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

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

Anna GEORGINE CARHART came to us from a Brooklyn Preparatory School. Let this be a warning to all those thinking of going to Brooklyn schools. It cultivates too great a love of psalm-tunes, which takes a girl ' s mind off her work. In spite of this frivolous ten- dency, Miss Carhart has made a good record, and the Brooklyn school deserves to join Ninety-Seven in being proud of her. Anna Delia Casler is so good and so sen- sible as to afford the deepest satisfaction to her friends. She can spy a folly from afar, and pronounce upon it her word of judgment, Fudge ! But her sight is keener still in finding opportunity to do a kindness. She loves fun, and her jokes furnish a spice of naughtiness to her charac ter. Dorothea Ruth Cayerno has gained the reputation during her college career, of being extremely well-informed on all subjects per- taining to, or suggestive of classical literature. In fact, such is her fame, that a certain mem- ber of the faculty is wont to refer all classical allusions to her infallible i ?) knowledge. L3
