PETER BFI.I.ASCIII He has good gifts. Pete is a shining example of what study can do for a fellow. With his friend Spitzcr his destination is Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where we feel sure he will still further honor the Class of '22. Tech. Course. Honor Pupil. Debating Club. BEATRICE O. BOCSQIET Cheeks like the rose A ltd c he st nut hair Beatrice is one of our 'maidens fair' . Rea has been one of our most staunch supporters during our four years in F. H. S. From what we hear — she is quite a shark wlu-n it conies to studying. She belongs to the happy trio — Bea, Ev. and Mad. We hope some day that some wise young man will break up the trio, but then — we know Bea won't mind. We must compliment Bea on her ( lass Book work. Noted for her smile. Favorite expression: Gee whiz! ( lass Book Committee. College Course. DOROTHY F. BICKFORD Breezy and jolly is she always. Dot is one of our good-natured, stout girls. Every recess she faithfully meets her siMcr and helps her eat her lunch. We heard her first love affair was nipped in the bud, but we doubt if it really was a serious affair because she is extremely fond of cats and that is a sure sign of maidenhood. She has a very business-like way about her and we should not be surprised to see her advising the President what to do, some day. Noted for her giggle. Co-operative Commercial Course. Works for Mr. McNamara. 1 - 1- 14 MAR IF C. BELLEVEAU None knew her hut to love her. None named her hut to praise. Marie is kept busy as secretary to Miss Stratum and selling college ices. Somehow we think she is interested in Normal School. What, Marie? Marie is a very jolly and pleasant girl. Noted for her rosy cheeks and constancy to Dot, Barb, and Bea. Co-operative Commercial Course. Glee Club. Dramatic Club. HELEN T. BROOME When I speak, let everyone listen. Helen speaks so unfrequently that her Iriends are willing to listen to her when she wants the floor. She is often seen with one of our prominent typists. Helen is one of the Commercials and is usually quiet. She is a regular attendant of the First Baptist Church I maybe this accounts for her quietness). Anyway, Helen makes a very nice friend. Noted for her brown eyes. Commercial Course. CARL E. BROWN, JR. There is nothing lacking in his size. Carl is one of our boys who hails from Funenburg, and we wonder if they are all as short. For several weeks Carl has been visiting the locker room the sixth hour. We wonder if he's paying his A. A. dues by in- stallments? He did his part toward the suc- cess of the minstrels last year, and we hope he will help our class in the Class Play this year. We hear Carl likes to go to football games. What is the attraction there Carl? lie never went out for athletics — we wonder why!!! Noted for his height. Chief occupation: staying in the Locker Rcom. Tech. Course. School Council. Senior Boys' Club. Dramatic Club.

DARTHEA B. ATKINSON Mine is the life. Dar is one of our future school-ma'ams — here's hoping she makes good though we often wonder if she'll ever get there alone. What say, Eddie? But then — well — we must have some pep — what would a H. S. dance be without Dar. She certainly can skate but — we don't dart- mention sliding. Noted for that wave. Favorite expression: This is the life. General Course. PAAVO H. ATLIN J love tranquil solitude And such society As is quiet, wise, and good. Paavo is one of the bright lights of the Tech. Course. In one of the up-town lunch rooms our friend may be seen in a heroic effort to consume his daily dish of tapioca pudding, his favorite dessert. One good thing about him, he never worries about the next day. Tech. Course. Senior Boys' Club. EUNICE E. BACON All that's best of dark and bright, Meet in her aspect and her eyes. Eunice is a quiet girl, but everybody likes her. She is usually in sober colors clad, but always manages to look well. She be- longs to the Dramatic Club, so a stage career might attract her, who knows? Whatever she chooses in life, may it be a success! She is fond of dancing. General Course. Dramatic Club. DOROTHY L. BARTER A good jolly girl is she. Dot is a little member of the Commercial Class. She helps run the Freshman Class by being private secretary to Miss Sawyer. (She certainly was some shark in A. S. O.'s class last year.) Dot is never without Bea or Barb . Co-op. Commerical Course. Glee Club. Dramatic Club. DONALD B. BARTON We think too little who talk too muck. Donald looks like a little cherub but he can keep up when he is out of school. They say he is some dancer but we're from Missouri. His chief worry for the last month has not been girls (because she has gone away) but the slight danger of getting all A's. He failed to convince Miss Stratton that his daily excuse for tardiness was sufficient. He spends his recesses in studying and his periods in drawing pictures to send to another artist friend?? Famed for his mania for taking pictures. Tech. Course. Dramatic Club. Debating Club. EVA M. BACMIS Her look was like the morning's eye. Eva is in love with life, judging bv her smiling face. She is always smiling, reallv one of the gayest of the gay. Of course, her tavorite amusement isn't studying, but we can torgive her that. College Course. 13

ETHEL I. CAIRNS knoiv her by her stately air, Her bright black eyes, her bright black hair. Ethel is one of our Commercial students who manages to get all A's and still have a good time. If it wasn't for Ethel we don't know what the Athletic Association would do, as it is she who keeps the accounts straight. She is very much interested in sports of all kinds, and made the hockey and basket ball teams. She did great work on the Class Book Committee, and as chairman of the School Notes Committee of the Red and Gray. Part-time Commercial. Noted for her excellent marks. Dramatic Club. French Club. Hockey Team. Class Book Editor. Honor Pupil. Red and Gray — Chairman Department Notes. MARION I. CATE Beauty, like the fair Hesperian tree Rich in blooming gold. We consider all our girls beautiful, to be sure; but Marion can take high honors even among us. She is noted especially for her golden locks. She belongs to the French and Dramatic Clubs and we are sure she graces both of them as she does everything. She has even been complimented in fourth hour Virgil Class. College Course. French Club. Dramatic Club. Class Party Committee. Glee Club. REBA J. CHALMERS She will not be hit by Cupid's Arrow. Reba is famous for her studying ability and never puts off till tomorrow what can be done today. She was never known to show any preference for the other sex although we hope she will change in the future. Reba tells us she wishes to be nothing but a school teacher but we cannot seem to picture her as such all her life. Reba is quite handy with the needle and we imagine it will come in handy some day. Noted for her constancy to Mary. General Course. Glee Club. ELSIE E. CHARLES Smile and the world smiles with you. Elsie pretends she is very shy but reports from Lunenburg Street tell a different story so we do not believe her innocent pleadings any more. She never shirks her lessons and spends a great deal of time worrying over exams., which seems very unnecessary in her particular case as she is sure to come out O. K. She divides her spare time working for the Continuation School and in her father's store. She's small and of uncertain age, but then looks are deceitful. Noted for her fast walk, especially going to school. Part-time Commercial Course. Works in Continuation Office every other week. Glee Club. GEORGE E. CHARLES dare do all that becomes a man. George is the school newsboy. He sells ten or a dozen papers in school every day, besides carrying evening papers on Main Street.

CHENERY am loath to studv. Paul is one of our Commercial students but he dislikes to study. He likes to sit and dream especially in Law the third period. He wakes up to the fact he was called on in about five minutes later. Paul is not lazy, but how he does like to get out of doing work. He also likes to skip school and ride around with (???) in his car. Paul manages to get by when it comes to examinations and get fairly good marks. Noted for playing hookey.
