Senior Cl ass Clara Marion Huffman To be efficient in a quiet way Is my aim through every day. ’ Athletic Association, ’21, ’22, ’23, 24; French Club, ’24. We present one in whom the Senior Class delights. Clara has made our school life pleasanter for us in many ways, too various to mention. She is always ready with a smile or cheery word for everyone she greets. Faithful and efficient in her work, contented where- ever she may be, Clara has established herself an enviable place in our hearts. F. H. S. says: “We delight to give your kind to the world.” Shelby Wayne-Arritt “Many talents are his. Child labor laws pre¬ vent him from doing more.” Behold our youngest member! Have we, the Class of ’24, robbed the cradle? Maybe in years, but not in intellect. He is one of those who allows others to do the broadcasting while he does the receiving (a virture seldom seen in a man). How much better off we all would be if we would follow Shelby’s example of quietude. When his golden silence is broken he usually makes a re¬ mark worth while. F. H. S. says: “Good luck, good-bye, and remember us long.”

Senior Class Audrey Veru Stevens “Of soul sincere, In action faithful, And in honor clear.” Audrey has stuck faithfully to her work throughout her High School life. She is a natural-born worker, putting her whole soul into whatever she under¬ takes to do, and doing it well. Loyal, dependable, and conscientious, Audrey is all this and more. Faithful to duty and trust, loyal and sincere to friends, no one fears for Audrey’s future, that one day she will reach the land where dreams come true. F. H. S. says: “Wishing you good luck and happiness.” Benjamin Godfrey Smith “With honest pride he scorns each selffish end.” Dramatic Club, ’24. This is Godfrey’s first year in our midst and his name on our roll has added much to our class and school. He is never tiring, always interested in the right and helping a good cause, with in¬ terest and remarkable ability. To have been Godfrey’s classmate and friend is a privilege and experience upon which, in years to come, memory will delight to dwell. F. H. S. says: “You leave with our best wishes.”

Se mor Class Josie Tompkins Carneal “Thou hast the patience and the faith of saints.’’ Athletic Association, ’21, ’22. Steady, dependable and true is Josie. Her sweet smile has brightened the lives of all who have known her. Don’t get the idea that she is quiet and digni¬ fied. Just ask her friends, and they’ll tell you she is talkative and mischievous. F. H. S. says: “There are honors in this old world for all who will take them.” Thomas Silvanus Morrison “An honest man, close buttoned to his chin, Broadcloth without and a warm heart within.” Athletic Association, ’21, ’22, ’23, ’24; Foot¬ ball, ’22, ’23; Manager Football, ’23. Ah! the man! The boy who behaves in football like a real player. Here he is, ladies and gentlemen, but handle him carefully; he is a rough gridiron star. He is on the spot at all times, at all places, and we are sure he will be one of Ole Virginia’s favorites ’ere long. When he leaves us this June, one of the mainstays of the football team will be gone. F. H. S. says: Do your best 1 ” Here’s to you, Tom.
