Alma Mater, P. H. S., We say fare-well tonight, For four long years you’ve harbored us. And led our steps aright; Before us striving ever on. You’ve placed your ideals true, We’ll follow them along life’s way And honor bring to you. II. Alma Mater, P. H. S., Thv portals open wide; Thy guiding hand hast brought us far. We may longer bide.

He is quiet and well behaved except during the lunch period. His favorite subject is History in which he has accomplished much. Merrill intends to enter Providence College. He expects to take up the medical profession. Well, here’s luck, “Admiral,” and some day we hope to hear from you again. RAYMOND WALDEMAR ANDERSON (“Andy,” “Swede”) Motto: “He that cannot obey cannot command.” TREASURER SCIENCE CLUB (4), CLEE CLUB (3) Here we have “Ray” Anderson, our handsome sheik.” Although “Andy” is of the quiet type, he has become prominent in school activities. Keenly interested in science, “Ray” was honored with the office of treasurer of the Science Club. On the subject of radio he is a “whizz” and can give out more information than a text-book. For that matter, he is well up in all of his studies. “Andy sang with the glee club last vear, and we must admit, did more than his share. The Rhode Island School of Design is to be honored with his presence next year. Best wishes! WALTER WILLIAM ANDERSON (“Andy”) Motto: “Be yourself.” track (4) Bang! What’s that? Smoke! Oh, that’s “Andy” tearing over the boards in his favorite 50-yard dash. Another medal we suppose. “Andy” is certainly a speedy boy. You wouldn't think so if you saw him in Room 10. He says history is his favorite study and judging from his marks, it must lie true. “Andy” intends to go to R. I. State College next year and we know he will be one of their star dash men. We send him our best wishes. ARTEMISE GERTRUDE ANDERTON (“Art”) Motto: “Do your best, then try to do better.” Artemise is one of our very quiet girls but she is greatly liked by all of her friends. Outside of school when she is not studying, she spends much of her time playing the violin and is quite an accomplished player. She is one of the business type and intends to be a stenographer or bookkeeper after leaving high school. We are sure that she is worthy of a fine position and we certainly wish her great success.
