ELIZABETH ANNE JORDAN Elizabeth is one of those quiet girls whose charm lies in her ability to hear others. Whether a sad or funny story is being told, Elizabeth is an appreciative listener. She has always been seen with her close friend, Rose, attending all school football or basketball games. Success to Betty in all her future work. MARIE ALPHONSINE LACOMBE “Harriet” often joined us vibrant with the frosty cold of winter mornings when she had to trudge through the snow owing to the refusal of the family car to start. She never missed out however, in coming, and it is this grit that will carry her through the various stages of the nursing career. Best of luck, “Harriet,” through the years. MILDRED MARY LEBLANC One of our small brunettes, Mildred has kept us going by her inimitable little way of diffusing wit, humor, and genialty. She saw to it that she did not ever lose ground on the honor roll, and yet was right there always in the cheering squad at all the games. Best of everything Mildred, from all of us. CHARLOTTE YVONNE L’ECUYER “The life of the party’’—that’s the best way by which we may designate Charlotte. She spent much time in care- fully preparing her class work, but never slipped up in re- gard to sports or school activities. After school days she plans to continue secretarial work to which she has already been initiated. May you reach the heights, Charlotte. GLADYS THERESA LEGENDRE Another of our famous pianists, who for reasons all her own, never seeks to invade the spotlight. Much of her free time she spends in outdoor activities, and in the perfecting of her loved accomplishment. May your achievements in after life, Gladys, be a just compensation for all your efforts. 27

LORRAINE VICTORIA HOULE Lorraine is an ardent pursuer of the classical lore, but she has so much fun in the race, that the tediousness of Latin has never bored her. She has a very gentle, smooth mannc¢r, enlivened by a yen for fun and laughter, and complemented by an unmistakable talent as a pianist. Keep up the cheer- ful outlook, Lorraine. It’s the key to success. ALFREDA ANN JOSEPH Little Alfreda, with her cheerful smile and friendly man- ner is liked by all and likes everyone.
