What the yearbook said

Four years ago Muriel came to M. H. S. from Somerville. During this time she has become one of our dearest and most popular girls. Because of her sweet personality and pleasing disposition, she has won many friends and last fall was elected secretary of her class. “Chisy” is a charter member of the Girls’ Club and has always been a very active and efficient member. Those who know “Chisy” love her and cherish her as a dear friend. Next year “Chisy” hopes to go to Katherine Gibbs’ Secretarial School, and we know that whatever she does she will always be a credit to M. H. S.
