Grace Leonard Brooks of Roxbury has attained fame this year principally on account of the Ninety-Seven neck. To mention a few of her accomplishments, she has brought the art of making breaks to a fine point, to- gether with her dancing. In this latter she is certainly our premiere danseuse, and well deserves her name. Grace Ethelwvn Browne is small only in stature. The demands on her varied abilities consume so much time that she is perpetually flying in the rear of her engagements, occa- sionally with a bandage round her head to prevent apoplexy. She upholds the musical honor of the College, and her voice and her efforts lead the Glee Club to victory three times a year. Helen Brown is a loyal citizen of Hartford, Connecticut. Though she still has one unde- veloped talent, two have been brought into prominence during her college course. By means of her paint-brush she has supplied admiring friends with artistic gifts, and with her guitar she has graced the Banjo Club throughout Senior year. II

Cornelia Bradford is the daughter of a well-known clergyman, and when we forget the dignity of her position, we call her Nell. She is distinguished by her small, trim figure, which always fits its clothes better than most. Athletics archer speciality, and she is good company when fairly started on an adventure, though harder to move than her size would warrant. Anna Hempstead Branch What ' s Nan made of, made of? Dream and rhyme and things that chime, Dare-devil plans for willing hands, Castles in Spain with merry refrain — That ' s what Nan ' s made of, made of. Grace Edith Breckenridge came to us from Toledo, Ohio; she is not related to Breckinridge of Kentucky. Although enter- ing as a Literary, she has ended by devoting almost half of her Senior work to Science, and has honorably filled the office of Vice- President of the Biological Society. 10

I Jl Ruth Gray Brown, whose laugh is the joy of the Hubbard House, lives in Columbus, Ohio. She has climbed to distinction in many quarters, and her dramatic ability, whether in the cast or on the committee, will not soon be forgotten ; but her chief employ- ment is in writing — and receiving — letters. Florence Fannie Bushee is a dutiful granddaughter to a grandfather residing at Amherst, and pays the town frequent visits. The same happy spirit which makes each festivity the best time she ever had since she came to college, is a perpetual source of comfort and joy to her friends. Mary Elmer Bushee has an unfailing fund of politeness. Untimely demands for Graph- ophone concerts fail to exhaust it, and even fourteen-hour callers are urged not to hurry. Food for her intellectual life is supplied daily by the Brown Herald and James ' Psychology. 12
