CIj SS book of MNETEEN TWENTY-FOUR I MARGUERITE I. COWLES Our undertakings are hut toils, and troubles, and heartbreakings.” Northwest School; Girls’ Leaders’ Corps (3) sec. and treas. (3); W.H.S. Dramatic Club (4); Class Night Essayist (4). Yes, this young lady was one of our efficient tellers. An athlete and an actress is she. But as for the latter, Peg heartily agrees that she does not think her name will ever shine in the white lights. STANLEY J. BISHOP This man is quiet, shy, but courteous.” Northwest School; Boys’ Club (3); “Chronicle” (4); W. Business Manager (4); Weaver Club (4); W. Science Club (4), treasurer (4); Classbcxik Editorial Board (4). hrom the vote of the class we would draw the conclusion that Stan is all that’s gentle, kind, and dainty. But don’t believe all that you hear. He has an over-developed faculty of getting e.xcused from gym. Let him disclose the secret: we crave information! MIGA N. ( ' ODRARO I hare promised, and I ' ll be as good as my word.” Brown School; W. Glee Club (4). A quiet, steady individual who is so bashful that she won’t recite in class. LILLIAN COHN Wisdom and innocence combined.” Alfred E. Burr School; 2. Business Club (4), vice-president (4); C.H.L.S. (4). “Lil” rather gave the impression of innocence than wisdom, but her name on the honor roll proves the presence of both characteristics.

CLASS BOOK OF NINETEEN TWENTY-FOUR I MHiunnmwnmiiiic I Hitmmnnitimiiianmnnniuiiniiiiiiiiuur iiiinajiitiiiiiittair ' imiiiK EVA R. BECKERMAN Brunette, statuesque, the reverse of grotesque.” Henry Barnard School; H. Spanish Club (3); W. Business Club (4); C.H.L.S. (4); Thrift Comm. (4). Our little “Eve”. Be careful lest the snake prevail upon you! Apples soar skyward this year. She was always on the honor roll, no matter how hard she tried to get off. Hard luck—hard luck! EDITH L. BENNETT ‘‘A mill-stone and the human heart are driven round and round.” Northeast School. “Tripie” hasn’t come out much in school life, but that doesn’t make her entirely unknown to us. In fact it is asserted that she is some little dancer. The boys have enjoyed her stay with us, anyway. JULIA L. BERGER “The imitation soon will disappear. But ' Jewel ' remains there bright and clear.” Northwest School; Vesta Club (3); W. Art Club (4); Home Economics Council (4); Home Economics Club (4); Choir (4). We don’t hear much about “Jule” as she is called. Some say she is very wise. So is the owl, and besides, Polonius said, “Brevity is the soul of wit.” BARBARA BILL “7 know a maiden fair to see. Take care! She can both false and friendly be!” Northwest School; Classical Club (4). Bob is not hard to look at, and she is a good dancer. Yet the class did not hand her a very good reputation. The reason is too evident—there are more girls than boys!

I Muiniiuiawttutmit I MWUlWKMItlllllUIIC HELEN F. CROLL “She rose upon a wind of prophecy, dilating on the future.” Northwest School; Vesta Club (2,3.4): Spanish Club (3); W. French Club (4), Ex. Comm. (4); C.H.L.S. (4); Thrift Comm. (4); Prophetess (4). What’s this? Most sarcastic! Indeed! Though this was the opinion of the class, it is most emphatically denied by our fair Helen. She is quite an independent young Miss. We wonder what Mr. Crowell’s class would do without her. The class thinks that she deserves an A. SARAH M. DUBROW “Now will I show a fair pair of heels.” Northeast School; W. Girls’ Business Club (4), president (4); C.H.L.S. (4), secretary (4); cashier (3,4); K.B.L.S. (3); Student Council (4); Owlet” bookkeeper (3,4); 1st scholarship prize (1); 2nd scholarship prize (2,3) Valedictorian (4); Parliamentary Law Club (4), president (4). Without a thought for our feelings, “Sally Ann” has left us in the dust. With pride we point to our Sally. As you see from looking at her photo¬ graph, she has an intelligent face—and she’s so modest! MOLLY EAGER “Few know her well, she is so quiet.” Northeast School; W. Girls’ Business Club (4). She moves demurely in our midst, with an occasional saying to make us aware of her presence. ESSIE E. EPSTEIN “There is hut orw proof of ability — action.” Northwest School; K.B.L.S. (3); W. Glee Club (4), Ex. Comm. (4); C.H.L.S. (4), president (4); Classical Club (4), president (4); W. French Club (4). vice-president (4); Salutatorian (4). And Essie certainly is there with the action. She is always busy, but nevertheless, always has time to give a friendly greeting to all. It was rumored that she was going to run for president of the United States, and we shouldn’t be a bit surprised to see her occupying the White House some day.
