She is booked for Smith. i oied tor her hot-air. ALICE IRENE BROWN. Red as a rose was she. Alice is a wispy, coy little girl, with auburn locks.

Noted for her seeming innocence. ESTHER HAZEL CARROLL. IVho mixed reason with pleasure and wisdom with mirth. Esther has acquired great ability as a waitress during her high school career, both at the lunch counter and at Whalom. iNoted tor her diminutive size. MARY LOUISE COMLEY.

BERTHA IRENE BALLOU. To those who know thee not. No words can paint. Bertha floated in from Winchendon at the begin- ning of our senior year. She seems to take delight in the Junior boys, although we understand a Glen is much to her likening. Noted for her refusal to consider Senior eligibles. BESSIE MARGUERITE BANYEA. Still in thy right hand carry gentle peace To silence envious tongues. Bessie is some reader. She easily walked off with the Prize Speaking prize in our Junior year and has since given us a few examples of her accomplishments. She also has found time to entertain a few friends, who say she makes fine candy. Noted for said candy. ALICE MARGARET BELLIVEAU. Measures, not men, have always been my mark. Alice has been fain to give us an example of her musical talent, which we understand is quite commend- able. She believes in no other beaus but those with wh-ch a violin is played. SUSIE ANNETTE BLANCHARD. Our acts our angels are for good or ill, Our fatal shadows that hang by us still. We were one day astonished to hear that Susie had lost her heart, while indulging in a game of croquet with Gardner. But ’tis so. Susie can surely buzz the teachers, too. Noted for her sudden love affair. 15

JAMES BERNARD CONLON. To spend too much time in studies is sloth. Always bear this in mind, Jim has never studied, always getting liy on his brains, with which he is well supplied.

And what is friendship but a name, A charm that lulls to sleep f h ' loss has not “stuck” to anybody since she got divorced from Butts, but has been content to have many. She, makes frequent trips to Townsend, perhaps to sail in the harbor. Noted for her trips to the wilderness. GRACE MARGARET CRONIN. Not a word, Not one to throw at a dog. We have not yet found out the name of the “burg” from which Grace came but we do know that she is here. She received special commendation in the 1910 English • Essay prize, and that’s about all. Noted for her popularity. RUTH MAY CUNNINGHAM. A feasting presence full of light. Ruth does not like the company of gentlemen ex- cept at a dance.
