 Shr IFlurrutiup ELIZABETH BARNWELL “A kind heart and a level head.” From the city of by the sea Betty came to us and plunged right into school activities. We have had several complaints from her neighbors saying that the practice on her saxophone is very disturbing. but F. H. S. is satisfied and we predict for her a place in any orchestra or band to which she may apply. Personified sweetness is Betty, and for this she and her “Chawlstawn” lingo have won a permanent place for her in our hearts. WILLIAM BRUNSON Wot too serious, not too gay. but always a jolly good fellow.” “Uncle Willie” decided to stay with us for another term after his graduation, before leaving to Income a Freshie at Carolina. If you do not know this boy, it is your loss. Bill’s humor, good nature, and alertness have never failed him. He is the fortunate possessor of a host of friends. GLADYS BARNES Sweetness and patience crown this gentle maid.”' Our friend from Claussen, or thereabouts, entered E .11. S. almost two years ago. Her favorite song is. “Mindin’ My Bizness.” Friends in her inner circle report she is one real true blue girl. By the way. six subjects seem to be her specialty. No further word need be said of her perseverance and worth. WILLIAM CANNON “Thinking is but an idle waste of thought.” Partake unsparingly of humor, wit, geniality, and integrity. Place in a stirring bowl and stir until thoroughly mixed, and the result is—Bill. Our best wishes to you. Bill; may hard luck follow you all your life and never catch up with you. 22

MATTIE ANTHONY “A smile for all, a greeting glad, A lovable, jolly way she had.” Mattie is our ideal of a sweet-tempered, genial girl. She meets you with a smile and she leaves you with a smile, and we have yet to see her angry. We hope that the “lucky one will he a Florence lad, for we surely would miss her if she went away. BADGER BAKER “Diablito Hermoso.” Badger was a madcap sprite, mischievous and gay, When, upon a summer morn. Amelia crossed his way. Now he’s forgot his merry self, And become a sober elf. BERTHA BAIN “Very wise and attractive is she. What an honor if only half as sensible we’d be.” Although Bertha just came to us this year, she entered into our Class spirit and is truly one of us. She stands well in her classes; her good work is certainly a good recommendation for Hartsville High. She always greets the day (whether gloomy or bright) with a sunny smile. She has made many friends who will be sorry when she must leave them to graduate. Carry our good wishes with you, Bertha, as you launch your bark on the Sea of the Future, for a life of destined success. PAUL BROTHERS ‘7 was his nature to blossom into song.” Paul is the boy of the charming voice who has so often delighted us with songs in chapel and Literary Society. We do not know what college Paul intends to honor, hut wherever lie goes, we predict for him a place in the “Song World.” 21

 a hr JFlnrnititir ELIZABETH BRAY “Sweet personality, Full of rascality. In “Boots we lind one of our most loyal classmates. She is an all-round student and one of our star basketball players during her four years in Florence High! She has the genuine school spirit, for when she herself is not playing, she is on the side lines, cheering her home players on to victory. Although “Sarah has never mentioned bc.ng in love, we know that she has this human characteristic, for she has found the “prince of her dreams in the person of a long, lanky comedian. She is a person of deep thought, for everything is always “Well.” HARVEY CAPPS “It matters not who non or lost, hut how you played the game.” Just a likeable fellow—that's Harvey. But Harvey possesses more than personality. He is a good athlete, considered as one of the best backs in High School circles. This year he was Captain of the Yellow Jackets and his playing was of a spectacular variety. Furman, you gain, where we lose. Here's luck to you, Harvey, may you have as your running mate Fortune, to travel with you through your climb to success. MARGUERITE BOIXEST “Happy and carefree, jolly and szveet, She is a dear from her head to her feet Marguerite is one of our pleasure-loving Seniors. She is very musical and often displays her vocal talent in singing class. She is a true lover of nature, but prefers the song of the Sparrow best. WILLIAM COOPER “He drinks deep of the Pierian Spring 1' Bill joined our ranks four years ago and has since been a worthy recipient of our fortunes. Bill is a good athlete, and Florence High will keenly feel his absence. He has received mention for All-State teams in both football and baseball. His athletic work does not overbalance his scholastic abilities. Again Furman gains, and we lose.
