As the main building was already overcrowded with 1 aspiring young stenographers and bookkeepers. we Street branch, which was then a part of Commerce. Since the branch was attended only by freshmen, , F we did not feel so timid as we would if we had been among the upper classmen. As time went on, we began to turn our attention towards the election of our class officers. The two freshmen classes combined in selecting the follow- ing officers: President, Raymond Cardinal, Vice President, Irene Martelg Secretary, Anna Statzg Treasurer, Francis Cardinal. After the Christmas holidays we came back eagerly, with a New Year 's resolution' to work harder. The next few months showed that many were keeping this resolution. As May approached, we began to look forward to Class Games, which were to be held at Tech Field. It was a gala day and among the various colors was the freshmen 7s purple and white. Commerce won the meet that year. This same year Commerce also won in outdoor track, indoor track, baseball, and basketball. Although we did not participate in any of the sports, we helped our school by cheering, which we did very well. Many left school, but those who remained studied diligently, as our freshman year was coming to a close in January. At the beginning of February 1921 we became Sophomores. We were elated not only by the fact that we were Sophomores, but also by the fact that we were going to the t'School on the Hill. What a great mass of people there seemed to be that first day we CHITIQ. All seemed to know where they were going except us, hut, as we were a progressive class, we did not take long to become accustomed to the building. A new plan of having a free period every Friday morning was introduced by the school. This plan was a great help to many of us for polishing our recitations before class. The Blackfriars presented a play entitled Monsieur Bea.ucaire in Tuckerman Hall on March thirty-first. So well did the characters portray their parts, that it took some time before their classmates could distinguish them. The time grew near for our second Class Games. VVe again donned our class colors and decorated our rooms. This year Commerce won in baseball and indoor track. and came second in cross-country. The girls won the 1921 pennant for hockey. ln this year it is interesting to note that the girls were beginning to bob 21 who were entering, were to go to the Salisbury High School of Comnzerrf their hair. Many fair locks were sacritied on the altar of fashion, but it can- not be denied that the girls looked more business-like. Returning' from our summer vacation, we buckled down to study for the last stretch of our Sophomore year. The third year, and we were Juniors, one year nearer to our goal. ln electing the class officers for this year, great wisdom was shown in choosing the following: President. Leonard Mort, Vice President, Christine- Stephanq Secretary, Linnea Vandlang Treasurer, Stanley VVhiting. Many of us. who had joined the Britomart and Assembly, attended the joint dance which is held annually hy these two societies in the gymnasium. New acquaintances were made, and this together with the general air of good fellowship, provided for a jolly evening. Vile also were heard from in the Glee t'lubs, lilackfriars, and other organizations. ln January the Blaekfriars pre- sented The Thirteenth Chair at Tuekerman Hall. Since the hall was filled to its capacity, there can be no doubt as to its success. This favorable re- sult was due to the cooperation of Mr. Moriarty, the coach, and every member ol' the cast. Again t'lass tlames were claiming our attention. t'ommittees were chosen to decorate the rooms, and prizes were awarded to the prettiest. ltlvery room was a riot ot' color and many were the oh's and ah's that came from the throats ot' the spectators. ln the Spring, 0 Hara, San, au operetta, was presented in Tuekerman llall by the Girls' and the Boys' tllee tllubs. This operetta was enthusiastic- ally received by those who attended because of the excellence of its perform- ance and the novelty of it. Much credit' is given to Miss tlraee Ellis and Mr. .lohn Oakes, who were untiringr in their efforts to make this operetta a success. At last February 1923 came, and we were Seniors. Our freshman ambition was now fulfilled. The officers chosen for this year were-President, t'harles Wartieldg Vice President, t'hristine Stephan, Secretary, liinnea Vaudlan: 'l'reasurer, Stanley VVhitingI. The Mercury speaks for itself as to the success of some of our literary l'l2lSSlll2ii0S. November twenty-third, class day officers were elected, as follows: Orator, Philip t'rossq Prophet, Katherine Doherty, Historian, Rose lVIassei5 Pianist, Edith llurkeeg Violinist, Goldie Kaufman, Soloist, Robert Prouty. November twenty-third also was the date set for Senior day. The N324 class wishing to be distinctive, and as Thanksgiving was so near, they decided to appear as Pilgzrims, instead of their younger sisters as was customary. The day was bright and sunny, and the quaint and picturesque costumes added to the festive occasion. Our class has not been represented very largely in athletics: but that fact did not stop us from attending in great numbers the games, and cheering for our school. XVe have all been greatly benefited by our gymnastic training under two such excellent coaches as Miss Anna T. Mooney and Mr. Ralph T. lVard. VVith many business meetings and social affairs came the close of our Senior year. To our principal. parents. and teachers we owe much of our gratitude for all they have done to help us realize our ambitions. XVc shall always re- member with fond recollections our happy years spent at the 'tSchool on the Hill and shall always try to bring her honor. 22 lass Qhratinn, 1924-Z1 HARDING, THE GENTLE PHILIP VROSS H - HE grief that fell upon the country was one of genuine sorrow and deep sympathy, when the news of the death of Warren Gamiliel Harding, 29th president of the United States, was broadcasted through the world. Political differences were for- gotten and in the moment of his death President Harding's hold on the good-will and the affectionate esteem of the country became apparent as never before. A boyhood on the farm with some high school and college experience followed by country news- paper workg as a business, or a profession, has fitted - H many an American for a valuable career of national service. This was especially true in the case of Mr. Harding. He had never lost his fondness for farming and had only recently purchased the farm in Morrow County, Ohio, where he lived in his boyhood. Mr. Harding was born November 2, 1865, and was within 3 months of com- pleting his 58th year when he died. To a man who enters journalism and pol- itics at the age of 19 and continues stead-fastly and assidously at those pursuits public-mindedness becomes a second-nature. Apart from all his training which fitted him for public life, Mr. Harding had been endowed by nature with a fine presence, an excellent voice, and a most gracious, persuasive, and agreeable manner. ln 1910 his first venture into political life he met with defeat. Evi- dently President Harding believed in the statement that real success is founded on earnest, perseverance. He was not daunted but t1'ied again and this time met with greater success. ln order to form a just estimate of Mr. Harding's character and mental caliber it would be wise became president: HWhen to turn to a. statement which he made just before hc the mantle of responsibility falls upon a man, he is clothed with new power. Instantly he gathers new potentialities. new ca- pacities. How often have you seen an enterprise suddenly bereft of its leader gain a new and unexpected strength from the advent of a new leader dwelling theretofore in obscurity? In the untimely death of Mr. VVarren G. Harding the world lost a presi- 23 Higll Svhool of CflllllIIFl'l'F dont, who, although ohsvure in his work was brilliant in his thoughts and kindly in tho intvrosts of humanity. Mr. Harding roalizocl that other leaders would come after him, that no breach in the ranks would remain long vacant, that some other would assumo tho grvat rosponsihility of the highest office of the stato. No word could he said of Pi-vsidont Harding that would more truly doscrilw him than to say hc was gentle. As ono liioggraplioi' says of him, Ho simply did not undvrstaud tho omotion of hatrvd.

From the Deities they were endowed with a gift of prophecying futures. They were horrible-looking creatures with distorted features. One peculiar thing that I noticed in particular was the fact that they wrote their prophecies on green leaves. As I read the interesting account a thought flashed through my mind. Ivhy not go to see one of these Sibyls, and find out the futures of my class- mates. In a few days I will leave school and won't see some of them for years. It would be great fun to know now what my classmates will be doing years from now. I resolved to go the very first chance I could get. The opportunity presented itself about a week ago. and I quickly grasped it. With my first glance at the Sibyl's cave I had a wild desire to run. My gaze could not penetrate very far into the cave, because ofa thick greyish vapor which slowly Hoated out from within. It had a peculiar subtle odor. As I think it all over now, I realize it must have been incense burning as an offering to the gods. I could dimly make out a dark figure swaying back and forth. Once when the breeze parted the veil of smoke, I had a brief glimpse of it. That glimpse was enough! The figure, which proved to be the Sibyl, was covered with some sort of dark cloak. Her matted gray hair streamed over her withered face. Her green eyes gleamed like those of a cat in the dark, and her mouth was covered with foam. The smoke screened her from my view again and I had a distinct feeling of relief. Ilared I speak to her? Having gone thus far, I might just as well finish, so raising my voice, I told her that I desired to know the futures of my classmates. The only answer I received was low mutterings. groans. and croaks. Suddenly. there was a putt of smoke, and from the mouth of the cave came a shower of leaves. Hastily I gathered them up and ran as quickly as I could, anxious to get away from the horrible spot. Well, here are the leaves, I haven 't read them over myself as yet. I decided to wait and read them over with you.

B. O'GRAIJY SHOULD like to tell you about an interesting event which happened about 4 years ago, in 1940. I was living in Switzerland at that time, and one warm summer's day I decided to take a run over to California in my aerocar. I had just crossed the Atlantic when I realized that my batteries were giving out. So I swooped down and looked for a landing place. Right beneath me was a large, clear space. so I landed and then got out to look about. I was on a hill overlooking a busy city. Why, the place seemed strangely familiar! About two hundred yards from me was an old, stately mansion. Then I remembered. That was Green Hill Mansion, and I had landed in my old home town. 'Worcester Massachusetts. Right down there was the fish pond, so I ran down the hill to see that familiar spot again. VVhen I reached the edge of the pond I met with a still greater surprise, for there under the shady trees, sat my old classmate, Mae Reardon, eating her the chattering and rejoicing that followed and then help her enjoy her lunch. lunch! You can imagine I sat down with Mae to As we were lingering there, I noticed some ducks, under a nearby bush. all busy pecking at something. Mae and I watched them for a few moments and then went over to investigate. The ducks had evidently loosened quite a pile of dirt and protruding from the heap, I saw a square, wooden corner. My curiosity was aroused, so Mae ran up to the mansion and got a little auto- matic shovel. CI didn 't think they kept such up-to-date things in the mansion housed We had the earth shovelled away in a minute and then we saw a hurried chest. It was rather small and of the plain, old-fashioned style com- monly seen 'way back in the '20,s. We pried it open with the shovel and saw within a scroll, yellowed with age, which was tied with a blue and gold ribbon and secured with many seals. The sight of that blue and gold ribbon called back the memories of my former school-days. I eagerly opened it and at the top of the paper emblazoned in orange was: 1924-12 ' HIGH SCHOOL OF COMMERCE CLASS HISTORY I was overjoyed at being the person to 'dnd this valuable document and since then have kept it carefully. I thought you would be interested in hear- ing it, so I brought it with me to read to you: The Class in its Freshman Year In September of this year two hundred and fifty pupils entered the High School of Commerce. Since the class was so large, it was divided into three groups, one of which was sent to the South High School. another to the Salis- 37 High Srlmol of Cfl1l1lIlf'fl'f' bury liraneh, and the third to the High Sehool of Fommeree. Because of this division, elass activities were rather limited. However, one member of the elass, Annette Anderson, as member of the South High team, took part in the lnter-High Musie Memory Fontest, the first of its kind to be held in the city of Woreester. Two of our boys, not wishing to be outdone, went in for athleties. -Iohn Ilussey was on the ehampionship Outdoor Track Team, an'l Daniel Healy was a member of the ehampionship Baseball Team. Then Vlass Day eame, and for the first time, the elass appeared in its orange and white finery, But oh! what a disappointment, when shortly before noon, it started to rain and the elass games were postponed. The poor little t'reshmen went home in the downpour, all drenehed and forlorn! Hut two days later they eourageously 1'eappeared and the orange and white was well represented at the elass games. Sophomore Year The Sophomore year ol' this elass was only the first year at t'ommeree for most ol' the pupils and they had to endure all the tortures of the first day of high sehool over again, sinee l'ommeree was so mueh larger than North and South. They thought they would never find their way through the labyrinth ol' eorridors that al'terward beeame so dear to them. lt was then that the elass was organized as a whole. lts two old standbys, .lohn llussey and Daniel llealy, were on the eham- pionship lfootball Team. Annette Anderson again appeared in the limelight as a member of the Musie Memory Team and this time she had Agnes Pepin with her. ln this year our elass was aetive in debating. ln the animal Girlsi Seiiior-Sophomore llebate our elass was represented by Mary Moran, Mary Palmer, lsabel t'arney, and Ann Mitehell, sueeessfully upholding the negative of the question Resolved: That the lVlonroe lloetrine should be abolished. lt was in this year also that lVIr. lioyden eame to l'ommeree as Assistant l'rineipal. lt was generally thought that he missed the members of' this elass who had been at North in their freshman year so mueh that he followed them to t'ommeree. ln February the elass turned out in large numbers to se-L 'flVIonsieur Beaueaire in whieh Randolph Engstrom of this elass played the hero and was ably assisted by the stalwart John Hussey. Evelyn Rhodenizer was the next to appear on the seene as a member of the Girls' Deelaiming Team and she helped Vommeree win in the first lnter- lligh Deelaiming Vontest. ln the Spring the t'onsolidated Chorus and Oreliestra of the four high sehools had its first eoneert in Mechanics Hall. About four hundred pupils took part, many of whom were in this class. Then, finally, Daniel Healy again figured in sports as a member of the ehampionship Baseball Team. Among other celebrities were those in the Orchestras and Glee Clubs, but their names are too numerous to mention. Junior Year By this time the elass was well organized so at the beginning of the year it was neeessary to eleet oflieers. The following were elected: 38 High Sfhool of Commerfe President, Adrian Choquette Vice-President, Marion Hill Secretary, Sarah Madden Treasurer, VVilliam Bragg This year the class was well represented in sports. John Hussey and Thomas Carrigan were on the championship Football Team, and W'illiani Ryan was on the championship Basketball Team, while VVilbur Campbell featured in Baseball and Track. The class was represented in girls' sports by Mildred Henckel who was on the championship Hockey Team and the Basketball Team. Then in November the Music Memory Contest was again held with Annette Anderson and VVinifred O'Grady on the Commerce Team that tied with Classical. ln January, the Blackfriars presented The Thirteenth Chair and the class turned out in large numbers. This time Kenneth Connor was the only one we could claim as an actor. Two weeks later Randolph Engstrom helped Commerce to add another victory to her list by winning the Boys' Declaiming Contest. Shortly after this event. debating was in season again and the girls' Senior-Junior debate was held. Our team, consisting of Charlotte Gibbons. Katherine Kirwan, and Ann Mitchell beat the Seniors. One of the important events of the Spring was the operetta HO Hara San. given by the glee clubs and Orchestra B. Members of the '24-B class had the important roles. Those taking part were Pearl Smythe, Randolph Engstrom, Mary Galvin, Evelyn Rhodenizer, Grace Cheney, Adrian Choquette, Esther Carlson, and Robert Nosworthy. Then Evelyn Rhodenizer again represented 192-L-B in the Girls' Declaiin- ing Contest. ln June an innovation was started when Commerce Day was observed. The whole school went to the Assembly Hall and watched the boy and girl athletes perform on the stage and illustrate the benefits of physical education. This successful year was appropriately brought to a close by a picnic at Lake Chauncy, which turned out to be a very successful affair in making the members of the class better acquainted. Senior Year At last we were nearing our goal and were dignified Seniors. The choice of officers in the Junior Year proved to have been a wise one, as the same offieers were again elected. Class activities started in November with a Senior Dance in the gymnasium which was greatly enjoyed by the pupils and members of the faculty. ' In November the Girls' Senior-Junior Debate was held. The question was: 'fResolved: That the present tendency toward a freer use of slang is justifiable. The Senior Team. consisting of Mary Reardon, Katherine Kir- wan, Winifi'ed O'Grady and Floris Raymond. upheld the affirmative and won. A week later Senior Day was observed, but instead of dressing like chil- dren, the girls Wore Puritan costumes and the effect was very pleasing. A few, however. could not withstand using slang and chewing gum despite the fact that they were represnting their Pilgrim ancestors. 39 High Sflmol of Cflll1lllFfl'F The class was represented in girls' sports by Nora Mct'arron, who was on the Tennis Team, and Edith Bell, who was on the Hockey Team, and Manager of the Basketball Team. At the beginning of December the Music Memory Contest was held with the same members taking part as in the Junior Year. ln the middle of the month the first concert of the VVorcester High School Band was held with Annette Anderson as one of the aeeompanists. In January the new Mercury Statf, consisting' of members of the '24-R class only was chosen, with Helen Grittin as Editor-in-Uhief. ln the middle of the month, the Boys' Senior-.lunior Debate was held. The Senior 'l'ean1, consisting' of Leander lirennen, Adrian Uhoquettc, Raymond lN'largr4-ruin and Raymond Mullett, won. In the saine month llisram-li was given by the lilacktriars with Marion Ilill and Iiewis Dexter taking' part. When the lreslnnen entered in l4'ebruary, 1924-li devised the novel scheme ol' XY4'll'0llllllLl' lln-ni and attendingj to their needs. The connnittee appointed to welcome them was as follows: liillian Cotter, Marion llill, lfllorence Iljelstroin, ltlsther Ilinckcl, Evelyn lthodenizer, Mac liergrer, Edith Bell, Frances Robbins, lieona ltobbins, Grace Vliency, Eleanor Buckley, tlertrude lJeVoe, Emma lflarley, Elsa lirandt, ltiehard Anderson, Allen Beckwith, Arthur liellrose, Adrian t'hoquelte, liewis Dexter, liawrenee liarsky. VVilbur t'an1pbelI, Walter Frykliolin, t'lit'ton llosiner. l'harles llarris, Iieo liapierre, 'llllt'0Il0I't' Wohlbruck, Robert Nosworthy, llarold Wray and .lohn Zeinaitis. Following' this event was the Boys' Public Speaking' Vonlest, in which Randolph Engrstroin took part as usual. Shortly afterward the Girls' Senior-Sophornorc llebatc, the last ot' the inter-class series, was held. The victorious Senior Illlxtllll consisted ot' ltlloris Raymond, lienora Deviny, Charlotte Gibbons, and Mary Reardon. In March the annual concert of Orchestra A was given and Mary Kane, Margaret liougrhlin, Mildred Johnson and John Zl'lIl2lltlS took part. 'l'wo weeks later the preliminary Inter-High Debates were held and tht- vietorious fl0lIlIll0I'Ct' Team had three members of this class on it: Mary Reardon Floris Raymond, and VVinifred O'Grady. On May 1, Evelyn Rhodeuizer took part in the Declaiming' t'ontest for the third time. A week later the Senior Banquet was held at the State Mutual Restaurant. 'l'oasts were given by Marion Hill, Esther Hinckel, Katherine Kirwan, Richard Anderson. and Randolph Engstrom, our classmates, and Mr. Boyden of the faculty. Thus ended the history of the remarkable class of 1924-B. Since this record was written, before the end of the school year, the author was unable to record the most important events, those connected with graduation. After reading this history of my beloved class, of course I was desirous of knowing what the members of the Class had done since 1924. I eagerly turned to Mae to ask her and she told me what they had been doing in 1934 when she had last seen them. l eould tell you her story, but l shall leave it to her since she is better able to do so than I. 4 tl 68211155 Q9ratinn, 192433 ORATION ON THOMAS W'OODROW WILSON CARL RANDOLPH i:NGs'PRoM N the presidential election of 1912 the people of the United States chose a man who was pos- sessed of high ideals and character, to servo - - as the chief executive of their great democracy. This leader, who was destined not only to be one of America 's greatest leaders, but of the entire world was Thomas Woodrow Wilson. Wilson made a great leader because he had faith in himself, he was great because he clearly saw what the human race longed for, he was great because he courageously fought to put forth his high ideals for the prosperity and happiness of America. During his administration he persistently exem- plified his high ideals for his country. The work he did and the struggle he maintained to establish peace among the chaotic powers of the world will tax the skill of great historians to fully describe. Woodrow Wilson, the twenty-eighth president -of the United States, was born at Staunton, Virginia, on the twenty-eighth day of December, in the year 1856. He was the son of a Presbyterian clergyman and received a strict moral training during his boy- hood. While a student at Princeton University he wrote against the cabinet system in Washington, courageously attacking the secrecy and shirking of responsibility that characterized the administration. VVhile he was studying under the direction of Dr. G. Stanley Hall at John Hopkins University Dr. Hall stated that Wilson was one of the most mature students and quite a marked man even in those days. ln the field of literature he proved himself a genius. He wrote the Life of George Washington, a History of the American People, and the New Freedom, besides a collection of essays in which he discussed public men and authors with wisdom, not surpassed for many years in either hemisphere. For twelve years he held the professorship of Jurisprudence and Politics at Princeton University. As a pedagogue, he understood the complex nature of college students and impressed them with his genius of making clear and comprehensive interpretation of the problems that confronted them. ln the year 1902 he was elected president of Princeton University. After eight suc- cessful years of service there, he voluntarily resigned because a vast endow- ment left by a wealthy benefactor was made subject to conditions that he believed would seriously harm the institution. He gave up his post that he might preserve an ideal. Later he was elected Governor of New Jersey on the strength of his reputation as a vigilant and courageous fighter against machine politics and underground corruption. He emancipated his state from the yoke the trusts had imposed on it. NVith his lofty ideals and by virtue of 41 ffiyll School of lltlYltllll'l't't' his statt-smanship antl keen knowlt-dge of govt-rnment ht- rose from Governor to the highest otiit-e in the land: a man who owed this elevation to his pure lovt- of truth antl not to tht- favor and intrigue of class and capital.

RE.-XRDON WILL tell to you now, just as I told VVinnie O'Grady as we sat in Green Hill Park, of tlu- doings of the nu-mbers of the 192-L-B class as l saw them ten years ago in 193-l. l had been teaching sehool in the Oldtown School for the Deaf Sa Dumb for nearly ten years when, in l9Z'l-l, an uncle of mine died leaving me some twenty million dollars. ln order to spend some ot' the money, and to gain a rest from my labors. l made up n1y mind to travel. deciding to 'Arlen- Anu-riea First. l came tirst to my old honu- town. now the xm IX prosperous city of Worcester. l rode in from ' ' llouse l thought l'd get out and walk as l would be better able to see the sights. As l alighted at the eorner of llighland Street l heard such screams and shouts ensuing from the Vourt llonse that l stood stoek still. l hadn't lu-ard sneh talk in all my years in Uldtown. l was reeollet-ting, when a truek driver, fairly on top ol' me, blew the horn. fb -f l quickly came hack to earth and stepped from the path ofthe truck. l gazed after it and saw Raymond Ilanna sitting up very straight behind the wheel ol' a truck, on the side ot' which l read: IIANNA Zia SON 'l'lN VAN MANU- l At l'llRl'lRS. l stepped quickly to the enrb, resolved to investigate the shonting in the llouse of Justice. l made my way hastily to the eourt room, and nearly passed away when l saw the cause of it all. 'llhere was Anna Rice, a prominent lawyeress, telling the jury, in no low tone of voice that her elient of course was not guilty, and entreating them to see the case in the right light. l sat down to watch the procedure, but the jury was filing out to reach a verdict and very solemnly Judge liewis Dexter dismissed the court. I went up to Nan as l saw her going to the door, intent upon introducing myself. but there was no need for it as she recognized me imnu-diately. She told me that she was living in Bachelorette Apartments on Highland Street, and in- sisted that I have lunch with her. VVe started up Highland Street, talking eagerly. Half way up the hill Anna started across the street telling me that her home was on the other side. Wlu-n we reached the middle of the road a noise from Main Street attracted our attention. We had just turned about when I suddenly felt a blow and found myself sitting down. I was dazed. I heard the squeals of what sounded like children. and the deep UI beg your pardon of a man. I stood up and turned around just as Anna said, Well Dick Anderson, explain yourself. VVhat a sight to behold! There sat Dick and two small boys riding down Highland Street in an express wagon! MO, began Dick, I've been running a number of chain restaurants from VVorcester to Kalamazoo, so when I get a week off l enjoy myself. Indeed. thought I. that was very much like 44 High School of Conzmerre Dick's sense of enjoyment. We chatted for a few moments, but the lawyeress had to return to court so we continued on our way. Anna had very attractive apartments, and as we ate our meal we talked of old friends. She told me that she had defended a strenuous case the day before. Judith Pemstein was crossing Main Street when Tom Keevan dropped his purse from an aeroplane, hitting her on the head and inflicting serious injuries. Anna had defended Keevan, so of course he won. It seems that Evelyn Crossley was nearing the pinnacle of her career as a poetess when she had the misfortune to fall in love, and was now creating poems over the dish pan. Charlie Harris, she informed me, was doing very well as a pawn broker. HOf course. added Nan, tfHe is very familiar with money, you will remember he worked in a bank. Nathan Bass was making his mark in this world as an auctioneer. Anna had to return to the Court House, and after promising to spend the night with her, I decided to Hlook the town over. Anna told me that if I kept my eyes open around the Post Office I would get a surprise. I walked toward the center of the city, but by the time I had arrived at Harrington Corner I had also arrived at the conclusion that I was attracting a great deal of attention. The cause then came to my mind. My clothes surely did look as if I had come in on the last train from Oldtownl In order to improve my appearance l entered a very dignified looking store where Richard Healy's once stood and when about to enter the door I glanced at the gold lettering on it. There I read: CARMODY Sz MORT, FASHION EXPERTS. The names sounded familiar. but I did not wonder very long. .Inst inside il encountered the FASHION EXPERTS going to lunch, Miss Frances Moore and Miss Catherine Carmody. We talked of old times and l told them my tale of woe. They sympathized with me after gazing at my -.lepleted apparel, and saw that every want of mine was filled. In the dress department I saw Edith Bell posing as a model for the Paris creations. VVhen l left the store I started down toward the Post Office, and just opposite it I stood like one struck with paralysis. A large electric sign hung over the sidewalk, which read as follows: KIRWAN'S BRIDAL SHOPPE YOU FUR- NISH THE MONEY NVE FURNISH THE REST. There was my surprise. Katherine Kirwan had taught school for but six months when she left to engage in business-what kind, I had never known. I hurried up the stairs and entered the establishment. There was Kitty having a very heated dis- cussion with a very nervous bride-to-be. The girl wanted dawn colored stockings to wear on her wedding trip, while Kitty was doing all within her power to convince the girl that scarlet silk was just exactly what she needed. When the down-hearted girl left it was not without the scarlet stockings. HWell good night. exclaimed Kitty, Ulf it isn't Mae Reardon. Are you getting married too? I hurried to explain that that was not the reason for my presence there, but I asked f'Is that the way you treat your customers? Are those your selling tactics? O no, said she, 'KI don't do that very often but l simply have to get rid of these scarlet stockings. I wouldn't dare wear them myself. 'Didnlt you recognize that girl? That's Alice Laidlaw. She is engaged to marry a very prominent prize fighter. We then sat down and talked of old class mates at Commerce. Alice Snyder had moved to Brookfield soon after graduation. and soon after that had 45 High Srhfml of KJIUIIIIIIFFFK' marriod tho oonstahlo's son. Sho was quito prosporous now, having hoon soon in XVoroostor in a Ford ooupo not long hoforo my visit.

As tho next porformor was hoing announood I was tuoking away my various holongings, 46 High School of CIUIIilIl?7'l'? so l was not very attentive until a young man, in a fine tenor voice. began to sing. I gasped and almost stood up in my bewilderment. Bill Bragg. ai prominent tenor, had just returned from his study in Europe. I smiled as I thought that we never appreciated the fine music we heard in Room 1, when Bill sat there as a senior. The spotlight was then turned to the farther entrance and in the midst of the pink light Leona Robbins sallied forth, carrying a saxophone a great deal larger than herself. She played very sweetly, but soon the spotlight left her and again sought the entrance. Out came Frances. her twin, in a singing and dancing specialty. The twins as of old, Frances taking the noisier part and 'tOna making a splendid background. I was overjoyed at seeing such a number of my old friends so successful, but the last number caused my cup of joy to over flow. HSpinney Ryan in a toe dancing specialty was all that could be desired. We left the hall very much elated and hurried home. In the morning I thought that I needed a new hat after my experiences of the previous afternoon for I decided to go to New York. I went into a very fashionable hat shop on Main Street, and when just inside, l met the owner. Fannie Clapp. She fitted me out in a new straw bonnet, and I made my way to the Union Depot. As ever, I was just too late, the train had gone. l took a seat in the waiting room to watch the passing crowds and to while away my time. I first however secured a copy of Peg Fogarty 's book, ADVIVIC TO HENI'ICt'KED HIISBANIJS, to read while on the train. l sat dreaming when suddenly a man called out the next train for Boston. I looked up quickly to see Willriir Campbell calling out the trains. The next time he called it was my train for New York. I entered, found a comfortable seat, and settled down. Very shortly afterward a very prosperous looking gentleman took the seat beside me. l glanced sideways and thought that l recognized the features of Theodore VVohlbruck. .lust at that moment he glanced at me, and I was correct. Ile was now a well-to-do manufacturer of ear rings, and was travelling to New York to purchase a new stock. We began to talk of school days and then of class mates. 'tYou know, said Teddy, 'tAdrian Fhoquette is now guiding the destiny of New York t ity. Go to see him when you get there, you will never know him. This did not stun me for Adrian had once guided the destiny of the l92-L-B class at f10Illlllt'I'Ct', Helen Fahill, he told me, was now going throughout the country giving lectures on THIS VALUE OF AN EDIIFATION. Charlotte Gibbons and Beatrice Breault were in Boston running an agency for Lonely Hearts, but the joke of it all was that neither of them had ever married. May Berger had established a Mission School in China for the conversion of pag'ans, and had Helen Griffin, Julia Greene and Alice Mcllonald as' members of her staff, UTed then noticed the title of the book I held. Advice to henpecked husbands, said he, Ml guess l'll get a copy for a friend of mine, he married Ruth Ford about a year agof' Arthur Bellerose and Dina Kaplan had entered the movie world. llina was a successor of Theda Bara and Arthur was succeeding Charlie Vhaplin. '4And. added Teddy, HHe can entertain his audience much better than Charlie ever could. Enis Leofanti and Helen lXIcCartin were the two head cooks on the finest vessel afloat, the 'tllorothy Marion, named after Dot liewis. The Captain of the ship was Paul Baeklin. At this point we drew 47 Hiyh Sflmol of CfJllIlllFft'P into the New York Station. I went innnediately to the City Hall and took the escalator to the top tioor. I paused on the threshold of the Executive Chambers and watched Adrian signing a pile of nicely typed letters. Ile noticed the shadow in the doorway and looked up. I smiled and was instantly recognized. VVe talked for a moment, but I did not wish to take up too much of the busy IHHIIIS time. 'tWait a minute, said he, and he touched a button on the desk. Almost instantly his secretary stood smiling in the doorway. There stood Miss Margaret lioughlin, otherwise known as Peg, We chatted away but as we turned to enter her private ottice a man entered. Ile placed a large sheet ot' paper before Adrian and they began to talk like old friends. It was a permit to run a circus in the New York t'ity Itlair Grounds. I glanced at the signature and read D. IIEANIJICR BRENNEN. 'llhe name sounded familiar so I looked up, but the man was gone. I looked at Peg in astonish- ment, but she smiled and said, Why lieander has been running a eireus for years and has met with great success. It was about tive o'eloek when Adrian again pressed the button and dismissed Peg t'or the evening. Ile told her also that she might have the following day otf. Peg insisted that I stay at her home while in the city, and we planned to see a show that evening and to attend llrenm-n's t'ireus the next day. As we walked toward her home I kept my eyes wide open. Suddenly I nudged Peg and said, IJoesn't that. look like Allen Iieekwith coming along like a million dollars! Ult is he, said Peg, Evidently you haven 't seen any billboards around. Well Allen has used his head to amass a fortune. We turned a corner and a large bulletin eont'ronted us, upon which I read: WEAR IiEt'KWl'l'II'S KIPPY lIA'I'S ANIJ ISE IN S'l'YIiE, and to the right was a picture ot' Allen wearing a tine felt hat. I5eckie had surely used his head for onee in his lil'e. We arrived at I'eg's home which was in the Iiolaek Apartments, a large building owned by Ifraneis Iiolaek a former class mate of ours. We hurried through our evening meal and started for the theatre. 'l'he I4'ollies were playing that evening and to our surprise we noticed a number of old friends. Elizabeth Papineau, Gladys Olson, Margaret Kiley, Ilelen Iieskel and Anna Bluskas were in the front row of the chorus. We hurried lrom the theatre as it was growlng late, but when we got into bed we again began to talk of old friends. Annette Anderson, who played the piano for us at school was now touring the country as an accompanist. Iler employer, Einar Backstrom, was the successor of Faruso. Florence Parker had moved to Northampton shortly after graduation and had since married one of the t'oolidge boys, who by the way, was succeeding his father at the White House. Florence surely made a splendid ttFirst Lady I thought. I was informed that Sarah Madden was one of the head stenographers in the New York t'ity Hall, and so that she might not be lonesome her old pal. Jeanette McGarrell had also come to New York. -Ieanette was instructing the young hopefuls in a private school. on the subject of etiquette. Cora Thorpe was running sight seeing busses through New York's Fhinatown. HBea McQuilIan. I Donnelly and Grace O'Connor were running a number of chain bakeries which they called the BLVE AND GOLD SYSTEM. Just at this point I fell asleep, Peg still talking of our old class mates. In the morning Peg and I began to do up the housework, preparatory to going to the circus in the afternoon. I 48 High School of Conznzerce was putting some milk into the ice chest when a man's head appeared in the doorway. Want any ice today? he asked. HNo, not todayw called Peg from the kitchen, but I stood looking at him with my mouth open. There stood Robert Millet with a one hundred pound cake of ice on his back! VVe finally got started for the circus. As we strolled along we chatted gaily. At the corner I heard a voice say. HCome along Fido. Come Fisheake. Come on. I turned to see 'LBetsy,' Rheinheimer walking along with about seven dogs. Betsy had always loved animals, but this was rather unusual. We stopped to talk and we found out that she was caring for the dog depart- ment in the Reynolds Dumb Animal School. This school was financed by 'fBilll' Reynolds a retired millionaire. We boarded an elevated street railway car at this point and in a short time arrived at the fair grounds. We went to purchase our tickets and at the window was Blanche Marcus. VVhen just inside the gates we encountered John Zemaitis, shouting that he had Peanuts Chewing-gum, and Popcorni' for sale. Going along farther we saw a crowd moving toward the swimming tank. We followed and there saw Jeanette Peloquin, Lillian Regan, Hilja Niemi, Alice Orgard. Mary Stokowski and Violet Sundstrom thrilling the crowd with their fancy diving. We stood for a few moments and then moved on. The next thrill we received made our hair stand on end. Gladys Beckland was doing a fancy cakewalk on the back of a galloping horse! Seeing a number of people gazing skyward we followed suit. John Hussey, Florence Belair, Mary Kane, Augusta Kesseli and Dot Lanigan were walking the tight rope and much to our delight and astonishment they all reached the other side in safety. We walked into one of the side shows and there saw Benjamin Levine as a sword swallower. A man was caged in, whom we thought to be about ten feet tall. ln front was a sign ttThe Tallest Man in Captivity. Mr. Anthony Cronin. Size 9 feet 7 U10 inches tallfl Nora Fitzgibbons, Irene Hackett and Helen Guyer were sitting in a corner charming snakes and twining them about the poles of the tents. Emily Hamblin was showing off three green Maltese kittens. -Inst outside we saw a number of the fair sex riding some fine old elephants. I recognized among them, Leona Butwiewicz, Esther Carlson, Gertrude Farnon, Rita Dean and Rose Lester. When we decided to leave we were in the midst of a large crowd nearing the entrance. All of a sudden Leo Lapierre stubbed his toe and fell, face downward. The crowd trampled over him and it was found necessary to call the ambulance. When it arrived we recognized Clifton Hosmer as the driver. The back was opened, and lo and behold! There stood Dr. Lawrence Barsky, in a long white coat, and Miss Lenora Deviny, in a nurse 's uniform, prepared to try their skill upon the poor, unfortunate Leo. VVe again went on our way but once outside the grounds we lost all sense of direction. We spied a police officer and made our way toward him. Peg smiled and began HWill you please-well if it isn't Francis Sullivanf' We told him our tale of woe and he placed us safely on a trolley car. We had to get off at the corner to get something for supper, and we entered a very large. modern market. Just inside we saw Wilfred Robert, the proprietor. walking about. He waited upon ns, and then told us that if we went up to the office we would see a number of old friends. We followed directions, and met a regular Commerce Colony. Rita Finnegan was head book-keeper, and has as 49 Hifh School of COlIl1I1l'fl'F J , her assistants, Catherine Boyle, Elsa Brandt and Bessie Bromsky. Mr. Roberts' private secretary was Alice Quarforth, and the cashier was Freda Brikmau. Tom Carrigan was employed as head butcher. We left and just outside met Alice Quist. She had had a fine position teaching in Worcester but the Super- intendent of Schools in New York City, Mr. Corneilus Fitzgerald, had sent for her. and she was now teaching in the New York Iiatin School. She informed us that Alice Norgren had made herself famous in Worcester as a flute player. llelen Ostergard was now private secretary to Paul llaran, successor to the President of Clark Ilniversity. Flora Berthel was now an official police woman on the beach at Atlantic City, and Estelle McCarthy was her superior officer. Barbara Talbot. Evelyn Noonan and lioretta Splaine were running a very successful Beauty Shop on Main Street. George Mctleachy was now Chief of Police in Worcester, and added to his force Carl Miller, Arthur' liockwood and Carl Nygard. l'eg and I strolled along toward home and got in just in time I'or supper. I then decided that I would return to Worcester the next day. In the morning I busied myself packing and was ready to leave about two o'clocli, bag and baggage. I started toward the depot Init had not gone far when I heard a familiar voice call Wait a minute, Mae. There stood IVIillicent Beane. Well where did you drop from, said I. 'tl havent heard trom you for about four months. O, Hilid She. la-t me explain. After I 1 visited you four months ago I went out tot hicago and got amarvellousposition. The t'hairman of the School Board there, James Bourke, gave me the job ol' go- ing from school to school giving a series of little talks on Good Behavior in the Class Boom, I had to sit up each night preparing my topics for the following day, so I had little time for writing letters. I am now on a leave of absence for I got worn out from talking so much. Where are you going ft I replied that I was going back home, 'tBut, I added, HI have grown so fond of city life again that I can't imagine how I shall be able to stay in Oldtown again. Millie thought' a moment and said, t'Come on back to my rooms and I'll pack up and go with you. We can get an apartment like Anna Rice has, and share expenses. I'lI be the boss, to keep the peace. Not peace, I thought sadly, but pieces. We went to her rooms and I waited while she packed her grip, and once more started for the station. Millicent then suggested that we buy some new clothes to take back with us, and led the way to the most fashionable store on the street. At the shoe department Mildred Peterson saw that our wants were supplied, and then we travelled along. VVe picked out coats and were waited on by Agnes Norsigian. Our hats we purchased from Hazel Nelson, and gloves from another Commerce girl, Edith Nass. XVe boarded the train for Worcester and settled down to talk. Just as we got comfortable a boy came through the train selling chocolates. Both of us purchased, and dreamily I took the wrapper from my package. l was about to eat a Murphy Chocolate Bar, manufactured by the Murphy Cor- poration. This corporation. I read, was made up of four Commerce Murphys, Arline, Catherine Theresa. Katherine Rita, and Margaret. Millicent then began to chatter. Ella Olsen and Theresa Edlin were running a hairdressing parlor in VVorcester. All of lVorcester had been startled a week before when the Mayor, Harold Ouimet, had eloped with his stenographer. Talk about soft jobs said Millicent. Listen to this. Ranny Engstrom and John Ward have 50 Higlz Srhnol of Commerre a stand outside New York's largest theatre where mothers can check their babies while they watch the performance. Ethel Baker and Edward Bogage were dealers in stocks and bonds on Wall Street in New York. Fannie Gordon and Mary Ward were both married to millionaires and were living a life of luxury. Finally we both grew hungry and went into the dining car. Alice Casey was in there. monarch of all she serveyed, for the dining car was under her supervision. Mary Coffey was the head waitress and had as her assistants Rachel Oonger, Hazel Cote, Esther Ferguson, Mildred Fine and Vogel Freed. After we had satisfied our appetites we returned to our seats after purchasing a Worcester newspaper. The names of two Commerce boys were in the head lines. Dan Healy and Walter Frykholm had been held up and robbed of sixty cents the night before. Of, exclaimed my companion, 'tThat 's too much money for any fellow to carry around at nightln ln the personals l found that Eleanor Foley, Lucy Small, Esther Smith, Annie Selzo, Elizabeth Francke and Melissa Goldsberry were gone on a pleasure trip to the north pole. Martha Goldberg was opening an exclusive gift shop in the new Charles Grace Building on Pearl Street. Antoinette Jeannette and Grace Zolla had opened offices as public stenographers. Bertha Josephs was starting on a tour around the world with Beatrice Griffiths, Helen Grogan and 'Dorothy Hendrickson. Irene Scudds was teaching in the west. She had a class of cow boys in evening school. A teachers convention was being held in Worcester, some of the speakers of the day being Mary Hickey from Spencer, Mildred Hinckel from Paxton, Margaret Horton from North Grafton, Esther lngman from North Brookfield, Elsie Johnson from Shrewsbury and Edith Jones from Boylston. Grace Lawler and Leona Lapin were swimming instructors at the Y. YV. C. A. 'Ivy Ledger and Viola Johnson had won fame as feminine boxers. Jeanette Lipshitz and Anna Cowitz were writing articles for the Worcester Telegram entitled 'tLaugh and Grow Fat. Lillian Cotter, Hose Marone, Helen Mann, Alice Lundstrom and Ellen Lorden were running a day nursery and having a fine time. Elizabeth and Satenig Hovigimian turned out to be famous historians and were to lecture in Worcester.

Leander was a quiet, studious boy during his first two years at the school on the hill, but when he attained the dignity of a Junior, he began to get the reputation of being a strong debater. Brennen made up for lost time in his Senior year by being president of the Assembly, captain of the Senior debating team, a member of the varsity debating team, and editor of school notes for the Post as well as for the Mercury. He intends to enter either a. school of accounting or a law school, however, we should not be surprised to find him Editor-in-chief of the New York Times in time to come.

If the energy he saves by being silent is put into his future work, we all know that something will be accomplished. Maybe it is because of the lassies that he keeps so quiet, but it does not seein so by his actions when caught in the midst of a group of the gentler sex.

A strange thing about Effie is that she seems to get knowledge without study. At least she never over works, as her cheeks are as pink as a June Rose. She is a good scholar and besides, we understand that she is quite skilled in the art of dressmaking. With so many talents as Effie possesses, it must be rather difficult to choose one profession, but she has done it. She is very earnest in her desire to have M. D. after her name.

Prominence in school activities does not keep her from getting good marks, and yet she does not worry like most of us do when our lessons aren 't done. Lenora was a fine Latin scholar and felt badly when she had finished the eourse. We aren't sure whether it was the teacher, or beloved, Vergil which she hated to leave. Lenora served as Vice-President of Bl'lf0lIl2ll't and was a member of Revelers for a year.

Her cheerful disposition has won for her many friends. Bess is an excellent pianist and has been the center of many a happy gathering at the piano. May for- tune smile upon her efforts and make her future bright. Britomart FRANCES GORDON Noise is not nf'c'ex.wu'y for Suz'c'e.ss. The above applies to Frances, for although she is rather quiet, her marks show that success has been her goal. Smile as you gow is her motto, and her friends profit by it. Of course, it goes without saying that this has eon- tributed to her success. Frances intends to go to Normal School. Some pupils are going' to be lucky, for Fran', has the ability and patience to make an ideal teacher. How about dancing, Franl ? 'Still like it as much as ever? Britomartg Revellersg Honor Pupil CHARLES GRACE A Mani of Mu.s'ie.' ' Charles, our Music Editor, will most probably be after Mr. Dann 's place in the music world one of these days. A mem- ber of the Assembly, a musician in Orchestra B, also an active member of our Radio Club, all go to help make him a popular young man. NVe all know that it takes an accom- plished musician to get in the Consolidated High School Orchestra. Well, Charlie is in it. Nui Sed.

' When Helen first came to Conunerce from St. Paulls she was :L deinnre and bashful maid, but this did not hinder her from settling down and she seldom failed to recite when called on in any of her classes. She was not a girl who cared for athletics or many of the other activities of the school, but was determined to better her education. This she did, and in doing so she made a great many of friends. Helen, we wish you the best of luck in the business world. HELEN OLIVE GUYER Merry maiflcvi., free from rare. Helen is one of our classmates who, at first glance, im- presses one as being extremely quiet. However, one soon finds that she is exactly the opposite. We all like to talk with Helen, for she is not only a pleasant eonversationalist, but always has a good word for everyone. Outside of school hours she is fond of dancing and music, and was :1 nieinber of the Consolidated Chorus. Helen is considering a business course. Success is undoubtedly hers. IRENE MAY HACKETT To be merry best Iuwnizvs her. Irene dropped into our ranks at Connnerce in l92l. She caine from the Fitchburg High School a stranger, but in very short time became one of the very popular girls of her class. Billy , as she is commonly known, is going to make some business man a splendid stenographer, as that is her favorite lesson. She is, as many of her friends know, fond of ai good time, but never lets work go because of it. 'We know she will succeed in her future career whatever it may be.

Raymond is a quiet, unassuming gentleman who forged his way through the four years of high school life in a profitable manner. Although he did not enter many of the school activities, he seemed to look with approval on the attempts of others. Ever quiet and dignified, he almost passed unnoticed but once intimate with him, he was found to be a young man with clever, witty ideas and a broad sense of humor. XVherever the future leads him, we firmly fbelieve that HRayH will find success. PAUL RAYMOND HARAN 'fSuch men. are hard to find. Paul is another one of our deep thinkers. Anyone that knows' him is sure to say he will be a success some day, if he will ever get over his bashfulness. As a track man he did not star, but carrie out when the call was issued and showed his school spirit by giving the best he had, setting an ex- ample for one to follow. If his future happiness depends upon his manly spirit, great success will surely attend his efforts. CHARLES FREDERICK HARRIS Nothing great was ever achieved without entlulxiflsnz. Charlie is a firm believer in the above statement, and so works hard, never coming into class without a lesson pre- pared. He is one of the many seniors who welcomed the Freshman when they entered upon their High School Career. Charlie can always be seen in the eorridors surrounded by a merry group of boys and girls, all laughing and talking. Now a member of the Merchants National Bank, we have no doubt but that some day he will be prominent on XVall Street.

A quiet, self-possessed, good-natured girl is Dorothy. Few of us are really acquainted with this very quiet girl, but we all admit that she is well worth knowing. She has not taken part in many of our school activities, not because she lacks school spirit, but because she is modest and shy. She has not decided what course she will pursue after graduation, but we feel that a girl of her disposition will be sueeessful in whatever she adopts.
