Fo, why should we be surprised, that this conscientious, child-loving, active maid, so fond of cooking and household duties, is looking forward to a private kindergarten at the foot of lvachusett.

Uh dear, there isn't half room enough for studious Mary 's belongings in this tiny little desk! Pile in as many books as you can, Mary, and shut the cover down quick. Mr. Murdock's ready to begin! Put the others on top-you niay get a minute or so between times to extract a precious grain from your Destiny of Man. We all know Mary 's the girl that works every last second. BERNICE MILDRED DAVIS, North Adzuns, Mass. UNNYU is one of the two Davises who adorn our class. Her elegantly arranged hair distinguishes her, for, was there ever a new style of hair-dressing in which she- did 11ot appear? Coming to us from the East Mountain, lJ2LCliXY00dSl1lilI1,, lite is her delight. Rightly may we regard Bun as a distinct record-breaker, for, although living at such a great distance, she has not been absent one day of school during her course at Normal: Cthis ' is not allgb dodging the table-cloth shaking has been her greatest success. That she be as successful in all her undertakings is the wish of all. v N ETHEI, lNIAE DAVIS. Greenfield, Blass. if H0 is that?,' you ask. YVhy, that is our Gibson girl from Greenfield.

243 NORMALOCUE ELIZABETH MARGARET FALLUNQ iVilliamstown, Mass. ESSIE has come over from Billtown for two years to the school on the hill to find something about which to worry. If it isn't toe-ology, it's psychology. If one doesn't care to worry, tell Bess the trouble and she will worry for one. After receiving her degree as U. M. in June, Bess will probably rest in the summer if dances do not come her way. Have you heard that sl1e is the best dancer in ivilliamstown? In the fall she will go to her 11ew field of work and we all wish her the best of success. .IENNIE ELIZABETH FREEHOFFER, Pittsfield, Mass. ENNIES quiet dignity tells us immediately that she is from Pittsfield. Still, she adds her characteristic laugh to the chapel mirth, showing what Normal life has done for her. i .Ien was among the distinguished few who, last year, parted with their appendices, in consequence of which she has enjoyed about three times as much of some of the teachers' company as the rest of us. At Briggsville. she was exposed, according to custom in that school. to the dictionary habit , to which she fell a ready victim. Jennie looks wide awake enough on bright days when travel by the dormitory is good, but, strange to relate, often of evenings, when V well-known footsteps stop at her door and a knock is heard-presto! she is asleep. For a ready accomplice in mischief, a staunch supporter in fun, here's to you, Jen! ELIZABETH GALLAGHER, Pittsfield, Mass. IISTLING about our corridors, always busy, Bessie soon impressed us with her purpose at Normal. Though short in stature she is Very long in other respects. Of her literary ability we need hardly speak: for who is not familiar with her essays, letters, myths, etc. I.ittle less is her fame as an artist, to say nothing of athletics, where Bess always shines. Her presence in a crowd is sure to vouch for strictly proper con- duct, for if there is one thing our classmate will not tolerate, It ls .1 Hirt. If her present Views continue, Bessie will doubtless grace the schools of Massachusetts for many years to come.
