It is customary for the school to publish an annual, but here- , tofore it has borne a different name and has I 5 z w been published in a spirit of competition with i s i 15 .. . l lf ffgl the preceding annuals. Several conditions, which it is needless to go into here, have brought the editors into a realization of the extreme seriousness of expending large sums of money on a high school annual, merely to produce a more elaborate affair than has been produced in other years. VVith this realization fresh in mind they have thrown all thoughts of competition to one side, cut all expend- itures as low as possible, and at the same time have produced a book which presents, they hope, the school and its activities in a durable, artistic, and literary form. These changes were considered of sufficient importance to warrant changing the name to the ilfcvkimilazzrgcff, which in itself retlects the spirit in which this annual is published. if-F' kk og '5:1: 2 Q 932 Magi 19 THE MECKLE BURGER 235 '-Q-'IW MQ lwedliioantfpiion -iliertha Mae llonnellv is a true friend uf the students of the Charlotte High 5' , ' . . .

At first. we were inclined to look for aid from other sources, but as the years passed by we came to know and love our Faculty. We began to feel their sympathy with all our student interests and the willingness and eagerness with which they always helped us. W'e have met the teachers face to face, seen their intelligence and ability, and have found inspiration in all our tasks. It was South who said, Ile that governs well leads the blind: but he that teaches gives him eyesf' Qur teachers are skillful not only in the sciences which they teach, but also in the method of teaching. They have broken no promises, served no private ends, gained no title, but in the years to come may they see an abundant harvest of the good seed they have sown. Possessing great tact and earnestness, they have two chief requisites of the successful Faculty. Our teachers have patiently counselled and directed us through our most difficult years at school. They set forth examples of lives devoted to a noble purpose, allowing nothing to prevent the fulfillment of their duties. VVe appreciate their kindly interest in our welfare and leave with sincere regrets. W'e thank every member of the Faculty for the sacrifices made for us and for the cheerfulness shown at all times. We have spent four important years of our lives under their care and have received the training, which forms a large part of the equipment for life, under their faithful guidance. Vkle have passed through this course with a deep conviction that each department is presided over by one worthy to represent it. VVe cannot repay our teachers for all they have done, but we trust that our lives will be centers of greater influence for having been under their wise and patient guidance. Wle truly think of our Faculty as ........ . such better souls Communing in an equal fellowship, As clear in intellect, as brightly clear In every high conception, and as warm In all emotions . . lending Their inspiration unto all who feel The glow of their benignity and dwell Blessed in their steady sunshine. -BON NIE Mu: BEAM.

THE NECKLENBUBGEH -1-ees THE FACULTY It was decided by a popular vote of the Faculty that the pictures of the faculty members would not appear in this volume of The MvrkIv1zInn'gvr. For that reason the following articles appear. ln these we have made an attempt to portray our instructors as we see them: not only that, but we want to show the progress and merits of each department. THE OFFICE All things must have a beginning, even so with this article. The natural starting point for a discussion of the school and its activities is the office. Here new plans for the betterment of our system are constantly being formulated. Miss Frances Beatty, Dr. Garringer's secretary, is never too busy to stop alld listen to our tales of Woe and graciously give us an Admit Card. Miss Beatty herself was a member of the student body last year, but her present position does not rob her of sympathy. This completes Dr. Elmer H. Garringer's second year with us, During these two years he has put forth every effort to make our school one of the best. The results of the system now in operation, the key-note of which is co-operation, prove its merit. Dr. Garringer is right with us in our athletics and his loyalty and school spirit is an inspiration to the whole student body. COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT ln this department students are trained for the business world. Mrs. Myrtle Asbury is at the head of this course and instructs the students in typ-ewriting and shorthand. VVe can count on Mrs. Asbury and her students to help us put anything across when it comes to typewriting. The work of this department is one of the big things in our school. The students are tirm believers in the maxim that practice makes perfect. As we pass down the hall we can hear the steady, musical click, click of their typewriters and sometimes we wonder if they are not all musicians. A course in retail salesmanship has been installed this year. Although this subject is new, we feel sure that under Miss Carolyn Rita Holt's able supervision it will be very successful. LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT Herein lies our strength. The work of this department is in the hands of thirteen capable instructors: The English course is directed by Miss Jessie Henderson, Miss Minnie Downs, Mrs. E. H. Garringer, Miss Margaret Newland, Miss Lucille Little, and Miss Ethel Rea: in the mighty subject of Latin we are taught by Miss Ellie P. Grier, Miss Anna Mae Donnan, and Miss Georgia Neal: Miss Katherine Blett Smith and Miss Connie Horne have charge of the French studentsg Mrs. Elizabeth Hoyle Rucker and Mrs. Helen Laughlin have charge of the Spanish students. We regard English as a major in our Senior year and we appreciate the untiring efforts of Miss Jessie Henderson and Miss Downs i11 helping us in our attempts to conquer this subject. As for Junior English-go to it, Juniors, your trials now were ours last year, and we came out all right and so can you, with Mrs. ,Garringer and Miss Jessie to direct you. You will always End them ready and willing to help you over the rough places. Miss Little 59612.52 Civ L il. - THE MECKLENBUHGEH .25 5 '--Us and Miss Newland are new faculty members this year, but, although Miss Rea has not been with us all of the year, we won't call her new, for she was with us last year and we're mighty glad to have her back. Miss Little is a regular bureau of information in school sports. From her you can hear the result of past games and predictions on those in the near future. Miss Newland and Miss Smith are such close friends, we can't even afford Um separate them on paper, so next comes Miss Smith and her French. NVe feel the same spirit of good fellowship when we enter her class room that we felt toward Mr. Alexander, who left us to take up his duties as principal of the Junior High. Miss Horne gave up her history class at the end of the first semester to take charge of some classes in French. Miss Ilorne has a way of making us forget our worries and troubles by her words and smiles of encouragement. Mfrs. Rucker is known to all students as one to go to for cool. sound advice and a word of encouragement. Mrs. Laughlin, we want to welcome you as a member of our faculty. Mrs. Laughlin has Spanish classes in both the Alexander Graham and the Central High. Miss Grier teaches Latin in all the classes. If you'll go into her room and look at the various little models of Roman artillery and even Roman soldiers and senators, you will decide that Latin is not dead, at least not the way Miss Grier teaches it. Miss Donnan and Miss Neal are new and valuable additions as Latin teachers and we are glad to welcome them into our school. As yet we have only one class in German. This is taught by Mr. James T. Penny. However, Mr. Penny says his real calling is in the work of the Science llepartment. MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT When we say math, somehow we just naturally think of Miss Fannie Moore, Miss Charlee Hutchison, Miss Bertha Donnelly, Miss Sara Kelly, Miss Virginia Reid, Miss Lila McGehee, and Miss Jessie Rankin. When we think of Miss Fannie we think of parallelograms, circles, squares-just everything that pertains to geometry and trigonometry. The thought of Miss Reid brings the same things to our minds. Alas! NYC realize that there is no royal road to geometry but Miss Fannie and Miss Reid have made the one we must follow very pleasant. Miss Charlee seems to be fond of Freshmen. Maybe it is because at that tender age she is able to instill politeness and good manners into their brains as well as Algebra and general math. Miss Bertha has Algebra classes strictly. During a fifty minute period in Miss I'iertha's room you get all the Algebra that's good for you and maybe some of the athletic nevvs. VVhen it comes to minstrels, plays, carnivals-anything to help us along, Miss liertlia is right there. Miss Sarah has classes in Advanced Algebra and general math too. She is a great favorite with everybody, but especially the girls. We wish we could all have a disposition like Miss Sarah's. Miss McGehee instructs the Sophomore and Freshman classes in Algebra and general math, If you have an idea about something and want to talk it over with someone, go to Miss McGehee. She is never too busy to listen and help you all she can. Now Miss Rankin says her real calling lies in the civic held, but she can explain civics and math to Freshmen with equal ability. POLITICAL SCIENCE Miss Connie Fore and Miss Oma Clare Lafferty have full charge of the history course this year. Miss Lafferty has two classes in European history, while Miss Fore has classes in Ancient, English, and American history. Sometimes we wish that it were true that dead mera tell no tales but these teachers conduct their classes in a way that makes this study very 9 iso 93.96202 --- THE Mrcmrmsuacrr i interesting. As for civics-this course has gained more prominence this year than heretofore and has made splendid progress. The instructors in this branch of the work are Miss Jessie Rankin, Miss Oma Clare Lafferty and Mr. Jack Knox. To all these we say, Welcome, VVC hope you have enjoyed your hrst year with us to such a degree that you will remain. SCIENCE DEPARTMENT This department is divided into four sub-departments: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and General Science. Mr. James T. Penny and Mr. Robert Garth are the instructors in Biology. The progress of this work is greatly hindered because of the lack of equipment and room. We hope that this condition will be relieved in the near future. I asked Mr. Penny for a personal remark about his work and he said, I am deeply impressed with the intelligence of my pupils. Please don't be so sarcastic, Mr. Penny. Mr. Garth has several classes in Physics as well as Biology. For him we can certainly say, And still they gazed: and still the wonder grew, that one small head could carry all he knew. Mr. Charles Cunningham has complete charge of the Chemistry department. This is Mr. Cunningham's first year with us and we now feel that he is an indispensable member of the faculty. General science is taught by Mr. C. D. Kirkpatrick and Mr. Jack H. Knox. Coach Kirkpatrick gave all his time to the football team last fall, but when the season was over we had to give him a full schedule of classes to keep him with us. He has coached the girls basket ball team during the basket ball season. We think he has turned out a mighty snappy team, too. Mr, Knox came to us from Citadel and has proven himself to be a very valuable science instructor. Wle hope you will decide to stay with us, Mr. Knox, DEPARTMENT OF ARTS Miss Mary Armond Nash is head of the department of Fine Arts. The exhibits of the students in this department prove its success. At present the Freshman Classes are designing doorway and tiling patterns, the Sophomores are drawing up plans for cottagesg theluniors ere working on designs for China, the Seniors are making original designs for textile materials. The next work to be done by the Senior art students will be art work to represent each stage in literature. In the department of Domestic Art and Science the pupils are directed by Miss Florence L. Thomas and Miss Margaret Blakeney. The course in home. economics includes a study of textiles, costume designing and decorating, and a thorough study of foods and cookery. There is also a course in first aid and nursing. We are pleased indeed to see the wonderful progress made in this department. Mr. Smith-Parsons, the head of the Manual Arts Department, is teaching his pupils Mechanical Drawing so they will be able to carry their carpentry work from the original idea to the comp-leted work. Last, but not least-no, not by any means--the cafeteria. Miss Margaret Rogers has charge of the cafeteria and handles her work there most efficiently. She never fails to give us good well cooked food, and since we have two lunch periods the crowded conditions have been relieved. The cafeteria is fully equipped with modern equipment and pays for itself, and since no pront is allowed, the prices are very reasonable. The dining hall not only serves for a lunchroom but a place for class entertainments as well. 10 WD M 'L THE MECKLENBUHGEH 35 5 EEIQIDRS pfw if .wr ,N W Q iff Mx! WSH!

Nay, make the world rate us high, and thus prove Our work is not in vain. NVe have labored VVith high ambitions, for those great ideals of lifeg And through it all we've been happy, in this school Qf learning and art.

O, how happy WVe feel to receive such princely honors! But there lies, between us and the goals Of our ambition, much to be overcome, Greater trials and more hardships to be endured Than has ever been our lot in school daysg Dear classmates, throughout our parting l've tried Never to shed a tearg but this occasion forces me, And leaves me with throbbing heart and troubled spirits. Let's wipe our eyes, and look before us, classmates: Here we shall be forgotten, as others have been. VVhen we meet and converse with some, who back to Qur minds recall the memories of schooldays, tell them Our teachers taught us, here in High School, To tread the ways of thrift and industry, , And sounding all the depths and shoals of honor Found the way for us, by our school life, to rise to higher planesg Though a sure and safe road, yet many fail.

The Btdjflllllillg of the lI'f11'. Early in September of the year 1919, a call was issued for recruits to take part in the war for knowledge. One certain morning of the aforesaid month many lusty looking volunteers were gathered together at the barracks, Old Charlotte High School. They ranked as Fresh- men, and as new soldiers often do, felt very much out of place among the numerous veterans. At last, after rigid training by the general-Fred B. McCall, they were well started on the First years' campaign. ' The first battle to be fought was with Algebra. The recruits had not developed into disciplined soldiers, as yet, but victory came at last after their persistent efforts and under the steady leadership of Miss Charlee Hutchison Following this wonderful victory numerous skirmishes occured with 1-Iistory, Latin, English, and Arithmetic, but under the brilliant command of A. M. Elliott, Misses Connie Horne, Agnes Chalmers, Maude McKinnon, and Cornie Fore, the brave young soldiers emerged victorious. In November the greatest battle of that year took place. The sturdy youngsters, for such they were, fought against their foe with ever growing courage and determination. The powerful exams were routed, but had to be met again and again during this war before they were entirely conquered. In March the ranks were divided and the greater part of the troops was stationed in the new barracks, Alexander Graham High, The general, Fred. B. McCall was taken with them, while A. M. Elliott took the generalship over those who were left behind. Steadily victory after victory crowned the youthful soldiers with glory. In May the majority of the army was granted a furlough for three months, and only those who had shirked duty were left to plod wearily on in the service. CHAPTER II. The .SQPCOIICI VUIII' of Iliur. Again in September of 1920 the troops were called back to their posts. This time, however, they bore the ranks of Sophomore, for they had fought so gallantly, had been so courageous and victorious that obviously they deserved promotion. They entered into battle anew, with greater courage and confidence in themselves. Jean Crowell, Wfillard Keerans, Sara Bell, and Vffayne Dudley were given charge of the different divisions. Another deadly foe, unexpectedly encountered, bore down upon the Hanks of the army. VVith undaunted courage the troops fearlessly faced the enemy., Biology. Mr. Jonathan Couch led the charge gallantly and an overwhelming victory resulted. Success lay in their path and further established their faithfulness to the cause. CI-IAPTER III. The Third Your of Cozzflirt. September, 1921, marked the beginning of the third year of this mighty contest. The troops, who were now Juniors, were given a new commander-in-chief, Dr. E. H. Garinger, who had succeeded the former Freddie McCall. Those promoted to the ranks of Captain, First and Second Lieutenants were Spencer Bell, Garrett Morehead, and VVayne Dudley. A mess-hall, cafeteria style, was added to Alexander Graham and as a recreation from work the soldiers were entertained with chapel programs every Tuesday and Thursday. 55 eral T ii iiiiciiir BURGER i,25-sieve Scouting parties led by Mrs. Rucker and Mr. Uhlman Alexander were sent out against Spanish and lfrench. They returned victorious but brought back reports of the many hard- ships suffered while on their expeditions. The most brilliant achievement of this war was the storming of the fortress of Geometry. The forces were encamped near the place for nine months and all the while the contiict raged. Finally, in May, Miss Fannie Moore and Mr. Alexander ordered their troops to a tinal charge. The fortress surrendered and the Juniors claimed the victory, though they came through with uniforms sadly frayed from the light. A deadly epidemic in the form of athletics swept through the various camps. Those who were almost fatally afflicted were Douglas Shiltz, Willarcl Keerans, Ed. VVilson, liilly Harvell, Elizabeth Gonzalez, and Alice Gibbon. The disease could not be checked and continued to rage throughout the next year. CHAPTER IV. The Close of the Uitll' The last year of hostilities began in September of 1922. The army took its place with a stronger lighting line, though many comrades had fallen by the wayside in the previous years fighting. Only the strongest remained to continue until the end. They entered the campaign with the lust of battle in their eyes. At their head tioated a golden bamier with 'iSemper l idelis printed thereon in white letters. ,lt was furled and unfurled in the breeze as the veterans bore it triumphantly onward. Upon the brow of each trooper was marked the word, Senior. . The tirst half of the year they were led by very competent officers, Lillian Johnson, Bob McMillan, and Charles Hebert, and enemy after enemy succumbed to their onslaughts. Their superiors boasted of their ability and courageg they were evidently the pride of the land and they well deserved the honor. The English sent forces against them commanded by Edmund Burke, John Milton, Thomas Gray, and Oliver Goldsmith. These men were notorious tighters, but the Seniors remained masters of the Iield. This year Athletics took such a strong hold that had it not been checked in time those already weakened by it would have been carried to Chapel Hill. The last half of this year VVillard Keerans, George Carmichael, and NYayne Dudley attained the position of officers. The Seniors were very conlident and proud of themselves, but they were soon to hit a wall that was not so easy to break through. The commander-in-chief issued questionaires to test the intellectual ability of the troops. They worked desperately for two days, and little did they think that this was only the beginning of a series of statistics, blanks, and other worries. These soldiers had not entered battle to give up in desperation and despair, so they gallantly and bravely put forth the noblest efforts to win. They were nearing the end: victory was almost in view. The way became easier and at last, they came to the foot of a mountain which had to be scaled. XVith colors Hying they made a tinal charge and dashed for the summit where the coveted banner floated. They gained the top, and with their hands on the Hag emblazoned with the word Diploma they gave a loud and lusty cheer for the victory of the class of '23.

Wfork without aim is energy wasted. Then we who are to build the most wonderful and marvelous structures-human lives-must bend our every effort toward the one definite aim, for we know that in this as in all things the end crowns the work. Now that we have reached the goal of youth's ambition, we stand upon the threshold of another and greater existence. Let me discuss for a few moments those points toward which we steer the ship of our future activities. NVhile looking for a suitable place in which to realize our ambitions, we could not find a better place in the whole country than our own dear city of Charlotte. IoIere in Charlotte we see an open lield of work wherein lies untold opportunities to aid in the development of the Southland, Charlotte, in the last year or two, has surpassed any other city in the South in its building and working plan. Everyone has something to do and the employment bureau has its hands full getting enough people to work. Charlotte's population is estimated at sixty thousand nowq the forecast of Charlotte's population is one hundred thousand by 1927. Charlotte is the center of the Carolinas and also the center of the South in cotton. Such a city is a worthy place in which to settle and realize our ambitions. This city will need men to carry on its business in the near future. Xlfhat better place could be found for the material of the future great 111011 than in our own Alexander Graham Iligh School. Merchants, lawyers, doctors, architects, real estate men, and other professional men will be needed to take the place of the men who are now building up the country, The Charlotte Irligh Schools have put out and will continue to put out men who will do credit to their school and city. Even now, as I look into the ranks of my fellow school mates, I can see them as Charlottes' future citizens. Boys with whom I once played and with whom I once went to school, I see as future great men of our country. Here I perceive the firm of NVhitlock X l.Valker, lawyers: here I see a corporation consisting of the great bankers of the city such as Ralph liullard, Robert Mitchell, and Milton Clapp. There I can discern through the veil of the future the name of an editor, Clyde Shuford, the editor of one of the country's leading papers, while on this side of life I can see a master of musical art, Spencer Bell, and a singer of great renown, Edward VVilson. I can foresee some of our greatest architects, for instance, I.. I.. Ilunter. Lamar Thomas and Jesse Dunn. Cp the stairway of the future I can also perceive one of the greatest merchants, J. H. Van Ness, and Gary Heeseman, one of the countrys' greatest manufacturing managers. On another side, I can see a great orator, Wiilliam Alexander, and the president of the Southern Public Utilities Co., Robert McMillan. Then, too, we see our statesman of international fame, John Yonan, on his way, a consul to his dear A.I'11lClIIH. I shall not attempt to prophesy the future of each and every boy of our class but as a whole I can see them leading in the commercial and professional world. The girls of today, too, have many points to which they can steer their ships. There are many islands of opportunity in the great sea of the business and professional worid, of the Church, of politics, and of the community life open to girls. In these positions for girls we are sure that the girls from the class of '23 will take leading parts. Can you not see Evelyn I-Iarris, a famous artist, copying some masterpiece in the great halls of Rome? In the professional world I foresee Mary Lois Irlenley, noted concert singer, with Ethel I'-Iolmes Graham as an accompanist. In far China I see Ethel Vaughan doing missionary work among the natives. D! r 5 u K if ,Steffi JW 'cl T ii MECKLENBUHGEH .25 The Charlotte Observer comes to my eyes with headlines reading thus: 'fWiIIiams for Mayor. Can you not perceive Mabel as a politician who will get any office she runs for l can discern in the future Alice Gibbon, an ideal lawyer's wife standing out in Work of community uplift and reform. Lillian Johnson, our esteemed class president, can continue her presidential career by taking charge of the Y. VV. C. A. Thus we see the girls as well as the boys occupying many high positions in life and we realize more than ever before what a wide field of opportunity presents itself to them. Let us keep in mind that to attain these high positions we must strive with every effort and put forth all our energy in the game of life. XXi'e must aim high and seek our places in the world with ambitions only reached by the eye and not by the hand. Let us follow the old adage and hitch our wagon to a star . lf we aim high and fall short, then we have gone a long distance, but if we do not aim high we cannot expect to attain a high position in life's problems. Every effort counts in our future activities and will help to mould us in the image of our ancestors. Let us hold forth the positions of great men as our goal and try to reach even higher than theyg twenty-six hundred years ago Aesop said, No matter how good you are, there is always some one better. . Take Babson, for instance, the greatest figure in the commercial world, who dictates the prices of our country's products. Each morning, one can see his dictations in the newspapers. Nlfanamaker, the greatest merchant of our country, was a great Sunday-school worker. Thus we can combine our commercial activities with our religious duties. X'X oodrow NVilson stands as the leading hgure in politics of our age and to what greater person could anyone look to as an ideal of their ambition. lle was a teacher, a professor, a lawyer, a governor, and a president, which position he reached after years of hard work. If we keep these great men in mind as an example and hold their position as our goal, I am sure my prophecy will not have been in vain. ll. .... , GN QM W-+ THE MECKLENBUHGEH L25 CLASS WILL XVe, the class of '23, realizing the certainty 1 FJ of graduation and being of a sound mind tnot-with-standing the efforts of our teachers for four years to destroy itj have drawn up the following will and testament: Item One: Wie bequeath our most valuable possession, namely that of upholding' the integrity and school spirit for which Old Charlotte Hi is famous, to our most esteemed undergraduates, the Juniors.

The supercilious upper classmen called us l7reshies, but this did not worry us for we realized, as perhaps no other class before us had realized, that these Supercilious upper classnien had once been called the same thing. Wie knew that if such as they had risen so high, there was nothing that could keep us down. XYith knowledge of the greatness destined us. and the realization that moth- eaten customs would keep us in obscurity, the whole class settled down under the tutelage of Miss Charlee lzlutchison, Miss Cornie Fore, and other instructoresses of the more or less exact sciences. These teachers of ours, not only inibued us with a knowledge of the three Rs but gave us niany needed lessens in self- control, to which inuch of our later greatness is due. So passed our Freshnian year unnoticed by those on the outside. Nevertheless, during this time we had risen steadily. The Sophomore year was heralded in with a change: for in place of Mr. Fred B. McCall, who had been present to discipline us, if such had been necessary, was Dr. E. ll. Garringer. Lfnder his leadership we entered anew regime, a new arrangement of periods, the formation of various clubs, in which every student was given the opportunity of developing' along the line in which he or she was niost interested. ln these clubs we, the Sophoniores, took hold with a lively vinig we were interested in everything pertaining to school life: Athletics, School Spirit and Pep were our by-wordsg we lived for the fanie of Charlotte High, Perhaps the world had not given us our rightful place as yet, but we had grown niuch in knowledge and favor and we knew that when we came back as juniors we must be recognized. XYhen we returned after the vacation of the suninier, we found ourselves the merry juniors, fained in song and story. Now our dreains began tc be ful- filled: new we began to show the world. XYho led in the approval of the Student Council? XYho led in furnishing' a library to put our school on the accredited list? At last we had come into our own. Wie tried to reach the heights of wisdoni the Seniors had attained and very nearly did it. 6-1 1 U , 625 W W S 19 lHE MECKLE BURGER 255 It would have been a perfect year, had it not been necessary to Separate us after the first semester. About forty-five or lifty of our class were sent to the new Central lligh. lt was sad, but our indomitable wills kept us up and we made the best of our niisfortune. XYe kept steadily on in the work we knew was ours. Now, in part our desires have been gratified. for next year we will be Seniors- will we not then bring to Charlotte lligh. XVe must press onward and upward-just one more mile-the height will be reached and the class of 'Z-1 will be at meinory. SV, fe OOO 65 me cw?

Asheville beat Charlotte and Asheville xvon the State Championship. Dick Kirkpatrick came to us at the beginning of school to coach our football team, and from the wonderful results he produced, we feel that we have the best high school coach in this section of the country. He is not only a coach but a member of our esteemed faculty. teaching Science and Math. N XVhen we speak of managers we feel that it is hard to beat flugh. Every game arranged dehnitely was played to schedule and no postponements or misunderstandings occurred, due to the managers ability. Willard Keerans, as a captain, is unexcelled. He kept up the spirit of the team at all times by his own clauntless spirit and untiring efforts. Wiillard, or Peter as he is called by his team mates, is the most popular boy in school. l'-lis wonderful personality, and the charming way he converses makes him sought out by many and admired by all. Much credit is also due to Mr. I. T. Penny, faculty director of athletics, who has helped so much in arranging schedules. Mr. Penny represented the Charlotte High School in the conferences for arranging the championship schedules and secured a good schedule for Char- lotte. His work as a general supervisor has been of great benefit to all our teams. 84 ima case riff- THE Mtciitt Burictii -35 H---et' OUR FOOTBALL SEASON The football season of 'ZZ was a fair success. The team as a whole functioned well and with the efforts of a good coach we were kept from the championship by only one team, Asheville. NYe started the season off with large one-sided scores and as the season wore on and our team whipped into shape, it defeated some of the best teams in the state.. Xllinston had a strong' team this year, but Charlotte showed her superiority by getting' the big end of the score at both the games played. A team representing the Carolina Freshmen were counted as one of our vanquished rivals despite the fact that three of our alumni were players on the op- posing team. Our hrst championship game with Statesville was very successful. but when Asheville came along she proved to have a nut for Charlotte to crack, so we gave our chances to Asheville and nothing' stopped her till after she won the state championship at Chapel Hill. A large amount of credit is due our two peppy cheer leaders, llroolce Todd and Alice Gibbon. Their efforts were not in vain, as anyone within a mile of school or the field will know. Good, peppy, snappy, rousing cheers were pulled off with such unity, value and skill that any college could get a good lesson from our stu- dents. It was an incident long' to be remembered, if you were lucky enough to be in the bleachers, when the sweatered team jogged out to the side lines. to be met with the bellowing rah of a thousand throats. After a minute of confusion the old familiar Ramble would roll out over the Held and sure enough we would see those Charlotte XVildcats lcnoclc that llull- dog off the mapf, S5 'sa em If , :Q EN M ETTER ALLI.

Height, 5 Feet, 7 Inches. Weight, 135 Pounds. Two years ago XVillard was not even a sub. Last year a better broken field runntr was hard to find. But this year, when he captained the team with such skill, a half back with more grit and fighting blood than Peter could not be found in any high school. He could get the right spirit and excellent team work from his team mates that are so essential to a cham- pionship team. HOXVARD NORRIS Age, 19. Height, 5 Feet, 11 Inches. Weight, 175 Pounds. Norris, our ever faithful, steady, line plunging fullback, is the envy of every high school in the state. If six yards are needed the quarterback never hesitates. Howdy is the man for the job and he always does it, and does it right. PAUL XNH ITLOCK Age, 17. Height, 5 Feet, 10 Inches. Vtfeight, 155 Pounds. This is Paul's second year to play at tackle and although many tried to take his position away from him he vanquished them all and played as fine a game as is seen anywhere. He is always full of pep and the right spirit is his middle name. DOUGLAS SCHILTZ Age, 19. Height, 5 Feet, 6 Inches. NYeight, 135 Pounds. Doug is the quickest, surest, nimblest and BEST quarterback in this section of the country. I-Ie may be small, but it is seldom that 135 pounds of such fighting football humanity can be stuffed into the skin of a man this size. This is his second year at quarter and his crisp signals, barked at his tired team mates always gave them renewed life. ED WILSON Age, 17. Height, 6 Feet, 2 Inches. Wfeight, 165 Pounds. Ed is a veteran at the football game, having been on the team two years. He plays fullback and quarterback with equal ability and that ability is of exceptional character. He proves baffling to his opponents for when he gets his hands on the ball they cannot guess whether it will be a pass, punt, end run or line plunge. JOE IOSEPHS Age, 16. Height, 5 Feet, 7 Inches. XVeight, 160 Pounds. It is very seldom that a sixteen year old boy can make a high school team and become as good as Ioe in one year. But here is a shining example of it. As a guard to stop line plunges Joe is hard to beat, even in championship circles. VERNON AUSBAND Age, 17. Height, 5 Feet 10 Inches. XVeight 133 Pounds. Vernon played end in hne style, and showed much improvement over his varsity playing last year. He was the lightest man on the team but with this handicap he was chosen to cap- tain next year's team. We wish you luck, old boy, go to it. SAM McNINCH Age, 17. Height, 5 Feet, 10 Inches. NVeight, 170 Pounds. NVhen we speak of tackles, Sam takes the lead. This is his second year to play next to the guard and his ability to lead off tackle plays was a valuable asset to the coach. HARRY SCHWARTZ ' Age, 16. Height, 5 Feet, 10 Inches. XNeight, 170 Pounds. Some people are endowed with an ability to teach, others to play baseball, but Harry is peer of all who have an ability to play football. It seems that center was built to tit I-larry because he fills all the requirements to perfection. There was even talk of him as captain of the all-state team, on which he was placed. V 87 Q GMC! ts---- Ht MECKLENBURGEH Q25 --rr-We OLIN NESBIT Age, 16. Height, 5 Feet, 11 Inches. NVeight, 145 Pounds. Olin, as a student, will never take extensive honors, but Olie as a half-back is another story. He sprang into prominence at the very first of the season and kept going until he won his letter with the rest. Ile is a line player and the kind of material which is sure to take the coach's eye. RALPH SMITH Age, 19. Height, 5 Feet, 9 Inches. Weight, 145 Pounds. Ralph is considered by many as one of the fastest ends they ever saw on a gridiron. They are not far wrong, and they based their conclusions after they saw him get under the longest punts, or catch the longest passes. ' ROBERT VVALKER Age, 17. Height, 5 Feet, 9 Inches. 'Weight 156 Pounds. Bob is one of our greatest helps in winning games. liesides being a No. 1 guard or tackle the plays bothl, he rarely misses getting the extra point with his educated toe. Few of his drop kicks go astray and fewer plays gain any ground when The Kidu is at the brunt of the attack. ANTONY EDDY Age, 19. Height, 5 Feet, 9 Inches. Wleiglit, 136 Pounds. Tony has been playing football, for and against, Charlotte for the last three years. He is a wonderful broken lield ground gainer and an ideal mate for his captain, always depend- able and full of sand to the last notch. The college who gets him is certainly one to reap the gain. JOE SANDERS Age, 17. Height, 6 Feet, 1 Inch. XfYeight, 210 Pounds. No, the 210 is not his telephone numberg it is his weight which is always impressed on the opposing tackle.. Joe came to us from Greensboro and we believe that what is Greensbortfs loss is our gain and a mighty big gain at that. Joe will be with us next year and if he has his way he will be at Chapel Hill when the championship game is played, JOHN BARRIER Age, 16. Height, 5 Feet, 4 Inches. NYeight, 135 Pounds. Drayhorse is a fine defensive end and knows how to drag down the forward passes that count for the most. He is only in his nrst year on the varsity, but next year some mighty hard work is going to have to be done to keep him from winning his star. He is not, however, as slow as his name might imply. .ll'a11ugc1'-HUGH PUCKETT Age, 17. Height, 5 Feet, 7 Inches, Vtleight, 153 Pounds. Hugh had line prospects to make the varsity this year but was unfortunate to break his collar bone, and, as you can't keep a good man down, he went right ahead and became manager. A fine job he did too, no games were canceled and everything went smoothly under his man- agement. S9 Stews af CHARLOTTE HIGH SCHOOL TRACK TEAM Last year Charlotte High's iirst track team followed out a successful year. VVe won the cup at the county meet, and took home the honors by a small margin in a dual meet with Shelby. This year we have a coach for the distance men, a coach for the dash men and an abundance of good material, so the prospects for the season are good. On March 9, eight men were sent to Durham and by their efforts brought home the sec- ond cup won by our school in two years. Thomas, Gallagher, and McMillan won the most points for Charlotte, getting twenty in all. ,This was nearly twice that of their nearest compe- titor, Chapel Hill, who came in with twelve points. The schedule for the rest of the year is as follows: March 30. A dual meet with Greensboro in Charlotte. April 13. The State meet in Chapel Hill. April 20. The county meet in Charlotte. May 5. A meet for all schools in the western part of the state, at Greensboro. A triangular meet of Shelby, Lincolnton and Charlotte is pending but no decision has been made yet. 89 QD 695335: 206125 , i m MECKLENBUHGEH .35 4 -HM-We We--I HE MECKLENBUHGEH .25 ies WHO'S WHO ON THE TRACK HENRY THOMAS Age, 18. Height, 5 Feet, 9 Inches. XVeight, 144. Henry is our crack dash man. doing the hundred yards in 10 2-5 seconds. He went to all the track meets and carried away all honors of his class. Henry expects to do some mighty big things this year. Go to it, Henry, we are right behinrl you. PHlLlP GALLAGHER Age, 13. Height, 5 Feet, 9 lnches. Wfeight, 135. Phillip is our hest distance man, running the mile in 4 minutes and 50 seconds. The secret ot his success is faithful training. Every day, he it raining or pleasant, one can see Philip stepping off his mile or two in fine style. ARTHUR DANTELS Age, 17. lleight, 6 Feet. NVe-ight, 140. lYheneyer Phillip runs the mile Arthur is sure to he right behind him. Arthur is a hard man to beat at either the mile or the half mile. He trains faithfully, has line endurance and a plentiful supply of genuine grit. DOUGLAS SCHTLTZ Age, 19. Height, 5 Feet, 6 lnches. Nleight, 135. Wrhen the high jumping or pole vaulting is mentioned, lJoug's name comes automatically, His legs are as steel springs, and when called into play clear any height with ease and grace. RALPH RULLARD Age, 17. Height, 6 Feet. lVeight, 156, Ralph is a line half mile mang his form is good, his wind excellent and plenty of fight to put him across the tape in the lead of the entire lield. Ralph is a husky young athlete and there is no telling how far up the ladder he may mount heforc old age overtakes him. CARL SELDEN Age, 17. Height, 5 Feet. 9 Inches. lVeight, 135. Carl is another of our fast half mile men. He knows how to set the pace and is on to all the ins and outs of the game. XVith the proper training he should go far. ROBERT MCBHLLAN Age, 17. Height, 5 Feet, 7 lnches. lleight, 143. Rohert, or liohhy Mac, as he is distinguished, is a middle distance man of the lirst class, He runs the quarter mile in tine time and clears a few hurdles if they happen to he in his path.

At the first of the year l3illy was a little off his game. but when the champion- ship games started he struck his former stride, and came out with fiying colors. He kept up the spirit of the team in nne shape and much of the team's success is due to its captain. HOXVARD Nt JRRIS Age, 19. Height, 5 feet, 11 inches. Vlleight, 175. Every team has its mainstay. l lowdy is certainly the one to whom this honor is rightfully given. He is a fine guard and his ability helped to keep down the opposing team's score. XVOR'1'l1 MORRIS Age, 17. Height, 5 feet, 8 inches. XVeight, 140. Many times Vyforth has been referred to as that bricktopped fighting guard. He came by this name because he never let up on his game and was at all times an excellent running mate for Norris. FRED W'ARE Age, 18. Height, 5 feet, 10 inches. 1Vc-right. 147. Fred is without an equal in the game anywhere. His long shots rarely went astray and he was the biggest factor for scoring on the team. GEURGE CARMICHAEL - Age, 16. Height, 6 feet, Z inches. NVeight, 1-12. Frisky is certainly there when it comes to getting the tip from the opposing center. He is still going good and we expect great things from him at Carolina. ANTHONY EDDY Age, 19. Height, 5 feet. 9 inches. Vyfeight, 136. Eddy seems to never know when to stop after playing star basket ball--for two years he comes back and does the same thing again. Eddy is a fine forward and scoring seems to be his middle name. RALPH H ULLARD Age, 17. Height, 6 feet. Wfeight, 156. The tall men certainly do make ine basketball players and Ralph is no exception. His guarding is very good and Fess knew how to use him to the best advantage. VVILLARD KEERANS Age, 17. Height, 5 feet, 7 inches. XVeight, 135. VVillard knows good basketball and shows all his knowledge in every game. He is a good, sure guard, and has scored more than one game from the pot. 94 BME Q9 1 THE NECKLENBURGEH ---Gr ELIZABETH GONZALEZ, Captain ELIZABETH STRATFORD, Manager. Our Girls Team of '23 has had the luck which seldom comes to girls. They succeeded in getting our beloved Coach Dick as coach for their team. He is a fine coach. Qur girls have learned principles in basket ball which they had never known before. Their team Work is to be highly praised. Our manager has secured for us the most agreeable people to play and the games have been thoroughly pleasant. 'We wish to thank the Student Body for helping us by coming to our games.

Her ability for shooting goals and captaining her team has won for Charlotte High most of the games. 'When Elizabeth gets her hands on the ball there is more than likely to be two points for Charlotte. If it vvasn't for our Captain, 'Wllhat would we do P ELIZABETH STRATFQRD, Forward Stratford has shown us her business ability by her wonderful success as manager of the team. She also shows us splendid work as Forward. In fact, she can play almost anywhere. Coach played her at guard in several games and she shone there as she does as Forward. We have great expectations for her future basket ball career-and, l3id , we hate to give you up. XVQXYNE DUDLEY, Guard lYayne, though not very tall, can not be surpassed as Guard. She plays stationary guard, and when she gets in front of her girl, she sticks. She is quick and is always in the right place at the right time. Qur team would not be complete without Xllayne. SARAH COCCI-I, Ccziter This is the first year Sara has been on the Varsity Squad, but you would never know it. You would think she was a regular professional . She is quick and puts up a good game. She is one ofthe best lighters on the team. Sara can always be counted upon to do her best. V ALICE GIBBQN, Center Charlotte flatters herself by saying she has two of the best guards going . Alice is petite,' also, but she is grand. She is just as peppy in a game as she is naturally. Xlfhen she gets her hand on the ball, there it stays until the whistle blows. This is Alice's lirst year on the squad, too, but we know it won't be her last. VVe're hoping great things for you, Alice. IXIILDRED CAVE, F01ftt'ard This being Mildred's first year on the squad, you would naturally think her a little timid. But not Mildred for such as that. She doesn't mind such a little thing as a fall just so she keeps her hand on the ball. VVe're looking to great work for Mildred next year. ELSIE BROVVN, Guard Elsie is also a new one. She is quick and means business when slie's in the game. She lights for her rights and simply dotes on tall girls as her opponent. l-leight can't stop Elsie. She knows how to work them. Elsie is the kind to have when you want a hard fought game. THE SERS We have the best bunch of Subs, and we are looking to them to carry on the glory of old CL H. S. next year. Were depending on you, Subs, show us. Subs: EDITH DCDLEY, MARY ELIZABETH HARNETT, BETTY BRYAN, MARY MILLS HAM, MARY LEE NICHOLS, FAITH DUDLEY. 96 seg Gia' VH SCIHIS S HDI TIVEIJ.

As stated in its purpose, they stand for Christian character and Christian ideals and the spread of these ideals throughout the student body. Not all students may become Hi-Y men, but through its members this club has an influence over the student body and this influence tends to raise the standards of living of the high school. It is a distinct honor for a boy to be elected into a club, as the club requires of its members to be the highest type of manhood, and to live up to the laws and the spirit of the Hi-Y. There are four Hi-Y's in the Charlotte High School: two Senior Hi-Y's, the Junior Hi-Y, and the Sophomore Hi-Y. Each club holds a meeting once a week under the leadership of a man who is in sympathy with the Hi-Y work and is capable of directing the energies of his club. At these meetings the work and the activities of the club are discussedg the meeting is opened and closed with prayer and the spirit of Christ prevails over all. THE GIRLS' HIGH SCHOOL CLUB The Girls' High School Club is an organization under the Direction of the local Young VVoman's Christian Association, to which anv hi h school Girl above A n 4 V a Zi u the Freshman Class may belong. It was organized in l906, and since that time has greatly increased in membership and influence, until to-day it is a factor of the reatest im iortance in creating and maintaining high ideals in our school. 6 bw 5 At the regular club meetings short talks and pageants are had which are both interesting and inspiring. The Come Clean Campaign and the contest held with the Hi-Y Clubs at the first of the year were also helpful in more ways than one. It is true that we lost the latter, by a close margin, but nevertheless we feel that the contest was a decided success. This year a great many girls in our club are trying to win a Girl Reserve ring, the highest honor which may be awarded to any girl reserve. To do this she must, to the best of her ability, live up to the high ideals for which the club stands. Throughout the year the club has done much to help others. At Thanksgiving and Christmas several poor families of the city received well-filled baskets and later we gave the Good Samaritan Hospital things which are always needed around a hospital. There is a social side to the club. The Hobgoblin Banquet , given on Hallowe'en, the banquet for the Hi-Y bf ys at the close of the contest, and the Martha VVashington Party will be remembered for a long, long time. Looking back over this year we feel that, in all phases of our club activities, we have come a long way toward accomplishing our purpose, which is to create, maintain, and extend, throughout the Charlotte High School, high ideals of Christian Character, and to lead girls to a personal knowledge of Jesus Christ as Saviour and Friend. The purpose of the Hi-Y clubs is to create, maintain and extend throughout the school and community higher standards of Christian character. 99 Q im 51 B LU OOL C H SC GH GIRIJS HI 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 11 1 A, 1 1 ,., .,.. 1 ' M-4 Q1 H' ,W ,1 , . 1 ' Q1.H ',2v11. .4 1- : ,bf 1. 331 -we 1,1 1 1 1 1 11 1 1 1 11 11 11 1 1 11 ix 1 1 .1 z 1 1 V 1 11 11' 111 1 11 11 11 11 1 1 11 1: 1 1 1, 1 I 111 111. 11 1 U 11 11 11 1 1 '111 Q11 11 1 11 311 '1 11 '11 11 11 nl: 11 111' 1 1 1. fa 11 11 11 1 I 1 1 1 1 1 11 1 1 ml- I9 T Il MECTTLTQNBUTTGTH A25 ---CF THE GIRLS' HIGH SCHOOL CLUB THIS YEAR'S CABINET OFFICERS LILLIAN JOHNSON .... .........................,...............,.... ,...... . , ...

'llhe purpose, or the work of this group, is to malcc l our school better in every way. ,lt is divided into four committees: the citizenship, the recreation, the health, and the Scholarship. 'llhe council was formed not to be ornamental, but to he extremely essential. lt has elected but one officer, the l president, Lillian Johnson, who with the co-operation of the school, including hoth the students and the faculty, has tried to make it the organization which it should l i be.

The Rfmzbler is the weekly school paperg the I-lnzzual, as its name implies, is the the school year book. These publications prove both an enjoyment and a benetit to the in- dividual student and the student body. They are alike in their purpose of stimulating the school spirit and creating a stronger interest in all school activities: however, they are different in the part they play in the school life. The ltuniblvr is a medium of exchange of ideas and opinions, a means of developing literary talent, and a bearer of the school news and activities of all school organizations. It is a very enlightening and interesting paper, because of its varied and its well-written contents. In it are found club, social and athletic news, and in fact, all news that is inter- esting to the student. The Poets Corner and Just Rambling are clever and amusing, al- ways affording much fun to the reader. The editorials and essays not only show the talent of those who write, but offer helpful suggestions, and encourage those who read them to do better work. Such a paper tills everyone with school pride and loyalty. lt is through the circulation of this paper that the community and other schools tind out what we are doing and get their impressions of our school, just as we are brought in touch with them through exchanges and receive suggestions and help from their publications. lt must be remembered that, although the paper is published by the student body, the heaviest responsibility falls upon the staff, the editors, assistant editors and business managers. They generously give their time and best efforts to make T110 Ramlvlvr a success. All eagerly await each issue and read with the greatest delight its contents and there is no doubt that all of us have secretly admired the work of the staff, but we now express our hearty appreciation to those to whom, by their constant and steadfast work, we owe our paper. The Amzzzul consists chiefly of the personnels of the faculty and classes, and of a review of the activities of the school and its organizations for the past year. Everyone in the school has a place in the .vlzmual and therefore everyone should be interested in its publication. The graduating class probably has the greatest interest in it, since it contains the annals of their most important school days. Not only to them is given the greater space and an important place in the book, but also the responsibility of publishing it. The most capable and talented persons till the four offices of editor, assistant editor, art editor and business manager. They have in their hands the task of publishing it, and it is largely due to their work that the ,flnmial proves an attractive memento for each Senior to keep. What does this memento mean to each and every one? In it are found the history of our school work and school play. The frolic and fun of some of our gayest and happiest school days, and last, but not least, the faces of school chums and class mates, friends and teachers, are left with us as a permanent heritage. -ELIZABETH CRIGLER. 108 M za 93 !

Tl-IE RAIVIBLER The purpose of 'lllzv ICCIIIIZPICI' has been to present, inipartially, school news: to give the student body the opportunity of expressing its opinion as regards school problems: and to boost all things which would lead to a better Charlotte High School. Hur paper seeins to have been quite a success. Financially, the paper has been a money nialcer, which fact is due to the conunendable work of the advertising managers. The staff hopes that next yearls paper will have all success and if its staff ever needs any advice that through experience the l9Z3 staff can give, they will be only too glad to lend a helping hand in making next 5'ear's paper the very best that Charlotte lligh has ever edited.

The evening was thoroughly enjoyed by all those present. Ice cream was served thruout the evening. One of the most enjoyable entertaimnents of the year was the Darktown Minstrel, presented in the high school auditorium on Saturday evening, November 11, and Monday evening, November 13, for the purpose of defraying a debt on last year's annual. The program was divided into two parts, with selections by a chorus of Girl's Club members during the intermission. The program was so thoroughly enjoyed by those at the first performance that it was decided to repeat the show. Much of the success of the entertainment was due to XVillard Keerans, Miss Bertha, Mr. Penny and Thomas Craig. We were indebted to Mr. Claude Lee for the scenery. The Music Clubs of the L'niversity of North Carolina gave an excellent concert in the high school auditorium, November 2-l, under the auspices of the Charlotte High School Athletic Association. The club is composed of the Glee Club, Orchestra, and Mandolin Club. The Music Clubs have long been known for their excellence and their performance here was especially entertaining. One of the best numbers on the nrogram was the musical skit, The Fla 1 1er's O Jeraf' S l l On December 9, at the Chamber of Commerce, Mr. C. O. Kuester entertained the football team at a delightful banquet. During the evening, speeches were made by Dr. Graham, Mr. Penny, Coach Kirkpatrick. Mr. Paul, and several members of the team. Vernon Ausbarn, captain-elect, was presented with a head-gear for making the best speech. A number of high school girls, dressed in grey caps and aprons, served. Under the auspices of the Girls' High School Club a most entertaining Stunt Night was held in the high school auditorium, Saturday evening, December 16. The purpose of the show was to raise funds for the Girls' Club budget. Quite a number of clever and amusing stunts were carried out. A prize of ten dollars was presented to the Senior Girls for staging the best act, which they in turn presented to the Girlls Club. Their stunt was a dancing class conducted by Miss jean Crowell. The leading parts were ably acted by Misses Alice Gibbon and Mary Elizabeth Doggett. The Stunt Nights which are given by the students each year are always very original and amusing. One of the most delightful occasions of the Christmas Holidays was the Banquet given by the Girls, Club, at the Young Xlfomens Christian Association 11.3 M QM tgffbl' 19 THE Mi-icnr BURGER D255 is La.. .. . in honor of the Hi-Y Clubs. About forty couples were present. jean Crowell acted as Santa Claus and presented each boy with a gift from the beautifully decorated Christmas tree. Some received quite appropriate gifts, such as rattlers, milk bottles, rubber dolls, and pop guns. The evening was thoroughly enjoyed by all those present. The Girls' Basket Ball Team gave a charming reception for the Wlinston Girls' Team at the home of Miss Sarah Jamison in Myers Park, Friday evening, February 9. The Charlotte Girls had defeated the visitors in an exciting game that evening. Quite a number of boys and girls called during the evening to meet the Wfinston Girls, who are always popular in Charlotte. Dancing was enjoyed thruout the evening. Delightful refreshments, ice cream and cake were served. On Thursday afternoon, February ZZ, the Girl's Club gave a George NVash- ington Party at the Y. XV. C. A. Quite a number of girls were present and spent the afternoon in lively contests. Upon arriving, each girl was given a slip of paper bearing the name of George or Martha VVashington, a newspaper and a paper of pins, and told to make herself a costume appropriate for the name on the slip of paper. Miss Lillian johnson won the prize for the best costume. A number of other contests were enjoyed during the afternoon. Delightful refresh- ments, a salad course and accessories, were served by the social committee. The Fun Review, the Senior play. given in the Alexander Graham High School Auditorium, March l6, was a great success. The program was divided into five parts, all of which were cleverly acted and thoroughly amusing. Part HI, Rhythm a la mode, was especially good, the features of it being the singing of Miss Mildred Cave and Ed. VVilson. Miss Cave had a soprano voice of marked sweetness and Mr. XVilson possessed an excellent tenor. Part V, The Boot- legger's Bride , was good also. The benefits of the performance went to the Annual and the Athletic Association. The time has come for the Annual to go to press and the spring activities have scarcely begun. Many banquets, luncheons and other entertainments for the Seniors will be given later in the Spring. Thus they will carry away with them many happy thoughts of the last year spent in Charlotte High School. 114 mb Gm ter-2 !9TEMi1Ciiu3 BURGER B133 iere WIT AND HUMOR Don't cry, little boy, you'll get your ward in the end. .

THIS IS A STUDEBAKER YEAR 119 awe gm THE MECKLENBUHGEH 3 The Boon 0 Electric Service N industry, in commerce, and in the home, electricity has wrought a revolu- tion. It has multiplied the labor of man and has banished drudgery from factory, store and home. Electricity is appreciated for its full worth in industry. New industries are established where electric service can be had cheaply and in ample and sustained quantities. In copimerce it plays almost as important a ro e. lt has been slower to attain its rightful place in the home. Witli an electrical ap- pliance on the market today for practically every household duty, however, it is quickly commanding the consideration to which it is entitled in the home. Thus drudgery and exhaustion are no longer the lot of the widefawake housewife, whose cooking, washing, ironing, dishfwashing, sweeping and other cleaning, and other duties are done by electricity at little cost and with appliances that make such work as is necessary a real pleasure. 5OUTHLRlN PUBLIC UTlLITIEb COMPANI :oo::::o:::: :::::oe::::: ------ 1 S?
