l928 NORMAL OFFERING ALICE GGRMAN ROACH 35 Spring Street, East Bridgewater, Mass. Day student Council '24, Hockey '24-'25, Baseball '24. Alice is a very sociable personage who always looks cool and collected, no matter how fierce the teacher or how difficult the approaching exam. Since she rarely speaks of herself, it has taken us some time to value her at her real worth. We have enjoyed her comfortable pleasantness for four years, and wish' it could be for longer. Fare thee well Alys, and much happiness to you. r l JOSEPHINE SHAW Worcester Street, Bridgewater, Mass. Glee Club '24-'25g Girl Scouts '24-'25, YV. A. A.

Jo is the best all-around member of Class A. She is not only in many activities, but she excels in each of them. Ask Jo, is the first thought in the minds of her classmates when a difficulty must be faced. 10's versatility is, after four years, an ever-revealing miracle, though perhaps we shall remember her best for her dramatic genius. Jo is a loyal friend and she is graduated from Normal School with the best wishes of everyone. ELINORE FRANKLYN SPENCER 91 River Road lfVest Bridgewater Mass Glee Club '24-'27, Dancing Class '24-'25, '26-'27, A bit of the lover of colors, the possessor of charm, then an artist and a student, with the whimsicality of one and the perseverance of the other were all stirred in-and the result was Spence. Per- haps a bit of the elf was added, else how could she dance so gracefully? Spence is the designer of our new school ring, and in the harmony of its lines is evidenced her artistic gift plus patience to work for perfection. Many Normalites will remember her for this and for her ever-ready hospitality. M-m-ml What good dog-roasts we had by the fireplace in her old Colonial home. Remember? i J T.,, ...Y 24 T.

CLASSES VIVIENNE AGNES PICKETT 421 High Street, Bridgewater, Mass. W. A. A. '26-'27, Vivienne is one ofthe quietest members of the class, as well as one of the most conscientious. Her demure steadiness goes far toward balancing the giddiness of her classmates. May your womanliness carry you as far, Vivienne, in the fu- ture, as it has in the esteem of your class.

Mable up- held the honor of Class A by miraculously putting over the Christmas Card Project. She always enjoyed great argu- mentative discourses, especially in sociology. Her motto? Always be late, then you don't have to wait for things to begin! 50 Towerhill street, Lawrence, Mass W A. A.

CLASSES HELENA LAWTGN STANLEY 17 Reynolds Street, New Bedford, Mass. VV. A. A. '24-'25g Bowling '25-'26g Open House Committee, '26g Class C Social Committee. Helena decided last fall that an extra year of training was more to be desired than entrance into the profession, so she came back to join Class A. Wie admire Helena for her calm poise and self-possession. Some of us went beyond her cool little air of reserve and discovered a girl who likes books, who talks in a slow, slurred voice, and has dreams in her eyes. EDITH ALICE TURNER MARY KATHERINE TOOMEY 43 Fremont Street, Bridgewater, Mass. French Club '26-'28g Mary is one of the reasons why Class A is noted for its ability. She is a good sport and a worthy friend as well as a student. Wfhenever her maps and charts are displayed they arouse envy and marvel among less-gifted people. If cleverness and patience are factors of success, Mary will be fortunate in whatever she undertakes. ' 600 North Street Brldgewater Mass Math. Club '27-'28. In one field of science Edith has outstripped all puny competitors. Ask Mr. Durgin. This math-shark has depended on her proficiency in that difficult and myster- ious subject to win her fame. Now that there is no more to learn in Normal School, Edith's ambition leads her forth to challenge the greatest names of the mathematical pro- fession. ...Q 25 5...
