THE OAK LEAF, 1922 V •. ♦ 1 Milk® KMfe? Seni or Class Juanita Inez Webb “ The mildest manners and the gentlest heart Athenian Literary Society. Quiet, serene and composed, ‘Venus is one of our few really dignified seniors. As a pianist she is a marvel, possessing a color and delicacy of touch which, if she continues her study in music, will lead her to a promising future. Further noted as one of the best mathematicians and scientists in the class. Thomas Andrew Lawrence When there ' s a committee — there ' s a nerv one evert; minute , — It isn ' t a real committee if Tom isn’t in it. Athenian Literary Society; Vice-President Class, ' 18-’19. Why is Tom invariably selected to serve on committees? Simply because he possesses those qualities which so well fit hint for this place. Very quiet, not given to much talking, even in Mr. McConnell’s class. Studious and always punctual, not having been absent or tardy for four long years. Mae Myrtle Wheeling A shy, demure young person rvith a quiet, mouse-lilfe air; Unless you hear her name called, you scarcely fyno n she ' s there. Athenian Literary Society. I his is a young lady whom we often looked up to with admiration and awe — longing to imitate her firm and steadfast walk in the paths of knowledge. Her earnest application to duty as well as her mathematical ability, have won her the respect of the faculty, and her general cheerfulness the love of her fellow students. Page tmenly-seVen

THE OAK LEAF, 1922 Senior Class Myrtle Frances Reed The way to gain a friend is to be one Athenian Literary Society; Jolly Set. Myrtle came lo us In our junior year, entering heartily into all school activities, and has contributed much to the merriment of the class. Never will we forget her almost daily argument with Mr. McConnell concerning geometry; her breathless arrival at 12:50 p. m. and innocent inquiry: Am I late? together with her love for anything entertaining or romantic — well, in fact, we won t forget Myrtle at all. Glenn Reich McLeod “ Brilliant and handsome is our class dude. And you ' ll always find him in a gay mood. Athenian Literary Society. How does Glenn manage to keep so speckless and spotless? When all the rest of the class are weaiy, disheveled and grimy, Glenn, much to our envy, emerges from the heap with his usual smile. Despite his neat appearance, he is one of our most loyal fellow students and has a wide circle of friends through- out the entire school. Margaret Pauline Scott Of disposition soft and sweet. Is entertaining yet discreet. A girl you’re always glad to meet , — That ' s Pauline. Athenian Literary Society. “Among the good there is the best,” so it is with Pauline. We seldom think of her that we do not instantly connect with her the missing link — Nina Linkous. Her quiet and amiable disposition and faithfulness as a friend will serve her well when she lakes up her walk of life. Page twenty-six

Another student who is about to close the interesting chapter of her life, entitled Days at R. H. S. is Malgia. As a member of 22 she has proved herself a faithful worker and a loyal classmate. One of those few earnest seniors who have attempted to win for our class a good name in the eyes of the faculty. Rufus Franklin Morgan Night after night he sal and bleared his eyes with bool(s. Athenian Literary Society. A very bashful and shy young fellow came to us two years ago with high ambitions and undaunted courage. He thinks twice before he speaks, and then his words are slow, but he is noted for his level head. At an early dale the teachers, as well as his classmates, spotted him as a student always prepared. His only objectionable feature is that he is a terrible flirt. Page twenty-eight
