tt—g (TP ( DAVID T. GUIN The David that killed Goliath has nothing on our David, for he can kill more time than the whole Mexican Army. David is sometimes called “Fatty” by his friends, but he indig- nantly replies that he is not fat—just plump. David’s favorite position is sitting on a park bench. BERTHA BRIGGS “Bertie” is a laughing blend with a charming personality. She is very in- tellectual, and her grades are the envy of all her classmates. She studies hard during school hours, but as soon as the bell rings she becomes the liveliest and jolliest of the High School crowd. MAY MARTIN May is certainly an asset to the Senior Class not only for her beauty, but also for her other accomplish- ments. She says she shall specialize in music, and at present she appar- ently gets her instruction at the Queen. A light-hearted, lovable girl, Her thoughts are always in a whirl. ONAH MITCHELL “Pete” in an all-round good sport. She makes good grades, but her best characteristic is her sense of humor. When Onah is mentioned, everyone thinks of how pretty she looked as an Indian maiden in “Pocahontas.” MARVIN MILLER We owe lots to Marvin for the splendid write-ups he has given the Senior boys, for the write-ups cer- tainly are realistic. Marvin is “Al” in all his studies, and we know this little fellow will do big things some §

ANNIE MATHEWS You heard her; you saw her; now you can’t forget her, for she is just abou‘; two-thirds giggle and one- third real fun. Annie delights in pass- ing the paper basket and in telling jokes, and frankly admits that she is he biggest one out. But she is worth her weight in gold. ROBERT WILSON Bob has the reputation of being the best authority on flappers, since he has written more themes cn that sub- ject than any other boy in High School, except John Clark. Bob may look silent, but if you are in any of his classes, you'll find out he keeps MARY AGNES DRYDEN Mary Agnes has a certain way of fixing her hair, passing notes, and of walking, which no one else can perfect as she does. A girl so neat with smile so sweet; One like her you seldom meet. JANE STINSON No bobbed hair here! Jane relishes biscuits. Senior Day parties, and young men from Washington—but “Keep it in the family,” says Jane. Wit, wisdom, cleverness, all are used To make this maid more winsome, But when it comes to springing Beware cf keen Jane Stinson. CHRISTINE DAVIS Christine is one whom 10 know is to love. She is a good student, and wins the respect of all her teachers. She has quite a broad knowledge of the Bible, and enlightened Mr. Wickline on the fact that a whale did not swal - low Jonah but that a large fish did!

LURLINE RENCHER An outsider might think Lurline dignified, but to those who know her best she is a lively sport. If you don’t believe it, just follow Ike’s and J. W.’s plan of slipping around o a G. an G. meeting, and watch her initiate new members into its mysteries. VERA REEVES Short, snappy and quick is Vera. She was like a whirlwind blown into our class—we think it was on Sunday, but perhaps it was blue Monday. But blue Monday loses its blues when you think of Vera, for she’s jolly wherever she is. Keep it up, Vera. AMELIA CLARK Since Amelia thinks that nothing worth while was ever accomplished by worrying, she sings that little “Clouds will vanish like a bubble If you only take the trouble Just to g-i-giggle-e-.” MALCOLM HART “Mike” may not be able to carry a tune, but he carries a smile that is worth a fortune. This smile and a sunny disposition, aided and abetted by ability to get real enjoyment out of work, will carry him far beyond the average in the old game of life. LELA DALTON Lela, like all tomboys, is chuck full of mischief. To look at her over- innocent face, would you suspect it? Just sit near her in the study hall and you will believe it 100 per cent. Our baby is little and mighty cute, But she is always ready for a Latin dispute.
