GEORGINA SMART CALDOW. Society is not a comfort to one not sociable. She has not shocked us with any scandalous be- havior so far, but we still have hopes of an awakening. She proved an invaluable assistant to Woods on the class photography committee. We expect Georgy will be head nurse in an orphan’s asylum some day. RUTH JANE CASWELL. Sober, steadfast, and demure. Another Minorite. She loves to show her authori- ty in correcting beginners. Has a strange attraction for Sophomore boys. Noted for her hair. ELIZABETH ALICE CLARK. With malice toward none, with charity for all. One of our most brilliant and honored sisters. Interested in Red and Gray; Debating, and Literary Club. She has something to do with everything in F. H, S. but love; and for that she goes to Leominster. Chief occupation, singing “Nearer, my God, to Thee.” Amen. FLORENCE MARY CONDON. One of Erin’s fair daughters. Floss would love to shine as a lady. Has condes- cending manners and ascending ideals. Spends most of her time in McDonald’s coal office acting as book- keeper. Future leading lady at Auditorium. 19

MARGARET EVA BLAKELY. I hear a voice you cannot hear, Which says I must not stay ; I see a hand you cannot see, Which beckons me away. Margaret has a strong liking for romantic names; for instance, Percival and Reginald. We shall be sorry to lose her beaming countenance, for she is now going to far-off New York state to the Percy of her dreams and expects to “live happily ever after.” Noted for her piano teaching. J. G. T. CATHERINE FRANCES BRAY. A still, small voice. Kitty is always there with the lessons. In fact, she spends so much of her time studying that she hasn’t any left in which to grow. Noted for her nice, little voice. EDGAR LEWIS BUGBEE. I am asleep, do not awaken me. Edgar is always asleep until Marion arrives. Then he gets up energy to talk a little. Chief occupation, falling in love. Edgar always leaves the lunch counter early — we wonder why? MARION RUTH BURGESS. Wide is the gulf between me and man. Marion is little but she is wise. She always has her lessons, but she gets the teachers’ goat by not ex- citing her tongue very much. We think Marion will be a fervent suffragette because of her strong voice and her fondness for the men. 18

MARY VERACUNDA CONLON. Methinks thou art more honest now than wise. Mary is a good natured, happy-go-lucky girl, but beware the one who agitates her temper. She’s got one all right — eh, Mary? One of our “hello girls.” CATHERINE CORLISS. Sacred and sweet was all I saw in her. A quiet little maid of some intellect. She hails from East Fitchburg and is noted for her studious application. We understand that Catherine has hopes of joining the Red Cross society. ALICE GERTRUDE COUGHLIN. By her in stature the tall Amazon Had stood a pigmy’s height. Alice is fond of Athletes; especially those from West Fitchburg. We missed her for three months this winter. Usher at Whalom Theatre during the summer. Noted for her length. HAROLD STEBBINS DAVIS. Love your neighbor as yourself. “Bull” does not say much at school, but oh my gracious ! you ought to hear him outside of school. He tried football this year, winning his letter. Noted for his attachment for his neighbors. Zeta Phi. 20
