DORRIS CRAGIN FRAMINGHAM Mount Ida Editor of the Literary Supplement 4; Senior Adviser; Assistant in German Department 4; Editor of Nik 3; Associate Editor of Record 3, 2; Psyche, Secretary 3, President 4; German Club, Secretary 2, Vice-President 3; Art Club. “Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings come words of wisdom.” This was convincingly proven by Dorris, whose childish dimples and innocent blue eyes seemed not at all in keeping with her office of Psyche president, or, more amazing, of an instructor in the German department! She was also one of the eight social butterflies who fluttered about third floor Stanton; —a threefold personality compounded of In- nocence, Intellect and social Inclinations. ROSE CHARLOTTE CROSBY Bancor, Me. Bangor High School Assistant House Chairman, 3; Psyche; Art Club; Spanish Club. Chuck had a queer sense of humor that broke out at unexpected moments. A mirthless, sardonic laugh, just to express her attitude on the situation, — a good old hearty laugh that once started couldn’t be checked, and went on and on till everyone else laughed in sympathy, —a baby chuckle to match her baby talk and the book of baby words which she liked so much to read. ELIZABETH CUSHING SEEKONK East Providence High School Art Club; German Club; Romance Languages Club. A book in which Betty Cushing features is, to a great extent, a treatise on art. With three years of lecture courses, she stored up a vast amount of theoretical art. Add to this courses in modelling, charcoal drawing, design, and studio painting, — and behold! — one of Wheaton’s most artistic products. Page Twenty-seven

NIK E—e—1 926 IRENE CANFIELD PITTSFIELD Pittsfield High School Director of Bureau of Vocational Opportunities 4; Student Council 4,3; Y. W. C. A. Cabinet 4,3;1. C. S.A. Cabinet 3; Inbrary Chairman 3; Romance Languages Club; German Club. Irene would have loved to glue the pages of the book together just at the place where “‘ Trembling, the hero- ine shrank back — !” simply to keep you in suspense a while longer. Mean? — well, is that any worse than some of the other tricks she played? There’s many a clever thought under that black bob, — in fact, too many for the comfort of her friends! ELEANOR CLINE DEDHAM Dedham High School Class Soccer 4; Psyche; Art Club; Glee Club; French Club; Agora; Choir. Run rapidly over the pages and you will take away an impression something like this: Peg — embroidery; Peg — soccer; Peg — music; Peg — bridge; Peg—design; Peg — Honor Roll; Peg — here and there and always busy. It says somewhere that once they called her “Tda Cline,” but it was more usual to say just “ Peg.” HILDA COOK New Berprorp New Bedford High School Y.W.C. A. Cabinet 1; Riding Team 4; Treasurer of German Club 2; Art Club; Orchestra. Cooks in fairy tales have sandy hair screwed up into a hard little knot at the top of their heads, and firmly secured with a single pin; cooks in southern stories are comfortable black mammies, and French cooks have waxed mustaches. But our Hilda Cook was a little girl heroine with a happy giggle, bobbed hair, “‘Steeley”’ blue eyes, and a diamond. Page Twenty-six

EDITH DAVENPORT New Beprorp New Bedford High School House Chairman; Literary Supplement Staff 4; Class Hockey 1, 2; Class Basketball 1; Captain of Class Baseball; Riding Team 2, 4; Psyche; Romance Lan- guages Club. Edith was the living embodiment of the Inde- pendent, from title to the final word of the last adver- tisement for ““A Skin You Love To Touch.” Devoted to things of a practical, unsentimental nature, with plenty of attention given to the newest and best in fiction and poetry, and with a great deal of space reserved for things of sport interest, —The Inde- pendent, — Edith Davenport. MARION DE WITT SOMERVILLE Somerville High School House Chairman 4; Vice-President of Class 3; Y.W.C.A. Cabinet 3; Fire Captain 3; Red Cross Cha irman 3; May Queen’s Court 3, 2; Classical Club; Art Club; Psyche. DeWittie was sweet and DeWittie was fair. She often wore bright blue and gray, and these two colors seemed to express her personality better than any others possibly could. Her good disposition and ready tact made her an ideal house chairman. Another of her claims to fame was the white, woolly coat which marked many of her appearances on campus. CAROLYN RAMSDELL DODGE WoBuRN Woburn High School President of A. A. 4; President of Class 1; Assistant Business Manager of Nrkf 3; Y.W.C.A. Cabinet 4; Varsity Hockey, 2, 3, 4; Class Hockey 1, 2, 3, 4; Varsity Basketball 2, 3, 4; Captain of Varsity Basketball 4; Class Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4; Captain of Class Basketball 3; Class Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4; Romance Languages Club; Art Club; Orchestra. If some day, on a magazine cover, we see “‘ American College Girl, Athletic Type,” it will doubtless be Carol Dodge. Ability to head a class or an organization successfully; ability to play on all the varsity squads and all the class teams; ability to entertain with her mandolin, — Carol and ability! Twenty-eight
