B. GARY BLAKE This specimen of humanity is as full of deviltry as a porcupine is of quills. Next to getting himself and some one else into mischief, he likes a joke. In spite of all this, he is a good student, while his habitual good nature makes him liked by all who know him. Athletic Association. EDYTHE WHITE BOWE Edythe is one of the stars on the horizon of the Senior Class. She shines in everything—even physics! Her one passion is her dog; her one fault, the deliberate way in which she puts on her hat! And folks, she’s the best kind of a sport—always willing to try anything once—even speeding when there’s a “cop” behind. “Edy,” may you always succeed in bluffing misfortune as easily as you bluffed that cop. Patriotic Club. Girls’ High School Club. Athletic Association. JOHN CLARKE BOOTH There is a boy in school who resem- bles a certain deceased English king in features and military bearing—‘Mike,” alias King Rufus. “Mike’s” good humor has gained for him many friends, who will miss him greatly when he leaves for V. M. Il IDA BOYD “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” This is Ida, for she is always ready to lend a helping hand to any one. A true pal, a good student, and a faithful friend all characterize Ida. Her ready smile and pleasing personality have won her many friends at John Marshall. Athletic Association. 29

MARGUERITE BICKERS Yes, Marguerite is leaving us, Although she hasn’t yet decided on her career, it is rumored that she will specialize in Latin. Marguerite is one of those happy, care-free girls, bubbling over with fun and good humor. Her winning ways have gained for her a host of friends in old John Marshall. Patriotic Club. Athletic Association. WILLIAM C. BENTLEY There are many good reasons for Bill’s popularity. His success as an athlete and his fame as a musician, together with his perpetual good humor, make up a personality which has won the friend- ship and admiration of the whole school. And when before the cheery fireside, one recalls old friends and old memories, big “Ox,” with his bigger heart, will be among the foremost. Football Team ’21;’22. Patriotic Club. Athletic Association. Business Staff, Marshallite. Sergeant, Cadet Corps. Monogram Club. NELLIE BINFORD If I were to describe Nellie, no one else would be able to use the dictionary in the library for the rest of the term, nor would there be room for anything else in the Marshallite. Count yourself unlucky if you haven’t been in a French class with her. Good luck and best wishes, cherie. Girls’ High School Club. Athletic As- sociation. MINNIE LEE BLANKENSHIP Just being happy is a fine thing to do, Looking on the bright side rather than the blue. This is Minnie Lee. We hope that when she becomes somebody’s stenog- rapher, she will meet with the best of luck.

GEORGE EDWARDS BOWIS “The best of goods comes in small ” packages. Hail the little man with the big voice. When it comes to speaking, George is ay chains.” By his smiles, jokes, and kind words for everyone, he has made many fricn?- ships, which will continue with him in future life. Here’s to you, George, for the greatest success. MILDRED. BRELING This young miss is probably unknown to some of you, but her friends find that she is sweet and attractive. The Eng- lish teachers all breathe a sigh of relief when they have her in their class; but don’t forget, Mildred, that we are back- ing you, too. Girls’ High School Club. Patriotic Club. DANIEL E. BOOZ Who does not know “Dan” and his musical talent? The two are so closely related that where there’s cne you'll find the other. He is a good scholar as well. You just ought to see him in physies class. Here’s wishing you the best of success after leaving John Marshall, for we all know he will merit it. CHARLES HENLEY WRIGHT Charles is often seen but seldom heard. He stands high in his studies and high in the minds of his fellow-class- mates. His willingness to do for others has won him many friends in John Marshall. We sincerely hope that his future may be crowned with great success. Athletic Association. Corporal, Cadet Corps.
