She can claim laurels from many fields, including athletics. Respect and iealty have been her due from all with whom she has come in contact. Her personality and good will will be sorely missed when the Class of '40 passes on. Sheazie carries with her the fervent wishes ol' all her compeers that her dreams may come true. MARY THERESA SILK gy l.inbt'ook Road l.YNNl IliI.lD, MASS. From Lynnfield this year came a new addition to our class in the person of Mary Silk. Her deep and vibrant alto voice has struck our musical fancy. Lik- ing a good time, Mary enjoys her boarders' holidays and recreation periods to their fullest extent. Her genial and compromising manner has made her com- pany most pleasing and agreeable. NVC have known her but a year, and yet in that time we have become excellent friends. RUTH PATRICIA SULLIVAN 321: Lu Grange Street WEST ROXBVRY, MASS. This girl ol the twinkling toes, so remarkably skilled in the terpsichorean art, has danced herself a highway into our memories. 'l'ruly she is a favorite of Fortune for her skill is quite superior. But the fruits of a successful ambition have not turned her head, nor has deserving praise made her proud. Ruth has no love of such trifling things. She is preparing for a brilliant futureg we herald its aurora. l'12l i H he Mount

ARTICLE I To the Sisters, in deepest gratitude for their untiring labor on our behalf, in sincere appreciation for the light of truth, honor and love which they have enkindled in our hearts and in fervent testimony of the ideals with which they have inspired us, we pledge a steadfast devotion and staunch loyalty that will grow and ripen in the harvest of years. ARTICLE Il To the juniors, we willingly surrender the nerve-racking anticipation of the C. U. exams, but to counteract this disheartening prospect, we also leave them the opulent treasure of all our fond and happy memories of M. S. A. To the Sophoinores, we leave our unwavering school and class spirit with which they may inoculate their oncoming sister class by the latest stream-lined process. To the Freshmen, we relinquish our unbroken silence in the corridors, which was always the pinnacle of perfection, the epitome of edification and a source of inspiration to all. ARTICLE III 1.
