XVIII. THE CHRONICLE. Sherman Parker ‘Sherm’'1 “Not over serious, not over gay, A rare good fellow in his own good way.” “Sherm,” the Deacon, is a good natured, courteous lad whose picture makes him look like a “movie” actor. Your future looks bright “Deac,” but we like to make speeches in the auditorium, don’t we? Samuel Pinsker “Sam” “Sam, Sam, is a funny old man.” The saying ats him very well. Although Sam is the highest in standing of any boy in the class he still has time to have his fun. Wit and brains make a good combination. Perhaps in time they will overcome his radical ideas. Lucy Roper “Lu” “Howe’er it be, it seems to me, ’Tis only noble to be good.” “Lu” is always there when you want help. ’Twas she who made our Red Cross flag of which we are very proud. She won praise for her part in the Senior play. Lucy takes part in most of the school activities, yet she always manages to keep sweet. Edna Rosene “Enniev “How doth the little busy bee Improve each shining hour?” “Ennie” is a diligent pupil. She has a fondness for talking in typewriting class, but we forgive her for that. Her enthusiasm for basketball did much to make the season successful. Her skill in school is only equalled by her mastery of Ouija.

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.

THE CHRONICLE. XIX. Corrine Rundle “Billy” “Brilliant objects catch the eye.” “Billy” is a mild girl with a quiet but not backward manner. She has the popularity of “Class Beauty,” and the fame of “Class Artist.” Leslie Rundle “Nip” “The wisest man is generally he who thinks himself the least so.” “Nip” is one of the few members of our class who have been on the honor roll for four years. We all know “Nip” likes “Roses.” “Nip” has been popular in athletics. Mabel Rushworth “Rushy” “Good humor is always a success.” Good nature and quick wit are Mabel’s charms. She hails from the neighboring metropolis, Yalesville. Ask her if she likes moonlight walks. Marion Sheehy “Molly” “It becomes me to be modest.” “Mally” is a very quiet girl; she seldom talks, but when she does we all understand that she means what she says (?) “Mally” intends to join an ambulance unit after graduation.
