What the yearbook said

W ho has a memory so lax that he will not always remember this jovial member of our class? Pleasant recollections of the good times enjoyed while in her company will constantly visit us. Edie’s individuality is refreshing, and this trait will certainly be advantageous to her if she carries out her ambition to be a hairdresser. She has not been a participant in many school activities, but we realize that there is not time for everything. Frankness and sincerity are two of Edith’s outstanding characteristics. As long as these admirable qualities stay with you, Edie, you may be assured of the future success we wish you.
