16 THE DURFEE RECORD Albert Foster Munroe :10 without Albert. He. is the source of many marvelnus ideas, sometimes they materialize, other times they do not. From experience we have learned that he is rather too optimistic. A5 Editor in Chief of the Premier he has made himself famous. He is a typical newspaper man with a generous supply of nerve. This faculty he Emmetimes used in sehenl hours, engaging in discussions which often amused his listeners. At the Highland School, Alllert was nnletl for ahsem-mindedness and even now he has lapses Of his. old delinquency. He has formed Vigor- 011:; plans for the future. After saying a fond fare- well to l'JLlrfee he intends to take. up jmlrnalism at 801119, college, and 0110 of these rlays we expect him to win high literary honors. Then when the time is ripe, he will shoulder his park and hike for Suulh America where he will doubtless stir up some harlly governed country and make hinmelf President. We will never he surprised at anything i lAl' l undertakes. IT would seem almost impossible for Durfee to HRH Winthrop Sanford Warren LNESOME YVinnie Vilarren, although short never fails to he noticed. He graduated from the Highland school in july 1908 with high honors. 1CVhen he entered I'luriee the follow- ing September we expected him to continue his good work. Expectations don't always material- ize. He excels in English because it eemes natural l0 him but to nlher subjects he devotes but little time, and when a fellow possesses brains they are there to be used. He filled the position of Presi- dent of the Forum with great ability and is an excellent. speaker. He is the unly candidate in the Class for coming anywhere near being a human dictionary. linwling is a great pastime for Win and lately he has cultivated a liking for certain young ladies in the class. He is undecided as. to what he will do next year. XVe hope he Will make good use of his: ability in English and become suc- eesaaful as an essayist.
