LENOIR WEEKS Athens, Tennessee MANUAL TRAINING HOME ECONOMICS Pi Sigma Secretary Pi Sigma, Fall ,22. Art Editor, Old I-Iickory. Measure thy life by loss instead of gain. Lenoir came to us in 1921 after graduating from the McMinn County High School, and decided to cast her lot with the class of '23. She is especially interested in Home Economics and Manual Training. If you canlt find her elsewhere she is in the Manual Training shop. Elsewhere is usually her room. But Lenoir's crowning quality, the one we appre- ciate most, is her ability to see a funny side to everything. Seeing it. she invariably laughs and then we all laugh, 'not because we see the funny side ourself, but because Lenoir's laughs are catching. RoBT.LE1oHToN sTAPLEToN, jf.

'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. Robert, after having completed his high- school work at the Normal, decided he would like -to become a teacher, so that he could give the pupils what had been given him while .he attended school. As for Robert- he goes peacefully on his way, moonshining whenever possible, winning all the tennis games he plays, and smiling always. The class of '23 has no fear as to his suc- cess in the future.

HELEN CLAIRE LUSK Johnson City, Tennessee ENGLISH-FRENCH ' Pi Sigma President of Girls' Glee Club, '22-'23. Music conquers all things. Music is an art, the possessor of which should feel herself luckily endowed. Helen is without doubt one of the most talented members of our class. Since entering the Music Department of the Normal, she has made rapid progress and is now fully cap- able of the duties of a supervisor of music. Although she plays the piano with ease the thing for which we admire her most is her 'sweet and entertaining voice. In fact, we are justly proud of her.
