ROSEMARY ANNE DRUMMOND A peal of laughter and ‘a sudden rush from the stair- way.’ We became familiar early with these delightful por- tents, and grew to love them as we became more familiar with their source. But despite these jovial sallies Rosemary was always serious about lessons with the result of honor ratings. So — here’s to you, Rosemary from the Class of '40. CATHERINE ANN ENWRIGHT “Honey” showers upon us much of the genial warmth of the glorious southside sun. She is a connoisseur in sports and possesses a strength of character that foretells future leadership. Then, as now, we will be proud to proclaim “Honey” as our loyal and trusted school friend. LUCILLE ANNA FASANO Gified with a keen sense of humor, “Lu” has done much to brighten the hours of her classmates. Although a student in every sense of the word, she could always be relied on as a participant when a good time was at hand. We all wish you every success in the future, Lucille. MARY AGNES FLAHERTY “Flats” is our jovial, high-spirited classmate who has been rated as one of our best dressers. Her genial manner endeared her to all and the Class of ‘40 unites in extend- ing to her every best wish for the future. CECILE NOELIE FOREST We salute heartily our most outstanding scholar. For Cecile is more than a student. At the end of her high school course, we may proudly class her as a savant be- cause she has earnestly and faithfully attended to what most of us neglected — the acquirement of learning. When we will be struggling for success, Cecile will be sailing the sea of achievement, a welcome guest at any port of intellectual pursuit. We wish you the very best, Cecile. MARGARET LOUISE GEARY It is difficult for us to name the many likeable qualities that Peggy possesses. Her happy countenance, lighted up by a dashing smile, is enhanced by her dignity and general attractiveness. In fine, we are certain that in her future profession Peggy’s presence will be a thing of distinction and worth.

RITA MARY CROTEAU Rita is one of the liveliest graduates as well as an able enthusiast in all our sports. Her pet hobby is roller-skating in which she takes the keenest delight. Yet, she does her. part as a senior too, by helping to uphold the honor roll and that is a real assurance that she will be successful in the world. DOROTHY MARIE DAIGLE In Dorothy we often found the source of a merry laugh, while her artistic talent in cartooning bears evidence in the Bernardian. As her essays were often the catch of the weck we were surprised to learn that Dot plans to be a dietitian. Best of luck, Dot. MARGARET TERESA DARCY Margaret’s calm, gracious serenity was often the envy of many, and yet, a more genial or gay companion could not be found. She has pursued with a laudable record the Commercial course, and we have no fear in saying that we know success awaits her in the business world. IRENE AGNES DESGROSEILLIERS Lighthearted and gay Irene is as congenial a companion as anyone could desire. Her sparkling eyes and cheerful smile never seemed to dim even at midyears or finals. Although we do not know her intentions for the future, we are sure she will be a success and trust that she will not forget her classmates of the Class of ’40. ANNE SARAH DONELAN Anne, of the lovely Irish smile, will always remain in our hearts and minds as a loyal friendly classmate and true friend. Her high honor ranking has been such a regu- lar feature that we do not hesitate to present her as an able secretary even before experience has strengthened her ready ability. Best wishes, Anne. MARY ELLEN DOOLING The fact that Mary came to us only in the Junior Year did not hold her aloof from our friendly circles. Right at home in our midst, she was soon a favorite because of her modulated, well-balanced capacity for seriousness and fun. When she became acclimated she was one of the best supporters of all school activities. Sorry your stay with us was so short, Mary.

LENA ALICE GILMAN “Valuable things ce“ in small packages.” This is cer- tainly true in Lena’s case. Not only has her ability placed her among our best students, but her pleasing personality has won for her many friends. We are sure that Lena will” be a success in the business world in which she is about to enter, and wish her loads of luck. CLAIRE LUCILLE GIROUARD Claire is a typical high school student in the good old U. S. A. A deep interest in class work characterizes her while, at the same time, she is chatty and beaming with fun and good nature. We don’t believe she ever received a session slip during four years, and now we are confident she will receive many slips of admittance to the world’s best advantages. IRENE EVELYN GIROUARD Retiring, studious Irene is particularly interested in forensics, never missing one of our debates. As a sports fan she is outstanding, always cheering lustily for football and basketball. Above all, Irene trods the narrow path of learning scoring creditable results which indicate a prom- ising future. ite with all the seniors. Ever tactful and prudent she often smoothed the rough places in our paths. Balance sheets caused her no trouble, and she hopes to become a bristling member of the business world. IDA EDITH GROSSI Ida observes the dictim “better seen than heard,” for seldom does her voice ever ring forth, except at the right time in class recitation. Her thoughtfulness and charity are unbounded, and we sincerely hope that such prudence and , generosity will be highly rewarded soon. ————e DORIS MAE GOULD Doris’ ready smile and cheerful words made her a favor- j ; » f 1 ‘ CATHERINE ALICE GUILFOIL Leominster sent us a fine representative in Kitty. With her attractive smile and dimples she has often charmed us | h with her expert fiddling. Even Orpheus could do no better. ( She has been a conscientious student, but nevertheless : found time to help others. May the future be a bright rosy path, Kitty.
