This scrapbook was most likely presented to Dorothy Allen McFarland by J. P. Allen in June 1940, possibly as a gift upon her graduation from Bennett College. The scrapbook includes a clipping of a class portrait of Ms. McFarland as part of the last high school graduating class at Bennett (1932?). Numerous photos show classmates, relatives, and friends from this period. The scrapbook also includes a clipping about Belle Tobias Curtis, a prominent Bennett College instructor who died suddenly on her honeymoon, senior class and baccalaureate programs (1940), a program for a presentation of "As You Like It" at Bennett (1940), and photos of Ms. McFarland's entire graduating class.
