearted, lovable, witty, and whimsical characterize our Sarah Locke. She has a big heart which holds love and friendship for every one. Her sweet disposition has just enough rascality in it to make her the good pal we all know. No telling what Sarah will do after she leaves Queens, anything from teaching kindergarten kiddies to living in the White House. Success to you ! Little Bess, always so precise; Precious, Bess, speaking with such spice Funny, Bess, conscientious, too; Happy, Bess, almost never blue; Naughty, Bess, when she wants to be; Saintly, Bess, just like you and me; Brilliant, Bess, never breaks a rule; Senior. Bess, cutest girl in school ! Page Twenty-five Mildred Campbell, A . B . Margaret Ciiason, H . B . Aberdeen, N. C. Durham, N. C.

The art of knowing when to speak and when to keep silent has reached perfection in Mildred. When she speaks every one listens for she always has something worth while to say. If you have ever a difficult task, which requires thought, con¬ scientious labor, and ability to perform it, let Mildred do it for then you are certain that it will be well done.

More gifts than any one can count On Margaret dear they seem to mount. The gods were good, we ll all admit When her small head they tried to fit. Of beauty none her equal is, Of music her own privilege, it is To charm her listeners when she plays Those sweet old college melodies. Xow some might think that that is all. But not our Margaret, whom we call To help us, and she does her best, Where eats concerned, you know the rest; She’s labored on her model home Proud be the one who’ll share her throne.

Jt is the steady, faithful girl like Wilma, always dependable, who keeps things moving ever in the progressive path. Sincerity is detected in her very manner, and once she under¬ takes a task, no matter how difficult, one is confident of its accomplishment. She who quietly labors for the best day by day, entitling herself to honors which often pass unproclaimed, of her we shall expect to hear noble things in the years to come.

Even though her “tongue may be loose at both ends’ everybody on the campus knows her and loves to be with her for where Nell is there is no room for grouchiness, or the blues for she car¬ ries a supply of sunshine and laughter around with her. And because of her ability and willing¬ ness to take the responsibility of leadership as well as to serve in the most insignifeant spot there is no campus activity where Nell is not needed: lead a discussion group: direct a Y. W. party; solicit funds for the Senior Class; advise and sympathize with the dignified Senior or home¬ sick Freshman; play basketball—she does any and all of them. Her ability as student has not fallen behind her qualities of popularity and leadership for she leads in class work. We are sure that success awaits Nell in life as she has had it in college. Page Twenty-seven One would liave to go a long way to discover a finer girl than Anne. With her sweet disposi¬ tion and genuine friendliness she has been able to win the whole student body as her friends. She is truly a leader among her schoolmates and one whose opinion is respected at all times on all subjects. Anne ' s smile covers all of her five feet, six inches and is as contagious as can be. That ' s why she finds the world such a fine place to live in and why she can usually convince other people the same way. The niche she has occu¬ pied here will be hard to refill. Were to write about her as easy as to love her my troubles would vanish in the air. This space is too small for all of her virtues, so let us speak of her predominating characteristic— beauty. It charms us all, and more wonderful than that, it is deeper than the skin. A friend, sincere, and true; always willing to give a help¬ ing hand in time of need. A wear-for-ever girl, whom any one is fortunate to have as a friend. To you success is due. Annik Hamiter, A. B. Pinevili,E, N. C. T T A, O. O., K 0 Kntered Queens from Mitchell, ' 22; V. W. C. A.

She laughs and the world laughs with her. Her music, which she produces on both organ and piano, is as charming as her personality which we have admired from a distance for four years. The diligent pursuit of her talents has kept her too much in the music building and we feel that we have missed much by not knowing her better. Her name, we know, will lie well- known in the music circles of America and most likely abroad, and when it is we shall be so proud to say, “ h ! she was a member of our class! Rubye came to us from N. t . ( . Y . in 21 . She is the girl who always meets you with a smile, and in that smile there seems to he some¬ thing that cotints, for she is liked by every one. She is ever ready to aid a friend. Her chief characteristics are sincerity and friendliness; wor¬ ry is unknown to her. One of her ambitions is to be a great biology teacher. Guess the other one! Anyway we wish her the best of fortune. Page Twenty-nine Beulah Holmes, B. M. Councils, N. C. z k r, ii a, o. o.

No matter where our ways may lead. Or what may be the age. We know that we’ll be sure to read, In glaring headlines ’cross the page. The name of our sweet classmate true, Whose voice has charmed us all. With its melodious cadence, few Once hear and don’t recall, A hit she makes in plays en masque, Whatever part she takes, To tell the truth, what’er the task, A grand success she makes. We are sorry Manira has been with us only a year, for the short sample we have had of her company makes us realize how much we have missed. A peep at her honors from a nother school assures us that Queens is not the only college which will miss Manira’s loyal support, co¬ operation and cheerfulness. We hope that Manira will carry home with her as favorable an impres¬ sion of the “North Carolinians’ as we have formed of “Texans.” Wherever she may stray in future days she carries with her our best wishes for all success and happiness.

An all-round good girl whom Queens is proud to call her daughter. She leads her classes and leads the fun. She can work while it is work time, and play when it is time for play. We drink to you Mina, dear girl; you have won our love, admiration, good will, and best wishes for the best life has to offer. If you want anything done and done well, just go to Mary; for in school she is an excellent stu¬ dent, and out of school she is always ready for a good time. An honor student with the jovial disposition which she possesses is an unusual combination; that is why Mary’s absence is missed so when more interesting things keep her away from class meetings. Any one who can make credit under Dr. Shewmaker needs no “Here ' s to your success, for by that fact she is assured success even as Mary is. Page Thirty-one Emma Ledford, A. B. Charlotte, N.

Emma is one of those girls with a big heart, likable and easy-going, the same every time you see her. We thought last year we would lose her, for she had “other ends in view, ' but she decided to come back and graduate with a good class. Emma does not spend more time with us than is necessary so we know her best in the class¬ room. There she stands four-square, and seems to have some easy way of making credit. But she does not like to be bothered with too much work, and says that tomorrow can take care of itself. “Beauty is truth, truth beauty.” And this is our Mildred, for you see she is one of the truest of the Blue and Blue, and one of the fairest—our May Queen. This Annual also proclaims Mildred and is worthy of her, for she is just as smart as she is pretty, and her friendliness and capability run a close race. Beginning with the class, she has ever been faithful in all things, and has loved and given her best for the sake of her classmates and her Alma Mater. Page Thirty-two Annie Parks MoorE, A. B.

She is al¬ ways courteous, kind, and sweet, never too busy to lend a helping hand to a friend: “unselfish service”—is her motto. She has been unusually successful in her college career, never failing to meet ' the highest mark in any undertaking. Queens has never had a daughter quite so loyal, quite so true, and with her she sends forth her highest standards and ideals. “A. P.,” we proph¬ ecy success for you. Anne Robinson, B. S.

All her fellow students agree that she is best-all-round and every one knows she is lov¬ able. Original, too! but she really isn’t a freak as her nick-name would indicate. The many of¬ fices Freak has held are proof of her popularity and she is a versatile girl, too, for there is no place in school she does not fit. She is prominent in every phase of school life whether it be in Y. W. C. A. Cabinet, Student Government, Ath¬ letics or any other place on our campus. Anne is a girl in whom wit, humor, brilliance, common sense, and a true altruistic spirit are blended perfectly Page Thirty-three Olive Scarratt, B. S. Charlotte, N. C. n a, b x, o. O.

We know not half the work she’s done.” Busy every minute, managing anything from the Senior class to the Friskies. One would have to travel a long way to. find any one more capable than Olive. Other words that describe her are friendliness, fairness, squareness, and originality. Whatever she sets out to accomplish is always completed and done well. Due also to her optimistic nature, energy, and determination we expect to continue hearing great things of our president. Sara has been declared the most sincere girl on the campus and she truly deserves the honor. But this by no means is her only good quality. Her dependability and capability have made her a leader while at Queens and assure her a place of leadership wherever she goes. She is modest, kind-hearted, generous and courteous. Home Economics is her “specialty’’ and from all reports she has attained very high efficiency along this line. Here’s to Sara as she puts this accomplish¬ ment into practice in real life, wherever it may be. Page Thirty-four Bernice Teal, A . B. Clio, Alabama r 2, T T A, O. O. Sara Thomas, B. S. Ridgeway, S.

Before she had been here long, Bernice gained recognition because of her great athletic prowess. She easily won a place on the class teams and varsity as well. But it has been proven that her ability does not center altogether in athletics; she is also a good student. Bernice has won many friends on account of her sunny disposition and admirable character. In spite of the fact that she has always been fond of sweets, Bernice has lately developed a taste for lemons. Time will reveal the outcome of this change. “Queens Blues’’ Reporter, ' 23; Associate Editor “Queens Blues,” ’24; Secretary Student Govern¬ ment Association, ’24; Secretary N. C. C. P.

South Carolina has made no finer contribution to the Old North State than Sara. Popularity, efficiency, and lovableness are her chief charac¬ teristics. Success in all her undertakings, whether they be affairs of the heart, or managing North Hall, has been continuously manifested. Her beau¬ tiful brown eyes have succeeded in captivating all who know her. She is planning great things for the future, but somehow, we cannot picture Sara as a teacher. We believe that the charm of the “Magnolias” will prove too great, and that the profession will not have this new member at the next annual roll call. Page Thirty-five Daisy W ilson, H. E.

You have heard of that old song, “Daisies Won ' t Tell 1” It proves that there is something in a name after all for Daisy can keep any secret that you tell her. She is told many, thus easing many weary hearts and gaining as many friends. The youngest member of our class, pretty, demure and equally as charming. An old-fashioned “story-book girl, for whom we all have the greatest admiration and value nig.ily as a c’ass- mate. When hearts are true Few words will do.’’ Not every one has the pleasure of really know¬ ing Marie but those that have been associated with her intimately know she is a true blue queen. All the rare qualities of kindness, thoughtfulness and gentleness will be found wrapped within her to the joy of all her friends. She is gentle in manner and ever ready to do her share of work. It is said “that tranquil people are those that accomplish much, so. Marie, we are looking for ward to a great future for you. Page Thirty-six Zelma Mae Paxton, B. S. Charlotte, N. C. r 2, B X “I’ll be merry, I’ll be free, I’ll be sad ior nobody.” Bubbling over with fun, that is Zelma. Her first element of attraction is her winning smile. Her school spirit together with her care-free disposition makes an impression upon every one with whom she comes in contact. With her music she has charmed many and we predict a brilliant musical career for her. She is a girl who inspires her friends to do bigger, better things and wins their love without the least trouble. Zelma is a “chum” whom we will never forget. Page thirty-seven Happy Days The days of youth we count the best Are these sweet days so richly blest From Wisdom’s golden store. Now life ' s day dawns, with rosier hue. Over a world so strange and new Which never was ours before. We love tlice, happy college days, But these gay hearts, whose carefree lays Have often cheered these halls, The graver joys of life now face.

Looking Forward l X SET faded out across the reaches of a purring sea and melted into dusk; one star hung silver sharp in a lilac sky above the craggy coast as I strolled along, heedless of the reckless waves heating against the rock- rimmed fortress of the mighty Pacific. Dreams of the past and future vied with each in an undecisive struggle, until outstanding memories of college days found me hopelessly stranded on a friendly boulder under the bewitching spell of twilight at the Golden Gate. The sky grew darker, but for a moment only, for myriads of twinkling stars lighted the heavenly steeps and swayed my fancy through the misty avenues of many different worlds. Queens College and the class of ’25 met me on every turn in each realm of the amiable realities of 1935. Every girl passed before me in turn with a record of her life’s burdens and responsibilities. Sweet strains of music like rippling waters aroused me to the realization that I was a wee mite in an audience of seven thousand in the Metropolitan Opera House, where Annie Maye Hayes held the crowd spellbound. While there I learned that Beulah Holmes was making a tour of the continent where she would sing for the President of France. Then, as if by magic, I met Margaret Chason, who was leading a Bohemian life as the beautiful model of a famous artist. Unceremoniously, I was swept across the continent and found myself seated in a dingy little office listening to Manira Hoon’s account! of her remarkable career in natural research and Mexican anthropology. While thus intoxicated with Manira’s fluent elaborations of how she would find the missing link I was reluctantly carried away into the “sanctum sanatorium” of the art world where a great crowd was surging about the entrance to the Louvre. My ear caught the deep intonations and reverbations of Bernice Teal’s well-known phrases as she played the part of auctioneer for Mary Bankhead, whose vast collection of portraits were overflowing their quarters in the museum. But finding it impossible to find my way through the “maddening crowd,” I asked the traffic cop to aid me; none other than Rubye Hill, who helped me make my way past an aeroplane bearing a foreign ensign which led my curiosity to scrutinize two dusty travelers who proved to be Bessie Brake and Elmina Howard. These daring explorers soon convinced me that they had made a hit with the business men of Mars, where they had been selling the new time-adjusting machine, late invention of the prominent scientist, Olive Scarratt, which machine was guaranteed to lengthen day or night fifty to eighty per cent, according to the caliber employed. After telling me Margaret Harrelson had been elected president of Mars, Page Thirty-nine the explorers explained they were rushing to meet an engagement with Anne Hamiter, celebrated acrobat in the Hall Circus. Next the familiar campus of Queens met my eyes, but before I could become ' homesick I saw the sign on the door of an attractive establishment. “Queens Tea Room,” under the man¬ agement of Daisy Wilson and Mary Anderson. As Annie Parks Moore was Latin Professor, why they all had quite a jolly time going over to Davidson quite often. Then far. far away in Rome, where Wilma Garner had entered a convent that she might speak Latin to her heart’s desire. While in Rome I heard that Mildred Campbell notorious adventurer, was now in the jungles of Africa hunting big game and giving mental tests to the natives. Now I was at the University of Paris, where Mildred Lubbock and Sara Thomas were astounding the scientific world with their research work and experiments of the jelly bean. Hack again to the dear old U. S. A., where I found Sara Taylor steward on a transatlantic aeroplane. It seemed that Sarah Locke Blythe, having made herself famous as a tight rope walker and toe dancer, was quite content now to dance on the ropes of matrimony. Moreover, the literary world was quite pleased with the new book by Emma Ledford and Mary Johnston, entitled, “Practical Ethics.” In describing it. Mary announced “it was simple and easy as Mother Goose Rhymes.” Who would have thought Zelma Paxton would become secretary to a rich old millionaire, who remembered in his will to such an extent that Zelma was touring the world and spending the old dear’s money. Now the newest thing was the meteor mallet, invented by Marie ilson for use in aeroplane polo. Again I heard the rippling waves; the hush of night and mellow starlight fell on the placid sea, blending fresh faces, fresh ideas, unflagging zeal and unyielding determination with the shimmering waters that had mirrored the destinies of the class of ’25. The rosy dream had passed, but the meridian of hope, in all its splendor, lighted still more beautiful valleys where I stood with Lord Byron, indeed: “The stars were forth; the moon above the top Of the snow-shining mountains beautiful. I lingered yet with nature, for that night Had brought me all the aspirations Of the class of ’25; and there in the starry shade Of dim and solitary loveliness, I learned the language of another world.” Page Forty Senior Glass History l REM the Class of Nineteen and Twenty-Five is the most important class that ever has left or will leave Queens College. For with this class came our beloved president, I)r. Frazer. Yes, the class of ’25 and Dr. Frazer were Freshmen together, so to speak. But Dr. Frazer, having been in a similar position before, seemed to know, or acted as if he knew ' a little more than we did. For here, I will have to admit that the class of 25 in the fall of nineteen hundred and twenty-one w r as the very greenest class that had ever entered Queens. We were a collection of greens from the utmost parts of the globe! Most of us retained this greenish color during the year, but some withered a little due to homesickness, points, and society initiation, which was the worst known in the history of Queens College. But by Christmas we were all able to endure a trip home, and after a glorious holiday we returned for work with a vim. Annie Parks Moore was chosen president and the Juniors said our class colors would be red and white!! Me chose Miss Edna Berkele. who now has her “Mrs.,” as our sponsor. The class of ’25 were the champions of the whole college in basketball, with all the team on the varsity. We, also, were the class that placed the newspaper rack in the library. The year came to a close finding us truer friends, and decidedly in love with our Alma Mater. In due course of time we became Sophomores—not as many as in our Fresh¬ man year—but far more knowing. “We were neither man nor woman We were neither brutes nor human We were Sophs.” M e reelected our Freshman president and our same, sponsor to assist us through the year. This year may well be called the year of awakening, for at this time we realized how peculiarly green the Freshmen are and administered Soph week with decided force, and with an end in view—subordination. This year we gave the Seniors quite a nice banquet, which raised us in their estimation. So the end of another happy year of hard work, for we all had to draw Carnegie Library, placing the books on their respective shelves. Page Forty one Juniors—so soon!! The year of assumed dignity, the very happiest year our class had experienced. Why? First, Junior privileges, then we were just one class below the Seniors and this year the Seniors really knew we were on the campus. It was at the beginning of our Junior year that Jennie came to help us with our phone calls, for that was one of our precious privileges. Sarah Thomas, as our president, and Miss Stone as our sponsor, led us safely through the year to the class day exercise of ’24, for then the mantle of Wisdom fell upon us from the outgoing class. We were all Seniors and wise enough in world experience to select the new Charlotte Hotel for our banqueting place—the perfect ending of a wonderful year. Now last, hut surely not least. Seniors—back at Queens with the proverbial pomp and boasted dignity. This year has been spent by hunting and keeping nickels for the new telephone, a most dignified activity. At this time comes the realization of a long, long dream—a “Y” hut on back campus!! This has been of the greatest interest! to our class. Due to Dr. Frazer’s doing the seemingly impossible, the class of ’25 leaves Queens with A-l diplomas, another realized hope and dream of our class. With our sponsor, Miss Stone, we rallied around Olive Scarratt, our presi¬ dent, and under her wq have completed our duties, fulfilled the expectations of a Senior class and have grown to work together with a closer bond of friendship. It hardly seems that four years ago we came to Queens for the first time. Four of the most wonderful, most carefree, the happiest years that any girl in the class of ’25 will ever experience. We love old Queens with the best that is in us and hate to leave her halls, but we must give our places to those coming on, that they, too, may be happy. The future lies before us, not as a group again will we make history, but each one her own individual page upon life. So we shall look to the future for our happiness, never forgetting the memories and days spent at our Alma Mater. Margaret Harreeson, Class Historian.

We did not hesitate, however, for did we not have that powerful confidence acquired as seniors at high school? Of course, we would be leading factors in the college—naturally the old girls were anxiously awaiting our longed for arrival. But, alas, little did we know about a Freshman’s life! Our dignity impressed neither the faculty .tudent body, and those unbearable Sophomores. We soon lost all our past self- respect and fearfully submitted to be their slaves. We not only suffered humiliation at the Sophomores’ hands, but we were forced to burn the midnight oil and the early morning oil to make C when we never made less than A at high school. Nobody works as hard and reaps as little as a poor, blind Freshman, and we believe we worked harder than any Freshman ever did. Everything comes to him who works and waits, though, and we are at last repaid and have secured our revenge on the unfortunate freshies of ’24. What in all the world could be sweeter than the exalted life of a Sophomore ? As the session closes we regret deeply the fact that we cannot live again this year that has meant so much to us all, and we are truly thankful that we have yet two years to live and work together at dear old Queens.

The long looked for day arrived when we left home for college. Greenness was shining ' out all over us, but even on the first day some of it wore off. We were set to work arranging our schedules, and soon discovered that work pre¬ vailed in college. Then came election of officers. Our first great venture turned out well, for time has proved that we selected the best girl for each place. Freshman initiations inflicted by the Sophomores: We were compelled to carry a broom, and our books in a suitcase, wear our dresses wrong side out and backwards, and with one side of our face beautified with cosmetics, while the othe remained as nature endowed, we amused the entire school. The literary society initiations were also full of horrors, but Thanksgiving Day at last came, as refreshing as a shower of rain on a hot summer day. The Christmas holidays were received with shouts of joy from all. No lessons for three weeks! We were excited when we left home for college but nothing to compare with our excitement when we went home for the Christmas holidays. We went back to college with rather woebegone looks on our faces. We were justi¬ fied in doing so because mid-term examinations and besides those a long stretch of work before the summer vacation. However we went to work with determination. Examinations were successfully passed by the majority of us and the days until commencement were lived through some way or other. We all decided that our Freshman year had been a hard road to travel but we were glad that we had made a successful trip to Sophomoreville.

The members of both Dark Blue and Light Blue sides showed their support of their new standards. The basketball tournament was unusually peppy. The knowledge that the Dark Blues had won the practice games added zest to the games. The first one was most exciting and ended with the close score, 25-24 in favor of the Light Blues. Many were the pep rallies and conferences held the next day in preparation for the next game. Then excellent playing was displayed by both teams but the magic wheel of fortune seemed to be turned favoring the Light Blues. Again they held the advantage, this time with the score of 45 to 19. With the close of the basketball season, track practice, tennis, swimming, and baseball are sharing the interest. That the winner of the tennis cup will have to work hard for it is an assured fact. Field day promises to be one of the best Q. C. has ever had. The grand athletic trophy of the year—the large silver loving cup—is the most sought of all the athletic awards. Who will be the winner? To listen to some loyal Light Blue one would become convinced that it will fall to her side. On the contrary, however, the Dark Blues have been working very hard and they stand a splendid chance of receiving it. Regardless of to whom it falls, it will be earned by much labor and perseverance.

Page One Hundred Forty-eight a p 5 THINK THIS OVER Not “Thriftbut Common Sense When thrift is mentioned people often think of penny-pinching, self-denial— scrimping. That isn’t the idea at all. Saving money is common sense applied to spending, with an eye to your own comfort, peace of mind, and enjoyment of the good things that a reserve fund of money can get you. And that’s why we urge you to open an interest-bearing account at the Inde¬ pendence Trust Company. It helps make life more worth the living. INDEPENDENCE TRUST COMPANY CHARLOTTE, N. C.

With memories brightened by the fa¬ miliar faces and scenes here presented, they again the happy days at will live over Queens. Back in Charlotte, “Queens” will have „ changed. Old faces will have been replaced, new buildings will have been erected, and other material changes will have been made. But ever and anon throughout the years the old, old spirit will have endured, and “Queens will beckon with all the powerful strength of sentiment up¬ held by meritorious reality. If this page then comes to view, know this dear friends of former years—that our fondest hope in this life is that we may have so impressed you with our loy¬ alty to your every interest, that you will feel our beckon¬ ing call no less than that of your Alma Mater, and to renew your faith toward both.

No industry operated with antequated equipment and hand labor can compete with the modern plant using electricity in its various processes. Just so no home depending upon old-fashioned household equipment and human labor can compare with the thoroughly modern home in which elec¬ trical appliances are used for the various household duties and electricity takes the place of human muscle. The thoroughly modern home, where cleanliness, brightness, and effi¬ ciency reign supreme, is the Electrical Home—and no home is modern with¬ out its equipment of electrical appliances. Household duties that were formerly dreaded as drudgery are easily and pleasantly performed through the use of the wonder worker—Electricity. Just as the electric range, the washing machine, the ironing machine, the suction cleaner, the Kelvinator, coffee percolator, waffle iron, grill, motorized sewing machine and other appliances have banished drudgery and made housekeeping a pleasant game, just so the electric fan, the curl¬ ing iron, the heating pad, the vibrator, the hair dryer, and other appliances have contributed immensely to the comfort and health and pleasure of the users of these wonder-working appliances. The Southern Public Utilities Company handles no appliances that have not been tested and proven in its own laboratories. Southern Public Utilities Company Charlotte Hickory Mt.
