l l THELMA MILBURN Thelma is a girl whom we may charac- terize as an all-around good sport, with lots of masculine hearts to her credit. With this title, it is needless to say she has lots of friends and good times. BENNIE MILBURN Bennie may be small, but someone told us that she is a dandy boss. We wonder whether her ability at drawing will be turned into designing, or drawing checks on Fred. Bennie is a good sport, a won- derful dancer, and a beautiful girl. Here's to her success. EUGENE COOK Eugene is our mighty Sergeant-at-Arms whose august and severe Visage causes all Seniors to utoe the mark. Our dear little Senior, Eugene Cookg At the girls he is seldom seen to look, But once from behind his book I'm told a glance at L1 girl he took. LUZELLE MITCHELL Though her stay with us has been brief, Luzelle has won many many friends. We girls can't blame the boys, for she is a beautiful and winsome girl. We do not pity 6'Turkey for being so faithful, for we, too, are worshippers at her shrine. FRED HOSKINS Fred is a side show when you get him started. He may be foolish at times, but some one fwe ainit a-saying whoi said that his heart was on the right side. Fred intends to be a coach just like Mr. Shot- well. Watch him practice or. the Gram- mar School boys.

MARIE JOHNSON Maries kten come backi' has proved her to be worthy of a place in Business English class. See Franklin if you doubt me. 'LA crown of yellow wavy hair, And eyes of tender blue, Yet the darkest shadows chase away, RUTH FRY Ruth is as full of mischief as the sky is full of stars. She is a brilliant student, a gifted musician, and an accomplished flirt lreferences furnishedl- 'Like Minorvrfs is her wisdom, Like Apollois is her smile, Yet she is in the Bible, When Marie smiles up at you. 11s a maiden without guilef, GRAY BROWNE There is much discussion as to whether Cray is bashful, or just modest, but whichever he is, he is a fine Business Manager. He contradicts the theory that hopposites attract, for his taste in girls semms to he blonde ones Qbrunettes, please weepl. HHe was blue-eyed, he was bonnyg He was buoyant, he was sunnyf, EDGAR GOODNIGHT g'Goody keeps himself busy trying to get out of handing in themes or managing for an excuse from detention. He did not run for class beauty, but if he had, we would have given it to him, for he can have anything he wants from the Senior Class. JOE HAZEL MCBRIDE Take a goodsmixing howl into which put two cups of common sense, one cup of fun, and four eggs of imagination, sift in and mix well three cups of freckles. Flavor all this with a teaspoonful of ser- iousness, and behold! you have Joe Hazel.

J. W. MAGGART 4'Wop is the famous football center whom the girls have vainly tried to charm, but he casts impartial smiles upon all of them. One might think him fickle, but on account of his splendid work as Sec- retary of athletics, we can hardly think him so frivolous. FRANKLIN HAYNES Franklin is a combination of friendli- ness and mischief. He is a comedy in spite of himself. 'alllozv liereis to old Franklin Haynes, our class president, With his bright red sweater and devilish gring The rnost sturlious person that God ever SCrlt To hinder his fellow men ' GERTIE BLAIR Attention, here comes our ray of sun- shine! Gertie and her curls now appear! Oh, how the girls all envy her. When she is a person's friend, you may know that she is a true friend. Ask her what letter in the alphabet she likes best and she will invariably answer, HE. SU SIE MOORE She'd make a lovely old maid fthe mod- ern type with a business air and a dignie fied bearingl- It will be a misfit if she is not a Miss always. Maybe she'll be an Mold maid, Maybe she'll notg But whatever sheill be, I'm sure, 'Twill be the top of the pot. -24- FRANCIS DAVIS Francis leaves the negro preacher in the shade when she is called on to save the Sc-3nior's reputation. When Miss Clack says, l'Francis, have you studied your Eng- lish lesson?,' she replies with her favorite expression, I can not tell a lie. An honest two! rnarfs the noblest work of God.
