24 A kg g NORMALOGUE ' 1 B i Y I .Q J ESSIE C. BARBER, Williamstown, Mass. Quips and cranks and wanton wiles, Nods and becks and wreathed smiles. I HIS quotation seems to fit Jess very well, for she is an extremely cheerful and fun-loving person. If you hear especially hilarious laughter during the noon hour, you may know that Jess is around. But she can be serious as well as gay. Oh, how clever she is! If she once starts out to do a thing you may be sure she will finish it. She has made a splendid Glee Club leader and we under- stand she is greatly interested in other Glee Clubs and in- cidentally C?j in their leadersf Perhaps, too, this is why, in the econlomics class, she was especially partial to Cthej Good-rich. We are sure Jess will make a splendid teacher and the best wishes of 1919 go with her. MILDRED R. BARTON, Greenfield, Mass. Laugh, and the world laughs with you 5 Weep, and you weep alone. ' IL seems to understand thoroughly this saying. We see frequent demonstrations of the former, While as for the latter-? After a few minutes conversation with Mil, you would discover that she comes from Greenfield, that she has many ideas on just as many subjects, that she loves to argue, preferably on the negative, regardless of the subject, and that she can be depended on to either in class, out of class, or at the table. She has not been Over There, as you might infer from her collection of war trophies, to appreciate which you should visit Room 21. However, she is merely saving valuable teaching material for young Americans. The future must hold much for Mil, -exactly what we cannot tell, so we say- Adieu, dear, amiable girl! Your heart can ne'er be wanting! May prudence, fortitude, and truth, Erect your brow undaunting! In ploughman phrase, God send you speed, Still daily to grow wiser, And maybe better reck the rede, Than ever did th' adviser!'! say the unusual thing

Why, just ask some of the Williamstown boys that have danced with her. Although Helena lives in Clarksburg, she never U5 misses a day at school. She is a very jolly girl and one can never make her angry. One look into those blue eyes of 'Lene's and- well, you can't describe the feeling that comes over you, so they say. Helena is very fond of Bills, We wonder which kind, and why. But Brown University has a stronger attraction for her, and often you will hear her wish that she might have a school near the University. g VERA G. ANDREWS Deerfield Mass There's no time to waste or lose Every moment you should use For the hours are gliding fast G HE Work this girl accomplishes in the course of a day is unbelievable. She greets each visitor ln the dorm she is hello girl , she isn t satisfied with taking the Kinder garten course alone, but adds to it the same amount of sewing the H.

-Ava- W -mst ILO R M ALQQ UE. MARION H. BLAIR, Williamstown, Mass. True worth is in being, not seeming. ARION came to us from that picturesque college town known to us all as Billtown. By her quiet and loving ways, she won our hearts during her first year at Normal. Although she is faithful to her studies, she never misses a good time. If there is fun to be had, Marion is sure to be an ardent leader of the group. We have heard that she has a liking for Bills . Perhaps this is one reason why she intends to teach in her home town in the fall. The best wishes of 1919 go with her, and we know that she will succeed. Work done. HELEN F. BROWN North Adams Mass 'I am constant as the northern star Of whose true fix d and resting quality There is no fellow in the firmament ' ELEN, who has ever been true to her classmates and 15 many friends, has won the love and esteem of all of them. Atlhough no one has been more Interested ln her lessons, she has never forgotten to inquire about the foreign mail.
