MARIA LOUISA PEELER. “Take her up tenderly, Lift her with care.” When we hear the ])atter of little feet in tlie corridor every niornin j after the last bell we know that Maria has arrived. Her broad grin readily tells us that she is from Westminster. KATHERINE JANE POWELL. “I’ll speak in a monstrous little voice.” Kate’s only drawback is her timid little voice, which, however, has won her much popularity in the class of ’07, especially with one member. Throughout the four years she has shone as a scholar. CHARLES EDWIN PRIEST. “The deed I intend is great, but what as j et I know not.” In Charlie we find a very promising candidate for Tech. Often has his ready wit driven away the mon- otony of the class room. He served as chairman of the first senior class party committee, and has done great work in various other committees. He also sprints well (for the lunch counter). Lambda Sigma. HERBERT TEMPLE PRATT. “ He would shake hands with the king upon his throne and think it a kindness to his majesty.” One of our class wits, and a firm believer in the Smith Somaniac doctrines. We wonder what the class would do without him. 26

ALFREDA MAY MILLER. “I done the best I knowed how.” Alfreda has only Ijeen with us one year, but vve like her just the same. At first she was just a little shy, like all the girls from Westminster, but she is nearly over that now. Freda says Fitchburg is all right. WALTER ADONIRAM MILLER. ‘‘How green thon art and fresh.” To think that Westminster could give us Walter for but one short year! He is a shy little thing, isn’t much bother, and in fact the girls all like him. Zeta Phi. JENNIE AGNES MORAN. ‘‘Have you a little fairy in your home?” Jennie might well be called a will-o’-the-wisp, now bobbing up, and falling, and finally dying away when morn comes. She has silently completed a four-years course. MARY EULALIA O’KEEFE. ‘‘Poor i)rattler. how thou talkest!” Marv holds the record for demerits. Though small in body her tongue is of such a peculiar nature that she has had to be suppressed by the faculty. 25

BEATRICE MARTHA READ. “1 have immotal longings in me.” A fiddler of the first water. Ex-meinljer of the or- chestra, and a German student of whom Miss Wood- ward may well be proud. She and Helen are the “ lon and short of it.” CARROL BENNETT RICHARDSON. ‘‘Such a pretty hoy, and dances so lovely,” Itchy is just the candy, he can say ‘‘darn” and “gosh” and make up stale bluft ' s. What his aim in life is we cannot just say, but we don’t want to be round when he is aiming. STUART CARY SARGENT. ‘‘ Beautiful and Jchildlike he was, but now look at him.” When Stuart was a freshman the girls glanced at him and said ‘‘how cute,” but now he is a senior they gather round his desk and say ‘‘Oh, dear!” He in- tends to go to M, I. T. (N. I. T.) BESSIE FRANCES SAWYER. ‘‘Sober, steadfast, and demure.” Here we find another West-ern emigrant, but unlike the rest she is very taciturn. In all her rides she was never known to try to cheat the conductor. 27
