CLASS STATISTICS The Class of '20 possesses numerous statistics, both good and -, although the greatest number being good. Whenever there were odd jobs such as, getting wood for the stove, escorting girls down the street with cap over his eyes and his hands over his face, getting up dif- ficult lessons, forever knowing that he can do something that his brain will not allow, Mr. Newton's right hand man, trisecting angles, asking thousands of questions, and Annie Ruth J'oyner's little lamb, better known as Jiggs. We, the class of '20, are forced to claim as the most inquisitive, most bashful, studious, peculiar and best all 'round boy, Jasper Daniel West. As for stenographers our Pearlie cannot be excelled. She knows how to economize in postage and has savedthe D. H. S. much valuable money by acting as its stenog- rapher. We have readily seen how she won her fame as the jolliest in the play Miss Molly. Her influence cov- ered the student body far and wide. In athletics she is a star. The Class recognizes as the best all 'round girl, most influential, jolliest and best athlete girl: Ruth Wilson.

ness pierces through and through. That everlasting air and Winsome smile stunned us all. Mabel Massengille was voted as being the most attractive and as having the prettiest eyes. In all classes there is always some who have special amounts of vanity. W eare grieved to think this of one of our esteemed classmates. This member is forever mimmicking someone and getting into trouble: James Pate is known as the most conceited member of the Class of '2O. Each day our day is made so bright by the appearance of a charming young lady, wearing her best smile and her beautiful hair fixed in the latest style and looking so neat in her best dresses, that the Class of '20 have placed the honor of being the prettiest and having the prettiest hair upon Lucile Howard. The sun cannot shine every day. At times very black clouds pass the sun and darken the day. So it was in our class. We could not be merry every day. Some days we were all cross and weary. On such days as this Annie Ruth Joyner was very sarcastic and egotistical. RICHARD RICHARDSON, '20, The first Sunday afternoon Miss Vera Wiggings was in Dover, she walked down Main street until she came to the Methodist Church. She .gazed at it for about five minutes. James Pate, poking his head out of a window, said: Say, Miss, what are you looking at this house for? Don't you know it is a church ? Miss Wiggins: I did think so until I saw the revil poke his head out of the window. 37
