Ethel is one of the quiet, shy kind,
it took us a long time to get acquainted with her: but when we did
get acquainted, we found her to be a
true friend.
Ethel is a faithful worker
and always willing to do her part. She

Whenever

be done, give it to Ethel, for she will
carry it through without a tremor.
Ethel always liked school, and so
we think she has taken up the right
profession; however, how long she
will be interested in this profession is
a question as she is a good cook and
housekeeper, and her greatest ambition

It hasn't been hard tor

conscientious and ambitious and those

so. at least, so far.

Louneta should be called the information bureau for the girls' dormitory

the girls and also where they live. This
is also true, everyone knows Louneta.

"The best way to have a friend is to

This seems to have been Helen's
motto during her two years of work
here, for wherever she goes she is greeted with a cheery smile.
Everyone
knows her. and to know her is to love
her.

Helen is always in for a good time
and has livened up many a "gathering."
That she is also studious was shown
by the fact that she was second on the
Honor Roll during our Junior vcar.
She is an .\thletic Leader and it is her
artistic hand which decorates the athposters so often seen in the halls.
Helen's favorite topic of conversation is Penn State.
As the popular
advertisement says. "There's a reason."
and there are strong indications that
the reason is a Sophomore at the said

institution.

If ever in demand. "Peg" can always
be found in the gymnasium trving the

wc are sure she missed her vocation
by coming to B. S. N. S., because of
a sudden interest in shoes and boots?!
Accidents arc bound to happen and
this she discovered at the game between
our Normal and Seminary, but don't

"Peg" is also known for her public
speaking and athletics, especially bas-

Due to her winning personality she
has won her way into the hearts of
many and alas! not only of the female
sex.
Judging from "State" letters she
gets, we are sure her career as a teacher will not be a long one.

Success and happiness are our sincere wishes for you, "Peg."
