Thelma Jones leaves to Helen McGee her ability to go through high school in three and one-half years. Effie Pribble, ourmost dignified Senior, leaves the aforesaid dignity to olaHoward f we 4f' Luda Barr eaves her prompt answers in Civics class to Bob Snapp. Beware of the Pork Barrel, Bob. Alta Powell leaves her position in the High School Orchestra to Dolly Yoho. ' Thomas Jenkins leaves his ability as a football and basketball star to Earl Jumps. Earl, you should feel very much honored! Robert Cornelius leaves his sleepy, Monday mornings in V eigil to any unfortunate Latin student that wants to take charge of them. Denzel Edmonds leaves to Edward McMahon his liking for baseball during the absence of Professor Black. 5 Geneva Rees leaves her practice of lowering her voice during recita- tion to Robert Smith, Esq.

Lois has been given the honor of representing us both as president and editor-in-chief. The record our fellows have made in football and basketball this year speaks for it- self. Shack is expected to bring us honors again in tl ack. Lois Satterfield, Emma Keenan, and Robert Cornelius are to represent us in declamation and Fred Snyder and Robert Cornelius in extempore. We have already had three parties and are intending to have many more. In proof of our quite exceptional ability, here is our record: Of the eleven men on the football team this year, eight were Seniors. Shack Macklin, Denzel Edmonds, Thomas Jenkins, Herbert Thornton, and Lester Dunivan made exceptional records. Herbert, Thomas and Lester have done likewise in basketball. The countless victories of Orville Macklin and Robert Tharp prove unquestionably our superiority in track. The school tennis champions, Lois Satterfield and Robert Cornelius, are both from our class. The records of Frances Mingee, Lois Satterfield, and Horace Stark, as speakers, are a source of pride on our part. Alta Powell, Eulah Morris, Denzel Edmonds, and Robert Cornelius have been members of the high school orchestra for four years. We have given successfully two plays, one of which, the senior play, Betty's Last Bet, drew, undoubtedly, the largest crowd that ever attend- ed a high school play. Our average in grades has been superior to that of all other classes in this school during the past three and one-half years and still continues to be. Lois Satterfield and Robert Cornelius are breaking all records of G. H. S. by graduating with nineteen credits each. Thomas Jenkins is doing likewise with eighteen and one-half. ' We have reported more news through the agency of Eulah Morris, Denzel Edmonds, and Robert Cornelius, to the newspapers than any other class that has ever been in G. H. S. High school notes have also been sent to others besides the local papers, a thing which has not, heretofore been done by this or neighboring high schools. We are successfully making this annual with the greatest cost of any annual ever made here and during the worst economic conditions this coun- try has known for the last two decades. The moral and social standing of our class is distinguishably pre- eminent. Holding these truths to prove conclusively my first statement, we, the senior class, leave you to go out and conquer in the world as we have con- quered here. ROBERT CORNELIUS.

Fred Snyder leaves to Ted Hires his position in the Ag. class. Hang on to it, Ted! Eulah Morris leaves her light weight to Vivian Clark. Don't eat candy, Vivian 5 it makes one fat. Orville Macklin leaves his noon trips to the hill to Bernard Ward. Which one shall it be, Bernard? Ira Hall leaves married joys to Leo Thomas. Leo, don't get married before you graduate. Earl Lyon leaves his dirty football clothes to Oren Clark if Oren will wash them before using. Kenneth Shecter leaves his height to Clyde Goss to be gained before graduating. Lester Dunivan leaves his positions on the football and the basketball teams to any one who may aspire to be a star. Of course, the clothes must fit. Frances Mingee leaves her position as heroine in our plays to Edna Barr. You have a good start, Edna. Horace Stark leaves his Physics learning to Jack Dornblaser to be used next year or be forever thrown away. fSignedD CLASS OF 1922.
