MARION BUSH Barxesville. Ga. Soft .stillncits and the n ' Kjht , Bfcomes the touches of sweet hnrmoiiif. Polyinnian: Treasurer of Saint Cecelia CIul), ' 15- ' l(i; K(litor-in-CIiief of Argo, 1916. Marion, better known as Bush II is a special curiosity because of lier unusual laugh, a special favorite on Senior Hall, and a special in music. Most of her time is spent in the conservatory and she is seriously considering moving her bed and trunk to the chapel for convenience. She has a peculiar horror of hurting anyone ' s social self and I sunnose that is whv at the Senior dining table she never fails to tell eacli one of us ' hello several times during every meal. We appre- ciate her thoughtfulness. but we recom- mend the use of a phonograph. LETHA K. BURKE Newpoht, Tenn. Thy words ure not idfe nor are fhcif to me without ineaniiuf. Eunomian: Tennis, ' r2- ' 13- ' 14- ' 15- ' 16; Department Editor of Chimes, ' 14- ' 15; Basketball, 12- ' 13- ' U- ' 15; Tennessee Club, U2- ' 13- ' U- ' 15- ' l j; Secretary and Trea.surer of Tennessee Club, ' 15- ' 16; . ssociate Editor of Argo, ' 15- ' 1G; Post C;radiiate, 1916. Letha is very particular — particular to wear good-looking clothes, to get out of all work possible, and never to get back to school on time. Slie was also partic- ular to finish her course five months be- fore the rest of us, so she would be sure to get her diploma. She is a living monument of how Shorter can improve a girl. You should have seen her when she was a Freshman.

ROSALIE BROWN McDoNOUGH, Ga. miixli- be the food of lore, plati on, Gh ' e me excess of it. ' ' Eunomian: Delegate to Student Vol- unteer Convention, l-l- ' lS; Argo Staff. 1916. Has she studied geology? You would think she knew all about the subject to hear her expound on the subject of Rivers. But one thing she is especially interested in is medicine. She hopes some day to become a trained nurse and minister unto the wounded soldiers, but her nickname, Rosie. calls to our minds nothing but a chorus girl. We wonder which she will be. V M.

Marv K. ' s value to the class of 1916 is indirectly proportional to the distance from her head to her toes. Slie ' s a little bundle of wit and poetry, but the quality of the material makes up for any lack in quantity. She is recognized as the best basketball center guard in school, was voted the most original girl, and the number of offices she has held speak for her piipularity.

May Queen, ' 16. Demure? Yes. she ' s demure, kind and reliable. She ' s the heighth of perfection, of the class of ' 16. And we can ' t decide which she is most like — a Dutch doll or an Angel from Kingdom Come. She is altogether indispensable to her Junior suite mate and is the only power on the hill that can keep her room mate in the straight and narrow path. 1. M ' LISSE EDWARDS Thoxotosassa, Fla.

Pretty, attractive, smart, indifferent — that ' s M ' Lisse. She has a fine business mind, an unmatched persistence for col- lecting money and unheard of accuracy in guessing what she doesn ' t know in liis- tory class. She gets ads for the Argo when everybody else has failed. And she has weakened all our intellects by per- suading us to buy memory books to save mental exertion.
