He is one of our Hpremier' students and passes his courses in a way which delights the faculty. Above all, Henry is a perfect gentleman as well as a conscientious student. VVe wish that he could have spent more than a year with us, but we are grateful to Q. H. S. for sending us a fellow like Henry. VIRGINIA LOUISE HEALY tGinnyJ Mt. Holyoke Is she not passing fair?'

GOVVAN Harvard Books were his passion and his delight Even in sixth-class days. we admired John's working vocabulary. Perhaps its wealth helps him to the honor roll, where his name appears quite often. John has shown that he can rise on any Auspicious occasion not only in class dramatics but also in managing athletic teams, and in solving the knottiest problems in mathematics. Who else but our John could carry an eight-subject curriculum and be absolutely dependable at all times?

ELEANOR GEORGETTE IORIO KEU Boston University 'fShe is pretty to walk with, And witty to talk with, Anil pleasant, too, to think on. HEY' is one of our new friends. Although she has been here but a year, she already has electrified our English classes. She came to us from Stetson I-Iighg but then she is so nice, we soon forgave her that. Dame Rumor has it that she finds B. U. very attractive for certain reasons, so we hope to find her a freshman at P. A. L. next year. Girls' Club, lg Glee Club, 1.

He is a student of great earnestness and persistence, and has made many of the 'tGiants,' in our intellectual field work to surpass his efforts. Doug's dearest possession is a Ford Sedan in which he proudly drives to school every other week, arriving at 82916. However, he does better than the other Brocktonites who arrive at 8.31. We always find 'tDoug ready with a cheery word or an offer of a flivver ride whenever we are in need of either. May college give him its best. Orchestra, 2, 1.

Don Fuller is now before you to get his full share of praiseg he does remarkably well both in his studies and on the athletic field. Besides, Don almost never fails when he makes up his mind to succeed, Cwitness the 89 he received in his Annapolis examj and we predict that with this quality, he will always 'tmake port with flying colors .

ETHEL DOUGLASS fTed7 'fl love the peo-ple But I do not like tor stage me to their eyes A Here beginneth Safed the saga his tale: f'Five autumns ago there came from the east country near the city of a million maidens this Ted, bringing with her, her books, her athletic equipment, and all her treasures. Now it came to pass that this Ted learned to play basketball like one possessed, which was a discomfort to her opponents. And it also happened that she would wander into the rooms devoted to linguistic studies and there converse with the wise men-and they would marvel at her understanding. Her classmates, too, did soon discover her greatest treasures-courtesy, helpfulness, and prudence, and did honor her for themf' Thus endeth Safcd his tale.

CHARLOTTE KIMBALL CShi-Shih Swarthmore Therefs nane sae bonnyj few sae guid In a' King George dominion Surely few have earned the title All-round girl more justly than our Charlotte. Her smile from behind the lunch counter each day bears witness to her good nature, her ability to get things done is in evidence whenever and wherever her services are enlisted. An excellent horse-woman, a hockey enthusiast, a musician of more than local fame, actress, and last but not least, a mainstay of the Honor Roll-All these is Charlotte. Do you wonder we are proud of such a Versatile classmate?

Y GEORGE WILTON JENNESS Northeastern MOM' flaitery welll keep for some other, Him only it's justice to praise George Jenness, one of our new members, is so well known now that an introduction at this time seems superfluous. Be assured his friendship has been worth cultivating. He understands how to take a task, no matter what its kind, and accomplish it quietly and cer- tainly,-in fact, with an air of real enjoyment.
