CLASS OF ’25 Miss Davey — Mason, pick up your desk and put it on your book. The other day in English, Miss Davey passed out new books. Emma, on seeing in the front a picture of John Milton, exclaimed, “Oh, isn’t he cute!” Doris Stone and Grace Hooper re- cently joined the bobbed-haired ranks, and we hope the rest will follow their example. Elmer Smith recently appeared at school on time — the morning of the earthquake. Miss Davey — We will now turn to your foreign relations. (U. S. History.) Mason — I haven’t any foreign rela- tions. Hilda has been wandering around looking as if she was hunting for some- thing — Mena has returned again and now Hilda wears a look of great satis- faction. The town will soon have to appropri- ate money for a new sidewalk along the Main Road from Lucy’s house down, if some people don’t let up on it. Carl Haraden is again showing a great liking for Kittys. The night of the Easter Monday dance he asked the orchestra to play “Oh, Katherina.” Miss Davey — Which do you think is the best character, Macbeth or Lady Macbeth? Humphrey — I think Macbeth is the greater character, because he was a man. A favorite saying with a certain Sen- ior girl is, “Oh, Junior, be good.” Helen Lovering’s favorite at present is a “hot dog,” at noon or recess. She is seldom seen without one.

THE HAMILTONIAN 9 The expenses for the trip have been defrayed by having sales of various types, dramas, whist parties, dances and other activities during the High School year. The Senior class will leave for Wash- ington Friday, April 24, and are to re- main for a period of about a week. After spending a day or so in New York, they are to continue on to Wash- ington. They plan to view the Capitol, government buildings, and all other objects of special interest. Through the kindness of the School Board this trip has been made possible ; also by the help of the teachers and townspeople. As to the Senior class itself, it is needless to state that it has labored un- ceasingly, for every pupil has cooper- ated most willingly to gain the objec- tive for which it has long been striving. The Junior class at this time ex- presses its sincerest wishes to the Sen- iors that a very pleasant and success- ful journey will be had. — Dorothy Bancroft, ’26. With the coming of the spring vaca- tion we look forward to a week of rest, and a gathering together of our ener- gies for the last period of the school year. To the Seniors the week means much — a realization of a dream and a goal toward which they have worked hard, and the Hamiltonian takes this opportunity to join with the high school in its wish for the fulfillment of that dream in every detail. With the return to school the Seniors will be on the last stretch of their four year course. To many of them it means the end of their school life. This should mean much, and the most should be made of the opportunity to collect the threads and bind them to- gether for future use. It is a time for all of us to make an extra effort to make our year a suc- cess, so that we may enjoy to the full our long vacation. The Hamiltonian wishes every one a pleasant vacation and a return to school with plenty of “pep.” ixs US ' US ttr ixs isr isr ixs txs isr tss ' iss ' ns tsr ar ns ns ttr ns nr ns nr THE HAMILTONIAN is printed at the plant of NORTH SHORE PRESS, Inc.

THE HAMILTONIAN 11 CLASS NOTES ’26 The Juniors in general are keyed up to the high mark over the coming Jun- ior Prom on May 8, 1925. All commit- tees have been elected and everything is being put in readiness. An orches- tra has been hired that is consid- ered the best in the immediate vicinity. Most of the invitations are out, and one of the most successful Junior Proms in the annals of the school is anticipated. A few of the members of the biology class recently enjoyed a most educa- tional and interesting trip to the Aqua- rium in South Boston. Mr. Watson was in charge of the group. Have you heard of the MMM trio? Inquire of the Juniors. Miss Cary giving out the next lesson, “For tomorrow we will have the verb craindre to write orally.” Ask Cullen what he was doing down- stairs the night of the Junior supper. Did your president have a good time at the supper? We’ll say so. Trussell’s latest friend is the Dish Pan. Two unexpected friends arrived at our supper and two of our girl class- mates immediately became useless. The Junior class recently gave a sup- per at the South school. A good time was had by all that were present and the financial success was encouraging. Perhaps the Junior boys won’t do their “stuff” at the Junior Prom this year — not saying anything about the girls ! CLASS OF ’27 S. A. — What is the matter with you? P. Me. — Oh, I just stuck my hand in the pen point. We wonder where Julia Buzzell got her class pin? Wanted A young girl about fifteen years old, tall and with dark hair and eyes. Must be very pretty and kind, also must like horses. — Apply to Peter MacCurrach. The girls have started in playing Rounders again with better luck than last fall. The Freshman girls are very good at it, however, and have won over the Sophomores several times. Class dues have dwindled during the last few months and many have not paid since the beginning of school. They are urged to show their school spirit. If more class meetings were held, more work could be accomplished, es- pecially if more than half the class at- tended “Mother.” “Yes, son.” “Daddy said Uncle Jim was the bee’s knees. What does the bee’s knees mean ?” “Oh, that’s only slang for the cat’s meow, dear.”
