Albert Everett Cairns Look, he is winding up the watch of his wit, By and by it will strike one Albert made his fame by acting on our Assembly Hall stage. We'll always remember him as Mr. Moon. He was one of the worthy corps who dealt sandwiches right and left at recess. Albert's one great hobby was to cut up frogs in Miss Merriam's room. We won't soon forget Albert's good-natured smiling face. Boys' Glee Club, Dramatic Club, French Club, Class Plav. Gertrude Alguire Carpenter A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance This is Cert. She trips about in all her blond glory searching for more worlds to conquer. She has a mis- chievous twinkle in her blue eyes and an ever-ready smile. Good-hearted, generous, and frank, she is admired by everybody. As to her future occupation, we feel sure Gert won't be a Carpenter for long. Orchestra, Basket-ball. Adele Eleanor Catalini As wise as they come Adele is one of our bright part-time students and assists Miss Sherwin. When a Freshman, she won the French prize. Adele is shy at first, but when known is a good sport. She is real womanly now with her hair done up in a most becoming manner. Noted for her fine marks. Grace Charles Good nature and good sense must ever join Grace takes life a bit more seriously than most of us. You never see her dashing madly about the corridors, but rather she moves in complete self-posesssion. She type- wrote with care the perplexing copy handed her by the Class Book editors. Despite her tender years and lack of stature, she is one of the scholastic beacon lights of the class. French Club, Hockey Team, Basket-ball. Esther Wood Chasteney Esther is a quiet, unobtrusive maid, who gains faithful friends as she goes. During our Senior year, we didn't see Esther very much because she was quite ill. Esther has a quiet sense of humor, but which is keen, nevertheless. For example, ask her about that slow waltz with Buzz Cross at the Rollstone Chapel one evening. She has a talent for drawing. (.lee Club, Dramatic Club, French Club. 13

James Owen Brooks With fists and heels With might and main Jimmie has taken a little longer than the rest of us to graduate from F. H. S. He went out for football this year, but Coach Tarpey thought he was too old to become a milk-fed baby. Jimmie's main thought is boxing and he may be found at the Y. M. almost any time indulging in the sport. Some day we expect to hear that he has taken the crown from Tunney. Elsie Lord Brown Indeed she zvas a merry lass Elsie's bright smile and cheery countenance have made her many friends. When she is present, one can be sure of a good time. She has been football and basket-ball teams, week working in the office of Company. Hockey, Basket-ball. loyal supporter of our She spends every other the Cowdrey Machine Helen Maron Brown Congratulations to the girl who made four years in three, and with an honor record, too! Only those in Helen's classes can appreciate her keen sense of humor which creeps out and manifests itself occasionally. Helen is loyal to all school and class activities; dramatics, ath- letics, and musical affairs. Although she has not partici- pated in these activities herself to a great extent, she is always ready to give her word of encouragement. Orchestra, French Club, Dramatic Club, Red and Gray Board. Catherine Irene Burns Breezy and jolly is she always Kay does her daily dozen by sprinting for the West Fitchburg car every A. M. She chases up lost books for Miss Sherwin in the library. She enjoys all sports and is a splendid dancer. Hazelle Frances Burns Nature's gifts are priceless Hazelle is a pretty girl with the nicest cheeks (we imagine they're natural) and sparkling eyes. She has a great interest in West Fitchburg. If you wonder why, ask her from whom she received that lovely umbrella last Christmas. Don't get the impression that she neglects her lessons because of outside distractions, as she never lags too far behind her mates at school. 12

Ruth Chiate As happy as the day is long Ruth is one that can always be depended upon, and her big, dark eyes fairly snap with enthusiasm. We hear rumors that Ruth aspires to be a singer. That or a school- ma'am, which will it be, Ruth? She has never said much about her boy friends, but we don't see why there might not be some. Dorothy Evelyn Clark Better late than never. But, better, never late Sparky is one of the live wires of our class. She always keeps her numerous friends entertained with her wit which never runs dry. Her favorite sports are swimming and skating. She finds time apart from the study of books to devote to a study of the opposite sex. Grace Phyllis Cominelli We don't have to know Grace very long, before we dis- cover that her hobby is Chemistry. Grace talks about her Chemistry teacher and the subject morning, noon, and night. She walks with a peculiar swaying gait. Grace can also debate, only she keeps her ability hidden. Grace is planning to be a school-ma'am. Always happy and C( rdial. Glee Club, Pirate's Daughter, Debating Club. Charles Edward Connors Charlie made a hit with the girls in The Pirate's Daughter, and since then they have showed their affec- tion for him by calling him Percy. He is a good boy and applies himself to his work, especially to his favorite sub- ject, Riology. It is yet to be decided whether or not he believes in Evolution. We expect to see Charlie a great scientist in later life. Glee Club, Pinafore, Pirate's Daughter, Junior- Senior Reception Play. Charles David Cox J union year brought us Dave, he of the sunny locks and smiling urbanity, to settle down and imbibe the required amount of Wentworth and Smith, West, etc. To see Dave plodding his weary way daily from the morasses of Lunen- burg is to appreciate his endeavors. Chemistry claims a great deal of his attention, and the result is indeed grati- fying. A faithful and efficient worker, and a fine fellow withal. 14
