ROSE lyr AR ' Y LUCILE EIFFERT, P,. S. KOANOKE, VIRGINIA “What ail eye she hath! Methiuks it sounds a parley of provocation. An eye like Mars, to threaten and command.” Eiffert (ef¥ort) — as her name indicates — is a very great task to all her teachers and friends. She is a Virginia maid with shockingly playful brown eyes; has a musical voice — when heard. For two long years Lucile has waded out into the crystal waters” of knowledge at Sullins and has partaken freely thereof. Lucile is cheerful, sweet and refined — a girl well worth knowing. In former days she once held a very important (?) place on the dummy row” in Madamoiselle’s most brilliant P rench class. Lucile is very fond of traveling, and her brightest ambition is to become an honorary member of a certain LP T. C. Council. 19

Such a person is Nell Hale. There is no record that she was ever on time at anything. However, as Mrs. Neighbors has pointed out, “Though Nell is never there on time, she is always there.” And she is likewise calm, and prepared for any emergency.
