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. Athletic Association, Girls’ Literary So- ciety.

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!

THE MARSHALLITE. MARY ELIZABETH BASS We are all fond of this happy little girl. Her smiling countenance and cheery ways brighten us always. Mary is a diligent student, and enjoys all her studies, es- pecially mathematics. She is quite a poetess. Have you read her verses? After you leave old John Marshall may you go over the top” in whatever you may undertake. JOHN A. BLAND First as a good worker, first as a good sport, and first in the hearts of his class- mates, especially in those of the fair sex, stands John, known for his fun and music- making. May he lead a long and happy life! Corporal Cadet Corps, Patriotic Club, Spanish Society, Athletic Association. MARY BENNETT “Children should be seen and not heard.” Mary certainly lived up to this at John Marshall, for she could always be seen, but seldom heard. However, she has deceived us, as this is not true when she is away from school. Mary is a friend who can be depended upon at all times. Athletic Association. Pal ie BORING Here she comes, there she goes.” Ethel seems always to be in a hurry— hence her motto, Better late than never.” Independence, ambition, idealism, and determination, plus a charming per- sonality is Ethel. She is particularly fond of music, dancing, and books. Although an industrious little girl, she is never too busy to smile and pass a pleasant word. Good luck and a most successful future, Ethel! Senior French Society. 21
