THE AXIS M ,fi Mas. THERZA VAN E'r'rr:N A friend indeed, Has Mrs. Van proved To the elass of '22 Who into the world Are now about to move. Oh, Mrs. Van! may we do this, or may we do that? is a phrase eonstantly heard at the dormitory, -- and did she ever refuse? Never! She has truly been a Mother Van to eat-h and everyone of us and we are grateful to her from the bottom of our hearts. She has served as Mother to the girls of 'l'at-onie Ilall for several years and we sineerely hope that she v.ill be here many years to eome to guide other foot-steps aright. sh Miss Evrzus ALLYN Miss Allyn, dearly beloved by every member of the Class of '22, was with us only a year and a half having left us in the middle of our Senior year to aeeept a more responsi- ble bosition elsewhere. She was a very busy lady, earry- ing on the secretarial work eonnet-ted with the corres- pondent-e department, but she was never too busy to give a eheery word of greeting and a pleasant smile and some- times, when she was not too rushed, we extended our business in the work-roonv perhaps breaking the points of our pencils or the like ein order to have a little 4-hat with this friend of ours. As we begin our new eareers we wish her all sueeess and happiness in her's.

THE AXIS fre ' ,.,. , Miss FANNIE A. BISHOP Our Miss Bishop has not been with us long but is there anyone who does not remember the little lady with the kind, smiling face?-the lady whom the little children of the Kindergarten adore, and whom we all look upon with respect. Her loving ways have endeared her to all who have worked with her or been connected with her in any way. still more in the years to come. Miss MARION E. FEELEY There she goes! You can only get a glimpse of her for she's a very busy person. Everyone knows Miss Feeley by her gracious smile and her snappy Walk as she hurries thru the corridors. Pittsfield presented us with Miss Feeley to take charge of the correspondence courses in September, but this was not her first appearance here for she is proud to say that she is a graduate of North Adams Normal. In Psychology classes, the Seniors have found her a walk- ing encyclopedia for she's always ready with an answer for every question. With such qualities, Miss Feeley is sure to be a success in life and our wishes for happiness and prosperity go with her. Although success has already been gained we wish her Miss OLIVE DAVIS Happy, thrice happyg every one Who sees his labor well begun And nol perplexed and mulliplied By idly wailing for wind and tide. Miss Davis came to us as Miss Allyn's successor in the middle of our Snior year and, though we have known her but a short time, she has already won her way into our hearts. Whenever we enter the work-room, she greets us with a happy smile which cheers us for the tasks of the day. We wish our new-found friend the best of success in the years to come.

THE CLASS OF 1922 HEI EN B,xRRows Dorset, Vt. lI'il11 pleasant manner, a frinzd most true, Very rica!-off flrrssrfl in blue: Herr' she ccmc from lm' nalirc slate, To gain a slorc of lrnozrlzdgr yrcal. ls Always modest and unas- ' suming, Helen Barrows has - gained a place in the life of each of her companions which will always remain her own. Generous, helpful and obliging, she shows that her previous teaching experience is but a stepping-stone to the things she will do in the future. The Class of '22 wishes her all manner of success. MARION BENCE Pittsfield, Mass. One of tlzr grrafcsl gifts of lzcaren -good-srnsc, Is possfssrd by our Marion Hence. Doesn't this describe our quiet, dignified Marion to a T ? And yet when one really knows her, she is just as jolly as the next one! Marion has been with us only this year, but we think as 1 . much of her now, as we do of those who have been with us always. Where-e'er she goes, her quiet, self-reliance will gain respect and success for her. M. VIVlAN BERRY Greenfield, Mass. A very gentle lzrarl and a goarl conscience. By her work as Class Secre- tary and President ofthe House Council, Vivian has demon- strated that industrious girls come from Greenfield. Never- the-less, she has never been in the least averse to any good time that might come her way. The class of 1922 wishes her . great Success- GRACE BOYDFN A lowly dark-hairrd maiden! lVl1osr days are calmly spent, H111 1012011 once you get her started O11 wild fun you'llf1'nd hrr bent. Grace joined us from the . sunny hills of Conway, that town in Franklin County, whose praises she is always singing. The sunshine of her native town has entered into her disposition and enabled her to greet us even on a dis- agreeable morning, with a cheery smile. As quiet as a mouse, at school, but at home-Oh My! , , A . . - MILDRED A. BOYLE Hatfield, Mass. May your joys be as deep as the ocean, Your troubles as light as its foam. If all the folks in Hatfield are like Milly, we feel it would be a nice place in which to live. Very little noise was credited to her while she was living in 37 and her lovely dignity has been an example for us all. Although Mildred does not enjoy participating in the more strenuous sports, yet '22 has always found her a loyal rooter at our games. We feel that a literary career will claim this classmate some day, but whatever she undertakes, will be noble and successful. tw . ' 7 MARGARET RITA BRENNAN Bradstreet, Mass. None knew her but to love her, for she made pleasure a business and business a pleas- ure. Up from Bradstreet to our Normal-what a career! Pep and popularity were her pass- ports, and fun, her reward. Peggy was invariably up to l mischief, an d her naughty twinkle usually gave her away in the midst of some prank, midnight spread, or basketball game. We're sorry Peg was unable to finish the year with us, for she is an honest-to-goodness, all-round sport. i. -
