How- ij ever, it is the exception that proves the rule as we shall show you. The ll lite, Statistics for our Class are not dull. dead facts, but vivid, manv sided l fc 'lil ' lt glimpses of our daily lite. ll Leila ,fbi ,l Skit .Xfter having' held the following solemn and satisfactory election we lliought our dear friend, The Public, would be interested to note that: Ilie Senior Chatterboxes are the tallest boy and girl m our room, Addie li Smith and llerman Xllliite. l lg Annie XYillis and llarry XVyckoll', the best looking were chosen last year as the best all 'round in lligh School. ll'alter lloyle and the Statistician were voted the most popular. li l XYe think the old adage ot iil'I'2lCl1CC makes l'ertect is well carried out by f: Mildred l'erkins and XYalter lloyle since they are considered our best dancers. i ll llonors seem to be evenly divided since llerman Xlihite and Vivian Bigger- li ,. I . v vs statt are the most original, Alton Wood and llese lxizer the most capable, but what is strangest of all Zeb lieever and Yours Truly are called the wittiest. li I lieauty is one of the outstanding features of our brilliant class of boys and t girls. Sarah Costner and Tom Harrill were elected the most attractive, and she i and llarry XYyckotT the cutest. I I llillo would have thought that Alton XYood and Sallie A-Xbernethy, the most ll talented, were also the hardest workers? ?l NYe willingly give l.a Yon llutnam and Graydon Shuford credit for being ,, Ei the most polite, and Sarah Costner and XYalter lloyle the most dashing. li The daintiest is also the smallest girl in our class, Pauline llouser. l il . . ll The most bewitchmg eyes belong to Mary Ellen Mundy, li U U 1 L' Xlialter lloyle has the undisputed title of Cake-Eater. 'l lie teachers, how- ever, say he should be called Guin-Chewer. I Sarah Costner is our l'llapper and it is also evident that .Xlton lVo0d is R our local Dapper Dan since he is the masculine tlapper and shares equally with H Mary lfllen Mundy the distinction of being the biggest tlirt. ll ln the art of blutting' we bow to Edna .lones and lom llarrill. ,l it 26 f? ,J W fa' 2? f' ' Za.- :Z XRAQ5 ffv,

Orators, debaters, musicians, athletes, writers, and actors-what else does it take to make a class renowned? XVhen the members of this remarkable class have all achieved the fame and honor that are bound to come to them, the fond recollections of these four years will still linger in the hearts and minds of each as the cherished memories of a happy journey.

D. lllackburn and il'auline llouser seein to be victinis of increasing bashful- NESS. A .Xlthough Edwin Royster and llese liiser are considered the biggest eaters, Edwin and Mary Stuart lfdwards seein to be the fattest. lt is agreed that Edna ,lnnes and XYalter lloyle are the best sports and Donald -lones and .Xnnie XYillis the best all 'round. The champion in football is llugh jenkins: in basketball, Donald: while Cray- don Shuford is the niost athletic. Statistics say that Sallie .Xbernethy and Robert Costner are the niost studious of this very industrious class. llowever, we have a different opinion on the sub- ject. Mildred l'erkins and .Xlden Mullen seein to have the Gift o'the Gab , for we have conferred the title of best conversatifinalists upon the-in. Every one will agree when we say that .Xddie Sinith and Klurl llugeins deserved to be called the Class tlruniblers. Mary Ellen Klundy and lfdgar ,Xbernethy seein to be our ideal couple. ls it because Edgar is so quiet that one thinks he would be easily henpecked? llese Kiser is undoubtedly the heartiest laugher and causes us no end of trouble because of her hilarity. tlur favorite colors are blue and white and what is niost strange our favorite occupation is loafing, a thing which we seldoni indulge in. We think the niost thrilling song is Hail, hail the gangs all here while of all books, we like Yirgil's .Xeneid best, though only live of us have ever seen in- side of it. ti Jpinions on the favorite author range froin ,l lonier to llud liisher. The girls' favorite flower is liachelor liuttons, while the boys like liorg'et-ine- nots. Vvhen asked, lf you were not yourself who had you rather be the answers were evenly divided between Mr. Krauss and Gloria Swanson. The girls' greatest ambition is to vainp 1 ls. Our chief extravagance seeins to be wasting words and energy trying lo persuade Klr. Johnson that we need Senior privileges. Thus endeth our story, but saw you ever such a Class for beauty, charm, and wit? For kindness, courtesy and grace? ,1 fx C..
