Velda will never forget being accused as a freshman of tear- ing paper and scattering it in the aisle. The teacher must have been ignorant of her housewifely talents, for she has had to mix home work and lessons for many years. Just think, here is a dam- sel who says she dislikes the movies. But she is always present at a game and it's no secret that she prefers the Hardwick and Mont- pelier teams. Nevertheless, her interest is somewhere in Spauld- ing. Tall, dark haired men are her idols. We have found out why she looks before she leaps around the cornerseshe has had several narrow escapes. Velda says therefs nothing like trying and her one ambition is to try to be a teacher. HELEN ELSIE BARTLETT Commercial Course Plainfield, Vt. Athletic Association 145 Benevolent, alert, truthful. 1 Helen Bartlett came to Spaulding after two very successful years at Plainfield Junior High School, where she was a leader both in social affairs and in scholarship. Helen is the kind of a girl that gets on in the worldg she is always in a pleasant humor, always ready to render assistance. Among her likes and dislikes are danc- ing and washing dishes. Helen says that she would rather mow the lawn than do either of these. She likes baseball, reading, hik- ing, and riding fautomobile or horse rakej Helen thinks she would like to become a teacher. Whatever she undertakes, her diligence and ability, coupled with her admirable disposition, are sure to win her a high place. 7 4 A- A H it V , V . g Q, .

A brown-curled maiden, a squeak, a facial contortion, a start- ling grimace, a wide smile revealing a dimple, a rush of pictur- esque words-hold it l Marion is before you, her most light heart- ed vivacious self. Marion has a passion for art and exceptional ability in the vocation of her choice. What would Our Echo have been had we not had Marion to adorn it for us? Her trips to Co- lumbus and Pinehurst must have been marvelous. We take her word for it, anyway. She tells us she likes people and attention and we think that she has a lot of both. We have often envied her thrilling trips to Northfield. All in all, she's a jolly good sport, al- ways ready for fung an active, cheerful classmate.

Her sister has been her pal and Montpelier her rendez- vous so that we have seen little of her. As a sophomore, she ac- quainted us with the boyish bob which she admits was comfortable, but that it was very uncomfortable to be stared at. So Helen again took the initiative, grew her hair long, and was one of the first to do hers up. Introducing slave necklaces and dog collars, she has been recognized as the authority for the latest in all that's style. Next year she's going to teach New York Art a few things. T Al

Rena just loves music and playing the piano. She has quite a bit of talent in playing and can entertain you with any kind of clas- sical mrsic. ln school she knows how to mind her own business since she dislikes inquisitive people. Her work is always neatly done, she's never late, her promises are always kept. She has not acquired the l-oriowing habit. She hates publicity. One never hears her giggling promiscuously to attract attention. Billie en- joys doing bookkeeping, shorthand, and typewriting. She has ex- celled in speed. Her chief ambition is to become a stenographer. Oflcourse, she would like to -continue studying music-perhaps she wi .

Pep has been the stop and go signal of this girl's life. Her early years were spent in the rather exciting pursuit of a tomboy's ca- reer. The result of this was manifest at the age of twelve when she developed into a she wild-Wester, second only to Daisy, the Girl with the Golden Curls from the Golden West, whom she saw on Saturdays at the movies and from whom fa secretj Alma got her stuff. During the seventh grade, influenced by many things-- including a little blond boy-our heroine reformed. Since her de- but in high school, Al has acquired many likes which run all the way from basketball to lemon sherbert and the Irish. And we're some proud of our All-Vermont forward!
