TUSITALA GEORGE EDWARD BRIEN He smiles so when one's fright, And when one's wrong he smiles still more. Some people have misjudged George as a pessimist and he comes on our bal- lot as the second choice for pessimist, but don't believe it. George had a grin as contagious as the measles and his friends know that his cheerful nature chased away gloom as old lady Dutch Cleanser chases dirt. George was some classy little debater, too, and maybe it was because he argued so well on dark subjects that he was called a pessimist. KATHERINE JEAN BRODERICK A little nonsense -now and then Is relished by the best of men. . Kaddy always had a smile on her face and she cheerfully admitted that she didn't know what a frown was! She was on the Junior Dance Committee, the Honor Roll, and the Senior Council. We suspect that the candy sold at Mar- cheta got a lot of its sweetness from ccKaddy-rx HERBERT MILTON BROWN Exhansting thought, And living wisdom with each studious year. ' For Herbert was a student! He would devour knowledge. Often when every- one else in the class had failed, Herbert get up and gave a three-minute recita- tion. No wonder that he ranked fourth in the Upper Third. That he was enthu- siastic over other things besides lessons, was shown by his being in the Glee Club one year.

TUSITALA FLORENCE BAYRUTT Our young and gentle friend, whose smile made brighter many oleaol school hours. Flips was a favorite in Room 5. She proved to be merry at all times, never frowning, laughing the hours' away. 'Member what a shark she was in his- tory? It goes without saying that she was in the Upper Third. She also helped to make the Senior Play a success and was an Assistant Editor of the Class Book. Flips retained evidences of a pleasant kind of tom-boyishness. A MARGARET AME:s BEARSE There's a day of April in her heart. Margaret's middle name should have been versatile, for whether it was sing- ing, dancing, acting, writing, or playing basketball, she was always a success. Why go into detail when this list of ac- tivities, shows what a place she held in N. H. Sf? Girls' Basketball Team Ig Tattler Reporter Ilg Glee Club II, H13 Sophomore Ring Committee II, Vice- President IIIg School Notes Editor IVg Senior Play IV, 4'Marcheta g Prophetess IVg Upper Third. PRISCILLA GRACE BOYD Good manners and soft words Bring many a difficult thing to pass. Priscilla could not be heard amid a crash or tumult, but her very quietness was distinctive. She sang in the Glee Clubs for the Athletic Association, and was noted for her artistic work, an at- tractive cover of the Tattler being one of the products of her ability. Of course she was in the Upper Third. When all was right with Priscilla, no one will for- get her happy face and good comrade- ship.

TUSITALA HORACE CLIFFORD BROWN He who seeks the mrindis improvement Aids the world in aiding mind. If ever you felt down-hearted, Horace was a good cure. He was clever and bright in his speech and yet dignified, as shown by his good portrayal of i'Mr. Johns in the Senior Play and of the Duke in Marcheta. He will always re- main prominent in our minds as the Edi- tor of the Class Book. He proved his musical ability by singing in the Boys' Glee Club II and III. An argument on politics was never complete without his opinion. He was studious, too, as his be- ing on the Honor Roll showed. BURTON LYLE BRUCE His muscles were like iron bands. At least, that is what the man opposite him in a football game must have thought, during the three years that Bert ' earned his letters. He was a mainstay on the Track Team II, III, and IV. Senior year the Athletic Council was not satisfied with his being just a member so they made him president. One of Bert s greatest pleasures was get- ting out of English. class fifteen minutes early in order to get to his lunch counter duties on time. But of course this was compensated by his losing half of recess, serving ravenous students. ELIZABETH BRYANT , She speaks, behaves, and acts just as she' ofaghtf' Betty was a perfect little lady, in every sense of the word, whose smiling countenance and merry repartee made her presence a pleasure to all concerned. She twanged on her mandolin in the Mandolin Club IV, and also helped make The Charm School and Marcheta a success. Her abilities as a reporter as- sisted the Tattlefr IV, she worked eii'i- ciently as Class Book Paragrapher, and withal maintained high rank on the Honor Roll.
