Although Lena does not possess the pro- verbial appearance of a poet and although the world as yet has not been thrilled by the rhythmic flow of her iambie lines, we have only to refer the reader to the poem of the Class of 'I3 in order to prove the first statement in the above classic quotation. Not only in the realm of the Muses of the various kinds of poetry does Lena excel, but she has also invoked the aid of Clio and I call to witness the girls of the first section of Senior History to back me up in saying that she has been wonderfully blessed. Chief Characteristic: Fluency in speech. Chief Recommendation: just herself. Adelphiang Class Poet, '12-'13 5 Y. W. C. A., G. M. M. S. Mabel Claire Winn, B.S. lVl'A'l'l-IEWS, VIRGINIA Moslesty is the grace of the soul. Mabel is another old salt from the Eastern Shore. That section of Virginia is well represented this year and ought to feel proud of its daughters. Mabel is small, very meek and quiet-apparently. She believes in asserting her rights. just look out for these quiet people, anyway! She is also a devotee of the great sleep god. Last year Whenever she was not at roll-call, you would be sure to find her lulled in the arms of Morpheus, which only goes to prove that it is well to take care of the body as well as the mind, for this year Mabel shines forth as one of our brightest literary stars. Chief Characteristic: Modesty. Chief Recommendation: Faithfulness. Ade1phiang.Y. W. c. A., G. M. M. s.

Lily Bell Quarles, B.S. RICHMOND, VIRGINIA ELLERSON, VIRGINIA When she had passed, it seemed like the ceasing of exquisite music. Elizabeth is one of our chief vocal stars. She was originally a Yankee, having come from Massachusetts to the beautiful and historic Richmond, which is still the rich possessor of this wonderfully talented speci- men of humanity. Nature has endowed her with many of her richest gifts, the most noted being her voice, which is soft and low, and she is all the world to us. Chief Recommendation: Her voice. Chief Characteristic: Suggestivity. Delta Alpha Sigma Sorority, Philomathean 41 I never knew so young a body with so old a head. Lily is last, but not least, of the Trium- virate. Each morning, through rain and storm, she comes from the country to Rich- mond. It shows a great longing for education to rise from the sweet dreams and rush off to catch the train. Especially, when she always knows her lessons. Lily Bell is rather shy, but when you once know her you love her. . Chief Recommendation: Earnest desire for knowledge. Chief Characteristic: Studying.
