MARGARETTE LUCILE JACKSON, Io, “Vanity get thee hence!” Age 17. Weight, 110 lbs. Height 5 ft., S in. Although she won’t acknowledge it, Margarette is one of the most con¬ ceited girls in the room, and any time one may look back at her she is primp¬ ing before a miniature mirror, (and this is especially noticeable before Mr. Gantt comes in.) She can work Ge¬ ometry like a graduate and it is posi¬ tively ' against her principles to show -any one else how to work it. LOLA MAIE HOLLAND, McN. “How sweet and fair she seems to be.” Age 18. Weight, 100 lbs. Height, 5 ft., 2 in. President McN. Society, ’14; Art Editor Reflector, ’14. Lola Maie is certainly the artist of the class, and many good contributions has she made to the Sage and Reflector during her four years at G. H. S. She has big brown eyes and rosy checks, and she uses them to perfection during English and Chemistry periods. Some¬ times she is stubborn and especially when she is called on for a Geometry proposition that she is not sure of. Pa4e 27

MARY JOSEPHINE GRIMSLEY, Io. ‘ ‘ When she had passed it seemed like the ceasing of exquisite music.” Age 18. Weight, 130 lbs. Height, 5 ft., 7 an. President to. Society, ’13; Treasur¬ er To. Society, ’12; Marshal, ’13; Spon¬ sor Athletic Association. ’13; Moni¬ tor Class, ’14; Glee Club. “Mary” as she is called by some and ‘‘Josie” by others is one of the best looking girls in G. H. S. and a more attractive one can nowhere be found. She wears a smile that vcon ' t come off ami with those dangerous flirting brown eyes of hers ‘he even makes Prof. W. A. H. Gantt smile at her dur¬ ing Chemistry; also she stays for ‘‘coach class” occasionally in the af¬ ternoon. When she knows a thing she knows she knows it and especially on Geometry and History. Mary was elected the most attractive girl in the class and she justly deserves the honor. ANNIE FRED FOUSHEE Io. ‘‘Music seemed to breathe from her very words.” Age 17. Weight, 135 lbs. Height, 5 ft., 9 in. Critic Io. Society, ’12, ’14; Leader Rooters Club, ’13; Editor Reflector, ’14: Historian Class, ' 14; Historian Io. Society, ’13. ‘‘Lengthy” was too bashful to in¬ clude her own character sketch in her ‘‘Senior Editor” work, so let it be known that this was done by a friend. She is an excellent example of the old saying, ‘‘Let us work while we work,, and play while we play,” and illus¬ trates the first part in class and the latter in study period. Her two most noted characteristics are her ability to compose and the ease with which she can ‘‘get around” the teachers,, especially at recess. H a£e 26

MARGARET LOUISA JUSTICE, McN. “There’s many a black, black eye they say, but none so black as mine.” Age 18. Weight, 115 lbs. Height, 5 ft., 6in. President McN. Society, ’13; Mar¬ sh?!, ’13; Secretary McN. Society, ’It, ’13. No title ever fitted one better than flirt for Margaret. Her whole make¬ up and outward appearance is of that type, but inwardly no more attractive, sweeter and conscientious girl ever lived. Margaret doesn’t mind saying exactly what she thinks, consequently this has gotten her into trouble more than once. Truly she is the sfar of the class on History, and when she once begins to recite she wants to tell the whole lesson. WILLIAM SYLVESTER JOHNSON, Di. ‘ 1 Farewell, a long farewell to all my greatness, ’ ’ Age 18. W eight, 130 lbs. Height, 5 ft., 9 in. Triangular Debater, ’13; President Di. Society, ’14; Orator, ’14; Glee Club; Vice-President Di. Society, ’13; Editor Reflector, ’13, ’14; Press Re¬ porter Athletic Association, ’14; Edi¬ tor Sage, ’14; Triangular Debater, ’14. The orator of the class comes for¬ ward with his brilliant eloquence and many a hearer has he convinced to his way of thinking. William is good looking, but conceit is written indeli¬ bly upon his countenance. He argues on Geometry and wastes many a min¬ ute arguing prop ' s that have already been explained. He writes a good fist and has piloted the Sage through a successful year as business manager. l aiie 2S
