N Qi X XXX X E Q I gi, as X x NORMAL OFFERING 27 ' BIRD, MARGARET ANDREWS, 89 Central Street, East Bridgewater. O. I. C., '20-'22, Train Student Govern- ment Council, '23-'24, W. A. A., '23-'24. It isn't every class that can boast of a bird, particularly our kind of a songster. She's very small--but-you should know her. Birdie never misses a humorous point, and in fact always supplies us with some. May I mention the much discussed subject of crushes To have a crush or not to have one-is that your attitude Birdie? We'll have a conference concerning that problem. Be sure to organize an ultimate and proximate aim. Never Birdie, during your forty odd years of teaching forget the Thursday morning aesthetic dancing class, pas de basques and all. . BRADY, ANNA MORGAN, 208 James Street, New Bedford, c A Mass. Library Club,, Secretary, '21-'22, Glee Club, '20-'22, Dramatic Club, '22-'24, O. I. C., '20-'23, President, '22-'23, W. A.

Anna Brady, though a member at some time or another of practically every organization in school, manages, with no apparent ef- fort, to keep on the honor roll, while her brilliant re- partie keeps her classmates amused during study periods. But Anna has won that supreme victory-that co-ordination between mind and body which is the goal of the whole Normal School. E X N N x Pi 2,39 'X Weiss,- y -kg. 0 .sff?5Q::-g5::5::,::.

VVas it not this same Buzz that made possible the reflected glory which enveloped the whole class, when she hiked from coast to coast in the summer of 1922? The tales of the hike provided us with material for wonder all the next year But do not Judge from this that all and Modern Problems she was often a ray of light, much to the relief of the rest of the class. i ..,..... . a frff I - ',', ' ':., li.'.. . - , , , , ,I Buzz's talent runs to hiking.

Isn't she our Modern Problem shark? Gertrude came to us from Lowell Normal School, September, 1922, and was a welcomed addition to B. N. S. If Gert. is a fair representative of Lowell Normal girls, we certainly can admire our Lowell sisters. During her first year at B. N. S. Gert. made many friends in the classes with which she associated,-one especially who comes back week- ends to see her. .

26 NORMAL OFFERING every member feels capable of conducting an intelligence test in the scientific way. From our history class we have original maps of every part of Europe, and also know that Garibaldi was in no way con- nected with the fire-department of Europe. Strange information has been obtained from the geography classes, but no longer will we classify eggs as dairy products. It was embarrassing at first to have the sociology instructor ask us if we intended to marry, but we regained our self-possession and now can discuss economic questions fluently. Our study in literature developed our critical taste, and gave us The Boston Transcript as our newspaper standard. Dur- ing the course in the history of education we gained an idea of the evolution of our present school system, but of far greater worth has been the influence exerted by the admirable personality of our teacher. From our discussions of the modern problems of teaching has come the phrase that shall guide us in the future, for no one can forget to fill life with 'fwhole-hearted purposeful activity. Class A has reached the end of its journey, and, as it passes the last milestone, each member has a heart filled with gratitude for the guidance and wisdom of our beloved principal, for the never-failing patience of our teachers, for those at home who made it possible for us to have this journey, and for the priceless friendships formed here. Four years spent within the doors of Alma Mater have given us a definite aim in life, and we go forth as graduates, Not to be ministered unto, but to minister. r ?-f------'- - - --- ----v . - ...VV vw.. 5 - .,,-. - - .1 ,fiPM2:1:.112-1:-:1:I'sys.:'::::::355:3::f:..'.r' f ,gf :ss-2 - ' rzrrrtz'-'amz'1-'1r:'-rw:.f..- '- if 44+ ,: 31: 3-.551-:1:r1:p.:: ,:.-fs ' ., 4 ,., .6 ,,,.., Z ,., 1 ,.,.. .. ng, I' 1 , 1:1:1i:5:a::12:1f22EEERE!!aiskiaiiaiaietraiiziEsEi5iiEEE52:5:e:2s: Y , , af f m 5 H ,ff 1 5 . f 9 . av if 4' Q I J a ' e f ' f Q, f A f 1 , , c vf f 1 if , 4 ' f ,ff 351' ,f 3 C' . 4:.:5,9:35' ,. ,.,: . 45 276' '-:ar-'ff - ..

Teddy came to us from Bridgewater High School, and we are glad she did, for she has proved a valuable member of our class. She is always ready for either work or play and does either with a winning smile. 'Of the many things she has done in four years with us nothing has given her greater fame than her solo dances in Hymenapfthera where her grace and charm added much to the entertainment. When we go from Normal we shall greatly miss this fair and Winsome maiden.

P. U., W. A. A., '23-'24, You were a quiet body when you came to us, but, no! times haven't changed, but Virginia has. We don't regret it, we approve. When anyone wants a reliable, capable piece of work done, Virginia, ever re- sponsible and trustworthy, came to the front. The third year she nearly burned the telephone wires out of com- mission with constant use. That, too, we most gracious- ly forgive. Who else could have taken care of Prom. business as efficiently as 'Ginia? Lastly, the fourth year, and all its joys. GILMAN, JENNIE BERENICE, 1039 Washington Street, ' North Abington, Mass. Glee Club, 1922-'24. From Ab- ington came this maid to our midst. Jennie believes wholly in thinking before leaping. A deliberate young lady to say the least. In Glee Club Jennie is the solo- ist of note. We do enjoy sweet contralto voices, Jennie B. She is not a noisy girl, but modest and unassum- ing. Jennie, explain this, please. In psychology, fourth year, you announced in reply to instructor's question upon experiment with hens . . . Not having been a chicken . . . Jennie! By this time she has all the rec- ognized principles of education firmly in hand. She even went back during visiting day at Brockton High School, to glean a few more facts. Good luck to you in v x E the future, classmate. ,.,.,,,,,., ,.,,,,.,, .,,,5.,,,,,,,,, ,,:,,,,,,, ::, b pn - GOODE, ANNA KATHERINE, 11 Fairview Avenue, Ran- . qoqvvw-Nnisv-uaN-X ' N Ei.:-1:EQ5:::E1E'7:7:SFIZ5!lfZ'I7I :Z'27 .:ZIii -' 3I ':'v 1 .N .

Anna K. is one whom we all know, and whom we all like She is as her name suggests, good, ' but remember, we must not be simply good, but good . Ihq, A for something. Ever cheerful, jolly and gay is she, with a broad smile for all of her friends, short and tall, thick and thin. She believes that a lighted candle hid- den under a bushel box in a dark room is one of no 'value. One day during a visit to psychology, she be- came acquainted with Divided Attention and ever --iiz .,,, f.- izif since, she has carried the idea artfully to all of her classes. GOODVVIN, HENRY RUSSELL, 10 Lincoln Street, Brook- so field, Mass. Kappa Delta Phi, manager of basketball, 1921-'22, '22-'23, football, 1922-'23. The door opened, out stepped a young man and looked around. The door behind him bangs and suddenly there appears around the corner of Normal Hall a HO, Hen-can you lend me a pencil? I simply must have one to score a game be- tween the Who Doos and the Whirlwinds, Sure, but I've only got one and of course-but then I'll cut it in half for you, so Henry pulls out an old love letter, and from the deep recesses of an inner pocket, a pencil. He requests Anna to hold both ends of it and proceeds to inform her he can magically break it with his paper -which trick he triumphantly accomplishes, while she watches carefully and then looks up quizzically to say, How'd you do it, Hen?
