To Gretchen Lovell, a course in psychology on “How to Judge Men” so that she will know a good Guy when she sees one. To Kenneth Macleod, a trailer to attach to his car for the transporta- tion of his harem. To Thelma MacKenny, a discount on all purchases at the candy room. To Margaret MacLean, the priv- ilege of demonstrating the theory that “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.” To Warren McGregor, a suit of armor to prevent further embar- rassment when jumping over barbed wire fences. To Kathleen Morphew, one ton of peat (Pete) so that she will never run short of fuel. To Leonard Phelan, the right to take the faculty horseback riding since he says it is good for the blood. To Phyllis Pickard, a cushion to raise her head above the top of the desk. To Frederick Pickard, the right to see that certain “babies” in Pea- body receive milk from contented cows and thus keep them in condi- tion for certain social events. To Phyllis McCormack, the right to assist Miss Foster in making vol- uminous outlines. To Rufina Pollard, the title of school manicurist. We suggest that she work on the football players be- tween the halves. To Joseph Patch, a mattress and pillows to install on the fire escape. We hope that these will prevent him from being disturbed by his- tory classes. There is one stipula- tion however; we advise him not to snore. To Laureen Phelan, the right to chaperon her brother and thus pre- vent any of his wild “hopes” from running away with him. To Edith Richardson, a course in agriculture so that she may be on speaking terms with her farmer. To Lavinia Robishaw, her choice of any position on the football team. We trust that she will not find this game as tame as basketball. To Barbara Robishaw, the privil- ege of assisting her sister if she can be as gentle. To Flora Rust, the necessary horses and hounds to enable her to follow the “Chase” successfully. To Marion Saltzberg, a steplad- der to be used in making a higher score when her team plays basket- ball. To Vinson Sheppard, the right to preserve the lives of birds by shoot- ing at them and thus making sure to miss them. To Dorothea Scahill, our advice to treat the boys gently when they address her by original and affec- tionate names. To Virginia Scahill, a muffler to enable her to giggle in public with- out distracting the class. To Joseph Saroka, a bow and ar- row to be used to instruct the fresh- men in the intricate game of cow- boys and Indians. To Marietta Scotton, a sound- proof room where she may conduct a private debating society. To Chandler Todd, a ticket to Chicago where he may appease his two-gun tastes. To Joseph Sikora, the storv “Wings” to help him hold down his position on the football team. To Sumner Raymond, a poem of love entitled “The Village Smithy.” To Elsie Watson, a tricycle to en- able her to deliver attendance slips with greater ease and rapidity. To Catherine Sheehan, an ice pack to keep her from boilin’ (Boy- lan ) . To Virginia Smith, a needle and thread to “Patch” a broken heart. To Mary Stone, who loves flow- ers, a seed catalogue giving exten- sive instructions on “How to Care for Pansies.” In testimony whereof we here unto set our hand and in the pres- ence of three witnesses declare this 26

HONOR PUPILS The following seniors have main- tained an average of 85 percent or over during their high school course : Barbara Damon Stanley Machaj Stella Zylka Elizabeth Boynton Dorothy Dunn Barbara Damon has been neither absent nor tardy during her four years at high school. Dorothy Dunn and William Geanakakis have lost but one day. Class Motto: Non Scholae sed vitae discimus. (We learn not for school but for life). ' i ' ' I ' ' I ' V V V The class banquet will be held Saturday evening, June 29th at the Hotel Preston, Swampscott. WILLIAM ANGELOS “Bill” is one of those few fellows who seems to be able to get along with anyone. He has shown his good qualities as a business man by successfully running a milk busi- ness. He is also quite an athlete and attracted much attention as tackle on the football team. Varsi- ty club ; A. A. RUSSELL ARNOLD “Rus” who was willed to us last year by White River Junction is one whom we just couldn’t get along without. A valuable man in every sport and a sort of peacemaker in our class debates, he is one of those few fellows who can keep his head when all about him are losing theirs. Football; basketball; base- ball; A. A.; Math Club; Varsity club. 28
