As the century grows older, we grow older, and as we grow older we become able to accomplish things. We present before you the firstfruit of our labors. There is nothing new under the sun. We have tried to disprove this age-old statement, but after we have finished this, our first production, we have a feeling that that maxim still holds true-the inevitableness of it. Our book is finished, and many have helped us to make it a reality. We sincerely thank Mr. E. F. Dardine, of the Strand, and Mr. R. D. Craver, of the Broadway, for giving us a chance to finance the SNIPS AND CUTS of 'Twentyg and also the merchants of Charlotte for their liberal ads. ,We hope that our under-classmen will receive as hearty a support, when they become Seniors, as we have received from them.

What foolery lurks latent in the breast of 'very sensible people. JOHN has sense, altho he hides it in two ways-first, by never saying any- thing unless he winds up with something foolish, second, by emitting his knowl- edge so slowly. In Geometry, it takes him about half an hour to say what he is thinking about, and we begin to think he is just killing time to keep from show- ing his ignorance. But when we hear what he was struggling to say, we are amazed, we wonder who told him. Since he can always unlock the intricate, he must have the master key. JAMES RAMSEY ALEXANDER Age, 175 Height, 5 ft.

Only a boy, with h is wild, strange ways, With his idle hours, or his busy days, With his queer renzarlfs, and his odd replies- Sometimes foolish, and sometimes wise. It's a good thing his name is JIM instead of Vim, because he never seems to be in the slightest hurry, or even greatly moved over anything. He arrives at school at the eleventh hour, to avoid having the girls ask for charms. Bor- rowed charms? No, they are candy charms. But JIM has got some charac- teristics worth asking for. He doesn't jump at conclusions, which is reasoning ability. He has the capacity to work, to do things required of him, and not go to sleep on the job. ig air 'VW' NAOMI ALEXANDER Age, 165 Height, 5 ft., 5 ins., Weight, 125. 1916-'17 f8Al 1917-'18 f9AJ 1918-'19 fl0AJ-Alexander Graham Literary Society. 1919-'20 f11BJ--Alexander Graham Literary Societyg Editor-in-Chief of SNIPS AND Cursg Supervisor Alexander Graham Literary Society, 1920, Man- ager of Class Basket-Ball, Athletic As- sociation. Undismayed by the conflict around her, Uizdistracied by the sights she may see, She demands not that the things with- out her Yield love, amzlscmenf, and sympathy. There is no silliness or sentimentality about NAOMI. Classmates and teachers exult in her intellectual strength and dexterity. Her mind is so full of imagery that she might have been perpetually a poet: yet there is something so prac- tically prosaic and pedagogical about her that she may everlastingly be a teacher. This logical head and fertile imagination give her extraordinary advantage in arguing. She even surpasses the Vil- lage Teacher -never is she vanquished. Truly, during NAOMI'S age, woman's place in the scheme of things will be set- tled to the disgruntlement of mortal man. M HELEN ARMFIELD ANDERSON Age, 17g Height, 5 ft., 514 ins.g Weight, 9795. 1916-'17 CSCD 1917-'18 f9CJ 1918-'19 CIOBJ-Bill Davis Literary Society, Assistant Supervisor, 19193 Girls' High School Clubg Marshal, 1919- '20, 1919-'20 f1lBJ-Treasurer of Senior Classg Literary Editor of Tattlefrg John Charles McNeill Literary Society, Super- visor, 1920, Girls' High School Club, Chairman Social Service Committeeg Choral Club, Athletic Association. As ymrc and sweet, her fair brow seemed E'te'rna.I as the skyg And like the bfrook's low song, her voice, A sound which could not die. HELEN was voted the sweetest girl in our Class, and I do not think this good quality is lacking in her face, do you? She possesses a voice like a nightingale and a disposition like an angel. Her loyalty to Charlotte High School, and her willingness to serve in any way, has endeared her to us all. Having met her, she is your friend for life. . .. Ji ,.,..

Ufhence is thy learning? Hath thy toil O'er' books eovzszlrned the midnight oil? I was reading the other day that, whenever you find a pupil in school who is always ready and anxious to answer a stiff question, that girl or boy will be great some day. Here is one. When- ever a difficult question is asked, or a knotty problem is to be solved, WILLIAM- SON jumps all over to do it. He hangs out of his seat, and covers half the aisle. His' eyes snap, his mouth snaps, his fingers snap, in fact, his whole body snaps. Sometimes his eyes in their antics form a-a-winkg WIGGS is invariably called on.

My dear, my native soil! For 'whom my warmest Il iSll to lzcfrzrvn is sent! Long may thy hardy sons of rustic toil H0 blest with health, and rest, and sweet content. One beautiful spring morning, seven years ago, a breezy wind wafted to our shores a bright little brown-eyed, curly- headed maid, a bonnie lassie --of Aber- deen, Scotland-GRACIE BROWN. Do you not feel a thrill in her conversation? Raising herself up on her tiptoes, clasp- ing her hands together, she holds us spellbound with her dancing brown eyes and mischievous smile. r MARY LOUISE CARR Age, 16, Height, 5 ft., llfg ins., Weight, 93. 1916-'17 f8BJ 1917-'18 C9Dj 1918-'19 QIOBJ-Girls' High School Clubg Athletic Association. 1919-'20 fl1BJ-Girls' High School Club, Choral Club, Athletic Association, Alexander Graham Literary Society. The rising bluslzes, which her check 0'ersprcad, fire opening roses: zn. the lfLly's bed. :Xa W-LLLU' Here you find, revealed, a rare type of a girl, and such a one as people like to come in contact with. She is small and dainty, and presents to the eye a pleasing picture, which may be verified by the one above. MARY LOUISE is a girl who stands by her teachers, and always strives to do her best for them in her studies, and with the artistic ability which she possesses we expect to see her attain great things. ANNIE ELIZABETH CHAMBERLAIN Age, 175 Height, 5 ft., 1 in., Weight, 100. 1916-'17 f8DJ 1917-'18 f9BJ 1918-'19 f10CJ 1919-'20 QUAD-Girls' High School Clubg Alexander Graham Literary So- ciety. A joyous lzearf that will carry her dancing down the years. .An Here comes our ANNIE, a wee lassie- dainty and demure. She has a bit of blue sky for her eyes, and the song of spring is always in her heart. We won- der what real things lie back of her dreamy eyes. Our little ANNIE will face the future with heart and hand equally eager to be of some service to those with whom she comes in contact. 1 I I i 1 .I HATTIE RUTH COLLINS Age, 175 Height, 5 ft., 6 ins.g Weight, 110. 1916-'17 CSEJ 1917-'18 CQDJ 1918-'19 QIOBJ-Bill Davis Literary Society. 1919-'20 f11BJ-Alexander Graham Literary Society. 'Z-l maiden calm, serene, and shy- Forcrer with a book hard by. .. HATTIE RUTH is a type of girl who is never fully appreciated until she is known intimately. But once her friend- ship is obtained, it is never lost, for she is a most loyal comrade. She has a trait which most of us so much need-per- sistency. She has never learned the meaning of the word failure, it only means to her that perhaps she hasn't done her best. BI.-XRY LEE DAv1s Age, 173 Height, 5 ft., 5 ins., VVeight, 120. 1916-'17-Sardis High School, N. C. 1917-'18-Sardis High School, N. C. 1918-'19 1919-'20 C11.-XJ-Alexander Graham Literary Society. Deternzinizzfz'on pre'puf'cs its own Mug to success. QL. IIARY LEE does not go to school just to say that she has been thru High School, but goes that she might gain the advantages offered her. She has been with us but a year. ln this time we have found her a strong character, a faithful friend, and a typical student. Her aim at present is the foreign field, and we will not be surprised to hear of her in later years, laboring in India. VVe predict for her a successful future, and the best wishes of our Senior Class will go with her.

My strevzgflz 'is as the sfrevzgth of ten. Q? We all like a person who tends to his own business. That's DOC.'S keynote in basket-ball. His business is guarding. People often ask Who is that blonde boy? We answer: The one, strong as an ox, who looks like Hercules, and plays steady and sure, but when the ball comes his way puts forth a burst of speed that's remarkable? If that's the person you are talking about, it's DOC. DEARMONR' AE JENNIE SUE DEARMON Age, 185 Height, 5 ft. 815 ins., Weight, 127. 1916-'17 181511-Girls' High School Clubg Basket-Ball Squad. 1917-'18 f9DJ-Social Committee Girls' High School Club, Basket-Ball Squad. 1918-'19 i10BJ-Social Committee Girls' High School Club, Bill Davis Literary Society. 1919-'20 f11BJ-President of Girls' High School Club, John Charles McNeill Literary Society, Varsity Basket-Ball. Within her tender eye The lzeaven of April, with its changing light. JENNIE SUE is one of those people you just like instinctively-without ever knowing quite why. Her big gray eyes fairly radiate kindliness, and after you have been with her for five minutes you count her friends-at Class feels fidant and philosopher, pensable to said to be heart, and as one of your very best least, that's how the Senior about her. By turns a con- adviser, a veritable guide, and friend, she is indis- our happiness. Sympathy is the key that unlocks every JENNIE SUE has that to an unusual degree. l i 4 4 . -A 1.,.

The great business of study is to form a mind adapted and adequate to all times and all occasions. N DOT is one of the most studious mem- bers of our Class. She believes in hav- ing a good time, also throwing her whole soul into work and play. DOT is very smart, especially in Algebra, and has a record in this old High School to be proud of-as she is usually having a whole week holiday while most of the rest of us are struggling with Exams. FLORENCE CHISHOLM DUDLEY Age, 175 Height, 5 ft., 6 ins.g Weight, 135. 1916-'17-Hermanville High School, Miss. 1917-'18-Hermanville High School, Miss. 1918-'19 f10Al-Alexander Graham Literary Society. 1919-'20 f11BD-Alexander Graham Literary Society, Basket-Ball. Unto him that smifeflz thee on the one cheek, offer also flee other. - Have you ever talked with FLORENCE about her pets? She transforms them from the animal world to the human, and you listen as if she were conversing about your best friends. If she tells you of some sad mishap that befell them, you feel very sorrowful indeed. Talk to her some time, and see for yourself. FLORENCE has a nature that isn't seen much in this world. People can pick on her, and she won't retaliate, she doesn't act like a martyr, but smiles. HENRY DAVIS DULs Age, 17, Height, 5 ft., 7 ins.g Weight, 115. 1916-'17 QSAJ 1917-'18 f9AJ 1918-'19 CIOAJ-President of Junior Classy President Alexander Graham Literary Society, Delta Club, Trian- gular Debateg Chief Marshal. 1919-'20 f11Bl-Business Manager of SNIPS AND CUTS, Business Manager of The Tattlerg Class Oratorg Treasurer Alexander Graham Literary Societyg Pres. Delta Clubg Librarian, Glee Club, Triangular Debateg Athletic Association. Tho he be small of stature, His is the power to command KL thou- sand giants. V Talk about school spirit! HENRY is certainly Johnny-on-the-spot when it comes to unadulterated, honest-to-good- ness school spirit. He is always ready to help out his school or his pals, no matter how little time he may have, nor how much work he may have on his hands, of which he has had a-plenty for the last year or so. HENRY is quiet, and never says much, but when he does start to talk we all prick up our ears, for we know he is going to say something worth while. We wish all success to you, HENRY, the Class of 'Twenty will never forget what you have done for it. As a debater, student, classmate, and a leader, your efforts have added much to the glory of old C. H.

By sports like these are all his cares bcgu,ilcd. ROGER, better known as ROG, is little we grant, but only in stature. Hels right there with the goods when it comes to his lessons, for he never fails to answer. And we wonder how he does so much, for football-that's his middle name! He is one of the best little backs Char- lotte High has ever known. Then, too, one might search the school over with- out finding another with the disposition ROGER possesses. His popularity testi- fies to this. E. li i Q-I I l i P IBBI .

She's the kind of per- son a grouch hates, because she's al- ways in a good humor, and taking things philosophically-just as they come. She's an artist, too, some of her posters de- serve notice. , i BLANCHE GLUCK Age, 17, Height, 5 ft., 5M5 ins.g Weight, 125. 1916-'17-Garrett Heights School, Bal- t'more, Md. 1917-'18 19135 1918-'19 HOC?-Girls' High School Club. 1919-'20 111135-Girls' High School Club, Alexander Graham Literary So- ciety, Choral Club, Athletic Association. Still 1vufc'1's rznyi deep. SWE? Altho BLANCHE has been in our school three years, most of us are still waiting for an introduction. BLANCHE is so quiet that few of us really know what a valuable Senior she is, and the only way to find out is to follow her some day from Class to Class, and hear her recite, or get a peep at the test papers which are handed back to her, the marks of which anyone should be proud.

Start fright, aim right, and keep peg- ging away. Who would have thought that the lit- tle Freshman, SELMA, would grow into such a tall and stately Senior. Not a Senior by word, but a Senior by deeds. When anything is to be done, SELMA doesn't sit on the fence and watch the proceedings, she gets in the foremost of the crowd, and takes a firm hand. If there is canvassing to be carried on, or tickets to be sold, get SELMA to do it, for she is a shark at it. 1918-'19 QIOAJ-Alexander Graham Literary Society, Club.

Yet she isn't like that proverbial old stone, because she was awarded a medal for a reading, was chosen to rep- resent High School in debating, roots at the athletic contests, presides behind the punch bowl at parties-which of course is the most popular place. RUBY ought to wiggle her finger at that bothersome stone, and say, Goody, goody!

I love quiet solitude, and such socicfy As is quzef, nice, and good. ROBERT is a quiet boy, who always looks as if he is thinking very hard. But ROBERT will fool you if you don't watch out, for he isn't as quiet as one might think. No one enjoys fun in a quiet way better than he, and it's no unusual sight to see his face wreathed in smiles when sOmething's going on among the boys. P. C.

C. isn't as much of a bookworm as he would have us think, as you will find out if you spy him in 11B at recess, usually running around the room from some indignant classmate, after he has played some trick on him. P. C.'s an O. K. little chap, and there is only one thing We have against him, viz.: that he won't wear his long trousers to school. MARGARET SENORA HOOVER Age, 153 Height, 55 ft.g Weight, 115.

She can always be relied upon as a friend. 1916-'17 CSCJ 1917-'18 f9CJ 1918-'19 UOBJ 1919-'20 f11AJ-Member of Athletic Association.

We wonder which one he will take as an example-the Scotch historian, or the eminent train robber. BLAKE is not in sympathy with books or studying. Neither do We be- lieve that he enjoys going to school, be- cause he goes one day, and he might stay home the next-it depends entirely upon the inclination of his mind. But BLAKE makes up in athletics for his shortcomings in other things.

Anything that one might write about her would naturally center around that dimple at the corner of her mouth, and fortunate- ly her disposition matches it.

She has been a member of the Girls' High School Club all during her High School career-and what office has she not held in that? How could we have done without her? SARA never gets ruffled over anything, and she is ever and under all circumstances the same.

He hadn't been with us very long before we knew he was a jolly good fellow. He is musical in more ways than one-judging from reports we hear from the Glee Club, and from his move- ments on the ballroom floor. As an actor, POWELL made his debut in the presentation of The Varsity Coach. Altho against his wishes, we have made a real Tarheel out of him.

She is pretty to walk with, And 'witty to talk with, And pleasant, too, to tlrink on. When the girls of our Class wish to do anything, and someone is needed to engineer the job, they go right straight to MARGARET, for she is just the girl among the Seniors who can do such thingsg and she always does what you ask her to, always has time to do just one more thing to help the school or her friends. There is hardly a person in Charlotte High School that does not love MARGARET, so popular is this chum of ours, and instead of JENKINS, her middle name should have been the most attrac- tive, for we find the word attractive written on all MARGARET,S actions as well as on her looks.

Beauty itself, doth of itself persuade The eyes of men, without an 01'ator. MARGUERITE is good nature personified, always wearing a smile, and ready for fun. She is never too busy to lend a sympathetic ear to everybody's troubles, and her pretty face, and sweet, unselfish disposition will win her friends wherever she goes. Since MARGUERITE is inter- ested in fun, frolic, and dress, along with many other things t?J, we have a fair idea of what her future will be.

'Tis 'worth my while to. play, indeed. She grins and laughs and plays the whole livelong day. If you have ever been in the classroom with BENNIE, you are aware of the fact that she does not pay much attention to the subject under discussiong oh, certainly not, her own affairs are too pressing to waste time on useless things, as history and such. She has the accomplishment of giggling down pat, and shows it off on all occa- sions.

VANNOY.', But PETE'S all right, espe- cially when it comes to being Editor-in- Chief of the world's famous paper, The Tattler. We do not know where he got his vocabulary, but big words are just as natural to PETE, at times, as his sense of humor. In conversing with him, we find ourselves continually swayed by a feeling of mirth one minute, and of awe the next. But it all comes so naturally, we scarcely think to appreciate it until it is all over.

Sometimes some of us sit around like bumps on a log, while CLEMMIE figures brilliantly. It has been remarked that CLEMMIE,S friends are fortunate indeed, because her apt aid is at their disposal. We found that nowhere we could find a verse that suited CLEMMIE except in Proverbs.

This is the guy that made them. But instead of trying for the Harvard eleven, he is going to be a preacher. By this, you know that ANDY is a boy who has convictions of his own, tho he does hide them under a cloak of foolishness.

'tThe bright brown eye, the melting blue- We cannot choose between The twof, If it were possible to have some kind of instrument to indicate the variations in one's make-up from day to day, we would find that it would move neither up nor down for LOUISE. Each day her dress is Hspick and span, each day the same smile is on her face, each day her work is surely done, and each day even her voice is ever the same. All of this is due, we think, to a certain amount of constancy and evenness of temper which LOUISE possesses, and which we hope she may ever retain.

He is the very embodiment of it. Not only does he look the part of a business man, but he acts it.

By this I do not mean that it is stiff and formal-not a bit of it.

LELAND is not to advertise the fact that he's here, but that is no sign that he is not around, and with the goods, too. If you want to find someone whom you can trust, you can count upon LELAND. The truest friends are some- times the quietest, and this can be ap- plied to LELAND. LELAND is a boy to whom things do not come so easily, but he is persistent, and this characteristic will be of value to him thru life.

O, mischief! thou art swift To enter in the thoughts of desperate men! RUBY is well named, for she certainly is a jewel. Tho she rarely studies, she always makes good marks-some brain she's got inside of that head! Oh, those eyes! RUBY just can't control them. One eye will invariably close, leaving the other wide open. But we think she's a mighty fine girl, in spite of the fact that she loves to vamp. She's thevery spice of life in our Class.

CA Let me today do sometlzing that shall take A little sadness from the world's vast storey And may I be so favored as to 'make Of joy's too seanty sum, a little more. We find ourselves refreshed by the presence of cheerful peopleg even so with NELLIE. She is one of our quiet, medi- tative classmates, always ready with a helping hand, giving us a bright merry smile and cheery word. She positively refuses to allow us to become discour- aged, and we feel so rested when we look into her deep brown, dreamy eyes. We are thankful for a share of her school- day Joy. ii- U Eli, I , ,5,g,,fQ HELEN FRANCES Toon Age, 175 Height, 5 ft., 3 ins., Weight, 108. 1916-'17 CSFJ 1917-'18 l9EJ 1918-119 QIOAJ 1919-'20 t11AJ-Alexander Graham Literary Society.

HELEN is a quiet girl, whom you hard- ly know is in the room until something funny happensg then you are greeted by her merry laughter. HELEN reminds us of a foreign beauty, with her lovely dark eyes and black hair. She has many friends, despite her quietness, for there is something about her that just seems to draw you to her. She is very studious, having made an enviable record all dur- ing her four years of high school life. -11' 'A - -- --- --txt'-l J am - ---:ilr---'--T1 --' A-Y ---- v- r- - --A1n::f-f- -Q-'mf' V --- - J SUPHIA Us1Low1'rz Age, 17, Height, 4 ft., 105 ins., Weight, 97. 1916-'17 QSGJ 1917-'18 QQEJ 1918-'19 QIOCJ 1919-'20 QUAD-John Charles McNeill Literary Society. A frm' woman-nzodesf, simple, and sweet. SOPHIA is gifted with an art which few of us have, and that is the art of studying. She is a remarkably studious girl, always worrying about her lessons, for fear she will not get one hundred per cent. on them. Altho she is quiet, she is full of fun. We are all depend- ing upon SOPHIA to uphold the standard of the Class of 'Twenty. HELEN LOUISE WALLACE Age, 16, Height, 5 ft., 4911 ins., Weight, 115. 1916-'17-Central High School, Wash- ington, D.

She's sweet, she's pretty, and just so nice! And better still she's the most in- teresting person to talk to, with her soft little voice, and her information as re- gards almost any subject, especially English and French. She has only been with us during our last year, and we can't see for the world how we ever get along without her. It makes us wonder how Washington, D. C., managed when its SUNSHINE came to Charlotte, be- cause her sunny disposition has captured us all. Well, Washington, we wouldn't give HELEN back to you for anything!

Q9 One can just tell, to look at LUZON, with her laughing eyes, and bright, happy face, that she is the very per- sonification of good nature. In this age, when it seems to be the custom for everyone to look out for Number One, it is indeed refreshing to find one who has time to stop and be willingly help- ful to another. Such an one is LUZON, and this characteristic, coupled with her happy disposition, has won for her many a friend.

The glittering arch to the purple hills, Where it faded away from sightg But the mystic gold to our childish eyes Was fadeless and pure and bright. But that shining goal we could never reach- 'Twas always so far away, And the shadows came on the distant hills And the rainbow tints turned gray. But we never despaired, and we never could doubt, And our hopes of wealth ran high, For that spot of gold we could always see When the rainbow spanned the sky. The fancies of childhood have long since passed, And gone are the dreams of old, But still at the rainbow's end there lies The fabled pot of gold- The goal that we strive for, but may not win, As bitterly we confess- The aim of ambition's high desires And a measure of brief success. '-'-T 'we U Cyp? But perhaps when the storms of life are done, At the foot of some rainbow's fire We may find the treasure we sought in vain- p The goal of our hearts' desire- ' Far better than aught we had ever dreamed, When life was an endless quest, In the crown of life and the end of strife, l And all that the heart holds best. -Service 1 1 W W wh wh- V F W W F wiv-ED VEND N E V-Gramm - Q p-2623 WQEJOOU: FE-win A ,IH D .

I' N T 2 ry 11 X li' CLASS HISTORY A, OWARDS the last half of our seventh year in school, our teachers talked much to us about our approaching high school life and its various phases-the greater amount of responsibility that would C31 0 evolve upon us, and hinted about the necessity for much closer application when we left grammar scchool. Now, previously we had, one and all, formed many pleasant illusions about the vague and far-off time when we should have attained the eighth grade, and instantly become members of that superior and much respected Qby under-class- menj body known as the High School Crowd. These constant remarks of our teachers didn't exactly help the illusions along, in fact, they served to awaken in us secret misgivings concerning our ability to keep up. And on the first day of school, in the fall of 1916, with the din of gongs in our bewildered ears, and the hurried passing to and fro of per- sons who actually walked as if they knew where they were going, and what they were going for, we stood still-with our eyes and mouths open, so to speak-and felt all pride vanish, the illusions took wings and flew-- until they were mere rosy specks on a dark horizon of work, work, work. Thus began our High School days. After we decided on the course to take, had our schedule arranged, were settled, and had become a part of things-no longer onlookers-of course, everything was interesting. Then, by the means of questions which tripped each other up at the tips of our tongues, we immediately began absorbing knowledge at a rapid rate. Time in the eighth and ninth grades passed quickly, and before we knew it we were cheerful Juniors. The position of Senior, viewed now from so close a range, appeared even more desirable than ever, and we were already in the third year! Diplomas became possible things-grad- uation and all its glory a tangible idea of some satisfying certainty. In the fall of 1919, when we were back at High School, this time as Seniors, we came with our share of the proverbial pomp and boasted dignity of that Class of all times. We had become Seniors, and is it not their universal privilege to enjoy, along with their other privileges, their own conceit? And here I feel that it would be the wish of my fellow- classmates that I mention some of the privileges which we have enjoyed as Seniors. Since I am not allotted the space to give too lengthy enumera- tions, I will make mention of one as a fair example. We have been per- mitted to enjoy the recesses indoors, if we preferred, to stand or sit idly around eating our lunch, and on cold days watching from the windows those outside less fortunate than ourselves. Oh, how mightily we cherished this our esteemed privilege, and how savagely we guarded it! Our last year has been very full. Besides the extra round of social functions, which occupied some time, the school paper, The Tattler, which had suffered an eclipse for several years, was revived, and a publication issued each week, under the efficient management of Mr. Vannoy McCall. The sustained effort of the whole Class was put forth to make our annual, SNIPS AND CUTS, a worthy representation of the largest Class ever grad- uated from Charlotte High School. Miss Naomi Alexander, whom we selected as Editor-in-Chief, did some hard work herself on the annual, besides inspiring others to do their part. Then came the important event of moving into the new High School. This was what we had been looking forward to all year, and there was great excitement when the day came for the actual change. The order of things in the new school was changed considerably, but we found out that it was much for the better, and a very pleasant arrangement. It is only natural that, after eleven years of almost daily associa- tion with each other, the parting should have a touch of sadness. We feel that, of those eleven years, not a moment has been wasted which has helped to prepare us for those things in life that we are just commencing- the bigger things, as we grow older, that will put to the test every prac- tical lesson we have learned and every ideal that has been instilled in us at Charlotte High School. --C.. J., Class Historicm, '20 .,, V ,I CDKWOR W ,,f,l 3 G E, the members of the Class of Nineteen-Twenty of the Charlotte High School, being of a sound and disposing mind, and in the full if consciousness that we are about to depart this thigh schoolb life, do hereby cause to be drawn up and made this, our last will and .ffffig testament, rendering all such previous ones null and void that are not in full concordance with this, our last, in order to bestow upon our successors to this station in the high school their just and rightful inheri- tance. Our precious and zealously guarded Senior Privilege fthat of com- ing into the Senior rooms at recessl, do we with great reluctance will and bequeath to the members of the Junior Class, on the one condition that they be used with the utmost discretion, as was characteristic of us, said Seniors. In like manner, upon our esteemed lower classmen, namely: the Juniors, do we hereby bestow, with all rights attached thereto and per- taining to said bequests, to wit, the following: the hitherto unknown quan- tity of yardsticks, rulers, stray chalk-boxes, dictionary, maps, odd pencils, erasers, pens, etc., all inkwells, broken and otherwise, in which to immerse their scholastic quills when recording acquired knowledge for the benefit of the teachers, the ability of the Senior girls to raise money on certain occasions, and last, all personal school furniture and possessions not afore- mentioned that we may have used in our upward journey thru Charlotte High School. To our teachers, we leave our sincerest affection, and our most grateful remembrances of what they have done for us in the past-how they have stood by us when we were most in need of guidance and wise counsel of a faithful friend thru thick and thing how they have patiently foreborne us in our many faults and trespasses, given us a word of sympathy and encouragement when we stumbled in our studies, and commended us when we had done our work well. May you carry with you thru life our gratitude, which we, in this, our Class Will, with the greatest love and respect have bestowed upon you. Done this twenty-third day of March, 1920. J.

We feel the breath of midnight. Sleep deepens. 4 Over mountain and valley appear the stars. Summoned by loving tradition, after twenty years, a wierd band assemble in the halls of old Charlotte High School. Why are these forms so different from other bands who have their trysting-place here? The faculty years ago attempted to classify us by our peculiaritiesg to account for usg to find our cause in the condition of the age. Yet all in vain! Only one label suited us-N-o-i-s-e. We have tried these twenty years to deserve this label. Tonight each sprite brings a testimony. To our vision is pictured a Class rich in patriotism, statesmanship, intellect, philanthropy. Our name goes out thru the whole world, .overawing ignorance, oppression, and miserly selfishness. Do you see that group of four so earnestly 'engaged in conversation? Their faces shine with the glory of service. They are Ruby Hamilton and John Abernathy, foreign mission- aries, Helen Anderson, who has charge of a school for mountain girlsg and Andrew Milstead, an Episcopal rector. Look to your right-Judge Duls. We always knew Henry had a three-decker brain. And the member of Congress over there, that is Naomi. Does it amuse you? Well it need not, for she is certainly heard in the House. Be it tragic or be it glad. Be it comic or be it sad, they can surely take the part, for where in the United States can we find such actresses as Hoover, Porter, Tarrant, and Stewart? That man with the grave, mathematic expression, that's Roger. He has written a book. No longer will boys and girls worry over angles and spheres. He has discovered a painless cure for mathematical stupidity. Oswald House is now administering portions to the Class of 1940. We'll give three cheers for Abe, James, and Blake--Look at their medals. My country -- of thee. Let Powell with that voice that soothes dull care, wake the melodies. We proclaim them conquering heroes. That white head over there-not gray-it's Doc.'s. We all know of this famous surgeon, who, with the aid of his capable nurses, Dorothy Dixon, Sarah Leak, and Martha Jones, has performed operations nothing short of marvelous. A wireless from New York: Business demands entire attention. Have in my employ Messrs. Silverstein, Fox, Misses Chamberlain, Kendall, Rippy. All send greetings. BENJ. SCHWARTZ But where is our Ichabod. Now I see. He has married his fair Katrina, and is foremost in keeping Charlotte the best town in the State. Come hither, O shape of HP. C. Can't come? Too bad, but we understand. The Mayor of Charlotte could have no time to spare on sentimentalities. g Jennie Gallant, Mary Lee Davis, Florence Dudley, Rebekah Orders, Marguerite McDonald, Gracie Brown, Louise Fricker. I'll call your names softly, but you should not be ashamed. You remember the great Woodrow Wilson, well,.he was once a teacher. Perhaps, when Margaret Martin and Luzon Wiley complete their suffrage campaign, one of you may be president. And do not worry for fear the long-hour schoolday will go into effect, as long as those stately matrons, who once answered to the names, McCall, Johnson, and Smith are dominating forces in Charlotte Parent Teacher Association. Hear the mellow wedding bells Golden bells What a world of happiness their harmony foretells! Now you needn't all look at Louise Moretz, for you are not supposed to know anything except as I tell you, and besides artists like Mary Louise Carr and Lucile Garrison are supposed to have all the sentiment. Why here comes such a weary looking faun! Dear me! He faints! It is Williamson Bradford, as sure as I'm alive. Been Wandering for twenty years! Quick Francis! Kathleen! Administer first aid. We'll cure the wanderlust. Now, Olga, how could you be so quiet in all this excitement? You have not changed a mite. What means all those trunks? O, yes, drum- mer's samples. Selma, with all her salesmanship dignity! But we cannot have the story of her latest success. The clock strikes the hour, andwe must not be found here. One thing before we part. Vannoy is absent. Suppose we do not tell him of this meeting, for he would certainly have an editorial in to- morrow's Observer, Then others would know our time and place. May we always be youthful, laughing, and gay Till the last dear companion drops smiling away. -M. G. S. Class Prophetess, '20 S-.i...,-., .--if A T Handsomest .......,,. .....,.

CAVJ UR football season at the first few practices did not look very promising, f5! but after Coach Crayton got behind the fellows it showed a vast deal of lim fl 5 'Z I improvement. The team was lighter than any team it ran up against. The average weight of the team was about one hundred forty-two pounds. Being fast, and full of pep and fight, made up for its lack of weight, and gave a big cheer for any team. The team went thru the season, until the Winston game, in Charlotte, Saturday, November 22, without being scored upon. At this time they had their first touchdown scored against them. But this didn't make any difference to the team, except to increase the fighting spirit, and take the game by the score of 7 to 6. The following Tuesday the boys had to journey to Greensboro where, worn out by the trip and the game with the Winston boys, they suffered their one and only defeat of the season. This game ended a successful season, with a record of having won six games, tied two, and lost one. -A.

TOMMY CLARKSON-Left Tackle Tommy is not very large, and is light: but that doesn't matter at all with him. He is just like a flash, and is all over the field at once. He doesn't say much, preferring to let his actions speak for him. He won't tackle above the shoes, but he stops them with a jolt, and whomsoever Tommy hits doesn't hurry to get up. He is all nerve, and is going to use some of this next year. Well: we're with you, Tommy. BYRD CRAYTON-Left End Tootie doesn't say much, but he does things. Not very many times did teams run a play around Tootie's end. and get off with it. He is also a bearcat at catching forward passes. Ile is not slow. either, as some teams found out when chasing him. XX'ell, Tootie is all right, as the boys showed by electing him captain of next year's team. WI RT DeARMO N-Fullback Doc plays football! When he hits the line, some- thing gives wayg and when you want a few yards gained, why he'll be sure to get it for you. He runs interference like an old veteran, and seldom fails to get a man. On the defense, be backs up the line, and is right where he is needed every time. He doesn't know what it means to quitg and the team will have to travel some to get some- one to fill his place. RO GER D UVAL-Halfback This little ninety-eight pound fellow, when it comes to football, is just like a cat on his feet, and, as for out- running him, it can't be done. He is a hard and clean tackler, and doesn't believe in letting a man get away. Owing to his lack of weight, he didn't make a regularg but he played in almost all of the games. He played anywhere in the backfield with equal success, and caused many a person to denounce the ill fortune which blew them on to chase him. For his size, he can't be excelled. BLAKE H U NTER fCaptainj-Quarterback Blake, the brainest little quarterback in the State, uses that knot on his neck to good advantage, and doesn't know what it means to get rattled. Turn him loose in a broken field, and it takes a whole team to catch him. He handles forward passes in classy style, plays safety, and doesn't know what it means to let a man get by. He seldom fails to run a kick back to where it started from. l l i l i A 4 114.214 WILLARD KEERANS-Halfback Willard hasn't had any experience, or much weight, but he makes up for these in pep and the old snappy spirit. He won't let anyone thru him. They can hurt himg but the more it hurts, the more he grins, and the harder he scraps. VVith this old spirit, and the experience he has learned, it is going to take a mighty good man to keep him out next year. WILLIAM LASLIE-Left Guard Teck, outside of football, likes a soft, easy place: but in football the harder the job the better he likes it. He seems to like stopping a fellow, and he wouldn't get out of your way for anything. Most of the plays directed at Teck bounce backward withlout success. If you want a goal kicked. just call on Teck g he'll do the job. The team won't soon forget that quality of his. Remember l.Yinston-Salem? GEO RGE LOWE-Lineman Georgie tlocsn't look very large or very troublesome, but he is a small package of trouble for anyone. Size doesn't make any difference to him: he takes 'em all alike. Because of lack of experience, he diiln't make regular: but next year be is going to make someone hop to keep ahead of him, DAN MALLORY-Center Blondie plays the old center position as no one else could play it. He is fast on his feet, and is not very light. He can't be kept out. He goes thru his man, and tackles the quarterback before he passes the ball a few times in every game just to keep up the habit. VVhen he tackles a man, it rarely fails to bring forth a grunt. He is a steady passer, and a rock on defense. The team will certainly be lucky to have him back next year. V ANDREW MILSTEAD-Left Halfback Andy claims he is going to be a preacher. VVell, if he preaches as well as he plays football, Watch out, Sinners! He is as fast as a streak, and if he ever gets outside the opposing end, the safety man is in for trouble. He pulls down forward passes easily, and on defense he does some wicked tackling, as his opponents know, for they have had la dose of his medicine.

A - llis hobby was end runs, as he showed in the Baird game.

It is absolutely hopeless. When you want ll hole made, just call on him, he'll open it up. He is a Freshie this year, and the team next year will have one useful man. Beware, opponents: Safety First! ABE NEIMAN-Right End Rolfe is a long-drawn-out affair, but he gets there. ,lust sling a forward pass anywhere around him, , and he will he right under it. lle tackles harfl, and ean't 1 be inoved by interference. The team will surely miss him - next year. ' fi JOHN PURSER-Right Tackle Pursey is another example of a long-rlrawn-out affair. and to look at him you wouldn't think he eoulcl stand much, But just try to get thru him, and you will 5 . fiurl to your sorrow and surprise. just as others, that you have undertaken an extra hard job. He tackles low and hzirrl on defenseg on the offense'-well, his man seems to , get in the way. He plays successfully anywhere on the team when necessary, besides handling the punting. ALLEN MOORE-Right Halfback ?l'Ll'XVOl'klIlg', line-smashing Tick, His line plung- ing and ability to gain his yards every timecalled upon, is the feature of his offensive work. Never was he thrown for a loss. On the defensive, his tackling is absolutely sure: and his secondary defense does much to strengthen a rather light line. He is one of the most dependable men on the eleven. 5- , '.........Aa......n4nu..ag,................a-...-.,..f.... i 1 f LW, 1 FOOTBALL SUMMARY Following is the summary and list of games: Charlotte Charlotte Charlotte Charlotte Charlotte Charlotte Charlotte Charlotte Charlotte O Bairds Prep School ....... ...l. 0 Monroe High School ....,.... ..... 19 Horner's Military School ............ 6 Winston High School ........, ..... 6 Concord High School .......,. ..... 7 Winston High School .......... .....

AN'S age has been heretoforeg but now woman's age is coming in-- not only in politics, but in Athletics. The girls of Charlotte High School have tried for many years to put forth a team and do battle with all oncomers. This is not the first year that we have put out a girls' team, but it is the first year that they have overcome the stumbling-blocks always in their path-that is, they have played games out of town. The year hasn't had very successful scores, but we have overcome so many obstacles in other ways that we do not mind losing a few games. Instead of being chagrined, we are elated, because we think that from the beginning made this year Charlotte High School will ever afterward take prominent part in Girls' Athletics. We had spirited times at the tugs-of-war between the classes. The bleachers Ca stone wallj were lined with throngs of jubilant girls to view the con- tests. Each team went under the yoke to the Juniorsg they were victorious in every game. We had no regular coach, but Mr. Elliot, out of the kind- ness of his heart, refereed our games, and did the best he could for us. We want to end by thanking the boys for the hearty support that they gave us in all our combats with outside teams. The basket-ball pep in Charlotte High School was better this year than ever before in the history of the school. While honor and praise is being given to our boys in all their sports, no one ever thinks of the girls. They, too, have made a record for themselves in basket-ball. Much credit is due Coach Elliot for his winning team. In the Girls' Basket-Ball, more class games were played than ever before. In a series of games among these teams, the Juniors proved themselves champions. --R. D., '21 SCHEDULE OF GAMES Charlotte High School ................ Y. W. C.

The Annual goes to press this year, as usual, too early for us to make any definite statements about baseball, but that since Abe Neiman is captain and John .

'M 'f THE ALEXANDER GRAHAM LITERARY SOCIETY N 1904, Mr. Harding, who was then principal of the High School, realized the need of a Literary Society in the school. Therefore, he organized a Society, allowing only the Seniors to become mem- bers. The Society was started with a membership of forty-nine. M Until the fall of 1909, the Society had no name, but when it was reorganized that fall it was called the Alexander Graham, in honor of KP' 'T l fi El, l li if-- rxf if 99' .Oo r' fl tb 42, Mr. Alexander Graham, whose name we are proud to bear on account of the untiring interest he has taken in our Charlotte Schools, and also on account of the wonderful work he has done. The object of the Society was to fit the students for their life's work, by intellectual, moral, and social improvement, and by promoting a spirit of subjection to law and order. A Soon our Society grew so large that another Society was formed, known as the Bill Davis Literary Society, now the John Charles McNeill Literary Society. This year has been one of the most successful and most profitable in the history of the Society, and this is due almost entirely to the fact that the members have taken part so readily when called upon. Even if some of us cannot debate and recite as well as others, we can at least say we tried, which is all that can be asked. Every year our work has progressed, and for this year we are proud to say that two of our members are to represent our School in the Triangular Debate. The good work which has been started by the Alexander Graham Literary Society has reached such a momentum that it can only go forward. -S. B. D., '21 s,:- -'f' N Sfxv- .

Two names were suggested- Sidney Lanier and John Charles McNeill. The latter was selected because, being a North Carolinian, We Were more interested in '-' :' 'Ml him. Then, too, We have a local interest in him, since he lived in Charlotte for quite a While, and contributed some of his: best Writings to The Charlotte Obse1'fvefr. Our meetings are held the third Friday in every month. While the purpose of the Society is to carry out a literary program, we enjoy many social features. Our programs have consisted of debates, recitations, declamations, and music. We Were fortunate to have among our number many gifted musicians, and they have been especially obliging in furnish- ing music of the best type for us. We hope by means of this Society to fit ourselves for the varied duties of life, to cultivate a correct mode of speaking, and to qualify ourselves by practice to express our opinion in public in a correct manner. It is the desire of the members of the Society that the future mem- bers Will enjoy the same pleasures and be benefited in the Way We have, and that the Society may ever stand for its high principle. -M.

T 1 ' crzsurcr U HE Delta Club, an organization for the boys of the three schools of Charlotte- us' Charlotte High School, Baird's Preparatory School, and Charlotte University Q7 'TE School-was organized about five years ago, its chief purpose being to create, maintain, and extend thruout the schools high standards of Christian char- acter. The 1919-1920 meetings of the Club, under the able leadership of L, Mr. C. W. Tillett, Jr., have been filled with special interest to the boys. These meetings have taken place in the form of open discussions between the boys upon whatever subjects the leader, in his thorough understanding of boys, should see fit to bring up. ' Two Bible Classes were taught this year-the High School group under Mr. Francis Clarkson, and the Baird's and Charlotte University School group under Mr. Reynolds Cuthbertson. As much interest was taken in the Bible study as in the discussions, and we feel confident that no boy who attended the meetings regularly could leave the Delta Club this year without having materially benefited himself. In our deep ponderings over the events of the past year we cannot fail to remem- ber those few delightful hours which we spent with the members of the Girls' High School Club, at those never-to-be-forgotten social events. We leave the Delta Club this year with the satisfied feeling that, for every ounce of energy we put into it, we drew forth a pound of mental power which will be a lifelong benefit to us. So we leave the Club with fond recollections of the past, and with joyous hopes for its future. -H. D. D., '20 ' '- - J,,,2':f'--.N ING! 1-'T HE purpose of the Girls' High School Club is to create, maintain, fri' extend, and practice thruout the Charlotte High School high ideals of Christian character, to bring the student to a personal knowl- 5 edge of Jesus Christ, to lead her to be loyal to the Church of TF Christ, and to give her opportunities for Christian service. Look- ing back over this year, we feel that we have come a long way toward our goal. Lectures and discussions have focused our minds on the more serious subjects of life, and made us resolve to do better and to try harder in all our undertakings. Debates, solos, and the like have accustomed us to performing in public, and helped abolish our stage fright. The Christmas entertainment given by the Girls' High School Club brought joy to the hearts of many poor children, who might otherwise have had no pleasure at that glad season. The Varsity Coach proved a pronounced success, and helped not a little in securing money for sending delegates to Montreat, beautifying our club room, and giving for charitable purposes. College day, despite the bad weather, was well attended, and we believe gave the girls a clear idea of college life and its many advantages. The program furnished entertainment as well as food for thought. The girls from Agnes Scott presented a little Mother Goose play, which gave us a view of activities at their college, and made us all agree that Agnes Scott is . ,,,. 4, ig-'J' A A F---W ., ..,..,..,..,,gl... 43. THE GIRLS' HIGH SCHOOL CLUB ,.-A., v are , . .J-IW lm, certainly a fine place. Several High School girls gave an interesting show, of one act, which represented college graduates, each hurling her most detested book into the flame of a blazing barrel. This inspiring scene heightened our ambitions to attend college, even if it were for the sole pleasure of burning oar detested books when we graduate. We went home determined that some time we should learn by actual experience what college life really is. So much for our accomplishments, of which all of us may well be proud! Now, for the social side. The Delta Club Party, given on Hallowe'-en night, our return entertainment on Valentine night, Mothers' Day, and the Faculty Tea-ah! those were delightful occasions, not soon to be for- gotten. Camp Latta, last summer, witnessed many a joyful vacation scene. The ole swimmin' hole especially was overworked. Now sum- mer is quickly coming again, and we are looking forward to even a better time. In view of all these things, let us give you some good, sound, part- ing advice: Join and support, Now and forever, Our Club and its work! -L. D.

Henry Duls, whose voice has an Oratorical ring, and who is a veritable comeback in a rejoinder, helped his team to victory two successive years. Selma Gordon, the only girl debater who was brave enough to stem the torrent of a critical audience, won her first laurels as a debater in this contest. Stewart Quern, altho a native Irish boy, proved on this Occasion that he had command of a fluent and convincing English vocabulary. Gelder Robinson, composed, and sure of himself, helped vanquish Raleigh, and we look forward to his being one of the main props in next year's triangle. We cannot foresee what the outcome will be at Chapel Hill, but-Here's to their success!

CURIOUS CHARLIE: Then what tree does the doughnut grow on? PATROL LEADER: The Pantree Cpantryb. THE TRUTH Pnltitfinu As a steamer was leaving the harbor of Athens, a well-dressed young passenger approached the captain, and pointing to the distant hills, inquired: What is that white stuff on the hills, captain? That is snow, replied the captain. Well, remarked the lady, I thought so myself, but a gentleman has just told me it was Greece. CAN YOU BLAME HIM? An intelligent Frenchman was studying the English language. When I discovered that I was quick I was fast, said heg that if I was tied I was fast, and if I spent too freely I was fast, I was discouraged! But when I came across the sentence, The first one won one one-pound box of candy, I was tempted to give up trying to learn English. EASY WORK You college men seem to take life pretty easy. Yes, even when we graduate we do it by degrees. THE SAME BUT DIFFERENT Are you in pain, My Little Man? asked the kind old gentleman. No, answered the boyg the pain's in me. MOVING LETTERS FIRST PATER: My boy's letters from college always send me to the dictionary. SECOND PATER: That s nothing! My boy's always send me to the bank. IN A HOLE It was washing day, and John had been kept from school to look after the baby. Mother sent them into the garden to play, but it was not long before cries disturbed her John, what is the matter with Baby, now? she inquired from her washtub I don't know what to do with him, Mother, replied John. He's dug a' hole and wants to bring it into the house. ANOTHER SLAP AT SLAPPY What's weighing on your mind, Cholly? Do you think my mind is a pair of scales? Well, nog if you want to be precise about it-scales are evenly balanced. WHEN THE BOYS CAME HOME Are they seasoned troops? They ought to be. They were first mustered in by their officers, and then peppered by the enemy. BEATING FATHER TO IT What did your little ones say when you told them there is no Santa Claus? They asked me if I was just finding it out. AN UP-TO-DATE PUPIL TEACHER: Name the five zones. PUPIL: Temperate, intemperate, war, postal, and o. NO FEAR I A boy in a Seacoast town asked a sailor if he ever rode a bicycle. Certainly not, answered the sailor. Do you think I'd trust myself on some- thing that had its rudder in the front? WHY NOT? How old is your baby brother? asked little Tommy of a playmate. One year old, replied Johnny. Huh! exclaimed Tommy. I've got a dog a year old, and he can walk twice as well as that kid can. Well, he ought to, replied Johnny, he's got twice as many legs. , CONSIDERATE BOY How's your boy Josh getting along with his studies? Pleasantly, replied Farmer Corntassel. He don t bother 'em none. IN THE FUTURE JACK: In what course do you expect your boy to graduate? ToM: Why, in course of time, I suppose. LOGICAL . There was an epidemic of chicken pox in the village, but fortunately little Johnny had kept free from it. One morning, however, he came rushing downstairs excitedly. Oh, Daddy! he shouted, I'm sure I've got chicken pox. I've just found a feather in the bed! A SELL The school visitor was asking the Class a few questions. Now,'how do bees dispose of their honey? he inquired. They cell it, announced the clever boy of the Class. PAUSE TEACHER: Don't you know that punctuation means that you must pause? WILLIE: Course I do. An auto driver punctuated his tire in front of our house Sunday, and he paused for half an hour. IT DEPENDS FARMER: Do you want a job diggin' potatoes? TIRED TIM: Yes, provided it's diggin' 'em out of gravy. ABSENT Ernest, said the teacher, tell what you know about -the Mongolian race. I wasn't there, explained Ernest, hastilyg I went to the football game. h hhnctifllntnur-' wr : HE KNEW SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHER: Where do all little boys go to who do not put their pennies in the collection box? PUPIL: Please, M'mg to the pictures. OF COURSE HUSBAND: Yes, My Dear, that's a man-o'-war. p WIFE: How splendid! And what is that little one just in front? HUSBAND: Oh, that's only a tug! WIFE: Oh, yes, of course-tug-of-war! I've heard of 'eml THE EXACT SPOT A train leaves New York, ' said the teacher, traveling forty miles an hour. It is followed thirty minutes later by a train traveling eighty miles an hour. At what point will the second train run into the first? The class seemed at a loss: that is, all except Willie Green, who was standing in the aisle vigorously wagging his hand. Well, Willie? ' said the teacher. At the hind end of the rear car, Ma'am, answered Willie. SPRINGING IT The teacher was giving the Class a natural history lecture on Australia. There is one animal, she said, none of you have mentioned. It does not stand up on its legs all the time, it does not walk like other animals, but takes funny little skips. What is it? And the Class yelled with one voice: Charlie Chaplin. SAFETY FIRST MOTHER: Would you like to come and rock the baby for a bit, Tommy? TOMMY: Rather! but I haven't got a rock! DIFFERENT TEACHER: Now, Robert, can you tell me how a bat hangs with his head down- ward? BOBBY: Please, Miss: do you mean a chimney bat or an acrobat? MISPLACED A small boy sat on a curbstone weeping bitterly. What's the matter, Son? l asked a kind-hearted passer-by. Have you lost your mother? ' ' No, wailed the boy, she ain't lost: but I gotta wait for her, and I didn't want to be parked here. HE KNEW TEACHER: Johnny, can you tell me what a hypocrite is? JOHNNY: Yes, Ma'am. It's a boy what comes to school with a smile on his face. ' FATHERIS PART John, I simply cannot stand these algebra exercises you bring in, said the teacher. They are horrible: just full of mistakes. I shall have to write your father about them. Papa will be awfully angry, said Johnny. I suppose he will, but it is my duty to write. Better not, insisted Johnny. Father does all my algebra for me. WHAT FIGURES SHOW Sammy never over-exerted in the classroom. His mother was delighted when he came home one noon with the announcement, I got 100 this morning. That's lovely.
