30 THE EXPONENT DORA MARGARET LILLIE “A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance.’” Dora is one of those ambitious young people who comes to us from Millers Falls every moiming. Not even late trains can make her lose her happy, carefree manner. She has won several awards in typewTiting. Dora is undecided as to the future. SARAH BRIERLY PORTMAN “Silence is deep as Eternity, Speech as shallow as Time.” Pro Merito. Sarah is noted for her shyness and her modesty. She is one of our most fluent linguists, having French and Latin on the tip of her tongue. She is also an expert typist, being one of our three stars who traveled to West Springfield. Sarah’s weak points are her fondness for candy and the movies. But ' vve all know her eyes aren’t weak! She has a passion for moonlight rambles with a certain one. Sarah goes to Middlebury. DORA KOPLEMAN “So cunning, and so young.” Dora is the small brunette who is usually seen hurrying about from class to class. Her chief accomplishment is talking. She just loves to talk! Wherever you see her, you see Bessie. She is a good typist, and has won several awards. Dora has not determined upon what work she will take up. JULIA ELILZABETH PIERCE “Every cloud will wear a rainbow. If your heart beats right!” Julia came here last fall from Easthampton. She is that calm, quiet girl with the glorious deep-auburn tresses. She has worked very steadily at her studies. Her smiles are so infectious that Brown keeps her picture in his studio to capture customers for him. After graduation, Julia is going “way out West.” JULIA MARIE FALVEY “Her friends, there are many. Her foes are there any?” “July” has managed to keep the entire faculty earning their salaries during her high school career. And just for variety, she( is switchboard operator at the Greenfield Electric Light Company. Rumor has it that Julia likes onions,—we will not add tobacco, for that is not true. Perhaps those are just significant of Sunderland? She goes to Bay Path next year.

THE EXPONENT 29 ISABELLE HENDERSON HERRON “Gracious to all, to none subservient.” Isabelle is one of our Leyden students. Her high school life has been spent worrying about exams, and then finding that she worried for noth¬ ing. She is undecided about the future, but will probably accept a position in an office. HELEN BARBARA SCHNECK “What is lovely never dies. But passes into other loveliness.” Pro Merito; Secretary (2). This wise young woman is one of the charming members of the class. The teachers never try to catch Helen napping, for she is invariably pre¬ pared to answer their questions. She has math, French, Latin and ’most everything else, right under her thumb. Helen is very much interested in Polly, and in a somebody at DePauw. She plans to enter Jackson in the fall. Success will surely go with her as it has here. BEATRICE ELIZABETH LAURENCE “The happiest heart that ever beat was in some quiet breast.” Beatrice startled her friends this term by having her hair bobbed, so perhaps we can call her our “bobbed haired bandit” now—for she is an S. A. S. collector this year! She plans to go to Mason Institute, to take up a secretarial course. ANDREW FLETCHER WAIT “And many a night we’ve merry been. And many may we hope to be.” Tennnis (2, 3, 4); Senior Play Committee (4). “Andy” was the manager of the properties of the Senior play, and he certainly did do his bit toward making it a success. He is very skilled in geometry, and can prove or disprove any proposition. He swings a racquet which paralyzes all his opponents with fear. He has won many games for G. H. S. Often one may see his car gliding up toward Silver street. We wonder why? “Andy” goes to R. P. 1. this fall. MARGARET PATRICIA FITZGERALD “She is a winsome wee thing.” Spanish play (4). “Petite” is she who took the part of Luisa so charmingly, in “Los Pantolones,” this year’s Spanish play. Margaret never says much until you get her started, when she is voluble enough. Margaret always has a smile handy. She has made it known that she plans to go to Framingham Normal next year.

THE EXPONENT 31 EDWIN GOULD FISKE “Give my compliments—Mr. Veller’s compliments—to the Justice; and tell him I’ve spiled his Beadle,” Basketball (3, 4) ; Football (4). “Pinky” has always been popular with the Exponent’s Grinds Depart¬ ments, but he hasn’t had to rely on that for fame. His well-known head of hair streaks around a basketball floor like a comet with a mission in life. He isn’t asleep very often. And they say that “Pinky” isn’t so bashful about girls as he used to be. REGINALD FOSTER PFERSICK “God bless him—who first invented sleep.” Baseball (3-4) ; Basketball (2, 3, 4 ); Football (3-4) ; Class Marshal (4). The tall, dark and handsome sheik of the class of ’24 is “Reggie.” He has been a clever pitcher, and center on the football and basketball teams. He led the team in points in basketball two years, and has always been among the valley leaders. His favorite pastime, outside of sleeping, is to sit on a stonewall and smoke his old “Briar.” He expects to be a post graduate next year. We wish you the best of luck, “Hutch.” ROLAND ELLSWORTH REED “Ah, there are no children any longer.” Tennis (3-4) ; Basketball (4) ; S. A. S. (4); Assistant Manager Ex¬ ponent (2). “Roily” is a good thing in a small package, as all will agree. His work helped greatly in making the basketball team so sucessful this last year. He wields a wicked racquet in tennis, and, through it, has brought G. H. S. much fame in the neighboring schools. We wonder if his heart is immune to Cupid’s dart. This youth intends to enliven M. A. C. next year. ISABELLE LIVINGSTON “For I’m to be Queen o’ the May, mother, I’m to be Queen o’ the May” Senior-Junior Debate (3); Orchestra (1, 2, 3, 4); Prom Committee (3); President Glee Club (4); Senior Play (4) ; Exponent (4). There is no dispute as to “whose Izzy is she?” for. “Izzy” belongs to the whole class. And what a big place she has filled! She excels in a great many things, but her strong points are Latin, math, and debate. Who can forget last year’s debate! And didn’t you sympathize with Araminta when Mrs. Faulkner appeared? How she can make the old assembly piano peal forth! “Izzy” intends to take a post graduate course, attend Smith, and then take a course in law at Columbia. We’re betting on her for the first feminine Chief Justice. ANTOINETTE JOSEPHINE KOZISKI “The mildest manners and the gentlest heart.” Antoinette is one of those quiet girls (in school), who never says much, but seems to be deep in thought. We wonder what she is thinking about? This ambitious girl is one of our commercial students, and has won medals and certificates in typewriting. She has no definite plans for the future.
