What the page does not say.

What the yearbook said
Grace is what we all call a “jolly good fellow”, as she is a pal an,d friend to everyone. Not only is she witty and merry, but she is also a good student. Though very much interested in singing and piano-playing, she wont have much time for either when she takes up her duties in “The White Parade”. She should console herself with the thought that soon she will be Superintendent of Nurses and then her time will be her own (maybe).
