8 THE CLARION Geraldine Davis -enitnustls 'to Doxvolthy Rines and Miuriel Todd her reoelss time prornenades., These daily walks will be good for your healitlh, girls, sro dom't neglect them.. Doris S-ykes generously leaves to Elizabeth Snyder her frequlem rides 'to and from soluool. If you gain any ex- tra time ni iihils way, yovu mlighlt help some less florvtlurnalte classmate with the day s Math als'sign'meen't, sinlce you are slune to know it yourself. Jessie Coleman bestow-S her 'mlodlel behavior and orderly 'ways ufpon Ru-th Yeaton. You will never have to look twice for a book, Rurth, for Jletssiels gift wrill helfp you to keep your desk always perfectly arranged. Certainly a very praiseworthy and useful virtue. Annie Mil'ler ,th-i.n'k's that hair ribibons' do not beoome the dignity of a High school graduate, so she lbequeaths them 'to Eva Brovick: while to Iona Drew she leaves her general exoelllence in all her studies. Upon Monica Farrar and Fannie Si-egal, Sarah Thovmals bestows her air of Parisian style. Helen Call and Bessie Cohen be- queath 'their love of dancing and tlmeir knowledge of tfhe latest steps to Cath- erine Moran, Helen Brouillete and Frances Dwyer. Vivian Jenness leaves to Arthur Parsons the hionlor of represerrtling his native town in the Senior class. To Bernard Hawkins. Katherine Lyons 'wills her low,soft voice. Sylvia Stelrling leaves to John Louaghlin her loptimistic disposition and sense of hulmorg but remember, John, too much levity in class is in- excusalble. Virginia Barton and Dorothy Neiwick give ith-eir nealt coifflures and irre- proaohable Marcellls to Helen Mee- gan, Rutlh 'Dwomlbly and Delta Vifard. We wonder if Molly Brown ever wished to be taQl'l? If so, her desire is finally gratified for Marion VVillia1ms leaves her a generous pfortioln of Th-er heigh-tl. We wfonft know you in a year from noiw, Molly. Edith Pearson regretfully bestows upon Eleanor Jones her extensivt wardrolbe. You're a lu-oky girl, Elean- or, for you will always be provided with the newest thing in th-e way of clothes. We wonder if David Rockman would like to be an artist. It is quite pos- sible since to him Robert Marvin leaves his Well known cle-verness in drawing apt and appropriate cartoons. To Willie White, George Flanilgvan leaves his unfortunate habit 'of ap- p-earinlg breathllessly in his home room at 8.16. Please live ugp to this habit as faithfully as George has. Louise Sheppard has fbeen well re- membered. Ulpon her Doris Eaton be- stows her .sltufdiolusl habits and faith- fulness in preparing ass-ilgnments. Eileene Woods enldlovws Pauline Tay- lor 'with her literary albility. Now, Pauline, you may choose between the careens of vauwthfores-s and actress. No longer with Mildred Phil'brick's countless and unelxzpeoted questions in class go uruanlswered, for Claenlce Redden genlerouslfy leaves to her his large stolclk of infallible answers. Jennie C'o'hren and Mary Seigel need nevelr go hlunlgrv at recess n'eX't Year, for Sadie Miller ,generously leaevs them her own supply of lunches or the means of procuring them David Hartwell lbestows upon Eu- gene Hunter his drairnaitic talent, This unselfishnes-s of David's may sometime help yfou to belcolmle quite distin'guiish'ed. Edwin Mitchell kindly gives to John Mooney anfd Gordon Pridham fthe priceless privilege of Whispering when- ever th-ey choose, and allso the art of consuming a great deal of time in ris- ing to answer a question. This last is very useful, for by -the time you are ready to give your answer, the teach- er's thoughts are quilts aiolt to- be on the next question, so your remarks wilfl pass sulcdcesstlully. Rita Marston bestows upon Arthur Vveeks her quietness and lg-enlepal good

Cathleen Meloon will be a great help to Mr. Bilubiruek next year for Eto her Laura Marshall has donsented ot leave her skill in ,piano playing. She wished that she could also give you a piano which would Wofrthily demonlswtrate your tal-ent. To Hilda Fife, Helen Colbath leaves her luxuriant hair. Don't worry if the colors donit balend well, Hilda: Helen's intentions were good. Charlie Norton, with iruclh sadness' and regret, leavs to Kenneth MlclDon- ough, the privilege of paying athen- tiofns to a centain Juinior. We hoipe Kenneth realizes what an honor is his.

John Regan 1-eaves his mrusiical tal- ent and an opportunity to play in the school orchestra to Arnold Bfenry and Esther McDonald. We expect to have a truly remarkable orchestra. To Alice Boley and Louise Quirk, Edith O'Brien leaves her lady-like ways and becoming dignity. These gifts will be of great help in behaving in the serious -and dignified manner of Seniors which you will Uooth be next year. Jeanette Quinn presents to Virginia Aichel her en'thus'iasm for school and its ac'tiviti'es, with fthe earnest desire that Virginia ,gratefully use 'and ne- merrtber her kindness. Leo Bridges ,grudgingly 'bestows uAp'on Harold ,Bridle 't1w'o perfectly who-le glass 'nest-ltu'bes which have act- ualy survivied the havoc Wro'u'g'l'lt by many 2che'm penilods. Pe'rh'a:ps they have been stremgitihiened by their ex- perience, but nevertheless we ibeg you to use th-elm with dzue caiution and gem- tlenesfs. To Marjory Pray, Mary Thomas leaves her ceasleless agotivity at recess, and hier ready laughter at any J0'k6 or incident that even remotely de- serves it. Burnham has discovered-and inci- dIe.n'Ual1ly made 'ulse of-a lotison that is albsollutely guaranlteed to make la-HY 1'1'1lU'Slf.8.Ch19 of whatever size our collor ad- hlere firmlly for any length of time.

THE CLARION 9 behavior in class. Too bad yofu cou'l'dn't have had thiis useful gift to use in lf'hysi'c,s Lab this year, Arthur. Teresa Cinowlley conlfers upon Pearl Berry and Muriel Belichier hier ever ready .smiles and gigigrles. If your teachers dionlit appreciate your use of these gifts, your claslslmates will, so do'n t feel bandlly. Marion Thormgplsofn leaves to Annie Craig her constant good nature and unrulffled disposition. Donft let triflles like unprepared lessons worry you Annie-take it from Marion--it doesn t Day- Alice McWilliams submits to Reg- inald Trafton her American History note-book along with the brilliant re- citations that accompany it. Next year you will appreciate this gift a great deal more, for while your class-mates are feverishly making out notes, you will be at liberty to enjoy yourself. Alice leaves her remarkable ability to make good recitations and to receive reports consistently decorated with whole rows of A's to Inez McNabb, Margaret Leary, and Madeline Wes- selhoeft. You girls will be establish- ing scholarship records, but remember to be grateful to Alice for her thought fulness. Marjorie Dockharn confers upon Eu- nice James her numerous navy blouses on the one condition that Eunice will wear them with the hem turned up to show the inscriptions to good ad- vantage. Earl MacDonald sadly surrenders to Benton Hoyt his popularity with the feminine members of P. H. S. We should advise you to learn to dance, Benton, as Earl has been very success ful in this line. Burnham Averill bestows upon Fannie Halprin his efficiency as a basket ball player, and to May Hart- well he reluctantly leaves his recently discovered dramatic abilities. Wyatt Wendell, with a great deal of regret, leaves to Vincent Amazeen his fondness for walking-especially with an agreeable companion of the oppos- ite sex. Vincent certainly is a favored person if he uses Wyatt's kind remem- brance well. John Power will have many spare minutes to amuse himself and his class-mates during chem lab next year, for Joseph Constantino has un- selfishly consented to bequeath to him fifty chemical experiments-each and every one corrected, and stamped with the coveted O. K. Maurice Kuchinsky bestows upon George Benjamin his incomparable French accent. Your teachers will doubtless regard you with wonder George, but we daresay you'll become used to it in time. Martha Fraser gives up all claim to her admirers in Rye in favor of Ruth Sides and Gertrude Weeks. It is a dis- advantage to have them live at such a distance, but then there are times when time and space make very little difference. Alice Goodwin confers upon Flossie Moore and Philena Morton the happy privilege of talking to their hearts' content during study-periods. But be careful, girls, or you will suffer the attendant punishment-that of lonely and sorrowful isolation from your class mates. Rose Sable and Fannie Sharansky have agreed to give to Emily Dame their combined sets of English notes. If you have little to do in class period next year, you may attempt some poetry, as Rose has also entrusted to you her ambitions in regard to that pursuit. Bernice Brown and Cecilia Murphy will their boisterous ways and dis- orderly conduct to Marjorie Evering- ham and Julia Cohen. John Fullam, leaves to James Sacco his infallible knowledge of correct so- cial prncedure. on any occasion re-Q quiring an intimate acquaintance with the rules and regulations of formal etiquette. ,May Walsh has decided to leave to
