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

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

ALICE FLORENCE BROCKLEY Hampton, Va. ■ ' There is more owing to her than is paid ; and more shall be paid her than she ' ll demand ERE ' S a girl we are proud to know, and one we all go to when we get in a tight place. She ' s a quiet, easy- going sort of person, with a soft voice that would melt the very hardest hearts. When we give a party or have to make candy, Florence is always there to do her share. Now, Florence is not only a domestic worker, for she believes in doing her best in whatever she undertakes, be it teach- ing or studying. With your pluck, Florence, we know you ' ll have the best of luck. DOROTHY MARIE CARPENTER Del Ray, Va. To know her is to love her pTH F I would write all I know about hJ Dorothy, it might fill a book, so I will just bring out a few of the main topics and Rob the readers of the de- tails. Dot is a quiet, unassuming little thing, but when it comes to business she ' s a wise old owl. To all business people who need businesslike persons in their of- fice, we hereby recommend Dorothy. Apart from business, she is somewhat of an athlete and somewhat of a scholar. A good many girls who go out to teach usually end up by teaching one, but Dor- othy goes them one better by teaching one in the beginning. Dorothy is quite good natured. She possesses a disposition that anyone would recognize as lovable. We have learned that she is an all-round good sport, except in her correspondence, but we are hoping that she will do better next time. Tweiity-fivi
