Abbot Allen Abbot, Superintendent. 9 Ct BB % tot% Our class was called together for the first time in September, 1900, and began its career as Senior Mid- dlers by being regularly organized and electing its officers. The class spirit was well kept up by a series of spreads held during the year, and I fear that often the ten o ' clock bell found many of us anywhere but in our rooms. We had a chance to show our social and dramatic powers at the senior reception, where the play " Rubber Boots " was given by members of the class. In the spring our class was honored by having four of its num- ber Draper readers. September, 1901, ten of our original members came back for their senior year, groaning inwardly at the thought that their class was going to be so small, and 10 that they, alone and unaided, would have to fight the battle of the senior studies, but what was their joy on arriving to find reinforcements in the shape of two new girls. So with our class membership increased to twelve we started on our way rejoicing, (?) headed by the same brave southerner who steered us so safely through last year. In the earlv part of November we entertained the school by giving the annual senior reception, which was a great social success. Then for the next few weeks we were occupied in learning about our " states of conscious- ness, as such, " and as the end of the term drew nearer, our time was spent in deploring the fact that we were such complex individuals. We celebrated the arrival of snow and winter by having a senior sleighride, at which our senior privileges were fully appreciated, for we went without a chaperon. At the beginning of the winter term we had a glimpse of Andover society at a reception given at the Theological Seminary. In February, we were ushers at the Abbot Academy Club reception ; then, later in the term, we were very pleasantly entertained at one of their monthly meetings. As spring comes on it is seen that we take the lead in athletics, as was shown by the fine playing of one of our members in the basketball contest with Bradford. We hope to win more laurels by defeating 1903 at baseball, and that will end our athletic career at Abbot. It is with a feeling of sadness that we see the end of our school life approaching, but we feel certain that the influences that have surrounded us will strengthen us to bear the sorrow and to appreciate more fully the joys which the future may have in store for us. Senior CIcxbq 1902 Class Colors ROYAL PURPLE AND GOLD Flower FLUER-DE-LIS Officers Mercer Mason President Honora Spalding Vice-President Lela C. Elliott Secretary Martha Law Blakeslee Treasurer €ulu Peircc Clpery Has the honor of being the only member of our class from the beau- tiful state of Maine, where she was born at Prospect Hill. She still claims it as her home, but as she wished more knowledge than she could obtain there she came to Abbot at the beginning of the winter term, 1900. In the future she expects to diffuse this knowledge by Professor James ' most approved methods. 3onc Clark Bebell Made Rome, N. Y., famous by being born there one bright day in May, and still claims it as her place of residence. She entered Abbot in September, 1900, and has spent a great deal of her time since then planning good times for the class. As she is her parents ' only child, she expects to remain at home next winter and study music. Senior Play UTartfya Can? Blakeslee Was ushered into this world at New Haven, Connecticut, where she still lives. Prefering a clearer at- mosphere she came to Andover last fall, and " never studied so hard in all her life " as since she has been here. When she leaves us she is going home to teach her sisters and brothers Psychology, Ethics, and Theism. School Basbetball Team Captain Class Baseball Team Class Treasurer Editor of Class Book arriet Coutse Cfyase Began to grow in Deny, N. H., and as she is our tallest girl we think Derry must be a pretty good place to promote growth. After having spent three years at Abbot, next winter she expects to " study Greek, Latin, and Music, learn to cook and have a good time. " As " Variety is the spice of life, " she surely ought to enjoy it. Senior Play £ela £. (£lliott Woke up for the first time in Ply- mouth, N. H., from which place she came to us in 1900. Since then she has been busily discovering new sciences, the latest of which is " tee- ology, " the science of golf. She de- clines to say what she is going to do after graduation, but perhaps we could guess if she would give us three chances at it. Draper Reader Class Secretary Florence CEstelle letcfyer Still resides at Manchester, N. H., where one cold winter day in Decem- ber she first saw the sun. She en- tered Abbot last fall, and we don ' t know how the class could have got along without her to amuse us with tales of her funny experiences. Florence expects " to run the house " during July, which we think looks rather suspicious. Class Baseball Teain Belle Pickering 3° n5 on Began to talk at Pittsfield, N. H., one windy day in January and has kept busily at it ever since. She soon tired of such a small place, so re- moved to Manchester of the same state and now claims that as her place of residence. She came to Abbot in 1900, and after graduating expects to stay at home and " sigh for something to do. " Draper Reader French Play Senior Middle Play, igoo Editor of Courant Editor of Class Book Secretary Y. W. C. A. Senior Play Catherine Ceonora Ixing Drew her first breath in South Windsor, Connecticut. She came to Andover in September, 1899, and her highest ambition is to have Mr. Clinton chase her, but as she is never out after dark we are afraid he will never have the opportunity. She doesn ' t know just what she will do after graduation, but expects to have a good time at any rate. Class Baseball Team Senior Play Florence Cinbenberg Was born at Columbus, Ohio, from which place she came in 1900 to swell the ranks at Abbot. By the number of times she has been in and had her class photographs taken one would think she really enjoyed it, but she is not as conceited as one would be led to suppose. Next year she expects to be the leading lady in " Miss Simplicity. " Business Manager of Courant, ' o , ' 02 Business Manager of Class Book Class Baseball Team Senior Play 2Hcrcer ZHason " The head of our school " smiled for the first time in San Antonio, Texas. She is a genuine army girl, which fact is shown by the answer which she gave to the question as to present residence : " ' All packed up on the cars ' as usual. " She has been working hard in Abbot since September, ' 98, and in the future expects to " loaf and be happy. " President of Class President of Fidelio Society President of Athletic Association Draper Reader, ' ??, ' 00, ' or Mandolin Club French Play Senior Play Business Manager of Class Book ZHiloreb CL 2Hooers Arrived in the busy (?) city of Law- rence, Mass., one beautiful August morning. She entered A bbot as a day scholar in 1897, thus being the charter member of our class. This year she has been a boarder and has missed the pleasure of traveling back and forth so much that next year she expects to travel contin- ually, although perhaps not just be- tween Lawrence and Andover. Class Baseball Team onora Spalbirtg First appeared in society in New York City. Wishing a change of climate and scenery she came to Andover in September, 1900, but expects to return to her busy life next winter. She has always been taught to be accommodating, which is shown by the fact that if, in base- ball, she can ' t hit the ball, she allows the ball to hit her. President Y. W. C. A. Vice-President of Class Senior Play Draper Reader ' oi Editor of C our ant Editor of Class Book R KeeJ tit (prophecy A Sibyl, the Cumean called, While passing on her way To join her sisters in the East, Thro ' Andover did stray. No kindly hand was stretched to her, No friend was there to greet, " Ah me, " sighed she, " I needs must stop To rest my weary feet. " Before her tired eyes, there loomed An ivy-mantled wall ; " Familiar that doth seem, " said she, " Ah, yes! ' tis Abbot Hall. " And then with falt ' ring step and slow She climbed the granite stair, Pushed open wide the portal old, And, ent ' ring, found me there. ' 9 She answered to my wond ' ring glance, " A Sibyl old am I. " " Oh, yes ! You sold King Tarquin books, Your price, I think, was high. " " It ill becomes a maiden young To judge of wisdom ' s price, Learn all thou can ' st, reck not the cost, " Said she, " is my advice. " " Thy words, though pert, have proved to me That I am known at last. Believe me, when in Learning ' s hall On yonder hill I asked, If they of Sibyls e ' er had heard, Or of their wisdom learned, Those boys yelled, ' Sure ! In Salem fires As witches they were burned. ' " Now since thou knowest of my fame, A boon I ' ll grant to thee. I ' ll lift the veil which hides the face Of dim futurity. " Quoth I, " This favor then of thee I ' ll ask, and nothing more : For senior girls, disclose the lot The future holds in store. " In solemn tones she then began, " Thy hand extend to me And thou shalt know the girls as they Full ten years hence shall be. Before us comes a matron kind, She was Miss Avery Surrounded by her tiny brood She smiles contentedly. 20 " A bachelor apartment gay Miss Katherine doth keep, ' Tis said she wrestles nightly there With social problems deep. And there her dear friend, Harriet Chase, (E ' en now they cannot part) Doth keenly view the modern stage As critic of that art. " Honora, as an editor, Is known for miles around ; The equal of her mighty pen Has never yet been found. Miss Florence, in the business world, Has met with great success ; While Martha at the bar has proved A wonder — nothing less. " And Lela Elliott set forth, Like John of old, to teach The means by which the savage red The pearly gates might reach. Ere long, it seems among the whites She found some heathen men ; One convert so attractive proved She ne ' er came back again. " Within a city hospital, The faces all grow bright When Mildred Mooers, the nurse, appears Amid the cots so white. That fair-haired girl, in days of yore Miss Johnston called by name, As advocate of woman ' s rights Is now well known to fame. " And one there was, her talents used In teaching district school. Well versed in Browning was the child Who came beneath her rule. But Mercer cared not long to be A wielder of the birch, Her writings show her interest deep In psychical research. " ' Twas thought that Florence Fletcher ' s voice Would make her choose the stage, But architecture, strange to say, Doth all her thoughts engage. She ' s won more fame than e ' er she ' d gain Within the calcium ' s glare, In great demand she finds her plans Of castles in the air. " That dark-eyed lass, lone Bedell, The art of music chose ; And after years of study hard, To prominence she rose. No longer does lone declare She ' s wedded to her art, Since Cupid with unerring aim Sent home a fiery dart. " And though they know that on thro ' life Their paths must be apart, A love for Abbot and the girls Lies deep within each heart. The dear, old school has many friends, But none you ' ll find more true Than they who formed the senior class Of nineteen hundred two. " She ceased, and with a stately bow She bade me then adieu ; And I her form retreating watched Till it was lost to view. Methinks that guest at Abbot Hall I never shall forget, With pleasure, too, I ' ll oft recall The girls that there I met. Lauretta M.

H., and since last fall has been doing the same thing in No. 78 Draper Hall. She also plays the piano, and " Boola " is one of her, as well as our, favorite pieces. As a member of the " Cheering Staff " she is a notable feature. She came to Abbot to prepare for Mt. Holyoke, which she expects to enter next fall. Leader of Mandolin Club Leader of Cheering Staff Florence Caura Sfyipman Pitched her first ball in Montpelier, Vt., from which place she came to us last September. She played pitcher on our baseball team, and, although her balls have not always gone over the plate, has never seri- ously injured anyone with a pitched ball. She expects to continue her studies at Smith College for the next four years. Mandolin Club Fidelio Society Class Baseball Team Sub. Basketball Team E)elen Beatrice (Eisbale Began making puns in Quincy, Mass., but as people there did not appreciate them she came to Abbot. Her highest ambition in athletics is to see Bradford beaten at basketball, which we hope will happen next year. She has been with us a year and a half, and next year will enter Wel- lesley.

II When they as girls like us roamed first These grassy lanes and woody ways, Delighted, eager, on them burst New wonders ever for their praise. They wandered in the shady grove Where violets and wind-flowers dispersed Sweet fragrance through the air, and wove Fair garlands, and gay tales rehearsed.

SENIOR CLASS ALPHABET A is for Abbot and Avery, too, Both sound and substantial, we think, don ' t you? B starts Bedell and Blakeslee as well, But how long these will serve them, ah, no one can tell. C is for Chase. Yes, Harriet Chase. Where practical wisdom our class did e ' er grace. D was the danger, the one sort, we ran, Of ending worse saints even than we began. 41 E is for Elliott, good-natured and sweet, Who never could manage those long words to repeat. F is Floss Fletcher, who at 10.30 each day Would have on each subject, " I ' m sure something to say. " G is for good, so utterly good, That learning hard lessons was like daily food. H means our hearts, devoted en tout To the dear, old school where waves the fair blue. I is the inkling which sometimes we had That Psych., Ethics and Theism would soon drive us mad. J might be Johnston, but better, yet, James, That Cambridge professor Psychology claims. K is for King from whom this heard — " Can a bug in the eye ever seem like a bird ? " L stands for Lindenberg, truly ' twas sad, She spent her young life in hunting an ad. M brings forth Mason, our leader of might. M also means Mooers, who, Mildred, is dight. N is the no, that pitiful no, But not often in class did we have to say so. Oh ! this is the class, the very best class, That classes of Abbot shall never surpass. P must be prudent, you cannot miss that, Which in describing our class does come in so pat. Q stands for quirks and quibbles, but we As a class, we may boast, of these are quite free. R means the rule or rules I might say. Did these twelve model chicks disobey them ? O, nay ! S is for Spalding, with soft gentle voice, And good disposition, a treasure so choice. T is the thing which to you we now say, Our alphabet ends here so we bid you good-day. B. P. J. 42 A heart to resolve, a head to contrive, and a hand to execute.

Holland What was the occasion on which Miss Johnston was heard to remark : " Look, what ' s looking at you ! " That ' s the way to stand in college, High in marks and want of knowledge. R. Thomson The bloom of rosy innocence her face bespeaks, But if that bloom exists ' tis all in her cheeks. C. Albee Do you take those rubbers off at night ? . Bedell 43 A babe in the house is a wellspring of pleasure. C. Castle Jokes of all kinds, ready, cut and dried. F. Fletcher ' Tis better to have tried and flunked, than never to have tried at all. M.
