Our character has been developed here. If we are weak, it is not the fault of the teachers in our school. As Ion ; as we have been under the guidance of our school teachers, we have been drilled in the fundamentals of character building. Honesty, straightforward- ness. self-reliance and the spirit of fair play are among the many assets we have acquired. I feel that our class will always be a group that will have and will show these traits. Let us hope we have learned to put our leisure time to good advantage. We have been trained in Holyoke High School to ap- preciate the finer things of life. We can always find comfort and happiness in good books. Our minds and eyes have been so de- veloped that we find appreciation in good paintings, sculpture and the beauties of nature. Our club life and athletics have trained us in the ways of enjoying social contacts with our fellow students. We feel a tinge of regret and sadness when we think that tin- fine friendships that have been made here now must be severed. Hut let us have the thought and determination to make these friendships live on. Let us attempt together to make their life long. For what are so enduring as the friendships made in youth .’ How often in these high school days has a helping hand from one’s fellow student kept one from becoming discouraged! As we enter into our future work, let us be ever mindful of the contacts made here, for they will be a source of encouragement and consolation. In tin- future years may we look back on our high school days and think of the pleasant companions of those times. May those friendships be lasting and live on forever. At this time it is fitting that we pay tribute to Miss Fay, who this year leaves Holyoke High. ' For many years she has been one of the outstanding teachers of the faculty. In the library she has been an invaluable asset to many pupils in their history work. Miss Fay will live in the minds and hearts of the pupils who have come under her influence. She may have the assurance that each and every pupil will always carry with him the memory of her great work.

MADELYN ALDERMAN The way in which Madelyn whizzes about the hoys on tlit (lance Moor and the tennis halls on the tennis court has caused many a young man to realize his limitations. We predict that “Maddie,” because she has prac- ticed tennis so zealously at the Canoe Club, will win the Women’s National Tennis Championship. YVONNE ALLIE Flashing eyes, a cheery smile, and a jolly “hello” ably characterize Yvonne. When she realizes her ambition to be a nurse, it will, indeed, be a pleasure to be ill. Yvonne will become superintendent of the state’s largest hospital for dogs and cats. GEORGE A MBROZOITS rhoer for the dexterous basketball player,—“Am bro”! If we but catch sight of George’s gleaming face, we are reminded of the satisfaction we’ve had when lie’s tossed so many a well aimed ball through the hoop. As a great contractor, George will return to II. II. S. to reconstruct our “gym,” installing special seats for basketball players. ETHEL ANDERSON Pep with “Ethyl”; no “knocks” with “Ethyl.” Failing to adhere to the common trait of her sex, she demonstrates little talkativeness but much sen- tentiousness. Having always liked brass instruments, Ethel will become a clerk at a large music store. ROBERT ANDERSON Popular with the students, popular with the faculty, is “Bob” Anderson, our fair-haired boy. Whether it’s a tennis ball or a social ball that engages his at- tention, “Bob” always plays his part admirably. Tennis is surely “Bob’s” “racquet.” He intends to be a notorious “raqueteer.” What, with those eyes!
