ETHEL MARION GRAY 149 Beech Street. Holyoke Ethel ' s spectacles are very deceiving, say we. They would lead you to believe thai she is very quiet and studious, and quite beyond such things as turning somersaults and whistling lustily such favorites as Out on the Deep. We remember Ethel as a veritable Babe Ruth on the baseball team. We wish our music editor success in her teaching profession. ' 1 1 FRANCES MAUDE GRIFFIT1 1 163 Elm Street, Gardner Another Gardner inhabitant who burns the midnight oil at Palmer J [all is Frances. She is the girl who can always be depended on to help us out in any difficulty, particularly in the household arts line, for she is an expert needlewoman as well as a good cook. When she i not engaged in sewing she is tak- ing care of young sister. All the best wishes i Twenty-Two are yours, Frances. i 3 cn I H Fl I ■t.

During the winter she spends her time in the gymnasium and in ihe summer she keeps cool in the swim- ming pool, incidentally teaching the younger generation bow to float. As apple pie without cheese, no is (.race without her Dunnie! ( »ur best wishes go with her into the future. MAI Dl ELIZABETH HILL i ' .aker Stn dner Maudic, our little brunette from Gardner, has one favorite pastime dancing. However, it is nol the kind we have in gym. She says she can manage her feet perfectly, but when sin also has to maneuver her arms and wrists and tilt her bead in a prettj manner, she decides she never will enter the profession of dancers. Maude is a commuter and tbe tell US there is a lively time on the I I I irdner. Gooclby, Maude ire glad thai we have known you, and we ' ll remember you alw a;

ANNA LOUISE DURANT 124 Florence Street, Now Bedford iina is one of the best-loved residents of Palmer Mall. She is always read} for a good time and never too occupied with the pursuits of knowledge to enjoy a dance al Lincoln Park. ima once visited the fountain of youtli and had a chance i be Young forever, but decided id join the staff of Ford enilm siasl s. MARION KAVANAUGE ELMER 14 Prospect Street, Millers Falls -All right, let ' s go! Rah! Rah! among us will ever forget Marion, oui ah! Fitchburg! Who .- cheerleader, as she gave he signal just before we attempted to burst our throats at those games in die gym? Full of enthusiasm, alive and up-to-the- minute, not only in sports but in school work as well, Marion surely deserves the praise and best wishes that her classmates bestow on her. SABINA BERNICE FLATLEY 62 Spruce Street, New Bedford It gives us great pleasure to introduce Sabina, the little sun- shine of Palmer Hall. We have never requested anything that her general store did not hold, pianos, peanuts or S. B. cough- drops. She persists in holding up the Gardner train while she writes just one more line in that everlasting daily letter. As an arguer, Sabina has no superior, her method being to drown her opponent in a torrent of sound— and some words. If oblig- ing generosity counts in Heaven, we ' ll see Sabina ' s name inscribed on the first page of Gabriel ' s Book. AGNES GERTRUDE FOLEY 196 Main Street, Leominster Last year when we were casting about for a Junior Priscilla lor our Thanksgiving party, we found Agnes. In her costume of gray, her while cap, and long braids hanging over her shoul- ders she might have stepped out of thai famous picture— - Why don ' t you speak for yourself, John? However, it seems she has lost most of her demureness this year, for she is very much alive in all her classes— especially science! With Florence she comes from our neighbor city, where she is as popular as she is at Ni irmal.

BLANCHE GRACE HOLT Chester Depot, Vermont No, you ' re wrong. Blanche is not as quiel and peace-loving a person as she looks — but don ' t misjudge her because of this. For an all-around student, never losing her temper, but giving as good as she .mis, no bolter illustration can be given than the above-mentioned personage. With this brief send-off, let us review some of Blanche ' s past history, doings and misdoings. After coming to Normal she was chosen as monitor, a very good recommendation for a Junior. AH through the course she has been active in the socials and athletics, and she received honorable mention in the Wallace Essay Contest. During Senior, Dean has been more in evidence than the monitor book of other days. EVA LOUISE HOUGHTON 35 Granite Street, Whitinsville As brown as a berry is this Whitinsville maid who lives in the open every minute of her out-of-class time. Basket-ball and crew are her specialties in athletics, and Glee Club has this year become her favorite study. Every one remembers Eva as cheerleader during Junior, as she was in e vidence at every game throughout the year. With the support of scores of loyal friends she ' s sure to finish school in royal style. IDA ZOSIA JACOBS 95 Thoreau Street, Concord By the rude bridge is a very historical background for this member of the Commuters ' Club of F. N. S. Ida has very suc- cessfully overcome the many and varied difficulties which the faculty puts before every student, and still she had time, or made time, to enjoy herself to the limit. She well demonstrated her ability as a chaufTeuress a few weeks ago, when she passed the examination and won her license. It ' s a nice, big Dodge, and we are all willing to be engaged as passengers, any time you say, Ida ! ADA LYDIA JARVIS Wilder, Vermont Ada began life in the small town of Wilder, Vermont, and obtained some of her early education there. Not content with this, she came down to Massachusetts to F. N. S., where for two vears she has had an almost perfect record of attendance. In the classroom as well as outside, she is quiet and unassuming. During lectures she is very attentive and takes down copious notes, written sometimes in hieroglyphics which she alone can understand. In spite of her modest air, we are sure of her faithful friendship, and wish her the best of luck in future undertakings.
