puny TCX eeecicscaceuces= ! pt Have you ever been a member of one of her Latin classes? If not, your edu- cation is incomplete, for certainly there is no experience quite like it. Her lectures are as original as her vocabulary is picturesque and expressive. Besides being amusing, they are extraordinarily effective. : Miss Driscoll’s charm of personality has taken a place in our hearts which will ever remain as a memory to us of her who was our sincere sympathizer, our true friend. MISS ELIZABETH M. DRISCOLL DEAN OF SOPHOMORE GTRLS Among the faculty, there is one woman who, as soon as we entered School, became for us a sort of idol, a kind of goddess. She seemed rather remote, but infinitely admirable. She reassured bewildered parents and man- aged rebellious students efficiently. Somehow she seemed to know each pupil’s activities, a characteristic which added a personal touch to her confer- ences. ‘There could be no finer character to mold the freshman girls than that of Miss Russell. | MISS HILDA RUSSELL as ) DEAN OF FRESHMAN GIRLS OF ; Page 14

Who could be more suitable to smooth over or dissolve the many troubles of a throng of Senior girls? Somehow her unfailing courtesy “and friendly charm make momentary difficulties seem petty and small. Her poise is enviable; gen- tleness is her greatest asset. Besides such qualities, Miss McElroy has an unexcelled facility for making her Eng- lish classes enjoyable. To write themes for her is a pleasure, because we enjoy the individual comments ever forth- coming from her fertile mind. MISS ETHEL G. McELROY DEAN OF SENIOR GIRLS 7 Her cheery smile was a bright spot in our Junior Year. Before we had any dealings with her concerning tardiness or other unpleasant affairs, we felt that she would be not foo severe; that while she would exact the required penalty, she would do it in a manner which we could not resent. And so it proved to be. She has the delightful faculty of becoming intimate with her pupils. She, too, is among the long list’ of friends whom we have made since enter- ing High School. ee 7 MISS MARY E. MURRAY DEAN oF JUNIOR GIRLS Page 13

CHESTER BLISS MASTER As one learns to know Mr. Cain one finds that he is not the av erage sort; he is quick witted, intelligent, capable of giving sound advice, and possesses a good sense of humor. Those who have had dealings with him at School realize that they have come in contact with a man of sound principles. He is always ready to give advice to those who need it. Those who deserve his praise attain it, and those who merit punishment receive it from him. A man of mighty thoughts, an expo- nent of world politics, a greatly liked mas- ter, that is Mr. Bliss. His comprehension of history, and of current events he has transmitted to us by most lucid exposi- tions. In his dealings with indifferent students he displays keenness of insight. His adroitness at character reading is an- other of his many endowments. Above all else, though, we appreciated his un- pretentious manner, which caused us to have the utmost confidence in him. MR. HeADMASTER’S ASSISTANT GEORGE H. CAIN Page 15
