She has always been very popular, and has taken great interest in matters of school and Class importance. If she lives up to our expectations, she no doubt will become famous because she is very ambitious. Sometimes when she seems absent minded, we wonder if she is wandering in the realm of romance, and who the lucky chap is.

started we gave the Senior reception to the Freshmen and there was a good gathering from the student body and townspeople present. Not long after this we decided to start raising money for our trip to Washington. As a beginning we sold candy and later held a series of bake sales. We would not have had enough, however, had it not been for the generous support of the townspeople. We started for Washington in the cars, which we hired. on April 2. Our first night we spent in New York and went on to Wash- ington the next day. The following three days we spent in seeing the capitol, and what interesting days they were. We came home by way of Gettysburg and Harrisburg, arriving home on the seventh day from a most educational trip. Miss Chase kindly consented to go as chaperone. She helped make the trip more interesting by her clever witticisms and proved to be more adapt at walking than most of the members of the class. The remainder of the year we've spent in working on graduation speeches and the Camera.

'gDick', has been a member of our class from the start and as such has distinguished himself in all the activities of the school. Dick,' has been noted especially for his oratorial ability and has brought home the bacon from more than one Prize Speaking Contest. As a student Dick,, has few equals, and perhaps the best proof we can give of his mental achievements is the fact that he has been chosen as valdictorian of his class. We understand that aDick', plans to enter Dartmouth in the fall. All we can say by way of prophecy is that if his spirit of co-operation is as strong and his mental efforts as untiring as they have been during the last four years, he will be a credit to Stamford Seminary and a power in the Held of work he enters. ANNA GENEVIEVE HOWARD uANNIEH Stamford, New York Prize Speaking 4 When Anna came to us in our second year our class was completely rejuvenated. Before she came here she was a student at Delhi Academy, one of our rivals, but nevertheless she forgot that school and became one of our loyal patriots. We wonder that she is still in school because last year she had a violent love affair with a certain magician. We have heard people say that he hypnotized her several times. That intense love affair ended when her lover went to the city to pursue further the mysteries of his profession. Miss Anna Genevieve was very well known around Delhi and vicinity, and from all accounts we judge that her memory still lingers in the hearts of the Delhi students. One day when our baseball team went to Delhi sev- eral people asked if they knew Anna Howard. Of course they were charmed to say dyes. This shows that she was quite the berriesv down that way. We will say here that Anna was the 'Glife of the partyi' on the Wash- ington trip. When she went to the capital city she was very choice about her food. She generally ordered grapefruit and shredded wheat. Those things seemed to appeal to her immensely. She has been so taken up with her magician that she has neglected her class duties to a certain extent, but we will forgive her.
