Page twenty-nine Choice Spring is such a spoiled thing, Every poet sings her praises, So when l feel the least inspired, I'll sing of Winter in my lays! Of Winter's storms and Winter's snows! Of shrieking wind and howling blast! Of cosy fire and warmth within- Without, who cares the storm may !ast3 No daffodils will deck my page, But roasting apples in the fire, No tender smile of gentle Spring, Instead-wild calls of Winter's ir Of course l really am no judge, My choice may have no reasong And yet l hold in preference Winter, the peer of any season! e!

K. S. Cyp, although so small, has an opinion of her own, which she voices as loud as the loudest of us. But the fact that she has the Best Disposition in school proves that she seldom expresses this opinion rashly. Her great generosity and cheerful nature have won for her many friends everywhere. My little body is aweary of this great world. MARY ALICE WILSON HENDERSONVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA Candidaie for Diploma Girls they whine, hoys repineg winds howl and seas roar, but Mary Alice's tongue wags on forever more. Through all the ups and downs she is the bright and happy one of the bunch , without her our days would surely be stale, Hat, and unprohtablef' But stilliher tongue ran on, the less weight il bore wiili grealer ease.

A certain person used sound judgment when he called Jo his Golden Girlul Not only does she shine in regard to her golden hair, but she's a shining light in geometry class as well.

lQ.Q.Q. -Q., 3355, 'IIE'52......Qf:TEL V ara rrrr 2 f l 2 1 Senior History f NE child is bad enough, why bother with two? If this thought had not Q99 entered the mind of the Wadswotrth twins' mother four years ago, after w QD she had spanked one of them twice-thinking she had done her duty to , both-the History of the Class of 1921 would have begun one year later. L As it happened, our Class life was really inaugurated in l9l6, when Gertrude and Margaret were sent to Fassifern where, thanks to the faculty, they were never spanked. The second year brought a few more recruits to our class and, to pass on briefly, we might say that Sophomore knowledge was acquired with little effort on our part. ln 1919 when we retumed to Fassifern as Juniors school life had to be taken more seriously. Student Government was tried out and proved to be very successful. The Junior-Senior banquet was the chief event of the year. Alas! we wonder who could adequately describe the thrill of being dignified Seniors! Our senior year finds our number increased to forty-two members, many of whom are daughters of Chief Bushy Head. Twenty-six of us watched over and protected by our good friend, Miss Buckner, live in McBee Hall, a cozy little home which Miss Kate and Mrs. McBee had built especially for the Seniors. Though we've often disturbed our teachers by making so much noise, we have tried hard to moderate our sweet Southern voices and we leave Fassifern with the hope that our career as a class will always remain a pleasant memory to those to whom we now say farewell. The SCl'liO1 S Farewell We, the Seniors of '2I, Upward we've struggled through many long years, Will now have to tell you good-bye. Not always doing our best, We utter these words with a twinge of regret But hoping and trying diplomas to win, As the time for our parting draws nigh. Until now we have finished our quest. We'll worry no longer with Latin and Math, Our school days will soon all be done. W'e'll quickly forget our Disorders and Words And only remember the fun. For we've had a good time at the school we all love, And we've each made some friends who'll be true. Though in boarding-school life some hardships you'll find, We admit ours have been very few. So we bid you farewell and pray don't forget Our brief, though ambitious past. We've had no long molto in Latin or Greek, But we tried to B2 to the last. Nom SEAVER, 'Zl. Page thirty
