CHARLES MICHAEL RODDY. “An all-round good fellow.” The best to be said is none too good for our class president. He has won laurels as a athlete, a busi- ness manager, a debater, and a scholar. In all offices he has worked most efficiently, and can claim a record unsurpassed by any other member of the class. New- man Club. MARIAN MILLAR SHANKS. Marian is by general vote the most charming mem- ber of the class. She has been a very faithful vice- ])resident, and her committee work has been of the best. Any class boasting of such as her may well be congratulated. HENRIETTA LITTLEFIELD. “I awoke one morning and found myself famous.” One of the smartest and most popular girls of the class is Henrietta. She has become celebrated as editor of the Red and Gray, as secretary of the senior class, and as the winner of the essay contest. Some day we expect she will be a Wellesley college professor. EDWARD EMORY WARNER. “When I ope my mouth let no dog bark!” Ed. is an adept in all arts, ranging from love-making to hurling a sphere. He has been prominent in the social and athletic world, being a member of the foot- ball and captain of the baseball team. Zeta Phi. 13

' Pile first matter of life and death im])ortancc to oeeupy the minds of the ' 07 Juniors was the eleetion of offieers, whose effieieney was soon proved l)y their ca])al)le manai ement of the Purple and W ' hite affair, d ' his disiilay was the first real mark of distinction which we attained. hw-en our elders look upon it with patronizini ap])roval. Later in the year, an auto spree and successful ffaj -raising won us still more laurels. It is needless to remark that our various class ])arties, receptions and other socials were strikin successes, and with pride in our hearts and a goodly sup])ly of shekels in our pockets we took u]) the respon- sibilities of Senior Year — and then! ! Laurels: social, athletic, intellectual, threatened to overwhelm us. W e were too much even for the Fac- ulty, and before the year was out nearly all had resigned ; even our beloved Sarah, whose de])arture was much we])t over. But why lin- ger with a recitation of the well-known details of this brilliant Finis to an illustrious career? Rather let us hasten with our good wishes for succeeding classes, who, we hoipe, will profit by our worthy ex- ample, and with our heartfelt gratitude and goodwill for the Princi- pal and F ' aculty, who have one and all succeeded in winning a warm place in the hearts of 07, let us bid you, F. H. S., an affectionate “AUF W’lEDERSEHEX.” 12

THOMAS AKER. “ I’ax vol)isciiin ! ” Tommy holds down a seat in 2(). He hasn’t one into athletics for a living, but as a debater he has shone like a new jjair of shoes We confidently hope to hear from him in a few years as Brother Thirdl} ' Aker, delivering red-hot sermons and leriding his flock along the narrow way FOSTER BAILEY. “One of nature’s living jokes.’’ An acknowledged debater, and quite able with his yarns to keep the girls from getting the “blues.” We regret to say that he figured in athletics only as a pool player. Zeta Phi. AGNES BERG. “Who thinks too little and talks too much.’’ Agnes, dear, has carried a cheert ' existence for four long years in the back seat beside Dahill. She is happy, so is he. HELEN LOUISE BILLINGS. “The hour is fixed, the match is made.’’ Helen has set the pace in the engagement line. We know he’ll be happ 3 ’ , and we hope she will. 14
