As well as being a capable business girl, Kay is an expert basketball play- er. When it comes to dancing she is a shark ! She is a dandy, all around. Secretary and Treasurer, Maury Literary Society; Junior Basketball Team; Senior Basketball Team Captain; Varsity Team, 1923; Senior Athletic Representative. M. PARKE ANDERSON Covington, Va. Have you ever heard sweet strains of music? Well, if the strains are ex- ceptionally sweet, they are probably emanating from Parke ' s throat. An- other thing about Parke — she inclines strongly toward the Byronic ! Big- Cabinet, Y. W. C. A.; Little Cabinet, Y. W. C. A.; Junior Twelve; Senior Singers. SADIE ANDERSON Hampton, Va. Gee — I hate to grow up. That ' s what Sadie must have thought because she hated to tuck up her hair. But its up now and Sadie has clearly demon- strated her capabilities from A to Z., stopping at H — for History ! Thirty-nine SUSIE KATE ASHBURN Newport News, Va. If yon are near Susie Kate at 7 A. M., you ' ll be sure to hear Get up every- body — that ' s Susie Kate. She is one of our classmates who arouses our envy. She goes along so easily, but gets there just the same. Taking her all in all she is a Regular Fellow. ILVA BOYLE Hyacinth, Va. Ilva is the personification of life, overflowing with fun and energy. She is a Jack of All Trades. She is a good student, and athletically inclined. ' ith her pleasing personality, and her chat- ter-box tendenc} ' , she is a good com- rade. Y. W. C. A. Choir; Assistant Editor, Bul- let. NETTIE MARGARET BROOKS Woodford, Va. She is a modern little housewife, patient, earnest, deliberate, and in- tensely interested in The Household Arts. It is rumored that her knowl- edge along this particular line may be used in individual demonstration work ! Forty HILDAH BRAUER Fredericksburg, Va. The best sort of a girl is He. And when it comes to beauty, it is She. Show us a girl who worries less than Hildah. AVhy even teaching did not cause her to lose any sleep. Her ' ir- tues are manv ; her faults few. DORIS BARLOW Woodford, Va. Dependability linked with a loyal class spirit has won Doris many friends. A girl to whom you would tell your secrets ; a girl who commands the respect and admiration of her classmates — a true friend — that ' s Duris. MARGARET BROADDUS Newtown, Va. It is better to boss, than to be bossed, is Margaret ' s motto. In ar- g ' uments it is easier to be convinced ho- lier than to convince her. In athletics she has been maintaining the Broad- dus Standard of F. S. T. C. Junior Baseball; Junior Basketball; Senior Baseball; Senior Basketball; Varsity, 1924; Track Team, 1923. Forty-one MABEL BULMAN Wachapreague, Va. To know her is to know she has the gift of gab. ' If you hear a ripple of laughter down the hall, don ' t be sur- prised to find a little, jolly-looking blond, right on the spot where the laugh emerged from. HELEN BROCKLEY Hampton, Va. With quiet dignity and reserve, Helen has made her way through school, so unobtrusively that onl} ' those who have known her best, real- ized her true worth. She is a loyal friend, and has a kind word for all. Y. W. C. A. Big- Cabinet. RUTH BELLE Hampton, Va. When you think of Rut h, you think of her quiet, reserved manner. Yet those who know her well, will tell you that in spite of her reserved manner she is always ready for fun. She is a faithful friend. Forty-two JULIA BURTON Stevensburg, Va. Here is a perfect example of an at- tractive little housewife ! That ' s the only place we can imagine Julia filling-. Lucky is the future husband of Julia, for she can cook and sew and be a good pal at the same time. Chairman, Social Committee, Y. W. C. A. VIRGINIA BOYD Roanoke, Va. A capable, attractive and artistic girl is Virginia. When you want some- thing well done, call on her! She is a perfect poster-making shark — the pep- py posters that girl can make ! Chairman, Publicity Committee, Y. W. C. A.; Big- Cabinet, Y. W. C. A.; Chairman, Athletic Association Advertising Commit- tee. DOROTHY JARRATT BAILEY Scottsburg, Va. Dot is a true specimen of the good old South, endowed with those charac- teristic feminisms of our Southland. Those droll remarks that Dot makes so spontaneously, when one least ex- pects them, have caused us manv a laugh ! Chairman, Dec. Committee, Maury Liter- ary Society. Fortij-three HELEN BLUE Romney, W. Va. Dainty and demure is Helen ! When she speaks she always says something worth while ! Her frank, serious, blue eyes speak for the sincerity of her char- acter. Assistant Editor, Bullet, 1922-1923; Vice- President, Y. W. C. A., 1923-1924; Senior Singers; Senior Representative, Student Council. ANNIE BLAKE Kilmarnock, Va. To know her is to love lier can truly be said of Anne, because you ha e to know her to appreciate her fine traits. That baby stare that she casts on one with her innocent, blue e3 ' es must mal ' e man}- a lieart go pit-a-pat. RUTH CRIM Hillsboro, Va. Looking for a type? Well, here ' s one. Not a flip ; not a deep student ; not an angel ; but the embodiment of spicy characteristics along with a g ' ood sense of humor. Secretary-Treasurer, Senior Class. Forty-four DOROTHY CHILES Fredericksburg, Va. Dorothy is of the wholesome, intel- lectual type, and is efficiency itself ; ca- pable, self-confident. No, we won ' t call her stubborn, but her will is her own. Junior Baseball Team; Junior Basketball Team. ERTELLE CAMPBELL Penola, Va. There is a perpetual race between her brain and her tongue, but both are outclassed by her pep when she really wants to do a thing. She surely was a fervent supporter of the Senior Base- ball Team ! MARY ELIZABETH CLIFT Fredericksburg, Va. Elizabeth is a Senior Three, She ' s just as sweet as a girl can be. When Sociology period is about half over, the door softly opens and in creeps Elizabeth. She may be quiet, but just wait until she is called on to recite and then comes the surprise. Forty-six kltkficH MARY ELIZABETH CLYNES Nicholasville, Ky. A good student and an all around good sport is a rare combination. In Mary you will find both. Her flashing- brown eyes would be the envy of Theda Bara. Vice-President, Maury Literary Society. KATHAREENE COATES Oak Grove, Va. Kitty ' s independent air is her out- standing characteristic. Her motto is Never do today what can be put off until tomorrow. Kitty has a great big generous heart, and a jolly way that makes us glad to be with her. ELIZABETH COLE Crewe, Va. Take a little measure, and fill it cjuite full, and then, if you have filled it full of the right ingredients, you ' ll have Elizabeth. Be sure to put in spice, humor, and a goodly measure of the sure and steady. Forty-seven DORIS CARNEALE Fredericksburg, Va. Here is a girl who takes life easy. You can see this as she slowly climbs the hill each morning. She is indus- trious however, and we can picture her in years to come a gentle, little school Ma ' am. HAZEL CONNELL Norfolk, Va. Infinite treasure in a little room. One often wonders how so small a body can hold so great a brain and big a heart. You just ought to see Haze ' l dance or hear her play the violin. She is just — cute ! President, Washington Literary Society, 1924; First Associate Editor, Battlefield, 1924; Vice-President, Hiking Club, 1924; Exchange Editor, Bullet, 1924. BESSIE BYRD DICKINSON Fredericksburg, Va. Sweet, timid, and bashful to the cas- ual observer, yet she doesn ' t lack pep and wit, and is always ready for a g ' ood . time. Her specialties are making her pupils enjoy their work, and reading French. Forty-eight ELIZABETH DICKINSON Fredericksburg, Va. Here ' s to a girl with per])etual good humor. She is rather quiet and re- served, but once you get below the surface, you find a lovable personality, and a heart of gold. We love to call her friend. GRACE DEPUTY Waynesboro, Va. Depeuty has two dimples which we all envy. Her wit and originality always liven a crowd. She is viva- cious and peppy, and fairly bubbles over with enthusiasm at all of our Sen- ior affairs. Big Cabinet, Y. W. C. A. RUTH DILLARD Fredericksburg, Va. M ' e hardl) ' know what to say about Ruth without Ruby. What a pair they are. Ruth is just as popular in school as she is in town. She has extraor- dinary, individuality, a pleasing per- sonalitv, and es — she ' s full of rascal- ity ! Secretary, Kotillion Klub, 1923-1924. ForUi-nine RUBY DILLARD Fredericksburg, Va. Here o is our athletic Twinny ! Ruby is a shark for batting home-runs and catching fHes ' . Her ready smile and willingness to help others have won for her an enviable place in the class of ' 24. Junior Baseball; Junior Basketball; Track; Senior Baseball; Senior Basketball. GLADYS DODSON Senora, Va. Gladys is a persevering lass who always gets there but somehow we seldom hear her on the way. She does not grumble about too much work, and some of us might take a few points from her in this respect. RUBY MAY DRATT Woodford, Va. She is timid about stating her opin- ion, but when she does, you know that the subject has been thought through carefully. Consequently her friends frequently go to her for solution of their prolalems. Fifty FLORENCE ELWOOD EDWARDS Owenton, Va. Do you want to meet a dandy all around girl? Then get an introduction to Florence. A dandy baseball player, a cracker-jack, at basketball, a most competent teacher, a shark at cooking ' and sewing yes, she is all that ! LOUISE EDMONDSON Newport News, Va. If you don ' t know L(.)uisc you had better hurry and find her out, because vou ' U wish vou had known her sooner. B}- her sweet smile, and dimples, you ' ll be sure to know her. Keep uu smiling- Louise, and Dame Fortune ill surely smile on vou. EVA EDWARDS Newport News, Va. My Wonderful One is Eva ' s favor- ite song. And, thinking of the song, we think of Eva. Her list of offices shows her popularity ; her picture shows her beauty. Vice-President, Junior Class; Junior Rep- resentative to Student Council; Vice-Presi- dent, Student Government; Vice-President, Senior Class; Reporter, Bullet Staff; Big Cabinet, Y. W. C. A. Fifty-one FLORENCE FITTS Richmond, Va. She has only been with us one year, but has us feeling that it is our loss. She has been characterized as attrac- tive, pretty, capable, and a host of other things. Add them all together and you have Fitts. CATHERINE FISHER Logan, W. Va. Pep, that ' s her middle name.. Whenever there was need for quick thought, and quick action, Catharine was right there to fill in the breech. She is so original and fun loving, that to her we owe a lot of the good times we ' ve had. President, Virginia Reel Club. ELIZA FRASIER Bluemont, Va. You Give J Ie a Pain. She always says that, but she never means it. She has made a splendid president of Y. W. ; the best wish we can bestow on our Alma Mater is that she may have more Eliza ' s ! President, Y. W. C. A.; Leader, Student Vounteer Band; Junior Baseball Team; Senior Baseball Team. Fifty-tivo ELIZABETH GORDON Stafford C. H., Va. She is dandy baseball and basketball player, and a rare good sport. In other words — A Jim Dandy. She has more than filled the bill in all respects. Junior Basketball; Senior Basketball; Junior Track Team; Big Cabinet, Y. W. C. A.; Little Cabinet, Y. W. C. A. KATHRYN WAYNE GOULDIN Fredericksburg, Va. If you want a girl who is first rate, Put in a thumb — and draw out ' Kate ' . Kate is a rare girl ! She surprised us all one daj- b} ' stating in Sociology Class that one requisite of a successful marriage is Love. Imagine that! Even with that, Kate is a rare good fellow. HATTIE GOLDSTEIN Portsmouth, Va. Hattie is the possessor of a bright, sunshiny disposition, and a decided leaning toward the role of helping the other fellow. And in her practice teaching she was a marked success. She is well liked by all who know her. Fifty-four GLADYS GUINN Culpepper, Va. Glad3 ' s reaches the height of jocu- larity. Her wit, and dry humor are ever so close to the surface that they just can ' t help but bubble over. But she has a se- rious thought, too. Witness her splen- did career as teaching- Senior. We ' re betting- on vou ! FANNIE HOLLOWAY Portsmouth, Va. Once your friend, always your friend, is characteristic of Fannie. She is never blatant, never loud, but she manages to make her presence felt, and appreciated. She is a fine girl, and not at all hard to look at, either. ANNIE MAE HODGES Petersburg, Va. A kind heart, and an ever ready smile, make Annie Mae one of the best liked girls in our class. When it comes to eating- candv . nnie ; lae supports the Y. W. Junior Baseball Team; Junior Basketball Team; Senior Basketball Team; President, Carolina Club; Big Cabinet, Y. W. C. A. Fifty-five FLORENCE HUTT Montross, Va. Florence is a delightful embodiment of good fun, humor and real common sense. These qualities naturally make her a fine companion and sincere friend. VIOLA BEATRICE HITT Stevensburg, Va. Someone has said that all Viola need- ed was a hoop skirt and pantalettes, and she could be labeled 1865. You ' ve seen the type I know — demure down- cast eyes, but a turned up-at-the cor- ners-mouth. That tells the story. JUNE HAUGHT Culpepper, Va. A book that grows more delightful at each reading. Dependable, that ' s June ! She han- dles her many positions with perfect capability. Nothing but success and happiness can crown her. Senior Representative, Student Council; Chainnan, Bible Study Committee, Y. W. C. A. Fifty-six MYRTLE HARLOW Elmont, Va. This little blond knows just how to make her pupils bubble over with en- thusiasm, and knowledge they didn ' t even know they had before she entered the classroom. ' e expect great things of vou Mvrtle ! NELL HAWES Lynchburg, Va. A touch of gentle fingers, and an understanding heart. Calm, serene, the embodiment of re- finement — there you have Nell.

A.; Senior Representa- tive, Student Council, 1923-1924. KATHRYN ELLIS HOOPER Maryton, Va. Behold another of our athletes par excellence. Sportsmanship is her mid- dle name, and she is just the kind of girl everyone wants for a pal. Junior Baseball; Junior Basketball; Senior Baseball Team Captain; Senior Basketball Team; Advertising Committee, Battlefield. Fifty-seven MELLINEE STRAUGHAN HALE Village, Va. jMellinee is whole-souled, big-hearted and generous ; a friend in need, and a friend indeed. That accounts partly for her host of friends at F. T. C. — She is a friend, that accounts for the rest of it. ELINOR HAYES Rollins Fork, Va. Elinor radiates a dry humor, that is contagious. She is efificient, capable, and willing, and everything she does is done well. She is also quite a suc- cessful devotee of art. m PR ■ E H l rv.. |Ir H|, m - t f wdSli ' 1 M ifl MOSS HANFORD Spotsylvania, Va. Ain ' t I the oyster ' s elbow? No! That is indeed typical of Moss. She is so witty, and there is real fun and good fellowship in her wit. Her cheerful grin, tawny bobbed tresses, and laugh- ing eyes, make one immediately char- acterize Moss as Cute. Fifty-eight MILDRED JONES North, Va. ] rildred moves in this turbulent world of ours encompassed in her own sphere of quiet and cahnness. She has a lovely voice, and her musical selec- tions are alwa3 ' s thorougdily enjoved. Senior Singers. MARY JETER Penola, Va. In a crowd one would hardly notice a seemingly quiet, bobbed haired girl, Mary. But outside of a crowd one is immediately impressed by ' her rare good humor and good sense. She is a good student, and an addition to anvone ' s list of friends. HELEN JACKSON Chase City, Va. Helen is small, but her heart is huge. Her inexhaustible fund of good humor, and a pleasant word of greeting for everyone makes her a pal of all of us. We all love you, Helen. ROSE JACKSON Chase City, Va. Carefree should be her name. When- ever you see Rose she is laughing and talking. She is fond of dancing, too. May she joyfully Rowe across life ' s seas. Did vou ever try to argue with Rose? No? Well, do it, -ou ' ll have some fun ! RUBY BLANCHE JOHNSON Waxpool, Va. Have you ever seen Blanche when she wasn ' t willing to lend a helping hand? She is just the kind of girl everyone likes. And she knows Science very well indeed, and what ' s more, she can teach it. MABEL JENKINS Montross, Va. When we think of Mabel we imme- diately think of her glorious voice, and the many times she has furnished us an enjoyable evening. And we also |;hink of her sunny smile, and laughing trown eyes. Big Cabinet, Y. W. C. A.; Junior Twelve; Senior Sing-ers. l.- ' ' • K f .1 1 Sixty-one FRANCES JENNINGS Richmond, Va. Frances is so fond of looking the part of a boy, that she is spoken of as The Sheik of the Hill. She usually has one or two feminine victims on the string. In her case we see that ' ariety is the Spice of Life. Vice-President, Kotillion Klub; Wit Edi- tor, Bullet, 1923-1924; Wit Editor, Battle- field; Junior Baseball Team; Big Cabinet, Y. W. C. A. ROSA KASAKOFF Portsmouth, Va. Our Lady of jMystery. Rosa has the disappearing quality. She has only been with us one year, but she has been with us long enough for tho£e who know her to love her. She is a great success as a teacher. LOTTIE MAY KRITZER Newport News, Va. Do you need help? ' Well, just go to Lottie. You will find her always per- fectly willing to do anything she can for you. When it is time to be serious, or there ' s work to be done, you can de- pend on her. And she is always ready to join in the fun. Sixty-two ESTHER FULCHER KESSLER Newport News, Va. Esther the eccentric ! She is a lass of many moods. Often she laughs con- tag ' iousI_y. Then again she is the prim business girl. And since she has bob- bed her hair. Esther is ahnost a Flap- per. Big Cabinet, Y. W. C. A. MARY KUBE Fredericksburg, Va. Her roommates will tell you that Alary ' s favorite expression is Miat can we do that is exciting? Mary is certainly easy g ' oing, yet she conies through as well as the rest of us. She is like a little brown bird, so timid and shy. LURAY LEWIS Village, Va. She may be small of stature ; but not so of mentality. She does not give voice to her opinions often, but don ' t conclude from that that she hasn ' t any. Many of us would be gratified to get the kind of grades on our work that Luray does. Sixty-three ELIZABETH LAWRENCE Hampton, Va. So this is Betty? No one would be- lieve it, to look at her, but she is the ady who is so muchly much in love. However, she doesn ' t let it bother her too much. She manages to do all she has to do anyway. I wonder what her answer would be, if we said Betty ain ' t love arand? Jl jyli B - l% | ■■ B H H Hl ' .Jl H n 1 v w HRH v HmH mmu 1 DOROTHY LOWDER Newport News, Va. The Senior Class could not have been what it is. without Dot.

Junior Baseball; Junior Basketball; Senior Baseball; Senior Basketball; Junior Track Team; Athletic Editor, Battlefield, 1923-1924. ROSE LUBKOVITZ Portsmouth, Va. Of all the girls in the Senior Class none is dearer to us, or has won more fame for herself than Rose. Her ready wit, friendliness, and good sportsman- ship have made her popular. She ' s a girl no one forgets ! Editor-in-Chief, Battlefield; Treasurer, Athletic Association; Org-anization Editor, Bullet; Junior Twelve; Senior Singers. VIRGINIA LEE Stony Creek, Va. Virginia is The Eternal Feminine , a mixture of sunshine and shadow. She can be serious with the most of us, and gay with the gayest of us. She manages somehow, always to be with those in the lead. Sixty-six LILLIE MOTHERSHEAD Sharps, Va. Lillie, a quiet little maiden, ne er kicks up much fuss ; but she has her own opinions on certain subjects, and vou can ' t change them. She doesn ' t have much to say in class, unless vou attack one of her pet theories then — Beware ! BETTY TEEL MILLER Free Union, Va. Bettv can laugh, and she can talk, and laugli and talk she does.

We ha •e to be modern in this rapid age, And radio speaking is now cjuite the rage ; This class is the best ; we all know that ' s so, ' e ' re telling it now, so the whole world ma} ' know. Though luck was not with them in all of their sports They played a fair game on all of the courts ; On social lines, too, they are always the best. They seem to be more talented than the rest. When they were Juniors, so carefree and bold, They over and over by Seniors were told. Just wait till you reach 3 ' our old Senior year, Then you ' ll have practice teaching to fear. But this job they tackled bravely, without awe; And have made the best teachers that ever you saw. And such fine marks did they pull in the end, That next vear all the schools for them will send. They don ' t like to boast, so pardon me. please. But how can I help it, when everyone sees. So I toot their horn, for through modesty Their horn might remain untooted. you see. On the ninth dav of June thev will sa ' farewell. To return we hope ; but how can we tell ; They hate to be going — as everyone knows ; They love their old school, and that ' s not a pose. The} ' loved this dear school as Juniors so gay ; The} ' loved it as Seniors, in a dignified way ; As loyal alumnae they ' ll love it as well. Until their dying day — that I can tell. Eighty-five Senior Class History I HE briffht, crackling fire burning- cheerily in the wide fireplace shed its soft, crimson glow over the comfortable interior of an old-fashioned living room. Seated in the shadows at one side of the fireplace was a silver-haired old lady, lost in meditation, while she gazed intent!) ' into the glowing embers. Grandmother, — the word was softly spoken. The ladv with silver hair was brought out of her reverie by a light touch on her hand. Looking around she saw the slender, boyish figure of her favorite grand-daughter, a girl of fifteen. Grandma, I couldn ' t sleep. I have been lying awake think- ing about the school I want to go to, after I graduate from high school, and I would like to hear again about your Class at Fred- ericksburg. Pulling a hassock up to the chair of the silver-haired lady, she seated herself, waiting for the dearly-loved tale to unfold itself. And the silver-haired lady began again the story she loved so dearly to tell — the one whose many incidents she had lived in her girlhood, and tonight had seen reflected in the glowing fire. Thus she began : ] Iany 3 ' ears ago, in a quaint little town of Virginia, historic old Fred- ericksburg, there came to the State Teachers College, in the year 1922, one hundred and ninety-six girls, who came from various parts of the state. Some even came from other states. Thej ' were a happy and enthusiastic group, and ready to enter into the life and work of this college with interest and vigor. In time the class became organized, and under the leadership of Anne Virg ' inia Lambert, as president, and Eva Edwards as vice-president, they started out to make a record of achievement and progress. The adjustment to their new environment was naturally a gradual process and they faced many difficulties which confront girls during their first year in college. Home- sickness was one of their greatest foes, but the mind overruled the heart, and they soon began to realize the many joys of school life. How well I remember the first quarter of that Junior year! How it seemed to many of us as if we would never reallv master psychology and how often we wished the human system was not so complex, when we had to become familiar with its various parts, in our hygiene classes. But soon Christmas holidays arrived, and the thrill of going home for a comparatively long stay was not soon forgotten. After we came back the class changed leadership, due to the fact that Virginia failed to return to school. The Ship of ' 24 was without a captain, so Dorothy Lowder was given command. Eighty-six In athletics the battles were hard fought and the scores were close, but the Seniors proved themselves the better and were the victors. The end of the term drew nigh and they began to realize that soon the Seniors would graduate, and the burden of responsibility would be theirs. In compliment therefore to the Class that had been their friend and helper, a reception was given Ijy the Juniors. This was followed closely bv com- mencement. Farewell to the Seniors as hard to say. but in each hand-shake there was an inward ]3ledge to uph(jkl and advance the ideals established bv the Class of ' 23. I ' he lady with the silver hair paused, as if in reflection o er some treas- ured memory, then she continued : In September our girls returned, not the one hundred and ninety-six w.hich had left in June, but one hundred and sixteen. Some had entered the teaching profession, some had taken up other work, and still others had em- barked on the sea of matrimony. A tragedy, however, came into the life of the class at the beginning of the Senior year, when upon returning to school, the sad news came of the death of one of the most beloved members — Permelia White. She was known and loved by all, and her loss was keenly felt by the class. Realizing that a great responsibility rested upon them as Seniors, they started into their work with unlimited interest. The same officers were re- elected to pilot the class. I shall never forget the wonderful spirit they exhibited in every activitv. It was a wonderful class, although defeated in ever} ' branch of athletics ! This marvelous spirit proved to be the saving factor in manv of their difficult battles. To this day I clearly recall the wonderful support they gave their teams, and the pep they always exhibited. Tears were shed, and hearts often filled with discouragement over the various problems of practice teaching. But soon the sun found its way through the clouds, and teaching became a joy, and so the days passed. Throughout the year, many social affairs had their place on the calendar, and the Seniors began to view with dread the time when graduation would take them away from the joyous activities in the school. During the two brief years in the school the class tried to contribute to the progress and advancement of their beloved Alma Mater. Thoug h the road was rocky and many classmates were lost on the way, those who re- mained were linked together in a chain of friendship that can never be broken. With the greatest expectations, and hopes of achievement they started on the Road of Life ' — this Class of ' 24. This, dear, is the end of my story. The girl sat leaning forward, chin in hand, wrapped in a reverie. At these words she raised her head. Grandmother dear, I believe I love your school almost as much as you do. I am so happy to think that it will be my Alma Mater, too, some day. Dorothy Lowder, Class Historian.

It has adapted itself to the increasing complexity of present day living, and has undertaken a wonderful program of work directed to help young women and girls to grow physically, socially, intellectually and spiritually into the finest type of womanhood. In business district, in fac- tory centers, in the small town and in the country, in colleges and universities, in professional schools, in devastated war areas, in the Orient — wherever there is a need for constructive work among women, there will be found a Young Women ' s Christian Association. In co mmon with other student organizations our own Asso- ciation has caught the spirit of this larger program and has ear- nestly endeavored throughout the year to fulfill the aim of the Association — To lead young women to accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior; to develop Christian character; to unite young- women in Bible Study; ancl in Christian service; to interest them in co-operating with the Church and to supplement existing Christian work in school. The various committees have put forth every efifort to live up to their watchword, Service for Others and have ever carried before them the na- tional motto Not By Might Nor By Power But By My Spirit Saith the Lord of Hosts. The Juniors received their first taste of the Y spirit when they were welcomed to the hill top by the girls in blue. Later their minds were further enlightened, their souls further enriched and their bodies further surfeited when they were carried off to the Get Acquainted Party. Again the Y spirit always pre ailed when at sunset hour, vespers were held in the parlor. Under the auspices of the Y. W. the children of Blue Ridge Sanatorium were made happy by well filled stockings at Christmas. Again we have tried to be a help to our fellowmen by contributing to the Student Friendship Fund, also by helping to support a missionary in South America. One of the achievements of the Y. W. this year was the initiation of a Student Hand Book in our school. We hope this will mean much to the classes that are to follow. The largest development of our Y. W. C. A. has been along spiritual lines. Sunday Evening Services have been interesting and beneficial and have contributed much toward making the Y a real vital force on our campus.

The cluls, despite handicaps, has aroused much inter- est and its members are full of enthusiasm for its activities. The Dramatic Club can hardly be mentioned without particular reference to Miss Ethel NeSmith, director and faculty advisor. Out of green ma- terial she has developed a Dramatic Club worthy of note and one to be proud of. The productions presented have been favorably commented upon, many de- claring the performances quite splendid for amateurs. Membership in the club is not optional to the students. From the various departments of the College, girls are chosen who show special histrionic ability. Having laid a solid foundation during the year, there is no doubt that the Dramatic Club will continue to grow and develop in the future and that the pres- ent policy of presenting only standard classics will be the one big element under- lying the success of the Club. One Hundred and Forty-eight Hiking Club Vice-President Hazel Connell President Maggie T.ee Matthews Secretary Ruby Seward One Hundred and Forty-nine •- TTR wtHB  A ss vin.vjAb ' Colors Blue and Gold Motto To the Risht and Forward Maurv, thou most progressive of societies.

Thy evenings devoted to story and song. Hast many a member ' s heart filled with cheer, Although thou art in membership not great. Quality high all thy life thou hast stressed.

Otie Hundred and Fifty-one The Washi7tgton Litej ary Society INCE the historic citv of Freclericksburs closely connected with the man -ho stood for the lite, liberty and advancement of the country, it is altogether fitting that we should call our lit- erary society here at the Fredericksburg Teachers College ths Washington Literary Society. This society is one of the most active and interesting organ- izations on the hill and its members are well represented in school activities. Vc have aniong our number, debaters who 3 would rival Patrick Henry or Edmund Burke. There are those with dramatic ability wdio can act Shakespeare or Shaw with rare interpretation. We also claim those who are talented in the art of music, both vocal and instrumental. The year ' s work started with several interesting pro- grams to attract the attention of the new girls, and from the number of new members we evidently succeeded. One of the best features of the early program was a debate, vitally mterest- ing to every girl of the modern day, Resolved : That the old-fashioned girl is better than the modern girl. And although the old-fashioned girl with her carefully curled hair, her hooped skirt, her numerous frills and ruffles, came out victorious in the debate, we challeng ' e an old-fashioned girl to come to come into one of our meetings and put over a snappier, a more progressive or more interesting program than the modern college girl of our society. The work has moved forward this year with a bound. Splendidly ar- ranged programs have held the interest of the members and solicited their co- operation and support. Probably the most enjoyable part of the program is the social hour — just a few minutes given to lively conversation and to the consuming of daintily prepared refreshments. The general aims of the society are to develop literary appreciation, to train in the art of public speakin g and to encourage individual resourcefulness and originality. With these aims we feel certain that in the coming- years our society will develop and arrive at far greater fame than ever before.

One Hundred and Sixty-one Alumnae Notes HE Student Alumnae Ikiilding still looms large in our minds as the objective for the near future and the goal toward which we are striving. The Governor of ' irginia is very much impressed with the justice of our request for legislative appropriations to match the funds received from the Alumnae for the construction of the Building. However, we cannot hope to get the legislative appropriation vmtil our part of the funds has been secured. The Alumnae, as yet, have not done the full part expected of them. So far we have received pledges and contributions to the amount of about $16,000, and we are encouraged because so many individual Alumnae and Alumnae Chapters are working constant!} ' to increase the fund. Every Alumna is asked to secure or contribute $10.00 for three 3 ' ears.

This year it has been under the efficient management of Miss Ruby Coates, Class ' 21. In its cozy quarters and with its dainty and delicious menus, it attracts many visitors from time to time. It is just the place for good things to eat when you have slept through breakfast, for hot lunches for High School boys and girls, for afternoon sandwiches or ice cream, for birthday parties and social affairs. Thanksgiving Alumnae Dinner The Alumnae in greater numbers than ever before attended the Alumnae Thanksgiving banquet in Richmond which was held this year at Murphy ' s Hotel. The spirit and enthusiasm of the group was splendid as President Chand- ler outlined plans for the growth and de- velopment of our college. Every Alumna should make a special effort to be pres- ent at those annual dinners to renew as- sociations and to show her continued in- terest in her Alma Mater . One Hundred and Sixty-three Honorable Mention Anne Harris, of Richmond, a graduate of this institution, has recently passed the State Bar examination and has been admitted to the practice of law in the State of Virginia. She is now pursuing a law course at T. C. Williams School of Law, Richmond University, and expects to secure her degree in June. Miss Harris is one of the very few women who have been admitted to the bar in Virginia. Her Alma Mater is very proud of this distinction and pre- dicts for her a successful career in her profession. We now have a representative on the Foreign Field in the person of Mrs. James Bear, who was formerly Mar- garet White, Class ' 17. She and Mr. Bear were married last August and sailed in September for Japan, later go- ing to China, where they are in Language School preparatory to their missionary career. Local Chapters Several local chapters have reported various activities of the year. The Fred- ericksburg Chapter, from a basketball game, card party, Christmas sale, two movie benefits and a rummage sale, has raised $200. The Newport News Chapter from a card party and dessert sale realized $57. Richmond City has sent in $2.5 from a card party. Spotsylvania $23.55 from a basketball game, and Richmond-Westmoreland, $13.50. The Northumberland Chapter is offer- ing a silver cup to the high school in that county winning in the oratorical contest preliminary to the State contest at Charlottesville. We Thank You!

One Hundred and Sixty four Leap Year Fun He: Madam, if you please, could I be told What school is this that I behold? Certainly, Sir, I ' ll tell you in few details. It is the State Teachers College for all females. But why all the noise and the awful din? Well, the contest is ready to begin. A contest today? What games do they play? It ' s not exactly a game to be, For thev will shoot with arrows and bows, you see. But where is the target? I see none around, Though I ' ve faithfully searched both sky and ground. Well, the target, you see, is the heart of a man. And over there Cupid will stand. But, Madam, pray tell! he asked in a hurry. Is this in all cases, quite customary? Yes, quite usual up here, For you see it ' s Leap Year. And you know, she said with a wink in her eye, That they grab ever} ' man that ever they spy. Er — er — really, I must go, For duty calls me so — Swiftly the hill he went down. Fairly flying to town. Fearing the consequences, you see. For a wife and six children had he. The girl she laughed till she fairly dropped. When she told the girls, they nearly popped, Fo r she was only a member of the Junior Class And the others, merely sunning themselves on the grass. Now there ' s a moral in this allegory. For after all it ' s not a long story. So men remember, don ' t believe all you hear. For this, you know, is another Leap Year. R. D.

ODE TO SLEEP Oh sleep }-ou are a wonderous thing To help us through our classes ; For when we are most bored to death With sleep our time soon passes.

APOLOGIES TO AUTHOR OF IT WAS MIDNIGHT ON THE OCEAN Peace reigned in the school room, Every child was in a fight. The teaching Seniors were calm and peaceful, The Critic Teachers out of sight. The children were at the board a working. Miss Lacy was giving Johnnie paper, And assigning homework, long and neat. It was ten o ' clock that morning, Not a child was out his seat.

Judg- ing from the answers to the questions, the health of the future generation is assured : 1. The way that germs enter our bodies is by traveling on street cars. 2. To avoid germs, stand alone in a crowd. 3. To prevent the teeth dcaying, wrench them out every morning. 4. To disinfect the throat, gargle with a weak solution of carbolic acid and water.
