JENNETTE THERESA COUTURIER Jennette’s sweet warble often refreshed our drooping spirits, especially after exams. Always anxious and alert about class work, she nevertheless, was ever ready to oblige with a solo. In dramatics, too, she often entertained us and lent her best endeavors to make everything a success. May you enjoy a larger portion of good fortune, Jennette, and please do not forget the members of '44. MARY ANDREA CRAIGEN Maty is another of our sweet singers with which it has pleased God to enrich the Class of '44. Cl ear, soft, and sweet the tones filled the air as Mary, simple and gracious, faced us—a formidable throng—in the auditorium. It was great practice for when she makes the Metropolitan she won't find the effort nearly so hard. Luck and prosperity to you, Mary. CLAIRE ANNE CROTEAU Claire, our petite brunette from Room 21 made our classes always so pleasant by knowing the work so thor- oughly, and reciting with such clear and soothing words. We could always depend on Claire to fill in the gap when brains were dull. May you continue to extend the good work, Claire, and may every happiness attend your efforts. CECILE MARY DEMAZURE Cecile, one of our most zealous seniors from Cleghorn certainly gives a shining example of student industry, for we have yet to find her failing to respond in class recita- tion. She and Helen Leger are real, true friends, seldom apart, from 8:15 A.M. to 1:55 P.M. May your friendship continue, Cecile, and may you always be ready when oppor- tunity knocks.

NATALIE ANN CONNORS “Nat” is a quiet and modest girl. Her actions speak louder than her words. During her four years in high school, her name has occupied space on the High Honor Roll. She is noted for her smile, her friendliness, and is always ready to lend a helping hand. We will be proud to have you as a representative of $.B.H.S. at Our Lady of the Elms next year, and we certainly will miss you, Nat. RITA ELIZABETH CORMIER Rita, our titian-haired comrade from the renowned sub- urb, Cleghorn, has pleasantly, and in a friendly manner mingled with us all. She was a successful member of the Commercial Department, and we have every indication that her developed talents in that field will bear much fruit in the days to come. So, with reluctance we take leave of Rita now, wishing her well in the busy mart. MARIE AGNES COSTELLO If we had our choice of someone with whom to be ma- rooned on a desert isle, it undoubtedly would be Marie. She has the attributes which make lif e enjoyable, namely good nature, imperturability, sincere kindness, along with an oftseen dimpled smile. She has successfully completed the Commercial Course in the manner typical of West Fitchburg students. We hope you find life as gracious as yourself, Marie. MARJORIE ANN COTE Marjorie has been a true friend during our four years stay at St. Bernard's. Always merry and gay, she has cheered us up many a time. She is a zealous student as well as a tireless sports fan. Among her many outside activities, she prefers dancing. A member of the commer- cial course, she is sure to be a success in the business world. U =F ese

THERESA MARY DEMERS What is a classroom without Theresa? Merry, cheerful, and bright, she has kept us giggling when our hearts were blue, and so all along the way she has been our merry sunbeam. She has pursued the Commercial Course, but her talents include singing, dancing, and roller-skating. Good luck, Terry. CECILE MARY DESILETS Cecile has a pleasing personality and a gaiety of spirit that has won her many friends. She is a member of the orchestra. Although she takes a keen interest in all sports, especially basketball, she finds time for her studies, with a result of high honor rating. We know that in the years to come she will be a loyal representative of St. Bernard's High, so the best of everything, Cecile. THERESE MARIE DION We here at St. Bernard’s have certainly enjoyed The- rese’s company. Although she’s a little quiet, everybody likes her and she makes herself heard when she wants to. She is particularly known for her brilliant feats in book- keeping. Her favorite sports are bowling and ice-skating. Well, Therese, here’s wishing you loads and loads of luck through life. SARAH THERESE DONELAN Sparkling eyes and a keen sense of humor make Sally a lovable person. She also has a fine soprano voice, is a member of the Glee Club, and Choir. Sally’s sunny dis- position will take her far, as well as the determination which makes her our topnotch bond seller. Continue, Sally, with zest, confidence, and courage. ee
