Samuel Cornelius Booker He ' s little hut he ' s wise, He ' s a corher for his size. Well versed in Latin and Frencli, Sara ' s acliievements are unusual for a class baby. He is a hard worker but we sometimes fear tbat his hard work is stimulated by the success of his rival, Worth. Du NHAM Worth Boyette Although vanquished, he could argue still. Junior Basketball (3); Football (4); Basketball (4) • Baseball (4) ; Dramatic Club (4) ; President of Class (4); Honorary member of The Eagle Staff. Hats off to our president! He is a good natured boy and IS noted for beins very studious. Although he is rather frolicsome, to know him is 1o like him, and we feel sure he will stay in the memory of the class of ' 25 for years to come. John Mathew Cai dill ■■None hut himself can he his parallel. Basketball (1), (2), (3), (4); Baseball (4). John is an outstanding basketball star and equally as good a student and supporter of the class of ' 2.5. John is one of those per.sons of whom it may be truthfully said, the more you know of him, the better you like him. Lilly Beatrice Daughtery ■•She is gentle and kind, thoughtful in mind. The class of ' 25 is fortunate in having among its members several students of a calm and reserved nature. Lilly is one of these. She has been a good student, a lo. al companion, and a faithful worker. Her memory will ever linger in the hearts of her classmates and friends. Annie Leo Ennis She holds the eel of knowledge by the tail. ' ' Dramatic Club (4); Glee Club (4); Class Prophetess (4); Girls ' Athletic Association (4). Tf you wish to ( onverse in French or debate on historical events, go to Leo, but be prepared vo come away defeated. Her educational forts are strongly barricaded with argument, and are unconquerable. How- ever she realizes that books aren ' t all but that jokes have their part in life as is indicated by her nickname Joker. Page Eighteen

I Carlton Adams He ' s an upright, downright honest hoy Although Carlton has been with us only two yeai ' S he has been a great addition to our class. His pleasant smile is always helpful, and he knows not the word no when you ask him for a helping hand. Julius Marvin Adams He ivho labors conquers Football (3), (4); Baseball (3), (4); Basketball (4). Always quiet and reserved — that ' s Marvin. Always calm and studious — that ' s Marvin. He has two ad- mirable traits, the art of saying nothing with immense seriousness and being irresistibly droll in expressing himself. We are sure that one with these qualities will make a success in life. Sarah Lucile Adams Whistling, laughing, or singing a song, happy and content, she jogs aUjng. Music club (1), (2), (3), (4). If it ' s primping — it ' s Sarah; If it ' s flirting — it ' s Sarah; If it ' s playing — it ' s Sarah ; If it ' s with Tom — it ' s .still Sarah. But if it ' s chewing — It ' s Goat. Benjamin Alton Baker His virtues are many-too many to name. In rain or in shine, Ben is ahvays the same. Dramatic Club (4); Class Song Bird (4). Ben is one of the mo.st dependable boys in our class. Although inclined to be mischievous he can outstrip any owl in solemnity when the occasion calls for it. His ability to write poems and songs is unusual and unless he yields to all those endearing young charms too early, we expect great things from him. Maude Blackman Speech is .silver but silence is gold. Variety is the spice of life. Maude has a queer mix- ture of seriousness, fun, capability, conscientiousness and likeableness. With such qualities we know that Maude will always be a member of whom the class will be proud. She ranks well in the esteem of her teachers because she has learned that silence is the art of conversation. Page Seventeen

Rose Grantham Another proof of the old adage that Precious things come in small packages. Glee Club (3), (4); Coacb of Dramatic Club (4); Treasurer of Class (4) ; Girls ' Athletic Association. Rose has all the qualities of her namesalje besides many more. She is quiet and studious though not a book worm because she ' s always ready for any fun. She is inclined to be mischievous but is so innocent looking that she never gets caught. Rose is one of our most popular girls. !N oLiA Gertrtde Gtrly Laugh and the world laughes with you. Weej} and you weep alone. The Kahle Staff (4); Dramatic Club. Nolia is just a good all-round girl. She is a good student, but finds plenty of time for fun. She some- times seems to be the imp of Satin, but is only full of mischief. Her heart is as kind as it is mirthful. Edna May Hildebrand Her smiles show her happiness. Her friends, her popularity. The EA(iLE staff (4); Advertising manager of Draniatir Club (4). Edna is splendid. She is a good sport and enjoys everything. Slie wears a smile the whole day through. She is a lover of art and her artistic ability is .shown throughout our annual. , James Zachariah Hill Truth from his lips prevail with double sway. Basketball (2), (3); Baseball (2), (3); Glee Club (4); Dramatic Club (4). James is an all-round good natured boy. He, be.udes being Advertising Manager for The Eagle is one of our star basketball players. His droll way of e.xpress- ing himself is very amusing and he is well liked by all of us. Myra Kelly Hill For she is jes ' the quiet kind whose nature ' s never -vary, like streams that keep a summer mind, snow hid in January. Myra has very little to say but when she does speak it is worth listening to. She has red hair yet the red temper so often accompanying this is lacking in Myra. She has a keen sense of humor, a dependable nature, and a likeable disposition. Page Nineteen
