It seems to me a perfect girl would have eyes like Meryl Britton’s, teeth like Hazel Griffith’s, mouth and complexion like Marietta Bridger’s, hair like Edna Mills, and a figure like Myra Benthall’s. She would be as stylish as Janice Ballentine, as neat as Rosalie Tolar, could make a speech like Estelle Carleton, could play basket ball like Vida Bryant, and could cook like Iola Bryant. She would combine a disposition like Jessie Marie Parker’s, a mind and character like Thelma Draper’s, and with a sense of humor like Elizabeth Watson’s. But are the virtues enough for one girl? they are. Therefore the Sophomore Class is “all perfect” in itself.
