What the yearbook said

“Milly” is one of the most original members of our class. She is a friend to all and a good scout. You’re sure to be in a happy mood when she is around for she always has a smile and some joke to crack. “Milly” is a loyal worker for the Girls’ Club and it was through her ardent efforts that the Parent-Faculty Night was such a success this year. “Milly” is a Girl Scout in which organization she has reached very high ranks. She was also our cheer leader for the season of ’28, where her leadership led to one of the greatest of sportsmanship years. Don’t forget that you can find a friend and lots of fun in “Milly.” Good luck !
