ANNETTE EMMA KING 738 Broadway SOUTH BOSTON, MASS. Annette possesses that enviable quality of accepting tests with a coolness that would put a penguin to shame.

FRANCESCA PHYLLIS LANE 7 Scmout Road l7ORClIliS'I'1iR, Nl.-XSS. Never judge a book by its cover. Il' one were to judge by appearances, one would instantly imagine 'Sesca to be a very serious, studious and quiet little person, but quite the contrary. Her scholastic duties cannot be said to occupy her titne and thought ex- clusively. She always has a witty remark appropriate to the occasion, and also a smile and greeting for all who cross her path.

You would scarcely think that we have known Muriel but three short years, for her pleasing manner won us so quickly it would seem we knew her a life- time.

CATHERINE ESTHER MCDERMOTT tio Belford Street IJORCHESTER. MASS. 'fKatie, as we affectionately know her, is devoted to literature of the mysterious nature. lt is the pinnacle of enjoyment to her to unravel the complications in the mystery before she reaches the aut.hor's solution. But Catherine is no problem herself, for her amiable, lackadaisical good nature is quickly evident to all with whom she comes in contact. Her themes, with their most appropriate character sketches, have afforded us many pleasant memories. Good luck to this most valuable friend and colleague. MARY ELIZABETH Mc-DONOUGH A 28 llt'o:ttlwtly I.YNNl llil.lJ, MASS. Quiet and retiring can partially describe this miss, but in addition, she is a living example of true Catholic youth and girlhood. The virtue of patience she possesses in abundance as well as a strong will and character. X'Vhatever you do, do with your might, things done by halves are never done right. This phrase seems to be her watch-word and by-word, for if she cannot do a thing right and thoroughly. she will not. do it. at all. Such determination is hound to succeed in the world. DOROTHY RUTH Mc-ELI-IINEY 22 O'Callaghan XVay SOVTH BOSTON, MASS. Knock and it shall be opened to you. So Dorothy knocked and we flung wide the portals of our hearts to welcome her, for who would not welcome such as she. She has traveled the sequestered vale of her life, avoiding the limelight but doing all she could to help others. XVe hope life will be good to her granting her peace and happiness in her chosen path. She would ask no more. 1940 lf Fl ,L ,,- 'V .Ill .. Q ' x t l.l4Jl ff ,Q .GN ,Eff X-'Q i l ' f
