1924 NIKE 27 BRAMAN, JOSEPHINE 418 Second Street Elyria, Ohio Cercle Francais Classical Club The electric current was quite low when we called on Jo (which sometimes happens), but we caught a mental picture of dark, curly hair, fluffy eiderdown, and lots of cloudy-blue chiffon; all quite intriguing to our weary eye. Jo must have heard us interviewing Jean, for she piped right up with the same line: “Just going to get married—I guess.” We assured Jo that this was old stuff, and warned her not to try anything funny on us, but Jo really was quite serious about it. At the same time, our sub-conscious mind wired to us that we had heard some mention of one Heman Ely before! So we reckon it is o.k. Jo expects to live in the suburbs of Phila- delphia; Bryn Mawr, or Overbrook; “if we can find any place cheap enough.” Jo sud- denly became enthusiastic: “Say,’’ she expostulated, “want to hear something funny? I’m going to do the cook- ing!”’ This was all very interesting, as was the fact, which we learned to our sorrow, that Jo was a fresh-air fiend. Feeling our edi- torial neck stiffening momentarily, we made haste to depart. We bet Jo will make a cute bride!

She has enrolled for the year course in the art at Columbia. After completing the course, she wants to teach near Boston. We believe Costello made the same remark, about being near Boston, we mean. It’s queer the way some people’s minds run in the same channels! Anyway, we will soon be in our second childhood at the rate we are going, so we will come on to “Crackers’’ school, for we think that she will make a mighty fine Kin- dergartner!

26 NIKE 1924 BLAKE, FRANCES B. 54 Sydney Street Dorchester, Mass. Art Club Cercle Frangais Spanish Club We should love to tell what ‘‘Fran’’ said when asked the first time what she planned to do next year — but we can’t, because the very day after there was a worried little note in our mail box begging that what she had said should please not be taken seriously. And the next time we went to her she an- swered prosaically that probably she would go into newspaper work. They say ‘‘Fran”’ likes most everything including eats, Cather- ine Mansfield, cunning underclassmen, and bridge, especially the last. BRADLEY, ELIZABETH 60 Milton Avenue A. A. Council 4 Assistant Editor Record 3 Cercle Frangais, Secretary 3 Art Club Classical Club Psyche Agora Following many ‘‘practical applications,”’ in the way of delicious cups of tea, intriguing sandwiches, and such delicacies, we have come to associate Betty with all sorts of good things to eat. Hence, we were not very much surprised to learn that she is planning to help run a tea-room this summer: “‘to learn something.’’ However, we venture to say, from experience, Betty, that you have not much left to learn in that line! We hope your T-room won’t be too near our home, or we will be forced to spend all our time and shekels there. But please don’t go too far away, either, Betty! Next winter Betty expects to teach English and History somewhere in the Middle West, perhaps in Chicago. Hers is a rather unusual object in teaching, but we think it is a very good one. Betty wants to teach to get ex- perience in managing people and in living in a large community. Ultimately she hopes to get a B.S. either in English, or in Domestic Science. Betty is considering the very interesting prospect of working in Miss Farmer’s School of Cookery, which is run by her aunt. And we secretly suspect that Betty will some day be at the head of this school. We quite envy the very interesting and varied career that Betty has before her. Hyde Park, Mass.

BRISTOL, ELIZABETH Summer Street Cohasset, Mass. Classical Club Musical Club Art Club (Choinslee2 oe Somehow, when we think of choir we always think of Betty, the very last one up in the corner of the right-hand bench. Church will not seem natural without her there. She plans to keep on with music, but only as an avocation. Business looks much more in- teresting to her for every day. She is to be at Filene’s for a month this summer, and next fall she will go to the Prince School in Boston, to study personnel work. In be- tween times, Betty likes to climb mountains, great, great, big, high ones like Pike’s Peak and Mt. Everest and all the mountains around Norton. away her real motive in camp work, when she said: ‘‘I love to go berrying.”’ “T never did bring any high ambitions to college,’’ Winnie reflected, “I work hard when I do work,’’ she added. Looking at her list of accomplishments, we concluded that our A. A. president refuted the former statement, and proved the latter. She certainly has given us some mighty high ideals, for which we shall always be grateful. CHALMERS, WINIFRED 57 W. Trenelett Street President of A. A. 4 Vice-President of A.

W. C. A. Cabinet 4 French Club Art Club Psyche Agora Winnie was very helpful. She told us ex- actly what we wanted to know, and at the same time we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. While her fate is not sealed, like her room- mate Ruth’s is, Winnie expects to teach his- tory and English; preferably somewhere in the New England States. With Ruth, she is going to work in Filene’s this summer. Being quite new at the craft of salesmanship, Winnie declares that she will “sell anything.”’ Winnie is broad-minded enough not to want to teach more than one year, since she is not particularly interested. She wants above all to study architecture. Being a typically all-round girl, she is fond of camp and settlement work. She has been a swim- ming instructor .at Rainbow Camp in the Adirondacks. And she has done settlement work with working girls at Rosemary Cottage, Elliot, Maine. We wondered if she gave
