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!

(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.

THE MARSHALLITE. 20 ERNESTINE BABER “Teeny” is what we call her, But “Smiles” is a better name, For it matters not where we see her, Her smile is always the same. She is one who never worries, But always makes the mark, Just as we hope she will do, When from us she departs. JOHN ROBERTSON BARKSDALE If silence signified wisdom, John would surely be a second Solomon, for he seldom talks. But when he does, it is worth while to listen, for he is ready with infor- mation, regardless of the subject. The best o'luck to you, John, and may the world have the same good faith in you that your class-mates have. Treasurer Senior French Socie ty, Boys’ Debating Society, Athletic Association, Cadet Corps. Me LUGIEE ER BEAKE Who is she? Why, don’t you know? She’s the “Puzzle Girl.” Every day this fair maiden comes to. school prepared to ‘spring’ a new puzzle or riddle on us. May she go through life joyously sur- prising others as she has us: Spanish Society. EMILY V. BRADSHAW Strayed—From the vicinity of John Marshall, January 1921, our dear com- panion, Emily. We strongly suspect a certain Richmond University student of knowing her whereabouts. Anyone re- ceiving definite information please com- municate with her large circle of friends.
