SAG a aa Hlstory of Class E1ghteen O be a true historian, one must of necessity deal merely with facts and depict incidents as they really transpire. Should you ask us whence Class '18 gathered such a band, I should tell you from the grammar grades before us, from the schools about the district and from many other counties. With ardent desire to make further pursuit of the studies we had learned to like in the grammar grades, our class assembled here in the year 1914. Then, we were only twelve in number, since, others have joined us, year by year, until we have become five and twenty. In the char- acteristics which make up an all-round class, ours may be justly regarded as second to none. In September, 1916, there came to us from South Boston, Her- man Bass, dignified and reserved. In varied lines he istalented, he has won for us fame as an orator and poet, yet-as many great men have fallen-so has Her- man fallen victim to cupid's dart. This tends to inspire his expression of thought, and by it some day he will win laurels so envied by all. Today as our class president, he stands as a leader' among us. 1 Among our happy number in the first year, was Annie Laurie Marshall, who is today secretary of class '18 She has been an active member of the Lee Literary Society and a successful contestant for silver VV. C. T. U. Medal. One of our most faithful workers, is Joe Inge, who will be remembered as a star debater through these four years, he has often been heard eloquently pleading his cause. From the forest primeval in September, 1916, came Guy I-Iarris. He very soon adapted himself to the ways of A. S. A. S., and has proved successful in the application of his orderly habits. One of our best musicians, who has been with us the four years, is Macie Inge. Though residing some distance from school, she has been a faithful pupil. The most industrious member of our class, is Thomas Caldwell, who joined us as a Freshman. 'He believes that "Satan finds mischief for idle hands to dof' Robert Beale hails from our rival city, Pamplin, and right proud he is of the fact. He possesses a strong sense of humor, and is never so happy as when playing pranks on his fellow pupil. Robert has been with us two years, and is now among our leading students. . 22 SAG R MA Charlotte county is represented by Beulah St. John, who joined our class in September, 1917. She is secretary of the Washington Literary Society, and is a zealous worker. Richard Caldwell is very much interested in Agriculture-modern and scientific farming. He excels also in Mathematics. Lonnie Finch is a native of South Boston, and is a stranger in our midst- having only been with us a few months. VVe Welcome hiin into our circle of Seniors, as well as on the field of baseball. In the Sophomore year, Kate O'Brien made for us a record by Winning the scholarship medal. She is the only girl in our class who has toiled over Latin during these four years. Every phase of her work has been successful. From the Valley of Virginia, in September, 1916, came Lewis Vaughan. He is a member of the Waisliington Literary Society, but believes that, 'tSilence is golden," and that thought is deeper than all speech. Harry Shotwell, a noble son of Halifax county, joined us in the Junior year. He is the only masculine member of our class, who was inspired by-the Muses. Late in September, 1915, from Brookneal, came Lillian Evans, though she found school life and romance closely allied, she never fails to do her duty, and is the most proficient in French. As a representative from the Sunny South, came Elliott Cheatham. He has always studied diligently just before Exams., and is a very athletic Senior- having won two medals in the fields. "He ever strives to come up to the standard." Though Walker Thornhill has been identified with our school only for the past term, he has established himself as a Senior, and is an active member of the Lee Literary Society. Elsie Payne, a demure maiden from Culpepper, joined us as Juniors. She is good in all Work, but has excelled in Domestic Science. Her garments are dainty, her dishes, delicious. . Ever since there has been a dormitory at A. S. A. S., there has been one or two of the Shotwell boys with us. When its doors opened in September, we were glad to Welcome Roy, the youngest son, who has during these months, made friends of us all and usually gets E Cexcellentj on disposition. 23 fi. SAG A A gentleman who believes that "Impossible" is a word to be found only in the dictionary of "fools" is Thomas Turnes, who has always been among the tirst of our class. His motto is good, and we hope after he leaves us, that he may ever retain benefits derived from it. A Boldly and without fear, the jolly Susie Booker stepped from Liberty Chapel High School into our class, and little cause has she to fear, for Chemistry HD has no terrors for her. All through the High School, We have had with us Aubrey VVebb, from Hixburg. In all the dignity of his Seniorship, he aspires to Win a "Young,' maiden. He has been a faithful member of the VVashington Literary Society, and ever loyal to all duties imposed. Kathleen Rucker, who was with us as a Freshman, is talented, having won two medals in W. C. T. U. contest. She has been loyal to the Washington Literary Society, and has Won fame for it. The president of the Washington Literary Society, is Julian Gills, who is like the poor-We have had him with us always. He is adept in things, both artistic and literary, and to him credit is due for numerous sketches found in our annual. I Now that I have given you a mental picture as We were-as we arc, you will bear with us even in this hour-the time when We come to realize that. our young lives are just on the verge of the great field awaiting us. True to our motto, "Labor conquers all things," we go forth, determined to achieve success. ITISTORIAN. 24 SAG R MA Prophecy of Class '18 HEN our little band of pilgrims swung into the boisterous tide of Q ' High School work just four years ago, there was such a terrible if mixture of giggling girls and wiggling boys, that it was rather per- QS3 plexing to know just what Dame Fortune had in store for them. 6 The long and the short, the fat and lean, the idiot and genius, 00 the wise and foolish, have fought their way shoulder to shoulder, ris- ' ing and falling on the cbbing tide until in June, 1918, we have twenty-five survivors, who appear above the surging waves of Geometry, Latin and Physics, and have a future worth revealing. Before me a dark mysterious veil lifted, enveloping me into eternal dark- ness, and the uncanny hand of fate guided me across unfathomable depths to the Delphian Oracle. There in a sequestered bower, amidst rustling oaks, shrouded in the clouds of vapor, I connnuned with the goddess of fate, who many times in the history of old, has waved her mystic wand over the heads of Roman and Grecian heroes. A still small voice whispered into my ears, t'Be not amazed, for 'whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap '." The future of your classmates is only a fulfillment of the past. A stroke of the mystic wand and out of the vapor came Herman Bass with his serene countenance and drea.1ny eyes of brown. He wa.s living in his happy home of the far West-his profession obtained-and by his Fireside was his faithful " Kat." - Far off in the Oriental world-Harry Shotwell was swaying the audience of Ancient Rome to the strains of his melodious music. In the Sunny South, was Lucile Caldwell, teaching Domestic Science with a zealous CZellerlsj heart to return to 4'Old Virginny. " There was our athlete, Elliott Cheatham, happily residing in a neat bunga- low beside Randolph-Macon, as his better half was a member of the faculty of that College. Next from the vapor, flew Lewis Vaughan, our faithful student in Mathe- matics. He was a skillful civil engineer in France, which speaks 'well for our Class of '18. 25 QAG 14533, I then saw Elsie Payne, to which the following description may be applied: "Eyes that are blue and smiles that bewitchf' She was an efficient gray-haired history teacher, impressing upon her pupils the importance of knowing all about Richelieu and Captain Smith. In a group, Thomas Caldwell, Guy Harris and Walker Thornhill made their appearance. No American Soldiers were as proud of responding to their Country's call as these three, for they were then fighting in the trenches of France, clisplaymg 'in them what was best. Next came Joe Inge. Yes, there he stood in the shoes of President Wilson, which he had long since laid aside. His face was serious and grave, and in his thought, the destiny of the mightiest nation on earth. Crying and sighing, came our aifectionate Annie Laurie Marshall for a divorce from Richard Caldwell, because she had found out that he was not a self-made man. I caught sight of the most wonderful city of Virginia, Hopewell, and in its midst were two of my classmates, Aubrey Webb, having risen to the position of principal of a High School, had associated with him in the enlightenment of the cosmopolitan population, Beulah St. John. Other familiar faces then rose out of the darkness and portrayed their paths of life. There came to my ears the sentiment of Lillian Evans, "Happy Am I, from Care I'm Free, Why Arenlt They All Contented Like Me?" Sweetly and lovingly, she lrightened the home of a young professor of Chatham Training School. I heard the favorite quotation of Julian Gills, "Let not the creaking of shoes nor the rustling of silks betray thy poor heart to woman." He had closely followed his motto, for he was a bachelor and also an artist, studying intensively the Architecture of Greece. "And he went from place to place, gathering relics of the Old Greek Art." With a cat purring on the hearth-rug, dozing by the fire-side sat an old maid-her hair screwed up in a tight little knot on the top of her head. Her, I recognized to be Macie Inge still living in Appomattox, 4'Still achieving, still pursuing. " t'Learn to labor and to wait," brought to my mind the daily expression of George Martin 's face, and truly said, for he was the only member of our class engaged in active Christian service-being a. progressive Missionary, in China. 26 SAG R MA I heard the whirring sound of a dynamo, and saw Robert Beale, our electrician. He was following closely in the foot-steps of Thomas Edison, ex- perimenting incessantly with electricity and its applications. Then came Susie Booker. She had accomplished her long desire to be a Red Cross Nurse, and by her side, in one of the largest hospitals of France, was her most amiable companion, Doctor Thomas Turnes. Then to my surprise, whom should I see but a prime old bachelor, Roy Shotwell. He had always been popular among the fair sex, but to his sorrow had never found his '4Dream Girl." I next saw Lonnie Finch, who had won fame in the Athletic field, and was pitching ball for the " Giants." Among my lucky friends, who had risen to dazzling heights of fame, was Kathleen Rucker. In the West was a magnificent amphitheater, and there Kathleen was singing her way into the hearts ofthousands of people. I-Ier favorite selection was "Carry Me Back to Ole Virginnyf' where of course, she could catch more " Bass." And Lo! There I stood amidst the oaks, and behold-the rustling of the leaves ceased and my fate remained untold. PRoPHETEss. IP. S.-The author of the above, at an early age, became famous for her novels and stories of romance, all of which suggestive of their origin, speak for great truths and high ideals.-ED1'roR.l Last Will and Testament of Class '18 We, now in sorrow, salute you with one last good-bye, that makes our hearts tender and remembering an old proverb, " Overcome evil with good," we forget our little grievances we have held against each other, and bequeath to the following-with good intention and from a generous heart-the possessions of the Seniors of '18, To our persistent and never-tiring coach in H Paradise Lost," Professor Crawley, the fifty-page spelling essays of the Seniors of '18, may he secure the wanted information and profilt wpll thereby. In addition to this, our appreciation and gratitude for the many services renc erec us.

To Miss Thornton, the t'Chap's" smiles as it has been reported, she is particularly fond of them. To Miss Willie Stanley, a little powder and paint. To Miss Eddie Hardy, absolutely nothing-for what does she need? To Miss Hubbard, the good luck of the North Wiiicl, that it may bring home her treasure. . To Miss Holland, a "smokeless" room. To Miss Kate Franklin, a sign board, to hang over the Piano "keep your foot on the soft pedal." To Mr. Hamner, a glass eye, that will not flirt with all the fair sex of the A. S. A. S. Dormitory. To our President Monsieur Herman Bass, the song, "'They Go Wild, Simply Wilcl Over Me," as he is likened unto a magnet among the fair sex of the old A. S. A. S. To Julian Gills and Susie Booker the song: U The Sunshine of Your Smile." To Thomas Turnes and Miss Beulah St. John, who Seem to have been exchanging smiles, a smile that never dies. , To Lucile Caldwell, a box of writing paper that she may continue her correspondence to Mother UD-Zellers being private secretary. To Robert Beale and George Martin, the position as bootblacks, in the A. S. A. S. Dormitor . ToyLillian Evans, a diamond, as her other one has deserted her. To Macie Inge and Joe Inge, the happy trail leading to loveland, where in the twilight, she may hear him whisper, ' 'Maime Vous?" for both are students of French. To Elsie Payne, the love of "Smith"-her favorite expression. To Kate O'Brien, who wears an Irish smile, the "Irish Love Song", may she sing it well, with charming effect! 1 To Annie Laurie Marshall and Thomas Caldwell, the love and friendship of Nannie Harve . yTo Elliot Cheatham and Lonnie Finch, a deck of cards, and the song, "I Am Afraid to Go Home in the Dark," as all sports like to go home in the moon tide." To Roy Shotwell, the sole right to drive a Chalmers car. To Guy Harris and Richard Caldwell, a bit of sunshine. To Walker Thornhill, a monkey to keep him company. To Lewis Vaughan, 'fthe spoiled child,7' a rattler to amuse the homesick lad. To Harry Shotwell, just a little advice-don't let her eyes fool you. Last, but not least, to Aubrey lVebb, the "Young7' lady 's smile. And here's to the nice . Just a little advice: Little Juniors, Sophs and Rats " Don't forget, look wise"- All the old gloves and bats, This will your knowledge advertise.

When England, the home of our fathers, Struggled through wars untold, What caused l1er to win the battle? What made her knights so bold? What made that little band of men Withstand the ocean wave, And discover our America? Did not "Forward" make them brave? Our great and glorious country, The grandest land on earth, Was once a band of Pilgrims Fleeing from tyra1111y's girth, Struggling alone with the savage, Courageously working their way, What gave them strength for the struggle? "Forward,' ' by night and by day. Hard were the wars of our country, But victory has ever been ours, So now i11 this world-wide crisis, Again let us use all our powers, And fight for a world-wide freedom, Yes, fight for humanity's sake, Still borne to tl1e strife by our watehword "Forward," in the combat, awake! And thus as the earth 's greatest nations, From time immemorial till now, Have been lead to success by that motto, Let us, too, adopt it as our vow, And inspired by tl1e deeds of our fathers, Whose valour oft lead in the fray, Let us work and win in the battle, "Forward," though rocky the way. And then in the work of our High School, We also that motto may keep, And work for its glory and honor, And win, though the path be steep! So taking that glorious motto, That through all the ages resound, We 'll stiek to the fight, and conquer, f'Forward," till we reach surer ground. 32 Lv 3552? pix 3 ,JH1 J K Sf LISA Q4 fg Sophomore Class MOTTO: "Semper Paratus" COLORS: Purple and Gold EDWIN ADAMS ..

It was not a hard matter to decide upon a name, however, since each member wanted his society to bear the great name "VVa.shingtonf' The VVashington Literary Society was organized with forty-eight members, and from the very first, had its interesting program every Friday afternoon. Its members proved loyal 3.1111 efiicient, and at the end of the year were very joyful, because the Society had been crowned with victory in every contest with the Lee Society. In September, 1916, the Society began a new year. The Seniors of '15 were missed very much, but many new members came to till their places, making EL11 enrollment of fifty- two members. Again, the WVashington won in every contest which it entered. At the Hnal contest, it won the banner given by Mrs. Crawley. In September, 1917, the old members returned, and many new members were welcomed by the Society. This year the membership was sixty. The members were as loyal as ever, but the Society had tl1e misfortune of being defeated in one joint debate. It won in both musical contests, but in the last, by a very small margin. The final contest of this year was also won by the Society. The Spring of 1918, is drawing to an end. Many of the Societyts best members will go out with the graduating class, and though they will never be forgotten, we hope that others will come to fill the ranks, and the WVashington Literary Society will maintain its former record. 'History of Lee Literary Society In September, 1908, the Lee Literary Society, of Appomattox State Agricultural School, started on the road to fame, a little band of Pilgrims bearing the name of the greatest leader the South has ever known, General Robert E. Lee. Hard at first was the struggle, but nobly supported by each and every member, and wisely ruled by the officers, the Society soon acquired an important position in the school and became widely known. September, 1915, tl1e Society membership was so large that the faculty advised a division, and accordingly, two captains were chosen, and two societies were formed-one retaining the name of Lee, and the other, choosing that of Wasliiiigtoil. Soon contests between the two societies began, which were won by the Wasliiiigtoii each time except one. The banner of "Victory," given at commencement, was also won and kept by the Washington Society. But, although we grieve over our loss, we congratulate the VVashington in their success, and do not despair. WVe bear the name of General Lee, who, although he surrendered to his opponent, is yet the greatest man the South has ever known, and we, who have been several times defeated, acknowledge it boldly and without shame, trusting that we too, shall be great despite our defeat. So let us on, to the battle, working and struggling, fighting to the last and never ceasing 'till we attain once and for always H Victory." 46 Dormitory Life was one of the first to arrive at the Dormitory on September ll, 1915. The first person I met, was Miss Nannie I, Foster, one of our I popular grade teachers. The next sight which attracted my atten- W5 tion was Mr. Ernest Shotwell setting his suitcase down on Mr, ,h Crawley 's front porch and ringing the door bell vigorously. Since I had come into town on No. 8-the most popular train which passed 5-'D . through Appomattox-supper-time soon arrived 5 then I met a number of young men and young girls, whom I later learned to love very dearly. This was Saturday, and school opened the following Monday. My roommate and I managed, somehow, to live through that Sunday, and were ready for school when the bell rang hflonday morning. In the meantime, more boys and girls had arrived at the Dormitory. IVe tried to be jolly and nice, but, I think it was almost a perfect failure, as everyone of us were feeling blue and sick at heart, because we had left our homes and were now among strangers. Mrs. Abbitt, the matron, was lovely to us, and both she and Mr. Crawley tried to make us "feel at home." After we had been here a few days, we began to know each other, and we felt much better. Everyone was congenial, and we had music every evening, in our little reception room down on the first floor, and often we played games on the campus. One day, Ruthe Foster and I were passing down the hall, and saw written in large letters on one of the doors: B'Il8CIlZ'1iS Cfcwitpbcll. Ruthe said, '4For Heaven 's sake let's go in. It ls been so long since I saw a Campbell biscuit." The boys were very nice to the girls, yes, very nice, often we would be surprised by a box of candy, a bag of chinquapins 5 or peanuts coming through the window, while we would be poring C525 over some difficult lesson for the next day. The second floor was "No Man is Land"-perhaps c'Mick" could explain why this was true. Miss Pocahontas VVray, the teacher of Mathematics, was always "on the job,'7 when the boys wanted to have a tete-a-tete with their favorite girls, after returning from church Sunday nights. The broom learned, before the year was gone, that it had two duties to perform, this was an excellent way to convey notes from downstairs to an up- stairs window, unless the Demon CD appeared around the corner about the time the broom had gotten about half-way on its journey. 47 The first year in the Dormitory will always be remembered by everyone who was here, as being the happiest of all the years of dormitory life. It was more like our l1ome then, and we had much more pleasure than ever again. We enjoyed the winter sports a great deal, particularly skating on the icy cement walks, until one night HRunt" Rice fell and his head broke the walk up so that we could not skate any more. It was this year that 'LJimmy" 'Wim- bish and Nolan Gibson learned to dig up demerits. Then came Commencement, which was the end of our happy little circle. Many of our dear friends graduated and left us, never to return. It was a sad time-that last night of Comniencement-when we bade each other farewell, and our thoughts iiew rapidly back over the few happy months we had spent together at school. The most important feature of Commencement week, besides Senior night, was the Senior Play-Shakespeare's 'LHainlet"-which plainly showed that the class had not been idlers, by any means. Our vacation passed quickly, and we soon found ourselves back at school again. lt is very different now. Vile have a new faculty, and a number of new students, some charming young maidens, and some wonderfully intelligent C525 young men from different counties of the State-particularly those who hail from Halifax and Amherst. ' Ernest is back again with his smiles and dimples, and 'LRunt" Rice CI mean Professor Ricej returned with his kid brother. This kid is a wonder, too, not only in his classes, buteverywhere. There are three' young professors here this year, and they seem to enjoy playing Rook with the ladies in Mrs. Abbittls room, during the long winter evenings-judging from the hearty peals of laughter that reach the second floor, just when one is working out the hardest problem in the next day 's lesson. In the evenings, just after supper, the boys and girls gather in the recep- tion room and enjoy a few musical selections. Elliott 's splendid tenor blending harmoniously with the other voices, while his thoughts soar to the room just above. And shall we ever forget how Elsie blushed when Parson Moore played and sang his little song, 'tKisses One, Kisses Two"'? At the beginning of the second term, some new students entered school, Frances Myers, Herman Bass, and our old friend, Yeadon Wimbish, returned, all of whom we were glad to welcome. ' We entertained a number of our friends, by giving a mid-winter reception in the Dormitory dining-hall, on the night of January 19, which marked the beginning of the new term. When war was declared, our boys responded to the call of their country, and although they knew they were leaving a good school and friends, they felt 48 it their duty to serve their U. S. A., so Parson Moore, Hugh Oglesby, Robert Beale, "Long John" Fore and "Runt" Rice, volunteered. We missed them greatly from the dormitory circle, the place did not seem the same without them, but we felt proud to know they had such a patriotic spirit. Seeing our noble-hearted boys enlist in the army to iight for our country, aroused a determination in us to do our duty here more thoroughly than ever before, and we worked faithfully until commencement week, at which time we witnessed the graduation exercises of twenty-nine of our boy a.nd girl friends- fifteen of whom were pupils who boarded in the Dormitory. Many tears were shed when the old crowd separated, and each went away to do his, or her part in the world. . I Now another short vacation has iiown by and again on the morning of September 13, 1917, we find ourselves assembled in the auditorium, listening to addresses of welcome, delivered by different members of the faculty and well- known friends of the school. VVe ind quite a number of strangers at the Dormitory now, many new faces have come in to take the places left vacant by so many of our dear Hold" boys and girls. We soon begin work again, and ind that we have an entirely new faculty, but we have learned to love every member. Of course, we miss dear little Professor Johnny B. Roller in the Chemistry room, and we never hear his buttons fall on the floor any more, and that happy smile of Mr. Moyer 's has gone from our midst, also the charming ways of Miss Atkinson, and even the chickens and pigs all look lonesome since Mr. Rice is no longer here. Each one left a. host of friends here, who wish them success. But we can manage to give them up, now, since we have dear Miss Rollings to guide us safely through Fourth English, Miss Holland 's smiling countenance to lead us through the Math., and Miss. Gold to teach the girls to sew a straight seam, while Mr. Hamner and Mr. Crawley drill Agriculture into the hard heads of some of the boys. Mr. and Mrs. Spradlin are about the best friends we have, for they are the ones to whom we look for our meals. They are always kind and nice to us, they are loved by every one in the Dormitory-and I think Mrs. Spradlin has spoiled the girls by being so good to them. I-Iallowe'en is a memorable night in the minds of the Dormitory pupils. At 5:30 o'clock, the Ghosts were seen in i'No Man 's Land," preparing for the raid. While the Ghost 's exchanged places at the dining tables, the boys looked on in amazement. As soon as supper was over the Ghosts made their way very quietly down town. No study bell rang for us that night. During the raid, near Rev. MeElroy's home, one of the boys got sentimental, caught his girl 's hand and began saying sweet nothings to her. How do you suppose the poor fellow I 49 felt when he discovered-very soon--that his girl was none other than the dignified Miss Rollings? His greatest desire was to leave Appomattox that night. The Thanksgiving dinner, of 1917, is one we shall never forget. There were only a few teachers and pupils who remained here during the holidays- only those whose homes are a long way from Appomattox. Since the crowd was not so large, we had a sumptuous dinner served, which was enjoyed im- inensely. The Baptist boys and girls, of the Dormitory, organized a Sunday school class at the Baptist church. Miss Thornton is the teacher, and we have enjoyed attending Sunday school very much. One reason is because we have such a lovable teacher. The boys and girls rarely ever miss attending when they are here. The fifteen Seniors who live in the Dormitory, have worked faithfully this session , tonight we reach the goal. ' It saddens our hearts, for a moment, when we stop to think that this is the la.st of our happy High School days. We shall leave this dear old school tomorrow, and in years to come our places will be filled by others who will have to travel over the same road we have traveled, Wfe are not altogether happy when we bid our school friends farewell and leave them to take up our share of life's work. .But the fond remembrances of our happy school days will ever remain with us. ' Tonight we launch,-where shall we anchor?

VV. Moses now resides. There were only about a hundred pupils, including those in the High School, who were taught in a small cottage back of the jail, but I am glad to say such conditions did not prevail long, before the progressive people of Appomattox-led by the principal, Mr. Crawley-saw the necessity for something better, and a meeting was held and funds subscribed for our present building, which will accommodate over five hundred pupils. This school is now called Appomattox Agricultural School. The new school, a two-story building with basement, has twelve rooms, among these an Auditorium, Library, Manual Training Vllorkshop and Chemical Laboratory. It is heated by two furnaces and lighted with gas. The dormitory building, which was erected in 1915, is a three-story brick structure. It contains a reception hall, reading room and home accommodation for forty-four pupils. It is also steam-heated and gas-lighted. The location for the new building was well chosen, it being in the most desirable part of the town. Since the new building was erected, the following subjects have been included in the course of study: Domestic Science, Domestic Art, Music, also a Corn Club, Canning Club, Poultry Extension, Live Stock and Practical Agricul- ture. All this has proved a successful addition and the number of teachers in- creased from four to fourteen. There are seven school wagons that bring in children from the country, for the people were quick to see the advantage of consolidation. The enrollment has increased from one hundred and sixty to five hundred and four pupils. One hundred and ten have been graduated from this school. There are two Literary Societies-The Wzishington and The Lee. These are important factors in the intellectual and social life of the school. Athletics is an important part of the work during the school year, special hours being arranged for baseball, football, basket-ball and tennis. All pupils are urged to take a part in out-door exercises. L The Y. M. C. A. and Boy Scout Organizations oder opportunities for those interested, and enables them to do good work for the school and community at large. - SUSIE BOOKER, '18. 51 so 525,62 A Youth and Spring VIRGINIA ITANCOCK Oh! the joyousness of Spring, When flowers begin to wake, And the sky takes on its glowing tints, The earth new beauties take. Oh! the joyousness of living- Of living and being young, Of mingling our spirits with notes of the birds, And hearing songs never sung. Then let us enjoy the Spring and our youth, For the days so swiftly fly, When comes the chill of the Winter ls age, And the flowers all droop and die. But let us not forget that Spring must pass away That budding flowers must fade, And the throbbing heart cease at last, When the debt we owe is paid. Let not the falling of the leaves make us sad, Nor the stop of the 1nusie's strain, For in the budding of the flowers, We feel that we too, must live again. 52 7 gee Sign of Peace WA LK ER- TUORNHILL, '18 VVhen we View the situation, Wrought in every single nation, And the armies on the way To that "Anti-Germann fray, There is one thing we can say, And it 's happening every dayf Germany is getting weaker and wiser, And we are going to get the Kaiserf When we view the American fleet, And our soldiers on their feet, When we see them cross the ocean, And they've got a fighting notion, I'll tell you boys, itfs true, Watch the Red, llVhite, and Blue, Make old Germany somewhat wiser, And subdue "Old Bill," the Kaiser. When you the boys in line, They have left their girls behind, While they face the cannon ball, Some are destined, there, to fall, In the wind the ilag will flop, But "Old Gloryl' is on the top, Germany knows the world eyes her, And it hurts "Old Billy," Kaiser. When we see our boys are gaining, Doing justice to their training, And their eyes begin to shine, As they peep across the Rhine, And the French with them uniting, For they are all doing some fighting, Old Germany is getting wiser, And she has a trembling Kaiser. When we hear the drums are beating, And the Germans are retreating, And our aeroplanes are hurling, Bombs into the heart of Berlin, And the earth, it seems to shake, And dead men almost awake, Tho' we know he 's been a prizer, It's good-bye to the Kaiser. 53 .

HE aim of our school is to make of us worthy citizens, and in order to accomplish this purpose, we must answer now the call to service- I our service-a part in the greatest task- ever undertaken in the history of the world. We must have our share in the honor that will come to America when autocracy is abolished and democracy reigns supreme where 'er the sun doth shine. We are catching the spirit of true democracy-the brotherhood of man- by extending comfort and sympathy to the homeless across the sea. We thus express our faith in our government and loyalty to Old Glory. "Long may she Wave over the land of the free and the home of the brave." Our school became an Auxiliary of the American Red Cross, in January, 1918, and since that time has enrolled 270 members, donated 51910 to the Red Cross cot at Catawba, and promised to make 550 garments for the destitute French and Belgians, which articles are being sent in monthly shipments. We have devoted the entire time allotted the sewing classes to this Work, and our Domestic Science rooms present a busy and interesting scene. Many at little refugee will be warmed and cheered wearing the garments made by our Junior Red Cross girls. Ever ready and willing to help, our boys and girls are learning lessons of unselfishness, usefulness, economy and patriotism. 62 SAGQ LQSA OFFICERS HERMAN T.

H stands for Hamner, with rubricant top, A dear little toy, a sweet little fop. I stands for Inge, in knowledge how deep, Brilliant when wake, but more so when asleep. J stands for jest, which also means fun- It is Robert Beale that enjoys a good pun. K is for knowledge, that determines our fate, It is now reported belonging to Kate. L is for Lucille, president of The Lee, Equal rights for women, is always her plea. M is for Martin, of porcupine ilk, . His head's like a cocoanut, without any milk. N is for no one-who ca11 -it be- It was hard to choose, and we could not agree. O is for Oracle, a very wise one, It is Susie B. who plays this for fun. P stands for Payne, a classmates of mine, Witli Richard Smith dancing, she spends most of her time. Q stand for quibble, a very good bluff- It's Walkei' Thornhill who has never enough. R is for Rucker, so sure of her charm, She always keeps busy, but does little harm. S is for Shotwell, it is Harry you bet- For he is the one who is each teacher's pet. T is for Turnes, big Thomas of fame, So fond in his speech of a Biblical name. U is for uselessness, most often denied, But to Thomas Caldwell aptly applied. V is for Vaughan, a Shelley hc'd beg If legs were but meter and feet poetry. W is for Webb, a dancer at court, As long as he keeps young, he 'll be a good sport. X is for that unknown to us all, Great to some, to others very small. Y is for you who read all this rhyme-- You'd better otherwise be spending your time. Z is for Zellers, who leads every dance, And ne'er skips a class, when he hasn't the chance 66 LJQQX-Q JQKES, SAG a na Nellie Robertson ............,, Virginia Hancock ,..,.,....,..
