The Thronateeskay IQ21 HELEN WIGGINS “Her voice was ever soft, gentle and low, An excellent thing in woman.” We all admire what Helen does and what she is—one who never fails to uphold the dignity of ihe class. No matter what may arise for discussion or distraction, her serenity is unruffled. She is one of the rare Seniors who never raises her voice without saying something and her poise and gentleness are a constant marvel to the frivolous majority. Helen is often envied by the less fortunate not only because she cops a good supply of perfect marks in the classics, but she has naturally curly hair. Class President ’18. JOHNIE LEE WILLIAMS “Look for goodness, look for gladness, You will find them all the while.” A ray of sunshine can never be gloomy, and neither can Johnie Lee. From the first morning that she appeared in our Junior year, our class room has been a brignter place. She is a classical student, but specifically known as a “Math Shark” and most fluently does she “parlez vous.” Johnnie Lee’s third hobby is the art of expression. Page Twenty-three

The Thronateeska, 1Q2I RUTH LONSBERG “No magic shall sever Thy music from thee ’ Ruth is the musician of the Class. Her delicate touch and skilled interpretation produce heavenly harmonies, and often has she charmed away weary moments for us with her wonderful music. Ruth is also gifted with a pleasing originality, and she seldom does things just because others are doing them. When she goes to Converse College our best wishes will follow her for continued success. GEORGE MILLER “The girls all call him sweet; The very stairs he treads or. kiss his feet.” Mr. Miller, if you please. Silence cannot prevail when he’s around.
