What the page does not say. Clubs or activities and plan after graduation are missing. The rest of the Melrose High School class of 1926 has them often (clubs or activities 61% and plan after graduation 30%), so the gap may belong to the reading rather than to Frances. The scan is the authority.

What the yearbook said

Frances is a very quiet, demure type of girl, a quality which has made her well liked by her many friends. We cannot cite any instance when she has been in the limelight, but she has always silently done her part to make a success of whatever we have undertaken. Frances is moreover a good student but not a grind, and is deserving of our wish that her future be as bright as her past has surely been.
