TUSITALA GERTRUDE' COHEN Of all those arts in which the wise excel, N aturefs chief masterpiece is writing well, Gertrude has made a name for herself not only in the literary world of N. I-I. S., where she certainly did shine as As- sociate Editor of the Tattler, but also in dramatics, especially in The Charm School. She was usually quiet, but we found she did have a keen sense of hu- mor, even if the joke was on herself. ANNA MAE COLLINS But the sure traveler Though she alights sometimes, still goeth on. Anna was so quiet that we cannot say much about her. We did notice, though, that she had a great habit of sharpening her pencils in the morning so that we knew she had stopped studying for just a few minutes. FRANK HERMAN CONNELL The winds afrwl waves are always OWL the siole of the ablestf' So let it be with Tacks. Although he never seemed to study hard, he must have accomplished much in his quiet way,- for like Abou Ben Adam's, his name led the rest on the A and B List, especially III and IV. . He acted like a veteran in the part of one of the twins, in the Senior Play. He helped make the Tat- tler the fine paper it was senior year by assuming the heavy duties of Advertis- ing Mfanager. He was elected to write prophecies for the Class Book, and he also won his letter in Baseball III.

TUSITALA i ERNEST J OISEPH CHALIFOUX My tongue within my lips I rein, For who talks much must talk in vain. Ernie did not join us till our Sopho- more year, but when he did he made the class sharks hustle to keep their places, and certainly earned his place in the Upper Third. He never said a great deal but his mind was very active and he said something when he did speak. His pet annoyance was a contrary lock of hair on his cranium and if one hap- pened to catch him unawares, he might be found slicking it down. ALICE ADRIEINNE CHAMBERLAIN Dreams, books, are each ci world. At least they were to Alice. She was both a great dreamer and a book reader, and the result was she was a good stu- dent, who certainly deserved her place on the Honor Roll. Alice only came here her Junior year, but after she became ac- quainted with the ways of N. H. S., we found out what a good sport she was. She was in the Alpha Debating Society III, Tattler Typist IV, and was in the chorus of lVIarcheta. PHYLLIS EVELYN CLEMENT Of softest manners, unayfected mind, Lover of peace, and friend of human kind. Phyllis was the most peaceable person in Room 5. One never could get her into an argument. She was feminine to the finger tips and in the play, Marcheta, she showed us what a pretty bridesmaid she could be,-too charming, in fact, 'to be wasted on a theatrical.

TUSITALA WILLIAM SEYMOUR Cook A few strong instincts, and a few plain rules. Bill was an easy-going sort of a fel- low Who, because of his strong instincts and plain rules, made many friends in school and outside. He was always ready for a good time and had many of them during his four years in N. H. S. He was a gypsy in Marcheta. W J AMES PEASILEE CUMMINGS What ho! Another radio fan. It was Jim's love for mechanical work that led him to commute daily from Man- chester to N. H. S. He was among the first members of '24 to own a radio out- fit, and to report every morning what stations he had obtained the night be- fore. He was quick to make friends, and a willing worker' on the Football Squad III. We expect him- to be as great an inventor as De Forest or Wohl. DORIS MAUDE CURTICEY To doubt her pnreness were to want a ' heart. It is not only those who are noisy that help make the World brighter, but the quiet ones, too. Doris was one of the latter. Sympathetic and jolly, she went through high school with us. Though she was naturally quiet, her voice was heard many times, as in the Glee Club.
