ISABEL de VLAMING ‘She is intellectual, and attractive too, If you are with her you can’t be blue” Isabel is a good old sport. She believ- es in taking up everything that is worth while and nothing ever comes up in school but what she is willing to do her part. Isabel has a very lovable disposition, and is always ready to help one out of a difficulty. She is a true musician, and brightens many dark rays by her touch on the piano. We do not know what Isabel is going to do in life, but we do know whatever she does, it will be done well. NELLIE BIRD WOODS “Of surpassing beauty and in the bloom of youth” Nellie Bird is the youngest member of her class, yet itis her leadership the class follows for she is our class president. A sweeter or better disposition is seldom found. To have her friendship is a prize sought by many. Her work throughout high school has been excellent. Her conduct above reproach. Her attendance perfect. Would that we had more such girls. 19

HALLIE VERNON PUGH “Her air, her manner, all who saw admired, courteous tho’ coy, gentle tho’ retired” Hallie carries the heaviest course in the senior class, but she always does her work well. She is never too busy tho’ that she doesn’t find time to read a good nov- el. Give her an interesting book, an easy latin lesson and she is contented. Capable, dependable, true as steel—what more need be said? NANNIE PEARL PERKINS “A peaceful mind by which good deeds are done” Nannie is one of the most friendly girls of our class. She does not make a big differ- ence in some of the class then ignoring others. She is always glad to help anyone if she can, and does it willingly. We may tease her as much as we like, still we find her the same good natured Nannie Pearl. 18

MINNIE LEE WINSTEAD ““A face with gladness ever spread, Soft smiles by human kindness bred” Minnie Lee’s gentle manner has no doubt won for her many friends. She has al- so become very studious and we are sure she will reach her goal. Though very pretty, she has the unusual faculty of not thinking so herself, but leaves it to other people to do the thinking. MARY LOU WINSTEAD “She is as good as the best of them” Mary Lou came to us asa stranger in the ninth grade. Because we did not know her we though of her as a quiet girl who never wanted to join in any fun, but wanted to study all the time. We have been with her for three years, and now find her a good friend, ready for fun and glad to join in all good sport. 20
