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.

JAMES CHALMERS. A.B.. Ph.D. D.D.. L.L.D., Principal

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."

HONORARY MEMBER 1925 CLASS

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.

"Ever charming, ever new,When will the landscape tire the view?"

"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.

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.

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."

Shirley Taft Reid

December 6, 1921

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

frequent visits to Normal Hill, she has grown to be a great favorite and has

completely won the hearts of all. We also wish to show appreciation for the

many helpful and thoughtful things her Daddy has done for us while we were at

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.

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]

the dial

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.

MODERN AND FANCY DANCING

MADAM O. G. HOLT

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

glad to have someone to talk over the whys and wherefores of our classmates. She

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

Isobel Bixby is traveling extensively for a club, lecturing to the younger set on

"How to Escape the Perils of Being a Heart Breaker"; through her popularity she

has become efficient in this line.

Mary Bettencourt has just completed a great painting, the greatest ever produced.

It is to be unveiled at the Louvre in France.

Lucia Buck is running several hair dressing parlors throughout Philadelphia.

Martha Conklin is teaching new and advanced methods in hemstitching by the

yard in the High Schools throughout the state.

Betty Cobb has at last achieved great success and has lived up to the "voc. title"

as "First Lady of the Land."

Winifred Keneally has achieved great fame among recent day Psychologists on

her recent publication of "The Great Need of Psychology in Schools" (a huge success).

Dorothy Peach is now head of a large information bureau connected with the radio

broadcasting stations and broadcasts, daily, answers to any questions sent to the bureau.

Alice Saunders is in charge of a "Home for the Aged" in Mexico. Her teaching

third aged her so that she felt it her duty to give her services to this line of work.

Evelyn Shields is running a dressmaking establishment in Colorado. She turns

out expert dressmakers by the score.

Gretchen Papen is teaching millinery out in Nebraska.

Suddenly a queer sensation came over me and I awoke to find that the sun had

gone down and that my trip to Chicago was only a dream.

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.

We leave to Crocker Hall a new clothes rack to hang the mops on.

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

recommend for Miss Hall's special recipe book. It's worth a lot.

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

Last Will and Testament.

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 ]

St. Peter, she made it co-ed.

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.

Marjorie Llewelyn has been traveling the entire world to obtain specimens for her

snake collection. Marj has spent much time on this hobby of hers. As it is nearly

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-

friends wherever she goes.

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-

tion being "Pierrot's Fiancee."

Annie Kenney has become successor to Mrs. Hodgson. Now she can be in Med-

way all the time, much to her delight.

Mae Chapman founded an institution for invalids suffering from unbalanced

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

of the present time, are having heated discussions as to whether or not most of the

Some of our classmates I discovered had formed a traveling stock company. Themembers of this well-known group of players are seven in number. They are: Violet

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

their story-teller.

Many look forward to the "Isn't This So" column of the daily papers, which is

written by Grace Valente. Olive is also interested in the newspapers, where she cheers

the world on its way with her cartoons.

One of the interpreters at Ellis Island is Mary Gianfrante, who does much towards

helping Uncle Sam's future citizens.

Miriam Axtell and Ethelwyn Silverthorne are governesses for bothersome Beacon

Hill boys who give them many moments of misery.

Marj Porter, another authoress, has greatly benefited the world by her writings

"Points in Reducing for Portly People."

Esther Benjamin recently captured the first prize in an international cross-country

hike. Edna Kilroy also won fame for Framingham by coming in second.

Sitchie Devlin is a successful farmerette. Her chief crop is "arples," while her

avocation is making clipping books.

Florence Fulton has recently graduated from the Conservatory of Music in Ger-

many. "Music" written by her is an undisputed authority.

Marjorie Hunt, a supervisor of English, is teaching successfully because of

methods set forth by Mr. Sheridan and Mr. Driggs.

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

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

by outside talent, the first one in the fall by the Myrtle Jordan Trio and the second

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

body.

The Combined Clubs were in charge of the Christmas concert under the direction

of Mr. Archibald. Our F. N. S. Trio made its first appearance before the whole school,

making this concert a great success. Other features of this concert were Christmas

selections by the Glee Club, selections by the school orchestra, and a solo by Mr.

In March the Worcester Tech Clubs gave a concert here, our Glee Club assisting

with a group of songs. We wish to thank the students and faculty for their help

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

Burdens."

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

leaving F. N. S.

Wednesday, 10.30 p.m.—Under the lantern.

"Who would believe a conference could be so inspiring, yet so jolly? Shall I ever

forget Dr. Arbuckle's ghost story, 'The Fighting Pacifist'? Hikes, swimming, etc., to

say nothing of the uplifting talks, discussion groups and thrilling speakers. How sorry

I'll be when the 29th arrives."

Monday—On the train for home.

"It's all over now, but what a renewal of faith in people and life the conference

has given me ! How many new friends I have made in such a short time ! These things

I shall never forget, nor will any of us ever forget:

"Trips to washhouse, The Loon, Ruth shutting the tent flap in the thunder

storm, Bee's Special Delivery boxes, Ellen's red bows and Al's giggles, and Midnight

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

year will make it a little stronger.

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

SHORTLY after school opened the Athletic Association began its new year with an

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.

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

Things to be remembered:

1. The first night.

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."

And her lovely parties for us.

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.

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-

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

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.

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.

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.

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,

Who fell on her knees

When dainty Flora the Columbine

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.

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
