Barbara Follette “Bob Woe to man who crosses her path It’s either a kiss, a biff, or a laugh Oh that eye, that baby smile! The hearts she has broken would cover a mile. Fair of figure and fair of face We ne’er could describe her in limited space Ma rgaret Guion Peg Breathes there a girl with soul so dead Who never to herself hath said, “I’d give two bits for that blond head?’’ It would also be hard to find a boy in Mynderse who hasn’t succumbed to the charm of those blue eyes. Mary King We’re proud of Mary. What class wouldn’t be? She has been a shining example of a good student, and to say that '25 is glad of her success is expressing it mildly. Mary is a good listener and a ready comforter. She has always taken a lively interest in school affairs, and the least of her good qualities is her loyalty to the class and her many friends. Horace Knight “Beefy President Knight is our lightweight champion, a knockout among the fair sex of Mynderse. He does a great many other things well. He has the manner grand yet jovial whether he’s escorting a chaperon to a dance or his latest best girl Sh! we’re telling a secret, but he’s lost six pounds. Page 14

Mary Conboy “Ted” Here’s the reason why Herman is always to be seen heading for Conboy’s Shoe Store about ten o’clock every Saturday night. “Mary, Mary, quite contrary, “Why treat Herman so?’’ “The more you blow a flame,’’ she cries, “The longer life before it dies.’’ Ted’s sunny smile and buoyant good humor will make her a success wherever she goes. Elizabeth Dilmore “Liz” Next comes our Editor-in-Chief! Here’s our hearty thanks, “Liz’’ for your untiring efforts in making this book a success. We always wondered why “Liz” liked English class so well while we were studying Johnson, and now we know! She exclaims like Johnson, “If you calla dog “Hervey” I shall love him.” Harvey Dutcher “Dutch” Harvey is one reason why the football games were well attended by the girls last fall. Then too there is the glamor of the military. He is one of those patient souls who will attempt to explain “infiltraction” to a girl. Good luck Harvey! Jeanette Dutcher “Jinny” “Jinny” smiles serenely at the woes of the world. Nothing ever penetrates her calm except the lamentable actions of her teasing twin. Its amazing how “Jinny” can pull horse hairs across violin strings and make such beautiful music. Adios and good luck from ’25. Page 13

Herald Kuney “Punk” After ga ing upon this remarkable example of human intelligence, do you wonder that as a student “Punk” has made a splendid record in all high school subjects. Moreover, he is an all around good fellow who deserves the unlimited success we wish him. Mary Medden A dash, a gasp and a breathless, “I’m here, Miss O’Brien,” always marks Mary’s daily arrival. Mary is an unusual person, laughter-loving, vivacious and in short full of pep. She is also an all-around athlete. No gathering is complete without her, for gloom departs when buoyant Mary enters. She is a decided avorite and always has a smile for each friend. Eva Messer With curly hair and twinkling eyes Eve never lets a laugh go by! Long words are Eva’s specialty, Long word that end in X and osity In fact, she’s quite an English shark Not one of us comes near her mark! Helen Nearpass Four short years ago a shy blackhaired lass entered the class of 1925. Her manner has been well worth of praise, and she helped greatly to strengthen the senior claim to dignity until she developed chickenpox and disappointed us Good luck to you always, Helen. Page 15
