MARIAN JANE MOON Woodbine, Pa. Entered—Fall 1021. I’nion (8): Treasure Seekers (S): Comitia (8); Treasurer of Senior Teas (S): Home Economics (S). University of Pennsylvania. Characteristic: History Book. “She reads by day and night” AS Marian waited till her Senior year to enter this institution, we haven't had a chance to know her very well. She is a quiet, thoughtful girl, always read- ing some article on the war, or digging into some huge volume of history. There may he a method in her mad- ness, however, for we see her standing hack of a desk drilling her energetic pupils in the exploits of Napoleon, or even coaching an historical play. She may even come hack to Westtown and instruct our descendants in that subject. We wish her luck in whatever she does. CHARLES EDWARD RHOADS 123 E. Central Avenue, Moorestown, N. J.

Characteristic: Turtle (Slow and Steady). “Silently does he meet success ' YOUR first thought when you enter Chas room is that he is not at home. But a pair of shoes, which are anything hut small, come to life, come oft the table, his glasses appear over its top, and he shows himself, either with a notebook or a letter in his hand. The letter, we will ask no questions about; and the notebook contains all the class secrets, so it is not for our eyes either. But when Chas. isn't studying or helping some- body else, the best way to find him is to follow your nose. If you smell food, seek the source of supply and there he will he parking on the table, and talking about either his own, or someone else's girl. But in spite of his letters and his notebook, his hunger and his feet (or maybe it’s because of the latter), he seems to get along well wherever he goes. Page 25

Clerk (S): Monitor in Evening Collection (2), Proctor (1): Class Hockey Team (1), (S); Treasurer of A. A. (S): Executive (S : Brown White Hoard (S): Delta S): (Mass Gym Team (2). (1). (S): Squad Leader (S); Pin Committee (1); (Mass Treasurer (S); Valedictorian Com- mittee (S): Tree Committee (S). Class Basket Ball Team ’S). Bryn Mawr. Characteristic: Cash Register. “A favorite has no need of a friend.” NO, Ruth does not have any nickname by which we can call her; hut she has a charm by which we can know her. She seems very quiet until one gets to know her; then look out. “Along came Ruth, and to tell the truth, she look my breath away.” She docs that too, with her eagerness and ability to learn. Although Ruth studies a lot, she docs go in for athletics. Didn’t she hack up the class by playing hockey and basket hall bu- ns? And as for taking care of money why she kept the A. A. money so well that we decided she would la- the one to keep our Class money, and a good job she made of it! ANNA MOFFITT Fiske University, Nashville, Tenn. Entered Fall 1920. Dress Committee 1): Peace Essay, Second Prize (1). First Prize (S): Brown White Essay, Third Prize (I): Class Day “Eats” Committee (1): Brown White Board (1). (S): I'nion 1 ). (S); Secretary (S) . Home Economies (1). (S): Comitia (S): Winner of Prize in Sketching Contest (S): Latin Club (S : Delta (S): (Mass Poet (S). Mt. Holyoke. Characteristic: Candle (for Diligence). “Man's fortunes are according to his pains.” IS there anyone in the school who we arc sure al- ways follows the dictates of the best light she has? Yes, there is one- That is Anna Moffitt. We never doubt her sincerity, and if we did, I believe she would go wild of a troubled conscience. Anna can tell tales which is more than most of us can do. She can com- pare Bartlesville with Westtown, or tell about the joys of educating Indians at Tunessassa. There isn’t any sub- ject that she doesn’t have information on, if she chooses to let it out. Anna has an abundance of convolutions on the surface of her cerebrum, I am sure, and she works to make the best of them. “Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well,” is Anna's motto, and we know she will carry it through life.

Characteristic: Hamilton Watch. ,;I hate a thin done by halves.” U T OOK what the wind blew in!” Betty—with ' a stack of books—as usual! “When Joy and Duty clash, let Joy pro to smash” is Betty’s motto. She is nearly always studying or doing some committee work for the school. Please don't think, though, that Betty never plays, because she certainly does. She plays basket hall, plays hockey like a whizz, and plays with the Seniors. Not “Pair, fat and forty” hut “Pair, fat and jolly,” describes Betty exactly; for she is fair in looks, fat in avoirdupois and jolly through and through. “Just ask the Seniors—they know!” MARION RHOADS 2500 Dekware Avenue, Wilmington, Del.

Characteristic: Baby Doll. -For, O, for O, the hobby horse is forgot” O you know Pet? Well, if you don’t, you have “ missed something. She has flaxen hair, baby blue eyes and a mouth most bewitching. She is blest with as many graces as four older sisters can possibly think of. That is net all—“Pet” can play tennis like a whizz, and although she cannot swim she is not at all afraid to go can eing. If you want to find out just ask her; see if she won’t go. “Sing and the world sings with you,” is Pet’s motto, and it is worth while listening when she starts to sing. Page 26
