Che Static ERWIN LEE EISOLD Ludlow, Mass., December 27, 1907 “Tn limbs young, in wisdom old.” The outstanding scholar of our class and one of the most brilliant pupils Ludlow has ever produced is Bismark, who has his own ideas about most things. “From Missouri” fits him a good deal of the time. With his excellent athletic ability and superb concentrating power, it is no surprise that Bismark is a favorite. How any pupil can find time to play tennis, -box, skate, and take part in all school activities (including athletics and dramatics) is a puzzle not easy to solve! Bismark has a habit of excelling in all things in which he participates, so that if his plans of going to college and then to law school are carried out, we know Bismark will be a credit to Ludlow and the class of 26. First in work, first in play Will make Bismark renowned some day. Glass) President 25) Baseball 2 3° Soccer Football 4; Chorus 3, 4; Basketball 3, 4; Joke Editor of Parsot and Static 4; Class Play 4. ELIZABETH CAROLYN ELDRIDGE Ludlow, Mass., August 2, 1905 ““« uiet and shy this maid whom we call friend.” Lizzie tried all (?) of the schools in Western Massachusetts before she came to Ludlow. [Finally she settled down in the famous Jute town. We’re glad she did. Are you observing that rule ‘“‘Silence is golden?’ Teach us the meaning of it, for sad to relate, we, the class of 26, are not adepts in holding our tongues. We envy you for this and for your many accomplishments, which few of us possess. You have learned that happiness is to be found in patience and the simple things of life. Success to you always, Lizzie. Chorus 1, 2, 3; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Committee for Commencement 4. 12

Ludlow High School ERNEST LYNN CRANDELL Red Bridge, July 30, 1906 “ U'p! up! my friend and clear your looks, Why all this toil and trouble?” Here comes the 1926 cynic and pessimist—so he acclaims himsel‘! We wonder! He has a cheerful smile; he’s a friendly lad, too. Is it because he enjoys studying people? If so, perhaps that’s his reason for being so doubtful of life. He’s young yet, he'll get over it. One thing he has never doubted—his Dad makes the best butter in New England. So, you’re going to be a wanderer, Johnny? An “Tnnocent Abroad,” what? We all envy you and hope that your future will not only lead you into far away countries, but back to us here, where we may see you once in a while. LORETTA ELIZABETH DE ROCHE Ludlow, Mass., January 27, 1906 “Tell us, Teddy, tell us why, You appear so wondrous coy.” One cold day last autumn, the wind blew Teddy back to L. H. S. and into our room. Right then and there the Senior Class brightened, and, thanks to her laughter, have stayed happy. Nine o’clock bells? Ok they mean nothing to Ted. She has her own method of keeping time. Even in dancing, where she can “‘come and trip it as you go”’ with the bestof them. ‘‘Plinkety, plank, plinkety, plank” you can hear that jazzy uke of hers, can’t you? Haven’t you? Then you’re out of luck. What else “cc can she do? Well, she can smile, even when luck’s against her, she can swim, she can drive a Flint, and she can get attention at a certain garage in West Springfield. Keep on with that smile and that good nature of yours. You’ll win out with more than just “killing time.” Chorus 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4. 1]

Cudlom High School JAMES LESLIE HARRIS Ludlow, Mass., May 19, 1907 “Of their own merits, Modest men are quiet.” “Cy” or “Ike” first appeared on this earth in Ludlow and has attended the Ludlow Schools since he started on the weary task of seeking an education. “Ike” is of an easy going nature, never ready to find fault or jump to hasty conclusions. ““Cy’s” hobbies are hunting and fishing. Heowns a dog that has captured many a prize. So far “Tke” has no plans for the future, but we know he will be a success in any form of business he may take up.

ALFRED NORMAN HILL Ludlow, Mass., May 25, 1908 “On with the dance, let joy be unconfined.” Alfred started with this illustrious class in 1913 and continued throughout with the exception of a short time passed in the schools of West Springfield. Nehi states that this lapse was the saddest event in his existence. He now intends to graduate with us in June. Al is quite a dancer, making a specialty of the Charleston, in which he is the most proficient member of our class. Naturally, in dancing, he meets many young ladies, and Nehi has taken full advantage of this opportunity to list fair acquain- tances in many ports. Al was one of the main- stays in the basketbal! teams of ’24—’25 and ’25—26, holding down the center position. He has also displayed his athletic ability in football. Nehi will study engineering. We know he will be a success, as he is always willing to put a maximum of effort into anything he attempts.
