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

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

MOLLY EMILY COATES Oak Grove, Va. ' 1 must talk or I shall die lAKE a good look at this picture and ) see if you can ' t catch a hint of that you independent little toss of Molly ' s head which we see so often. The first thing- anybody notices about her is that she has a decided propensity to hold dif- ferent opinions from those held by others ; if you want her to agree with you, you must tirst say what you don ' t think. An- other noticeab le characteristic of Molly is her fluency of speech — talking is her long point. As a certain professor says : Miss Molly will have her say or bust — she ' d better have her say! As a basket-ball player, Molly is one of the fastest ever; as a poet, she ' ll some day win fame as a Shortfellow. A shin- ing star, surrounded by glory, both in her rr- studies and on the athletic field — that ' s N l REBIE JANE CARBIN Fredericksburg, Va. An ounce of mirth is worth a pound of sorrow H ETHER it ' s her only piece of candy or her last hair net, Rebie will hand it over to you and forget if you want it. Her good disposition and jolly good laugh have made us all admire her. We couldn ' t go one bit farther without bring- ing in some slight remark about the men. She has one for every occasion, and we have even heard of two certain gentle- men. We haven ' t room to enumerate the fine qualities that belong to you, but just re- member that where you step out to take your place in the world, you have our very best wishes for success. Twenty-six
