OUR 1919 ANNUAL MARGARET HEBDEN “Peg” Peg entered C. H. S. in 1915 from the Norwood Grammar School. Peg’s .-:iOst illustrious activities have been along the line of girls’ athletics. She has made a very capable and interested manager of the girls' basketball team for the years 1918-19. And now for a secret! Although she was very loyal to the team of which she was manager. Peg was almost as much interested in boys’ basketball and was a regular attendant at the games. Nor did this active girl limit herself to athletics. She was elected president of the Social Service Society in her Senior year and performed her duties in this capacity with great success. Margaret is an ardent follower of terpsichorc and belongs to a group of our classmates, which has often delighted us with rhythmical I erformances. A jolly good sport is Peg and thoroughly dependable, and these qualities will doubtless secure her success in the future. •JM EVA ELIZABETH HOFFECKER Hoffy, Eve Eva entered Chester High School from Windsor Grammar School in the fall of 1915. Like other frightened Presides, she was always very shy. In :spite of this her high school career was very successful. “Eve” always knows her lessons and is ever ready to help her classmates in their difficulties. Every one has noticed Eve's” rosy complexion with curiosity, but only her most confidential friends know the reason. If one could see her in the study hall, when her worldly companions are discussing their experiences, his curiosity would be satisfied as to what kind of cosmetics Eve” uses. 29

OUR 1919 ANNUAL HELEN BEGGS HAMILTON Cap September, 1915, found Helen embarking upon a distinguished career in Chester High. She has upheld her reputation in athletic activities, which she established at Larkin Grammar School and is generally recognized as a real sport. She is president of the girls basketball team. Helen is very fond of dancing, and who wouldn’t be if he could match her at this graceful art. Sad to say, many broken hearts have been left unhealed by this popular young lady; but such is life. We advise the poor disheartened ones to take courage and try again. If you hear a merry laugh issuing from the girls locker room, you will know that it is happy Helen. SADIE GERTRUDE HARRIS Sis” Shakespeare deserves praise, Milton also, and so does Sadie. She entered Chester High in 1913. the same year that she left John A. Watts School. Although she looked quite healthy, Sadie was taken ill, and consequently her school work was delayed considerably. But Sadie learned that if you don’t succeed at first, try, try again, and along with her perseverence Sadie also has a disposition that makes any one who meets her like her. And if you don’t believe Sadie’s got a good disposition you just notice her size and tell me what person her size could be grouchy? Then if you’re not satisfied, just ask John about it. 28

She is fast learning that music hath charms to soothe the savage breast,” at the same time enjoying the company of one of the school’s talented musicians. Her favorite classical selection is. True Love Never Runs Smooth. of which she has had much experience. Not only- music interests Mary, but Dry Land Sailors are her delight; especially those from California. She is inclined to be sedate and silent, yet that doesn’t matter, for Mary is an expert in talking with her eyes. CHARLES J. HOUSTON “Chass “Chass entered in 1915 from Dewey Grammar School and started his career by saying that wartless pickles was a foolish idea started by George III.
