Farewell Higgins, Junior High; To our teachers, friends and class- mates Bid we all a fond “Good-by.” Softly Sing Farewell in parting. As we leave the Higgins School, As we leave the halls of learning “Victory” will be our rule. Chorus CLASS POEM Good-bye to our dear A. D. Higgins, Where we prepared for Senior High; We say not so to our teachers and classmates, For we shall meet in the sweet by and by. We shall miss the morning assembly. Which we had twice each week; Where children on Thursday morn- ings stood before us. Some frightened, others meek. There where our teachers’ subjects Tried to penetrate our feeble brains ; Bravely they stood before us. In days of both sunshine and rain. Farewell then, to the Junior High Of the A. D. Higgins School; Now, then, and forever after “Victory” shall be our rule. Alleta Snyder, 8B. LOG BOOK OF THE CLASS OF 1927 We embarked on the good old ship Alvin D. Higgins School September 13, 1927, for a voyage of one year through the seas of knowledge. When we were settled, all having registered and received our state- rooms we discovered we had with us a new superintendent, Mr. Edgar H. Parkman, who acted as admiral. Our ship paper, the “Tatler”, was differently managed than before, 2 THE TATLER coming out in pamphlet form every month. Five dollars in gold was offered for the best Christmas and Easter stories contributed to this paper. The Christ- mas prize was awarded to Amelia Parvelac, and the Easter prize was awarded to Alleta Snyder. We stopped at a port to get water and supplies when a man of the Cur- tiss Publishing Company put up a proposition by which we could earn money to help our good ship along by selling subscriptions to their different magazines, for which the ship would receive 50 cent s each. Each individ- ual obtained a prize for selling 3, 6, or 10 subscriptions. On Armistice Day, Mr. Magill, who is a World War veteran, gave an in- teresting talk on his most exciting experiences and the war in general. We arrived in a port in the winter where snow had just fallen. One ideal sleighing day a few boys of our class planned for a sleigh ride to Somers, where we received a hot lunch, and returned home ward with much enthusiasm. The Student Council was formed in September and each room had a de- mocracy of its own. It met two weeks later with the Chief Executive, Benjamin Ambler; Vice-President, Edith Hue; and Secretary, Alene Bilodeau. The President then pro- ceeded to appoint different com- mittees. Among them were the traf- fic, basement, playground and law and order committee. The object of the Student Council was to make the rules and regulations of the school. This was so that each pupil was re- sponsible for his conduct. At one meeting they made mottoes as fol- lows: “Be Square”, “Be Courteous”, and so forth. Many of the ship’s passengers knew how to play musical instru- ments, so they formed an orchestra to amuse the ship’s passengers on dark and dreary days and for recrea- tion. A new instrument, the cornet, was added to the orchestra. At the request of the ladies of thi D. A. R. we gave a patriotic play en- titled, “The Signing of the Declara- tion of Independence.” We later gave a health play for the Woman’s Club. As it was nearing graduation, we, the class, came together one morning in the cabin for organization. We chose as our President, James Costa; Vice- President, Alene Bilodeau; Secretary, Stella Jedziniak; and Treasurer, Douglas Mallard. Then the presi- dent chose a pin committee, motto committee, and gift committee. There were a few more prizes this year; namely, a $5 prize for the best essay written on the Constitution, given by the D. A. R., $5 prize for excellency in English and also in Mathematics, and a prize of $5 to the pupils shov ing the Best School Spirit for the year. Our commencement program is dif- ferent than that of any preceding class. It is to be an operetta entitled “The Stolen Flower Queen.” On that same day we shall receive our diplomas which will start us on a voyage on seas of greater knowledge. As we end our most interesting and eventful voyage and leave the old ship — the Alvin D. Higgins School — we give hearty thanks to our fac- ulty. We are ready to enter the En- field High and shall ever remember that “Victory Is Ours Forever.” CLASS STATISTICS Prettiest Girl Mildred Fuge Handsomest Boy Raymond Oliver Most Popular Girl Alene Bilodeau Most Popular Boy James Costa Smartest Girl Alene Bilodeau Smartest Boy James Costa Vainest Girl Rosalie Lanza Vainest Boy Louis Lebeshevsky Quietest Girl Ivy Maylott Quietest Boy Matthew Dernago Most Talkative Girl Evelyn Zawada Most Talkative Boy Coburn MacFawn Class Artists Zych Twins Class Poet Alleta Snyder Class Athlete Michael Carenzo Class Pet Frances Piorek Class Sheik .‘.....Louis Lebeshevsky Class Bluff Alphonse Marcinkiewicz Wittiest Girl Victoria Jedziniak Wittiest Boy Coburn MacFawn THE TATLER 3 PROPHECY One day last summer while I was in Philadelphia 1 attended the Sesqui- Centennial Exposition. I soon came to a building in front of which was a sign which read, “See the Future Twenty Years from Now! No ad- mission! Walk Right In!” I went in and a man led me into a room and gave me a chair.

CLASS WILL Upon behalf of my client, the class of 1927 of the A. D. Higgins School, of the city of Thompsonville, State of Connecticut, U. S. A., I have called you together upon this solemn and serious occasion to listen to her last will and testament and to re- ceive from her parting hand the few gifts she has to bestow. Owing to our successful career in the A. D. Higgins School we have ac- quired many possessions. Having pity for the coming class we leave some of these possessions in the fol- lowing manner: ITEM 1. We leave the empty seats in Rooms 6, 7, 8 and any gum or scrap paper that can be found in them to the Class of 1928. ITEM 2. We leave to the Class of 1928 the spirit and co-operation of the Class of 1927. ITEM 3. We give to the teachers who have been our instructors a sweet and unbroken succession of restful nights and peaceful dreams so that they no longer need lie awake and wonder if this or that person has his homework done. 16 THE TATLER Girls PHs sical Xrainingf Class ITEM 4. We also leave to our teachers, all the amazing knowledge and startling information that we have furnished them from time to time in our examination papers. ITEM 5.

Edward O’Connor leaves his spelling book and best regards to Renzo Arrietta. ITEM 12. To Miss Taggart the balance in our treasury in buying a pair of rubber shoes for detective work. Item 13.

All the rest of our property no matter of what nature, kind and quality we give to our beloved prin- cipal for her use and benefit only. This is to be disposed of for the good of the coming class as she may see fit. And we do hereby constitute and appoint our principal sole executor of this, our last will and testament.
