Mary Agnes Affleck 185 Point Street To those who know thee not No words can paint thee: To those who do. all words are faint. “Mary Agnes” of many parts! What's in a name? Oh! it is not the name! Mary called by any other name would be just as lovable. loyal. and congenial, just as witty. A fairy godmother must have smiled on Mary in various ways and helped her to become what she is. the true exponent of rightdoing. Ruth Elizabeth Barry 69 Arnold Street A true friend is a gift from God. Ruth is a girl of whom we boast. And here, her knowledge now. we toast. Of fun. of mirth, then oral themes— To her supply, no end there seems. Loyal, frank, upright, and true. Our class without her would be blue. Alice Mary Blythe Attleboro. Massachusetts A rose with all its sweetest leaves yet folded. Multum in parvo.” So we say of Alice, a very dainty miss who daily and promptly wends her way from Attleboro. She is an excellent worker: accuracy and neatness mark her studies. A sensitiveness and self consciousness add a modest air to her innate, sweet, and unassuming manner. We all love her. Mary Catherine Boyd 120 West Avenue. Pawtucket. It. I. A true friend is forever a friend. Here is one of our Pawtucket girls, a member of the Fnglish course. During her four years at S. X. A., she has found a place in the hearts of all her classmates. Her gentle and dignified bearing speaks her worth louder than words of ours. She is interested in all topics on Chemistry and Astronomy. Alice Mary Brett 1371) Westminster Street It is well to think Well: it is divine to act Well. For four happy years. Alice has been with us. and during that time we have never heard her reproved for breaking the rules. Quite an exception, consider ing how really good we (?) ) all are. Alice excels in typewriting, and the business world will be the richer for her addition to its interests. The Xavier Page Thirteen

Dorothea O'Neil Burke 227 Vermorjt Avenue “Knowledge in youth is wisdom in old age. Our Dotty” is a bon-nie lass Who's seldom known to miss a class; Her conduct is a spur in school. F:or rarely does she break a rule. Her knowledge deep and classical Will s'prise wise teachers in the fall. Helen Veronica Burke 2137 Cranston Street. Cranston, R. I. “Of manners gentle and affections mild.“ One would suppose that Vera visited Anton’s” frequently by her mode of hairdressing, but do not persuade yourself so. for she is her own clever hairdresser. Although she comes from the city of Cranston, she is very modern in all respects. Her ability in the Chemistry laboratory is the envy of all her classmates. She also ‘ shines” in Astronomy. and she glories in starry nights. Margaret Genevieve Butler 861 North Main Street “Perseverance and cheerfulness usually win. Une petite” young lady is Margaret. Margaret and the bell have a rival race every morning, and. sad to say. the bell usually wins. She is one of the stars of the Commercial class, and all that Margaret undertakes to do. she does well. Mr. Wall Street Broker, if you want an A-No. 1” Stenographer. you’d do well to employ our Margaret. The Xavier” heralds her artistic tendencies. Rose Eileen Callahan 234 Dudley Street “Sweetness and Amiability—both are in her. The name Rose describes this young miss. Smiling, sweet, and gracious, yes. one of the most popular girls in S. X. A. She is a typist we reasonably envy. The keys just ring under her magic touch. He who is wise enough to employ our efficient keyist will be the envy of the less fortunate.

Evelyn’s even and calm disposition stamps her as a real student. We envy her ease in translating Virgil: her diction, too. which is marvelous. She is tru- The Xavier
