H. S., we say farewell. Farewell our Alma Mater sweet, Life calls us with a beckoning hand— To hasten our reluctant feet. For four short years thy portals fair, Have kept us safe from harm and strife, And now the time has come when we Must take our places in the fight. Dear P. H. S., the time is here, When our good-byes must fain he said. When we must seek a better road, To win Life’s laurels for our heads. For some, bright Fame shall shine serene Upon the glory thou hast made, And we who find not Fame shall walk As thou hast taught us—unafraid. Dear P. H. S., thy gentle hand Has kept us ever steadfast—free, And all the ideals we have sought Through four bright years—we owe to thee. Grant we may keep thy banners high. As high as they were kept of yore. And keep the standards thou hast taught. The Class of Nineteen Twenty Four. Dear P. H. S., we say farewell— We vow to keep thy teachings safe. And though we pass from out thy gates, We shall not fail—but keep the faith. Unswerving loyalty and truth Shall follow us—although we part. And thy loved memory we’ll keep Within the chambers of our hearts. —J. Geraldine Payne.

Her cheerful (and winning) smile can make the dullest hour seem bright. At our dances, meets and games, Al is always surrounded by hopeful admirers. Her reputation for brilliancy, however, is not confined to social activities. She is one of the speediest typists that P. H. S. has ever developed. Al is also deeply interested in art, and her work in applied design testifies to the fact that she has no small amount of artistic ability. When vou're looking for a good sport, a perfect dancer, and a wonderful friend—all hail to Al Adams, Room 27. P. H. S., ’24. Next vcar Al will probably attend the Rhode Island School of Design. RUTH MERLE AITKEN (“Rufus”) Motto “Forgive and Forget.” Ruth is one of our very quietest members. She is very much interested in Domestic Art and we are told that she is a very good cook. What a housekeeper she would make! They say, Ruth, that the quickest way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Look out, boys! Ruth is very popular among the girls, especially in the morning. You see, she possesses the largest mirror in the school. Perhaps that accounts for the boys who are seen in that region every morning. We feel sure Ruth w ill make a success in whatever she intends to do next year and wish her all the luck possible. HELEN CURTIS ALDRICH (“Helen”) Motto: “Smile—it won't hurt much.” Helen is a great lover of music, and she is very talented, as those who have heard her sing can readily say. She likes many other things besides, for Mali Jongg has its place among the games, and then she is particularly fond of reading when she has an exciting tale—of course, no other kind would do. Helen says that her best-liked studies are English and applied design, hut it has been noticed that her other ones are not neglected. In all probability. Helen will proceed further into the technique of music, vocal and piano, in the coming year, and who knows what may be in store for this promising artist of the class of ’24.
