It looms up greater than the highest mountain. It is the watchword of our national life, especially so in the last few years. It is a word that greets us as we have entered our class rooms for the last four, short, but most enjoyable and beneficial years. It is the word that means the success of our future which now, as never before, comes before us like a gigantic building, and appears as broad as the most extensive prairie. It is a word that is used in the Christian life, in fact, no word could be applied to so many walks of life as that great essential to the human race. Preparedness!! Are we prepared for the great battle of life? Are our minds prepared for the stress, the burdens, the trials, the temptations, and the thousands of other things that year after year send men to their ruin, and likewise send men to the heights of fame ? Are our bodies prepared for the physical strain that the great to-morrow is going to put on us ? Some of us are going to work, others are fortunate enough to further their education in higher institutions, but whatever we do, wherever we go, we must be prepared for the task. Let each member of the class of 1916, one of the best and most successful that has ever entered the classic halls of Everett High, always remember our lessons back in the Everett High School. We there prepared day after day to take the first steps toward our future, and without these first steps we shudder to think of the future. And finally, allow us to reiterate that great word and wish success and prosperity to every member of the class, always having before him the keynote to the situation, Preparedness!! Marion Henderson, of Room 21, was found to be the best poet i n the class. Her poem was considered the best out of ten other entries. She signed it “ May Be.” Good work, Marion! This is the third issue of the Echo which is the Senior year-book. The purpose of the book is to review the events of the past year and to give the Seniors a souvenir to keep. The editorial staff has worked hard and the editor appreciates the manner in which he is supported. In behalf of the class of 1916, we wish to thank all who aided the publication of this issue. Especially, thanks are to be given Miss Veazie who willingly took the time to typewrite copy for the printers. The class appreciates this service. 3 OUR PRINCIPAL % Let us all remember as we leave this school the kindly advice given to us by one who has our good at heart, our principal, Mr. Rockwood. Some¬ times we have been amiss and have deserved much more harsh treatment than we received, but Mr. Rockwood has interviewed us in his quiet and convincing way and each time we have left his presence we have made new determinations and have made up our mind to do the best that we can. Let us recall his advice so often repeated but always useful: “If you do the best you can, nothing more can be expected.” OUR TEACHERS Perhaps we realize as never before the great amount of patience our teachers have had with us. We little value the difficulties they have under¬ gone. Day after day they have labored, like our principal, for the best in¬ terests of those under their instruction. In behalf of the class of 1916 we wish to extend our thanks and appre¬ ciation for the interest they have taken in us, and the patience they have had with us in these last four years. MISS ENGLISH CLUB SPEAKS HER FIRST PIECE I’m only just a little “kid,” ’most scared to say a word, ’cause Grandma says, and ’course she knows, “Kids” should be seen, not heard.” Oh, let me see, was that the word? “Children,” I think she said. I guess if I said “kids” to her, she’d make me go to bed. Somebody says “precocious,” an’ they’s talking about me. I s’pose it is ridici’lus, ’cause I’m not quite two, you see. I’ve got some nice big brothers, an’ a great big sister, too; but clubs, societies, and such, to me, are very new. My brainy brother Philomath must wear a great big hat, ’cause he knows ’bout “fourth dimensions” and awful things like that. My older brother Lyceum, knows more than all the rest, an’ he talks lots to other folks, an’ just throws out his chest. All the family’s proud of Glee Club when she dresses up and sings, an’ goes to big church weddings, an’ warbles “love” an’ things. The night we went to theatre, I dreamed the cutest dreams, ’bout writin’ plays and acting ’em, an’ they was “reg’lar screams.” I hoped to fill the “Clarion,” and make a great book, so Lyceum, “Phil,” an’ Glee Club would want to have a look. An’ then I waked me right straight up, an’ I was only two. But maybe now I’m not so scared, I’ll make my dream come true. Marion Henderson. 4 WILBUR J. ROCKWOOD, Principal CLASS ECHOES 1916 CLASS EDITORIAL I T IS with a certain amount of regret that I, in behalf of the Class of 1916, offer these few parting remarks to the boys and girls of Everett High School. The past four years have been not only a source of great benefit in pre¬ paring and fitting us for the future, but they have also been years of keen pleasure and enjoyment, in spite of the beating hearts and frightened expres¬ sions that invariably loomed up around examination time. This last year has been remarkably successful. Through the good, steady training of Mr. Cleo O’Donnell, who to our sorrow is bidding us fare¬ well, the football squad succeeded in retaining the school-boy championship of the country, an honor which the whole school has appreciated. Our Senior Class Meetings have been thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. The humorous class papers written by the different class editors, contributed largely to the evening’s pleasure. The Girls’ Glee Club deserves special mention. Its high standard throughout the year can be traced back to the steady conscientious way in which the girls worked, under Miss Myra Marshall’s training. The club has certainly won a lot of praise and has been a great credit to the school. The Boys’ Glee Club is a new venture, organized by our singing master, Mr. Colburn. So far it has met with considerable success, and we trust that before another year has passed it will be a well established body. The night after Thanksgiving, the Senior Dance was held at Murdock’s Bungalow, in Everett. Everyone who attended voted the dance a great success and went home pleased with their evening’s fun. The Prize-Speaking Contest which took place on the evening of March 1st, was a well attended affair, Mr. Hugh Bond winning first prize for the boys and Miss Mildred Greenburg first prize for the girls. The second prize was taken by Mr. Philip Dorn, while Mr. Fred Allen succeeded in carrying off the Audience Prize. On April 11 and 12, the Seniors presented the Class Play entitled “The Girl from Upper Seven,” A lot of time and forethought was spent upon the selection of the play, but the class felt well repaid for its trouble, as both performances proved to be a tremendous success, Messrs. Leslie Sampson and Philip Crockett winning a round of applause each evening for their clever acting. The great event of the year, Field Day, is something to be looked forward to, it being scheduled for June 26, at Riverside. Seniors and friends who are lucky enough to procure tickets will be seen making a rush for cars in Everett Square, early on that morning. In preparing the day’s entertainment, the class has followed out the program used by the preceding classes, which will consist of canoeing, swim ming, dancing, and various other sports, and that 6 SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS FRANK BRADLEY President GEORGE KUMPEL Vice President PHILIP DORN Treasurer everyone who intends to be present has a grand good time is the sincere and hearty wish of the Class of 1916. As we seniors are so soon to bid a last goodbye to the Everett High School, we would like to give a word of welcome to the Juniors who are about to step into our place. We wish for them all the success, enjoyment and prosperity that has been ours, so here are three hearty cheers for the Class of 1917. Before closing, I wish to say a word regarding our esteemed Principal, Mr. Wilbur J. Rockwood, who, perhaps a trifle stem at times, has yet had the interest and welfare of his pupils deep at heart, and in the future which we are about to face, the boys and girls will oft times look back with perhaps a bit of longing to the good old days spent in the Everett High School. CLASS DAY AND GRADUATION SPEAKERS The Class Day will take place on Friday, June 23, in High School Hall. The speakers were well chosen and are as follows: Class Oration, Philip Crockett; Address of Welcome, Helen Nickerson; Class History, Rachel McQueeney and John Hanna; Class Will, Ruth Baldwin and Myron Taylor; Class Phrophecy, Hilda Kennedy and Leslie Sampson. We feel sure that in this group of orators, comedians, humorists, clairvoyants, etc., that Class Day will be the “howling” success that it usually is. The graduation takes place Tuesday, June 27, in the High School. The closing event of the Class of 1916 will be opened in the usual manner. The program will include, beside the selections of “harmony” (?) from the class and the gentle exercise of receiving the precious “sheepskins,” the Presenta¬ tion of the Class Gift by Philip Dorn, the Opening Address by Loring Creamer, and the Closing Address by Frank Bradley. The girls, we are told, (of course a boy is not expected to understand what it means, but we will take it for granted that it is something nice) will graduate in “smocks” and white skirts. The boys, having “squelched” the white flannel idea, will appear in blue serge suits and crimson and blue neckties. It might be well to give at this time the ten highest pupils in the Senior Class. These averages are for the four years: Helen Nickerson, 92.96; Susan Brodsky, 92.03; Herbert Whalen, 90.74; Helen Erickson, 90.23; Dora Weiner, 90.03; Willard Hills, 90.02; Helen Croft, 89.59; Beatrice Arratto, 89.36; George Lipkin, 88.66; Ruth Engles, 88.47. Sunday, June 25, the Baccalaureate Service will be held in the High School Hall. The Rev. R. R. Hadley, of the Universalist Church, will deliver the address. 8 fV| c 3 d u cq S1 3 o XI o 4- o X! O, CLASS DAY AND GRADUATION SPEAKERS AND CLASS DAY COMMITTEE THE FIELD DAY The long looked-for event of the year takes place on Monday, June 26. The Riverside Recreation Grounds were selected by the Class as the scene of this most glorious event of the year. The cars will leave Everett Square at 9.30 and will return at 9.30. There is one thing to remember. You are going to be away from breakfast time till bed-time, that means that you must bring along dinner and supper. With all due respect to the cafe out to the grounds don’t build your hopes on the idea of getting something to eat out there, unless papa is connected with the U. S. Mint. If you doubt the writer’s words ask P. C. of Room 21. He has a very convincing argument. Further advice cannot be given except in regard to canoes. Don’t try to play water polo, unless in bathing suits, don’t try to hold a dance, for canoes are very sensitive when it comes to that stunt. Furthermore, don’t try to change your position while in the middle of the river, for you are only like the man in Maine who read that human eyes of hypnotism were full. He went to see if it would work on an angry bull. (It wouldn’t.) The usual events of a field day will be held and prizes for the winners will be presented in the dance hall in the evening. If you want the time of your life don’t miss the Field Day. It also might be interesting to know that the total damages as far as transportation is concerned is 50 cents. All Seniors with their dues paid receive free tickets. CLASS OF 1917 Another year at Everett High School will soon pass into history, so as usual we must have a little summary of past events of our Junior Class. Our first mention is of the foremost event of the year—the Prom. The chairman of the committee was Harold Spear, and under his supervision everything concerning this affair was a great success—everything except the weather for which he cannot be held responsible. The Junior class was well represented in athletics by Hugh Bond and Fred Marshall, both of natural athletic ability as has been plainly shown in their records. Our class officers namely: Hugh Bond, President; Vertna Bray, Vice- President; Lillian Benson, Treasurer; and Grace Oram, Secretary; deserve a great deal of credit for having served their officers so faithfully, and to our president the success of the Class-Meetings is due. Just one more mention we wish to make before bidding farewell to the Seniors, and that is concerning the Monday morning entertainments, which are in charge of the Juniors. To John Alcott and Harold Spear there is no 10 CLASS PLAY CAST criticism due, for their selections, during the year, have been most enjoyable to everyone. Now just a line or two more to wish to each and every member of the Senior class, great accomplishments and success in the unlimited field of opportunity which may greet them in the future. CLASS OF 1918 The class of 1918 is not a class of athletes. However, in “Olie” Johnson the class has a representative on the baseball squad to be proud of and one who, in the future, is bound to prove a wonderful asset to Everett High. This class has done exceptionally well on the rostra. In its Freshman year it was represented in the prize-speaking contest by Frederick Allen, Stuart Crippin, and Celia Fowler, the two former winning three of the four prizes. This year Allen won the audience prize in this contest. Besides Fred Allen the class entered Harold Brown, Philip Riley, and Alfred Grant, making two more contestants than were entered from any other class. Last year, Aurie Johnson, one of our prominent classmates, was a speaker of the winning team in the Boys’ and Girls’ debate, while Prescott Whittier served as alternate. Whittier also accepted for the school the gift of the class of 1915. This year, the sophomore class has had full as many, if not more, active members in the Lyceum than any other class. It has one officer in this society, Alfred Grant having been elected Clerk upon the resignation of Loring Creamer, ’17. In the joint debates held on May 5, this class was represented by three members, Alfred Grant, Aurie Johnson, and Philip Riley, the two latter being on the team that defeated Melrose. Riley was a committee of one for arrangements for the Everett-Melrose debate. The class of 1918 also holds the inter-class debating championship, having won both the preliminary debate with the Freshmen and the final debate with the Juniors. In the Boys’ and Girls’ debate this year the Sophomore class had mem¬ bers on both teams. Celia Fowler was captain of the winning girls’ team. Aurie Johnson served a second time on the boys’ team and Alfred Grant was alternate and had charge of the arrangements for the debate. But we must not forget the girls who have served their class and school in the Girls’ Glee Club. Our class has six members in this famous group of singers, namely, Mildred Dolbeare, Mildred Faught, Edith Hoyt, Alice Jackson, Dorothy Colton, and Dorothy Bixby. The class of 1918 is also represented in the two new organizations that have taken root this year, The Boys’ Glee Club and the High School Orchestra. 12 Percy Hoyle and Philip Riley belong to the former. In the orchestra, Percy Dawson plays the cornet while Archie Goldshine, who has delighted many High School audiences with his solo playing, is the violinist. The class very much regrets the loss of one of its most popular members, Fred Allen, who has left school to go on the stage. Good luck to you, Fred! 1918 is not as yet an organized class. However, it has great expectations of success in the future and hopes to prove truly worthy of good old Everett High. CLASS OF 1919 The class of 1919 opened their innocent eyes on High School life last September with a membership of 426, a number slightly above the average. During the year, 76 have dropped out. We show a decrease, however, only in numbers, as our class spirit is still as strong as ever and our members have been well represented in the various activities of the school. Our first interest, of course, was in football, several members going out for the team, one of whom, George Sweetland, was successful in gaining the “E” so dear to Freshman hearts. In baseball we had two nines, the Technical and the Academic. The Lyceum, also, proved an attraction to thirteen of the members. In the Interclass Debate, three of the boys, Nathan Simonds, Lawrence Robertson, Captain, and Albert Everett, made a good showing both for the class and for themselves, although defeated by the Sophomores. Cheer up, Freshmen, three years more to make good. Four of our number, Harold Beck, Albert Everett, “Buckie” Sweetland, and Philip Cannell, have been members of the Boys’ Glee Club, which has entertained the school on several occasions. — v On the Clarion Staff we were represented by George Sweetland and Percy Chase, and on the Christmas Committee by the “husky” Freshman, Philip Canned. “ ’Nuf sed” for the boys. Let us turn our attention to the girls. In the Prize-Speaking Contest in March, Mildred Greenburg captured high honors by winning the girls’ first prize, a most unusual occurrence for a Freshman. Our one honor pupil for the year was also a girl, Gertrude Nickerson. We were represented in the Girls’ Glee Club by Vera Harrington. With this showing we feel that the Class of ’19 has a good reason to be proud of its members. In bidding farewell to the Seniors, we wish every one of them prosperity and success in every undertaking, and hope that we shad make as good Seniors when our turn comes. 13 THE CLARION CHARLES DOWNS, Editor This year marked a new progress in the history of the Clarion. The maga¬ zine issue was introduced and proved popular, in fact so much so that it has been suggested that it appear only as a monthly. The editorial staff was headed by Charles Downs, assisted by Marion Henderson and Madeline Cannell as Exchange Editors. The Senior Class was represented by George Kumpel and Harriet Spicer; the Juniors by Esther Joel, Dora Perlstein, Gilbert Di Santo, and Paul Freeman; the Sophomores by Helen Ford and Fred Allen; and the Freshman by Percy Chase and George Sweetland. Sidney S. Listernick was advertising manager. The Clarion was issued thirty-six times and the subscription rate was the same as last year, fifty cents. The feature issues were the Christmas and Glee Club numbers. The retiring editor hopes that the magazine idea will be continued and that it will appear in that form once every month. The work of the printing has been carried on by Mr. E. S. Byrant, Everett High School, TO, and the school little appreciates the amount of time and energy he places in the shop in order that the school paper might be successful. It is sincerely hoped that the editorial staff for next year will be well organized and that the Juniors will con¬ sider it their duty to see that the paper is one of the best around Greater Boston. Sidney s. listernick, Adv. Manager 14 ) 1 1 H The football season has closed, and, as you read this, the baseball season will be drawing to a close also. In the past year Everett has been very prominent in athletics. The football season began with a bang when we defeated Fitchburg 44 to 0. The next game, the Mechanic Arts game, was played on a nice juicy field. The game was featured by many “fall-away” slides and a spectacular 99-yard run by ‘‘Pike.” Rindge was rather a tough nut to crack. Everett beat Rindge more than is evident by the score, but were unfortunately robbed of their chances by penalties. Tilton, Wellesley, Manchester, and Malden were all easier vic¬ tories than Rindge. There was a certain sense of satisfaction in beating our old-time rival, Malden, so soundly. The game was all Everett’s from the very first, and continued so throughout. There was one regrettable feature in the game and that, the injury of Rowe, the Malden captain. Every Everett man was very sorry that the accident happened. The next in line was Medford. They gave us a hard game, but never had a chance to win in the entire game. They were the only team to score on Everett. Although it was only a drop-kick, and although they didn’t carry the ball over our goal line, they scored nevertheless and deserve the credit for it. In the Somerville game, our team was in very bad condition. Some had bad legs, others, bad ankles, and others had bad shoulders. In spite of this Everett won and was able to keep Somerville from getting dangerous. The second team beat Melrose 48 to 0 on Thanksgiving Day. The following Saturday Everett played Waltham, her much talked-of rival. Although we beat Waltham 6 to 0, it was somewhat disappointing from an Everett viewpoint. We should have beaten them by at least four touchdowns, but the team was still in a crippled condition. In spite of their crippled condition Everett beat the widely-her aided Waltham team. Then followed a week that none of us will ever forget. We went through a great deal of hard practice until Thursday, when we left for Detroit. Every man on the team certainly appreciated the rousing send-off that the students gave us. 15 “PIKE” JOHNSON, Captain of the Football Team We got to Detroit Friday morning and went to the Cadillac Hotel. We practiced that morning, and then started out to look over the city. Saturday afternoon we started the game at three o’clock. It was a grim, hard, old battle in which every man’s muscles were tense every moment of the time. Nobody can realize the strain on the fellows except one who has been under similar circumstances. Although we didn’t win, we at least kept Central High from winning. So it is then that Everett and Central both can claim the national cham¬ pionship. The class of 1916 may well be proud of its members on the football team. Thirteen of the twenty-one men to get their letters belong to 1916. They are Green, Fitzgerald, Bradley, Trowbridge, Karl Johnson, Pontefract, Ehard Johnson, John Johnson, Silva, Lynch, Shea, Davidson, and Foreshaw. “Pike” is. the best lineman Everett ever had; “Ty” Green, the best defen¬ sive back; Trowbridge, the best end; and Fitzgerald, one of the best, if not the best, quarter-back that ever wore an Everett suit. In the midst of our victories we are about to suffer a great loss. Cleo O’Donnell, the best coach that ever sent an Everett team on the field, who has coached more victorious Everett teams than any other coach, is going to coach Purdue University next year. Although we know that we shall feel the loss very much we realize that Cleo is going to something better, and we wish him the greatest success. Everett is exceedingly fortunate to be able to get “Ginger” Frazer to try and fill Cleo’s shoes. Frazer, the former Colby full-back, was one of the best backfield men of all times. Like Cleo, Frazer will get into a suit and 16 RAYMOND TROWBRIDGE Captain of the Baseball Team play. The team next year will have some time trying to stop Frazer when he gets going. Every loyal Everettite is with him and wishes him the greatest success. Next we turn to the baseball team and find it to be made up almost wholly of 1916 men. In Trowbridge we have a great captain. The team started off with a rush this year and have been going at a fast clip up to date. They have lost a few games, but still are due to end well up in the league if not at the top. With the passing of 1916 there is also the passing of O’Donnell, but like O’Donnell the class of 1916 will never be forgotten either in athletics or any other activity. WHO’S WHO COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT Ahlin, Ella, 8 Winslow Street. She was bom in Everett, May 18, 1898.

She was born in this city, June 22, 1898. “Rufus” entered High School, after graduating from the Lincoln Grammar School, and there have been very few activities in which she has not participated.

In her Senior year, she was appointed chairman of the Christmas Committee, and had the leading part in the Class Play. She was also secretary of the Junior class. Brodsky, Susan Ruth, 872 Broadway. Susan was born October 10, 1898, in Everett. She is numbered among the few honor pupils, and is recognized as a genuine student. Even though she is on this list, we do not 17 consider her above giggling, for she has been heard to make sounds which sound very suspicious. She intends to do general office work when she is graduated. Burke, Helen Madeline, 381 Second Street. Born in Everett, March 4, 1898. Helen graduated from the Horace Mann Grammar School, and all through her course in High School has proven herself capable of being an excellent stenographer.

Croft, Helen Bailey, 10 Winthrop Street. “Peggy” was born on Jan¬ uary 27, 1899 in West Dublin, Nova Scotia, but eventually, as must always 18 GRADUATING CLASS OF 1916 be, she dropped to Everett. She graduated from the Centre School, and after entering High School resolved to keep the school running, and is still in the track. She intends to run an office some time, if she does not run something else. Cushman, Esther M., 39 Rich Street. Born in Boston, July 1, 1899, and graduated from the E. E. Hale School. She has proved herself one of our ablest stenographers. She will probably become one of the best in her pro¬ fession. Dibbins, Ida Belle, 3 Hancock Park. “Borned” in Everett on January 31, 1897. She attended the Centre, and afterwards the Warren, graduating from the latter. She will continue her illustrious career as a stenographer. Donner, Helen Sophia, 54 Glendale Street. One of Everett’s own products is “Helene” who was born on June 29, 1898; and after many memor¬ able school days was graduated from the Lincoln School.

She has announced her intentions of attending The Sargent School next fall. Frederickson, George E., 29 Bennett Street. “Our music master” was born in Everett on July 25, 1897. He was graduated from the Hale School. During his High School career, he has afforded the pupils and teachers much pleasure by his willingness to contribute musical entertain¬ ment. He is going to keep up his study and teaching of music after he finishes school. Gourdine, Rosamond, 42 Wyllis Avenue. Rosamond has lived all her life in Everett, where she was born on September 7, 1898. She graduated from the Lincoln, and since her debut in High School has shown herself to be one of the best commercial seniors. She will be a stenographer. Giuffre, Jennie Helen, 52 Madison Avenue. Jennie is one of the young¬ est members in the class. She was born in Boston on June 18, 1900. She 20 went to the Winthrop and Lincoln. She has not made much noise since coming to High. Future, stenographer. Quilfoyle, John Joseph, 38 Gledhill Avenue. Born March 1, 1900. Graduated from Hale School. It would appear that John was quiet, but not a bit of it. If there’s any fun going on he’s in the midst of it. He will be a stenographer. Hanna, John Irving, 43 Pearl Street. “Jack” has a middle name like an author but is not “so it seems.” It is too bad he was bom in Malden, but as he finally came to Everett we’ll excuse him. He made his debut on July 26, 1897. “Jack” attended the Franklin and Warren. He was in the class play, served on the field day committee, and was the assistant treasurer of our class. He will most likely be a court reporter, he is so proficient in stenography. Higgins, George Albert, 41 Norwood Street. Graduated from the Lin¬ coln and High Schools. He was born in Somerville, December 5, 1893, and graduated from High School three years ago. He has returned and is special¬ izing in certain subjects.

Kelley, Eva, 24 Sherman Street. “Little Eva” was born in Everett on November 23, 1897. She was graduated from the Lincoln School and while in High School has been a very quiet, unobtrusive young lady. She is undecided what course she will pursue after school closes.

He has been on the Monday morning enter¬ tainment committee for two years; Senior class reporter to the Clarion ; is the Vice-President of the senior class; was on the picture committee; manager of the class play; on the field day committee, and a member of the Boys’ Glee Club. In fact there is practically no activity in which he has not partic¬ ipated. He expects to enter the wool business as a broker (?). Lewis, Alvera Beata, 38 Oliver Street. Alvera was born in Everett, April 16, 1898. Although she is very quiet outwardly, she is suspected of being the originator of many pranks that are played in and around Room 18.

He graduated from the Webster and after coming to High School he acquired the name of “Mike.” He has been the only fellow from the Commercial class to play on the football team, where he made a name for himself. He has shown grit and courage for a man twice his size. “Mike” will take any position that comes along except that of stenographer. MacGarvey, Helen Louise, 198 Vine Street. Helen was bom in Chelsea on October 6, 1897. After attending various schools there she came to Everett last year. Future, undecided. Matthews, Margaret Elizabeth, 241 Chelsea Street. Elizabeth gradu¬ ated from the Horace Mann School, after completing many, many years (?) of study, and entered High School. Another victim of silence, but neverthe¬ less well liked by everyone. She was born in Everett, April 18, 1898. McGaffigan, Sarah Agnes, 47 Reed Avenue. Born May 5, 1898, Everett, and has managed to “stick to the old town” ever since. She graduated from the Horace Mann School, and will, no doubt, take dictation from a business man if someone else does not start dictating to her first. Mayne, Margaret Mary, 48 Adams Avenue. Born Febmary 27,. 1898. Graduated from the Horace Mann School. Since entering High School Madge has been very popular. She has been in two prize speaking contests, and in the Glee Club, one.

She graduated from the Horace Mann School and after entering High School she has kept things humming in her crowd. Other than frequent outbursts of giggles, Frances appears quite rational, but the only other thing that makes us doubt her quietness is the noisy way she hails her “bunch,” etc. She will become a stenographer. McLaughlin, Rosanna Agnes, 5a Argyle Street. In Charlestown, on Febmary 15, 1897, Rose, “The Royal Rooter,” made her first disturbance. Since being graduated from the Horace Mann School , she has continued to create disturbances in school and on the athletic field. She aspires to “root” in some office when she finishes school.

She has been one of those students who have worked and said little. She will be a stenographer. Murphy, Mae, 18 Cedar Street. Born April 18, 1899, in Everett. She graduated from the E. E. Hale School. There seems to be absolutely nothing to be “got” on Mae, but then we don’t see her all the time. “Still waters run deep” and Mae probably can keep things going once they’re started. She is a capable stenographer, and will, no doubt, make one of our best sten¬ ographers. 22 O’Brien, Frances Alice, 30 Harvey Street. Frances came to Everett on November 4, 1898. She has gone to the Webster, Horace Mann, and Glendale. She was graduated from the Webster. She will most likely be a stenographer. O’Neil, Elizabeth Frances, 141 Glendale Street.

Hale School. “Ponty” never gave one the idea that he was anxious to “Shine,” but he certainly did when he was on the football and baseball field. He will keep up the good work when he becomes “Chief Society Lion” in Purdue. Porterfield, Gladys Lenora, 34 Baker Road. Born May 7, 1898, in Chelsea, but as the climate did not agree with her she raised such a rumpus that she was transplanted in Everett. Graduated from the Horace Mann School, after getting that dignified school all stirred up, and managed to keep it up in her Freshman year here. She is improving with time, but how much time it will take to make her a model we dare not guess. Future is undecided. Rand, Dorothy, 3 Parker Street.

After coming to Everett she attended the Winslow, and then the Lincoln, from which she graduated. Ruth will be a stenographer, and a good one. Rood, Clara Josephine, 61 Baldwin Avenue. Born in Everett, July 26, 1897. She graduated from the Lincoln School. This Room 19 sprite has almost as many nicknames as she has friends, so it would be impossible to enumerate them here. (Not the friends.) “Claire” has decided that she will be a stenographer until something or someone arrives to change her mind. Roorback, Edelweiss Mary, 32 Garland Street. She was born in Boston, December 31. She graduated from the Horace Mann School. She intends to do stenography after graduating.

She has attended the Lafay¬ ette, Horace Mann, and Hale Schools, graduating from the Hale. The assistant secretary of the class, this year, and a member of the cast in the class play. She is one of the best stenographers in the class, and the steno¬ graphic profession will be hers for the future. Sawyer, Mary F., 17 Morris Street. Born November 1, 1896. If ever there was a gayer lassie entered E. H. S., we should like to see her. Pe rhaps there is someone in the class who has not heard her laugh. That’s almost impossible for Mary can be heard at all times. Everybody likes her and is glad to hear her giggle. It is contagious and sets a whole class laughing at once. Future is undecided.

This extremely vivacious little Miss may be found at 74 Willis Avenue. As yet she is un¬ decided when she will commence her studies for a nurse. Last fall she was greatly interested in football. I wonder why? Baker, Helen. This smiling lass is a product of our football city, born July 1, 1897. If ever a strange sound was made among the D4’s we look to 25 “Baker” for the cause. After graduation she intends to take up millinery. She may be found at 46 Warren Street. Bazley, Lila Margaret, first smiled in her bewitching way in Whitman, Mass., November 4, 1897.

She intends to be a fashionable dressmaker and any orders may be given her at her home, 155 Cottage Street. Brown, Hazel, (and she does resemble “Nut Brown Joan”) was born in Malden the 28th of February, 1899. Although Hazel is always (?) quiet, she is very nice when you know her. She lives at 147 Glendale Street. There was a time when Hazel wanted to go to Malden High, but I’m sure she is loyal to Everett even if “He” does go to M. H. S. Dix, Helen Hastings, although this Miss was born in Providence, as a magnet attracts steel so she was attracted to Everett. She was born in 1897 and if you wonder what her future work will be she will blushingly evade your question. Dow, Ethel Louise, was born in what was formerly “Cottage City,” now called Oak Bluffs, October 10, 1898.

She received her Grammar School education in Canterbury, N. H. (That’s why she is so bashful and modest). Lillian is the 1916 Girls’ Glee Club Manager and was an actress in the Class Play. Lillian says her future is undecided and that she may be found at 11 Clinton Place, but if you care to know more definitely about that future, ask “a certain someone.” I’m sure he can give some information.

She intends to teach music and also continue her study of music at the Conservatory of Music. Henderson, Isabel Humphrey. This is our Canadian maid, born in that place August 15, 1897. Isabel says she does not know what she’ll do after graduation. I wonder if “Joe” could tell us? She resides at 116 Han¬ cock Street. Holburn, Jeanie Wilson Steele. Quite a name for such a quiet, un¬ heard person, but ’twas given her when she was born in ' Pawtucket, R. I., on May 22, 1897. Jeanie has a wee bit o’ Scotch in her.

Her chief characteristic is that of being a “Chatterbox.” Rice, Esther. Another of our Everett girls born April 7, 1897, although she does now live in Medford. Esther has served on the committee of the girls’ graduation smocks. If anyone knows of a good position for a charming young organist let Esther know, at 117 Dudley Street, Medford. Now if you don’t think she is charming, inquire of Bill Everett. He will know!! Spicer, Harriet. Born February 25, 1898, Roslindale. After graduation she may be found at 32 Waverley Street. This lively Miss always seems to find enough to laugh at during school hours. I wonder why she goes to the “Crown” about every day in the week. Ask her. Wheeler, Gladys E. Born April 15, 1897, in the “Granite State.” But in spite of that she came to “our city” and received her education. Any¬ one wishing to have some stenography work done please call on Gladys at 129 Glendale Street. Of course, certain others may, too. Whitcomb, Winnifred Maude.

He hangs his hat at 118 Ferry Street, and also sells them. “Sid” is going to take the Tufts engineering course. Bradley, Frank L. South Boston will ever be famous for having pro¬ duced this distinguished gentleman on July 21, 1897. Our class president moved to Everett in 1901, and after having attended the Franklin and Warren Schools, he wended his weary way to Everett High. “Brad” can play ping pong, but excels in parlor rugby. He is a member of “The Big 4,” noted for their extensive traveling—especially to Malden and Lynn (we wonder why). He intends to be a civil engineer because he has been offered a life term at Danvers for having attempted to raise a flea with a derrick. “Brad” is a champion debater. Was captain of the affirmative team of 1916, has fought on the gridiron for two years, is a member of the B. G. C. and the Philomaths. He proved himself an excellent “herrin” in the Senior Class Play. He gave 31 the closing address at the graduation exercises. The new Tech buildings are being rapidly completed in expectation of his coming. “Genteel in personage, conduct and equipage, Noble by heritage, generous, and free.” Creamer, Loring C. First gave proof of his arrival in 1898. Loring is another of the “Big 4” and although rather bashful in Everett, is said to be the bear of the parties at Malden, being no slouch and far from shy when it comes to parlor rugby and post-office. He graduated from the Webster School, and was wafted into High soon after, becoming one of the shining lights that will be blown out this June. Loring was captain of the negative debating team this year and captured all the honors due him. He also brought honor to Everett High by securing the gold medal for the theme on “The American Merchant Marine.” He was a famous actor of the Class Play and gave the opening address on graduation night. He intends to enter Harvard after a term at Mt. Herman in Northfield. Residence, Walnut Street. “Had I a heart for falsehood framed, I ne’er could injure you.” Collings, William C. This little chap first made his melodious appear¬ ance in Revere on October 19, 1896. He attended the McKinley school of that city, and then he decided to make Everett a visit. So to Everett he came and has made himself forever renowned as the leader of our school orchestra. Bill took two years of the Technical course and then came into the Academic (but we couldn’t help it). He is undecided wh at to do in future years, but hopes to be of service to his mother. He will be glad to receive callers any time, but adds that he will be at home surely at meal time-45 Lexington Street. „ As sure a gun , Shea, Edward Augustus. Born in Everett, September 20, 1986.

This energetic piece of humanity first started things booming on January 17, 1898. He attended the Devens and Lincoln schools and finally they thought it safe to let “it” into High. Sumner is a “bear” when it comes to Latin! But his new fangled pencil sharpener has made him famous. “Shep” intends to enter Tufts in the fall, but would prefer a college he could enter without taking exams. His shoes may be found under the bed at 16 Winthrop Street. “He’s a sure card.” Gray, Dorothy. “Dot,” the fair violinist, was born in Chelsea, though you couldn’t tell it to look at her. The date was January 12, 1899. They say that our country spends 45% of its money on food, and we guess “Dot” gets her share! She is one of the fortunate few to have seen so much of the country, having been to Panama twice since her High School career. Dorothy is a member of the English Club, and intends to study music after completing her course at High. You can hear the melodious (?) tones of her violin most any day floating from the windows of 36 Lexington Street. “The very pink of perfection.” Marovitz, Herman Joseph. “Hynnie” was born in the Cotton City, and came to the Football City in 1908.

This fair-haired member of our class was born, February 2, 1897, in Thomaston, Conn. “Dutch” has danced his way into fame, and we soon expect to hear of him “tripping the light fantastic” with Mrs. Vernon Castle. He is going to work (?) after he leaves us. Residence, 133 Florence Street. Green, George Benjamin Lent. It’s awful to have to be tied down to a name like this so we call him “Ty” for short. But we can’t eliminate the “Green” for he has attached himself so firmly to it having played three years on the football team, and the same number on the baseball team, and will continue along the same line when he wears the Dartmouth colors. Although “Ty” dwelt with the foxes of Nova Scotia for a year he has completed his high school course in three years. Residence, 120 Chestnut Street. “His heart was true as steele.” Nickerson, Clarence W., made his first appearance in Everett, July 12, 1898.. Graduated from the E. E.

He is a member of the Lyceum and treasurer of the Philomaths. Henry expects to study law. Anyone having matrimonial trouble in later years consult Henry at Glendale Street. Polsky, (?) David Patrick. Born in the “Bean City” August 26, 1898, and died-? David moved to Everett in 1903 and was captain and pitcher of the Warren school. Also has played on the football and basket ball teams of that school, and the Everett High baseball team. Cleo calls him “The Hebrew Sailor of the River Shannon.” Polsky expects to retire from study¬ ing (which he never has done) and rest his fagged-out brain. Lewin, Harrison E., known to “Fitter” as “Battling Lewinsky.” Born in 1898 at Medford, and after enjoying life for seven years began his “prison” term, graduating from the Daniels Grammar School in Malden. Played three years on football team at Malden High. He expects to enter B. U. Law school, and then lead an army into Mexico. Johnson, Ehard (Lady=catcher?). The famous leader of the “Johnson Club” of Room 21. Born December 6, 1896, Everett. He attended the Horace Mann, Nichols, and Mt. Washington schools, and came back this year to prepare for college.

Crockett, Philip Dyer. “ Lord Loveland, doncher know” was one of Everett’s memorable decorations on May 30, 1898. Philip is president of the Philomaths, that renowned club for senior boys, a debater of ability, and an expert at leg-breaking (also other things not to be mentioned here). He is the Orator on graduation night. “He has more goodness in his little finger than some have in their whole bodies.” Henderson, Marion N. This sweet girl graduate took her first bath in Waterville, Maine, May 17, 1898. Marion is president of the English Club, the two-year-old sister of Phil. O. Math, and has filled her position nobly. She heartily and verily believes in the saying, “Absence makes the heart grow fonder.” Marion’s decision of a higher institution now wavers between Boston University and Art School. “For she has such a face, and such a mien, As to be loved, needs only to be seen.” 34 Johnson, Karl. “Pike,” our football captain, first sprung into existence in East Boston, May 2, 1896. He came to Everett eleven years ago, and graduated from the Centre school. Pike has played on the football team for four years, and if he decides to go to Purdue with Cleo, we have no doubt but that he will make those westerners “sit up and take notice.” Remember Pike, “Blushing is the color of virtue.” “All his faults are such that one loves him still the better for them.” Danofsky, Herman Everett. A New Yorker, came to us from Malden High. Herman expects to go to Dartmouth next fall. MacMackin, James Joseph. Jimmie was born in Everett June 14, 1897. He graduated from the Hale School.

She was in the class play, and, with Leslie Sampson, will read the prophecy on Class Day. After graduation, Hilda is going to train to be a nurse, preferably a Red Cross nurse. Does anyone want to be a soldier? Residence, 30 Swan Street. Chandler, Harold, chose St. Patrick’s Day, 1898, for his birthday, and Worcester as his birthplace. We pardon the latter, however, for in 1907 he moved to Everett, where he has attended the Devens, Lincoln and Horace Mann Schools. His letters are addressed to 20 Timothy Avenue. “A firm believer in the power of silence.” De Show, Georgia, was born here, on March 23, 1898.

The first regular meeting was called to order September 15, 1915. At this very meeting plans were adopted concerning the annual Boys’ and Girls’ Debate. Later at the try-outs there were fourteen boys; the four winners were Philip Dorn, Captain, John Alcott, Aurie Johnson, and Alfred Grant, alternate. Although the boys did their best they were defeated by the excellent work of the Girls’ team, composed of Celia Fowler, Captain, Helen Erickson, Gladys Small, Hilda Kennedy, alternate. The question was, Resolved: “That the U. S. should have placed an embargo upon the exportation of arms and munitions of war to the belligerent nations.” 38 A little while previous to this debate, which was held on December 3, 1915, try-outs had been held and a team chosen to represent Everett in her annual debate with Malden. But owing to trouble with this and other schools in athletics, Malden thought it best to drop debating with Everett. This action broke up the Suburban Debating League. After these contests were over joyful news was heard. Malden wished to rejoin the Suburban League. Because of the lateness of the year the triangular debating system was adopted. Because of this system it was necessary to have two teams from each edward s. bryant school. The Everett affirmative team Speaker that debated Malden at Malden was Frank Bradley, Captain, Philip Dorn, Alfred Grant, Harold Spear, alternate. This team was defeated by the judges. The negative team, debating Melrose at Everett was: Loring Creamer, Captain, Philip Crockett, Aurie Johnson, Philip Riley, alternate. The negative decisively defeated Melrose. The first trial of the triangular system was very unsatisfactory, resulting in a triple tie. Therefore, Everett sought debates with other schools, but it was so late in the season that she was not able to get one. There remained then only the Inter-class debates. In the series of Inter-class debates the Sophomore team, consisting of Alfred Grant, Aurie Johnson, Philip Riley and Samuel Dibbins, defeated all comers. The officers this year and next are: Speaker, Vice, Clerk, Vice, Treasurer, Vice, Mr. Edward S. Bryant Frank Bradley Alfred Grant John Alcott Charles Downs Willard Hills Mr. Edward S. Bryant Harold Spear Alfred Grant Samuel Dibbins Philip Riley George Dyer. 39 0irW(6lceClub 1915-1916 At the beginning of this school year eight vacancies left by the graduates of 1915 had to be filled. This is always a very difficult task, to choose the right voices from among the many who are eager to join. The girls chosen for this year were Vera Harrington, Edith Hoyt, Mildred Dolbeare, Dorothy Bixby, Mildred Faught, Dorothy Holton, Margaret Mayne, and Edwina Ryan. Then came the Monday afternoon rehearsals, which the girls have at¬ tended loyally, and surely each one of the 1916 girls has tried her best to make this year’s Glee Club a success. November 8, 1915. The first occasion on which we sang was the Gilson- Hokanson wedding at the Universalist Church. The girls were delighted at this chance as some of them had never attended a wedding before. We sang “Oh Promise Me,” “Courtship,” and “ Juanita,which we considered appropriate to the occasion. December 3, 1915. The Boys’ and Girls’ Debate was our next engage¬ ment. This was especially interesting because the girls won. We were called upon twice that evening to show our good qualities as singers. It gave us a chance to show that Edith was a dear little “Violet” and that Ruth Baldwin’s ‘‘voice was like music in the ear” when she sang “Hello, Frisco.” One Sunday afternoon in December there was a community meeting at the Universalist Church where we sang “America, the Beautiful,” and “To Thee O Country.” We were glad to assist in the Christmas Program in the High School Hall. The story was good and the readers did well. The girls tried to carry out the Christmas atmosphere by singing “Silent Night,” and other selections. February 14th was our first occasion in the new year. This was the Longfellow program which we gave in the High School Hall. In this pro¬ gram all of the selections were written by Longfellow, many of whose poems have been set to music by eminent composers. Marie Murray, as Priscilla, was proposed to for the first time, “in public,’’and made a great hit as an actress. Philip Dorn kindly assisted us by being John Alden. We certainly appreciated your help “Phil.” Juanita Harpell, in Indian costume, recited Hiawatha’s Childhood with musical interpolations. We repeated this program in part for the Pine Tree Club. Lillian Edgett recited a monologue. Mildred Dolbeare, “our sprightly little Pee Wee,” sang two little kid songs in her own fetching manner. The girls frankly admitted that the best part of the singing was the dancing afterward, 40 and beginning with the first dance it was “High School Night” for tfie Pine Tree Club. Later in February Mr. Marks extended an invitation to us to sing at Court Hall in Boston. In addition to songs by the entire G. G. C., Alice Jackson did a solo dance, and Lila Bazley gave a whistling solo. The danc¬ ing which followed completed a very “pleasant evening.” The girls are all wondering if Edith is still waiting on the stairs “for her friend.” GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB The Prize Speaking Contest, March 1st, interested us because one of our members, Margaret Mayne, took part in it. We sang four selections, including the song “In the Dark (Pom Pom)” when Dorothy Bixby with her flashlight was a shy little spark in the dark. The judges’ decision was not in favor of our member, but “You did very well, Margaret, just the same.” The Glee Club Reunion in March was a great success. The hit of the evening was made by the class alumnae members of 1915 in their interpre¬ tations of “Memories.” In the games that followed, it caused great merri¬ ment to present our clever and witty Miss Brown with the booby prize for her great ability in tearing a pig. The evening was an enjoyable one and we all look forward to the next one the last Thursday in March. The Odd Ladies were giving an entertainment at the Home Theatre and they requested us to assist by contributing the musical part of the program. In addition to selections by the G. G. C., Edith Hoyt, Alice 41 Jacksoji, and Dorothy Bixby, gave in costume, “Three Little Maids From School” from “Pinafore.” The Charity Ball is the great event which the girls look forward to every year. This year we sang the “Farrar Waltz Song” and “A Girl For Each Month in the Year,” from the “Follies.” Marie Murray after having been proposed to by John Alden was, of course, the June bride. The girls dressed in suitable costumes, to represent the other months of the year, were jaunty and attractive from the fur-clad Ruth Baldwin as January down to the cheery Fannie Smith as Santa Claus. These represent a few of activities of the G. G. C. for the year 1915-16. We sang at many other entertainments and %lso refused many invitations. This year has been a very happy one. Every graduate will treasure the good times she had in the Glee Club as one of her greatest pleasures in the Everett High School. BOYS’ GLEE CLUB Such an organization as a Boys’ Glee Club has always been in demand, but until the present club was formed there has never been one which could be called really successful, excepting the club managed by Arthur Frellick, in 1914. That was the only one which existed for any length of time. Some of the present members sang in that club and it was through the efforts of these, that the club was again started this year. It was through Lester Chandler’s efforts that the club came into being. We wanted to begin at the first of the year but Mr. Colburn found it impossible to help us then (perhaps for reasons best known to himself). In the latter part of March Mr. Colburn finally consented, and after we obtained new music we went to work. It took considerable time to assign each singer to his part. Those who comprise the club are as follows: Philip Riley, Eugene Vogt, Charles McKenna, Frederick Morgan, Philip Cannell, Roger Sweetland, John T. Gaines, Frank Bradley, Philip Dorn, John Gray, Leslie Sampson, George Kumpel, Clarence Nickerson, Stanley Ware, Charles Downs, Lester Chandler, Wallace Roberts, John Yunitz, Vertner Bray, Fred Hoyle, Harold Beck, Albert Beck, Albert Everett, Arthur Lord, George Frederickson, Pianist. We have sung only twice, but judging from the hearty applause accorded us, we have made a good showing. We sang at an entertainment of the Y. M. C. A., given on June 14; this gave us a little more publicity. Those of us who graduate this year sincerely hope that with the present good beginning, the club can go ahead with the work at the first of next year, and thus make the club a permanent institution in the school. 42 There are Boy’s Glee Clubs in other schools, and there is no reason why a club in Everett should not be one of the best. The work lies principally with next year’s (1917) class. wv Photo by “Gus” Braun THE GIRLS’ ENGLISH CLUB The first entry on the second page of the Girls’ English Club was made on October 20, 1915, when the Academic Seniors met in Room 21 and elected officers for the ensuing year. With Marion Henderson as president, Ruth Engles vice-president, and Hilda Kennedy secretary, the English Club was organized for its second year of pleasurable and profitable study. The gatherings have been rather informal. Each meeting has been in charge of a committee of three who presented the author’s life and gave selections from his writings. The Club, for the most part, has confined its attention to the works of American authors. John Greenleaf Whittier, Celia Thaxter, and Mark Twain are among those studied. Particularly enjoyable was the afternoon spent with “Tom Sawyer” and the immortal “Huckleberry.” The meetings usually closed with a consideration of articles from the current Atlantic Monthly. A valuable and much appreciated gift, a Shakespeare folio, was received by the club from Mr. Richard Jackman, E. H. S. ’15. One of the pleasantest social events of the Club year was a theatre party. Twenty of our number, with Miss Brown as chaperone, went to see the Harvard prize play, “Between the Lines,” at Castle Square. 43 Right here I wish to say that each and everyone of us joins in hearty- thanks and appreciation for what Miss Brown has done to further the in- ' terests of the English Club this year. Our June meeting was a reception to the Junior girls and English faculty. A Shakespeare program was arranged and enjoyed by all. We earnestly hope the girls of 1917 will continue the meetings next year. That they may receive as much benefit and enjoyment from them as we have received, is the wish of the English Club of 1916! PHILOMATHS The first meeting of the year was called together by Mr. Bryant, the acting head of the Mathematical Department, on October 28, 1915. Miss Wallace, the originator of the society, joined us later. All of the speakers for the year have been of the highest order. Among them were Mr. W. H. Small, of Saugus, who showed us a short way to find the cubes of numbers; Rev. H. W. Winkley; Mr. Guy Entwistle; Miss Wallace; Miss Green; Mr. Bryant, and the members of the Philomaths. Pins of a suitable design were secured for the members this year. The pin is small, in the shape of a parallelogram, with the word “ Philomath ” raised upon it. The officers of the past year have been: Philip Crockett, President; Willard Hills, Vice-President; Clarence Nickerson, Clerk; Henry Washington Treasurer; and Stanley Higgins, Librarian. Other members are: Frank Bradley, Loring Creamer, Charles Downs, Sidney Listernick, Herman Marovitz, Harold Thompson, Howard Thompson, and Herbert Whalen. At this time, it is fitting and proper that the Juniors should realize that the greater part of the management of next year’s school activities will de¬ pend on them. Every fellow who is interested in his class should join the Philomaths, as it is an organization that helps develop one intellectually, especially in mathematics. Your success Juniors depends on how you start.
