Janie is a quiet girl. She is no great “mixer” but when she is a friend one more staunch cannot be found. She attends to her business only, and especially in French do her talents shine. Although very quiet, none of us can forget that Janie was a fellow classmate of ’22. She often re- minds us of the old maxim “Speech is silver but silence is golden.” “She learns to live and lives to learn, Taking play and lessons in their turn. ZLLLA RutuH PEARL BRADSHER 1. Member Wilson Literary Society. Pearl has a kind word and a pleasant smile for everyone, yet there is a seriousness about her that is manifested in the character of her work. Her presence stimulates her asso- ciates and commands profound respect and confidence. Her loyalty to the school, her scholarship and her ideals make us believe in her future and whether she lands in a little “backwoods” schoolhouse or whether she becomes a noted character we can readily say, success will be hers. “By faith and endurance we overcome”.

ENS SS SS Edwin, familiarly known as ‘‘Nezar,” is the “particular star’? in the social firmament. He is our clever Art Editor, and besides being gifted in art, he is also a distinguished ladies’ man. But, besides all this, who knows but that back of his sparkling eyes he is dreaming great dreams and cherishing high ideals.

Assistant Business Manager of ‘The Rocket,” ’22. Robert could be characterized as a jolly good tellow among the boys and girls of ‘22. Although not over fond of work, he manages to pass with the majority, much to his credit. All of the girls have found that he is a true and tried lover who can see charms in but “One.” Even yet the mention of Reidsville can make him miss an Algebra problem at the board. Robert is a boy with a bright mind and energetic step—two things that help in a life. ee Lucy’ looks a gallant, dashing beau, and with his looks is well content”. PAGE FOURTEEN AN Se) j ame e Ne QQ.

Yes, he always carries that friendly smile which too often, especially in the school room, breaks out into a hearty laugh and gets “Johnny” into trouble. Clyde’s faults, however, are few. He lives up to the old saying, “work while you work and play while you play”; so we find him, while in school, studiously occupied with his books and he usually attains a high step on the stairway of his studies. Clyde is a true friend and companion too. “Enthusiasm is life lit up and shining”. Mary HatcHETT 1. Member of Wilson Literary Society, ’21. 2. Assistant Business Manager of “The Rocket,” ’22. Mary is a very attractive girl and greatly beloved by all her fellow students. Where- ever this girl is found there is sunshine also. She is modest and very quiet, speaking only when she has something to say. One never sees her idle. She is always faithful to her work and her friends. Though undecided as to her life work, we predict for her a suc- cessful future at whatever she strives to do, for Mary has that talent which never fails to apply itself. “Her ways are ways of pleasantness and all her paths are peace”.

She has a sweet, simple and modest dignity; always smiling beneath her load. As she has gone on through High School with us she has won our best regards and before taking our parting steps we each bestow upon her our hearty wishes of success in the future. A girl of this type does not demand attention but attracts it by her unassuming manner. “Speech is silver but silence is gold”.

Her smiles are the happiest that the “gods” have fashioned and they radiate sunshine every- where. Along with these goes a cheerful fun-loving quality. Eva is just a little “imp” at joking. Out rolls one, and then follows a flood of merry giggles. Yet Eva is serious enough when circumstances re- quire seriousness. She can sit for an “age” courageously combating Vergil. She not only deserves praise on Vergil but on all her studies. If she is small in statue she is in no wise lacking in the “upper-story” but probably has room for a little more “Senior Dignity.” We know happiness and success is in store for you, Eva. Grasp it. “4 happy being, still and bright With something of an angel light”. LA EEN NEL EDWIN - 22 EGERMANUR 9 © O RRs KENNETH HoLMES OAKLEY “SHINE” .

In fact, he may truly be called our class “monkey” for he seems to possess the faculty of making people laugh. However, mere fun is not all there is to Kenneth. He is witty, studious at times, and very clever. Besides this he is an all- round sport, having starred in our basketball activities. In the eyes of the girls “Shine” is a “gem” finely polished. Best of all he possesses that good nature which makes sterling his personality. “4 little nonsense now and then Is relished by the best of men”.

We are proud of him for his school spirit and for the influence he has had among all his classmates. He can always be depended upon to participate in all school activities, but his modesty often conceals the extent of his attainments. Eddie is the kind of boy a school likes to claim. He is the boy that will some day be a leader of men. “The winds and waves are always on the side of the ablest navigators”. MarRIon DEVLAMING . Secretary of the Class. .

How can anyone write anything which will express fully her end- less abilities and talents? She has been the leader of our class from the very beginning and not only is she talented in her work but also in her ability to make people love and admire her. Aside from this she is blessed with a surpassing beauty and is in every sense of the word a true sport, always ready to lend a helping hand to a friend in need. For her we know the Fates have de- creed a successful future and wherever her path lies may she have friends who love and appreciate her as we do. “Keep your face towards the sunshine and the shadows will fall behind”.

Among her other admirable traits one stands out above all others—her frankness. As a chum she is pure sterling. Sincerity is her slogan, and in her you may find all the qualities of a true friend. Here’s to her. May she succeed. “Of me you may write In the blackest of ink I say what I mean And I know what I think”. Ve EDWIN EBERMAN VR DorotHy YOUNGER 1. Junior Play, 721. 2.

Truly “looks are deceiving” for one could never tell by looking at “Dot” that she is one of the best sports in our class. “There is a little bit of devil in every good little girl” and some of us are inclined to think Dorothy’s demureness is only a mask. How- ever, she is genuine and can be depended on at all times. “Not too serious, not too gay, But a jolly good fellow when it comes to play”. PAGE NINETEEN | 'WZ.

Janie is one of those ambitious girls who, regardless of weather and distance, gener- ally finds a way to get to school. Since she is so quiet and modest we have not been able to learn as much about her as we would like. She is regar ded by all as a friend greatly to be desired and we wish her suc- cess as well as happiness in after years. She has worked hard and deserves all she may get. We are sorry she has not had enough work to get her diploma. “Together red hair and temper are said to go, But in this case it is not so”. THomas JULIAN WARREN ae WB 1. Member of Boys Athletic Club, ’22. 2. Member of W. W. L. S.; ’22. On the opening day of our session 1921-°22 an extra Ford ran into our city, A tew minutes later a brisk, but light stepping little fellow came into our midst—a stranger. We soon knew him as our now familiar classmate “Jule” Warren. Though we have not had long acquaintance with Jule we know him to be a staunch friend and true classmate, always obeying the rules of the school. He is very studious, often studying when the other fellow is doing otherwise. Jule possesses an, excellent disposition and often takes part in hearty laughter over a joke that was aimed directly at him. He is sure to maintain a place among those who are “worth while” even though he has not had enough work to give him his diploma. “Good nature is the beauty of the mind and is better than wit”. PAGE TWENTY Class Mascots DARCEY AND ANNIE BRADSHER PAGE TWENTY-ONE Class History Part I On September 6, 1918, as the doors of the Roxboro High School opened, we the nearest you know, rushed in to take possession of the room deserted by the last years Freshmen, fearing lest some one might get there before us. To our delight, we were placed under the supervision of Miss Grace Osborne, one of the sweetest teachers ever. During this year, we, with the rest of the High School formed two literary societies, the E. K. Graham and O’Henry. On St. Valentine Day the O’Henry society entertained the E. K. Graham in the school auditorium. Everyone seemed to have greatly enjoyed this occasion as it was the first real party we had attended that year. Also in this year we joined the athletic clubs and won many games of basketball from teams of nearby towns. Thus gloriously ended our first year. Part [1 We entered into the second year of our work whole-heartedly. It was during this term that we were placed under the care of our honored and much loved Miss Mildred Satterfield. We went to work thinking of the goal before us and our second year slipped away, as most Sophomores, happy and joyfully. PAGE TWENTY-TWO a A AN ‘BA @ Al Bax ,Aa—-a § we Zea AB a: aS ee es Parr On September 5, 1920, we came back in full force as Juniors, with more class spirit than ever before and with the determination to make our class the best in high school for the next two years. With the help of Miss Talbutt, our room teacher for the year, we organized our class. Eddie Perkins was elected President; Edwin Eberman, Treasurer; and Elaine Goode, Secretary. In Febru- ary, with the aid of Miss Goode and Miss Talbutt, we gave our class play, the proceeds of which went to entertain the Seniors and Faculty near the close of school. Part IV With Miss Mildred Satterfield again as our guide, we are now “dignified Seniors” on the “home stretch” of our long four years race, almost ready to grasp those coveted Diplomas hanging alluringly in front of us. At the beginning of the year our former officers were unanimously reelected. However, the first of the year brought a deep regret to all of us, for Elaine, the best class-mate of all, moved to Reidsville leaving us minus a Secretary. Later “your humble scribe” was chosen secretary in her place. Now the class of ’22 bids farewell to the High School that is so dear to the hearts of its members.

A few days after my return to this country I was glancing over the head- lines of a Washington paper when I saw the line, “Woman Senator from North Carolina.” From North Carolina interested me so I read on, “Washington 1s very much excited over the election of Miss Eva Newton as Senator from North Carolina. This shows the great influence of the nation wide suffrage movement. This is the highest honor ever bestowed on a Carolina woman before. Every one is quite sure that Miss Newton will fill her office most successfully. This set me to thinking what had become of all my old classmates. I had not heard: from any of them since I started on my trip over two years ago. | finally decided to save all of the clippings from newspapers, about my old friends, that I could find, and then make a scrap book of them. Daily I scanned the columns of the leading papers and clipped the articles that I found about the old classmates, and pasted them in my book. Before long I had formed a “Memory Book” which contained the following clippings and comments: New York Sportinc NEws “Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth H.

Mrs. Van Renssler, formerly Miss Marion deVlaming, of North Carolina, is the well known society leader of our own city.” Parts GAZETTE “New York fashion seekers will be glad to know that Mme. Annanett (Miss Muzette Winstead) will arrive soon on the Majestic from Paris where she has been studying the styles for the past two seasons. It will be interesting to note that Vogue, Vanity Fair, and Fashionable-Dress use Mme. Annanett as their authority for correct fashions.” New York TRIBUNE “Lord and Lady Gray, of London, are in New York in the interest of the school for specialists which Lady Gray has been instrumental in making possible for the unfortunates of London and the surrounding country. Lady Gray will be better known to New Yorkers as Miss Dorothy Younger, of North Carolina.” SAN Francisco CALL “The worlds record was broken here to-day, when Mr. Robert Featherston, descended from an airplane in a parachute of his own invention from the height of four miles. Crowds await his appearance to-morrow.” WASHINGTON Post “Mr. Jule Warren has just been made head of the Department of Agricul- ture.

It is feared that our town hall has not the capacity to hold the throng which will crowd to hear her address.” WASHINGTON Post “The reunion of Suffragettes will take place here soon next month.

Although the tenth grade is small we have many things to be proud of. ___In the early part of the school year, as soon as the weather got cool and the air became crisp the boys started practicing basketball. At first it was pretty hot for them but they stuck to the job. The tenth grade is very proud to have three bovs who were ready to work. When they organized the team, in order to start to playing, the athletic association chose one of our boys for manager and one for captain of their team. These boys have worked faithfully all the year and have won a great many games at various places. The girls started to practicing basketball soon after the boys. It took a great deal of determination for the girls to get started, as they got very hot and tired. Three of these girls who had determination enough to practice even though thy would suffer from heat are in the tenth grade. We are proud of the fact that the girls who shot the most goals as well as the manager and captain are in our grade. The girls have not played many games, however, they have won half of the few they have played. Late in the fall when the leaves were turning red and golden, and the pump- kins were full grown, the tenth grade made plans to entertain the Senior class at a Halloween party. All plans were made in advance so the afternoon before the party the girls and boys divided in groups to make the necessary preparation. Some went to gather leaves and boughs to help make the auditorium attractive while others did the things which usually make young boys and girls happy. That night we told fortunes, played games, and had plenty of good music. Every member of the tenth grade was well paid when the Seniors said, “This is t he best entertainment the school has had on Halloween night for a long time.” In the heart of winter while the earth was covered with its snow blanket, Mrs. Cunningham came to our school and organized a Safety League. In electing the officers for the league two of our class were chosen as secretary and treasurer. On Friday morning, March the third, the tenth grade girls gave a little enter- tainment in chapel. We were very much pleased when members of the other crades told us how much they enjoyed the exercise. We decided to do something different from the other grades so we wrote the words to our song. It was the first original song to be given in chapel. ; When the great fad for bobbing hair was on and so many girls were bobbing their hair not a single member of our class took up with the fad. The tenth grade has many things to be proud of and we all hope it will continue to have more as time passes, for we want the tenth grade to leave a record any high school would be proud of FRANCES THOMPSON.

Ssiv 10) NVWHSdHaA THIRTY-FIVE PAGI OZ [LZZAA, E A Short Sketch of the Eighth Grade During the Year On September the fifth, nineten hundred and twenty-one, a very green looking set of I reshmen assembled in the eighth grade room with Miss Mabel Goode as teacher. Everything was in an uproar and everybody was walking around, talking and laughing excitedly. In a little while we went to chapel and had services. Then when we came back we arranged our seats, books and classes. At the end of the first month our roll had reached thirty-four. A little later one of these dropped out and right after Christmas Reuben Wrenn developed pneumonia which caused his death the sixth of January. We now have thirty- two. Of this number eight are taking music, and three of the boys and one of the girls play basketball. We have one representative on the Student Council and all of the class is a member of the literary society. When the time came for us to entertain in chapel we gave a play entitled “The Reform Club” and a song “Carry Me Back to Old Virginia” which seemed to be enjoyed very much by everybody. Thus our Freshman year has passed very pleasantly and quickly away. JANTE BurNS. PAGE THIRTY-SIX ZZ; GZZa0 a NOAM . NY i Hh et NYS LITERARY DEPARTMENT Ideal Biography What is biography? Biography 1s that department of literature which treats of the individual lives of men and women; and also a prose narrative detailing the history and unfolding the character of an individual written by another. Though the term biography is modern, that kind of literature is ancient. In the book of Genesis there are biographies, or at least memoirs of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Jacob, Joseph and others. What is ideal biography? If a person is worthy of having his lite written for the world, should not the works treat more of his character and inward feel- ings than of his physical appearances and outward career? Should it not by showing the faults and good qualities of the person inspire its readers? This can not be done by telling the chief events of the persons life, but by telling his good traits or pointing out his faults. If these things are not done the writing ceases to be a biography, except in name, but is a history. “What and how produced was the effect of society on him; what and how produced was his effect on society?” Carlyle says this, when answered, is his opinion of ideal biography. Lots of biographies of noteworthy people may be written but soon for- gotten. Yet an ideal biography may be written of the most undeserving person and survive the ages. Some of the best biographies have been written about persons whose lives have been very uneventful, however, to the average mind good biographies can only be written about persons who have had eventful lives. But to the man who thinks deeply, ideal biography is not the history of an indivi- dual but an unfolding of his character, sh owing his effect on the world, and the worlds effect on him. EpwWIN EBERMAN. PAGE THIRTY-SEVEN 9LZ Characteristics of the Indian The Indian is a character which everyone admires, and fears also. Because of their bravery we admire them and because of their cruelty we fear them. While we ourselves are not acquainted with the character of the Indian, we have read of them when they reigned supreme in the days before they were driven out bythe early settlers-of America; “ We: Haye read) decdstoiuiheim, valor their treachery, their craftiness and their skill, which thrill us all. The Indian race has practically been wiped out in America, but even though we know it is wiser that they should not be allowed to exist, still it seems a shame for so brave a nation to be wiped, so to speak, almost completely out. The Indian is naturally of a religious character. When first discovered by the whites they worshipped a divinity called “Manitou,” and their belief in a hereafter consisted of what they considered heaven, “The Happy Hunting Ground.” That they are superstitious is plainly seen by their manner of burying their hunting implements with them, believing that they would need them in the eherearten.. An Indian trait which we admire above all others is the high regard they held for friendship. For a person who was their friend, they ran any risk, even if death itself was the penalty. If an Indian is once gained as a friend you never lose him. He is ever ready to serve you in the quiet unobtrusive way of an Indian. Yet in this very unobtrusiveness you find the full force of his character. In Coopers, The Last of the Mohicans, he brings out so well this beautiful Indian trait: the friendship between Hawkye, the white scout, and the great Indian chief and his son, Uncas. The scout won this friendship by fair dealings in every way. These three great characters fought and lived side by side until Uncas and his father bravely perished fighting to the last. Another trait of the Indian is his cruelty. Cooper plainly brings this out in “The Last of the Mohicans,” when Magna, the wicked Indian chief, with one or two of his followers is trying to make away with Cora. They are going swiftly up a mountain side pursued by Cora’s rescuers when upon a rocky precipice Cora stopped and declared to Magua that even though he should kill her she would go no further. Magua then tells her to choose between death and becoming his wife. Cora replied that she would die a thousand deaths before she become his wife. Just then the head of the rescuers appear and while Magua is looking at them, one of his companions draws his knife and thrusts it into the bosom of Cora.

LLZLA ZF NA — AA LZ A B EDWIN R-23-Re 5) ae ma Fa EBERMAN VA : The Indian has another great trait—his endurance. ‘This trait is well illus- trated by Cooper in the fight near the cave, when a hostile band of Indians attacked Hawkeye, his Indian comrade, Major Heyward, Alice and Cora. One hostile Indian thinking he could get a better shot climbed a tree, concealing himself in the thick of foliage. He thought no one observed him but in this he was mistaken for Hawkeye had seen him. At once they began a rain of shot upon the Indian but it seemed that he could not be hit. Finally a stray shot hit him and he dropped from the tree but in dropping he caught with both hands a limb and to this he held with the tenacity of a wildcat. Although faint with the loss of blood he still held on. Hawkeye and his companians were astonished at his wonderful en- durance. At last, thoroughly exhausted by now the Indian let go one arm but with the other he still held on to the limb by sheer force of will, until Hawkeye out of pity shot him. The Indian has many outstanding traits both good and bad but it seems to me that his beautiful gift of friendship is unsurpassed by any other. LovuIsE WILBURN.

It was decided that the Council should be composed of a representative from every grade above the fifth to be elected by the grade and one student elected by the entire school with four teachers selected by the faculty. This was organized for the purpose of promoting the best interests of the school. To make plans and suggestions not authoritatively but for the entire student body to act upon. If a grade desires anything for their grade or for the school they are supposed to get their representative to bring it before the Council. in this way the student can help and will help with those things which tend for the betterment of the student and the school. lf the purpose of the Council is carried out it will prove to be a worthwhile organization.

The Philo Althean which is composed of the Freshman and Sophomore classes and the Wilson which is composed of the Junior and Senior Classes. These societies meet twice a month. The purpose of these societies is to develop the speaking qualities in the pupils and to encourage public speaking. By the aid of society work the student gains confidence in speaking before an audience and is not embarrassed when he is called on in public. When we debate it teaches us to compare the different sides on any question and to give good points for our belief on which ever side we may be. The value of a literary society is realized more now than ever before, for all of our colleges require some literary work and it also sends students out better fitted for life. Miss Goode and Miss Leary, who have worked with these societies very faithfully this year, have selected four debaters to debate before the Womans Club in April as a sample of the work done in these Societies.

Music in the School Music has ever been an important factor in the development of the world’s civilization. Pictures of the musical instruments of that day adorn the inner walls of the Egyptian pryamids and the Psalms of David are chanted in churches and cathedrals throughout the christian world to this hour. Graphic account is given in Holy Writ of heavenly voices and the singing of the impressive services of the Tabernacle and King Solomon’s Temple. Music has a wonderful power in moving the will and influencing the conduct of men. Among the ancients the wonderful influence of music for good or ill was recognized. The Grecian philosophers inculcated in the youth of Athens the wonderous power of music, illustrating their teachings by the mythical story of Orpheus, the note of whose lute tamed savage beasts and attracted rocks and stones, of Amphion who built Thebes to the sound of his lyre, and of the sirens whose seductive songs lured unwary mariners to destruction. Nearly a thousand years before the Christian Era Homer asserted that music could arouse the deepest emotions, and his heroic poems were recited by the lords to the accom- paniment of the harp. About the same time musical contests were introduced as an important feature of the Pythian Games. Nothing makes for culture more than music woven into ones being, whether in rendition or only in appreciation. The study of music furnishes us fine metal training as any other subject taught in the schools, developing the powers of attention, discrimination and con- centration and exercising the memory. Music is the smile of education. Music when properly taught gets into the life of boys and girls and stays there into man- hood and woman-hood as does nothing else in the school. PAGE FORTY-SIX Since, therefore, the musical instinct is implanted in our nature and properly developed can be such a powerful influence for good, and since the study of music gives such splendid mental training as does no other one subject, can we afford to leave it out of the course of study? Some one has said—‘‘Let me write the songs of a nation and I care not who writes the laws.” Dr. E. C. Brooks, our Superintendent of Public Instruction must have thought this when he recently placed music as a study in the schools of our State. I hope it will not be long before we have a supervisor of music in our schools and given a place along with English, Latin, French and Mathematics. MARGARET HINES CARLTON. PAGE FORTY-SEVEN The Boys’ Athletic Club The members of the Boys’ Athletic Club of the 1921 term of the Roxboro High School met on the opening day of this session and reorganized. The boys showed more enthusiasm than ever along this line of work and expressed their desires to make the Athletic activities the best that have ever been in the school. And indeed they have lived to see their desires fulfilled. The basketball team has made a splendid record for the R. H. S. and on its heels is the baseball season which the boys hail with pleasure. Superintendent Stalvey has given his much needed support, the Board of Trustees has helped in a financial way and best of all the people of Roxboro have shown their willingness to support the Athletics of the school which they have made for the education of their children. To all these the Club extends its sincere thanks. Good wishes for the club next year.

We have not played as many games as we would like to have because of our hard school work. We opened the season with a game against Houston High School, although we were defeated by a close score and a lucky throw by Houston at the last minute, we can readily say that revenge was ours when we played the return game and won with the score more than tripled in our favor. Due to the interest and hard work on the part of Miss Sykes, our coach, and Frances Thompson, our able manager, we have made a very creditable record.
