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

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.

Natural History Committee S): President of I nion (S); Brown White Board (S); Treasurer Young Friends Committee (S); Class President (S). University of Pennsylvania. 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

ROBERT HOOTON RICHIE 154 E. Me in Street, Moorestown, N. J. Entered -Fall 1919. Rustic (2). Chairman Business Com- mittee (2): Briirhtoni ins (2): I'nion (1). (S): 1’n li un nt'ii y ( 1 ). (S).

(S); Insignia (S). Hiverford. Characteristic: Eye Shade. UA man of genius and skill C n firmly conquer what he will.” PERHAPS Richie’s outstanding ability comes into play when he is breaking: the ice at some stiff party- Richie is very successful in this line of work not i illy h. c ause lie is dauntless, but because Bobby is a pr. tty boy—Bobby is the ladies’ joy. Yes, in the human race as in all other athletics, Richie is a staunch advocate of fairness. But counter- balancing; the call of Westward Ho! is the call of all athletics. He does everything, and is good in everything. He plays outside in soccer, but he’s never outside the group who get varsities; he is a gym dandy fellow, and he snaked into first rank by means of the serpentine. From this it sounds as if Richie were perfect, but he is not. When he starts to whistle we believe that Paradise is lost. MARGUERITE SHOEMAKER ROBERTS MorrisvilU, Pa. Entered—Fall 1920. Pnion (S); Comitia (S); Clerk (S); French Club (S); Latin Club S : (liss Hockey Team (1): (S): Dress Committee (1): Picture Committee S): Prophecy Committee (S); Gym Team (S): Home Fcmcmics (S). Art School. Characteristic: Squirrel. “To know her is to love her.” UFV YAD of the Woods, come forth and sing your song!” You might call “Bunk-Bunk” this way, but never a song will you hear. We must say of her— “A girl once wrote a beatitude Which allowed for little free latitude Blessed are they With little to say— For they are dead sure to get gratitude.” “Beauty is as beauty does,” therefore Marguerite must do things very beautifully. Well, “Bunk-Bunk,” if you have accepted “Silence is golden” for your motto, we wish you success in silence and other things, too. Page 27
