Vaxdergrife Dietician ' .l r i F History of Mississippi Woman s College Since 1925 m a NEW era began for the college in 1925. Before that time, with the excep- tion of two sessions, during each of which, $10,000 was received from the Education Commission, the income on which the annual budget was predicated wJ came principally from tuition and student ' s fees. Aside from the revenue thus received fSi there were no certain sources of support and so the budget for any college year would t4 not be known to an approximate degree until after the session had opened. Appreciat- f ing the hardships which such a system imposed upon those charged with the financial OLU administration, the Board of Trustees in the opening months of 1925 cast about for a _-— solution to these problems. Mr. J. E. Byrd, one of the original trustees and head of 31 the Baptist Sunday School work in Mississippi for more than twenty years, proposed tSSS the plan which was finally adopted. This consisted in the main of asking the State iVa Baptist Convention to issue bonds for endowment in the sum of $100,000 and to aA i ' ji guarantee the annual payment of the interest upon an additional $200,000, provided wSU f ' the trustees of the college would raise in cash in South Mississippi the sum of $200,- [Wjl h .J 000. This would provide an endowment of $500,000, which is the minimum endow- _ _ f? ment fixed by the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools for full pfffl !.! ■ membership in that body. The Education Commission, having agreed to recommend r . ' ' ' this plan to the State Convention, the trustees selected the president of the college Oi as the head of the campaign for $200,000 and he in turn secured Dr. W. A. McComb 19S of Gulfport to assist in the field work. The city of Hattiesburg assumed responsibility B J f ' ' ?«,;5? ° $75,000, and a large committee headed by Hon. George W. Currie, a leading Tfi K C ' .i attorney of the city and an elder in the Main Street Presbyterian Church, put on a — campaign and raised this amount in two weeks. ISh ■ ' By the time of the meeting of the State Convention in November, the quota of j $200,000 was raised in cash. This was accomplished only by the heroic work of many K2] ' pastors and laymen and the securing of many generous gifts. Space would fail to give v [if ' Yl the names which should be written upon the Roll of Honor of this campaign and vj mention will be made of but two, both of whom are citizens of other states. One of f these is B. B. Jones of Berryville, Virginia, the founder of the Feild Co-operative IfeJ Association, and the warm friend of every educational interest in Mississippi. The other is Crawford Johnson of Birmingham, Alabama, a brother of the president of I. V« college. These two men made it possible to carry the campaign on to a successful Ji.J ' ' ' ■ conclusion. v: ' ' ' When the State Con ention met at New Albany in November, 1925, the recom- ■ mendations of the Education Commission were unanimously adopted. Application ' , ' for membership was made to the Southern Association, which is the standard and official means of accrediting in the South. •; (Continued on Page 62) M f? THE CLASSES Fannie Belle Allman, A.B. GULFPORT, MISSISSIPPI Hermenian; Glt-e Club. ' 21, ' 25; Life Service Band. Fannie Belle possesses a marked intellectvial ability and a voice delightfully clear and sweet. Those who have been privileged to he her classmates will remember with longing the days when they were associated with Fannie Belle. She has sung her way into the hearts of countless number of people. She is one who merits the highest praise because oi her strength of character, unselfish spirit and delightful way of making and keeping friends. Annie Belle Averitt, A.B. LUCEDALE, MISSISSIPPI Hermenian: President Life Service Band. -27; B. S. U. Surelv Annie must have kept the saying, Personality makes power before her constantlv, for she has the personality and she has the power. She is earnest, thought- ful, dependable and capable; in fact, she is the possessor of so many of the fine qualities that it takes to make an ideal college student. To say that Woman ' s College will miss her is not enough — what will we do without her? Merle Lee Barnett, A.B. MENDENHALL, MISSISSIPPI Hc-rmtiiian; Home Erononii.s CIuli. -24. ' Ja. ■20, ' 27; Student Counril, ' iii. Combine a merry smile, a pleasing personality, sparkling blue eyes, and a Senior dignity and the result is Merle. There are certain attributes that a friend must have and there are certain others that a friend may have. This second class of attributes is what distinguishes Merle from her fellow students. This second mile shows the pure gold and Merle is the proud possessor of pure gold. Philoniathii Hazel Trent IJrowx, A.B. PELOH. TCHEE, MISSISSIPPI Nituro Sertion. ■25, ' 20: Prtttiist Blondf Basliell.all. Oh, were I like thee, so fair a thing. With her sweet, unassuming disposition, her jolliness at all times, her dependability and loyalty. Hazel goes about her duties showing to the world a girl altogether lovely, with an exceptional amount of poise and equally as much tact. Combined with these an unparalleled dignity makes her altogether charming. When we know her we find she has a delightfully refreshing personality and inspires in us the highest admiration. Ida Erlene Brantox, A.B. COLUMBIA, MISSISSIPPI Baskctljall Team. ■25. •2(); Student Volunteer Band. ■21); Si El Circulo K.SI1; Is there anvone vho doesn ' t love Ida? Of course not! She just knocks on the door of your heart and valks right in because you want her there. She is witty with a wit that does not sting — happy with a spontaneous happiness — but that is not all, for Ida is thoughtful, sincere and dependable. We are confident that she will be successful. Annie Ward Rvrd, A.B. MT. OLIVE, MISSISSIPPI Pine Burr. ■27: B. S. U. : Ktu In our search for an ideal college senior, we found Annie Ward, and the search •was fully satisfied. A glance at her eyes reveals calmness, wisdom and sincerity. Friendship with her reveals independence, sympathy, loyalty, and a quiet dignity in all that she does. And would you know what intimacy reveals? A true friend, clean, whole- some sportsmanship, and one who can hold her own in any discussion. For these reasons Annie Ward is enthroned in the hearts of W. C. stutlents and indispensable to the Senior Class. Philoinathen Mildred Brown, A.B. PELOHATCHEE, MISSISSIPPI ll . ■21, ' 25; Lntin Club. M: Student Cr Just full of life and fun. A girl who has lived among us for four years helping us, understanding us, believing in us. She is a messenger of joy, a harbinger of gladness, and we are always glad when we are with Mildred. Along with this capacity of over- flowing gladness she brings to us a sympathetic knowledge of all our joys and sorrows, and a desire to help in all things. She is Mildred, and just to be Mildred is the compli- ment we would pay her, together with our love and loyalty. Alpha Cox, A.B. TUNICX, MISSISSIPPI ■IS. ' 25; Vi Would you know a born dramatist? It ' s Alpha! Would you know a splendid executive? It ' s Alpha! Would you know who ' ll put it through When there ' s something vou can ' t do? It ' s Alpha! Her power of leadership is a marvel, her worth to Woman ' s College is inestimable. When the Student Body needed a president, all eyes turned to her, and she has filled that office with a capability to the ' nth degree. Sympathy and understanding established in her the confidence of the students; efficiency and dependability shows her worthy of the con- fidence of the faculty — a strong, true character we find behind that smile, and an encour- aging word for e ' eryone. We count ourselves better for having known you, Alpha, and may all your years be as successful as those spent at M. W. C. Clara Belle Clark, A.B. CARMICHAEL, MISSISSIPPI Hermenian; Latin Club. ' 24; Hockey Team, •24; Hiking Team, ■2. . ; Tennis Clul., -27. Vivacity, intelligence and sincerity — that ' s what her smile tells you; capability, in- dependence and sympathy — that ' s what friendship shows you. And would you know what intimacy reveals? All of these, and — well, more. Ella Ree Coody, A.B. PHOENI.X ' , MISSISSIPPI For three years Ella Ree ' s red hair has been a shining light on our campus. The shining light of her life has expressed itself in her talents, and some day we shall expect to hear that Ella Ree is an artist of great renown. Hermenii rll Clllli. LOLZELLE COODV, A.B. PIIOEXIX, MISSISSIPPI ;n. ■21: K Circulo Espanol. ' 2 Student raunfil, We admire Iter for her intellect, level-mindedness and perseverance, hut we love her for her sincere, unsellish disposition. ' oman ' s College has heen fortunate in having I.onzelle, as she is a girl who has high ideals and one ivho believes in living her ideals. AiHREV Lucille Gotten, A.B. TVLERTOWN, MISSISSIPPI Pliil.jniutlivaii; Lntin C ' lul., ' 24; Home Eeonomics Club. ' 24; Athletic Association. ' iT: S.i.s.«or-s StatT, ' 27. Words could not portray her to those who do not know her — a combination of sincerity, loyalty and lovableness. Steadfast and true, she is always Audrey, sometimes changing her mind, but remaining herself the same to everyone. She is a girl who loves and is loved, who laughs and cries, who works and plays, who knows how and when to do the thing needed most. By her unaffected sweetness she will hold a warm spot in the memory of all who know her. U O ...r- -- Nell Gotten, A.B. TVLERTOWN, MISSISSIPPI Philomathean; President Class. ' 27; Student Council, ' 27; H Temperamental, ' 20; Tennis, ' 27; Pine Burr Staff No matter ivhere you look, No matter what you find — A hundred adjectives won ' t describe her, She ' s just that kind! The essence of a wonderful girl one finds in Nell. Her leadership is remarkable, her pure common sense is unequalled, and her amiability is notable. The Red is her favorite color and friend; she is popular with all the girls, and especially the Freshmen. GUSSIE D.ALE Ch.apman, A.B.

Take a pair of eyes, full of wit and life; take a mouth that knows only to smile; take soft brown hair; add a dimple or t o, and then to this add a charming personality and label it Augusta Dale Chapman. r,n o Vera Imogrn Crawlev, A.B. SLIMRALL, MISSISSIPPI Philomathean; Prettiest Blnnde. ' 25; Johnson Concert Band; Tennis. ' Sfi. ' 2 : Basfball. ■2t. ■2(i, ■27; Hiking Club, ' 27. Ye gods! What a woman! With a face to make Fisher yearn for his brush, a figure that would malie Venus de Milo blush with shame, an attractiveness acknowledged by all who meet her, and a personality which substantiates it all. This is Vera. Be- sides this, she is a wonderful friend. Edna Glenn Clark, A.B. MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE Hermenian; F. Co. A. Club; Student Council. ' 25. ' 20; Hilcing Club, ' ie, -27. Edna is one who lives such a beautiful life others follow her without question. She is always kind, but to the less fortunate she excels in kindness. She commands respect because of her service to others. Quiet, courteous and always friendly. She is the living example of that bit of philosophy — To thine own self be true — and she is so true to herself she can never be false to anyone. Edna makes the most of each day ' s oppor- tunities, and is constantly employed. She lives, laughs, loves and suffers with her com- panions. The regret of her classmates is that Edna cannot always be in our midst to lead us by the light of her beautiful life to greater, higher, nobler things. .4 O) r r- - r - A ( I Stella Kate Duxlavv, A.B. AVERA, MISSISSIPPI I.e rle Fi (Mull. F.iu: Club. As we look into the future ve see an alert, wide-awake school teacher in the person of this Stella Kate. Already she has proved her ability, and we are confident that she will accomplish the great things for which we know she is prepared. Stella Kate is engagingly frank, a good student, possessing a dry humor. It is seldom that one finds such a rare combination of qualities, and as ve look at her we remember that still water runs deep. A faithful friend and a zealous seeker after knowledge. We are glad it has been our privilege to know Stella Kate. Damie Lou Dampeer, A.B. NEW HEBRON ' , MISSISSIPPI Philomathean; Stude Staff. -27: Hiking Club, Damie is a girl who needs no such lisping tongue as mine to sing her praises — a living proof that a girl can be both attractive and capable. She is nothing short of a genius, having managed to combine love and books with a success that would amaze you. In short, a synonym for loveliness, sincerity and dependability — and Paul. If she never reaches pin- nacles of fame as an actress of drama we know whose fault it will be. r- , •«Ml- M RTLn: Rae Davis, A.B. WIGGINS, MISSISSIPPI HtTmenian; SkcUli I ' lub. ' 25, ' Si;, ' 27; Pine Burr Staff. •2ii- ' 27. An artist in all things — so sweet, so gentle and so patient — is Myrtle. She moves among us in the quietest sort of way, stealing into the hearts of students and faculty. She is never satisfied with anything less than the highest grade and usually makes it. This attribute will always reserve for her a place at the very top of things. Philuniiitlu ' BiLLiE Griffith, A.B. CARV, MISSISSIPPI Glee; Cluh, Jlilhi Billie is to us, and Tommie, what ham is to eggs — absolutely essential! She ' s fun, no matter where or when or what or how. And have you heard her make a speech? Her clever use of unique expressions and her modes of emphasis are unparalleled. Though Hillman had her for two years, we ' ve enjoyed her immensely the last two vears. One mav expect great things of her and not be disappointed. Q Mary Lee Hamimack, A.B. VANCE, MISSISSIPPI Hermenian; Student Co ' 25, ' 26; M Club, ' 2(j. Varsity Squad, ' 27. 24, ' 25, ' 21); El Cii icretary-Treasurer ( ity Baskitball, 27; Captain of Tt seems that all the attributes of an ideal college girl are blended in Mary Lee — ambition, capability, earnestness and dependability. In fact, she is the kind of girl who knows the right thing to do at the right time, and never speaks unless she has something valuable to say. We love her, and W. C. will miss her when she leaves. MvRA Hemeter, A.B. HATTIESBURC, MISSISSIPPI Intellect walking out in the form of a mere slip of a girl is a thing not usually found on a college campus, but Myra is not a usual type. She is capable of discussing any sub- ject, however deep or however frivolous. This is not the only uncommon quality that Myra possesses, for she has the ability to make friends and to keep them. With her intellect goes lovableness. ' i -, n ■ 1 ft r ... C-. Vera Marguerite Harrellsox, A.B. SVLVARE.VA, MISSISSIPPI Hcrnu ' iiiaii; El Circulo Espanol. ' 27. One has only to look at ' era to know that she is a lovable little person. Petite, modest, loving and just sweet — that ' s Sam. She is fun-loving and business-like. She is loved by such a vast host of people and she is so deserving of the love that is hers that we know she will always attract people to her with the same unfailing charm. She is a person we can always count on to help and to do her very best. Her steps through college life are marked by deeds of loving kindness and many services. She will always win in anything she attempts, and she will always be busily and actively engaged. ! IAR • Maurine Jordax, A.B. GULFPORT,, MISSISSIPPI Class Poet, ■25- ' 2ii; Y. ■«-. A. Tieasurur, •2i;- ' 27; B. S. U. Life Service Band. Kindness, thoughtfulness and unselfish service are the passports that will gain admis- sion to any door in life. But when one goes out from college taking these as keys to unlock her future, there will never be a door to success she cannot enter, and we know that Maurine is well prepared to do anything she is called to do. Such dependability as is hers is to he sought for and commended. Her Christian influence will remain on the campus. c- Julia Tov Johnson, A.B.

Her magnetic personality mani- fests itself in her leadership of her class during its freshman and junior years. Beloved bv many, adored by all, the world holds open to Judy a kingdom of happiness and of joy in whatever she undertakes. Fr.ances Morris, A.B. FERVWOOD, MISSISSIPPI Hermenian; Hiking Club, ' 26; Tennis Captain, ' 27; Sci.ssor.s Staff. ' 27. Loveliest of lovely things is she. Someone went into a garden and gathered the soft beauty of the lily, the pale tenderness of the forget-me-not, and the glowing loveliness of the rose. From these an adorable being was made, and her name was called Frances. ikU ' ilt Y. W. Lucille McClurg, A.B. RULEVILLE, MISSISSIPPI I., ' 27; Vife-President Junior Clas 26; Student Council. She is a clear portra.val of lavender and old lace, and reminds one of a lovely old- fashioned bouquet, this dainty little person known as Lucille. Her soft drawl and her sunny disposition, combined with loyalty and ability, make her altogether adorable and charming. Christine Moxtgomerv, A.B. BRAXIOX, MISSISSIPPI Student Couniil. Tennis Club; A glance at Christine makes one think of math and chemistry, which are verv unusual qualifications for a girl. Her face shineth with the light of triangles, cubes and formulas, but underneath is the all-round college girl and true friend. We wish for her the best that life can offer. __v_j: [ermenii in; Lite Service Band; Home Ecoi ,ite Sel rice Band. ' 24, ■25; Vice-President O ' Briant B. Y, P. U., ' 26; Vicf Trannye Mae Odom, A.B.

Long ago Trannye has been welcomed into that inner circle known as The Ministry of Women. It is an enviable record that she has left us. A record of achievements, of honors, of days well spent, of thoughts becoming to a true woman, and a record of four years of loval service. Years of putting others first, thinking of self last. So Trannye to us means simply a wonderful girl with a heart of pure gold. The sincerity of her conse- crated life has made her indispensable to W. C. girls, and we predict for her every suc- cess in anything she undertakes. ■ MixxiE Oswalt, A.B. TUNICA, MISSISSIPPI of B. Y. P. LT.. ' 20; General Dii B. S. U. Co One who has more than her share of genius, wit and wisdom. With Minnie one always associates nobleness of character, kindness and dignity, but not the least of her charms is her wonderful mind. From her Freshman days of greenness to her Senior days of knowl- edge, her ability in all literary lines are remarkable. n Helen Polk, A.B., F.A.

Centuries have passed, and into the years have gone the making of another Helen, surpassingly fair, with the charm of Cleopatra, the gentle loveliness of Juliet, and the tenue of a young boy. Combined with these char- acteristics she has a certain sane wisdom that makes her of the world and not a myth herself. She is exquisite as an orchid, vivid as the most colorful painting, fragile as Venetian glass. She will take her place in the world, a charming bit of feminine daintiness, a talented, capable woman, a magnificent being, a devilish child. Myrtis Price, A.B. INVERNESS, MISSISSIPPI Philomathca College; Dr, Surely the gods attended her christening — they brought their gifts of beauty, knowledge, wit and congeniality, and laid them at her feet. Her ability to wield the scepter of leader- ship has been shown in her administration as president of the Philomathean Literarv Society. Myrtis is a popular girl because of her sweet and friendly disposition. B- Vv ' Berexice Qlixn, A.B. GREENWOOD, MISSISSIPPI Philo Stude -•27; Hiking Club. ' 25 Quisenberry Essay Team. ' 2ii- ' 2 25. Berenice ill have a rich life; living to her is such a glorious sort of adventure, and she has helped show us the beauty of it, too. She has captured our admiration by her genuineness and resourcefulness. She can adapt herself to most any given situation, and thus ve recommend her as a splendid companion and pal. Joanna Rhineh.art, A.R. LEAKESVILLE, MISSISSIPPI Bun- Staff. ' 26, She possesses a personality that is a healing balm for the blues. With her witty remarks and jollv disposition she has become indispensable. She is dependable and accurate in every phase of work. She is ever ready to help others, and she has the characteristics of a wonderful pal. Her humor and originality have gained for her a host of friends, and she will be missed a great deal when he has gone. a ' k . Elvira Roberts, A.B. newton, mississippi Stufltnt at Clarke College, •24- ' 2rj. Being the smallest member of her class is one of her distinctions. Her charming voice is another, but the most outstanding is her intellect. She is a noted authority in English, and gracefully keeps this place. Her daintiness and charm serve to make her a favorite. Born for romance, she loves and is loved. Her devotion to poetry is most ardent. All in all, she is a charming girl and a wonderful comrade and pal. Winnie Alm.a Rochester, A.B. MORTON, MISSISSIPPI culo Espa 26: Feild Co-operati To Winnie has been given the capacity of making friends, and that is just what she has done. She has reached out from her great heart and drawn us all into its warmth. Winnie has been a valuable asset to the Class of ' 27, and her classmates will alwavs remember her with feelings of gratitude because of her influence here. She has a part in everything because of her unobtrusive way of sharing herself vith others. She is one of the best and finest girls who has ever gone to college anywhere, and we are proud to claim her as a Woman ' s College girl. I Velima Ruth Smith, A.B. GUNN, MISSISSIPPI niali; El Cirrulo Espanol: Vi D. Bennett B. ' Y. P. U.. It is an unusual combination that we find in Velma. To be uise of head and wise of heart is indeed rare, but that is what has endeared Velma to us along with her strong courage and sweet, serene gentleness; withal, a heart full of feeling and thoughtfulness have doubly increased our admiration for her. To us she has been a shining example and we will watch with interest her progress in life because we are confident that one with her capabilities will continue to lighten the burdens of others with her lovely personality. Norma Sauls, A.B. TiXERTOWN, MISSISSIPPI Historian, ' 24; 25; Le Cercle Franc •24, ' 25. ' 26; Life Service Band, Blessed with the qualities that are inherent in a noble woman. Norma goes along loving and helping, thereby gathering unto herself scores of friends. The most understanding of friends herself, always in a good humor, always sympathetic — and she did not have to cultivate her disposition! She influences all who know her, making some smile, helping others. Your presence here has been helpful to your friends. Norma. May success be yours now and alwavs. r-. j Arda Stringer, A.B. lit y. w. A.. lit Volunteer Band, ' 20; Scissors Staff. Through her brown eyes shines the light of a soul full of love for everyone. A soul yearning for expression and satisfied only in service for others. Her intellect might seem cold and even her kindness seem officious if back of it we did not see just Arda. Thus Arda is the embodiment of all the qualities that go to make a true friend to humanity. Nobility of character is the outstanding characteristic of this . rda of ours.

The hearts of Woman ' s College girls are stepping stones to the highest peak of popularity, bearing testimony of the love and admiration she inspires in all her associates. Would you have wisdom?

She is as picturesque as a g psy, as regal as a princess, and withal as gay and comradely as your best pal. She is a good sport, enters into everything with the same vivid enthusiasm. Every college has its Ann, but our own delightful Annie Kate surpasses them all in the individuality that is her own. Mattie Lou Ward, A.B.

Sue has proved herself worthy of the place she holds in all oui ' hearts. She has won fairly the praise and love of her classmates. Beneath that captivating way Sue has of combining her naturally friendly disposition with a bit of blarney and penetrating wit, she is a true and noble woman. In the unsounded depths of her soul we can read the poignancies of joy and s orrow, the sympathetic understanding of a friendly heart reaching out. Just a darn good fellow. A girl who is trustworthy; she is gay, she charms all with her cleverness, her originality and intellectuality. She is Sue, and we could do nothing greater than wish for all the happiness and success of a life well lived. o .nPnOnfN ' ' 2 LoNA Bill Braswell, Certificate in Oif an.

She is a complex compound of wit and seriousness, blended in ju«t the right way to make a fascinating personality ready with a smile— or a frown if the occasion demands it Bill IS just the right sort, lovable and true.

Some are born with it— some manufacture it, but Naomi has alwavs had it— an un- deniable charm A petite figure, a charming smile, a most winning personality, and just a light of mischief in those eyes make her a favorite among all the girls. Her lovelv voic- is only one manifestation of her sweet Christian life. She is altogether lovelv and charm- ing, and we love her. Sallie Davis, F.A., Piano.

In davs to come when we indulge in reminiscences of school days, one of the first to pass in review will be Sallie. Intriguing Sallie, whose eyes see only the best and most beautiful things of life, and whose very vivacity is a constant source of joy to all of us. This splendid person, who is Sallie in her own unobtrusive way, has won the hearts of all her associates with her magnetic personality. She is one whom we are proud to claim as a friend, as a classmate, and as a true representative of Woman ' s College. EvELYX Hay, F.A., Art. DONALSONVILLE, GEORGIA Pliilomathe Sketch Club, ■resident Sketch Club, ' 26: Espanol. ' 26; B. Y. P. U. Council, There are so many nice things that one may say of Evelyn that we hardly know just where to begin. She is one who merits the highest esteem, regard and honor. To say that she is sweet, sincere, lovely and lovable is not saying the half of it. She belongs to a type all her own, and she is distinctly — Evelyn. We know of nothing that can turn her from the path of success and happiness. o GHNnviKvr: Ghorge, Certificate in Speech Arts. SILVER CREEK, MISSISSIPPI Philomatliean; Dranli tir Club. -27. Loyal, lovable and lovely — that ' s Jenny. She Is a dreamer of dreams — dreams of the most delightful sort, that are about a great actress, and her name is Jenny. After one knows this bewitching little creature it is no exaggeration to say that her personality em- bodies all that is lovable and happy.

There ' s a twinkle in her eye that portrays a keen sense of humor. She will find the fun if it ' s there. She may be a pigmy in statue, but she is a giant in heart. Shall we wish her good luck? Yes, a thousand times, and as a new day unfolds before her may the door of real life open wide to her — a life of purpose, service and happiness. Olivia Heard, F.A., Speech Arts. VAUGHN, MISSISSIPPI Philomathean; Hlllman College. ' 25; Dramatic Club, ' 27. Although Olivia has been a member of our student body for only two years, she came with every good recommendation from her former classmates. It did not take us long to note her sterling qualities. She is a happy, understanding sort of person, and a source of ever-present joy. She has taught us many things during the short time she has been here, and not the least of these is to love Olivia. We part with her with joy and regret — joy be- cause we know that she will bring happiness to her future associates, and regret because we will no longer be associated with her as classmates.

Ruth to the Freshman is an idol worshiped from afar ; to the Sophomore, an ever- inspiring big sister; to the Junior an inspiration, and to the Seniors an ideal companion. A vivacious bundle of glowing excitement, she has made life happier for many a homesick Freshman, and she has encouraged and cheered to nobler efforts many a discouraged upper classman with her spontaneous optimism and her ever-present smile. Her one consuming desire is to be dignified, and it is hoped that she will attain this attribute — later. o FranciiS Landrcm, F.A., Voice LAUREL, MISSISSIPPI Literary Society Vice-President Student Like an exquisite piece of music created by a master hand and played on the organ of human hearts is this Frances. Music with a combination of tones and variations. The delicate laughing, lilting notes of a Frances calling out a cheery greeting, a kind word or a merry jest. The more ordinary middle tones, the counter theme, of a Frances at work or conforming to the many demands of college life. The majestic deep tones of the main theme bearing testimony to a charmed life of hidden treasures. The tone of a clarion call sent out to challenge the best in her companions. She is a song, a poem, a flower, a fay that would divert Sir Galahad in his search for the Holy Grail. The attractiveness of her personal appearance is but the outward manifestation of a beautiful life. One of God ' s choicest creatures, a lovely girl, loving, friendly, sweet, unsophisticated, temperamental, and yes, sentimental. She is an accomplished musician, but that is only one of her many talents for Frances has the faculty of doing everything well. Her influence is boundless, and her strength is as the strength of ten because her heart is pure. Willie Magee, F.A., Piar EDIN ' BURC, TEXAS French Cluh. IVAllegro dull. Student Cou One just cannot help love Willie, even if one tried. With her genuine good humor, she has ability, a delicate musical touch, and an all-round eHSciencv. Perhaps she ' s a wee bit quiet, but when one really does become acquainted with her, one finds all sorts of admir- able qualities, and not the least of these is a fine sort of camaraderie.

Student Council, -Philoniathe There are several Elizabeths — the musician, the clever student, the sincere friend, and the attractive girl. Nutt is a typical college student, and her laughing brown eyes and queenly statue mark her as a distinctive personality. RuRYE Leigh Reid, F.A., Art. PICAYUNE, MISSISSIPPI z Lovable, capable, witty and always ready to lend a helping hand makes her a favorite with all who know her. Her ability to fit into a place unexpectedly makes her altogether dependable. And is she friendly? Yes, a flash of twinkling brown eyes and an ever ready smile reveal an optimistic disposition and an enviable nature. Maybe this accounts for her manv friends at M. W. C. ■ A W - y n ( . C-.

Large sums were spent upon the library; the space and equipment for the chemical and biological laboratories were practically doubled ; the faculty was strengthened and Prof. L. Q. Campbell of Simmons University was secured as Dean. When the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools met at Jackson, Miss., in December, 1926, the IVIississippi Woman ' s College was admitted to full membership. So runs the story of the first fourteen years of the college. If that Providence which has guided its course, heretofore, shall continue to be a pillar of fire by night, and a pillar of cloud by day, the historian of future years will smile as he reads of these events which seem so marvelous to the present generation.
