iM mnrabtlta A sweet attractive kind of grace EMILY AUGUSTA BOND “Em” College Course French Club 4; Honorary Member of Women’s Club Emily’s first year of high school was spent at Lancaster High, and though we know little of her work there, we are certain that it was of the highest type. “Em” first came into our midst when we were Sophomores. “Do you know who the new girl with the long l air is?” we would ask each other. But how dif- ferent now. We all know of Emily’s scholastic ability, and long hair is no longer a distinguishing mark. Emily is one of the shining lights of our class and is al- ways willing to help the rest of us who are not blessed with such intelligence. In her Senior year, she attended the meetings and entertainments of the Women’s Club as one of the two guests chosen annually from the graduating class by that organization. She also took active part on the Social Committee of the French Club and helped to furnish some very pleasing entertainments for the Club. “Em” plans to enter Brown University in the Fall. We feel positive that here she will do credit to herself and to our school, will make many friends, and will be one of the highest in her class. Your many friends in the Class of ’29 will be watching your work, Emily, and hoping for your great success. Best of luck in your future career! 24

iMinmmihtUa Little, ])ut — oh my! ! MARY TERESA BOISONEAU “Bois” “Biizzic Normal Course Minstrel Show 2, 3; A. A. 3, 4; Science Club 2; Glee Club 1, 2, 3; Hiking Club 2; History Circle 4 Here is Mary — small of stature but big of heart. Mary generally likes to overrule the teachers’ wishes to “be quiet’’ — espec- ially during study periods, and may often be seen walking through the corridors in search of new study rooms, and yet “Bois” never seems to tire of school. It seems to make no difference to her whether it is morning or afternoon session that she attends. We wonder why? Mary likes to go to all the socials, and we can’t blame her, for she certainly has a good time and receives a lot of attention from the “stronger sex” at all of them. “Buzzie” is well liked by her classmates and her supply of “wisecracks makes everyone admire her wit, and if there is any fun around yon may be sure that she is in on it. Mary regularly attends all the school games, and she adds not a little to the cheering for the school teams. “Bois” knows her English and may often be seen devouring great volumes ( f myths. She doesn’t seem to believe in letting pleasure interfere with work, how- ever, because she may be seen clerking in some of our local stores. Mary intends to grace a corner of some office in the future and we all wish her the best of hick in whatever niche she may find herself. 1929 23

iMfmnrahtUa Music like whispering spirits charms the air OLIVE ELOIS BOWEN “Ollie” “Giggles” Honorary Member of Clinton Historical Society; History Club; Orchestra 2, 3, 4 Normal Course In our sophomore year a new member joined our ranks. “Ollie,” as she is best known, came to us from Berlin. With her ever ready smile it did not take her long to make friends with everyone. Olive is always ready and willing to help anyone in time of trouble. She al- ways finds time to pass a joke along and see the witty side of life. We could al- ways hear Olive giggle above everyone else in all her classes. “Ollie” was always among the list of testimonial pupils. Perhaps she owes her clearness of thought to her cold ride in the morning from Berlin. She was acclaimed one of the honorary members of the Clinton Historical Society. “Giggles” was also in our High School Orchestra and she sure wields a wicked bow. Olive has been the envy of all the girls with her frat pin. Of course we have no idea whom it belongs to (?). We are told that Olive likes to dance very much and always attends the dances in Berlin. There may be a special reason for this but we can not judge. Olive intends to go to Normal School and the class of ’29 wishes her all the success in the world. We can all picture her teaching the A, B, C’s. Farewell, Olive, and best of luck from ’29. 1329 25
