Page Fourteen M ETA MARY E. BURNETT “Still waters run deep.” Silence — a long pause — and then more silence. Correct, it’s Mary Bur- nett. Although extremely quiet, we are not at all concerned about Mai ' y’s future for she has done her work so well that we are expecting much from her in future days. Good luck, Mary. GERTRUDE T. BUTLER “Her sunny locks hang on her temples like golden fleece.” In her one year at P. H. S. Gert’s bright and sparkling blue eyes and her hair of purest gold, which frames her face like a halo, made her a most attractive person indeed, a prime favorite with all her classmates. Where her infectious giggle is heard, there will be fun in abundance. ’Twouhl be superfluous to wish suc- cess to one so richly endowed with the gifts that are bound to bring to her a high position in life. MARY E. BUXTON “Show your wisdom, daughter, in your close patience.” WOMAN’S CLUB FRENCH CLUB LUNCH COUNTER AGORA A slender little girl with a cheery smile ever lighting up a happy coun- tenance, Mary has certainly captured our hearts. To minister to the sick is Mary’s ambition in life and we can- not help congratulate the fortunate ones who will be nursed back to health under the charming care of nurse Mary.

MAID A L. BECKETT What sweet delight a quiet life affords.” FRENCH CLUB WOMAN’S CLUB Maida has gone through the five years in her quiet and tranquil way, her modest and aimiable nature win- ning for her the esteem of all her classmates. An accomplished pianist and organist, Maida intends to con- tinue her studies at the New England Conservatory of Music. We wish you bon voyage in your course through life. MARY E. BESTON Virtue is like a rich stone.” SPANISH CLUB WOMAN’S CLUB Mary is one of our commercial scholars who are aspiring to one day becoming “stenogs.” We have heal ' d much of noiseless typewriters and we will soon be able to introduce the noiseless typist for Mai - y is indeed a quiet miss. This quality of doing, not saying, will help her throughout life. EVELYN BOISCLIAIR Speech is silver, silence is gold.” Evelyn is one of the quiet students of the class and yet when one knows her she is found to be full of fun and ready for a good laugh. We do not know what Evelyn will do after grad- uation, in fact she has not made up her mind. Whatever she undertakes, however, we feel confident she will win success.

21 E T A Page Fifteen EDYTHE D. CASTLE J. WESLEY CHADDER MARY P. CHEBATOR “And thou, thou makest the sad heart gay. OBSERVER STAFF FRENCH CLUB META STAFF WOMAN ' S CLUB That happy little girl who runs about the corridors stopping here and there to chat is “Edie.” She is well liked by both girls and boys and is known to all as a keen lover of fun and frolic. Her friendly qualities make her an ideal pal for everyone. “He alone has energy who cannot be de- prived of it.” TRAFFIC SQUAD FRENCH CLUB Do you know “Wes,” the go-getter? Who doesn’t? “Red” has made a rep- utation around these parts as a very persuasive and convincing salesman. They tell us that he is a real business man during the day but after business hours — “Wes” and his flivver — well, they go places. “Modesty seldom resides in a breast that is not enriched with noble virtues.” A quiet, unassuming young lady is the one we now meet, one who is ac- curate and efficient in all of her school work. Although not active in class projects she has made and con- tinues to keep a large number of friends who will always wish her true success in whatever she may attempt.
