XVI. THE CHRONICLE. Hulda Kratzke “Hooldah” “Hard work earns its just reward.” Hulda is small but mighty. She was not only Edi-tor-in-Chief of the “Chronicle” and Treasurer of the Senior class, but also earned the honor of being Valedictorian. Hulda does well in everything she undertakes. We may truly say that Hulda is the pride of our class. Catherine Leonard “Kitty” “Her deep blue eyes smile constantly— As if they had by fitness, Won the secret of a happy dream, She does not care to speak.” We all like Kitty. She is industrious and hardworking, but nevertheless, always finds time to attend the Southington games. Why? We wonder. If you want to find out more about Catherine, look for Margaret. Edmund Leonard “Ebbiev “He that has good wits has much to answer for.” “Ebbie” has proved his popularity by carrying away the majority of the class elections. In other words— “good goods come in small packages.” His humor, also sarcasm, has been taxed to the utmost this last year. His one failing—he is “a gentleman that loves to hear himself talk, and will say more in a minute than he will stand in a month.” Mary Loomis “Marie” “A fig for care, and a fig for woe!” “Marie” has won distinction for her typewriting speed. She doesn’t seem to care much about anything. But do you know that it has been foretold that she has an art which can be seen from her chubby fingers? To think that she had been wearing a thimble to bed every night to conceal this art!

THE CHRONICLE. XV. Philip Judd “Pip” Will you sing?— More at your request than to please myself.” Pip” is noted for his singing. His voice may be heard throughout the school when the Glee Club rehearses. He gets into all activities—athletics, fun and troubles; i. e. Math. Elizabeth Keane Bessie” Troubles may come and troubles may go, but I worry not.” Bessie is the stoutest girl in our class. Her happy smile and congeniality are shown in everything she does. We all know Bessie is fond of the Andes Mts. Catharine Keeler “Cat” Knowledge is power.” Where did she ever get all that she knows? She can tell you—faithful work and diligence. She has distinguished herself as a poetess and alumni editor of the “Chronicle.” We understand she doesn’t like her red hair, but we think it’s nice. Janies Kelly “Jim” “Always at it wins the day.” Jim” is our class athlete. His squareness and sporting spirit wins him many friends among the boys. As for girls, we only hope that Jim will be as successful in caging “Bees” as he is in caging baskets.

THE CHRONICLE. XVII. Mary Manfreda “Mary” “Then she will talk—ye gods! how she will talk!” This is Mary all right. There seems to be no end to her tongue. To Mary’s musical talent we owe many pleasant hours this year in the gymnasium. Harry Markowitz “Marko” “It must be done like lightning.” Harry is as quick in thinking as in talking. He believes in the old saying, “Never leave until to-morrow that which can be done to-day.” Celia McNulty “Cel” “She is a lady So tender of rebukes that words are strokes, And strokes death to her.” Like the rest of us, she’s been here four years studying business, but has the failing of putting “Pleasure before business”; however, she gets after her pleasures in a business-like way. Celia’s chief pleasure is dancing. Nuf Ced! Agnes O’Neil “Aggie” “What so sweet and so fair Can with thee compare?” “Aggie” is a well-liked member of our class. We all admire her good nature and hail her with delight, especially when the “Chronicles” appear. She is a faithful student but has a bad habit of talking in French class.
