CLIFFORD FRANCES MURPHY December 30, 1902 New Britain, Conn. Let's make merry today and let tomorrow come as it will. Every word in the above quotation applies to Murph in its true sense. He believes in looking on the bright side of life all the time. We think his hobby is strolling up to the North End of the town Sunday nights-we wonder why? GENEVIEVE HAMILTON HGenl! October 21, 1903 Baltimore, Md. Given lo Hospitality. Yes, Gen surely has plenty of common sense and a good disposition to go with it. She is one of our quiet girls, but have you ever seen Gen when she didn't have a smile for you and was not ready to have a jolly good time? We all wish her the very best of good wishes for her future. MARY FEORE March 14, 1902 New Britain, Conn. A slenographer of no mean ability. Mary has made a specialty of stenography and has used it extensively in Civics. We wish we could find out how she does it. Outside of stenography she shines in Commercial Law under Professor J. C. Moody. Civics Clubg Athletic Association. MABEL O'MEARA February 11, 1900 New Britain, Conn. I am sure care's an enemy to life. Mabel believes in the old saying, Never trouble trouble until trouble troubles you. School seems to be the least of her troubles. Mabel certainly does not worry about getting to school-arriving any time before 9.30 suits her perfectly. We are glad she belongs to the class of 1920 and know she will be a success at office work next year. 24

RAYMOND PULVER October 5, 1903 New Britain, Conn. He reads murh, he is a great observer, and he looks quite thru the deeds of men. Ray joined the class of 1920 at the outset of the Junior year. His appearance does not in any way check the apprecia- tion that he will complete his High School days with the class of 1920. Ray is a quiet, studious and ambitious young man and all who know him count his friendship priceless. Civics Club. LILLIAN ENGLISH Jan r ua y 20, 1902 New Britain, Conn. Her talk is like rt steam engine. Altho' Lillian is rather modest and tranquil, she forgets herself when reciting in class and a burst of winged words come forth. Lillian is a very friendly girl and will make her way in the world without a doubt as a competent stenographer. Civics Club. MARION MEEHAN February 19, 1903 New Britain, Conn. Little, but oh my! Mattie may be little but she certainly is not inconspic- uous, for she can easily be heard at all times. Perhaps that is why she left Room 303. We hear that she is very fond of that popular song DardaQnella. Marion plans to enter the business world next year where we are sure she will be a great success. Civics Club. RUTH IGOE October 14, 1901 New Britain, Conn. Deliver me from the opposite sex. Ruth is rather quiet and shy at first but not so when known. Ruth has been working mornings most of the time and therefore we don't know much about her. Whenever there is a special time schedule, Ruth makes a grand dive for the nearest theatre and there employs her time. Y. W. A. A.: Civics Club. 23

EDWARD J. OWEN ileptember 24, 1901 Springfield, Mass- Linked sweetness, lung drawn out. 'Tis true. Eddie is about the longest thing on the skyline when standing erect. As a soldier he has been unsurpassed and because of his merits was awarded the position of Major. His name shall go down in the annals of the school as the first soldier to dance to a funeral march.

BERNADOTTE ANNA CONLIN May 7, 1902 New Britain, Conn. I don't bother work and work don'l bolher me. Although Bern doesn't crave work, she surely adores an afternoon tete a tete. Bern is said to be somewhat-yea, until you know her. Bernadotte is one who takes life easy, but by her generous nature she has made many friends who see success for her in the future. Y. W. A. A.3 Civics Clubg Aloha Club: Junior Prom Committee. VICTORIA ADAMS July 7, 1902 Uromia, Persia O,Hiviaus, innocent, sincere. Victoria is surely one of our senior girls and is very enthus- iastic in all that she undertakes. She has proved to be an excellent student and a credit to the school. Victoria being always good-natured will never be refused a welcome. RUTH H. ANDERSON lKRum'elY July 1, 1903 Kensington, Conn. Doubtless she stood before the mullitude And spoke words ne'er heard before. A philosopher of the first magnitude. Quiet on the out- side but within, streams of thought rush to and fro. Those who have had the privilege of hearing her in the seclusion of Room 21, where she discusses the different subjects, feel sure that she will make good in whatever she does. She is jolly, good company wherever you meet her. Household Arts Club. 25
