MABEL ANNA SMITH French "Smitty" North Tarrytown, New York Tarrytown High School Philomathean Literary Society; Y. W. C. A.; Y. J. C.; J. G. C.; S. S.; N. M. A.; Choir; Class Basketball; Powder Puffs: Choral Club; President, Y. J. C. Club, '25; Secretary, S. S.; Organist at S. S.; Vice-President, Philo, '25; Honorable Mention, '24. "'To know her is to love h~r." Y OU will all agree with us that a more lovable character, a more winning personality, or more versatile person has never graced our campus. Has one ever mentioned anything that she could not do? Never! Every phase of college life finds her an active participant. She ranks high in her studies; excels in tennis and basketball; and is a devoted and untiring worker in the "Y," in S. S. and in all her clubs and societies. An announcement of "special music" usually precludes the fact that Mabel is either going to sing or play. Among the "Parlorites" she has a reputation for revealing to the timid, back, ward, or declared women-haters all the pleasures of "parlor;" and then-we hate to admit it, for really it is the only cruel trait we find in her-she lets them drop, gently perhaps, but with an unmistakable air of finality. This fickleness, however, is not found in her relations with her friends among the girls; for a truer, kinder friend could not be wished for. Impulsive, yet loyal; gay, but sincere; capable and ambitious, could there be a better foundation for success? [113 ]
