FRANCIS JOSEPH GERAGHTY ‘Tis said that “A wise physician skilled our wounds to heal, is more than armies to the public weal.” If this be true, what an asset shall Frank be to the common welfare. Equipped as he now is with a staunch Christian belief in righteousness, how much greater, how much more valuable will he be to all of us when the Hopkins M. D. degree rests side by side with his A. B. To be sure four years is an exceedingly long time, not only to study but to wait. A long time indeed, four years before one can hope to hear the organ peal forth the significant march of Lohengrin. Maybe he’ll wait, but some doubt it. But those who know him, know full well he will wait. For years he has been a conscientious student but not narrowed by the thought that all to be learned is in books. His ideals have been lofty and his high ambitions in full accord with his ambitions as a student, a writer and a voracious reader of all that is worthy of note. Every moment of Frank’s time has been well spent digesting facts and fancies, including we suppose feminine foibles, all of which will some day bring fo rth a golden harvest reaped by earnest, untiring efforts. The sincerest wishes of the Seniors shall follow him and tho’ we dare not hope for illness, yet would we be well content with his ministering aid. “The man who consecrates his hours By vigorous effort and an honest aim. At once he draws the sting of life and death He walks with nature and her paths are peace.” 1921 21

THOMAS BARTON HARRINGTON Like the chrysanthemum and aster, blossoming late in the summer of life, Bart burst forth in the delicate flower of oratorj in his senior year. We envy him, few of us have similar ambitions, indeed we all accepted life as it came, avoiding as much as possible everything savoring of labor. As president of the Dramatic Association and portrayer of the royal role in Henry IV, Barton proved himself to be an actor of quality, and the success of the annual Shakespeare production was greatly due to his skill and untiring efforts. Like all great artists our erstwhile king is quite a connoisseur of the beautiful. The concern that was thoughtful enough to place linoleum on Lex- ington St., would have shown much prudence had they asked our class politician to wear lighter soles. Triangular love affairs were ever in- tricate. Sometimes the hypotenuse is victor sometimes one of the other sides. But when neither is victorious and when the hjqDotenuse and one of the other sides can’t even form parallel lines the situation is in- deed horrible. In the game of life Bart holds four aces: Ingenuity, perseverance, personality and diplomacy. Always quiet and unassuming Bart has long been one of the best liked and most respected men at Loyola. 23
