Harriet Margaretta Gold, as her name might imply, is undoubtedly worth her weight in gold. Coming from Amherst, as she does, she has an advantage over the majority of us, which she makes the most of, in a devoted pursuit of geology. Her geological map of the campus (scale, one inch to four miles) will surely be a valuable addition to our scientific collections. Cora M. Goodhind, the daughter of Fred- erick T. Goodhind, a paper manufacturer in Unionville, Conn., by her quiet dignity and modesty has won many firm friends. She is noted for her beautiful hair and dimples. The governing principle of her life is, Speech is silver but silence is golden. ' - Julia Goodrich is one of our class who has come up from Springfield every morning and gone back every afternoon, for the sake ot graduating with Ninety-Seven, and shar- ing with us the honor of bringing out the first class book at Smith. -.

Alice Gates played basket-ball on the regular team her Freshman and Sophomore years. She was very popular with under- class girls Junior and Senior years, and has the faculty of saying nice things to one so sweetly that one is almost persuaded they are true. She dances well indeed and for that reason or some other equally good, found in Amherst a congenial atmosphere. She was our Portia — nough said ! Agnes Marion Gemmel commenced life in Canada, but she soon crossed over into this country. She prepared for college at St. Margaret ' s School in Buffalo, N. Y. There she captured a prize for never missing a rec- itation. Mary- Ann ' s favorite hymn is Yankee Doodle and in spite of the advice of her friends to adopt music as her profession, she hopes to use her education to instruct mankind. Lucia Fessenden Gilbert ' s press of lit- erary labors and her original mind have together perfected the art of arriving at all engagements just as the last gun fires. Her low voice and serene ways are united with a zeal which would send her flying one minute to the rescue of the Armenians, the next to that of the Blacks in South Africa. 24

Alice Phelps Goodwin has a right to her haughty manner, for in her native town, Lexington, Massachusetts, she is recognized as one of the society queens, and subjects bow the knee before her. She unbends rarely, except to her intimates, to whom she is known as Old Horse, a name fitting her nature, or as Kitty, on account of her extraordinary gift of purring like a cat. Grace Greenwood hails from Lynn, Massa- chusetts, which probably accounts for the trim appearance of her footgear. She is distinguished on account of her elocutionary ability and her sealskin coat. The only thing about her which has been in the back- ground is her bicycle. Franc Hale Here ' s to the maid with all graces in one, With face that is rare and aesthetic ; Yet she ' s in for a scrape, She ' s ready for fun, Pugnacious, and most energetic. 26
