W. H. S. j THE TA T L E H 19 23 MZLDRED DENNIS BRITTINGHAM (“Milly”) Parsonsburg, Md. (i A together too good for thii wicked world.’ ' Milly is one of our class brunettes and she qu.te deserves the name. Miily is very at¬ tract. e to the opposite sex. She has many adm.rers In her city and she has much to tell her fidends about what “he” did or what “ he 1 said. A rumor has been going about that if Mil¬ dred were not in the Senior Class she would leave us. We surely do congratulate the one who gets Mildred for a wife because we know she will make a good little house¬ keeper. Thing she can’t do—Be a blonde. Known by—Her admirers. Member of D. E. C. IRA FULTON CATLIN (“Fult”) Salisbury. Md. ‘ Silence is deep as eternity , as time. speech as shallow One would never think that Fulton was so bright just to see him, for a boy more quiet or more subdued cannot be found. “Fult” is always attentive and perhaps that s where h ' s genius lies, for what gift is better than a good 1 stener? In English, especially, does he shine and he spurs on many faltering students to keep up with him. When the class wants to be especially brilliant we al¬ ways look to Fulton to answer the hardest questions. We are all back of you “ Fult,” so go ahead. Thing he can’t do—Be boisterous. Known bv—Brief case. Member of the E. E. C. Page Twenty six

W . li . S . T H E TA T L E R 19 23 IRMA VIRGINIA BREWINGTON (“Duck”) Shad Point, Md. “Heaven helps him who helps himself.” Irma is a very busy person. Very often she is seen walking around the school with her knitting, but don’t think for a minute that she lets this interfere with her lessons, never! She only knits when she has nothing else to do. Irma very seldom smiles and she often remarks that she tries so hard to keep the frown off her face, but “Duck” does not always succeed. However, this does not matter, we think very much of her anyway, for we know some day Irma will be all smiles. We fell sure that whatever she attempts in the business world, she will succeed and we wish her luck. Thing she can’t do—Smile. Known by—Frown. Member of E. E. C. LULA MAE BRITTINGHAM (“Lu”) Pittsville, Md. “If eyes were made for seeing, then beauty has its own excuse for being.” Lula is one of the most interesting mem¬ bers of our class. She has a sweet dispo¬ sition and is always laughing. She possesses soft blue eyes and these she uses in vamping the opposite sex. There is always someone who has to be the victim of teasing and in our class this unfor¬ tunate place falls to “ Lu. ” But neverth- less she seems to come through these tor¬ ments smiling and is none the worse for them. However Lula is a diligent worker and we shall long remember her comradeship. Thing she can’t do—Stop smiling. Known by—Vamp ing eyes. Member of D. E. C. Page Twenty-five

THE TAT LEE 19 23 w . h. a. WILLIAM JAMES CHATHAM (‘ ‘ Bill ’ ' ) Salisbury, Md. “0, wad some power the gif tie give us, To see ourselves as ithers see us. How we, with lesser ability, envy 4 Bill ’ when he takes a speed test, for he always makes forty or more words per minute. When Miss Porter gives us new matter in Shorthand, “Bill” never flinches, but keeps his pen moving, though he often remarks that his pen point is getting very warm. Some day we know that “Bill” will get the World’s Championship from Hossfield for typing, and we all join in wishing him suc¬ cess. t Thing he can’t do—Type slow. Known by—Politeness? ? MARY AGNES CORDREY (“Jimmy”) Salisbury, Md. “J never did repent for being mischievious, Nor shall not now . ” Mary tries to be good but if you want to know the results ask Miss Straughn. She can be seen anytime chasing someone around the Commerical room. Mary can start to Church but if she meets a Ford her course is broken, for away spins Mary and the Ford. (Ask her who it is.) ,For two weeks Mary worked for C. R. Dish- aroon as stenographer, and from all she told us when she came back, we judge she re¬ ceived all the experience necessary to make her successful when she gets to be part of the business world. Known by—Her size. Thing she can’t do—Keep still. Member of A. E. C. Page Twenty-seven
