Grade Reporter 4 ECHO ANNUAL June, 1921 Senior tElana FRANCES HOYLE Of Girls High School Club Athletic Association, Bas¬ ket Ball Team, ’21, Base Ball Team, ’21. “Her voice was ever low and sweet, an excellent thing in a woman.” Frances can talk all day and be so still about it, seem so dignified and quiet, that she never gets ailed down. They say that the word “lady” is becoming obsolete; it won’t while Frances lives. ELIZABETH TIERNAN Athletic Association, Critic Debating Club ’21, De¬ bating Society 1919-20, Chairman Service Committee, Girls Club 1919-20, Class Historian 1920-21, Basket Ball Team ’21, Critic Class Secretary ’18. “If thou appear untouched by solemn thought, Thy nature is not therefore less divine.” Wherever you see Elizabeth, you see laughing brown eyes. She is very popular, and writes the most thrilling stories! For some undefinablfe reason “Liz” is also extremely fond of writing letters, especially to Durham.” KATHERINE FISHER Girl’s Club, ’21, Marshal, ’20. “Sir, I am a fisher of men.” Katherine’s ever increasing “string” shows that her bait is rather effective, for she has quite a few of the choice men of the lot. Katherine is an all round good sport, and she sure drives a wicked car. MARGARET FULK Girl’s Club “Blue were her eyes as the fairy flax, her cheeks like the dawn of day.” Truly Nature was kind to Margaret in presenting her with such a pretty face. We have all been wor¬ ried for fear she would spoil her beauty by sitting up pouring over her books until dawn of day. June, 1921 ECHO ANNUAL 5 MEATTA BRINGLE Entered 1917; Girls Club. “There was a little girl, and she had a little curl.” Meatta and curls are inseparable. Yet behind that curly head is plenty of sense, and Meatta is one of our best students. She is ever ready to lend a helping hand to a fellow classmate, and is a true friend, when once you know her. FLORA LEE TUCKER Girls Club “None knoAV her but to love her.” Flora Lee is conscientious in her work and friendly to everyone. Consequently everybody likes Flora Lee and finds her a very loving and lovable girl. SARAH WILEY Girls Athletic Association, Marshal, Girls Chorus, Class Vice-president, 1920-21, President of Girls Club in 1920. “She doeth little kindnesses, Which most leave undone, or despise.” If Miss Campbell wants somebody to help in the kitchen, or some poor baffled student is lost in the maze of Latin supines and gerundives-go get Sara. She is a conscientious student and a true friend. RUTH SUMMERSETT Entered 1917; Girls Club, Athletic Association. “So firm, so strong, yet so refined.” Everybody admires Ruth. She has strong convic¬ tions and isn’t afraid to say what she thinks. She is thoughtful of others, and so jolly and good natur- ed that she is always in demand. ECHO ANNUAL June, 1021 6 ELSIE LATTA Entered 1919; Girls Chorus, Girls Athletic Associa¬ tion. “Thy Modesty is a candle to thy merit.” Elsie just came to us last year, but her quiet, unsel¬ fish disposition has won the admiration of all her classmates. She is one of our smartest students, altho she prefers not to make a show of her wisdom. MURTIS MAYNARD Entered 1917, Girls Club, Athletic Assiciation. “Grace and good disposition tend your ladyship.” Murtis works hard and plays hard, and fills up the remaining time sending notes skipping up the aisle. She’s frank and friendly, and a regular good sport. LOIS FOSTER Entered 1917; Girls Club, Athletic Association, Base¬ ball Team, ’21; Volley Ball Team, ’21. “Her voice was ever low and sweet.” Lois is an ambitous and persevering student. She e.iters heartily and willingly into everything she does, and her quiet, optimistic nature makes her a most desirable friend. RUTH LEONARD Entered 1917; Sec., Athletic Association 1919-20, Base Ball Team of ’21, Basket Ball Team of ’21. “Whither thou goest, I will go.” But it is not Naomi, but ' Mary Miller, to whom our Ruth thus speaks. It is even rumored that these two devoted Seniors would rather talk together than read the trilling accounts of AEneas’ adventures in the Underworld. Ruth is a charming companion to all who come in contact with her. June. 1921 ECHO ANNUAL l HILDA NORMAN “As I have found thee honest, live so let me find thee still.” In her Junior year Hilda undertook to play “The Prince of Morrocco” in “Merchant of Venice.” She did it well too, somewhat to our surprise for Hilda is at all times a perfect lady. Duties at home have prevented her being in school in the afternoon but loval membership to Girls Club and Athletic Associa¬ tion proves that her heart has always been with us, and that she belongs to the “Count on me Club.” PEARL RAMSEY Girls Club, Athletic Association, Senior Girls Bas¬ ket Ball Team, Senior Girls Base Ball Team. “And a perfect Pearl was she.” Pearl is a quiet girl but when it comes to making a Ford rattle she certainly can do it. She is very ath¬ letic as is evidenced by her record on the basket ball court and base ball diamond. “Her husbanc will certainly come at nights because of the fear of the arm that weilds the rolling pin.” MARY MILLER Girls Club, Athletic Association, ’21, Girls Base Ball , ’21. “She knew not why for had to speak, but speak she must.” And she spoke, when it comes to talking, Mary has everyone skinned. And gigle, she does the whole day thru! To embarrass Mary one only has to ask her why she stole the chicken foot at Montreal. MARIE AYERS Girls Club, Athletic Association. Marie receives many letters from the University, of which we are very suspicious. If a certain stu¬ dent were not so frequent in his writing, Mai ' ie would make E instead of P. s ECHO ANNUAL June, 1921 FRANCES BRANDIS GLADYS JULIAN Girls Club, Athletic Association. “Whence all this knowledge, hath thy toil ore books consumed the midnight oil.” When anybody wants to know anything they usually go to Frances Brandis for the information. Frances is exempt from all her exams and is the loyal friend of every member of the class. Athletic Association, Joke Editor, Girls Chorus. “And do you ask what game she plays?” A sound resembling a cyclone is heard when Gladys enters the room. She studies and passes on all her work. She also has a good line of bluff that is an asset to her passing. She is very popular among the students. ANNIE LAURIE HUDSON Senior Class Reporter, Girls Club, Athletic Associa¬ tion, Girls Chorus. “1 love her for her smile, her look, her way of speaking gently.” If Annie Laurie dosen’t know it, there is serious doubt as to whether it’s worth knowing. Yet in spite of her knowledge, Annie Laurie likes to have a good time and is the best kind of a “pal.” She is kind hearted and generous “And for bonnie Annie Laurie, we’d lay us down and die.” MARY DAYTON LEONARD Secy. Class, ’20, Vice President Girls Club, ’20-’21, Athletic Association, Girls Chorus. “Modesty is the grace of the soul.” Mary Dayton is a good all-round girl and a favorite among her classmates. We do not quite know wheth¬ er it is the beaury of the beauty of the flowers or something else, which gives Mary Dayton such an affectionate feeling for pink carnations. Jane,1921 ECHO ANNUAL 9 THEDA KLUTTZ President Athletic Association 1920-21, Girls Club, Captain Basket Ball Team. “She’s not afraid to say her say, tho the whole world be against her.” Theda isn’t so very big, but she knows how to handle a Basket Ball Team. She posesses a frank, straight¬ forward disposition which makes her a general fav¬ orite. GLADYS MORGAN Class Poet, Secretary of Senior Class, Vice President of Junior Class, Secretary of Girls Club, Athletic Association. “For she is wise, if I can judge of her, And fair she is, if that mine eyes be true, And true she is, as she hath proved herself.” Gladys is easily one of the best students in the Sen¬ ior Class. She makes E on every study, and is ex empted from all examinations. She never speaks anything but good of anyone. Everybody truly loves Gladys’ modest ways and modest disposition. MAUDE BAUCOM Basket Ball Team. “You. are always too hasty to fire at a touch.” But we said, “She is hasty, she doesn’t mean much.” Maude is among the girl students who are unable to keep away from her Physics book. She says she will pass it off on the next examination. While she is not among her books she is out playing tennis or basket ball. She is one of Miss Campbell’s faith¬ ful standby’s in the kitchen. The sti ' ongest fault with her is that she does not like to talk. HELEN RIDENHOUR “I as larger, better than I thought.” Helen’s highest ambition is to find a man who can reach her level and gaze into her dreamy sky blue eyes. Helen should have gone out for basket ball. 10 ECHO ANNUAL June, 1921 CLAYTIE COLE Girls Club, Chief Marshal, Athletic Association. “Tell You, I liked your looks at very first.” If Claytie would spend as much time studying as she does thinking of boys we are sure she would be a living wonder in books. In spite of this Claytie makes good grades. She is very fond of riding any¬ thing from “ponies” to automobiles. LOUISE YOUNCE Member of Athletic Association. “She hath music in her soul.” That must be true of Louise, for she can extract music from the most extinct piano. She is a good sport in every way, and will oblidge you when you need someone to play for a dance. LOTTIE MAE JULIAN “Say not unto her lest she weep.” Athletic Association. Lottie Mae is very fond of bobbed hair and she is still fonder of writing to Chapel Hill. Everyone loves Lottie Mae for with her blushes and black eyes, who can help it? DE NEALE McKENZIE Athletic Association, Basket Ball. DeNeale never exerts her energy as cheer leader un¬ til “Chicken” gets on the Base Ball field, there she goes full strong. She has won friends in every class with her cheery smile and her winsome spirit. June,1921 ECHO ANNUAL 11 MILDRED WHITAKER Mildred—our most dignified student never hurt her¬ self studying but still she makes a good math stu¬ dent. Mildred is a good friend of all. ANTHONY ENGLISH Base Ball Team, Foot Ball Squad. Nathan Hale, Col. Knowlton. “So, all smile—I shuffle with my blushing face.” “Tony” is one of the kind who keeps everything to himself. He came from Tome last year and we hav¬ en’t had time to find him out. He is usually at home at nights and very seldom comes up street. He is very popular with the girls and the queer part about it is that he seems to stand in with the girl’s mothers. LOUISE MARSH Louise has a pleasing personality and with this she has the favor of all. She is another of the number¬ less who thinks it better to play more and work less, but with all this Louise is very dignified, emphatical¬ ly so! ARNOLD WALSER Hi-Y, Triangular Debator ’ll), ’20, ’21, Vice Presi¬ dent Debating Society, Tennis Club. “How few who pass above him.” Arnold has always been a splended scholar, and few pass above him in lessons. He is always active and smiling, and ready to tell jokes. 12 ECHO ANNUAL June, 1921 WHITE LINKER Hi-Y. In him all generous virtues blend.” White is a fine student, and equally stands near the head of his class, although he carries special deliv¬ ery letters outside of school hours. For a while we wondered why he had so many letters for Bank street—now we understand. PAUL McADAMS “He hrs a true soul for field, river and wood.” Whether Miss Hart forced this soul into Paul or not, we have to learn, but the fact is that Paul is an ex¬ cellent student of Physical Geography. Paul is rath¬ er diffident about reciting on other classes, but we can talk a good deal about things which have nothing to do with the lesson. JULIUS RAGLAND Treasurer Class, Secretary Hi-Y, Class Prophet, Debating Society, Winner Queen’s Daughter’s Medal. 1920. “Ain’t it so ?” “Spooks” is one of our best students. His opinion is considered an authority among students. We wish him luck at the University. EDWIN GREGORY Advertising Manager of Echo, Nathan Hale Play— General Hull, Foot Ball, Captain of Base Ball. “Better late than never.” Ed, our bashful student never lets his alarm clock disturb his forty winks of sleep. His delicate blushes have won many a faint smile from the ladies. In suite of this rosy quality, Ed has shown us some real stuff on the athletic field, and has won the favor of all. June,1921 ECHO ANNUAL 13 DODD BROWN “But who is he with modest looks, and clad in homely russet brown?” Dodd claims the position of the most dignified Sen¬ ior. He is truly of modest looks, and his modesty prevents his acknowledging the good scholarship which is his. Dodd is a capable student, and will get by in any world. TURNER THOMPSON “Who is he that doth so sit and stare.” He is Turner Thompson, and he doth so sit and stare because he has no lessons to get. He carries only a few subjects and manages to get up his assign¬ ments in one of his several study periods. Turner must be a good talker, for he managed to drop Latin when the other boys of the class failed in their at¬ tempt. ROBERT WALKER 1st. treasurer Hi-Y, Marshal, Athletic Club, Captain 2nd. Foot Ball Team, Triangular Debater ’20-’21 Statistician, Tennis Club. “Wild, unwearied to the Strand he struggles.” We are all very fond of Bob and truly believe he will someday live up to the heights of his ambition. Rob puts in his spare time (which is very little) playing golf, visiting the Strand and the Empire Drug Co. and sometimes, though seldom, the girls. DAN REDWINE Joke Editor of the Echo, Hi-Y. “With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come.” Dan is always ready with a joke, and if he is not called down he usually gets more attention than “teacher.” 14 ECHO ANNUAL June, 1921 FRANCIS BELL Hi-Y Club. “Was curiosity a virtue then he would be truly virtuous.” 11A has a perfect attendance record, which is Frank. He is generous with everything, especially with his questions. WALTER WOODSON Base Ball Manager, Football, Circulation Mgr. Echo. “Should have his apt word to excuse himself.” “Babe,” so called because of his added plumpness, is a regular fellow. He is fond of traveling, espe¬ cially to St. Mary’s. “Babe” approves heartily this saying, “all play and no work.” Although it is said he carries more subjects than any other Senior, he studies less. We wish him good luck for he is an all round fellow. CHARLES HEILIG 2nd. Foot Ball Team Advertising Manager Base Ball Team, President Tennis Club, Secretary Debat¬ ing Society, Treasurer Hi-Y, Marshal. “The pen is mightier than the sword.” But Charles doesn’t use a pen all the time, he gener¬ ally prefers his eversharp pencil when he writes his never ceasing notes. He sometimes writes to boys, but he is a real lady-killer because of his good looks (he has the eyes) and his amiable disposition. WILLIAM THOMAS BURKE, JR. Business Manager of Echo, Marshal, Debating So¬ ciety, Cabinet member of Boys High School Club 1918-19. “One’s self must never give way.” Tom makes it a point to get plenty of joy out of life. His greatest horror is that of being a book¬ worm. Nevertheless, he passes his work creditably, and we have no fear about his making good in the business world. As Business Manager of the Echo, he has shown us what he can do. Everybody likes Tom. June,1921 ECHO ANNUAL 15 JACK AUSTIN Joke Editor Echo, Debating Society, Triangular Debator, Class Lawyer. “Three fifths of him genious and the rest sheer fudge.” Jack is surely our “Jack of all trades.” He can do anything from playing a violin to playing hands, and woe to the man who crosses him in debate! Jack possesses plenty of sense and just as much nonsense His quick wit is guaranteed to take the blue out of the bluest “Monday” maid. DE MONTE CRESS “I sit quietly by, I remain faithful.” It’s the old tale of the tortoise who won the race. “Dede” makes no pretense of high scholarship, but at mid-term when many of “our best pupils” found themselves with conditions to pass off, he got by with every subject. His deportment mark has been E throughout the year. Charles Heilig says that means he is exempt on Conduct, so perhaps after commencement he will go out and kill a big one. DAVID JULIAN Editor in Chief of Echo, Foot Ball Squad. “The day, what belongs to the day—at night the party of young fellows, robust, friendly.” When Dave first came to us we felt proud to have one so full of ideas, who did not hesitate to express them. He takes life none too seriously, being always ready to have a good time. He studies enough to pass. Dave is gifted with a pleasing personality and has friends in every class. QUAY BLALOCK Secretary Debating Society. “Tis good will that makes intelligence.” And both of these attributes Quay possesses. His generous unassuming manner, and careful nature, make him many friends everywhere. 16 ECHO ANNUAL June, 1921 ROBERT ELLIS Edt. Mgr. Echo, Base Ball, Foot Ball. “A soul for every enterprise that never sees with terror’s eyes friendship to each and faith and all.” “Rob” posesses wicked eyes and smiles that always holds the ladies spellbound. He is an excellent stu¬ dent and besides this accomplishment he makes an all round athlete. “Rob” is straight forward and honest. Trinity should feel proud of getting our best student. OTIS GODFREY “Smartly attired, countenance smiling and form upright.” Otis is said to be a “lady-killer,” but Mr. Dunn says he speaks French like a Czecho Slovakian. Altho this is Otis’ first year with us, he has become one of us in every way, and we all like him. DONALD ROSS Secretary and Treasurer Tennis Club of ’21, Foot Ball Squad, Debating Society. “He lives to learn in life’s hard school.” “Don” is a straight-forward and steady student. He played on our foot ball squad and held down his position with great credit. He is studying to be a civil engineer and is going to A. and E. next year. It is a mystery to us how he will be able to remain awy from South Fulton St. long enough to go to college. WADE MORGAN “Serene I fold my hands and wait.” Wade is always waiting serenly to tell Mr. Dunn that he hasn’t prepared his French lesson for to-day. However, he seems quite content to wait and never gets anxious if he is not called on. It is always his idea that the less he is noticed the better off he is on the day’s lesson. June, 1921 ECHO ANNUAL 17 LE MONTE CRESS Foot Ball, Base Ball. “Monte.” began in his Senior year talking lots. He was a good French bluffer until woe, that fatal day when he and Mr. Dunn clashed. “Monte” has been our star in football and baseball, too much credit can¬ not be given him for his snappy playing. GEORGE UZZELL “You’d be surprised.” George is such a quiet student that you may think he turns his whole thoughts to his books. He seems to be free from embarassment in every circum¬ stance as many of our students who went on the class picnic know. SPENCER MURPHY Class President, Ex-President Hi-Y, Chief Marshal, Treasurer Athletic Association, Class Lawyer, Elec¬ ted President Debating Society, Triangular Debater 1919-1920, Hi-Y, Foot Ball Squad, Advertising Man¬ ager “Echo.” It might be said of Spencer that his intellect reaches to the skies, for he is by far the tallest of our stu¬ dents. Although “Spence” is very intellectual, he has yet to conquer the all powerful Latin. Being Class President is a habit of his; he has held the office ever since our second year in High School, when the class was first permanently organized. Good luck to our future political leader. WILLIAM LINK “A fair chain enough if thou be the weakest link.” Wanted: To hear a joke, which William hasn’t al¬ ready told. Bill’s our authority on this subject, and sees the funny side of everything. In fact he’s just as good-natured and mischievous as they make them. 18 ECHO ANNUAL June, 1921 They say, “The patient waiter is no loser,” but these boys waited until the last to have their pictures taken, and found that Frank Bell’s portrait had shattered the camera. You’ll understand when you see it. OTIS BROOM Base Ball Team. Otis is one of our best Physics students. He devotes most of his time to his studies and base ball. Some one claims he can see Otis “warming up” with his brother every morning before breakfast. He is sel¬ dom seen with the girls although he has been heard to mention them once or twice while in High School. Otis claims he is going to play outfield for Trinity in the next year or two. We all believe he can do it. GEORGE JARVIS President Hi-Y Club. “Thou art truly a most worthy actor.” George demonstrated that this may be said of him by his portrayal of Colonel Fitzroy in “Nathan Hale,” eclipsing his last years performance in the role of “Shylock” in “The Merchant of Venice.” George does very well in his lessons but Latin seems to “get his goat.” THURSTON WATKINS Vice President Hi-Y Club, Critic of Debating So¬ ciety. “A handful of common sense is worth a bushel of learning.” Thurston is our author and has done a great thing for English literature by his creation of “Bluenose Johnny,’’one of the most marvelous and daring char¬ acters yet presented to the admiring public. He (Thurston, not Johnny) is one of the most popular boys in the Senior Class. He usually can be heard telling some marvelous tale that astonishes his hearers but which they do not swallow. June, 1921 ECHO ANNUAL 19 Senior (ttlasa ©ffirrra President_ Vice-President Secretary _ Treasurer _ Critic _ Spencer Murphy _Sara Wiley -Gladys Morgan -Julius Ragland -Ed Rufty 20 ECHO ANNUAL June, 1921 dlmttor (ttlaaa Sfiatonj Nampa nf dluniora The combination of the three third year sections into one Junior Class, the election of one body of officers, and the cooperation of teachers and stu¬ dents inspired our sixty-four class mem bers with a newer interest that marked the beginning of a pro¬ gressive year. Our constitution was drawn up, the violet chosen for our class flower, and “Le travail conquirt tout” adopted for our class motto. Class meetings were held semi-monthly and at each an interesting pro¬ gram was given, quite often musical. Yet these meetings were not so thrilling as we demanded, so we looked around for adventure, and found “Nathan Hale.” We discovered that there was no limit to the dramatic ability in the class. The play was first presented at the Community Building, and later re¬ peated in Spencer. The repeating of the play is sufficient evidence of its success. A portion of the profits from the play were given to the Parent-Tea¬ cher Association, and the Chinese Relief Fund. Now as we pass from our Junior year we hope that as “dignified Seniors” we may worthily fill the p lace left for us.

It was not long until they were united as the class of 1921, with green and white as colors, and the white l ' ose as class flower. In those early days our rose was merely a bud, shaded with vivid green leaves, but showing signs of unusual promise. This flower was a true symbol of our class; its beauty and perfection lay unre¬ vealed, and needed time for development. In all our proceedings our greeness was evident; often in our meetings we disregarded Parliamentary rules and did not hesitate to reconsider matters already decided upon. Many and original were the opinions we gave, and lengthy our discussions. Our first appearance in public was in May of our freshman year, when, after weeks of hard prac¬ ticing, we were hopelessly defeated in the basket ball tournament. But we were unabashed and went to work in our studies with never failing zest, delv¬ ing deep into the mysteries of Science, and strug¬ gling heroically with the difficulties of Latin. The days flew by, our Freshman days had passed, vacation was over, and we were back at school as Sophomores. The petals of our rose slightly unfolded; it looked confidently up at the out¬ side world; it scorned all beneath it. Its green was a more delicate tint, and its real beauty began to appear. With a feeling of lordly supremacy and elation, the rose lifted high its head, looking down disdainfully upon the smaller flowers nearby. Our class had its allotted share of sophomoric selfconfi¬ dence and unprecedented wisdom. We next tried our skill, in the gentle art of entertaining, and many delighted interclass parties were given. The crowning glory of the Sophomore year was the winning of the trophy cup in the Inter- Class Debate. While we entered enthusiastically into athle¬ tics, we still retained the spirit of earnest students, diligently solving the knottiest problems and care¬ fully concocting remarkable compounds in the lab¬ oratory. As our Junior days approached, our class rose gradually opened wider and wider, the tints became purer, while it exhaled a sweeter and deeper perfume. The triumph of our Junior year was the win¬ ning of the trophy cup in the basket ball tournament. The glorious victory was over the seniors. At last we burst into full beauty. The petals of our rose were so numerous that, for the first time in the history of the Salisbury High, it became nec¬ essary to divide the Senior class into two sections. But in spirit there has been no division, and we have been able to accomplish many worth while things because of our unity. Our class has been noted for its generosity; we have contributed freely to charitable and patri¬ otic causes. During the war we bought Liberty Bonds, War Saving Stamps, and went over the top in the Red Cross drives. We helped to equip the school kitchen, and gave liberally to the school Den- i tist fund. What we feel to be the greatest thing | we have done, the achievement which has caused | our rose to swell with pride, is the publication of the i “ECHO,” the first magazine ever published by the Salisbury High School. Since the days when our rose was a bud, many petals have fallen off and dropped by the wayside. Death called Johnsie Lee Thompson from us in our Sophomore year, marriage wooed Helen Pirie from us during our last vacation, and illness caused Wil¬ liam Peacock to leave us during the last term. Much talent and ability has been developed during our four years in High School. We have grown to appreciate the more serious meanings of life, yet we have found pleasure in the day’s work and in outside activities. We have tried to wear worthily the white rose of loyalty and courtesy, of fair play and unselfishness, and we hope that in the future we will be remembered by the fragrance of our rose, that it will remain a fitting symbol of the class of 1921. ELIZABETH TIERNAN, Historian. June, 1921 ECHO ANNUAL 23 IGaat Will unit Ufcaiaumtt of thr dlaoo of ' 21 We, the members of the class of ’21, being to all outward appearances sound of mind and body, wind and limb, but feeling that we are about to depart from these pleasant surroundings and being charita¬ bly disposed to humanity in general and to the jun¬ ior class in particular, do hereby will and bequeath i i whole and in part the following articles, charac¬ teristics and propensities to the several persons here¬ inafter designated, to be held by them or disposed cf as they shall see fit. 1st. To the world at large we leave, to be mar¬ velled at, an unequaled record for punctuality, inas¬ much as we have achieved in the past school year the extraordinary sum of 313 tardies, exceeding the record of the class of ’20 by a full 300. Edwin Greg¬ ory and Gladys Julian do not wish the part which they played in this magnificent accomplishment to become generally known so we will respect their be¬ coming modesty and refrain from mentioning their achievements in this line. 2nd. To the Junior Class which will next year occu- ry the Senior Class rooms we leave the heating sys- t - m which has so thoroughly taught us the pleasure cf sitting six hours a day in the bracing freshness of temperature of 30 degrees Fahrenheit. 3rd. To next year’s faculty we leave, with much sor¬ row and true regret, William Trotter Peacock, whom though he was forced by illness to tarry yet another year for his diploma, we still regard as a member of the class of ’21. 4th. To the faculty and to our beloved principal, Miss Eleanor Watson, we leave our undying regard and everlasting devotion to repay them in some meas¬ ure for the interest which they have taken in us and the helpful kindness with which they have treated us. 5th. To the whole student body we leave, as a sacred trust, the hope for a New High School building. May it not be in vain as ours was. 6th. To you, Oh Sophomores! We leave all of our honors in athletics and though we hate to say it, the Basketball Loving Cup. 7th. And to you Freshmen we leave the hope that you will have nine months of school next year, as we have had. Pth. To you Juniors who will take up the cares and duties of a Senior next year, we leave all our priv¬ ileges. And lastly we leave to you, The Echo, with faith that under yuor management it may grow in merit, popularity, and circulation. May it be a true E ' -ho, of the best that is in the school. 9t Having disposed fittingly of all the property which we hold in general there remain a few individ¬ ual bequests, to wit: 1st. Daniel Redwine leaves his gentle nature to T ewis Sowers, hoping that the acquiring of a kind and thoughtful nature will prevent Lewis from be¬ coming a bully. 2nd. Walter Woodson leaves his recklesness as an a-tomobile driver to Sidney Jones, trusting that Sidney may hereafter be induced to speed up to fif¬ teen miles an hour and drive closer than ten feet to telephone poles. 3rd. Margaret Fulk leaves her ability to get Mr. Dunn told to Walter Harrell. 4th. Otis Broom leaves his soothing influence on Mr. Dunn to Thomas Conely. 5th. Turner Thompson leaves his wonderful Fr-ench vocabulary and pronunciation to Alston Ramsey. 6th. Robert Ellis leaves a picture of his angelic face indelibly stamped on Jane Rideout’s mind. Furthermore he leaves his large stock of Bandoline to Brooks Sloan. If Brooks will read the labels, he will find complete directions for its use. 7th. Julius Ragland leaves to the school an incom¬ plete and highly decorated set of text books. 8th. Donald Ross leaves his reputation as a deep thinker and a propounder of Momentous interroga¬ tions which expel themselves from a highly devel¬ oped state of mental vacuity to Jack Somers. 9th. George Uzzle leaves his extraordinary high Latin grades to Allie Bernhardt. 10th. Jack Austin bequeathes his long trousers to Robert Suggs, hoping that they will not be too large. Also said Jack Austin leaves to said Robert Suggs a box of Chesterfield cigarettes so that Robert can dispense with his evil smelling pipe. 11th. Arnold Walses leaves his ability to keep his mouth shut to Cletus Sink, trusting that “Dumb Bell” will profit by it and keep himself from being- expelled on account of his loquacity. 12th. Thurston Watkir.s leaves his “ready wit” and his support of “excellent” jokes to David Shuler. 13th. Katherine Fisher leaves her army of close fol¬ lowers (represented in every class in the High School) to Mary Dudley Brown. 14th. Annie Laurie Hudson and Murtis Maynard to Nell Baker and Jane Rideoute do leave their vanity cases containing lip stick, rouge, eyebrow paint and powder. 15th. Furthermore to Hilton Ruth we leave a perma¬ nent free pass across the toll bridge in order that he may reach Linwood more easily and that he may have more money to spend when he reaches there. 16th. Robert Walker and Charles Heilig leave their highly developed “latent” energy to David Shuler and Bill Shuping. We hereby appoint and constitute our good friend, Mr. Parks, our lawful executor to all intents and purposes to execute this, our last will and testament, according to the true intent and meaning of the same and every clause thereof—hereby revoking and de¬ claring null and void any previous will or testament by us made. In witness whereof, we, the members of class of ’21 do hereunto set our hands and seals, this the 4th. day of June, 1921. JACK AUSTIN, Class Lawyer. 24 ECHO ANNUAL June, 1921 Hasp Sail uniat Edwin C.

Last night on the last stroke of twelve, after per¬ sistant use of my knowledge gained through the said correspondence course, I obtained connection with the supernatural. For two hours in a trance, I wrote down the revelations transmitted to me from the psychic world. When I came to myself I found that I had written the following: Ten years will bring about a great change in the lives of the members of the Class of 1921. I see Lee Jackson in his Junior year at college. Lee is an excellent student and has high hopes of graduating in 1932. Within these ten years Claytie Cole’s chief desires will be fulfilled. The first, that she will tip the scales at 120; the second, that she will come into pos¬ session of that worthy young man at Raleigh. Frances Hoyle has become heiress to $900,000 but she has spurned this inheritance and continues to teach school. Gladys Morgan has become a medical missionary to South Africa. Aside from this great work she has some time reserved for the study of music and she has become an accomplished musician. Walter Woodson is just a meddler in local poli¬ tics, and like many others of his kind, seems to give his speeches in length what they lack in depth. George Jarvis appears dressed in a white duck suit and a large sun helmet. He is with his wife, both of whom are missionaries in India. William Peacock will devote himself to developing a certain mining district in Northern Mexico. His exoerience in this field makes his particularly fitted to handle this work for one of America’s largest oil companies. Pennsylvania Station flashes before my eyes. A limousine drives up, a young millionaire jumps out, followed by a young lady. It is Gladys Julian and and her husband. I see a cloud of dust in the distance. I cannot distinguish what it is. It moves nearer, I can see figures. Nearer, nearer, I can almost hear the reg¬ ular cadence of their tread. It is a company of raw army recruits on their morning hike to the parade grounds. I am surprised to see Dodd Brown a Cor¬ poral of the first squad. Hilda Norman has become skilled in legal knowl¬ edge and will obtain a divorce on grounds of contrary political beliefs, after which she will be elected to Congress on the Democratic ticket. Wade Morgan and La Monte Cress are both trav¬ eling salesmen for the Lydia E. Pinkham Company. Sara Wiley, after graduating from college, ac¬ cepts a position as primary teacher in the Salisbury Schools. However, on account of her ability, she steadily rises until she becomes the first woman Supterintendent of Schools in Salisbury. But alas! She resigns her position during her first term in office and marries a young lawyer, who has just been elected to the State Legislature. I see Tony English. Tony is holding down a soft job, regulated by a union card. Along with Tony appears Tom Burke. Tom is a successful manufac¬ turer and owner of several theatres in the State. De Neale McKenzie puzzles me. She seems to be a sort of Jekyll and Hyde combination. First I can see her smiling as usual—and then, I see her per¬ forming the duties of a school marm. Margaret Fulk is nenowned as the reigning blonde beauty of the English capitol. She is the wife of a wealthy English importer. Dave Julian is running a Pigley Wigley in Deca¬ tur, Georgia. Dave is thinking very seriously of marriage. He has been married three years. Arnold Walser’s haughty appearance reveals him as a great diplomat with an elastic conscience and a rubber neck. However, Arnold’s skill in conduct¬ ing negotiations and his tact in the management of affairs have won for him the respect of the nation. On East Council Street I can see a quaint stand with a large electric sign in front of it, “McAdams Thompson.” On peering through the window of the stand I see that Paul and Turner are doing a tre¬ mendous hot-dog business. Ruth Summersett seems to have selected a bus¬ iness career, but nevertheless she has her eye on a certain young merchant and scientific farmer of Row¬ an. Elsie Latta after graduating from Oxford College, accepts a position as a teacher in the Greensboro High School, where she teaches for three years. But she resigns her position and is married to a young physician of Greensboro. William Link is a tall six foot man wearing a loud checked suit and a bristling mustache. He is evi¬ dently a successful theatrical manager. I see Otis Godfrey and Francis Bell walking arm and arm down Main street. They seem to be absorb¬ ed in some business proposition. Otis is a success¬ ful physician of Rowan, while Francis’ dark somber garb reveals his profession. He is China Grove’s most prosperous undertaker. Mary Dayton Leonard and Annie Laurie Hudson are both pedagogues of the Salisbury High School. Ruth Leonard has become the wife of a retired naval officer, who is in the consular service in Brazil. Mildred Whitaker is a splendid young business wom¬ an and was doing special work for the State until she married an electrical engineer from Winston. Ed Rufty is engaged in the textile business in Salisbury and Durham. Ed’s several inventions on textile machinery have done much toward gaining for him his responsible position. Pearl Ramsey is married to a Canadian, who is in some way connected with the diamond industry of Great Britain in Africa. Edwin Gregory on account of his fondness for athletics has become coach of the U. N. C. Football team. Jack Austin is a landlord and farmer. Jack owns a great portion of Rowan, and is doing experimental farm work near the river. Jack is also a banker and doing much for the good of Salisbury and the County. (Continued on page 26) 26 ECHO ANNUAL June, 1921 George Uzzle is a lawyer and a member of the State Legisla¬ ture. Before devoting his time to the practice of law, George was engaged in government work in Alaska. While in the gold¬ fields George chanced to make his fortune. Elizabeth Tiernan is a celebrated authoress and especially ad¬ mired by the people of the South. The demand for her work is so great that in spite of her husband’s objections she is writ¬ ing some additional gems of the Old South, the Old-time Negro, and the Old-time White-folks. Marie Ayers is acquiring a fortune by conducting a tea room in New York City, but she will soon discontinue her business and become the wife of a New Jersey manufacturer. Theda Kluttz. Flora Lee Tucker, Murtis Maynard and Meatta Bringle are all married to Salisbury boys and leading happy married lives. Otis Broom has become a professional baseball player but is engaged in the textile business during his spare time. Lois Foster, after graduating from a business college enters the employment of a Charlotte bank as a stenographer, but she resigns her position and elopes with the son of the bank pres- id_m. Charles Heilig is a successful business man, having under his control two cotton mills, three drug stores, a theatre and a large automobile manufacturing plant at Atlanta. The Heilig car is one of the highest priced cars on the market and is rated as the most beautiful car of America. Catherine Fisher is married to a wealthy fruit grower of Southern California. Louise Younce is a teacher of music in one of the greatest music conservatories in America. Julius Ragland and Daniel Redwine are both Colonels in the Medical Department of the United States Army and are stat¬ ioned in Hawaii. I see Lottie May Julian, a famous American dancer, who has just returned from Paris and a years successful toui of the European capitals. I see Mary Miller, She is clinging to the arm of her fiance, who is the head elevator man of a Greensboro Department Store. Robert Ellis is an Ensign aboard the U. S. S. Idaho of the Pacific fleet. Thurston Watkins has also taken to the sea, anti at present is stationed in the brig at the Hampton Roads Oper¬ ating Base. Maude Baucom has been led to write some sort of historical document which was a failure because it was too intellectual for the public. I see Helen Ridenhour, who, failing to win the man she loved, cured herself by marrying one Mr. Smith, who loved her. Quay Blalock has won a non-transferable ticket to the hall of Fame, having discovered a new element for a certain med¬ icine mixture. Quay has been in the employment of the Tanlac people for nearly nine years. Spencer Murphy is a celebrated journalist and author. He has been editor of several freak publications and ”d“ 8 . A habit to publish his own works. At one time he published Amer- ica ' s funniest, breeziest and prettiest little magazines but has recently abandoned his profession of a journalist and is study¬ ing for the ministry. White Linker after completing several college post-graduate courses and a tour of the world, has settled down, and is an instructor in sociology at the University of North Caiolina. Frances Brandis is the General Manager of a Salisbury bank, she also organized a Trust Company with directors and officers all women. Louise Marsh is connected with some Publishing house of Philadelphia as manager of the advertising department. Last appears De Monte Cress. De Monte is Salisbury’s most successful automobile man. He has built up one of the largest garage businesses in the State and is erecting an automobile manufacturing plant at Charlotte. And the vision faded away. Statistics are figures, so my dictionary says, and if this is the case we have a good many in the class of 1921, some of them are good, though rather large. I tried my best but I couldn’t find how classes grow, they eith¬ er grow tall or long, but anyhow our class is 319 1-2 feet either way, I tried to do that old stunt of leaving off Spencer Mur¬ phy’s and Helen Ridenhour’s height but it wouldn’t work there was to small a number left. I had to go in an awful round¬ about way to get the height of the class but I finally struck this idea, you take Spencer Murphy’s height plus Helen Riden¬ hour’s and multiply Jack Austin’s and divide it by Katherine Fisher’s and substract six inches and you will have the height of the class. Wasn’t it some old fellew called Ponsassinarum that discovered the bridge of sighs, he thought he did something but I wish he would try to figure out class statistics just once. Now for the second proportion : the class weighs 7,281 pounds 6 ounces, 5 pt. and 8 years, but I would thank someone if he would add Ruth Sommersett’s, it’s not exactly my fault that I didn’t put it in though, because my adding machine is just a small one. I never was good at figures, especially when that figure is composed of sixty figures (most of ’em pretty good) but here are a few items of interest, the first one is very interesting since July 1st. We have one case of Redwine (he’s some case too.) We have one ford, she would rather be called Elizabeth Tiernan, but most of us call her Lizzy Tincan. We have some hopes of getting a road to drive our ford on before long, for Paul says he thinks he can build a McAdamized road for her, he’s off trying to run her though. When our Lizzie breaks down we’ve still old Maude that is alright as long as she don’t Balkem. But we do have one faithful fellow in our class, that is Mr. Bell, for further information on this subject I would re¬ fer you to Mr. Austin, he says he has never known the Bell not to ring when he’s a Dayton Mary. We have an awful specimen in our room and we wish Mr. Linker to look up all he can on Darwin to find out if Bill Link is the missing link or not. I know someone wants to know who the prettiest girl is, but they will be forced to look for themselves, life’s too sweet for me to risk it. There are thirty girls in the class, but I can’t afford to risk my life against twenty-nine. If you’ve studied the ANeid you know what trouble Paris caused when he decided that Venus was the prettiest goddess. So it remains for you to choose for yourself. All the dolls will be on sale by the five and ten cent twins, the Cress Brothers, you will get some good bar¬ gains, especially in a few like De Neale McKenzie and Marie Ayres and those who can keep their complexions from wilting. Others will be done up in bunches for five cents a bunch. It’s not so hard to put down the most attractive girl because it comes natural for everyone to like her, her name is rather suggestive also, it is Katherine Fisher, and she makes good her name by being a fisher of men. The most dignified Senior will undoubtedly be disputed, it is between Frences Brandes and Dood Brown. Frances would un¬ doubtedly get it if she did not persist in writing notes to George Jarvis. The tallest Senior as you all know is Mr. Murphy, but it still remains for me to say that Helen couldn’t Ridenhour on any ordinary horse, and that anyone would get thirsty carrying what Thurston Watkins has to walk on, Thurston would get the honor beyond doubt if so much of him wasn’t spread out on the ground. The rest of the qualities that go in the statistics are much dis¬ puted, especially that of the best liar, it would be quite safe to say that one was as good as the other on that. The matter of the most attractive boy lies between Spencer Murphy and Jack Austin. Their heights would attract almost invone. . , . . , . ... T Some Folks say that Tony English is a lady-killer, I guess hat’s about true, it must be the English in him. The smallest person in the room again raises a dispute but t is safe to say that Jack Austin would beat Ruth Summersett iut in the long run. -no, _„ The only remaining thing in the age. the class is 11 — 1 ld, the average age being eighteen years, six months, three veeks, three days, six hours and twenty minutes. Of course most of the girl’s ages was guess work and Lee fackson wouldn’t tell me his but I heard that he went to school vith Mr. Parks in the first grade so I followed up the clue. I lon ' t think it’s quite fair to leave Lee’s age m a [ e „ r a e ° aking his out the average would be 17 mste of 18 1- years.
