Cheerful, Dependable, Popular but— To say that Kat” is all of rhese would be putting it mildly. Hut why shouldn't she be? She is always on the job whether it is serving on a committee or singing in the choir, and is a member of the Honor Roll. We gather from these facts that she can keep a mean be- tween two extremes. She can socialize to her heart’s content without being accused of being lightheaded and she can study without being a bookworm. Kat will leave a place that will be hard to fill, when she departs from Cary High with her diploma under her arm. Ertry one is her friend and she is a friend to all.” Kenneth Dwight Eatman “Dwight” Cary, North Carolina Clay Society; Vice President Junior Class. Slow, Reliable, Friendly thus— Dwight's ouiet, unassuming manner has won him a host of friends. We do not know what Dwight is plan- ning to do, but we arc sure he w ill succeed in whatever he attempts. A’of afraid of work, but doesn't like it much.”

In these three years she has been with us she has not only proved to be the “Beauty Queen” but a diligent and industrious worker and player. Wc are expecting her to be a great success in the future. Most fair of face. Most winsome in her grace. Edna Earle Truitt “Edna” Cary, North Carolina Academic Lowell Society; Critic Society '27; Dramatic Club '28; Glee Club '‘27-28. Flippant, Fickle, Pleasure-seeking but— Edna is one on whom you may depend. She loves to dance and wc fear the school stage will look rather empty at lunch next year without Ivina, for this has been her favorite resort for the last four years. She likes to have a good time, but in some way she always suc- ceeds in passing her work. We predict a brilliant future for her. If you feci like flying, try it; But look for a soft place to light. Ella Hazel Tyson “Hazel” Cary, North Carolina Academic Twenty-one

tmmmm Class History UR present Senior Class started its nocturnal watch with a hand of forty-five. It was understood that the night would be divided into four watches. We realized the importance of having competent guidance, as we knew that many hardships would be encountered. With this in mind we held a con- ference and selected Ruby Hester as our leader. Our heaven was beautifully illuminated by an evening star. Miss Claire Nichols, our faculty adviser. At the first of our watch the universe was darkened by the angry looking clouds of Algebra and Latin. After some persistent effort they glided from our view. In the distance we saw the moon rising as moons eventually will, in the form of social activities, especially society receptions. The first watch rapidly came to a close with the thrilling days of Commencement in the form of numerous stars. “One part accomplished and all’s well” was the report of our leader. When our leader called us together at the beginning of the second watch, we found that some of our former members were missing and others had entered the watch. Our faithful colleague. Ruby Hester, was again chosen for the master watchman. Cx sar was one of the few constellations that cast its shadow during this watch. Even the shadow cast by Csesar could not blot out our light from the social gaieties. Our same evening star was now high in the heavens to lead us safely to our third watch. “Midnight and all’s well.” Even though we were discouraged by the darkness of the night, our master watchman, Marie Murray, cited to us the coming dawn or graduation. We noticed that our evening star. Miss Nichols, had faded from our view and Mr. E. N. Meckins, our morning star, threw his luminous light over the watchmen. A comet was observed in the heavens which proved to be the Junior-Senior Re- ception. This disturbance in the elements was followed by another unusual phenomenon in the form of a shooting star as the picnic at Lake Myra. We began to sense the approach of our fourth watch when we held the arch for the triumphant march of those who had completed this one. At the beginning of the fourth watch we realized that this would be our last together. As the master watchman of the last watch must be a person capable of holding an honorable position we readily chose Paul Tillman. Our morning star. Mr. Raper, was now high in the heavens pointing to us the rules for making the signal, Our Chsiif, showing to the other watchers that we had successfully com- pleted all of our watches. Depressed by the extreme darkness that precedes dawn—our Senior Essay— we searched the eastern sky for the rosy signs of the dawn of a new day. which was to be heralded by our Commencement. The first rosy streaks appeared in the form of banquets and receptions. Then came the burst of dawn and our march through the triumphant arch. Oh, the sad elation of the end of our watch together and the beginning of a new watch with others and among different scenes. Hut always our spirits will be with those who were faithful in our nocturnal watch. Frances Sorrem., Historian Twenty-three
