1918 NORMALOGUE ikbnha Ztaattie Bolton NORTHFIELD, Mass. Whether it be for life or death, do your own work well. Those who know Hattie will agree that this is the motto she works by. She is always striving to get up a little higher. Hattie came to Normal with the class of 1917, but instead of continuing with them she taught a year and returned to be a Senior with us, thus giving us the pleasure of her friendship. It may not be necessary to say that Hattie was graduated from the Northfield Seminary, and I am sure if you ask her she could tell you all you would care to know about the school at Mt. Hermon. Hattie's favorite expression- Nuttin doin. Hattie's delight-Her pockets. Favorite pastime-Dreaming of Camp Uptonl Her ambition-To go to College? Ziaarriet Zmenhlen NORTH ADAMS, Mnss. Only for a year has Harriet honored us by her presence, but in her short stay with us she has made many friends. Although she did not have the pleasure of having hygiene with Miss Skeele, who tells us that we should not button our coats up around our necks, she is a strong advocate of an open sweater or coat. Many a day this winter have we seen her with her coat open, and she has made us shiver to look at her. Harriet's favorite pastime is skating. Every day, when the ice was good, found her either at Orr's or Young's skating rink, where her fancy skating brought praise from all who saw her. We have heard that she has become interested in Bonds, Liberty or otherwise. Qlibristine Elisa imunmn NORTH ADAMS, Mass. A friendly girl is Christine. She is always ready to greet one with a pleasant smile and a cheery Good morning. We all welcome her sweet voice at chapel when she renders solos in such a charming way. Her favorite diversion outside of school is snow shoeing. As a student she has been zealous and ambitious in her work. May the best wishes of the class of 1918 follow her wherever she may go! 22

1918 NORMALOGUE. Zlrene Jfrancese Batters LEOMINSTEH, Mass. Here is the girl with the rosy cheeks and winning smile. But, alas! we must not forget to mention her laugh, which, both in school and in the dormitory, can be heard echoing thru the halls. Irene has studied diligently and enthusiasticallyg consequent- ly she has won the hearts of the faculty as well as those of the class. Although Irene has admitted that trains have agreed to disagree with her, we notice that she enjoys taking week-end trips to Greenfield once in a while. Irene prefers teaching in the upper grades, but we think that some day she may teach a kindergarten class of her own. We all wish her good luck and the best of success in whatever community she teaches this coming year. Qlhetta Map Z8itlmell CHARLEMONT, MAss. Th.ere's a deal of deviltry beneath that mild exterior. One would hardly believe this if he had seen 'Bick' just once, but-ask the 'dorm' girls about her. They know the meaning of that broad grin and of her twinkling eye. Bick likes the word 'teducationf' but surely she would give up all the rest of it for the first syllable. Much of her spare time is spent in knitting. For whom? The Red Cross of course. She is a splendid room-mate and a jolly, generous girl who is always ready to help anybody. Favorite expression: We should worry. Favorite pastime: Eating bananas. Chief ambition: To figure prominently in the future History of Ed. QEmilp llllpton Bissell WILMINGTON, VT. What do we have in lit. to-morrow? Oh, I can't remember, but just run in and ask f'Em. Whenever any of the dorm. girls can't remember, this is what happens and Em comes to the rescue and saves their lives. Is she always at work did you say? Well I should say not, for Em is ever ready for a good time. Since we entered the war many of her spare minutes are taken up by her correspondence with the army oflicers. She is greatly interested in history, especially Paul Jones' sea fight. Never mind Em, we know you will always be a success wherever you go. Favorite expression- Honest in truth. Favorite pastime-Singing CPD. Favorite ambition-To be a nurse Over There. 21

1918 NORMALOGUE Kenna Qfligahetb Burgner DAL'roN, MAss. For the past two years Leona has cheered the dorm with her jolly, good natured laugh. We have never seen her really ruffled or disturbed, and she is always ready to lend a helping hand. At a glance one might think she has been known to take several joy rides to parts unknown. As class treasurer she has guarded well our millions, and if our good wishes can bring her success, Lonie's future will be assured. btella Jllaghalene igutkahitg DEERFIELD, MASS. Our class has been stimulated by the presence of this young lady from South Deerfield. Her earnestness and versatility have won a name for her among us. However, we often wondered whether Stella was ever five minutes early for classes or meals. Her greatest ambition is to make herself of some great use in the world. We wish -her success in all her undertakings. Warp QEIi5ahetiJ ftlanahan DALTON, MAss. With eyes of blue, and hair of brown Comes Mary from old Dalton Town. Her gentle manner, winning way, Make us just love her more each day. A scream is heard on the third floor A mouse she sees behind the door, Cheer up, dear girl, we are right here And we will aid you, have no fear! So true a member of our class, Who would not aid you, winsome lass? Success and great good cheer let be The parting words from us to thee. 23
