ESTHER CROWSON “Shorty” Esther has taken part in almost every activity of the school. She has shown her talent for the stage in the Junior Play; has shown her ability as a speaker in the debates from year to year; and, lastly, she will prove what an excellent student she is when she carries off the scholar ship at commencement, for she has a higher average than any other girls in the class. “Shorty” has always kept her self-posession. Even when the report spread abroad that she was married, she was equal to the occasion. Red Cross Essay Prize, ' 19; Alternate in Triangular Debate. ' 20; Secretary of Class. ' 20; Staff of Tarpitur.

VIRGINIA GRAHAM “Curly Head” Who is that curly-headed girl who goes around with her finger in her mouth looking so bashful? Anyone might have asked when Virginia first came among us. But now we have found that she isn’t bashful at all; in fact, she is one of our best talkers whether in ordinary conversation or before an audience. Although her classmates say she is a regular translating machine, she insists that tier chief ambition is to get out of work and her favorite pastime is drinking chocolate milk shakes. We are tempted to close with her favorite expression: “Well for goodness sake!” Wit Editor; Tarpitur. ' 22; President McNeill III. ' 22 . Nineteen

V ‘ . r A I u sar THE TARPITUR VIRGINIA EARP “Junie” “Caroline” “I know it isn’t either.” There’s Virginia, onr ladylike, quiet senior, disagreeing with Molly Parker again. “Junie” has fooled most every¬ body about her personality, but those who know her best say she’s a regular dandy. Her great desire is to keep out of bard work and have as much fun as she can. Censor of McNeill. ’21 - ' 22. MARY HELENE GRIFFIN “Piggie” Our Piggie is a sweet, lovable, unassuming lass, with a style thal is decidedly Frenchified. Quite often she may be seen to be writing a letter in study period, and it usually goes to Rocky Mount. Helene is valuable in all sorts of work, because when she does a thing it is well done. She loves to powder her nose and asks “Is my nose shiny?” about twice a day. Her ambition is to finish school and share her knowledge gene¬ rously with others. Literary Society Critic.
