What the yearbook said

Who is there in the class of ’27 who will forget the good-natured “Milly” who has smiled and smiled, taken afternoon sessions and afternoon sessions, and continues to smile? Even the teachers will agree that four years of such sessions have not dulled that smile. Milly has a most agreeable disposition. There is one and only one way to get her cross. Say something about her favorite teacher. Say it, but prepare for action. There is one thing that “Milly” thinks less of than a boy. That is two boys. She seems to be able to tolerate one, however, if his name happens to be the same as hers. Mildred intends to become a stenographer and if her future may be judged by her past she is sure to be a success.
