THE CRIMSON FAITH PRENTISS Boutwn Vylho could help liking Faith, who is more fond of having a good time than of doing her lessons? NVe have missed her du.ing her frequent visits to the South where, we learned. there are beautiful lakes with overhanging trees and charming Span- iards. Faith has always been popular during the time she has spent with us for she has a charming manner with which she makes many friends. She intends to enter college next fall, where, we are sure. she will foster these same charming qualities. MYRA EVELYN BRADLEY Our troubles vanish like bubbles when we come in.o :ontact with lVlyra's sunny disposition, Myra has always been a Une student and is liked by her teachers as well as her classmates. She is planning to enter Framingham Normal School ne:-'t September and we are sure of success in whatever career she has planned. RICHARD PIIERSON BREADEN Second Honors R. l. Honor Society: CRIMSON Board t-ll: Debating t-H3 Track l-ll: Orchestra t-ll: Senior Play t-ll. Dick is the jolly little Senior who surprised everyone when he Urst made his appearance as a dehater. Dick has always been more or less bashful. but he certainly erased all traces of this during the debating season and proved to be one of the most dependable and forceful of speakers on the team. During his spare periods he has helped to liven tip our orchestra. ln addi- tion to these activities he has brought himself renown in schole astic achievements, He intends to enter Brown in the fall and we hope he will gain as much lanie and honor lor himself at college as he has here.

Betty is. as you see. one of the most popular members of our class. She can dance. save lives. play baseball sing, give cheers. plav tennis. take care of socials. and whisper. Betty is not one of our notorious grinds but she is one of our notorious flirts, Many times has she lured some unsuspecting boy into conversation which caused the victim to remain after school. But Betty seldom gets caught. and with her. where whispering fails. notes travel instead. For all her frivolities we like her just the same and we wish her the best luck in whatever she attempts this fall.
