Is she pretty Oh, my, yes!” Here’s a girl who constantly wears an R. S. V. P. smile that proclaims to the world that she enjoys life and would like to have us all enjoy it with her. The minute you meet Esther, you love her be- cause it is the only thing to do. GEORGE EARL WILLIAMS Athletic Association f2, 3. 4) ; Literary Club (2) ; Dramatic Club (4). “A jolly sprightly little fellow.” Mischief personified, George Earl is always on hand to pep up things for us. The only time he begins to get serious is when he thinks it is about time for Santa Claus to arrive.

With a brilliant, original mind,” What would the class of ’27 be without Charles? He, with his wit and humor, keeps us in a happy state of mind. Then, when the time comes to be serious, he is always there. His school work is good and he is a jolly good fellow among both boys and girls.

I LERA BELLE ROUSE Music Club (4). “For her heart was in her work, and the heart giveth grace in every art.” Lera Belle is one of a set of twins and of course Lois is tlie other. To those who still confuse the two, we had better say that Lera Belle is the Frenchy one as to hair and eyes. We’re all fond of our pretty little Lera Belle and predict a happy future for her and her fortunate help meet. LOIS ROUSE Athletic Association (3) : Dramatic Club (4) : Class 1‘oet (4). “Remember, ever, thru ' storm and stress, That over the hilltop lies success.” Lois is so down-right sensible, there is no foolishness about her, and you may “lay to that.” It is so rare to find someone who possesses that virtue in abundance that she stands honored in a class of people who would gladly possess it too. LYLE SITTER SOX Class President (1) : Debating Club (2( ; Ath- letic Association (2, 3, 4) ; Class Treasurer (3, 4) ; Chairman Dramatic Club (4) ; Basket- ball (4i; Business Manager Kay-Aitch-Bss (4). “Ilow happy is he born and taught. That sereeth not another ' s will.” Scientifically analyzed Lyle is a rare com- bination of intellectuality, argumentacious loquacity, and egois tical perspicacity. We predict for him a successful future in head- lines like this: ENSIGNUS NAUTI CO- RUM, DILIGENTIA, CUM LES FEMMES, et E PLUR1BUS UNUM. SELAH ! SARAH TAYLOR Music Club (2) ; Athletic Association (3, 4) : Dramatic Club (4). “A tiny voice, but it says much.” Who is that cute little Freshman? Hush, that’s no Freshman, but one of our most dignified Seniors ! Who started that old saying that “Precious gifts come in small packages”? This applies very well to our dainty little Senior, Sarah Taylor. 20

Class Poem For four long year we’ve worked for the goal Mow we’ve reached it with happiness untold ; nappy and gay as you can see For we’ve reached the end of our destiny. We will ever remember the blue and white Our school colors where we were taught right And our blue and gold we’ll never forget, For many years the memory will linger yet. Now into the world we go as we part But keeping dear memories within the heart “May happiness go with us, and with those That would make good of bad and. friends of foes. We’ve had troubles and pleasures too In the high, school days that we’ve been through. Now into college to be freshmen once more. Leading to the land we long hoped for. With a sad heart we leave Kinston High School, Where each day we’ve been taught the Golden Buie. This dear old faculty that we love so true, We are very sorry we must leave you. as we pass out of Kinston High May we look back ivithout a sigh. And remember as the years onward roll This dear old class with the blue arid gold, Lois Rouse, Poet.
