Ervin William Gray ''Erv'' 1 wandered lonely as a cloud Solitude is nice sometimes, but Ervin prefers it a ma- jority of the time. Erv should be reprimanded about his studies, but then, where there is a good heart, there is a good excuse. Some day he will probably be pushing a pen over a ledger. Armando Edmund Greco Cheerfulness smooths the road of life Armando has been officially declared the champion breaker of chemistry apparatus by all who know his fine form in test tube and beaker busting. He is also deeply interested in Miss Smith's favorite hobby — American History and Civics. Walter Shepard Greenwood Let no man commit himself Walter is one of the quiet, unassuming typ es. He is a faithful student of Miss Stratton's second hour English class. Although we do not know him very well, we under- stand he is a staunch friend of '25. Eino Alexander Haapanen As merry as the day is long Eino believes in doing just as he pleases. He decided that German was a little too hard for him — decided to drop it — and did. He can be quite brilliant, but delights in playing pranks. It was the delight of his heart when a Sophomore to make the mighty voice of Mr. W. J. Dool- ing heard all over the school. He takes great interest in the band and never misses a dance. William Thomas Hackett Bill I came, I saw, I conquered Hill certainly came in for his share of good looks, lie is an able clerk at Payson's and is a good walking adver- tisement for that firm as he always looks so neat. lie is an all around good sport and very popular. He is not interested at present in any particular girl, yet once — ! 21

Stephen Bernard Gilmartin Steve Whom not even critics criticize Under the leadership ol Captain Sieve, we have had a very successful loot hall team. Steve lias the honor of being the first captain ever to return victorious over a western eleven. If Steve were on the debating team there wouldn't be a chance for the opposition, as he has an uncanny way of bringing his views to the front. A good sport and fine leader. Stella Mary Gionet For the virtuous maid, employment is enjoyment Stella is a somewhat retiring girl. Perhaps that is why she is not so well-known as many others. For all that, she has many good times in her quiet way. Stella seems to enjo}' school and her work very much. Laura's vivacity makes up for Stella's quietness. Helen Gertrude Gogan Breezy and jolly is she always Although Helen has been successful during her four years in High School, she still insists that studying is not the greatest thing in life. She picks up extra pennies by spending her afternoons at Kresge's and every other week at the Normal School. When a good time is in view, Helen is not far behind. Keith Goodspeed ' ' Toiling — rejoicing — sorrowing Onward through life he goes Keithus is a quiet, bashful boy in the presence of the wimmin. That he has at least some life in him was discovered by one of Miss Sherwin's helpers in the library. He claims his feet don't touch the ground when he jumps, so he's going to extend his legs. Garoldine Grant Gerry Hast thou beheld a sweeter gentlewoman? Gerry is always there with a smile and a twinkle in her eye. She is one of our high honor pupils even though a part-timer. Her advice for keeping in trim is to walk to school at a rate somewhere around sixty miles per hour. Bright lights attract her only when they shine in Provi- dence. 20

Helena Vieno IIa£elber£ Courteous though coy, gentle, though retired Helena is one of our merry ii-ls with a smile for every- one. She has a great many friends. In school site is seldom seen without Edith. Her fine marks show thai she studies earnestly. Helena is one of our future school- ma'ams. Edward Michael Hagerty Horse For never anything can be amiss, When simpleness and duty tender it Horse is just a frolicking, rollicking, great big boy. He is always catching some pretty girl's eye because he says he wants one. He is well skilled in his business, namely, raising Ned. After seeing his sleek hair, we think he must be paid by the Stacomb people to advertise their product. He knows how to get along with Miss Stratton and Miss Smith. Elizabeth Dorothea Hanifan For she was just the quiet kind Whose nature never varies Elizabeth is always pleasant and smiling. One thing we are sure of, she will never be arrested for speeding. In fact, she arrives at school every morning, just in time for the second period. A very jolly girl and a fine sport. William Reed Hardy Bill The world is a comedy for those who think Don't try to hurry Bill. He remembers that at least one race was won by the turtle. Bill doesn't often burn the midnight oil, but studies don't seem to worry him. He claims that there is time for everything. Henrietta Pauline Hassett Etta Indeed she was a merry lass Etta is a guaranteed non-worrier who has caused more laughs than any joke book. As she works at Jackson's, we sometimes drop in to see what the chance is for a free handout. 22
