I O us all, Irene has stood for two years as an example of loyalty to duties to be performed and of steadfastness of purpose. She has but one fault, and that is a faculty for too much studying. Per- haps that is a good fault for we are very sure that Irene will undoubt- edly be a very successful teacher, and she most assuredly has the best wishes of her class for her success. I KATHERINE BAGNALL, Adams, Mass. V' A IT, our silver tongued orator, is one of the privileged mem- -ji A bers of the class of 1914, for whenever iiG5'l11,, becomes monotonous, illness proves an acceptable excuse for the movies, Katherine, is very fond of the other sex and is quite often seen in company with Hutch Cingsj, Bill, Ray, or Brad, Although we feel certain Katherine's career as a teacher will otn be lengthy, we know it will be successful, and we will all Be to her virtues very kind, Be to her faults a little blindf, LEILA STONE BARDIVELL, Shelburne, lNIass.
