FLORENCE L. GLEASON “ dole on his very absence.” Washington Street School. Florence is fine company on the way home from sch(K)l. .Ask Harold, he knows. She’s a grxxd dancer, too. WALTER O. GREEN “His head’s as full of quarrels as an egg is full of meal.” Junior High School, St. Johnsbury Vt.; Sketch Club (3,4), business man¬ ager (3). Walter is a natural born artist. Some of his pictures are gorgeous. The class thinks h e is the most serious. If you ask him for an explanation, he will point to the owl and say, “Silence!” CARLTON E. HILL ”I never knew so young (?) a body wtlh so old a head.” West Middle School; “Chronicle” editorial board (3,4), asst, editor (4), editor-in-chief (4); H.P.H.S. Dramatic Club (3.4); W. Dramatic Club (4), president (4), “A Chinese Flajpper” (3), “Daddy-Long-Legs” (4), “Three Live Ghosts” (4); Weaver Club (4). chmn. Ex. Comm. (4); W. Student Council (4), president (4); Boys’ Club (3,4); Editor-in-chief of Classbook (4); Thrift Comm. (4). Ah! The height of ambition. Here he is, the absolutely unsurpassible editor of “The Chronicle”—(they all are). We hope he doesn’t get conceited. Some day you may see “Hilly” become a minister—or a plumber; he says minister. Well, keep up the good work. BERNADETTE C. HOYE “ did nol mean lo chide you.” Northwest School; Vesta Club (3,4); A.A. (2,3,4). Home Economic Club, president. “Bernie was named the most dignified by the class. We often wonder just how perfect the class’s judgment was. She has rather forbidding manners, but nevertheless she was an asset to the class of ’24.

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.

IVES “Come, come! Leave your books and be merry. Northwest School; W. Girls’ Business Club (4); Tawasi (3); Class Basket¬ ball (4). One of our merriest members was Bobby. She tried to fool us all by changing her name. What’s the use? You’ll probably have to change it again soon. REEVA JOSEPH “Why should life all labor be? Northeast School; W. Glee Club (4), vice-president (4); Girls’ League (3); Tawasi (3). Never mind, Reeva, there is some work that is distasteful to the best of us. We do hope, though, that you can divert your mind from other ab¬ sorbing interests enough to decide about the future. ADA KATZMAN “The muliilude is always in the ivrong. Henry Barnard School; W. Girl’s Business Club (4); Choir (4). “You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time.” ROSE KAPPEL “Well dost thot4 thy talent display. Northeast School; Interior Decorating Club (3), Secretary (3); Sketch Club (3,4); Home Economics Council (4), president (4); W. Business Club (4). At the rate she is now going, Rose ought soon to bs in the class with Raphael and Rembrandt. Well, go to it. Rose! You deserve it.
