u RUBYE E. COATES Oak Grove, Virginia Cotie Household Arts And still they stared, and still the wonder grew. That one small head could carr}- all she knew. OU would wonder, maybe, if you could see the A-|- ' s Rubye carried away in sewing-, or if you could eat a meal prepared by her ; but the cooking and sewing are not all. Ask those who supervised her teaching whether or not she made good. Ask her schoolmates wdiether or not she has the ability to make friends. Our gTeatest fear is that she will some day forget her civilized manners and be- come skilful in using Chinese chop- sticks . Maury Literary Society, 1919-21; Athletic Association, 1919-21; Y. W. C.

I IIVE Madeline a horse and she be- J comes as happy as a queen in Fairyland. She does ride so well ! She came to us in 1917 — each yeal growing- in popularity and leadership. Sympathetic, unselfish, unassuming, loyal, lovable and enthusiastic — no ■wonder she was chosen the most pop- ular as well as the most beautiful girl of our class.

(0 WINNIE DAVIS CARTER Lent, Virginia Win Household Arts Perseverance keeps honor bright. INNIE is one of our number who works hard and accompHshes much. No task is too arduous for her mastery. Her motto seems to be, If at first you don ' t succeed, try, try, again. But along with her work who is more fond of a good time than she? Our wish for Winnie is that she will be as successful elsewhere as she was at the Training School. Y. W. C. A., 1916-21; Bible Study Committee of Y. W. C.

CLEWELL Richmond, Virginia Peggy Household Arts Happy are those who have a lyre in their hearts, and music in their minds, which their actions perform. fj BSOLUTE sincerity of purpose and straightness of action have characterized Margaret ' s endeav- ors throughout her school days with us. Her aspirations are divided be- tween an elocutionist and a social serv- ice worker. We think the two go hand in hand, for Margaret tells stories won- derfulh ' well, to the children at the Community Center down town. A fair start, Margaret. Keep it up.

o MARIAN VIRGINIA COGBILL Chester, Virginia Grammar Grades Always ready and willing to try, Never letting her work go by. H, what a pal was Virginia ! She is a deep thinker and has lofty ideals. She has an abun- dance of knowledge at her command. If anyone wants to know anything about Hygiene or Anatomy, just call on Virginia and she can tell you. She taught Geography so well at the Train- ing School that we think, in future years, we shall see her name written in the Hall of Fame, as an expert Geog- raphy teacher.

She is an all-round girl. Her highest ambition is to teach in Ash- land next year. Who knows the rea- son? If you tell her, the reply will be, I know it, and you can bet she does. Y. W. C.
