T1IE CHRONICLE Carrie Fredericks “Carrie” “Every woman, has a right to speak ” Carrie lives up to this quotation. She is noted for her speed in English as well as typewriting- Minnie Fredericks ''Baby Sister” “I should be merry as the day is long.” We never see “Minnie” without “Big Sister.” She is very quiet, but how could she be otherwise with “Carrie” around? Beatrice Furniss “Bea” “Love while he’s here; tomorrow there may be another. Of course, we all know that “Bea’s” interest in pocket dictionaries has been more noticeable this year than ever before. Does she like dancing? Well, rather! Hugh Gavette “Cutie” “From down on the Farm.” Hugh comes to us every morning from the farm and loves it so that we can’t see him for dust after school hours.

THE CHRONICLE 15 Catherine Daily Cat” “A winning, wistful girl.” Cat” is a very shy girl, but for all that she manages to attract attention, perhaps because of her exquisite trimness. What more need we say? Helen Downey Hey “Care’s an enemy to life. Lessons may come and lessons may go, But I giggle on forever. Marion Drum Drummy” “Things in motion sooner catch the eye, than what not stirs.” “Drummy” is very fond of dancing. They say her weakness is for fat people, although she denies the fact. She is a good worker, but always finds opportunities to have a good time. Margaret Fitzgerald “Fitz” “A sweet forgetfulness of human care.” “Marg’s” happy laugh and good-natured smile are constantly in evidence. She won her fame as an actress, and she well deserves it. She was also Secretary of the class in her Junior year.

THE CHRONICLE 17 Mildred Godfrey Mil” “She’s little, but oh my!” Much praise is due “Mil” for the banner which she made for the class of ’17. She is in fact, very active in all school affairs although she entered our class only this year. John Hennessey Jack” “I would not swear for 15 cents A lie I could not tell.” “Jack is our star baseball player, and all-round athlete. As president of the class in our Junior year, he was very popular. He attracted much attention in our Senior play. Henry Hill “Henny” “God gave me curls.” “Henny” hails from Yalesville, but he’s a good scout at that. He has starred in some of the school plays as well as in the classroom. His optimistic smile and ever ready wit will make him loved by all who know him. As Treasurer of the United States he will not forget that he owes his training to the class when he acted as treasurer in 1916. Helen Howe Nellie” “Gocd humor is always a success.” Helen is another of our Yalesvillites. She is said to be an authority on good nature, and is especially fond of strolling on Sunday afternoons.
