Twelve] THE LEDGER Class Song Lucille Dodson (To tune of Bygones ) Though we leave these halls on the morrow, Though «-e journe ' forth on our way, Still we view the parting with sorrow; Through the night we dread the day. Our treasure of school days is sunny gold That ' s shot with wild beauty. Th e jewels of our dead dreams hold ; The incense of sadness weaves gently through This priceless gift, dear Commerce, we have from you. Life is as a stream swiftly flowing. While we linger here on the shore; Down its misty waves we ' ll be going. But back we turn to you once more. To the lessons you ' ve taught us, dear Commerce High, Ambition and progress. The will to see our bright dreams die; To honor your friendship we ' ll always strive, Accept the love and homage of June twenty-five.

THE LEDGER [Elevt HAROLD PARMELE His thoughts are like deep rivers compared to the babbling brooks of others. We wonder if he acquired his vocabulary through reading; if so, hand us a library. Ask him a question on building a bug and see if y ou can trip him. BURDETT ANGEL Burdett boasts of having been our chief slip collector. She has served as a faithful sister in the Alpha and Gamma societies. Her attendance at football games has been excellent. (Probably there ' s an excellent reason.) She must he able to type as fast as she can talk, for she has won certificates and an Underwood pin to prove it. HARRIET HAY Harriet is one of our bright girls whom we can de- pend on. She is very quiet. One would not know that there was such a girl if it weren ' t for her brilliancy and her very friendly manner. She will make a mark in the business world. VICTOR FRANCONE Studious! Not he! He has a life to live, and that life isn ' t a sad one. Band practice provides an outlet for some of his surplus energy. We won ' t forget him as the Arab in the vaudeville. EUNICE PARTLOW Eunice reminds us of the pale, fragile lily because she is so quiet, so sweet, so unassuming, so dignified, and so modest in all her talk and ways. She is the one we like to have near when we are in trouble, for she seems to be a friend to whom we may cling. We will surely feel like lost lambs after Eunice leaves. MAXWELL ALLARA There is an old saying, If the brains do not work, the body must, but Max has been active not only in baseball and football but also in orchestra and vaude- ville. Max seems to have a habit of being manager of everything and we wonder what he will be manag- ing ten years from now. WERNER RAZ Werner Is one of those few who always do what they say when they say, to the best of their ability. His bright- ness outshines many stars and this is more remarkable since it is true he has been in America only a few years. Switzerland was his native home. FANNIE COOPER Fannie is our tiny, smiling, likeable, little lady. She is just a good pal to everyone. A word of cheer is the gift she bestows upon us all. What could be better in the World of Knocks? MABLE TATE Mable is known to everybody. Whenever help is needed, everyone goes to Mable. She does not wait to be asked either; she offers her help if she thinks it is needed. In addition to being a helper, she is a friend. The old saying, A friend in need is a friend indeed, suits Mable in everv way. Els ELSIE McNAIR is of the {[uiet, reserved nature of the wise per- son who would rather listen to the words of others than talk idly herself. Her school work shows that she finds a real joy in studying. She is our poet that came to us from Franklin. MARCELLES BEAMAN Marcelles is a sunny blond. She went gaily to several high schools before casting her luck with Commerce. She was always surrounded by a host of friends. We found her a quiet, ambitious girl with no fear of an un- successful career. JULIA JOHNSON From the very first Julia impressed us as a good scholar. But she ' s a jolly good fellow for all o ' that. Her pleasant smile has been an inspiration to more than one of us. We ' ll surely miss you, Julia. HELEN BUDLONG Helen first impressed us with her dependability and willingness to work. These two qualities made her the president of the Beta Sorosis. We all appreciate what she has done for that organization. Very often we see Helen industriously working in the office. We sincerely hope that she will be as busy when she leaves school. MARGARET SCHULTENS Monty is a quiet, ambitious girl. She is not lack- ing in spirit, either. She has proven it by being a strong rooter at all the games. Margaret is well liked by her school mates and teachers. Success is sure to be hers. RUTH CRANE If you want a typical Commerconian take Ruth. She decided Commerce was the school for her and she has stood by it for four years. She has helped to make other girls at Commerce happier by doing her bit as an Alpha sister. HELEN MYERS Helen ' s bookkeeping ability caused her to be elected class treasurer. She has certainly handled our financial affairs with an assurance of manner that made us feel happy that she was in charge of things. Perhaps we will see Helen as a great woman banker in our city in the days to come. FRANCES ROSENFELD Fanny is our chubby pal. Her frankness and good fellowship have won her many friends. There is nothing shy about Frances, folks. Her grades are satisfactory. Her presence is always welcomed by her fellow students. We are parting with a jolly good friend. MELBA MOE Earnest, thoughtful, and honest — those are only a few of Melba ' s wonderful traits. She is quiet, saying nothing except when she has something worth while to say. Melba could come and go without being noticed if it were not for her many delightful ways. She will make a wonderful secretary for some man who is a lover of peace. HAROLD PETKE Harold is quiet. He is serious minded, studious, earn- est, and always ready to help and do the best he can for everybody. Never does a chance go by but that Harold accepts it. His gentlemanly characteristics are always being shown to good advantage. He is our future ex- ecutiv e. CLIFFORD ENGLE Clifford is one of those people who is commonly known as a walking dictionary. His intelligent capacity for work has earned him a prominent place among us. His hearty handclasp and ready smile will be greatly missed. ALEXANDER JUE For four years Alex has roamed the halls; now we hate to see him leave. Fun and wisdom are always ap- preciated and he is always ready at the right time with his bit. And who shall replace our champion penman?
