8 THE GARNET AND WHITE Elsie Shadden Carr General “She is a maiden wondrous fair. With radiant locks of auburn hair.” Elsie has spent four years with us. and. although she is very quiet, she is a true friend to all who are fortunate enough to make her acquaintance. Elsie is sure to be found in the Library second period studying her English, but Arithmetic is her favorite sub- ject, and she is the shining star of the class. She is going to Normal next year. Dorothy A. Chambers “Capacity for every joy. Basement Monitor. Ill: Dramatic Club. IV. Dorothy is most familiarly known to her friends as. ‘ Dotts.” She is of the quiet type of girl in school, but as a ‘chum’’ she is full of fun and an all-round sport, endearing her to all of her acquaintances. Dotts” is undecided as to what she will do. We wish her good luck and happiness in her future. Isabel Crow Chase General “Lively and talkative Stored with the treasures of the tattling world And with a spice of wit, too.” Isabel has been with us only a year, but in spite of this fact, she has won loads of friends. She is ambitious, bright, attrac- tive. and overflowing with fun. Her favorite past-time is kid- ding:—especially the boys. After her graduation she will go into training in the Philadelphia Presbyterian Hospital. Success to you from West Chester. Isabel, as well as from Lansdowne. Catherine E. Clement General A peaceful citizen and liked by all.” Locker Room Monitor. IV: Glee Culb, IV. Kate” is one of those girls that you just can’t help liking, be- cause. Oh. just because she’s “Kate.” Her contagious smile and her pretty brown eyes have won her a place in all our hearts, and we hope she will not forget us in the future. “Kate” expects to go to Miss Illman’s Kindergarten Training School next year, and we wish her heaps of luck.

She has made many friends here, because you just can't help liking her. and I know we shall all miss her next year when she goes to Sweet Briar College. Va. We wonder how she will get along without Labby next year, for you never see one without the other. Helen Painter Burnett « General “A friend to nature and to all.” Basket Ball. I: Glee Club. II. III. Biff's not the desperate character her name leads one to be- lieve. but a jolly bobbed-haired kid with a smile for all the world.

Anne's love for cats is another feature of her personality. Don't forget '24. Anne, when you become a Ph. D. at Mount Holyoke.

IV. “Ev,” as he is known to us but whose teachers call him Everett, according to statistics has been in love the last four years, more or less. Perhaps it is his ready smile and 'Marcel Wave that have won his way into the hearts of the fairer sex. especially a little blond-haired girl who hails from Malvern. No matter. Ev” is a good sport, and his popularity is not confined to either sex. Everett expects to attend the Philadelphia College of Pharm- acy. Lloyd Byron Conner General “Let us eat, drink, and be merry—for tomorrow— Science Club, III; Soccer Team, IV. “Conner” has been an important cog in the machinery of 24.

Dot’s always lots of fun. and she is a leading factor in baby circles—gatherings on the Senior steps. Drop-the- handkerchief’ and “red lights’’ have always been favorite games of hers. Dot is going to Swarthmore College next year, and we know W. C. H. S.’24 will always be proud of her. Mary Cope General “To those who know her best a friend most true and hearty.” Mary is a member of the illustrious group from Cheyney. Don’t we all like to lease her? Seriously, though.
