His is indeed a quiet but interesting personality. He is a great lover of girls (?) and a student of high standing. His humerous spells seldom occur in public, hut he is very amusing when privately interviewed. His philosophical periods usually end in another attempt at studving. Horace’s favorite study is chemistry, and the store of information he has on that subject is simpiy astonishing. Darling admits that he will probably attend Brown University next year. Best wishes! ROBERT DARLING DAVENPORT (“Bob,” “Bobby”) Motto: “Always with a smile” ADVISORY BOARD ( J», SENIOR RECEPTION COMMITTEE 111, CLASS BASEBALL (1), BASEBALL (31 (4) Here's another member of our baseball team. Last year Bob played as a substitute, but he was occasionally sent in to “Pull the game from the fire.” Bob is seen at most all of our sports—even if he does get in for nothing. He is also one of our honorable class representatives. His favorite study is history, although his teacher may think otherwise. Bob plans to go to the University of California after leaving P. H. S. Good luck. Bob. JOSEPH MAY DAVIS (“Joe,” “Doc”) Motto: “Don’t give up the ship” BUSINESS MANAGER “DADDY LONG LEGS” (3), “SALLY AND CO.” (4), ASSISTANT BUSINESS MANAGER “THE CHAMPION” (3), ASSISTANT STACE MANAGER “GREEN STOCKINGS” (4), TREASURER DRAMATIC SOCIETY (4), SENIOR RECEPTION COMMITTEE (4), ADVERTISEMENT COMMITTEE (4) Treasurer of the Dramatic Society, a member of the Advertisement Committee, and a very active member of the Rostra is a hard man to translate, but once translated he proves to be a genuine friend. He is also a great man with the ladies, for he has been seen as many as four times with a high school girl. W ell, never mind. Joe. that s one trouble you won’t have to worry about. We don t know what you intend to do in the future, but we certainly wish you luck. EFEIE LOUISE DAWES (“Effie”) Motto: “To have a friend, be one. DRAMATICS (4), HONOR SOCIETY What? Did you ask who that quiet blonde-haired girl is in Room 22C? W hy, everyone knows Effie. And she is not so very quiet when she is with her friends. She is one of those remarkable people who are never too late but never too early—just in time to finish a piece of homewrork. That is what is called brightness: just like her hair. When she graduates, Effie expects to sail forth into the business wrorld. We know she will be very capable, and we wish her every success.

Do you accept “Hillside” as a compromise, Ed? Bugling is his favorite amusement, much to the despair of the neighbors, I presume. He has become exceedingly proficient in his favorite art, however, but forgets his bugle when requested to play in public. In “Ed” we have one of those remarkable students who never carry home books but remain brilliant nevertheless. Except for his fiery epithets, Edward is a very good boy. CATHERINE 1MELDA COYLE (“Kay,” “Cath ”) Motto: “Be a live wire and you’ll never get stepped on.” Who is that “petite” brunette who sits in 22C amidst a throng of admirers? It is none other than our own little Kay,” as usual the center of fun and laughter. Kay’s favorite pastime is dancing and we know she more than “trips the light fantastic.” Since “tvpe” is her favorite subject we expect to see her in some office working for a very fortunate employer. Although we envy “Kay’s” future surroundings, we proudly send her forth with our very best wishes for success. JOHN JOSEPH CROMPTON (“Jack”) Motto: “Honesty is the best policy.” “Jack” is that very sociable chap who comes all the way from Fair-lawn. Everyone knows “Jack because he is so agreeable and good-natured. Ask him to do anything and he always does it. You look in Room 22C in the morning and you will always see “Jack” surrounded by a group of friends reading the morning paper over his shoulder. “Jack” chooses trigonometry and chemistry as his favorite studies. He is fond of all kinds of balls, such as baseball, basketball and policeman’s balls. Next year “Jack” is going to take up drafting in Brown Sharpe’s. The Class of 1926 feels sure that he will be successful in this line of work and will be a credit to P. H. S. EUNICE ELIZABETH CULLEN (“Lu”) Motto: “Nothing ventured, nothing gained.” To general observers Eunice is a model pupil who spends much of her time studying, but a whole lot more having a good time. If you ever want to find her, look around for Rae Kenyon and she will be there, too. Eunice declares English and history to 1 her favorite studies and we don’t much wonder when we see the marks on her report card. She loves to drive an auto and we hope she won’t run up anv telegraph poles before she enters Rhode Island College of Education next fall.

She has attained hisrh averages in all her studies, but she excels especially in I nited States History and stenography. She is also interested in any form of athletics. Next year Florence will continue her studies at Bryant and Stratton College, where she will prepare for a career as either a court stenographer or a private secretary. She will, without doubt, become very successful at either of these positions, because she has demonstrated skill in her studies. LLOYD WESLEY DENNIS, JR. (“Wes,” “Denny”) Motto: Be natural.” TRACK (4),DEBATING (4), GLEE CLUB (3) (4), ORCHESTRA ( 1 ) (2) (3) )4) Lloyd is a native of our big city. He is always in great haste, and whether he is going to orchestra practice, where his violin helps to make some of the melodious sounds that we hear during the sixth period, or whether he is just “tearing” up the corridor to get a little track practice, we leave it to you to find out. Lloyd’s favorite studies are English and history, while algebra is the contrary. Lloyd has not as yet decided upon the institution which he will attend next fall, but wherever it is, Lloyd, the students of P. II. S. wish you good luck. MARION DORIS DEYOE (“Dot,” “Dorrie” Motto: Laugh, love, and lift.' DRAMATICS (4), “GREEN STOCKINGS” (4) Here’s the kind of a girl that everyone knows and everyone likes. She always wears a smile and a good word for all. “Dorrie” is active in Student Club work, and her favorite pastime is dancing. Until recently. Doris didn’t show her dramatic ability, but her chance came in “Sally and Co.” “Dot” expects to hold down a position as “Somebody’s Stenog” next year, and the Class of 1926 is certain that Doris will remain that bright and merry girl that she has always been. CECILIA PAULINE DILLON (“Cecile,” “Celia”) Motto: “Be good, and you’ll be happy, but you’ll miss a lot of fun.” Cecilia, the girl who is hardly ever serious and who always keeps you laughing with her funny stories. Cecilia is quite tall and has brown hair and blue eyes. She spends a lot of her time reading and dancing, and her favorite outdoor sport is tennis. Cecilia frankly confides to us that she intends to be a second Helen Wills. She is going to attend Normal School and we know she will meet with success there.
