NORMALUGUE MARY FALLON, NORTH ADAMS, Mass. LTHOUGH Mary hails from Braytonville, our sister metropolis, she is none the less remarkable for her good looks, kindness and all around good nature. 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.

30 NORMALOGUE LOIS MYRA FLANDERS, Pownal, Vermont I HE ease with which Lois makes goals in basket-ball leads one to think that she is not easily disturbed, but let the thunder roar and the lightning flash and you find that she has a well developed nervous system. Lois is also our great geography scholar. For although the car may be late, she always arrives in time to explain the results of the great ice sheet to the class. WVe hope before she goes to make her home in New York state that she will be able to earn an auto to get her there in time for the great event. ,I I have told you the beginning, and if it please your ladyships you may see the end.', RUTH GORDON, Wlilliamstown, Blass.

Gordy,' has been called one of our quiet QD cla.ssmates but she is always ready for all the fun going. Her ever radiant smile and- yes, that curly blonde hair which she positively cannot help has always been a pleasure to us all. VVe are all delighted to think that the pension bill has been passed but we are sure that Ruth will never reap any benefit. How lucky it is that she chose the course she did. The class of 1914 wish her great happiness in her future life. HELENE GREGORY, Sheffield, Mass.
