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.

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!

Have you ever seen her cross or worried? If she has any troubles she certainly doesn’t burden the next fellow with them. “Frank” looks shy, but she really isn’t. Meet her in a crowd and find out how jolly and amusing she can be. “Ev” has thoroughly enjoyed her school year, either arriving late, being excused, or not showing up at all. No wonder she has chosen for her motto: “A new day is a new opportunity.” Her favorite pastime is dancing, at which she is no mean stepper. American history pleases her a good deal, hut then who does not enjoy Miss Osborn’s interesting class? Frances positively loves Richard Harding Davis—as an author. Her plans for next year are not yet definite, but whatever she does we extend to her our best wishes for success. MAX FISHMAN (“Maxsy”) Motto: Do it now and be done with it.” “Maxsy” lives up to his motto. If he has some typewriting to do he just sits down and makes the keys talk. Talk about Paderewski making sweet music on a baby grand, just step into the typewriting class and listen to “Maxsy” and you’ll say he has “Pad” crying for help. “Max” is, without doubt, the champion excuse maker of P. H. S. His house burned down, or his dog was sick, or his car was derailed—always a good one and never the same one twice. “Maxsy” trips the light fantastic occasionally, and he sure can step. Although “Max” is not going to college next year we know that he will become a leader in the line of cleical work which is his favorite study. MARGARET ELIZABETH FITZPATRICK (“Peggy”) Motto: “A still tongue makes a wise head.” Who is that blonde who goes rushing through the halls on errands from the office? Why “Peggy” Fitzpatrick of course. Who else could it be? “Peggy” is one of those quiet persons who are seen most of the time and not heard. But you know what the old saying is: “Still water runs deep.” Her favorite pastime is dancing, and when not enjoying herself in this manner she can be found engrossed in a novel by Ethel M. Dell. Next year she is planning to enter her business career as a stenographer, probably to some important business man, and since shorthand was her pet study in High School we are quite certain she will succeed. We wish you the best of luck, “Peggy.” LOUIS DOUGLAS FLEMING (“Louie”) Motto: “Look before you leap.” A rather small, auburn-haired chap with light blue eyes and a smile that stretches from ear to ear, and there you have him! That’s Louis all right, but that isn’t all there is to him—not by a long shot. Louis is one of Mr. Nase’s right-hand men when it comes to putting across some gym work. Yes sir, something tells us he’s going to lie a second Doug Fairbanks when he finishes a few more fencing lessons. Louis spends a good deal of his spare time in sports of one kind or another, but he isn't too busy to read Zane Grey every now and then. Mathematics is his favorite subject, and he will return to P. H. S. next year where he will pursue it further.
