What the yearbook said

Phil is a puzzle to her closest friends (even Meb) being one of those few and fortunate mortals who can be peppy and prudent ; who can laugh, love, and be merry; and who can hold the admiration of all. Her greatest weakness seems to be her over-indulgence in whispering. Numerous sessions have been meted out to Phil as a result, but these, as all other troubles, she takes with a smile. Phil intends to take up kindergarten teaching at Gorham Normal. Loads of luck, Phil.
