PROLOGUE
The Caravan hath started on its Journey,
The Goal is still beyond the Vision Dim:
The Pen is at the Top of That Which Follows
And the Spirit moving, we must now Begin.
A SONNETBy Dr. James Chalmers
Written for the Dial as a Benediction to the Class of 1925.
When all man's days are numbered with the past,
When the sun of life is sinking in the West,
And fast the falling shadows speak of rest,
When care and toil and pain are o'er at last,
And Gabriel with his trumpet blows the blast
That starts the waking wretch and calls the blest
Alike to judgment; then at His behest
Who rules the world and made the heavens fast,
May thou receive the plaudit of "Well done,
Thou good and faithful servant." And may none
Who make the world seem brighter by their stay,
Be aught but stars revolving round that Sun
Who taught to man that "He and I are One,
And who believes shall have eternal day."
To the Class of 1925
"As a rule we like the man who thinks the
weather is going to clear up, better than we do
the one who is sure it has set in for a long rainy
spell."
—NIXON WATERMAN.
"This is the place. Stand still, my steed,
Let me review the sceneAnd summon from the Shadowy Past
The forms that once have been."

FLORA M. GREEXOUGHFramingham, Massachusetts
"Believe in your mission, greet life with a cheer;
There's big work to do, and that's why you are here."
The above is the last message Miss Greenough ever gave to the girls of F. X. S.
She came to Framingham in 1914 as a teacher of history and civics in the Regular
department. For ten successive years the school was fortunate enough to have her on
the faculty. A true believer in "There's big work to do . . .," she planned an exten-
sive European cruise for the summer of 1924 to better fit herself for her profession.
The trip was taken after years of planning and anticipation, and those who heard from
her could tell us how happy she was during the trip. After her return to U. S. late in
the summer she became ill, and though we expected her return to F. XT . S. soon after
school opened, such was not to be. In September Miss Greenough took the Last
Journey from which there is no return. Beneath a rather strict and perhaps stern
exterior was a loving heart, sympathetic and helpful, as only those who really knew
her found. F. N. S. can surely regret the loss of such a teacher whose last journey in
life was taken so that she might be able to tell us about the things we would enjoy and
the knowledge of which would help us grow.

GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
While at F. N. S. many that we admire have dropped anchor for a while—but like
"ships that pass in the night" they have drifted beyond our port,
Leaving behind them

Their words of cheer,
Their clear vision and
Their high ideals—as inspirations to us all.

AN IF FOR CLASSES
If you can saunter back in gay September,
And bring with you your pep from Summer life,
If you can plague the freshmen who are snappy,And yet not overdo that fun at night:
—
If you can go without all Hallowe'en excitement
And substitute the athletic craze,
By scoring first at the fall tennis tournament,And second in the basketball games:—
If, when Christmas bells are ringing,
And the snow comes flying fast,
Do you listen to the carol singing,
As the senior girls go past?
If you can come back from the holiday vacation,
And of serious thought give all the stress,
By allowing Student Council to start sensation
And give each girl a chance to do her best:—
If you can go to class without forgetting
That the real thing in the sewing line must beA suitable and up-to-date container,
In order that good technique one can see:—If you can master all the chemistry analysis
Without spending all your time in lab,
And prove the cause of Oxidation or Hydrolysis,
And flunk all tests without becoming sad:—
If sometimes you should desire an emblemTo prove your class quite worthy of a ring,
Then as students you have mastered every problem,And are worthy of all praises it may bring.
The Class of 1927.

ENTERING CLASS
WE have settled down at last after having been hopelessly lost for some time.
Our Senior sisters and the upperclassmen have been such a big help to us.
How many of us have consulted our "Freshman Bibles"? But that is a secret.
Do we regret Hallowe'en night? Ask any Freshie—she knows.
Just loads of excitement for election day, too, and campaigning! With the suffra-
gette returns we had our new leaders.
Note this hint that everyone should heed. Never ask a Freshie, even innocently,
—"Are you working hard?" Dire results may follow.
We Freshies even had representatives on the Harvard-Yale teams. Things prom-
ised to be exciting for the class games.
Christmas vacation and back to home and mother. But what is ten days?
On our return, talk of Student Government spread and was tried in the Chem.
Department, beginning with a representative council an' everything. The Freshmen
began to play their part in the school activities.
And then what sweet triumph it was when the little Freshies carried off, with
flying colors, the class basketball championship.—Yea, verily, "Labor hath its reward."

THE Class of 1925 adopted Shirley as their Class Baby because, through her

CLASS HYMN
From our hearts, O Lord, we offer
Unto Thee sincerest praise
For Thy love which has upheld us,
Glorifying all our days.
Life has shown us naught to daunt us,
Purest joy, triumphant pain,
—
And we turn to Thee for guidance,
That this courage may remain.
So we lift to Thee our voices.
Breathing low yet full of praise.
That Thy love will never fail us,
And will lead through unknown ways.
Keep us humble, make us steadfast.
Clear our eyes that we may see
How the joys of life about us
Are but shadows without Thee.
—Faith Taylor.

THE HOUSEHOLD ARTS TRAVELS
INthe fall of 1922 our class began its journey through Framingham Normal School.
We were greeted and lodged in the big Horace Mann dormitory and in various
village houses.
To break the strangeness that perhaps we all felt, we were invited to an Acquaint-
ance Party, where we became acquainted with all the dignified upperclassmen and
found out that they really were human and friendly.
The Hallowe'en Party came soon and in all our fright we were initiated. It was
awful to pass through the black, ghost filled passages, but when we realized that this
made us full-fledged Framingham students it wasn't so bad.
In November the much looked for and annual Harvard-Yale game was played.
The Harvard team won. Following the game came the banquet, which proved to be a
delightful feast.
Christmas week meant a glorious vacation for all of us, and we packed our bags
amidst much fun and laughter. But, before we left for home, we had a splendid
Christmas party in Peirce Dining Hall.
After Christmas came the parade of F. N. S. Middy Blouses and Chemistry
Charts. We, too, had to add our newly made ones to the public exhibition, so showed
them off daily. These were two hardships in our travels, but in May the Junior Prom
came and drove away all cares and worries.
Now again we come to packing bags— this time for a long summer vacation.
With some surprise at how fast the summer had gone we straggled back to Fram-
ingham in September, 1923.
When the Hallowe'en Party came this year we were among the happy people that
put the Freshmen through the initiation stunts.
My friends, I am sure you will be glad to know that you can call upon any of our
class when you wish for pattern makers or jugglers, for our Sewing Department drilled
and drilled us on correct curves, lines and darts in drafting, while the Chemistry
Laboratory turned out class juggling contests daily.
This year at the famous Harvard-Yale game Yale was the victor. While speeches,
cheers and songs were filling the program, the chef sent in a cake resembling a football
field, with players and all. This showed that the chef was a good old friend of ours.
Christmas and its sentiments called us home again to celebrate a few days. They
passed much too rapidly and soon we were back at school hard at work.
On February 13 we had our Md. Sr. Prom. Everyone was more than thrilled
before the event, and after the dance no one could find words to express the "most
thrilling prom, ever," etc.
In March our class presented "Peg o' My Heart." The wonderful actors and
actresses we never had known were in our class blossomed out in full and made our
[109]
THE DIAL
Md. Sr. play a most successful affair. I'm sure everyone who saw it fell head over
heels in love with "Peg" and poor Michael.
The Field Day at the Health Camp did not give the Md. Jr. Class any too manyhonors, but one thing can be said, '"We sure amused the crowd with our Stunt."
In June we packed and packed and still had to leave some of our treasures in
Horace Mann, so many things had accumulated during the two years at Framingham.
Many of our class members stayed to help at Graduation, but most of us scampered
home as fast as we could.
In September we returned ''Really Truly Seniors." On the back hill we found
many men digging away at our prospective athletic field.
Then Dr. Meier took us out to Millwood Farm, where we had the best picinic
ever. We certainly appreciated the work which the girls did in preparing the chicken
and corn. My, it even makes our mouths water to think of those drumsticks now.
The divisions were soon set to their tasks. The House Practice division began its
job of dodging cockroaches to find kettles and pans in Crocker Hall. The teaching
division wandered far and wide giving its valuable information to big and small chil-
dren. The third division produced all of Paris's latest creations and were the envy of
the whole big city of Framingham.
After many teas to faculty and students, the annual Mock Man Dance and
Harvard-Yale game loomed into view. Once more Harvard was victorious and received
the honors at the banquet which followed.
A new division of girls came into Crocker now, and theirs was the task of planning
and serving a Christmas banquet for all of us. Wasn't it a wonderful dinner? Every-
thing tasted just great and such a good time as we had reading the favors which Santa
Claus was holding. At the carol singing, which came that night, we all put into
practice Mr. Archibald's training and received in return candy kisses from those to
whom we sang. But good old Crocker had hot chocolate and cake ready for us when
we returned from singing and this tasted better than chocolate ever before had tasted.
One morning, early, early, the loud clanging fire bell in Crocker rang. Nightmares
were forgotten and coats donned and my, such a wild scurry to get downstairs.
Miss Hall greeted us with a smile and we at once realized it was only a fire drill, so we
crawled back upstairs, all talking about the scares and the sleep which had been so
rudely intruded upon.
The vacation which soon came was a welcome one, but we were glad to get back
to school again in January, knowing that Prom came in February.
On January 30. before the Prom, the Fine Arts Club presented "Monsieur Beau-
caire." It was their first presentation and proved to be a huge success. In years to
come the F. A. C. will gain for itself a big name if the good work of this cast is kept up.
The pretty, vivid, red decorations helped gladden the hearts and assured everyone
that Valentine's Day was here.
After the February vacation and the starting of a new term we once more were
terribly busy with House Practice, teaching, and class work.

THE DIAL
On March 4, through the kindness of Mr. Workman, we were able to hear Presi-
dent Coolidge's inaugural address over the radio and felt quite proud to say we, too,
had heard the first inaugural ever broadcasted.
The Tech-Framingham Concert furnished us with a night of amusement on
March 6th and proved to be a big success as far as the audience was concerned.
Now we have only a short time left before our journey will be over. As we go out
into the world let us remember all the wonderful things Framingham has done for us,
and then, by doing our work well, we can help keep for Framingham its "Well-known
and Widely Known Good Name."

REGULAR SENIOR CLASS HISTORY
Tis the year of 1025,
Hardly a girl is still alive (?)
But remembers that morning two years ago
When a hundred and seventy of us or so
First met in Framingham.
And, wasn't it strange?
Not a face you knew,
But it didn't last long, for in a week or two
You knew me, and I knew you.
That's the spirit of Framingham.
With classes begun we surely did work,
And my, how we studied till one day with a jerk
The Seniors proclaimed that fateful day, Initiation at Framingham.
We'll give them due credit,
They did things up brown,
Or should we say black?
That better covers the ground.
Through that spooky tunnel from Crocker to May,
It seemed forty miles on your knees all the way,
That night at Framingham.
Xext, the Mock Man Dance
And the Harvard-Yale game.
'Twas Yale this year that made her name
At Framingham.
The banquet later, wasn't it great?
Shall you ever forget the turkey we ate?
Then the cheers, toasts and singing, too,
And we called for the teachers,
And they spoke, too.
In fact, I guess they always do,
In Framingham.
f 112]

Later came the joint concert,
Our glee club and Tufts'.
How we enjoyed it!
'Twasn't half long enough.
And then, 'fore we knew it,
Christmas was here,
The merriest time of the entire year.
Then home from Framingham.
When school started again
Our projects began
;
Observation week followed,
And then came plans
For our very first prom
At Framingham.
At last it arrived, the 17th of May,
Amid apple blossoms and streamers gay;
First the dinner, then dancing the whole evening through.
Say, I had a wonderful time, didn't you,
At that first prom at Framingham?
Well ! Well ! A year's gone.
My, how time flies!
It's time to pack trunks
And make our good-bys.
Just think, when we return in the fall
We'll be dignified Seniors, yes, one and all,
At Framingham!
And so, in September,
We gathered once more,
Soon to be lost in studies galore;
And isn't it fun to live in the dorms,
Especially on Friday when there's a storm?
Then I think of the time when we lived in the town,
How, with laundry, books, and umbrella laden down,
We climbed that hill in Framingham.
[ H3 ]
the dial
This year there's practice teaching,
Lesson plans and plays.
And methods, yes, in everything,
These quite fill up our days,
But yet we still find time for fun.
Let's see, our first event
Was the Acquaintance Party;
What fun for those who went!
"Two hundred girls of Harvard
Want victory today,"
And this year they won it too.
A good game, we'll all say,
Was played that stormy Saturday
In Framingham.
In my mind there is a picture;
What is it that I see?
There are many, many couples,
And they're gay as gay can be.
Now, yes, now they're dancing to the strains of wondrous song.
Yes, you're right, you've guessed it,
It's our own Valentine Prom,
The Senior Prom at Framingham.
Let's see, what's next?
Oh, yes, I know:
The Worcester Techmen came to show
The Framingham Glee Club just what they could do,
And together they sang a song or two,
And I rather enjoyed it, didn't you, that night at Framingham?
Now that our days here at Normal are o'er.
And as we delve back into memory's store,
We find that the many good times that we've had
Somehow insist on outnumbering the bad.
So this ends the story of our class, '25.
Say, girls, isn't it great to just be alive in Framingham?

VOCATIONAL CLASS PROPHECY
THINGS had been going wrong all morning at the shop, nothing seemed to fit
right and nothing seemed to meet with anyone's approval. Happiness and
dreams of prosperity gave way to discouragement and discontentment until the
noon hour came, which meant leaving for home, as it was Saturday. As the day wore
on it became hot and sultry, so I took a book and went down by the river to read and
rest my mind from the thoughts of the gowns and clothes in the shop left unfinished.
All at once it seemed as though I was drawing into the Chicago Station ; it seemed
such a long journey, as though one would never get there. Pretty soon we wrere landed.
Walking down the main street the quaint sign greeted me. It semed so familiar.

Of course I knew Orville Holt, she was one of my classmates at Normal . Tomake sure, I entered her studio. She was surprised to find me in Chicago but was so

had kept in touch with each one and I was surprised to hear of their accomplishments.

THE VOCATIONAL CLASS HISTORY
Oh! classes may come and classes may go
From our school oj high degree,
But there's never a class that can surpass
The love we bear to thee.
FAST fly the wings of Time, and now, at the end of a pleasant voyage, the Ship of
Destiny sails serenely into the harbor of Life with the Vocational Seniors as
passengers. As I stood on the shore watching them, a sudden rush of waves
brought to my feet, a black and gold book. Taking it out of the water I hurriedly
opened it to the first page, in hopes of finding the owner's name. But, lo! in gilt letters,
to my great delight, I saw the words: "Diary of the Vocational Seniors."
Look on with me, interested reader, and we shall take a peep into the busy, happy
life of the Vocational Seniors.
A rainy September day ushered seventeen lonely girls up Normal Hill. We could
be distinguished easily from the already established school ma'ams by our timid and
frightened expressions. But our courage was dauntless and it was not long before webecame staunch supporters of Framingham. The ever-present spirit of friendliness
which prevailed at Framingham soon made life seem much happier.
In order to make us feel more at home the Seniors gave an Acquaintance party,
which ended in many friendships.
After the Christmas holidays we left the dormitory to spend a year at the Voca-
tional House. How we shall miss the good times and the many friends we made!
Would we like the Vocational House? Well . . .
All doubts dispelled! House practice has started and everyone firmly declares
that "there's no place like home." For, you see, the Vocational House is the homiest
spot on the campus. Our duties were numerous. We experienced everything from
being a cook (who had to rise in the wee hours of the morning) to "kitchen canary,"
and found in each task a new delight.
Our house practice year was one delightful event, but I must not forget to tell you
of the greatest attraction of the Vocational House— our dear little Betty Mae, who
won the hearts of all who knew her with her sweet smiles and lovable disposition. She
has left us now but she will always be our "Vocational baby."
Ragmen, farmers, beggars, and hoboes! What queer looking people! and what a
rumpus! What can be going on? No wonder you ask. It's our poverty ball, and such
fun as we did have at that ball! First prize to "Ev" and "Freddy," the seediest of
hoboes.
Our first Prom! An event that we will not wish to forget.
[117]
the dial
After a happy summer vacation we came back "home" again. Such noisy shouts
of welcome assure you that we are not members of the "green" class.
What is the honor of being a Middle Junior bringing to us? Work! work! work!
Skirts, chem. charts, and special dinners. But, oh! what fun we have along with all our
trials and tribulations which puts the latter in the background.
Hot clogs, marshmallows, and coffee! When did they ever taste so good as at our
first "WT
eenie" roast? A climb up the mountain, then, puff! puff! You see we hadn't
yet started on our "Daily Dozen" class. Games, races, and ghostly stories told 'round
the fire contributed much merriment to the occasion. Who will ever forget Martha's
memorable "home run"?
One unforgetable occasion! Our silent dinner! A most uninviting table (dishes
and pans thrown helter-skelter), and the guests, why, you never saw the like, relics of
1492 to jazz babies of the present day. A constant clang, clang of pennies dropping in
a box (the centerpiece) was heard throughout the dinner, a penalty for disturbing the
silence. It was, supposedly, a silent meal, but who, when present at a dinner where
such guests were being entertained and such antics going on, could possibly look on
like a Sphinx? Utterly impossible, we all agree.
Such sadness and grief was never beheld We must leave our home, where manyhappy hours were spent, after a stay of such a short year. Why do good things always
come to an end so quickly? But, when we leave, the memories of our happy times
will come with us, never to be forgotten. Good-by, dear "Vogue House!"
Our second Prom. More excitement this year, as a few more bravely stepped out
to dance "the light fanstastic." We shall always remember this happy night.
We return once more for our last year on Normal Hill. But, although our num-
bers have dwindled to eleven, we still remain a happy family. Can it be possible that
we have attained the great height of a dignified Senior?
But with the bestowal of this dignity comes separation. A few stay at school to
peruse books, a few more are striving hard to initiate others in the arts of cooking and
sewing, and the remaining few are doing trade work. How lonesome it seems, but not
always, for what a joyous time we have when we do occasionally get together.
Our Senior Prom! As always, the most exciting event of the year.
As the close of our three happy years draws near it is with great regret that we
think of leaving Framingham, where we formed many true friendships and enjoyed so
many happy times. But as we go forth into the various walks of life it will be with new
hopes and ambitions inspired by our school, loyal friends gained, and fond memories
of the "school that means so much to us."

CLASS WILL
We, the Class of 1925, of the Framingham School for Abnormal Girls, realizing
that:
The Bird of Time has but a little wayTo Flutter—and the Bird is on the Wing
do, with utmost timidity and loathing, declare this to be our last Will and Testament.
For the benefit of friends and relatives we do solemnly swear that our "L Q." is per-
fectly abnormal, and so we dare to leave and bequeath our very valueless estate as
follows
:
To Hazel Harmon we leave our everlasting love and respect.
To next year's Regular Senior and H. A. Junior classes we leave our deepest sym-pathy and a hope for a thirty-six-hour day, so that they may have time to accomplish
all the little tasks doled out to them.
To next year's Crockerites we leave a few more leaks in Crocker's roof. It
wouldn't be home without 'em.
To Miss Prouty we leave a pair of rubber-soled shoes—we feel that she could use
them to very good advantage.
"Doris Agnes Crocker" (our cat) we leave to Bill Bradley.
The Sole Custody of the fire hose we leave to Mr. Johnson because he can take
the best care of it.
Miss Gardner's popularity we leave to the next kindergarten class that takes
Bacteriology.
To the State House we leave the Yictrola record entitled: "How Come You Do UsLike You Do Do?"
To Miss Weaver we bequeath a primary arithmetic book and the sole privilege of
making every day Saint Patrick's Day.
We recommend that a trip to the "Brook" be added to Dr. Meier's list of field
trips.
Miss Skinner's neatness and dignity we leave to the next assistant matron of
Peirce Hall.
To the next Regular Seniors we leave the key to Juliette's vocal apparatus, that
she may disclose some secrets in "Anatomy." (Juliette is the occupant of a certain
closet in Room 3, May Hall. There isn't much but bones to her now, but we knowT
she has a past.)
We leave to Miss Hall a road map for use in the Market District, and also a new
suitcase to carry rubbers in.
Lucia Buck's position as faculty hairdresser to Anna Shea.
Janet Burt's "natural timidity" to Muriel Jenner.
The key to Crocker Cooky Closet we leave to the next installment of "Coxie's
Army."
[120]
the dialEthelyn Haslam's and Hazel Byam's giggles to Susan Ballou.
To Doris Werner the "Woolworth Elevator" to take down a bit.
We leave a soundproof room in Crocker so that the girls may play "Donkey" to
their hearts' content.
Doris Miller's heavy line we give to Irene Pinney—we think she can use it to the
best advantage.
By some unexplainable miracle the present Regular Senior Class has been more or
less able to teach "Gym." We most certainly hope that this ability be inherited by the
next Senior Class in order that they may be able to stand up before a Freshman Class
and teach; talking loud enough to drown out the knocking together of their knees.
To Jeanette Johnson we bequeath Marion Henderson's heavy line with the warn-
ing: "Use it as a life saver but don't hang on it."
Dorothy Miskelly leaves her Victrola and Marion Staples leaves her reducing
records to "Babe" Gammon and Mae Temple, for they think they will benefit most by
them.
To the next Regular Senior Class we leave the most desirable privilege of choosing
the burial place of "Mr. Klapper" and "Mr. Sheridan," long famous residents of
Room 67, F. N. S.
Grace Emery's speed we leave to Lemabel Campbell with the advice to "Hold
tight—here she goes."
We leave "D" Division (H. A. Seniors) hope that their spirit will be a lasting
example for many years to come.
Maxine Blanchard's love for Framingham Centre she leaves to Madeline Monroe
and "Lee" Hurd.

Martha Conklin's curiosity to Marion Hollister.
"Al" Saunders' many crushes to whomever feels capable of preserving them.
"Babe" Kelliher's and Ethelyn Haslam's recipe for baking powderless biscuits we

The fear of being washed away by overflow from the standpipe we leave to all the
future "Freshies" at the "Yoc." House.
To Peirce Hall we leave a speaking tube in each room so that the girls may let
Miss MacDonald know each time they go into another girl's room for "one minute."
Last of all we leave no hard feelings toward anybody and with fond memories
of our years on the hill.
We appoint our honored friends, "Rose" and "Pattee," as executors of this, our

ST. PETER AND THE H. A. CLASS OF '25
2000 A.D.
SOthis was the golden gate I had visualized and dreamed of all my life? Yet in my
highest moments of exaltation I had never pictured such splendor. As I gazed
around I heard sweet strains of music. Entering the gate I stepped up to give
St. Peter my references concerning my senses of "responsibility" and "honor." I spied
Dot Gaffey singing a hymn as she strummed a harp. Picture my surprise upon seeing
Dot, my old classmate, whom I hadn't seen for years and years. Feature meeting Dotin heaven, acting as right-hand man to St. Peter. Right near by was an angel who drew
me close to adjust wings on my back. Could it be! Yes, it was—Mary Pozzi, another
classmate back in '25.
"Has everybody got to heaven before me, Mary?" I cried.
Was F. X. S. such a long way from heaven? I tried to think, because immediately
after the end of the world I had left my place as Dean of dear old Framingham Xormal
School and made directly for the celestial kingdom.
After seeing Mary and Dottie fond memories of other dear classmates came back
to me. I wondered if they were all up here in heaven. Now was my chance to see if
I couldn't locate them. Just then the heavenly bus rolled by filled with all the "Noble
Xoisemakers" from third floor Crocker, my Senior year. I was more than surprised
and pleased to see that the bus driver was none less than my old pal, Elsie Erhart.
Packed together, laughing as they tried to tell of all their experiences below, I dis-
tinguished Pats, Lelia, Newc, Eleanor. Dot, Gertrude and Ellen. Oh! how I yelled
and hopped in the bus with them.
Elsie then drove us all through the kingdom. While riding we passed Marj Howe.
They told me Marj was leader of the choir in heaven and, as usual, was doing great
work. Mary Graham sped by us in a Packard. Mary had charge of the flower gardens
up here.
Dolly Basset, my old roommate, was captain of the ferryboat that navigated the
river Styx.
Nebbie, I heard, was driving the golden chariot, which catered to all faculties and
famous people.
After seeing many of our old classmates we heard the bugle sound
—
Judgment.
Once more we were to be judged.
Just then St. Peter cried, "Seeing so many H. A., F. N. S. girls of '25 are here, they
may mount this chariot to Jubilee, where once again, as of old, they will be judged
together." As we assembled for Judgment I grabbed a silken cushion and seated myself
at St. Peter's right. St. Peter then called each girl to testify. As each one tremblingly
stood to tell what she had accomplished below, this is what St. Peter wrote:
[ 122 ]

REGULAR SENIOR PROPHECY
I
HAD been waiting some time for Louis, one of my pupils, to return from the errand
on which I had sent him. While sitting there at my desk my attention became
fixed on my F. N. S. ring, and I wondered if all my classmates were having the
same joys and trials and tribulations of teaching that I was. Presently the man in the
seal stepped out and handed me a manuscript entitled "What the Regulars of '25 Are
Doing Now." Ten years—what a long time since I had seen them all, but here at last
was an answer to my own thoughts.
As I carefully unrolled this priceless document the first name to strike my eye
was Janet Burt's. I expected to find Jan the world's champion talker, but I was
doomed to disappointment. She had written a book called "The Sublimity of Silence,"
which had been acclaimed a great success. Her roommate, Edith Fenton's interests are
still centered in Providence, where she has a life job.
Marion Henderson has a position demonstrating the rejuvenating powers of the
Marvis products with Agnes Chalmers as a model.
Mildred Lane and Sally Gibbons run a newspaper of great renown. Their subject
of most importance is the competition between the Stapleton-McCarthy Bus Line and
the O'Hara-Fitzpatrick Limited.
Among our athletes I found that Betty Kelly and Nellie Donielo are giving courses
in football to college men. Esther Allen helps to get recruits by giving nightly orations
in public places. She is the greatest woman orator of the day.
Rose Kelleher, pianist, and Helen Flanagan, violinist, are great favorites at home
and abroad, while Ada De Giannantonio has tired of the opera and now leads a jazz
band.
Many of the girls I found had achieved great success. Dot Harvey has written a
book which outrivals all the modern psychologists. It is entitled "The Harvian Method
of Teaching." Fran Dickinson and Mary Aldrich have become assistants to Mr.
Archibald and Mr. Lyman, respectively.
Dorothy Pollard owns a famous art gallery. I remember her fondness for pictures
when at Framingham. She charges fifty cents admission and this money she gives to
the reform school for boys run by Beth Janes and Elizabeth Patten.
Gracie Parmenter is in charge of the Bureau of Interior Decorating. Anything new
in the line of rearranging rooms may be had from Gracie by just writing to her.
Others I found had stuck to the teaching profession. Among these were Helen
Brennan, Mary Commoli and Theresa Julian. Helen is still living up to her sister's
reputation. Mary and Theresa have specialized in the courses of anatomy and music
respectively.
Irma Sherin has become a noted scientist. She has invented a substitute for Cod
Liver Oil, guaranteed to be tasteless, harmless, and fine for children.

worthy institution, and among those who have tried their luck are Alberta Hardy andMarion Hale, who are happily wed and live in twin houses.
Marie Bagley and Nellie Norcross are efficient teachers in the "Xyman School for
Perfectly Behaved Children." Mary Hoffman is there, too, though sometimes the
reputation of the school is almost ruined because of Mary's contagious laugh.
Muriel Xeedham continues to do her "Miss Pollyanna" stunt and makes new-

Marj Sullivan has become the proprietress of an unusually fashionable modiste's
establishment. She has as one of her most popular mannequins none other than TommyQuinn.
Blanche Rooney, Margaret Scully and Regina Swift are in New York, running a
beauty parlor. Their success is remarkable, due to their specialty, the "Eternal Wave,"
guaranteed to last forever if handled with care. They have employed as their demon-
strator Lucy Murphy.
Mildred Goodenough has become affiliated with the Edwin R. Sage and Co. Tomy surprise I found Marion Nicholson had followed suit.
Another inventor, Helena Stanford, has devised a folding bed, pocket size, which
she would never be without.
Fran Kimball conducts a children's shop. Her particular line of goods is Teddy
bears. Fran always was partial to "Teddies."
Dorothy Hennis has become a nurse. It is surprising to find how many male
patients there are in the hospital where Dot is.
Lois Heywood is a famous kindergarten teacher. She has, by her tireless efforts,
introduced kindergarten methods of discipline, which have been adopted by many
normal school teachers.
Helen Kimball and Muriel Brown, after surviving the customary three years of
teaching, have settled down to the peaceful and delightful occupation of home making.
Flora Youngson and Nina Mazzarelli are famous historians. That which makes
their fame undying is the book "History of the World in a Nutshell."
Helen Butler and Bessie Banks are composers of many hymns used in coundess
normal schools.
Katherine Ehenis has been studying impressionistic art. Several of her master-
pieces have been accepted and placed in the Perkins Institute for the Blind.
Rebecca Bray has won fame as a classic dancer, her most remarkable interpreta-

brains, caused by overstudy. Peg Walker and Kathleen Connelly, greatest debaters

Kay, pianist; Helen Whalen, Peg Rowan and Alice Birmingham, unexcelled dancers;
Helen McCannon, celebrated comedian, noted for her irresistibly funny actions and
droll remarks; Eleanor Walker, an alto singer of wide repute; and Leonie Bertrand,
the great impersonator. I remembered Leonie had quite a "faculty" for impersonating
while at Framingham.
Gertrude Wallace and Helen Vaughn are called the Speed Demons. They have
had many hairbreadth escapes from death and policemen.
Another who has achieved great success is Myrtle Mower, who is appreciated at
Framingham as Mrs. Black was ten years ago.
Peg Young has become a permanent resident of Framingham after several years
of teaching.
Ellen Packard has invented a clock which will get people to school, church or any-
where on time. This clock is in great demand, and popular opinion is that Ellen's
name should be placed in the hall of fame.
The position of cover designer for the American Magazine was recently accepted
by Marie Cahill. Her puppies are favorites with all.
Katherine Conroy is much beloved by the children in the Fredonia Library as

Sitchie Devlin is a successful farmerette. Her chief crop is "arples," while her
avocation is making clipping books.

"Let our aim be to interpret faithfully what is noblest and best in our literature;
to teach the lessons found in the simple ballads of the hearth; and to find innocent en-
joyment in representations of refined humor." —Agnes Knox Black.
THIS has been our aim in bringing to the members of the Fine Arts Club that
which seemed most alluring to the enjoyment of beauty.
In October our program began with a very artistic masquerade. In December
Mrs. Hopkins gave an illustrated talk on ''The Appeal of the Masterpiece." Mrs.
Hopkins is always a favorite at Framingham.
"Monsieur Beaucaire," one of the most successful features of the school year, was
presented by the club in January. In March Mrs. Agnes Knox Black entertained us

have given over their efforts to many programs of school interest.
Through the efforts of the Club and Mr. Archibald, two concerts have been given

one in February by a string quartette. These concerts were supported by the student
body.

WHENEVER "Lend-a-Hand" is mentioned by a girl at F. N. S. you can tell
by her very tone that those words have a gold frame around them; and whyshouldn't they when she recalls the many golden hours spent at the "Light-
house" with Miss Perry as "The Keeper."
Every Tuesday afternoon the Lighthouse sends out its gleam to Lend-a-Hand
members, inviting them to forget school for a time and find recreation by being re-
created. Once a month it is an outside speaker who plays the role of "the gleam";
other times it is a book review or current events by Miss Perry; but the most recreating
meetings are the ones when Miss Perry answers our perplexing questions or gives us
new hopes and faith by her inspiring talks on the joys and trials of climbing the
"Mountain of Life."
We also do our part by sewing at every meeting on tiny garments which carry
cheer to far away Labrador or into the near-by hospitals. The money we raise goes
for other worthy causes. However, it is not what we have given but what we have
received that is uppermost in our hearts as we face back up the hill again with the
words of our club motto ringing in our ears: "Through love to light, through light,
O God—to Thee."

hope for the future is to have a more successful year than this. It is a pleasure
for us to go to the weekly meetings of the G. F. S., which are held at the home
of our friend and associate, Mrs. Brown.
This year we have made and equipped comfort bags for the Sailors' Haven at
Charlestown. We have also sent a missionary box to a girls' school in North Carolina.
At the first meeting of the month we have our service, at which we have as speaker a
clergyman of one of the near-by parishes.
With our work we have our play. Included in our social events are the Hallowe'en
party and our birthday party, which is to be held soon.
We all look forward to the closing event of the year, which is the annual May Tea
in Boston. Here the girls of the G. F. S. of the Diocese of Massachusetts gather and
have supper. Then all march to Trinity Church and have a beautiful, inspiring service.
Our aim and ideal may be expressed by our motto: "Bear Ye One Another's

SIXCE establishing Y. W. C. A. in 1917 as a school organization, each year it has
come to mean more and more to those who have come within its influence.
Our first social function of the year was the Acquaintance Party, given in the
Assembly Hall. This was especially for the new girls, that they might be made to feel
one of us.
There was no occasion to go to the city to do our Christmas shopping, for here on
the hill was held a bazaar, where we came early and went home late.
We are happy to feel that outside of our good times we have been able to bring
pleasure to others through our Christmas Party for a number of poor children in and
about Framingham, and our occasional "Sings" at the Old Ladies' Home.

The Cabinet has met each Monday and, under the leadership of Miss Ramsdell
and Miss Hunt, discussed subjects as thought to be of interest to the girls—from this
individual discussion groups conducted by the members of the Cabinet. Through these
groups many girls have been brought closer together.
Delegates have been sent to Y. W. and Y. M. C. A. Conferences and have brought
back with them ideas that have been of great value in strengthening our organization.
Our Sunday evening Vesper Services have been conducted by outside speakers or
by the girls themselves, and have been a source of inspiration to all.
The Sub-Cabinet has been so successful during its second year that we are sure
the third year will bring even better results.
All of these things we are able to do because of your cooperation. Y. W. C. A.
hopes that it has been able to give you something that will remain with you after

say nothing of the uplifting talks, discussion groups and thrilling speakers. How sorry
I'll be when the 29th arrives."

CATHOLICISM is represented at Framingham Normal School by a club called
"A'Kempis Club." The name given to the club is after a Catholic priest and
writer of the fourteenth century. Thomas A'Kempis.
At the first of the year the club met to organize, and new members were admitted.
Our first social gathering this year was a get-together party held at the Rectory. This
helped us to become acquainted with each other. Among our social activities were
musical entertainments furnished by members of the club. Other well-attended busi-
ness meetings were held during the year.
Our club joined with the Y. W. C. A. in giving Christmas baskets to the poor.
A delegate was sent to the New England Federation of College Catholic Clubs.
Many of the club members attended meetings held at the Senecal in Brighton.
The club has always had willing workers and we hope, in years to come, every

THE Commuters' Club, while yet in the process of becoming established, has been
building a firm foundation for one of the strongest clubs of the school.
Since our main object is the skillful and profitable management of the Com-
muters' Lunch, our lunchroom was opened in the early part of October, with Dean
Savage and the Degree Seniors cooperating with us in our efforts.
Our social life has not been entirely confined to our noonday meetings, which
certainly have played a large part in our school life. Early in November Dean
Savage entertained us at an informal tea at Horace Mann Hall. In the latter part of
February the Y. W. C. A. made us their guests at a tea in the Students' Room. Weshall always look back upon both occasions as among the happiest moments we had.
On the sixth of May we held our first annual social, which proved a gratifying
success, and was thoroughly enjoyed by all.
We of 1925 place our faith in those who follow, for we feel sure they will continue
that which we have carried along thus far. And in so doing we wish them success in
their undertaking.

THE STUDENT HOME ECONOMICS CLUB
THIS year has seen the formation of a new club at Framingham which is quite dif-
ferent from all other clubs at school. The Student Home Economics Club intends
to help the Household Arts students get acquainted with their profession
before they graduate so that they will be stimulated to an active interest in HomeEconomics Associations wherever they may be located after graduation. This club
is affiliated with the State, New England, and American Home Economics Associations,
and is entitled to be represented at all meetings. We want every girl to feel that it
is just as important for her to belong to a club of her profession as it is for a doctor
to be a member of his medical association. With this sort of a goal in view the club
was organized in November, 1924; a constitution was drawn up, and officers were
elected. All members of the two upper classes in the Vocational and Household Arts
Departments are eligible for membership. Four meetings have been held since
November; two business meetings and two educational and social meetings combined.
We are indebted to Dr. Alice F. Blood, Director of Home Economics at Simmons
College, and to Miss MacGregor, President of the Student Club at Simmons, for their
valuable assistance in helping us to organize. We hope that the club will always appre-
ciate that it has an obligation to fulfill; namely, that its members learn, both before
and after graduation, the value of professional associations in Home Economics fields.

THE HARVARD-YALE GAME
NOVEMBER 24, 1924, dawned rather uncertain—the big day of the year, the
day of the Harvard-Yale game of basketball. Harvard and Yale rushed here
and there waiting for 3 p.m. to come.
The clock finally struck three, with the deafening singing of "March, march on
down the field," led by our faithful "bull" and Lene. Then "Two hundred girls of
Harvard want victory today." Such vim, such spirit as only could fill the old gym.
Harvard with its vivid red and Yale's live blue teams balanced the old floor. Cheer
on cheer, and then the whistle. On the floor came the teams, with hoots and cheers
from the sidelines. The whistle sounded—silence; up went the ball, Harvard has it
—
now Yale. Score 2 for Yale; now Harvard. Such teamwork and such passing! Eyes
marveled at the playing of Mary and Nellie. Everyone was spellbound.
The whistle sounded—silence. Score—Rah, rah—Yale ahead. Cheering fills the
gym. D. Gaffey's squad then Lene's filled the old room.
On the floor rushed the teams—the game went on. First Yale ahead then Har-
vard. Whistle. Such a short quarter. Yale ahead now.
Back for the final quarter came the red and blue. Not a sound. Everyone knew
how short the time would be. Harvard stepped ahead. Now the whistle. Score,
Harvard 32, Yale 29.
When has the old gym rung as it did on November 24, 1924?
Then, with a rousing cheer for the coach, the gym cleared and all looked forward
~ :he banquet.

SHORTLY after school opened the Athletic Association began its new year with an
enthusiastic mass meeting in the old gym. Preparations were immediately started
for the traditional Harvard-Yale game.
After the Thanksgiving recess the class basketball teams were organized and six
well-matched games resulted.
Our second annual Field Day was held May 16. Everyone participated and the
day was certainly a fine one.
The big awards were decided this year and awarded to those having the largest
number of points in athletics. More work has been accomplished on the point system
and the award to the winning class at Field Day was decided. To Miss Sutcliffe's
untiring efforts the Association extends its appreciation.

CROCKER HALL
Mary Alley, House President
SEPTEMBER 13th and the day of our return. Crocker opened with noisy words
of greeting on the part of the new H. A. Seniors. An onlooker would have
thought it to be "moving day in Bingville," to see the steady procession of boxes,
bundles, baskets, lamps, etc., being carried from Horace Mann to Crocker, with nowand then a head peeking out in a desperate struggle to see the way.
After every one became settled, dormitory life went on in the same old way. Ahouse meeting was called and officers were elected.
We started off the first of the year with Miss Hall as "House Mother," and Miss
French and Miss Foster as our matrons, but, to the regret of all, Miss French had to
leave. It wasn't long before Miss Hein came to live with us, and we soon became
acquainted.
Life within old Crocker Hall is not all hard work, for there are the many good
times, ranging from Hallowe'en parties in the attic to the midnight parties.
Our Christmas party came before we went home for our vacation. At this time
all the H. A. Seniors gathered in Crocker dining room for a "wonderful feed."
The Crocker girls certainly showed how speedy they were when it came to fire
drills. "Fire drill to-night, girls, get out your coats!"
Everyone agrees that Crocker is a wonderful place to live in, and how we hate
to leave it!

HORACE MANN HALLEleanor Gammon, House President
Listen, fair readers, and you shall hearAbout Horace Mann Hall in our Sophomore
year.
'Twas back in the fall of '24
That we entered its famous front door.
We went to the cellar our trunks to unpack,Carrying luggage upstairs 'most broke our
back.
Our rooms were soon fixed with banners andbooks,
After much use the latter had very poor looks.
Although we studied with all our mightWe were always ready for fun at night.
In the corridors we had many a party,
And "some people's" appetites were alwayshearty.
When the inmates on second were hungry andtired,
A message of hunger up to third was wired.
Then the "old oaken bucket" was let downon a string,
And cookies to the starved ones it did bring.
Light cuts in January were had by all,
Those "containers'' caused such things in ourhall.
And Chemistry, too, was as hard as could beIn the Laboratory, we could spend all the time
we had free.
Miss Robbins, our new matron this year,
Was always ready our troubles to hear.
We all admire and love her, too,
To us she's been a friend true blue.
Miss Savage, our dean, is a friend of ours, too,
And she tells us the correct things to do.
She guides and helps us along the way.With us we hope she'll always stay.
Oh, Horace Mann within those walls of yours,
You have kept us night and day.
We regret going from your doors
Within which we were always gay.

VOCATIONAL HOUSE
Margaret Harris, House President
ITwas with a feeling of suppressed excitement and pleasure that the Vocational
Freshmen took the places that the Sophomores left vacant on that memorable
January 5, 1925.
We had the thrill of choosing roommates, drawing for rooms, and finally hearing
the announcement of the first cook shift, but the real thrill came when we finally
found ourselves the mistresses of the Vocational House.
Our one disappointment was that we could not have Miss Sturtevant live with
us, but we are all very happy with Miss Weeks in charge, and Miss Sullivan has proved
to be a very popular assistant.
In February we were hostesses for the first time when we gave a Valentine party
to all the girls in the Vocational Department. We all enjoyed entertaining so well that
now we are looking forward to the time when we may have a similar opportunity.
Of course studying has to be done just the same, even if we do have house practice,
but, despite our busy days, I am sure that the time spent in the White House on the
Hill will mean many happy memories for each Vocational Freshman.

VILLAGE HOUSES

FOR RENT SEPTEMBER, 1925: Bachelor girls' apartment, 15 Maple Street.
Boudoir, living room, excellent storage space, kitchenette, containing modern equipment
for late breakfasts, afternoon teas, and Sunday suppers. Apply to "Al, Ada, Kizzy."
MRS. COLLINS'— 176 STATE STREET
176 State Street holds pleasant memories for "the three"—Ella, Grace and
Helen. In the fall of 1924 we came here, bag and baggage, to take up our new course
of life. Mrs. Collins made it very pleasant and homelike for us. The house was
deserted week-ends, but Sunday nights found us all back again, often drinking cocoa
and eating sandwiches. The "vie" gave us lots of entertainment, as well as did pranks
after ten o'clock. We shall never forget the nightly phrase "Everybody in?" nor
all the little kindnesses that Mrs. Collins showed us during our first year stay on the
sunny side of Normal Hill.
BOYNTON'S
WOOD TERRACE—ALIAS RIVER BANK—SOMETIME HIGH TIDE
Things to be remembered:
1. The first night.

3. The first week-end.
4. Our own original guessing game.
5. Witty one act plays.
6. Delightful walks over the back hill on stormy days.(?)
7. Our private feasts at 10.00 P.M.
8. "Strawberries." (?)
9. "and then the hammock fell."
10. "There's mice in the room! !"
MRS. ROGERS' HOUSE— 26 MAIN
Girls—Will you ever forget—Miss Kingman's light, those cups of hot cocoa Mrs.
Rogers brought up on cold winter nights, and the concertina concerts? Our roll call
changed often but we all say—"Three cheers for the shining white house and the
good times we had there."

THE BEST HOUSE IN THE VILLAGE
In case we forget, let's remember
O'Neill's at No. 29 Salem End.
Our most beloved house mother
And her lovely parties for us.
E 's baby "Gretchen."
When we kept house.
The mail some one else was always getting.
That 6.30 alarm clock.
Who'll answer the 'phone?
The lending closets.
Most important of all, "Who'll be in bed first?"
THE KINGMAN FAMILY
It was in the fall of 1924
When four strange girls were welcomed at Kingman's door,
The friendly spirit to appreciate,
The homey house to initiate.
There was "Judy" and "Unie" and Doris and Ida
Who'll always remember
That homesick September,
In this home down under the hill.
SEARS' HOUSE— 7 VERNON ST.
The 12th of September, 1922,
And to tell the truth we were surely "new,"
When nine of us to the Sears' house came,
To make the place quite far from "tame."
Who knows about
—
"One Exciting Night"—at rat? Ask Alice and Mickey.
"It's Three O'Clock in the Morning." Ask Marian and Vel.
"I Stood on the Stairs at Midnight." Ask Nellie.
"Who had all the heavy bills to pay?" Ask Marian.
"Why didn't 7 Vernon Street become a barber shop?" Ask any one.
"Who served us 'afternoon tea' regularly?" Ask Grace.

"BAGLEY HOUSE"
Here we find three degrees Al, Dizzy, and Izzy. Although through the day
thev are never to be found, but call on them at 10 P.M. and then some.
EMERSON'S TUMBLE INN
Pauline, Velna, Dot and Sue,
Here post these warnings to you.
Don't fail to set your alarm, you know,
For the rooster might forget to crow.
Don't use the broom too often,
You might wear the bristles out.
Don't laugh too heartily,
You might rout your neighbors out.
Don't start the barber business,
Until you've learned the trade.
Don't stay more than one week end,
Or all your joys will fade.
"THE STONE HOUSE"
The proof that variety is the spice of life is well shown in our "Happy Family" by
our heterogeneous flock of Degree Seniors, Regular Juniors, Yocational Special and at
one time an H. A. Freshman.
Of course the Stone House could still hold its reputation by supplying the Fresh-
man President! Here's to our efficient Helen'
Familiar sayings: Any mail at the House? Did you know this is "Hot Water
Day"? Who's going to breakfast?

SMIDDY HOUSE
Last fall five freshmen came to live at the foot of the back hill in a cozy brownhouse—the Smiddy home.
It was not long before two of the girls left for the dormitory.
Who of the remaining three could ever forget that awful back hill, the parties,
those mid-weekly visitors, and the mail?
Mrs. Smiddy was just the best house-mother three girls ever had, and none of
them will forget the happy year they had at the Smiddy house.

McGRATH'S—MAYNARD ROAD
September—Nine tired children arriving at McGrath's. One left to go to the
dorm, and then there were eight. Four "H. A.'s," three "Regulars," and our own
"Special."
Remember! the Serenade—the tennis racquet murder—the voyage of the ink
bottle.
UNCLE DUDLEY'S
A pleasanter family than our Uncle Dudley's is hard to find. We are glad when
they are happy and sorry when they are sad. They've tried with might and main to
make our stay there an enjoyable one, and we're sure they have succeeded. We hope
the girls there next year will enjoy and appreciate their good will and kindness as
we do.
MRS. BLAKE'S
Occupants—Buffy, Mr. and Mrs. Blake—Dot, Nelly, Bunny and Jew, Dot, Ruth,
Connie and Lucia.
1. Jew hides in Dot's and Nelly's closet until everybody is asleep at 10.30.
2. During a water fight Dot dons her overshoes to escape the flood.
3. Where did the scarecrow come from and who put him to bed?
4. 10.03 P.M. Outside door downstairs shuts and in a minute, "Miss Stevens,
your light is on, isn't it?" The next week Dot and Ruth announce their New Year's
resolution.
Lots of fun we have had along with our work and certain well-known phrases,
such as, "Girls, it's half past seven," and "It's ten o'clock, lights out."
THE PARSONAGE—1010 WORCESTER ROAD
It is universally said that beginners and beginnings make a lasting impression.
Who will not admit that the jolly and friendly atmosphere of Wheeler house, the
frequent feasts of sherbet, cookies and doughnuts, to say nothing of automobile rides,
and, last but not least, the welcome (?) tinkle of the ten o'clock bell—would create
a lasting impression? We know that it will linger in our memories even after we have
left Wheeler house for another year of work and fun in the dormitories.

ALL graduates of the State Normal School at Framingham are, by right of
graduation, members of the Alumna; Association. The Association, as a whole,
holds meetings at Framingham Centre biennially in the even years. There is,
however, a form of representative government, so that business may be transacted all
through the period of two years. There is an Alumnae Council, consisting of two mem-
bers from each class, which meets usually twice a year at Framingham Centre.
At the Biennial Meeting a concert by the United Glee Clubs of the School is
given. On Alumnae Day reports from the activities of the Council are read, necessary
business is transacted and officers are elected. Reports from classes graduated fifty,
twenty-five, and ten years ago are given.
The Alumnae Association has raised two funds, the Ellen Hyde Scholarship Fund
for the use of Students in Schools, and the Amelia Davis Fund for Incapacitated
Teachers.
The Alumnae Association has ever been a monument which all those having to do
with F. N. S. may lean on for support. Let us strive to reward that monument for its
support by giving our best to it.
A MESSAGE TO THE CLASS OF 1925
AS Secretary of the Alumnae Association I am glad of an opportunity to send you
first a message of welcome to our Association, then to urge every member of the
class to enter into the life and work of the Association in whole-hearted fashion.
Some of the leaders of the present day are growing old and in a few short years the
strength and beauty of the Association must fall into other hands.
Our school holds a position of high dignity as the leader in the nation wide move-
ment for teachers. The loyalty of her Alumnae is a matter of remark among people
outside our ranks. Let it be the pride of 1925 to keep up the fine reputation.
Mary C. Moore, Secretary of the Alumnae Association.

Misses Burns and Blakney's experiences are but two of thousands who have found
relief during this trying period by using this cure.
"I have been suffering with pangs of hunger "I took Miss Hall's cure while going throughfor years. It is especially noticeable just before these pangs of hunger. I could not sleep andretiring. By taking a glass of water and going was so weak I could hardly lift my head fromright to bed I found relief. I advise everyone the pillow, but this gave me immediate relief,

REGULAR SENIOR B
We are the girls of Senior B,
A jolly, lively bunch;
Although we're slammed both left and right
We still have got some punch.
There's "Jazz" the clever
When in a tight squeeze,
And "Babe" the clown,
Who fell on her knees
When dainty Flora the Columbine
Appeared on the scene in all due time.
Many fine other ones have we.
Including Mary, the charming Gypsy;
And last but not least in Senior B
I will mention Hale and Hardy.
Xow don't you think, with a class like this,
That without success there's something amiss?
We know Senior A has our ex-president.
And Senior C bright girls on knowledge bent.
But just the same, in spite of jest,
Senior B's as good as all the rest.

DON'TS FOR TEACHERS
Don't frown. It takes seventeen (17) muscles to frown— four (4) to smile—rest your face.
Don't judge a book by its cover. "Plastic Age" may be reposing under "Grimm's
Fairy Tales."
Don't tell your pupils love is like a photographic plate just because it takes a dark
room to develop it.
Don't ever consider a position offering more than $2,000 a year.
Don't retire after your first year just because you have accumulated enough moneyDon't build a wall between teacher and pupil.
Don't tell your pupils that milk is pasteurized because it comes from a cow that
has been out to pasture.
"Don't mind the rain."
Don't mind visitors— they probably don't know any more than you do.
Don't swear at superintendents— it simply isn't being done.

HINTS TO THE YOUNG HOUSEWIFE— A LA CROCKER COOKSHIFTS
Chicken fat is excellent to spread on hot toast.
To make chicken go further do not clean the giblets before cooking.
Use sal soda as a substitute for rock salt when freezing ice cream.
For a dainty dessert use Marshall & McAndrews' pie recipe — or the Esmeralda
Cream recipe, page 119.
Always bake bread in the broiler.
To guarantee good ice cream use four times the amount of sugar called for in the
recipe.
For an afternoon tea, make the tea so strong that if you run out of coffee it maybe substituted.
It is best to use musty eggs for scones.
Always use cornstarch to sweeten whipped cream.
When roasting chicken for Sunday dinner always leave in the oven until the fol-
lowing Tuesday. Then it is sure to be well done.
Whenever you desire to break a bowl hurl violently at Miss Hall.
When making baking powder biscuits always omit baking powder, sugar and salt.
Salt may be substituted for sugar in cocoa.

OUR PSALM OF LIFE
Lives of Seniors all remind us
We can strive to do our best;
And departing leave behind us,
Experiences that will help the rest.
Listen my children and I shall say
The bright little story of Senior A;
With a passionate liking for green and red,
Which some of the faculty hate, 'tis said:
Clad in such colors, the brave little crew
Went to class one day and saw it through.
Sat down this way, first red then green,
Much to the joy of Unlucky Thirteen.
With a few giggles, smiles, and self-satisfaction
The faces arrayed were ready for action.
The brightness without was not within
To the teacher's disgust—but we wore a grin.
When you're ready for jokes, just look herein
And try some yourself; and see if you win.
We wonder if Miss Coss knows she got Epsom Salts at one of the dinner parties at
