CLASS BOOK OF MNETEEX TWEXTY-FOL1? ESTHER EEIH “A creature fond and changing, fair and vain. Northwest School; H. Spanish Club (3). Potatoes, bread and whipi ed cream don’t agree with Esther. We wonder why. ROS. LIND FELDMAN A thing begun is half done.” Henry Barnard Sch(X)l; H. Glee Club (2); W. French Club (4); W. Busi¬ ness Club (4), Ex. Comm. (4); C.H.L.S. (4). Rosalind did not make herself over-conspicuous among our number, but we noticed that when she began a thing she always finished it to her credit. ARTHUR W. FINE Hear, Nature, hear! Dear Goddess, hear! Northwest School. He who has once heard Archie’s recitations in Civics or History will realize that he is not content to remain unknown. We firmly believe that he spent all his spare time immersed in books on those subjects. E. MER( EDITA FISHER “.4s stately as a deer ui ' .h antlers. Northwest Sch(X)l; Sketch Club (3,4); Editorial Board of Classbook (4). Mercedita is trying hard to decide whether or not she wants to be a nurse. We are sure she will succeed at anything she attempts, and wish her lots of luck.

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.

IlMI S s m CLASS BOOK OF NINETEEN TWENTY-FOUR uouimiujiaiaiiiiiime | JOSEPH E. FOURNIER “In a wooden house a golden room we often find.” St. Anne’s School; Thrift Committee. He’s rather a quiet chap, and he isn’t so great on the girls. They say still water runs deep, though, and from what we know of Joe we are sure he will succeed at whatever he attempts. EMMA D. GARBER “Present in body, but not in spirit.” Northeast School. Emma’s mind is always about 150 miles from here, but she manages to give us a thought now and then. She drops in at school about once a week to see how the rest of us are getting along. MINNIE GERSTEIN “Less noise, less noise!” Northeast School; Athena (3,4). The English class was quiet. Not a sound could be heard. We looked for the cause and saw an empty seat—Min was absent! ROSE B. GIPSTEIN “Don ' t crowd; the world is large enough.” Arsenal School. If we knew more about Rose we could write a lot more about her. She is, however, one of the strangers in our midst.
