Babe's chief delight is fooling around with test tubes and substances having a queer odor. When she isn't mixing chemicals she's mixing soda at Kendall's, or dancing— mostly dancing. She intends to go to Normal next year but we doubt very much if she ever joins the O. M.'s club. Noted for her constancy to members of that Huntet. General Course. Senior Class Party Committee. BEATRICE I DOWNEY A farmer's life is the life for me, A farmer's wife I want to be. Beets has favored us with her presence this year, only every other week, spending the odd week keeping Mr. Peters company. Nevertheless we are glad to have her with us at all. As editor of the Class Book she de- serves much credit for its successful manage- ment and we hope Alma Mater has more like her. Noted for her quiet disposition in school. Class Book Editorial Board. Part-time Commercial Course. ARCHIE G. DRAKE Big oaks from little acorns grow. Archie is another of our little boys lb seems to be very fond of gum. He never has to study like most of us, depending on his ever ready wit. He is very fond of his dog At present he seems to be fascinated with a young Junior. We could overlook the fact that he meets hcr after G. F. S. meetings but going home by Day Street, never! He spends his afternoons selling butter to innocent people who think he is a clerk. We hope to see him a great printer some da v. If print butter has anything to do with it, we'll sav he will Nevertheless overlooking all his faults we are glad to have him in our class. I Noted for his grin. General Course. j, Senior Boys' Club.

RUTH M. COLLINS She is little, but she's wise, She's a terror for her size. Babe is one of our little girls, but then she's wise as well. She tries to make people believe that height does not Count in history. Babe is quietness itself and she was never known to bother the teachers by whispering?? She is very industrious during school hours; but outside of that she believes in having a good time. From what we hear, her Sunday evenings are pretty well taken up. Noted for her laugh. Chief occupation: motoring. Co-operative Commercial Course. Class Book Committee. JOHN V. CONRY Men may come and men may go But you'd be a champ in Mexico. Come and behold him. A true example of what the West End turns out. When Jack isn't throwing things around in Quigley's store, he is seen on the car bound for Leomin- ster. Rather suspicious you say? But sh it's only an aunt. Noted for those wise sayings. Tech. Course. Senior Boys' Club. HARRY R. COSGROVE The glass of fashion, the mold of form. Harry is one of those boys who drive daughters of Eve to confide in Beatrice Fair- fax. We hear he is headed for the Boston Conservatory next year. Here's luck, Harry! He likes to dance and demonstrates the art quite to perfection. What's this we hear about Springfield? Well, go to it. Chief occupation: changing his clothes. Noted for his winning smile, his Titian hair, his comradeship with Danny, and his confer- ences with Miss Sherwin. General Course. Senior Boys' Club. DANIEL A. CROWLEY It's a great plague to be handsome, for a man. Dan was F. H. S.'s star cheer leader, and we have to hand it to him for the efficient manner in which he directed the cheers. He is one of the popular boys of the school and he is always right there when it comes to a good time. Dan served well on the Class Book Committee. Chief occupation: surgical dresser at Crocker Field in the afternoon. Noted for his artistic presentation of the modern dances and his companionship with Harry. Class Book Committee. College Course. Chief Cheer Leader. Senior Boys' Club. MADELINE M. DACEY In the din of battle you could hear her voice. Is Madeline one of our quiet pupils? Ask Eileen. Wherever you see her, Eileen is always there. Madeline is one of Mary C. Smith's star pupils in Civics. She has a won- derful voice and you can always hear her in A. H. and in all of her recitation periods. Madeline generally has the front seat. We wonder why. Noted for her voice. Commercial Course. GEORGE W. DADMAN know it is a sin. For me to sit and grin. George hails from Shirley but we do not blame him for that. He is very quiet about school but we hear that it is not so in Shirley. George was on our track team our Sopho- more year. He is quite studious in the fifth hour bookkeeping class. He enjoys looking out the window. We wonder who he can see out there. Noted for his happy smile. Chief occupation: looking out the window in 47. Commercial Course. Senior Boys' Club. 17

EVELYN M. DUXX love my teachers, but you know My fun must have a little show. Dutchy is always smiling. We don't know whether it is because she comes from the Sunny South Side or just because she likes to show her dimples. She is noted for being quite a sprinter (for the lunch counter). As a member of the hockey and basketball team she did great work. One of Miss H 's permanent boarders. Noted for her constancy to Bea and Mad. Part-time Commercial. Hockey team. Basketball. Ushers at Lyric. Works for Mr. Jeffery in bank. THOMAS J. EARLEY We could stand him forever more, If he'd dissolve that grin in Hn SO . Another of the campers at North Dana. W hen among the fair sex, Tom is good but then — his one ambition is to be a Mechanical Engineer. He was on the Class Book Com- mittee and did good work. While at camp, Tom was very quiet and never went across the lake — we thought he was slipping, but now — you'd be surprised. Noted for that walk. Industrial Course, dee Club. Class Book. Senior Boys' Club. JOHN W. FAGAN Enthusiasm is the genius of sincerity. John is one of our future M. D.'s. He is sometimes very cold-blooded (and delights in dissecting rabbits and cats). He has become quite proficient at this, and can distinguish the epiglotis from the vertex vertebrae. However, that is just a hobby of John's but it is rumored that a fair damsel residing near Summer Street occupies some of his attention. As a member of the Class Book Committee, John proved invaluable. Famed for his cold-bloodedness. College Course. Class Book Committee. Debating Club. Senior Boys' Club. EFFA J. FARNHAM A modest maid am I. Although Fffa has been with us for four years, she still claims Vermont as her resi- dence. While in school she appears to be very quiet ; but from what we hear about her when she is summering in Vermont, we have every reason to think she has a good time. Effa is learning to run a Ford coupe in Vermont, so we hear, and incidently to run the bank here. Noted for her winning smile. Co-operative Commercial Course. Works in the F. H. S. Bank. Glee Club. EVERETT A. FARR Perserverance keeps honor bright. Everett is a member of the famed Industrial Class. He is an electrician of unknown fame. He hopes some day to have Edison as his chief assistant. He is right there giving speeches, and book reports in 28 (.■') and is also some physicist. Every other week he may be identified by a roll of electric wire which he carries. But for Everett this school would go broke. Industrial Course. Senior Boys' Club. LESSA FEINGOLD Merry-hearted, curly headed maid. Lessa is one of our part-time students. She is a very apt talker, and her laugh is con- stantly heard. No one believes that she will ever die of worry, but that is one of her charms. She is admired for her curly hair which sparkles in the sun. She counts among her friends one Laby. Commercial Course. 1
