She's a friendly sort of girl, always dancing or singing or laughing. Lessons are semi-serious to her. In fact, Mil just about strikes a happy medium in everything she does.

And can she knit-whooiel All day long her needles and her tongue elack in time together-the result is she has knitted innumerable suits and dresses and also told innumer- nhle tall stories. By the way, she can knit and read at the same time, an accomplishment invaluable to anyone who has to go to classes as an incidental accompaniment to knitting. She has at smile for one and all, and a hello for everyone from Pop to Viola. She can talk on any subject at all- something which makes her in demand whenever one or more gather round for a talk fest. She's tolerant, good lnnnored, quick on the uptake, and ready for most anything. She can tcll you the grandest tales with the straightest face you'd ever want to see-and do we all fall for them!

Our Marge is a jack-of-all-trades, and also master of quite a few. Her spontaneous, uproariously funny imitations on oIIe side, on another, her seriously motivated piano studyg on still another, her undeniable talent with her pen. Clever, but far froIn a bookwormg moody, but highly capable, this young woman is something of a paradox. You can laugh with her, you can accompany her day after day to Pop's, you can enjoy her midnight feasts, you can talk to her as one can talk only to a warm hearted and sympathetic friend. And you can wonder eternally Where she gets the time to do all these things, and still study, and take piano, and write for Pambo, and act in plays, but she finds time nevertheless.

Her straight brown hair and dark skin combine to make an unusual appearance that matches her unusual personality. Not that Bart's per- sonality is exotic. Far froIn it. There is nothing of the snake charmer or the bathed-in-oriental-perfume-woman about her. She is what is commonly known ill America as a hpalf' Possessing a rare ability to get along with people, and a straightforwardness unusual in most women, she is a valued friend. Being on the Student Council did not cause a decrease in her list of friends. Rather, one more year in college' served only to add Inany more. Bart is the kind of a girl yoII'd trust with your diamond bracelet, your last bar of chocolate, or your best boy friend. She's a square shooter. She has a passion for Hg newtons, sports, and chemistry, and we don't know in what order to name them. cii

ARTS AND Sc1rNc1: NEWARK Esther Hitvliu Enphin Aiers AND SCIENCE Wn.mnvc'roN Esther, who came to us last year from Hood, has made a name for herself in scholarship. She is gifted with a clear, unbiased, analytical mind of which any girl would be envious. When Esther speaks. everyone listens, for they know that something worthwhile is going to be said. One feels her kecnness, her understanding, and her poise. However, Esther is far from being a sophisticated intellectual-a girl with such pretty brown eyes couldn't be. She is clever, witty, and full of fun-her sense of humor and pleasant tactful ways never fail her, Her eyes always shine with friendship and good will, and her face always wears a pleasant smile. I'reshm'm rUllTl'll Committee, Junior Prom Comrnitteeg May 3 Court I, II. Behold the blonde beauty with the sun tanned skin! Elinor forever dazzles us with her unusual loveliness. It is not without reason that we have chosen her year after year to he in the May Court. lt is not an exaggeration to say that she is one of the most striking girls who ever graced the Women's College campus. Then, too, Elinor has many social graces. She is popular, and it is no wonder, for she is at ease wherever she goes, she knows her way around, and she is a good dancer. And in addition, she plays the piano well-not using music the way most people do, but playing rhythmical jazz by ear. Now she has left us to grace a household as Mrs. Donald Welles. civ
