English, and French. May Miss Sara’s future be as bright as her illustrious past! MISS LILLIAN TODD Our faithful teacher who has always done her best, not only to help in our struggles with “Math, but also to assist us in all phases of school life. She is not only a teacher, but also a friend and a true companion to us all. MISS NAOMI DUNTON This able teacher has shown her ability to manage a restless set of people in the Com¬ mercial room. Capability and fairness are her dominant traits. We sincerely wish her luck whether her efforts be expended in domestic circles or in teaching young ideas to shoot MISS HORTENSE LEWIS Our Science teacher has made that course a most interesting and beneficial one. Fresh ' men are no longer fresh when handled by one who hails from William and Mary. MR. JOHN FRAY Mr. Fray, our History teacher, has proved himself a most worthy helper in times of need. Under his encouraging supervision, athletics have been made a great success. MISS MALTN EVANS During her two years with us Miss Evans has shown great skill and ability in the Seventh Grade work. MISS RUTH BEST Though having just entered our ranks this year. Miss Best has endeared herself in the hearts of her pupils. MTSS ELIZABETH TYLER Miss Tyler, who has been a valuable member of the Faculty for three years, has added great strength to our Grammar School Department and we hope that it may be our good fortune to keep her with us many years more. 12 CAPE CIIA1U.ES high school MISS LOUIS DRUMELLER In fourth grade work Miss Drumcllcr is unexcelled and has made herself a permanent fixture in the hearts of the pupils of Cape Charles High School by her winning personality. MIS S LEE DRUMELLER If by chance you should enter the third grade room, you would be astonished that such little folk could know so much. The situation is explained when you meet Miss Lee Drum- eller, the teacher in charge. MRS. ELIZABETH Me ALLIS TER The second grade room is adorned with skillful free-hand cuttings, made by the little folks. All this is due to the efficient direction of Mrs. McAllister. MISS REBECCA SCOTT Go down to the first grade room and you will find the Kingdom of Hearts ' Content.” There, with her gentle presence, loving care, and infinite patience, the royal lady rules her little citizens. Truly, Miss Rebecca Scott is Queen of more hearts than any other woman in Cape Charles, 13 EDITORIAL STAFF 3 o , ) „ . j jT t : ....i ' AL 1 Edita r-i n - Ch ief Elizabeth Beatty Associate Editor Evelyn Fra n k e c Business Manager Pearle Brown Class Poet Alice Dis hahoon Social Editor Kelso Stevenson Prophet Ida Mae Sweeney Honorary Art Editor Emerald Bristow Joke Editor Sallie Johnston Hoi r or a r3 f H is t o ria n Charles Evans Testator Louise Burton Athletic Editors Annie Mae Char nock Annie Tyler CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL Senior Class Cor.oKS: Red and Green Flower : Sweet Pea Motto : “Wisdom is better than riches 1 SDfftcet.s FRANCES MOORE .„„.... „. m .,President KELSO STEVENSON _______ Vice-President ALICE DISHAROON ..... ...Secretary IDA MAE SWEENEY ...._.. . .Treasurer Ada Marguerite Ashry “Bill” In mountains of grandeur Our land abounds. But Ada likes better The English “Downes” “Bill” has sailed serenely through t( Sen- iordom,” taking the ups and “Downes” as they come, without the effects of it so much as bringing a wrinkle to her fair brow. She might he called a Jack-at-all-trades, for she can do most anything and do it well Ada also has quite a domestic turn. She is able to keep a house from the cellar to the attic. “Bill” is not a very talkative human being but we have been putting two and two to¬ gether and have come to the conclusion that she will probably put her knowledge to a profitable use, “down on the farm,” A loyal friend, a good adviser, and a wonderful helper ! May your winning ways and good disposition carry you a long way to your desired goal. 16 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL —m E l ! z a B i:t h M ae B e att y “Billy” Edifor-tn-Chief of The Arrow and Dari, Second Vice-President of Bank, 1920 ' 21, ' 22 , Class Historian, ' 2L Bobbed brown hair, And big broifftt eyes. Are the gifts of the gods. And never despised. Though you search the world over, you’ll never find a more lovable and congenial girl than our “Billy.” She is gifted with a rare sense of humor which, fortunately, is balanced with a good-sized grain of com¬ mon sense, for the said humor sometimes crops out at the most inopportune moments. Go wherever you please, you will always hear that low, murmuring laugh of hers which secretly thrills the opposite sex. She has proved herself to be a true friend to every one, and never refuses to give assist¬ ance to any one in time of need. She is a pal well worth having, “Billy” is also a thorough student, and though she does not take an active part in athletics she is right there with the spirit of enthusiasm Here ' s wishing you great success in your future life, Elizabeth Anna Louise Burton “Wcesie” Testator of The Arrow. President of Tennis Club. f Mid hook and circles Her way she ' ll tread } And some day soon Her Emory she ' ll wed. Every one who knows Louise knows of her readiness to take part in all school af¬ fairs. “Wcesie” is just what she seems— a carefree and lovable girl, who is a pal to every one, and if you are privileged to lie within her friendship circle you are lucky indeed. Louise is one who can take short¬ hand dictation and typewrite efficiently, and we have great hopes for her as a business woman, unless her fair face and pleasing personality change her course of destiny and direct her steps to a cottage near “Brighton on the Sea.” We congratulate the lucky fellow, as we hear that she is very accomplished along the domestic line. When “Weesie” smiles upon you it is like a balm and we hope that smile will carry her successfully through life. 17 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL —m Pearle Virginia Brown “Brownie” Business Manager of Dart and Arrow. Joke Editor of Dart, Member of Tennis Club. Dame Fashion roamed the widt I world through, hi search of a competent girl To follow her fads and fancies net t And at last she settled on Pcarle. An example of perpetual motion has at last been discovered, but we never know just what direction it will take next. This example is found nowhere but in Pearle, ' ‘Brownie” is the hustling member of our Class—if you want anything done and done well, give it to her. She has the business ability of a Wall Street broker. She can sing well, and when it comes to dancing, she is right there. Not only along these lines is Pearle efficient, but also in school work she has never been known to fail. She is sometimes a little cross under the stress of unusually heavy business transactions, but only enough to give spirit to her effi¬ cient class work. May her successes con¬ tinue and may she he as great in the school of life as she has been here. Annie Mae Char nock “Baby” Athletic Editor of Dart and Arrow. Member of Basket-Ball Team, 1920-21-22. Member of Tennis Club. Assistant Captain of Basket-Ball Team. She ' s just a little girlie, And flumfmess is her sfyle. But she’s full of fun and mischief, And her face is one big smite. Our dear, rollicking “Baby” has a whole corner acre in the hearts of every one of us. No one has ever seen her when she was not happy, full of fun, cheerful, and ready to do just whatever you wanted her to do. We might say that her chief fault is ex¬ cessive talking, but we all love dearly to listen to her, so we have no right for criticism. But though we may laugh at her happv-go-lucky nonsense, we value her bub¬ bling spirits and know her for what she is— a generous, warm-hearted, good-natured, carefree girl. She seems to have an ex¬ treme fascination for the opposite sex, since she is most often seen in their com¬ pany. We hope that her smile may go a long way towards paving her way to suc¬ cess. 18 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL Alice May Georgia nna Disharoon “Pest” Secretary of Class, 1920-21-22. Member of Tennis Club. Class Poet of Dart and Arrow. Secretary of Basket-Ball Team, 1921-22. A poet of merit and right good wif Is often hard to find f But Alice to these adds merit 3 The art of being kind I f you should enter our schoolroom ai any hour of the day you would hear, no doubt, as your welcome, her giggle. Then you would giggle, too, for it is irresistible. But you must not think this her only ac¬ complishment. We are all proud of her as a friend and we all love to call her that, for she is a true one to each one of uh Never have we seen her in a bad humor. She is always so sunshiny and bright that she chases away all the frowns, and lo! we forget everything that is unpleasant. We feel that whatever her corner in life, she will keep it ever bright as she has our school. Evelyn Joy Frankel “Jinx Associate Editor of the Dart and Arrow, Her step so light and graceful Draws many an envious glance. When Evelyn, tossing her raven locks. Steps forth into the dance , She is just a hit of a Senior, possessing the brains of a genius. Realizing that knowledge is power, she has turned atten¬ tion to attaining this capacity, for in Eve¬ lyn we find much capability, strengthened by intelligence. She never goes to class unprepared. When there is anything to he done, call o n “Jinx,” and all will end well. She is cheerful about her work and was never known to be in a hurry but takes things smoothly. Dancing is Evelyn’s fa¬ vorite pastime, and we would not be sur¬ prised to see her name among the great stars in the future. She is the possessor oi a wealth of black curls. With determina¬ tion as one of her predominating charac¬ teristics, we feel confident that she will make a success in life. 19 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL Sallie Riley Johnston Sal” Joke Editor of The Arrow. Never in a hurry, Always hard to find. If school sh ok id start at 8 :30, Sallic ' d he there at 0:00. “Sal 5 is steadfast and demure and lias proved to lie a loyal member of the Class by backing every enterprise. Sallie lias fin¬ ally conquered her subjects since a certain “king ’ is doing her obeisance at present. She is light-hearted and a jolly good sport, “Sal” is noted for tardiness, but “better late than never.” If you want to locate Sallie, just look in the Commercial Room and you ' ll be sure to find her. Once in a while she is a bit quick-tempered, but in a few minutes she is her own sunny self again. “Sal’s” tranquil disposition is the means of securing for her many friends who admire her exceedingly. We all sincerely hope that her future may be as bright as her school life John Padgett Milligan Mick” President of Class 1919-20-21. Member Baseball Team, 1920-21-22.

Noise, noise, everywhere, And not a hoy in sight, But if you wait with patience, John MidW will come to light . Working member of the Class, beneath all of his foolishness there may be found the usually very scarce germ of work. It is fortunate that each part of his anatomy usually works separately, occasionally they all combine in one effort, and then—look out! for something will most likely happen. We must not fail to mention that his tongue is his most overworked organ. All of his accomplishments have not yet been recorded. John deserves credit for being an all-round athlete. His tenor voice soars forth, like a nightingale in the moonlight, singing for its love. To this is added the knowledge of being able to tremble cor¬ rectly over the strings of a ukulele. You are a worthy member, “Mick,” and may your after life be as successful as your High School career. 20 “ ' T CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL -« Sadie Kozak Shorty Short hat id is her hobby, Typing is her fun, Sadie ' s a (ways studying. And all her work ' s well done. Sadie is the most diligent student among us. In fact, her most intimate friends are her hooks. Her eagerness to study we all admire and only wish that her generositj would extend far enough to give us some of it 4 She has a good spirit and is one who is not only willing to do her part, but more if needed. She is quiet in appearance but is true to the old saying that still waters run deep. We wonder what a glimpse into Sadie’s silent soul would reveal? Perhaps her thoughts are of far greater value than ours so freely spoken. Sadie can do every¬ thing with equal accuracy. She can take shorthand dictation, typewrite admirably, attend to domestic duties, and above all, be a good sport. Pearl Frances Moore “Ted” President of Class, 1922. Member of Basket-Ball Team, 20-22. Member of Tennis Club. Blue eyes t baby nose, Lips of cherry red, Flaxen hair and rosy cheeks — Who could it be? Why “Ted!” Our President, and the finest that the best class in the world could desire. A friend, if you know the true definition of the word, combining gay good nature, a will and determination, with the necessary grain of common sense. A girl who walks the path of life without a complaint against any one. This is Ted.” These are some of her specialties, but her biggest ad” is her open heart Although she has a great head for business, she is always ready for fun, and by her hearty giggle that you hear at these times you are led to believe that she gets the fullest enjoyment out of what is occurring. We do not know what he vocation in life will be, but whatever it is she is certain to succeed. 21 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL - (C Kelso India Sacrev Stevenson “Kiss” Social Editor of Dart and Arrow. Manager of Tennis Club. Vice-President of Senior Class, ’21-22. ' Tis very seldom that you find So many arts in one combined. But “Kiss” can play, and acf t and sing, In fact, she can do most anything. “Kiss,” one of the dearest of our class¬ mates, is a girl of manifold talents. Win¬ ning ways and a melodious voice has Kelso. She also plays divinely, but they are not her only qualities, for by her pleasing per¬ sonality and genial disposition she has gathered to her side many friends, both male and female, and to these friends she is true blue. Kelso, contrary to other girls, gets everything she wants, even to the man in the “Moon.” She is interested in ath¬ letics of all kinds and though she takes no active part in them, she may always be found rooting on the front lines at the games. Good luck to you, “Kiss.” May your future life be filled with many joys. Annie Elizabeth Tyler “Rat” Captain of Basket-Ball Team, 1921-22. Member of Basket-Ball Team, 1920-21.

Cheer Leader, 1921. “Who filched that goal” did some one askf Why, “Rat” Tyler of the Senior Class f She can pitch ' em low or pitch ' em high , They ' re sure to get there by and by ♦ The High School inspiration in the ath¬ letic world l If there is anything to be done hi the way of athletics, call on Annie—she can do it. From leading the yells to pitch¬ ing the goal in the game she is entirely efficient. Not only in athletics does Annie star, however. She is one of our best stu¬ dents, most loyal pupils, and is a friend to every one. Ask for help and you will al¬ ways receive it. She has been with us but two years but these have made us wish that she had been here from the beginning. Business seems to hold much in store for Annie—we wish her the best of luck. 22 Alice Katherine Stephenson “Kats” Secretary of Class, 1919. Js she tall? Is she slim? Does she play with lots of vimf Then it surely must be “Katf 3 ’Cause she always plays like that , Here is our pride when it comes to polite accomplishments. Whenever we need music, be it sacred or jazz, “Kats” is to be counted on. She is always ready to play when called on and our assembly has often rung with the happy notes of her playing. She has a eheerful word for everybody, and there never was a better friend. By her sunny disposition and captivating manners, “Kats” always carries a host of friends in her train. It seems that a certain august person, originally from a distant land, has the same opinion that we have. If we should see her name in large gilt letters in the future, we would not be surprised, as this young lady intends to follow a musical career, unless the already mentioned per¬ son interferes. Barring obstacles, we all wish her a successful career. Marion Paige Nottingham “Pretty” Pretty, dainty, small and sweet, A fairer maid you’ll never meet. And never need you twice be told. To gain her love is more than gold , Paige is one of our sweetest girls, good nature personified, always wearing a smile, and never known to speak sharply to any one. Not only is she a Goddess of Beauty, but one of Love and Attraction. She is genial, sympathetic, and has a charming personality; one of those exceedingly rare girls who is liked by every one. She pos¬ sesses a certain dignity and reserve that one is forced to respect. She seems inter¬ ested in household arts. Who can tell what that means? However, we know that she has high “AMES” in life and may put her knowledge to practical use in the future, for others seem to have realized her worth, too. She has made a success of her busi¬ ness course and we predict success for her in the future. 23 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL ■ n ■ ' m Mary Elizabeth Nottingham “Lis” Always is a-smilin ' , Always havin ' fun , you want a pal worth having.

Though she seems to be happiest when teasing sonic one. she is a staunch and loyal friend. Nothing ever happens that doesn ' t hear about it and immediately brings forth some joke to fit the occasion. She never worries about anything, hut takes life easy and always has a good time. It is our sin- ccrest wish, Elizabeth, that you may be successful in establishing your future ca¬ reer as you have been in establishing your¬ self in the hearts of your schoolmates.

But aside from this, she is a good sport, a jolly com¬ panion, bright, and always ready to lend a helping hand. Indeed, she is a four-square girl, for she has been recognized as capable of sharing all of our activities, and no mat¬ ter what she undertakes it is sure to turn out a success. She may have her head full of teaching, but that ' s not all. You just wait and see—one of these days you’ll be surprised. 24 ■f.

And vamps the girls, “Bill” with bis curly locks and sunny dis¬ position just has a knack of creeping into the corner of everyone’s heart. It must be due to the fact that he has a smile and sunny word for everyone, along with the latest bit of wit he has gleaned and treasured to tell you, Willie has a special liking for Latin, and we have no doubt that in the near future he will be a Latin Professor or he may become ruler of the “Popes ’ When it conics to Athletics, Wil¬ lie is a shark.” He is always ready to lend a helping hand to his schoolmates and puts forth his best” in all favors asked of him. May you always come out on top with your jokes, Bill, and may they never rebound back home. 25 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL - Reminiscences T IS a sad duty for one to narrate the events of his beloved class, knowing that the time is drawing near for it to disband as a class, perhaps forever, and its associations to become only memories in the midst of years. It is for me a joy mingled with pathos to write the history of the Class of 1922, a class which through four long years of intermittent toil has carved its name in burnished letters in the Hall of Fame of the Cape Charles High School. The Class entered High School in the session of 1918-19 with an enroll¬ ment of twenty-five members. During our Freshman year we were quite active in academic, social, and athletic work. History repeated itself in onr Sophomore year, as we equaled or even surpassed our record of the former year. In 1920 we returned once more to the old Cape Charles High and with a new determination started on the third lap of the race. We lived up to our record in academic work and retained our social reputation throughout this year. Then we came to the close of our third year and as the curtain fell we gazed with eager eyes toward the last lap of the race, “Our Senior year,” and as we peered down the home stretch we saw waving in the distance the sheep¬ skin for which we had labored long, and with a thrill of joy we knew that we had not labored in vain. At the beginning of the term of 1921 we came back full of energy for the year ' s work and with the splendid aid of the Faculty we succeeded beyond our highest expectations in all phases of school work. The Class had an en¬ rollment of twenty members, who, by taking advantage of the different courses offered by the school, prepared themselves for their future work. At last the dream of years is realized. We have reached the goal and as we pass to onr reward it is with a feeling of appreciation and love for our Alma Mater that has labored so long in our behalf, and blended with our happy appreciation is the resolve and hope that in the future years of life we shall ever keep deep in our hearts the ideals of principle and character which she teaches. It is with sorrow and sadness that the Class of ’22 bids a fond farewell to the Cape Charles High School forever, and may we say, with apologies to Dr. Holmes: “Here ' s to our school life, its gold and its gray. The stars of its winter, the dews of its May, And when we have been to onr High School so true, God take care of her children, the Class of ’22T A Unique Journey T LAST the time had come when I was to leave my home State, Virginia, and take up my work in California. My conservatory not opening until the first of October, I decided to take one month for visiting some points of interest in my native land. At seven o ' clock Thursday morning, I found myself at Pennsylvania Station, New York, Not knowing just which way to turn or seeing any one at that moment whom I thought capable of assisting me, I decided to use my spare moments to purchase a magazine across the street. Suddenly I was startled by a slight touch on my shoulder and turning 1 saw a dark figure and noticed the sign on the cap— “Traffic Cop A I really had to look twice, for the face under the cap was none other than that of Ada Ashby, an old schoolmate. She told me of the wonderful life she led and, indeed, it sounded quite thrilling. Just then there was a great commotion and Ada had to clear away a “street blockade.” I watched her skill and hade her good luck in her well-chosen work. I returned to the station and made inquiries concerning the schedule and discovered I had just time enough to catch a train westward bound. Just a short distance from Syracuse, something happened to the firebox and we were detained for more than an hour: never having- visited Syracuse, I thought this a splendid opportunity to, at least, catch a glimpse of the down¬ town district, so stepping from the car and crossing the tracks, I was con¬ fronted by a large building facing in the opposite direction. Walking around to the front of the building I read: “Miss Burton ' s Charity Home.” I was very much interested, so I entered the lovely building, to see a nurse ' s white cap and a few little golden curls escaping from beneath it. I knew I could not be mistaken and when she turned T recognized Louise Burton, of the dear 28 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL old Class of ? 22. My investigation stopped here I spent the rest of my hour hearing how my friend was a real Sister of Mercy, reaching out a helping hand to those in desperation Truly her work of reconstruction was almost divine, and I felt that her life was a reflecting honor to our Alma Mater and to the Class of 1922. Again a thrill of pride came over me to have been a member of such a class Having about three hours ride now before I could reach Buffalo, I bought some magazines and a New York Herald . I read my paper through and through until I thought I had missed nothing, when suddenly my eyes fell upon a picture and the headlines: “Second Pavlowa—Evelyn Frankel made a great hit at the Metropolitan Opera House last night where her won¬ derful dancing, which only Anna Pavlowa could equal, was displayed I was absolutely astonished, but it was certainly Evelyn in the picture, with the long black curls. Oh! how I wish I might have seen her, but then it was really remarkable that I should even have read about her When I arrived at Buffalo I went to a hotel for the night. It was then dinner hour, so I dressed hurriedly, went to the dining-room and ordered a private table I was waiting for my order to come when suddenly a voice behind me said, “Well, where in the world are you going? “Likker!” It could be no other One of the most noted lawyers in Buffalo and just out from court where he had won his case! We spent a very pleasant evening together, talking over old school days and the time “Miss Sara kept us in for dancing on the rostrum and made us write, “Dancing and playing are delightful during school hours —one hundred times! The next morning I arose early to prepare for the trip up Lake Erie. I was seated comfortably in my chair when I noticed a striking figure It moved on tip the deck, stopping directly in front of me. The first thing I noticed was a ring on her finger : leaning over, I read, “Cape Charles High School 1922, and just then she turned—Pearle! “Well, of all things ! Out came her favorite expression. She told me she owned a fashion shop in Chi¬ cago and that she was just returning from a trip to Paris and New York with winter fashions. At Milwaukee we parted, after expressing our extreme de¬ light at seeing each other again. I ascended the steps and entered the Travelers Aid Building. In the office sat a neat-looking stenographer, not of the kind who chew gum and use slang, hut a real girl. It was Sallie! I knew she would succeed somewhere 29 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL in the great business world, and so she had. She gave me my information and I went away once more, delighted with having heard from six of my classmates. Ah, the old world isn ' t so large, after all! Returning to the boat, I picked up a paper left in my chair and read: “Missionaries Leave for China and Russia ' There was a great list and on down the line I read, “Alice M, Disharoon, Cape Charles, Virginia, Work hi China, and under her name, “Sadie Kozak, Cape Charles, Virginia, Work in Her Native Country.” Alice, the “Pest” of our Class, a missionary! Incred¬ ible! And Sadie! Good luck to you, Sadie, in vour life work! When I reached Chicago, I mounted a trolley and went up town to shop. I bought the materials I needed and was going up Michigan Avenue, when suddenly I spied a sign which read: “New Novel— ' The Katydid That Didn ' t by Annie Tyler.” Where had 1 heard that name? Urged on by my intense curiosity and hazy recollection, I purchased a copy of the novel I boarded my car and on my way to the station read the facts of the life of Annie, one of the twenty-one of ' 22. Arriving at the station, I discovered that I had overstayed my time and missed the train, so I went to the Blackstone Hotel for the night When I registered I saw “Annie Mae Charnock.” Could it be possible? But, no— when suddenly, “Well, hello, old dear, where did you hail from?” Annie Mae ' s slang! After she told me she was traveling agent for “Elliot and Company, 3 we decided that we would go to the Auditorium and see the opera given by the Metropolitan Opera Company, Many people came until the house was filled to its uttermost capacity. As the curtain rose, seated at the piano in the orchestra was a very familiar figure and when the first chord was struck, Annie Mae said: “Oh, I know that ' s Rats ’ After the program, we sent our cards and were received by Katherine with one giggle and a “Well, honey!” We congratulated her on her marked success and returned to our hotel where we talked until the wee snia’ hours The next morning as we were returning down Michigan Avenue, I saw a sign—“Dollar Day at E. F, Hoff master ' s.” Annie Mae informed me that it was Edwin, owner of the largest store in the world. I soon left her and re¬ turned to the station. Upon arriving at Bismarck, I was greeted by, “Well, Tommy, come here to me!” Turning I saw—Elizabeth Beatty! She took me to her delightful home at Bay Park Avenue, where she introduced me to her husband, ‘‘Fred¬ erick” Van Burn, who was a wealthy ranch owner. Just then she opened the v- : ■ CAPE CHARLES ITIGH SCHOOL ■ - M door and there stood “Ted ' Doctor now, if you please! Ted a doctor, bobbed hair and all! Unspeakable joy! Two at one “pop”! Dear old Class of 22! While passing through Cheyenne, read a sign—‘McGrath Truck Co.” Attracted by this familiar name, I asked the conductor who the manager of this establishment was. He told me it was William P. McGrath, of Virginia. Willie! You always would help the other fellow with his load. May you always be successful in your pulling. I reached Colorado at nine o ' clock one Wednesday morning, and saw a great mass of people gathering around the Grand Canyon. Upon asking a native, I was told that the bridge across the Canyon was just being completed. I was also informed that Senator Dunaway was to speak—and then f saw Ralph—a member of the United States Senate! The bridge was lowered and Mick”— The Man Who”-—.stepped forward. But what is this coming? The first automobile to cross the Grand Canyon—a brown Paige, A slight figure steps from the car and here we are, four members of the Class of ' 22— “Mick,” “Bags,” Paige and I. Almost a reunion! I left them somewhat reluctantly and traveled through to Dos Angeles. After reaching my destination, I engaged a taxi and shortly arrived at my conservatory, where I was conducted into the professor’s office. “Kiss”! and there we could carry on our work together, and for more than a year I had lost sight of her! She had been elected as Professor of Music in the very conservatory in which I was to work. I related to her the positions and good fortunes of our classmates. She told me that “Liz” was teacher of a district school a few miles distant from Los Angeles. Here we are—the famous twenty-one of ' 22 ; and now let Time draw the curtain and leave these pleasant sights, and Fortune’s horn he refilled, and may the kind goddess go out to distribute her gifts among mortals. “Diving and finding no pearls in the sea. Blame not the ocean, the fault is in thee.” L M. 5., Prophet , 3 22. 31 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL , ■ - The Last Will and Testament We, the Class of 1922 of the Cape Charles High School, of the town of Cape Charles, and the State of Virginia, being of sound mind and generous disposition, do hereby make public, and declare this our last Will and Testa¬ ment in the manner following: We do hereby will and bequeath- Item T To our beloved Alma Mater: 1.

We were thirty in number then, but as the years went by losses and gains changed our roll until, when we entered High School, September 17, 1919, there were only eight of us who had managed to cling together during the seven years of Primary and Grammar grades. But others had joined us, and the total number of “Frogs’ ' was twenty-eight. We organized our class and elected the following officers: Arthur Page Disharoon, President; Elizabeth Hurlock, Vice-President; Grace Wyatt, Secretary, and Allison Mills, Treasurer. My! but we had a good time that first year of our High School life. Of course, the upperclassmen put on airs and teased us about being “fresh and green,” but we little “Froggies” soon learned to “hop” very well and to dive into our self-content when upperclassmen almost smothered us with their superior airs. We worked and played happily all the session and closed our Freshman year on the fourth of June with a banquet for the Seniors and Faculty. Back we came in September with the resolution to work still harder and have more fun during our Sophomore year than we had the preceding ses¬ sion. Elizabeth Hdgwood was chosen for our President: Helen Goflfigon, Vice-President; Elizabeth Hiirlock, Treasurer, and Virginia Wilson, Secre¬ tary. The Sophomores were well represented in athletics, having three mem¬ bers on the Football Squad and three on the Baseball Team. The only important event for us during the year was the party we gave the Seniors and Faculty at Christmas. We thought this an unequaled success and immediately planned to eclipse even ourselves by a “Banquet” at the close of the term, but the Faculty seemed to think that our heads were being turned by our social aspirations and they forthwith applied the brakes Thus the rest of our Sophomore year was a sad blank to us, but we drowned our dis¬ appointment in hard work and came to the end happy and hopeful. 43 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL ; ■ r And now we have come to our Junior year! We have worked hard and made great progress with Miss Sara as our teacher. For our officers we have, Fletcher Thompson, President; Elizabeth Hogwood, Vice-President; Arthur Page Disharoon, Treasurer, and Virginia Wilson, Secretary. On October 27th, we began the High School social activities with an oyster roast at “Recluse,” the home of Elizabeth Hogwood. We are now working on our play, “Line Busy,” to be given February 24th, and we hope to make it a “howling” success. We are again well represented in athletics. Two of our hoys starred on the football field, and we are hopeful aspirants for success in baseball. We are looking forward with great pleasure to our banquet in June, when we hope to give the Seniors the best time of the year; and to next ses¬ sion, when we, as Seniors, will try to serve our dear old High School. “Let us then be up and doing. With a heart for any fate; Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labor and to wait. Louise Gladstone, ' 23 .

The High School spirit was soon aroused and at quite an early date our first class meeting was held, at which time the following class officers were elected: President, Herbert Stevenson; Vice-President, Mary Coulburn; Treasurer, Minnie Disharoon, and Secretary, Helen Grim¬ mer. Our class motto, colors, and flowers were then chosen, and then— well, didn ' t we just make every one sit up and take notice just to see what the Frogs could do! Although we did not have many social functions during the year, we did have a “grand and glorious” time at the one class party which we had at the home of Herbert Stevenson, However, we were indeed proud when in foot¬ ball, basket-ball, we were well represented by so many boys and girls, and when school closed for the vacation in May, although we were very happy to be promoted, it did seem—well, a little strange that when we next came back it would be no longer as Frogs but as Sophomores. Nevertheless, back we came in September, and really it didn ' t seem a bit strange either that we were Sops, after alb Shortly after school opened a class meeting was held, and Herbert Stevenson and Helen Grimmer were re¬ elected President and Secretary, respectively. Earl Marshall was elected Vice-President, and Mary Coulburn, Treasurer. Although it was rather hard, after having been away from school so long, we soon settled down to work and have remained so ever since. In social functions we most certainly have made up for those we missed last year. Our first class party was a Hallowe ' en one, held at the home of Mary Coulburn: and our second was indeed a treat—an oyster roast given by Mr. Fray. Needless to say, we enjoyed both exceedingly. Since then there has been no end to the good times. In athletics we arc doing equally as well, having had several boys on the Football Team, a number of girls on the Basket-Ball Team, and we feel sure that we ' ll have as gre at a number of boys on the Baseball Team. And so, as I bring this Class History to a close my only hope is that om next two years m High School will be as pleasant as the last two have been. Will we make it so? You can just bet your life we will! Mary Coulburn, ? 24 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL Colors : Blue and Gold Flower: Sweet Pea SDfftrers TUCKER WILKINS .. ADELINE MILLIGAN ....

Both in foot- hall and basket-ball they have several members starring, most particularly in Girls ' Basket-Ball. During the past year we have stood all the teasing of the Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors, but with all this we are still hanging on to our tempers. We think we deserve a prize, don ' t you?

Our enrollment numbers twenty-three, the highest number of pupils in this department so far, I he four¬ teen students who have been taking Shorthand this year are greatly indebted to Miss Dunton for their proogress, as they have made even more than the required number of words per minute. Three of these students took advanced Shorthand and made a good record. Seven teen of the students of the enrollment are in the Typewriting classes. This class deserves mention as having shown unusually good results, [hey have all made their requited Speed of forty words per minute, while some have surpassed it. The Bookkeeping class, number¬ ing ten pupils, has worked very hard this year and made a satisfactory showing It is safe to say that all these students will become successful business men and women after they leave the school where they have shown great efficiency. We wish to express our deepest appreciation to Mr. A, S DeJTaven, our able Principal, who has done all in bis power to strengthen the Commercial Department in every way possible, and make its credits of more value to the student. 62 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL Social Notes N order to work, we must have play. This is an accepted j): maple oi every phase of life, and nowhere is this principle more vital than in school life. In addition to our literary work and athletic activities we must have a social sphere where we can express the genial and congenial sides of our natui es. Our social activities have not been as pronounced this yeai as last, but we have managed exceedingly well as it is, since the ex- ■.uberant spirit of fun has played a great part in all such affairs. We look for¬ ward with great enthusiasm to the spring social season. Work, cooperation, and-tjfchool spirit are the leading factors in our everyday problems. Most of our social activities have taken place at school, although a few have been held at private homes. We have not, however, allowed our social life to interfere with our school work. The social fetes taking place at school may be summed up as follows: d he first a Band Concert—was given on Armistice Day, by the town band. This was followed in December by a reading, “A Kiss for Cinderella,” given by Miss Rose YV illis, under the auspices of the United Daughters of the Con¬ federacy. I lie proceeds from this were appropriated toward the purchase of I he Libiary of Southern Literature for the High School Library. These books are unusually fine and we appreciate them very much. A week later the Senior Class presented their class play, “Miss Fearless and Co.,” which was a decided success. The next feature to take place was Dr. Kate Waller Laiiett s lecture on Our obligations to those who have made the United States of America.” 1 his was followed by the organization of an American Legion Auxiliary in our town. On February 24th the Juniors presented their class play, “Line Busy.” This presentation was a marked success, not only from a financial standpoint, but also in dramatic merit. In addition to these affairs which took place at school, the Juniors entertained the Seniors and Faculty at a delightful Oyster Roast, at the home of Miss Elizabeth Hog- wood. The Seniors entertained the Faculty at a Hallowe’en party given at the home of Miss Ida Mae Sweeney. This was followed by a Hallowe’en CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL party given by the Sophs at the home of Miss Mary Coulburn, while the “Frogs” made their debut into the social whirl of the school at a Halloween o party given at the home of Walter Blake. A few days before school closed for the holidays, Mr, Fray entertained bis class at an Oyster Roast at Kings Creek. At Christmas time the social affairs consisted chiefly in personal rathet than class and school, and since then all social functions have revolved aiound the Examination Rooms. Now, as we go to press, we look forward to the Junior Banquet at Com¬ mencement, where “WE will he guests of honor, I his will close the social life as pupils of Cape Charles High School. We hope, however, to keep in touch with our Alma Mater by the occasional Alumni reunions when we shall recall the happy moments and “Take a cup o’ kindness yet For days of Auld Lang Syne.” Among Our Books Ann and Sallie Johnston.... ....

But it you deceive your patrons, hired by falsehoods to your stoic, then. 1 11 be angry men and women thirsting for yonr rich, red gore. Claim¬ ing wool and selling shoddy will not get you anywhere and excuses long and gaudy will not make the matter square. Once you ' ve fooled a human being, you have earned an ebon mark, and a hun¬ dred, that mark seeing, will avoid you as a shark. Let no bilking schemes enchant you, put temptation on the ice; you can sting me once I grant you, but you cannot sting we twice. And the dealer who is wiser than a wise old setting hen IS THE HONEST AD¬ VERTISER WHO WOULD HAVE YOU CALL AGAIN. We consider the printed message, the cold type contact between YOU and US. one of the most important features of our business. It seeks to mir¬ ror’to you WITHOUT EXAGGERATION some of the things you see for yourself on a visit to this store. We want our advertising to be news always, interesting news if possible, hut above all TRUTHFUL NEWS, that seeks to tell you the advantage of trading at WILSON’S, We have tried to make our advertising form the creditable habit of stick¬ ing to facts. Perhaps our precision of speech makes our offering seem feeble “on paper” compared to others, but we much prefer your continued confidence to any temporary gain; and the ever-increasing list of WIL¬ SON ' S customers who have “come again” convinces us that, after all.

Those articles which I feci will not give satisfaction because of inferiority of materials or workmanship, T will not handle at any price. The articles which I consider good enough to sell in my store, or the job of printing produced, must he good enough for my guarantee to give satisfaction.

Our whole aim in this, as in all our work, is to give the greatest attention to all the details, and produce printing that will be a credit to the institutions from which the publications are issued.
