College: Gorham Normal or Leland Powers. Florence can read a geometry proposition with as much feeling as most of us could put into H-amlet's soliloquies-we beg your pardon, Florence, with much more feeling than we could put into Hamlet's soliloquies. What we want to know is this: What are you going to Gorham Normal School for? We thought you wanted to read, not teach reading. MARIE CAMPBELL Course : General Hobby: Driving the car. Ambition: To be a stenographer. Marie was once a Bangor girl before she joined our ranks: Whoever turned her steps this way deserves our hearty thanks.

May we present Miss Brown-future senator from Maine. .Although she came here from Lubec only a year ago, she has already impressed us with her calm, oratorical manner. When she gets up in Public Speaking and calmly saunters down the aisle to deliver her carefully worded speeches, we croueh tremblingly in our seats, praying for the bell to ring, before We have to get up and suffer by comparison. FLORENCE L. BROWN Flossie Course 1 College Activities: Student Service 35 French Play 4. College : Brown University. Florence is quite a demure young lady and to the uninitiated might seem bashful. But she is quite a fast worker when she gets started and can use those large, dark eyes of hers with wonderful effect-as a cer- tain Bates freshman can testify. How about it, Florence? We wish you the best of luck wherever you may go. PRISCILLA L. BROWN Til Brownie Course: College Activities: Yearbook 43 French Play 45 Student Service 4. Ambition: To be a graduate of Forsyth's Dental School. Pastime: Talking. When Til first came up here from Bangor, someone asked, Who is the 'quiet' little girl with the big smile? Now, we admit the smile, but when it comes to quietness-well, ask most anyone who knows her. She's been skipping around all 'winter, and she never pretended to be a staid and dignified senior, anyhow. And when she opens her dental officw- One at a time, please! HARRY W.

You have lots of pep, and your spirits are brightg All this goes quite well with a young man named White.

QKQ DEERING HIGH SCHOOL GRACE GWENDOLYN CI-IARKE Course: Commercial The -accompanying photograph shows to you a very demure miss. Small in stature, bright, sunny nature, and business-like in appearance, describes our Gracie. She has never .starred in athletics, nor is she our valedictorian, but she is a very promising private secretary for some- one who wants an apt and thorough young lady. If you ever wish to get in touch with Grace, just ring Lenore up on the phone. They're always together , In all kinds of weather. GLADYS CHIPMAN C11iPP3f Guy Course: General Activities: Art Club 35 Yearbook 4. I Hobby: Camping. Ambition: To play the piano just a little bit. Silence is Golden. Chippy is rather quiet, so that unobserving people don't see much of her as she really is, but to us she is of more than sterling worth. If you go to Windham this summer, take a peek at her and Scribby in the middle of the dance. We bet you can't resist the temptation. Chippy's thinking of taking a P. G., but we are still doubtful. Must be she has other plans! ' MARION DOROTHY CLARK C'la1'kie Course: General Activities: Glee Club 2, 3: Washington Club 4. Hobby: Driving a car. Ambition: To be a successful teacher.

She got away with it, too: that is, if you overlook a few minor injuries, such as that black eye. Peach, wasn't it? Quite worthy of the girl. In her day she's walked to school with the greater part ot D. S.'s male population. In fact, she's quite the living example of Virg1l's imortal statement, Varium et mutabile semper iemin-a. DORIS E. COBB Dot Course: Commercial Activities: Glee Club 33 Basketball 4: Yearbook Board 4. Hobby: Outdoor sports. Ambition: To become either wealthy or wise. Behold a Dot that isn't round Cand we're afraid, never will beb. It doesn't seem to make any difference how much candy she eats or how late she sleeps in the morning: she wears off all the newly-acquired avoirdupois playing the part of peppy little center on the basketball team.
