MARY NOBLE BURKHEAD, B.L.S. Lexington, X. C. ■ ' Xuble ' by birth, yet nobler by great deeds. Mary Noble is one of those people whose very presence is invigorating. Her energy carries her throngh everything, from the hardest tonght fights on the baslietball field to the dullest grind of cramming for tests, and never leaves her looking otherwise than alert and vigorous. Her intellect and execu- tive ability, moreover, are such that she can turn that energy to nearly anything with equally good results, as you can see by the many honors given her. Once in a while, however, on Sunday nights, this energy hav- ing been rather restrained all day. finds vent ill little antics which — but let us draw the curtain over the rest of the scene. i; f ' , II 9 M; President Sophomore Class, i:il3-14; member Student-body Council, 1913- 141.516; Fire Lieutenant. 1914-15: President Junior Class, 1914-1.5: Joke Editor Loxt-s. iai4-15: member Missionary Cabinet. 1914- ir,; Secretarv Athletic Association. 1914-15: Junior Basketball, 1914-15; Senior Basket- ball, 1915-16: President Senior Class, 1915-16: Eilitor-in-Chief Liiri s. 1915-16, LOUISE DOWl IN, A,B, Warrenton, N. C. Gentle of speech, but absolute rule. Big Dowtin may deceive you by hir saintly appearance, but you would not havr to live in the same building with her very long to discover the humorous side of her disposition. A beacon light she has proved to be to the Peace-ful assembly on class as well as off. Bashfulness formerly was a characteristic of hers, but in the role of President of Student-body she has gained the courage of Napoleon and the eloquence of Patrick Henry. 11 e M; President of Student-body, 1915-16: Treasurer of Y.

RIAH BLOUNT, BXL. Appleton. S. C. Thou art strong and great. Riah hailed from South Carolina and joined this illustrious class in 1915. She has been the shining star of the class in athletics, having won the tennis championship in her .lunior year, besides being the champion .jumper of the basketball team. With this .start, she was chosen president of the Ath- letic Association during the year of ' 15 and IG. She has also been engaged in other lines of activity as well. As a rough-house raiser of the fourth floor, she has few equals. I ' .ut with it all, Riah has managed to always Ijf on the spot, and be there well prepared. 11 B M; Vice-President Home Missionary Society, 1914-15; President Athletic Associ- ation, 1915-16; Basketball, 1914-15-16; Tennis Championship, 1914-15; Treasurer Home Missionary Society, 1915-16. ISLA MITCHELL, B.LL, Yanceyville. N. C. A merry heart goes all the day. Preacher, during her four years sojourn within these Peace-ful walls, has broken all records along the lines of spiritual progress, until she has at last joined the coveted posi- tion of Cabinet member. Her tongue is her greatest w-eapon. for she landed here talking, and I suppose she will leave engaged in the same occupation. Preacher loves every- body and everybody loves Preacher. Yan- ceyville should indeed be proud to claim this product of Peace ' s peaceful iiiHiinncc nut of the chaos and confusion ol lln Imiitli lloor she has brought a quietm- ili:n i lnyoiul comprehension — that is, bpt«i ii ilh ' Imursof 12 and 7; 25 a. m. Don ' t let this nickname of Preacher mislead you. for one day spent at Peace would convince you that she will not be in the pulpit any time soon. - ' 1 ' K ; Vice-President of Irregular Class, 1913-14; Treasurer 2.
