NORMALOGUE 1 21 'i GRACE R. BARBER, Williamstown, Mass. EIN 1902, during an age otherwise peaceful and be- nignant, it was rumored that some very unusual event has taken place in the Village Beautiful. Upon reading the newspapers we were enlightened that Grace R. Barber had been started on her earthly career. After a time, bya great effort, people succeeded in passing the crisis safely, not quite recovering however, for wasn't the world responsible for this little prairie flower? However, all thru her two years' course at Normal, Barb has proved herself capable of dispelling this cause of alarm, and responsibility, by proving herself a very independent young lady. She expresses her feelings and contributes suggestions with the utmost sincerity and cannot be counted aimong those who follow the crowd in this matter. Everyone realizes Barb's high rank in both scholar- ' ship and social affairs. She has been known to enter a class without even preparing her lesson and during class, rise and make an excellent recitation. Any how many times have we heard girls remark, My, but you 'toddle' justlikeafellow down home, give me the next dance. Also this classmate of ours is a member of the Glee Club. This affords good practice for her as we know she will continue to sing her way thru life and with her good-nature and love of fun conquer every task she undertakes. Oh! yes, girls, she took the Domestic Science course. Use your imagination to answer why. ,lil--... MABEL GRACE CHQITTIM, Easthampton, Mass. She is a maid of artless grace, Gentle in form and fair of face. ABEL is one of the few girls whose contagious laugh, ready wit, and willingness to help others, have made her popular with the girls and the faculty. She has Worked hard for the class by serving on many committees, and by eating innumerable chocolate bars and lolly-pops. We know it was her desire to help the class that urged her to buy so much candy! In athletics Mabel has showed her skill, for she is right there when it comes to shooting a basket or inter- preting the various exercises in our gym notes. She has always been a favorite at our social times, particularly our man dances, and never has had any trouble in enticing one of the opposite sex to venture Within our halls. Of course, Mabel will be true to her Alma Mater and Will teach for a year at least, but after that-maybe we had better wait and see.

,O NORMALOGUE JOSEPHINE STUART ADAMS, Adams, Mass. Greeting each new day in her own happy way, With a merry look and a carefree way, Gnward she goes with a heart so gay. UCH is Jo who with her good-natured smile and her happy-go-lucky manner has won her way into the hearts of all her classmates. Always ready and Wil- ling to enjoy a good time, she is especially enthusiastic over sports. Tennis and basketball are her favorites and indeed very few are superior to Jo in a good game of tennis. As she loves all out of doors and enjoys long tramps into the country, so, next year we can safely predict that Jo will secure a school in the country where she can enjoy nature to her heart's content. Whatever she does or wherever she goes the best Wishes of the class of 1921 will be with her. ANNA ARONSTEIN, North Adams, Mass. Strong as the ship that braves t-lie blast Upon a stormy seag Deep as the ocean's rippling tides, So shall our friendship be. NNA is a friend to everyone in class and surely this verse shows our appreciation of her attitude toward us. If you wish anyone to do you a favor, my advice would be, seek for Anna. She is one of our star athletes and, when there is to be a five pointer made, you will find Anna always there. Une of her strongest talents is selling tickets for which we all hold her in high esteem. The class of '21 wish you the finest possible luck.

YT' 22 NORMALOGUE ALICE V. COLLINS, South Lee, Mass. Beauty gives The features perfectness, and to the form It's delicate proportions, yet One glance of intellect Like stronger magic, will outshine it all. E thought Alice was very quiet and demure when she first came to the Normal School, but we changed our minds before we knew her very long. She is very, oh, so very fond of studying that she may be found at eleven o'clock at night bent over her books, blissfully unconscious of the passing hours. Alice hales from South Lee and graduated from Lee High School before she appeared at Normal. When she goes into the wide, Wide world as instructor of youth, we hope that she will teach in a place where there will be larks in CLarkinb the morning to spur her on to her - B I future tasks. MILDRED A. CONNORS, Adams, Mass. And welcome wheresoe'er she went A calm and graceful, element. SUCH is Mildred, one of our Adams girls.
