(i{ THE MARSHALLITE. 18 ELMA HOPE ASHTON Thoughtful of others, happiest when giving happiness to her friends, lovely in her character and disposition, Elma has won a choice place in the esteem of her schoolmates. Her record as a student of old J. M. H. S. speaks for itself. Athletic Association, Girls’ High School Club, Senior French, Bee-Hive Society. RALPH O. ANDREWS Shake hands with Ralph, the “cow- puncher!’» He came to us from Texas only a short time ago, and, although he left the “cows” behind, he brought the “punch” to put into his career at John Marshall. Ralph's by-word, absolutely,’ together with his determined expression, makes us feel sure that he will attain eminence in any vocation of life. Patriotic Club, Spanish Society. ALLENE; ARCHER “Hath thy toil o'er books consumed the midnight oil?” A student and a friend indeed is she. A student did | say? Well, yes! She has made light the darkest paths of Vergil, and trod the stormy course of Chemistry to a glorious end. As a reward, Allene takes her sheepskin, and with it ‘21's best wishes. Girls’. High School Club, Senior French Society, Girls’ Literary Society. EDWARD ALEXANDER Gaze upon him, ladies. He is in- vincible, whole-souled and heart-free, possessing a pleasing personality and a winning smile, he has but one fault. “Country swears by all the gods that he is immune to the sharpest darts of Cupid. It must be because he cant find a girl to suit him, for we are sure no fair senorita could resist his smiles. Cadet Corps.

CALVIN D. ABBOTT If you have tried to read some of Calvin's writing, you have experienced at least one failure in your life. But if you are a graphologist and have analyzed his character from that handwriting, you have found many commendable charac- teristics. His sincerity, loyalty, jovial disposition and smiling countenance have made for him many staunch friends. May fortune always return your smile, Calvin! Debating Society, Cadet Corps. BLIZABE LF J ANDERSON “Here's the captain of Company “A,” Who swings her Company every day, Around the corner and every way, A Company giggling, giddy, and gay.” Besides being the brave Captain of “A” Company, Elizabeth is a most lovable, companionable person, being a veritable magnet in drawing friends. She is studious, too, which accounts for her going to Randolph-Macon College next all. Corresponding Secretary of High School Club, Literary Society, Annual Staff, Athletic Association, Captain in Girls’ Service Corps. EDWARD ANCELL Edward has made a host of friends among both the faculty and students. We will all miss him, and wish him un- bounded success in whatever he may undertake. FRANKIE A. ANDERSON “With hair untortured by abomination of art.” The gods seem to be particularly fond of Frankie, since they have blessed her with an unusual suppiy of good common sense, a sympathetic disposition, merry face, fair hair, and rosy cheeks. Good luck to you, Frankie. May the gods continue to bless you!

JAMES COLEMAN ANTHONY Jimmy is known to us by his easy and agreeable ways. His hobbies are athletics, camping, and dancing. Jimmy also “shines” in his class work, being a regular “shark” in history. If he takes as much interest in his business as he has in his school career, his success in the future is already assured. Athletic Association, Boys’ Debating So- ciety, Spanish Society, Cadet. Corps, Patri- otic Club. KINSEY BASS “If you have tears, prepare to shed them now,” for “Kinks,” one of John Marshall's favorites, is leaving us. We have cherished her during her short stay at school, and now that she has so suc- cessfully completed what she undertook with her “do or die” spirit, we send her away with highest expectations for her future ; ROBERT S. ARMSTRONG It is almost unnecessary to introduce you to Robert. They say he is quite a “shark” in physics and chemistry, but his feminine friends are by no. means limited to Ethyl-Bromid and Ana-line. Despite the fact that he has a bad habit of arriving at nine o'clock in the morning, we forgive him, and wish him all the luck possible. EDITH BABER? Edith is very necessary to the crew that mans the Ship of 1921. “Small but loud” expresses her. Although she is small, she makes her presence known by her never-ceasing tongue. Her talkative- ness mingled with her good humor has made her a favorite. Here's wishing the best of luck to the “Baby” of our class!
