DOROTHY RIDGELY BAUGHMAN English "Dot" Baltimore, Maryland Western Maryland Preparatory School Philomathean Literary Society; J. G. C.; P. D. C.; F. R. S. O. E. "Our character is our will, for what we will we are." "AHEAD to contrive and a hand to execute" typifies "Dot." Heralded by a remarkable high school record, this young lady came to us during Prep School days; and, we must confess, we were somewhat awed by her superior knowledge. Although she is generally known as a devotee at the shrine of the illustrious goddess of wisdom, she is also a confirmed follower of Terpsichore; and indulges her love for dancing at every opportunity, even creat- ing that opportunity, if it fails to appear. To those who know her more closely, "Dot" has always been a great source of help and inspiration. It is in her room that you always find a group of girls the day before exams, not only because they are eager for "Dot" to impart to them some knowledge from that vast storehouse of her own, but also because they like the sunny atmosphere that pervades the place. "Dot's" greatest desire is to become a successful writer, and we know of no reason why she should not realize this ambition. Hers is a keen intellect, a vivid imagination, a surprising command of words. Why should she not go far in her chosen profession? [82}
