12 The Scribbler LILLIE MAE COX ‘7 awoke one morning and found myself famous.” Lillie Mae believes that “silence is golden,” and that talkers are no good doers.” Follow this and some day you will he as successful as she is. RUSSELL CLARY “A cheerful grin that always wins.” “Pete” is the leading member in anything pertaining to ladies and the omission of classroom work. He also has the record for inventing more original excuses for missing classes. Being good-natured, he is liked by those who know him best. J. E. CL1ATT “Better late than never.” Somehow, his lessons act as an anaesthetic over J. E. Continually during recitation his teacher appoints a committee of one to arouse him from his slumber. In basketball he was highly responsible for the opponents’ low score. ELIAZBETH CREWS You always see Elizabeth riding around, and she never passes on by, but swings open the door and yells, “Hop in. if you want to ride. We always do want to ride with Elizabeth, she’s such an entertaining companion. Elizabeth, one of the noisiest and brightest girls in the class, is a born leader. She doesn’t believe in studying hard, but she’s never behind in her work. Nothing ever worries Elizabeth, because she knows she can devise some way to get out of any difficulty. “Lizzie’s” ingenious, all right!

The Scribbler 11 BETH CECIL Beth is Frances Glenn’s ‘‘Boswell.” They walk together, talk together, sit together, laugh together, eat together. We often envy them their delightful friendship. Beth strolls leisurely along the halls with a bag of potato chips in one hand and a sack of peanuts in the other, and generously shares with all whom she meets. She’s a shy and bashful schoolgirl. hut not so shy and bashful as she generally appears. ESTELLE COHEN ‘‘Great thoughts, great feelings come to her like instincts, unawares.” Those black eyes behind Estelle's tortoise-shells” are sometimes dancing, often dreamy, for they reflect the soul of a true poet. Life to Estelle is just one wonder after another that can and must he transferred into metrical, beautiful verse. Estelle may have “day dreams.” hut they don’t keep her from being as lively as a cricket and one of the best “backers” a school ever had! We feel that Winthrop will receive a gem next year, when Estelle enters the Freshman class. LOUIS COHEN “A little learning is a dangerous thing.” We know only Louis’ mischief and wit. We would be acquainted with his sentiments, hut his sesquipedalian expressions prevent it. His ambition is to compile a lexicon and to make woman suffrage a success. MARY COGGINS Quiet, but industrious.” Mary works the hard problems when the others shirk them. Her friends will not forget the valuable help she has given them.

The Scribbler 13 PERRIN DARGAN “Trouble has to be started, so why not by me?” “Fat” has shown himself a good asset to the school. His athletic ability lias earned for him his football and basketball blocks. He is undoubtedly the jolliest member of the Senior class. SARAH DODGEN Sarah's a radiant, bright, joyous streak of sunlight, from the golden sheen of her hair to the glint of gold in her smile. Can’t you just hear Sarah’s pet chuckle now? Sarah’s brim full of fun and pep and as light as a feather on her feet. She's the spirit of grace and sparkling wit at a dance and everywhere. Sarah’s one of the few members of the class who has long hair, but if we could look as pretty as she does, we wouldn’t bob ours cither. Her motto is, “Why should I worry; worry never made men great!” AGNES DRUMMOND “Of wakitty books, there is no end, and much study is a weariness of the flesh.” She studies not overmuch, but yet she is one of the best pupils in the class, carefree, friendly, cheerful. Those are the adjectives which apply to her. EDWARD EDWARDS “I ha ne’er seen the wine I could no’ drink. The ’bacco I couldna’ smoke, Nor the lass I couldna’ kiss.” “Ed” has helped High School to victory in many of her battles on the old gridiron. He is a man of ability and character, and everyone knows that he will succeed in everything that he will undertake to do.
