WILLIAM SHUEY “Too much study is a weariness of the flesh.” Member of Lanier Literary Society; Captain of Baseball Team. If anybody would call for William we are afraid “Billy” wouldn’t show up. But just say “Billy,” and he is there and ready to go. He is not unacquainted with work, but when time to play comes—well, he knows how. If his high school days predetermines future success, Billy’s happiness is certain. ANNA ROSENTHAL “Perseverance conquereth all things.” Member of Lanier Literary Society; Social Editor of THE WILSONIAN. Anna is one of the most brilliant students of the class of ’26. Quiet, unassuming, effh- cient, and exact, she has gone about her work of making excellent grades. Anna goes to Columbia University from here, and we can predict for her success in every en- deavor. LUCYSTAX LOR “By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes.” Vice-President of Poe Literary Soctety; Business Manager of WIiLSONIAN; Sec- retary of Eta Sigma; Cheer Leader. If a girl’s position in the world was judged by the number of friends she has, such would certainly stand upon the heights. We suppose Lucy comes to school to gain knowledge, which she does very creditably. In the classroom her record is good, on the platform as a debater it is bet- ter, and as an actress she is best. We feel sure that Lucy will succeed in a manner which few have the ability to do. MARIE TAYLOR “A thing of beauty is a joy forever.” Treasurer of Poe Literary Society; Eta Sigma. Cheerfulness, attractiveness, and good na- ture are only a few of Marie’s many good qualities, which have won for her a host of friends. Marie’s willingness to go in for anything makes everyone love her, and what is better than to be loved and admired? Marie possesses a contagious smile and pleasant disposition, and a faculty for achievement. In the future may good luck and happiness be yours.

my CLAUDINE MYERS “Twinkle, twinkle, little star.” President Lanier Literary Society; Assist- ant Business Manager of WILsonian ; Eta Sigma. In Claudine, generally known as “Dean,’ we find the unusual combination: scholastic ability, common sense, and good fellowship. “Dean” possesses such an attractive and magnetic personality that she is loved and admired by everyone. There is no neces- sity of a prophecy in regard to her future success. ’ ANNIE NEWMAN “With malice towards none and charity for all.” Member Lanter Literary Society. Here is one who still holds to the tradi- tion that long hair is best. With her long curls, her quiet, dignified manner, Annie might have come to us from the years gone by. She has, however, prepared herself for the business world, and we wish her great success. ELIZABETH ROBSON “Gentle of speech, beneficient of mind.” Treasurer of Lamer Literary Society; Art Editor of WILSONIAN. Elizabeth is blessed with the faculty of making friends, for few care to resist the charm of her unassuming manner, good nature, and loyalty. Elizabeth’s friends and classmates wish her great success in the future. FRANK HUTCHENS “Doomed for a certain time to play the fool.” Member Lanier Literary Society; Baseball. Good nature is his most prominent char- acteristic. “Jack” is always in a good hu- mor. First there is a twinkling eye, next a grin, and then a chuckle. We are glad to have him in our class, and we will miss him a great deal when our class breaks up in June. We wish you a good future. A A AN NT A ND AFT SSS st Ss SR EES EFS ee

You will find Louise on the list of good students. 3esides pursuing her studies, Louise snatched time to make a host of friends. Wherever you find a group of boys and girls, somewhere near the center you will see Louise. The “Imp” is always accomodating, happy most of the time, ready to argue any time, and possesses an at- tractive personality. The Class of ’26 knows Louise will conquer “Dame Fortune” with a smile and a laugh.

While Helen doesn’t regard school books as her best friends, she has shown great in- terest in athletics, and was one of the best “subs” on the Wilson squad. We count our- selves fortunate in having known Helen; and we feel sure her strong determination and self reliance fortells future success.
