“ I Those yesterdays look backward with a smile ” MURIEL CLARK “Susie” Commercial Course Muriel, 1910’s most fascinating blonde, is one of the best liked girls of the class. That combination of miscmevous eyes and ready smile finds a way to everyone’s heart. For pure nerve and will power Muriel can’t be beat. We rather think she’s inclined to be one of these “militant suffra- gettes.” But at any rate, looking into the future we can hardly see “Susie” as President of a Spinster Club or a member of an “Anti Male” organization. By that time, to continue in our role of the prophet, she will be “picketing” some lucky fellow’s heart and home. As to her immediate future, Muriel intends to complete her education in some Business College and we of 192 0 can see only success and happiness in her future years. 23

DOROTHY W. OARRUTH “Dada” “Dot” “Dimples” “Bobby” “Dearie” College Course Class Book Staff; Orchestra; Student Staff Dorothy Whitney Carruth is 192 0’s most dashing, popular brunette. Her daring has carried her through pranks too numer- ous to mention, and of a character that would make us weak kneed. We have an inkling that she vamps her supressors into submission, for she is always let off easy. Between skipping classes, bluffing, and vamping all her male friends, Dorothy cer- tainly leads a gay life. She tickles the ivories with great skill and dances divinely which is illustrated by the large circle of knights errant over whom she holds sway. Her talent as an entertainer is ack- nowledged far and wide. If Dot is going to a party, we know a good time is assured. In her first year, “Dada” became famous with the teachers for at that time she was not quite — well, so frivilous. Their whole-hearted assistance during her many mischievous episodes of her High School career confirms the old saying, that “first im- pressions are lasting.” But underneath all her frivolty Dot has an honest, conscientious, kind and generous heart which wins and holds for her the love of those with whom she comes in con- tact. And these characteristics, together with her fearlessness, will lead her, we are sure, to the top o fthe ladder. May Fate decree her climb to be as pleasant and carefree as her stay at High School. 22

U A peace above all earthly dignities , a still and quiet conscience ” i MARY COLLINS “Mae” “Colly” Commercial Course Mary blew in from Bolton one hot, sultry day in Freshman year and has been with us ever since. Sometimes we are apt to forget her presence, for Mae is one of the quiet members of the class. Her one hobby is writing notes to “Freshies” and we wonder at her cleverness in passing them. Outside of school Mary is considered “some girl” and is always ready for a good time. She generally has them. How the girls enjoy her romantic stories of “Moonlight Nights on the Bolton Road.” Always conscientious in her work, and always willing to help a classmate with that “Trial Balance” or “Statements,” Mary has gained a great many friends among the stucent body. Business College is Mary’s destination and the best wishes of 1920 go with her. 24
