You never saw her without that cheery smile and ready word. It's quite characteristic. Edith's combination of fair hair and blue eyes will play havoc with some young man's heart. Really there is nothing more that can be said about Edith, excepting that she has proved a faithful and untiring classmate. Athletic Association, '20, '2I, '22, '23, Glee Club, '23. WILLIAM RICHARDSON SELLERS ...................................... Salem, Virginia nlmlividuality is everywhere to be guarded and honored as the root of all good, 'Tis not for us to know the heart of our classmate, but surely no feminine has yet turned the knob that leads to his affection. His manly and warm heart will be a rare prize for the suc- cessful one. Bill believes in having a good time and is always there also. How can we possibly tell what Bill expects to do when he doesn't talk much? But he can't keep us from seeing his ability on the basket-ball floor. l-le will surely be a star on some college team.
