She never tires of talking about the beauties and virtues of her home town and especially of the friends of the family who are very nu- merous.

Helen, like some of the other girls, shows a strlklng fondness for Grammar, as she takes a special course in this subject lVhether Helen will carry on her Domestic Arts ln the home or school, we cannot say. ALICE DUTTON, Norwich, Vermont :JN the fall of 1919, a dignified lass from Vermont came to join the ranks of our class. Alice Lyman Dutton is, you know, her name. Do we all know Alice? I assure you we do, and while here at Normal, she has won great fame. Wiherever there is something going on, Alice is there too. So we think, that if her ambitions are fulfilled, she will make a very successful teacher and wise, and to a lofty position, she is destined to rise.

Mele has been a great addition to our class and certainly a despair to the grind committee.

JOSEPHINE COWING, Hadley, Mass. And when a man's in the case, You know all other things give place. EIO, our representative from Hadley, has blue eyes sparkling with fun and a laugh often heard ringing through the corridors at dorm. Ever since Jon entered our school she has shown a marked super- iority over many of her classmates when it comes to delivering an oration. Jon is a fine teacher and we all wish her the best of success but we fear she will not cling to the profession long as she has for some time been very much interested in Massachusetts Aggie EDITH HELEN CROMACK, Shelburne, Mass. 'ii' DITH came to Normal from Shelburne, a little town beyond the Hoosac Tunnel. At first, she seemed a very quiet, bashful, little girl. However, it did not take many recitations in Science to prove that there was quite a deal of solid knowledge concealed behind that retiring exterior. During all our course, she surprised us with ready answers to questions requiring thought too deep for the other members of the class. Besides being gifted with knowledge, Edith has many other pleasing attributes. One is that she has great ability at making baskets in Gym.', Talented with a sweet voice, she is one of the few honored by being asked to sing solos in Assembly. VVe have no duobt but that she will make a most successful teacher. She carries with her into her chosen profession not only the best wishes of her friends and companions but also a countenance in which did meet sweet records, promises as sweet.

Her accomplishments are numerous, but her love for Chemistry and Gym, quite outshine all others. A few of Mary's charms are her happy carefree smile and The rainbow must have lent her Some of its airy grace, The wild rose parted with a blush That nestled on her facef, It may be that beauty is only skin deep, but hlaryis smile is the outward 'expression of the kindest of nature's and the best of friends.

As captain of the 5 basketball team and one of the star players she has won great fame. Bert also was the Junior who was courafreous enough t accept a challenge from a Senior in tennis. rv 5 0 The Glee Club girls wisely chose her as leader of their club where she has been most successful because of her faithfulness, patience and musical education. Bert has her favorite classes as we all have.

HELEN KATHRYN FLAHERTY, Adams, Mass. A nzazd of this century, yet how meek. resided ln Adams. We do not know the reason for this sudden change but perhaps it is because of the advantages which the Adams 'HELEN came to the Normal from Cheshire but of late she has Public Library offers her. She has seemed to be an all round favorite with her classmates and has thrilled all with her accounts of tl1e Cheshire dances-but perhaps it is better to draw a Curtin over these affairs. VVe know that Helen will meet with success in whatever she under- takes, especially if she goes Wfest and stops at Iowa.
