LoLA F. MARTIN Lola is a very wise looking young person. She is an especially hard worker in Chem- istry Laboratory. We do not know what we would do without Lola to ask questions in class in order to get Mr. Baker to put on' a written lesson. We are always fond of her when she rings the class bells too soon. We expect Lola to be a great Botonist Cespecially in Bugsj, some day. Any way we wish her success in whatever she under- takes. ESTHER HINES Her skin is like the lilies, Her cya: are like the skies, H er cheeks are pink as roses But oh! her smiles tcll lies. Esther is mischievous and likes fun. She joined us from Glendale in our Junior year. She is a regular fish when it comes to swim- ming since it is her special hobby. One problem she cannot solve in arithmetic is, why Mr. Baker calls her Elsie instead of Esther. She expects to be a business woman, probably making Vests I

WIS THELMA GOODMAN IITUQJP With maimcr quite haughty, This maid is quite uaughtyg D Light is her hair and hor face is qmtc fair. Tag is a good sport and has one of the best dispositions in the class, for she never loses her temper. She is a diligent student as is shown by the good grades she makes. Besides this she is the star giggler of the class and truly believes in the old adage, Laugh and the world laughs with you. She is rightfully named Tag for she is always asking, Where is Lola ? We feel sure Thelma will make a great success some day, especially teaching a school-of fish. RUBY DURRETT As sweet a girl as one could meet. Ruby is a very quiet little girl but she possesses a will of her own. When she talks she usually gives valuable information. Ruby joined our class in the Junior year from Glendale. We are sure she is a valuable addition to our class. One of her favorite pastimes is seeking Bates. . Home Economics has been one of Ruby's favorite studies. She was one of the few to win a prize on cooking last year. We expect she will teach for awhile and then --?

Wh RUTH MURPHY Where is Ruth? Some logical thinker said, Where is the mirror? But we do not blame Ruth, certainly a mirror could hardly be put to a happier use-at least so think her buddies, and why not? Ruth was declared our most popular student by actual vote. She is not quite so radical in social enjoyment, not so fond of late hours and extreme excitement-but let a community enthusiast tell it, only the experienced can express the more subtle charm. Ruth has represented our school at Charlottesville for three years in a very creditable manner. We believe she will be even more successful in the home of some lucky man. MARION BERKELEY FUSSELL Through the four long years that Berkeley has been with us he has proven himself a true friend and classmate. If there is any- thing to be done we may depend on Berkeley for he is always ready to do his share to make things a success. His interest in athletics is shown by the fact that he is president of the Athletic Association, cap- tain of the Basketball Team and for three years has won monograms. He is a shining star in Chemistry and very experienced in causing explosions. We feel sure that some day Berk may be a great orator or lawyer, but whatever it may be we predict that he will make a great success.
