been diligent and persevering, qualities which enabled her to win the English Award a few years ago. (diarlie Day towers above us all, for you can always find him standing on a chair in front of the clock fixing the bells. If it were anyone else but Charlie he would need a ladder. We often think that if he were found talking in his sleep, it would be about bells, (or there is more than one kind in Charlie’s mental dictionary. Mary Strawbridge and Edith Shoemaker we feel must be written together. Their surnames will tell vou that they are not twins and their .o o actions, that they are not heavenly, but they are cousins; where you see one the other is sure to be. Straw always manages to take the teacher’s time, especially when we are unpre­ pared. Ede has a very sweet voice and has made an excellent President of the Glee Club, Tliev both excel as captains—Ede of Hockey and Straw of Basketball. Tom Birch has won the distinction of being the only one Biddle hasn’t fought with. Through the Intermediate he had a craving to organize something he could run; but

since then he has become very modest and retiring, until of very late—what is il they say about “in the spring a young man’s fancy?” Did you say you liked to hear people argue? You should have been in our class a couple of years ago to hear the heated discussions between Frances lleacock and Mr. Price over Alexander the Great, and Fan’s non-drinking Quaker ancestors. Of course she always won—that’s one way of looking at it. Theodora Cope was one of the girls to join us in the first primary. She might be termed only an interested visitor for Teddy did not decide to stay with us until last year. She can always be found telling her fond cousin. Scat, what to do and how lo do it. When we think of Betty Cadbury we can’t think of anything but Hockey. She has probably done numerous other things bul her great ability in this line has driven all other thought.^ from our heads. During her Senior year we sacrificed her for the cause of Hockey for three months while she became the “young school-girl champion” of the American team in England. George Gade has been with us since the first primary and has always been famous for two things, his violin playing and his size. The latter he has put to good use in recent years. Being small he has a remarkable ability for not being missed. George holds the record for having stayed away from school more days than anyone else, and it is safe lo say that the teachers have not been aware of the fad more than half the time. In the second class we were joined by five more. Mary Daniels was the first to put her hair up. She always looked years older than the rest of us, but tliis year Daniels evidently fell she had been old long enough for she now has it bobbed and she does look much younger. Kermit Fischer is probably the worst “snake” in our cla.ss. This trait showed itself early in his career. We have positive proof of certain love allairs of his conducted in tiie seclusion of the graveyard as far back as the second primary. In addition to his more important characteristics, he was one of the best Football leaders in the history of the school and one of the most eflicient members of the class in school activities. When it came lo choosing a dormouse for the play Alice in Wonderland” one year. Mary Whitaker received a unanimous vote because we felt she would just fit the part slow you know. Whits has not not been slow, however, in tellin g us of the wonders of her brothers. As far back as the primary if a teacher told us something was impossible. nothing daunted. Whits would get up and tell us how al least one of her brothers could do it. There was one little boy in our class in the primary, who used to wear the cutest little white collars. They made such a hit that the manufacturers immediately began to make ‘‘Dexter Brown Collars” but unfortunately they changed the name to “Buster Brown” and Dex has lost the credit he de­ serves. Dex left us soon afterwards and we managed THIRTY-TWO ]

to struggle on without him until the Senior year when he returned to be the life of the class. The one addition in the third primary was a playful, jolly, Roly-Poly little boy who has ever continued to be so—not even being o overcome bv Senior dignity. The most outstanding fact about Rowly Morgan is that he is owner of the vehicle commonly known as “Morgan’s Jit.” This conveyance, without which the class would not be the same, consists of three disk wheels, one sj)oke wheel, a Ford engine, a Peerless radiator, and a tin racing body. Three valuable additions to our class the next year were Mary l^olts, Elizabeth Scattergood, and Tyson Stokes. Mary Potts was described the other day as the girl with the plait up her back. Pottsie has a lol of hair; once she embarrassed a young substitute teacher by taking il down in class and then carefully rearranging it. She is a past master at bluHing and many are the times she has amused the class with her knowledge of something she has never heard of. After someone else has given the correct answer, Pollsie always knew it was something like that. Elizabeth Scallergood can tell you where any line of poetry you may quote conies from, who the author is, and probably the next few lines, She is also a great hand al telling Teddy what to do and how to do it. Tv Stokes has always been distinguished as an actor. As early as the fourth class he had one of lhe leading parts in the play “Nicholas Nickleby” which consisted of re­ peating “Damn il” innumerable limes. In class this talent has always made his recilalions very unique, especially in French. We also might add that he is the one and only answer to many a lonely maiden’s prayer. When we reached lhe seventh class, we felt we were growing up as we were in lhe big building, changing rooms after every period, and having dilTerent teachers. So il was with great pride dial we showed our newcomers around, though it must lie said we didn’t know much more about it ourselves. One of these was Katharine Harris, the little Santa Domingo girl with the great big curls. There were lots of girls in our class who had curls but none of them could boast of such big ones as K. They were a great temptation to the little boys who sal behind, beside, and all around her to dip into the inkwells or to slip notes into. K has also been known for her great ability as a leader and we can't pass her bv without mentioning her “Spensericn” spelling. May I’ield entered so quietlv we hardly knew she had come and even now we feel that May believes in being seen but not heard, Have you noticed what slunninr’’' dresses she wears? We*ll have to tell von that she makes them all herself. More l)oys than girls came to us in the sixth class, Robert Barker is the only boy who still clings to short trousers.

the time Miss Trueblood wished the rest of us could be as interested as Bob; and we hear she is still telling her classes the number of birds Bob said he saw in a season. Our distinguished class is by no means lacking in members of the nobility but it was not until the second class, when Mr. Price happened to speak slightingly of Bill MacBride’s forefathers, that his noble ancestry was discovered. Mac unmistakably es­ tablished his identity as a member of the elite by the poise with which he carried out a seemingly impossible feat. For an entire winter he never appeared inside the school grounds before the first bell and he never failed to be safely inside the room before the second bell. Thereafter, Mr. Price, realizing his error, reverently greeted Bill as the Duke” as he and the sound of the second bell swept into the room together. Allen Horton is particularly fond of the Student Council, as is shown by the care he takes in combing his hair for council meetings. A casual visitor to Honor Study would probably find one lad who seems to be doing the least work of anyone in the room because he is continually nudging his companions and pointing to a sign in the front of the room which says: “You are on your honor.” One might think that the lad had made the sign and that he was very proud of his work, but in reality it is only Al saying: “Come on now, fellows.” The following year seemed to be very popular for we received five new members. In Jane Kirk, we feel we have something quite unusual. Jane went through her first five years of school before we learned of her great ability. One day in science class Jane as usual was enjoying a lively conversation with her next door neighbor, when Miss Trueblood asked her if she was paying attention. “Oh, yes,” said Jane, “I was listening with one ear and talking with the other.” Biddle Saul is the baby of the class, les, he is young in years but oh, how old in experience! With his fiery hair, he is the proverbial fighter and until just recently, at recess you could always be sure of finding a ring around Biddle and whomever he could get to fight with him. Doris Gaskill lives way out in Oak Lane; if it were not for that wonderful big gray Wills Sainte Claire, ail her own too! we hardly know how the girls could get to so many places or how Doris could get to and from home so easily. There is so much to say about our right honorable president that we cannot begin to do justice to his many accomplishments. In spite of the long time Gerald West has been with us we have never quite gotten used to seeing him come to school in all sorts of weather with a snappy beaver hat and a pair of gloves, but no overcoat. Gerry is very persistent in all his habits though, and he may still be seen cranking his Ford. We must call Polly Andrews our foreign correspondent for we have seen very little of her in our Senior year. We have missed her a lot but we know from her 64

glowing letters that she is having a wonderful trip, In in a way wc we hope nope she sue never sees the Prince of Wales for we are afraid our Poll would never come hack. We’ll have to mention her giggle, which she uses to good advantage in recitations if she happens to have been out the night belore. Stansbury Miller was our only addition in the first year of high school, He is another member of our brotherhood who lays claim to nobility although we were long blind to his identity. It took Mme. Brede’s European insight to recognize in our Stiidie, The Baron de Strausburg Mueller. However in view of our long acquaintance with him he still consents to being called by his classmates, just plain ordinary Baron. Ever since the Third Class, when Christine Hetzell came paltering in with her neat little steps, we have felt much more orderly. For Chris is the kind of girl who not only keejis herself but her books, papers, and pencils as neat as a pin. If you want to identify her at any lime, just look for a number of pins and rings from a certain wellknown college in New Jersey. When some poor individual is struggling over a passage in Latin, we have noticed that Mr. Domi’s favorite expression is: “Now Ruth will take it up.” He knows, as we all do, that Ruth has prepared her lesson and that is why in the second class she won the scholarship. Mornings before school, in between bells, and at recesses Ruth is always found surrounded by those who are less studiously inclined. In the second class the only one lo join us was \X Wheider heider Lord. Weedy kept us interested from the first in the lengthy letters he wrote regularly to a certain lady friend in a certain New Jersey* school. The climax lo this affair came in our Senior year when the class obtained possession of one of the damsel’s epistles to him and read it in study hour, He is also famous with Laird, for having ‘"hiked” to Maine in two and a half days. Margaret Sigg ns Irom Germantown High in the first class. Margaret • O’ - • - is -one of our very talented classmates, but she is so quiet that she does not let us know it. We understand that she plays the piano exceedingly well, among other things, but the only accomplishment she exhibits in public is her giggle. A month later. Marcia Stevens wa.s ushered in as the girl from Boston with a r New England accent but without a New England conscience. Masha or Marshmallow, r as she wa.s straightway called, entered immediately into the thick of things and has been a valuable asset not only lo the girls’ but also lo the boys’ teams. Frank Logan was the last to join us. After graduating from Germantown High. he felt his education was not complete without half a year al Germantown Friends. He immediately made the Basketball team, lo which he was of great assistance among other things because of his acquaintance with the reporters. There was a time when the teachers used lo tell our class what great h«>pes they had in us but these hopes have long since been exploded. One event which did much to clear the class of this accusation was the snowball fight conducted in Mr. Price’s room, in the second class. This affair was a complete success, as is shown by the fact that there has not been another one since. We could not be entirely< denied this

privilege, however, and we have developed into an expert class of eraser throwers. Nearly every boy in lhe class is a crack shot with an eraser, conclusive proof of the old saying, “Practice makes perfect.’’ The girls of course have not been quite so violent in their actions l)ul they are even more Irving on lhe teachers’ nerves, for the shrill screams with which they fill the entire building surpasses, in volume, even Prank Logan’s orchestra of wind instruments. As we graduate from our school, we may seem to others, just one more Senior class passingc out into the world, but to us it is a much more serious matter. We are leaving the old school we have loved so long, and our only consolation is that we can come back as alumni and see how very well things are going on without us. We can ea.silv remember what we have fallen short of, what we should have liked lo he. hul we al least have the satisfaction of feeling that we would have been a whole lol worse if w’e had not gone lo Germantown Friends.
