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.

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.

THE MARSHALLITE. 22 JESSIE BINFORD ’ Jessie is a girl of the “truest blue,” with sterling character, yet possessing just enough foolishness and light-heartedness to make her an ideal pal. Girls’ High School Club, Athletic As- soctation. JOLIN UES BRA Ya Re Oh yes! Jack is that tall blond. Really, it is net his fault that he is so popular with the ladies. With that athletic figure topped by such a mop of hair, and a knack for dancing, what more could you expect? Jack's popularity does not lie entirely with the opposite sex, however, for he is one of the most popular fellows in school. Boys’ Debating Club, W. H. A. T. Club, Patriotic Club, Athletic Association, Man- ager Basket Ball ‘21. DORISyV BUTLER Doris is a most versatile creature, having both the power of translating Vergi! and of imitating Pavlowa. Both of these traits combined give her a most remarkable personality. She is always full of fun, and never fails to make her- self heard when she is around. We hate to lose you, Doris, but we hope that good luck will always be with you. Girls’ Literary Society, Athletic As- sociation. M. MAXINE BENDHEIM A smart-looking girl with captivating brown eyes is Maxine. When we add to these charms, grace in the art of dancing, the result is all that could be desired. She's a good sport, a good old pal, and a fine student. Much success we wish to you, Maxine! Recorpb Staff, Athletic Association.
