 CARL HUMPHRIES “His very foot has music in it . Is he comes u the stairs.'1 Though lie’s been with us but two short years, he has made himself a valuable member of his class and an asset to the school. Carl and his harmonica form a familiar sight around the school. He has delighted his audiences in chapel and in literary society, and even on the steps at dinner hour he may he seen charming members of both sexes. STERLING JOHNSON “Itch ie “Personality is the thing that towers over everything else in the world.” Here’s to the most versatile member of F. H. S! He is truly a Jack of all trades.” His theatrical success began with “Old King Cole’’ and now no play seems complete without Sterling as the handsome young American. Sterling was a flashy and fast back on our football team. He has been rated by a number as one of the best basket-ball players in the state. He is popular with everyone and we could.write forever—but just ask the girls—they’ll tell you the rest. EFFIE JONES “Queen Pose of the rosebud garden of girls” Here's to our school beauty! When we think about it. Effic does most everything. She sang and danced straight to our hearts in Miss Cherry Blossom.” When F. H. S. says farewell to her. we wonder if there is not the dire possibility of V. S. A. losing her, too. because more than once we’ve seen those blue eyes looking fondly towards “Canada.”

 BATSON HEWITT “A scholar, yes, a genius, yes, and more, a gentleman ” As a baseball captain and schoolmate, Batson is “there with the goods.” In athletics he has shone brilliantly, in his studies he is unsurpassed. In fact, he has “saved more than one poor geometry pupil. We are all watching Batson and we know that some day he will put Mechanicsville” on the map. Good bye, “Wade Hampton.” MILDRED HINES “She can dance, she can sing She can do most anything The above describes Mildred in every detail. Frivolous, fun-loving and fickle we’ll admit, but a good sport with a ready smile which endears her to all of us. We wonder if she intends to pursue a career (?) or go to live in Darlington. Anyway. we’re always with you, Mildred 1 CATHERINE HUDGINS “Cat” “Little bit of a lady. Isn't she sweet and wise?” “Purple and Gold” is glad to claim this brown-eyed smiling Miss. Her gentle manner and quiet appearance have endeared her to us all. “Cat” would make a precious Chinese doll, but she’ll probably be a housewife who doesn’t have to bake her own bread. As a guard on the Senior team, she has been the “Waterloo” of more than one forward.

4 ' i 1 vil LORENA KILLEN “Quiet in appearance with motives unknown” Lorena is quiet, gentle and reserved, but willing to do her part, no matter how hard the task. Although she has not been with us long she has won the admiration of her .teachers by persistent application to her studies, and the love of friends because of her genial mood and heart of gold. THELMA KING “True happiness consists not in the multitude of friends But in the worth and choice” Thelma has an important place in our orchestra. Her instrument is one of the most well known—a saxophone. A dependable pal and willing worker, that is Thelma. LORENE LYNCH “A maiden never hold ” Lorene and her Buick have driven straight into our hearts. Seldom do you see her without a car packed full of happy people. Her generosity and genial nature result in a smile which bewitches those who come in contact with her.
