Yes. of course you know it but we have to start some how! “Vic’s” taking a general course and her favorite study is Applied Design. You see, she leans toward art. I don’t mean she doesn't stand up straight, hut she has artistic abilities. That’s why she’s going to the Rhode Island School of Design next year. Although she’s a loyal member of the Athletic Association she misses some of the games because she is a movie fan. Startling, if true, and she says it’s true! and who can blame her? Of course it’s interesting to see Rudolph Valentino in a bull fight and Harold Gildae in a basketball game, but they’re different types, rather. “Vic” has lived up to her motto so well that when she leaves P. H. S. she’ll have a regular cheering section to wish her success and happiness. And we'll be in it, too! CLIFFORD EDWARDS (“Cliff ) Motto: “ you re feeling kinda blue, just whistle.” hockey (1) Voila! the one and only golfer of the Class of 25. When “Cliff ’ says his favorite sport is golf, he says beaucoup. As soon as the 3:05 bell rings, “Cliff is seen dashing through the door on his way to the links. He also confesses that he likes hunting and fishing, but due to his mania for golf, he has only a passing acquaintance with these other pastimes. On Sunday evenings “Cliff finds time to visit a certain Senior who lives near the school, and from all appearances it seems pretty serious. “Cliff’s” favorite study is English, and Miss Rowe will bear out the fact that he is a “shark in it. Oh! yes, “Cliff also likes dancing and he is always a familiar figure at the school socials. “Cliff's” future is in the golfing world, and in a few years we hope to see him one of the leading golfers of the country. FREEDA EISENBERC (“Farina,” “Fritzie”) Motto: “Let us. then. be up and doing” CLEANER (4), RECORDANDA (4), HONOR SOCIETY Freeda is another one of our shining stars. It must not be inferred from this, however, that she is a so-called “grind.” She is a loyal supporter of all the school activities, and can always be seen at a football or basketball game making herself hoarse, shouting for her team. Freeda is also one of the hardest working members of our Gleaner Board, and has contributed greatly to that most popular and amusing department known as “The Locals.” Freeda and Evelyn are great friends and can almost always be seen together. Freeda is undecided as to her future plans, but there is no doubt in our minds but that she will come out on top in whatever she undertakes. MARGARET CATHERINE ERSKINE (“Peggy,” “Muzzie”) Motto: “Laugh if of}.” We don't have to wonder that “Peggy” is popular. Anyone with her sunny disposition is bound to be the center of attraction wherever she goes. We all love to be happy, and “Peg” surely does her best to make us so. That’s what makes her motto so appropriate. “Peggy” intends to enter Normal School next year, and in a few years we may see her trying to manage a group of unruly youngsters. We can just imagine the pupils bringing apples and flowers to her every morning. We’d better be careful or some of our present seniors may be trying to go through school again—the attraction certainly will be great enough!

1925 Pawtucket High School 17 JAMES BUCHANAN DOW (“Jimmy” “Scotty,” “Buck”) Motto: “If you cant win. make the fellow ahead break the record.” GLEE CLUB (4), DRAMATICS (3) (4), ORCHESTRA (3) (4) “Roamin’ in the Gloamin’ with a lassie by nia side.” Who’s that, Harry Lauder? No! That’s “Scotty” Dow! and isn’t he right there when it comes to mimicking Sir Harry himself? “Jimmy” has taken parts in many plays and proved himself quite an actor. No douht when you have seen him he has been causing someone to laugh with a witty expression or a joke. He is also a member of our celebrated orchestra, and can certainly play a fiddle. He is undecided as to his future plans, but wants to go either to some technical school or Rhode Island School of Design. The wishes of all your classmates go with you, “Jim,” for success in the future. LILLIAN MARGARET DOW Motto: “What's the use of worrying?” CLEE CLUB (4), HONOR SOCIETY Behold our Lillian with her hair bobbed again! While we liked it before we’ll have to admit we like it better bobbed. Lillian seems quiet to those who do not know her, but her intimate friends say that she is most assuredly not. Lillian started her freshman year with a brilliant record and has kept it throughout her high school career. As a result, she is a member of the Rhode Island Honor Society. Lillian declares that her favorite study is French, and we don’t wonder when we see her marks. Next year she intends to go to some prep school, probably Dean, before entering college. Wherever she goes the best w ishes of the class of ’25 go with her. DOROTHY KOERNER DRAPER (“Dot”) Motto: “So big.” DRAMATICS (4) A petite figure with golden curls and the gayest of grey-blue eyes, surrounded by a host of admires of the other sex—who is it? Who could it be but “Dot”? “Dot” is one of the most popular girls in the class of ’25. She enjoys herself thoroughly in all of her classes, although we have found out that she enjoys herself most in French, nest ce pas. Dot?” She doesn't stop at enjoying herself, though. All of those who sawr Daddy-Long-Legs know that “Dot” can surely give others a good time by her acting in Dramatic Society productions. Next year she expects to attend Lasell Academy, and later to continue her studies at Johns Hopkins. DELPHIS JOSEPH DUPUIS (“Duke,” Del”) Motto: “Think for yourself—it won’t hurt.” “Duke” is another one of our practical students. No frivolities during w'orking hours for him. If “Del” is working on an architectural drawing or a trig problem he wants to work and not be distracted. But then there is the other side. If “Del” is playing, he plays hard and puts his whole heart into whatever he’s doing. “Del is one to follow a motto like the one he has chosen. He is one of the foremost architectural drawing pupils, and will eventually take up this line of work. He is planning to enter the University of Pennsylvania in the fall.

Wouldn't that get your goat, though, being slapped in the face by an elastic coming from goodness knows where? But the culprit is discovered, and all take warning. Samuel is also a newspaper fiend. The last desk in 29 is always arrayed with the morning edition of the Providence Journal or some such paper, and undoubtedly the seeker will discover a hidden stack of newspapers within the desk. But Samuel doesn't spend all his time indoors, for his hobby is baseball. His favorite study is French—he says he means the language, but we shouldn't lie at all surprised if he really means the mademoiselles. “Appearances are deceiving,” and although “Sam” looks quiet—well, we are not prepared to say. Next year Samuel is going to Rhode Island State College, where he will have to do more reading out of text books and less out of newspapers. WILSON EVANS (“Parson,” “Bill”) Motto: “Better late than never” REVISORY COMMITTEE OF A. A. (4), BUSINESS MANAGER “BELIEVE ME XANTIPPE” (3), “THE CHAMPION” (4), ASSISTANT BUSINESS MANAGER “mice and men” (3), “daddy long-legs” (4), “senen chances” (4), GLEE CLUB (4), ASSISTANT BUSINESS MANAGER GLEANER (3), BUSINESS MANAGER CLEANER (4), BUSINESS MANAGER RECORD-ANDA (4), COLONIAL DAMES ESSAY PRIZE (4), CHEMISTRY TEAM (4), HONOR SOCIETY Don’t rush, folks—plenty of time! Step right this way and meet the “Parson,” the business brains of P. H. S. My, what burdens and responsibilities for such young shoulders! “Bill” certainly has worked his way through High. Socially he is as wide-awake as along business lines, and it takes very little time to discover that he is an all-around good sport. Wanted—a crossword expert to solve the perplexing puzzle: How is P. H. S. possibly going to get along without Evans? Brown, you don’t realize how fortunate you’re going to be next year. You’ll certainly appreciate our contribution. MILDRED EVELYN FAIRBANKS (“Millie”) Motto: “The only uay to have a friend is to be one” We call this a one hundred per cent, simon pure, A number one motto. A girl that starts out in life with that slogan, ought surely to reap a harvest of friends. Judging by the start “Millie” has already made, she will have many. Give “Millie” a book and a cozy nook, and she counts the world well lost. Her next year’s plans are indefinite, hut in whatever she undertakes, we hope she will be successful.
