GLADYS MARGARET BOXLEY Frederick Hall, Va. True Greatness Lies in Quiet u UST turn your eyes back to Septem- ber of nineteen liundred and twenty and you will surely remember Gladys as one of the new students that came to school that session. Beneath Gladys ' quiet and gentle man- ner exists one of our most conscientious and diligent students. She goes steadily on from day to day, never rushing into anything, and by her clear, steady manner has made a splendid record and gained a number of valuable friends. If you are ever in doubt as to your notes, just confer with Gladys, for she makes Punc- tuality her motto, and always has hers up on time. We feel that we can only add our sin- cerest wishes for Gladys ' success in the future. EFFIE FRANKLIN BROADDUS Newtown, Va. Love to one, friendship to a few, and good-will to all HOUGH Effie had reached her height in stature when she came to us, that height was nothing to the high place in our hearts whioh she has won with her gentle smile, her good work and her suc- cessful effort to win honor for her school and class. Did anyone ever see Eftle in a hurry? Even on the basket-ball floor that ease and deliberate manner has in- spired us. She happens always to be in the right place at the right time. Apart from that you will find Effie of a most generous nature. Under that ex- terior of modest reserve she wears a great big friendly heart, full of a lot of jolly, good fun. For a sweet disposition and the ability to play the game well, to meet the situation squarely, we will hand you the laurels, Effie. Twenty-three

MARY LOUISE BLANTON McDuff, Va. I come to learn OUISE is a product of Greenville County. She has been with us four years and has been a quiet and hard- working member ever since. She believes in doing her best in whatever she under- takes, whether it is work or going home for week-ends, which she does quite often. But we don ' t blame her, because she lives so near. She is a girl of steadfast character and sturdy will. Her studious habits, sincer- ity of purpose and an unquestionable loy- alty thereto foretell a bright future for her. We wish her much success. MARGARET SUE BOTT Painter, Va. ' Not over-serious, not too gay, but a rare good fellow EHOLD! One of the best old sports in the Senior Class. Good old Bottey, that ' s what we call her, not that we think she ' s good at all, even if she is president of the Y. W. C. A., but she ' s just about the best remedy for the home-sick blues we know. Her smile is just one grand display of dimples and her eyes just run over with fun, and when she laughs — well, if Milton had heard it the boys and girls wouldn ' t be puzzling their heads over any 11 Penserosa, but we might have a regular jazz S ' Allegro, beginning like this: Hence, you mean old home-sick blues.

e m ELEANOR TEMPLE BROADDUS Newtown, Va. ] am ready LEANOR is a good sport and an all- around girl. If you want a good companion for a rainy afternoon or an ally for a frolic, she is Johnny-on-the- Spot with her jolly laugh and that air of do or die. But best of all is her clean sportsmanship on either the athletic field or in her classroom. She never seems to be impatient, and even though victorious she does not boast of her victory, but al- ways wishes that both sides might win. This is not all, for she is a good stu- dent and a firm believer in the old saying, Never put off till tomorrow. Good-natured, happy-go-lucky, always looking for the good points in others, but finding very little fault, we know that some day in the near future she will bring glory to the Class of ' 22. LUCILLE BROADDUS Smoots, Va. ' Smooth runs the water where the brook is deep UCILLE is a good sport, with all her quiet ways. In athletics we find her starring in each of its phases. Such is her fame on the Varsity that op- ponents fear her before they even see her. Just listen at a basket-ball game for the name Broaddus. Her achievements are not restricted to the gymnasium, however, and her success in teaching would perhaps lead us to believe that some day we may find her name high upon the roll of Educators of Virginia, if she were not so fond of going home for week-ends and being brought back on Sundays in a car by — well, her brother — we hear her say. We hope that you will continue to make goals in the future as easily as you did on the gym floor. Go to it, Lucille! Twenty-lour
