THADDEUS F. CALL, 31 Commonwealth Ave., Gloucester General Design Thad is best known for his modesty, quick wit, and smile. Know him, and you have found a strong character and a heart of gold. To know him is to know the gay, bright side of life. B. SELMA COPANS, 111 Grant St., Lynn General Design An unbelievably smooth combination of chic and sweet petiteness is Selma — our Lady Astor. Small in stature, she is still our big-hearted Selma. Her twinkling smile and happy eyes are always welcome. DOROTHY W. COURT, 15 Century St., West Medford General Design Quiet and reserved while in public, Dorothy becomes Dot in the classroom. Without being what one might call wistful, she has about her an elusive gone-today-and-here-tomorrow quality which her friends find diverting. JESSICA GRACE, 134 Coleridge St., East Boston General Design Who wouldn ' t like Jessie? She is so nice, so quietly clever, and quite a bit reserved, but then that only adds to the interest. FLORENCE M. HIGGINS, Main St., Townsend General Design Florence is a nice girl who knows when to take off her glasses. The name she has made for her- self has several nicks in it already, such as Fossil’ ' and Tassel.’’ Her good-natured way of pre- tending to be exasperated is what is known as a panic in the Design class. LORRAINE HOLMES, 66 Grove St., Auburndale General Design Lorraine speedily accomplishes her work in a quiet, proficient and unassuming manner which is the despair of the rest of the designers yet she always has time to laugh at a joke or enjoy the most amusing situation.

FLORENCE W ' OLFSON, 108 Maple St., Roxbury Asleep, awake, by night or day. The friends I seek are seeking me; No wind can drive my bark astray. Nor change the tide of destiny. Teacher Training The stars come nightly to the sky. The tidal wave unto the sea; Nor time, nor space, nor deep, nor high. Can keep my own away from me. — John Borroughs. EILEEN WOODBOROUGH, 66 Monmouth St., Springfield Teacher Training Endowed with a New England conscience though she may be, Eileen surprises us with ultra- modern questions in psychology. Her exacting knowledge and practicality leave us staggering, yet we look to her as our unofficial office girl with confidence supreme. HILDA VINCENT, 46 State St., New Bedford Teacher Training A fun-loving nature hiding behind a somewhat sober exter ior, who demands justice for all and whose friendship is sincere. EDA ADLER, 10 Courtland Rd., Dorchester General Design Eda is decidedly interested in everything modern and makes it her business to create the most up- to-the-minute designs. Any day is brightened by her presence, for where she is life is. CLARA B. ANDREWS, 11 Page St., Danvers General Design Clara is as naively sophisticated as the cunning children she loves to draw. True, her preference for elephants as pets echoes the peculiar comedy for which her marionettes are so well-remembered. DANIEL BROWN, 42 Samoset St., Plymouth General Design If you want to know most anything from commercial art to the latest talkie ask Dan — maybe he ' ll tell you! Anyhow you may be sure he never allows himself to become slow in contributing to the wise remarks of the general designers. [ 20 ]

CHARLES K. JOHNSON, 9 Olmstead St., Jamaica Plain General Design Once you’ve known Charlie he becomes the friend in need — generous and kind to the end. We all admire his beautiful and surprising results with tie-dyeing, quite as we relish his quiet sense of humor and his distinctive smile when saying Good morning.” RHODA KENNAN, 55 Pritchard Ave., Somerville General Design ' Tis said those that think of others are the happiest folk that live. For all of us Rhoda has a ready smile and willing sympathy, and her sincerity in all her work prophecies its ultimate success. JANET LAMSON, 117 Westford St., Springfield General Design Jan ' s quiet appearance covers an unexpected love of fun. And you’ll find that her work in color and design shows a heritage of refinement, imagination and talent. HENRIETTA C. MAHONEY, Stephen Terr., Lynn General Design Henri” is a child of the great outdoors — eyes that dance around a flame in her brain. Our Henri, smartly dressed and apparently worldly enough, may often be seen taking a spin through the Design room with Mr. Alcott at her heels. MADELINE H. MANOOGIAN, Chestnut St., Everett General Design Madeline is known for her good nature, except when someone asks how she likes the art school • — one does grow weary of that bromidic query. Her work is apt to take her far — perhaps to Florida. Our good wishes go with her. JEAN REPPUCCI, 98 Paris St., East Boston General Design You’ll find in Jean a steady, quiet worker who is always cheerful and generous. He’s a friend worth having and a delightful member of the design group.
