Marjorie's ability to tell stories in a very charming manner established her as our own story-teller when she came to Normal School. She has exhibited ber rare power at many of our schooI's social functions, as well as in classes, during these two short years at N. A. N. S. VVe all envy her great gift of imagination and know that she will have no difficulty in keeping her childrcn interested and happy. Her sweet smile and cheerful disposition add to her magnetic personality and we feel sure that she will make a successful teacher. Shelburne Falls should be proud of her talented daughter. LORINDA LYDIA JONES Jones OTIS. MASS. Glee Club l NY. A. A. l, 2 l'frer1v work she began She did with all her hz-art. Whenever anything was to be accomplished we could be certain on every occasion that Mrs. Jones would be a most willing helper. There was never a sale, an operetta or a play presented during our two years at N. A. N. S. that she didn't have some part in making it a real success. RUTH E. JONES OTIS, MASS.

MARGARET FRANCES HICKS ttPeg!9 NORTH ADAMS, MASS. Axis Business Manager 1 Glee Club W. A. A. 1, 2 ' 'Quick, ingcn ious, forward, capable. Peg soon became a vital element to our class who was al- ways looking on the bright side of life. Her witty remarks and sud- den bursts of laughter brightened many a recitation period and class meeting. She was always willing to cooperate in our social affairs and especially the Man Dances. We have no doubt that our Peg is going to be a successful school marm. FLORENCE ISABEL HOLDEN 86FlO99 LLJOCW . AMHERST, MASS. YY. A.

If you have you'll remember how popular she is with all the little tots. Everyone knows Nellie and she is kept busy speaking to all her many friends. She has a way with children which will help her in her teaching profession. Nell's popularity does not stop with the youngsters but she has won the genuine liking of the class of '3I. She is a true daughter of Erin and her ready wit has helped us pass many hours at Normal. Especially in Gym classes does she make the time Hy and she enters into everything she undertakes with a vim. We are confident that Nell will get to the top in the game of life as she always did when helping her team win by jumping center. ALICE ELIZABETH KIVIOR b6BettyY, SAVOY CENTER, MASS. YY. A. A. I, 2 Glee Club 2 None but IIIFVSPUI can be thy parallel . Betty says she is quiet and thoughtful. How deep those thoughts lie we don't know, but we don't believe she is as quiet as she seems to be in class. She belongs to that courageous band of individuals who come each morning over wintry roads or under the hot summer sun from Adams. Her faithful patronage keeps the Berkshire Street Rail- way from going bankrupt. We don't know how long Betty will stay in the teaching game. It won't be for very long, perhaps, for one hears that she has other interests outside the schoolroom. FRANCES KLEIN 66Fran9, STOCKBRIDGE, MASS.

Though during the first week of her Junior year, Fran usually enter. d class after the second bell because she did not know where she belonged, she has since found a place in the heart of each of us Her merry giggle has worked charms in dispelling gloom and dis- contentment. ESTHER KNODEL hbKay7Y I EASTHAMPTON, MASS. W A. A. I, 2 Glee Club I, 2 Operetta I Her step is music, her voice is song. Esther impresses us as one whose philosophy of life is already satisfactory because she exhibits such a calm, purposeful exterior. In reality she is full of fun: jolly, a good sport and one who enjoys everything that comes along. 24
