The battles we have fought and won Beneath the White and Green, The common race we all have run, With all the joy we've seen, Have bound us with the strongest tie Of friendship, tried and true, And made us loth to say good-bye, For fields and labors new. But there's a mission for us all In larger realms afarg Then let us gladly heed the call, And follow each his star., In faith and hope, we pledge our strength To fight for truth and right, Trusting to gain the crown at length, For Virtue Conquers Might.

Here's a good natured diligent stu- dent who hails from Macedonia. He is a forceful debater and has won fame by his dry wit and fine common sense. He is a jolly good fellow and is liked by all who know him. Nick, goes forth into the world with the best wishes of both faculty and classmates. His past has been successful, his present is bright, and we predict for him great success as he pursues his studies in one of the leading colleges of the State. MARY PERRY STEWART Wingate, N. C. If music be the food of love, play on. Testatrix of Class 1916, Organist of Y. W. A. Mary is a jolly, good-natured girl, always ready to give advice from the Mold of fashion to how Music should be taught. Her opinions are her own and she speaks them forth, with or without an audience. We consider Mary the best hostess in our class, for she so proved herself at the reception given to the Faculty and Senior Class last Thanksgiving. Mary, as most of us know, is guilty of having a little love wheel like the one which moves the Mill, turning incessantly in her heart. We sincere- ly wish Mary a pleasant and prosper- ous journey through life. 9 fi am , 1 Q M f Q2 ' ' if D . ,, f fe- 1 : K' .alfa f K . 'L f BROOKS JEROME Wingate, N. C. Search Through All The Memories of Mankind, and Find Me Such a Friend. Pres. Philosophian Societyg Pres. Athletic Associationg Commencement Declaimer 1914-15. Commencement Orator, 1916. Brooks is a very quiet fellow, but if you want to hear him talk just carry him to the society hall and he can tell you more history of great men in ten minutes than the average per- son would learn in a whole session. He is always a little late getting on class but he is a splendid student and a good friend. Being socially inclined, he is always anxious to invite the honorary members to society. He may get a late start, but we expect to hear from him in some field of activity. ' RUTH BLACK Wingate, N. C. Patience is the key of content. President of Browning Society, Fall Term, 1915. Editor-in-Chief of An- nual, 1916. To our Editor-in-Chief we hail, timid at times, yet Rastus can as- sert her rights and enjoys fully the warm friendship of her classmates. Through her womanliness, worth, and wisdom she has won for herself a warm spot in each of our hearts, and we give her the name of being our Prize Senior Girl. Ruth is a diligent student and one in whom her teachers delight. She is a true type of woman- hood and one to whom we can apply these words- True hearted, whole- hearted, faithful and loyal. 10 PERCY G. WALL Walnut Cove, N. C. An Honest Man, Close Buttoned to the Chin, Broadcloth Without, and a Warm Heart Within. Commencement Marshal, 1915. Baseball Manager 1916. This modest youth from Stokes County is well known here. As a student he does his duty faithfully. Few rival him in diligence. During his three years stay with us he has not sought honors, preferring rather to perform his tasks while others chased them. In the various school activities he has taken a prominent part, especially in baseball, of which he is manager. To those who know him Percy is a sunshine wearer, al- ways happy, never complaining. His manly qualities and pleasing person- ality have won for him many close friends, who hope that he may have a future crowned with success. EVA LORENA MAE BAUCOM Unionville, N. C. Censor of Browning Society, 1915. Commencement Marshal. We live in deeds not yearsg In thoughts not breathsg In feelings not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart throbs. He most lives who thinks most, Feels the noblest, acts the best. Lorena is one of our number who realizes that things are not accom-- plished by putting oii' until tomorrow, but by doing today. Her motto is, Talk little and think much, which she follows very closely. She has a big sympathetic heart and is ever faithful and punctual to duty. 11 'g In-f' . L I U ,f ' .p HOYT BYRD Taxahaw, S. C. The World Means Something to the Capable. Orator 1916. To know Byrd is to know a friend indeed. He is a good student and a hard worker in society. The sincer- ity, frankness and friendliness of his nature have won for him many friends who will miss him when he is gone. When mischief is in the game, Hoyt always plays a winning hand. After packing his diploma in the lower southwest corner of his trunk, he will depart for his home in Taxahaw, and we wish him well. His manly quali- ties and pleasing personality have won for him many close friends, who hope that he may have a future crowned with success. BESSIE BERNICE McINTYRE Wingate, N. C. AlTection is the Broadest Basis of a Good Life. Historian of Class 1916. Bess is the Baby of our class, but her queenly bearing and lofty manner would not lead one to that conclusion. Bess is a splendid leader, full of strong ideas and opinions, to which she holds with tenacity. She has taken an active part in society, and is interested in everything that concerns the welfare of the school, she knows no such word as failure. Much talk- ing is her specialty, and this wins for her admiration and friends. lT 12 ri- C. W. SPEIGHT Bridgeport, N. C. lt is the wise head that makes a still tongue. President of Society 19169 Art Edi- torg Editor-in-Chief of the X-Ray. This quiet gentleman was given to us by Mars Hill College last August, and he has distinguished himself by the even moderation of tones, by his reticence, and by his steady, quiet work. He is popular, and always does his part nobly. He adores nothing feminine, and believes that every one should look after his own affairs. He is thorough in his studies and swift on the athletic field. WILMA ELLEN GADDY Wingate, N. C. That you may be loved, be amiable. Secretary Browning Society, 15-16. Class Statistician of 1916. Ellen is a jolly girl, who never fails to perform any duty assigned her, and is always punctual at classes and chapel. She believes in a thor- ough preparation for life. Peg, as she is sometimes called, is bright and sympathetic, and possesses every quality that goes to make a pure and noble character. She has received many honors during her high school days, but perhaps the most important is secretary of the Browning Society. Peg is a girl admired and trusted by both Faculty and classmates. She is leaving high school just in the prime of liner popularity, and we wish her we . 13 .1 JOHN McMANUS Taxahaw, S. C. An able man shows his spirits by gentle words and resolute actions. McManus, who comes to us as a sandlapper, is a true and generous friend to every one. He has been with us two years, and has proved himself to be a hard and willing worker. He knows how to make friends and how to keep them. He possesses those rare qualities which make him a desirable companion, and whoever is fortunate enough to be his associate will find him always cheerful and full of fun. John leaves us with a host of friends who wish him success. NELL MAY HEFNER Wingate, N. C. , How sweet the sound of a woman's tongue, a string which has no dis- cord. Nell is the only Senior who has taken voice, and consequently she is of value to the class. Nell is a very popular, and brave girl, especially when she is called before the Faculty to give an account of her good times. We must say for Nell, because of her stylish appearance, winning ways, and melodious voice she has won for herself an important place in the hearts of all her friends. 14 ff: . Sl' CARL RAYFIELD Mt. Croghan, S. C. Perhaps, also, he felt his profes- sional acuteness and is interested in bringing it to a successful close.', Officer of Philosophian Societyg Assistant Business Manager of The X-Rayg Secretary of Senior Class. Dock is always giggling about something. Although he displays an angry countenance sometimes over College Algebra, when he fails to work his example at the blackboard, yet he reads Cicero in the best of humor. When first he entered the Wingate School he was considered very bashful, but he has overcome that now and is very popular with the ladies. He is a splendid fellow and has many friends here. May his sterling qualities develop for his life's work. ANNIE CLARA JONES Wingate, N. C. The glass of fashion and the mould of form. Poetess, Program Committee. Do you want to see the latest Paris- ian styles? If so, We point you to the one member of our class who deals in the newest and most beauti- ful fashions-Miss Annie Jones. Annie, better known as t'Billy, has never been known to get to school on time, because her motto is, Early to bed and late to rise, makes me 'pretty, healthy, and wise, ' until a school choir was organized and she joined it, in order that she might display her beauty and fashion on the stage. We hope that Billy will continue to lead the styles so that her friends may imitate her, and feel assured they are dressed stylish enough to appear in her class. 4.-.59 15 ZEBULON JONES Wingate, N. C. There high in air, memorial of my name, fix the smooth oar, and bid me live to fame. Pres. Gladstone Societyg Manager Basket team, Pres. Senior Classy Editor-in-Chief of The X-Ray, Com- mencement Orator, 1916. Zeb our Star Actor-is a live wire in school and out. On account of his alertness he has developed into one of the best basketball players in school. He was once considered a very poor society worker, but he has waked up to the fact that society work is one of the most important things in school and is now one among the best de- baters we have. May a full share of fun, pleasure, and honor be his in col- lege as it has been in High School. MARY BENNETT Wingate, N. C. Love conquers all things, let us yield to love. Program Committee 1916. Max is an excellent worker and can be counted on at all times to up- hold the interest of the school. She is a good natured, jolly girl, who never shirks her duty, Max loves mischief, and is always ready to en- gage in any innocent fun. Afternoon strolls seem to be her usual exercise, yet she never appears to have neg- lected her work. She will get much out of school life anywhere. 16 ROY MILLS Polkton, N. C. His beauty haunted him in his sleep. Oliicer of Philosophian Society. Roy is a very ambitious young man. Owing to his love for one of the members of the Senior class he spends a good deal of his time Mprimp- ing to improve his appearance. But after all he carries more studies than any other member of the class. This gives us the impression that he has a talent for learning. As a society worker he has made great improve- ment this session. LEE RUTH GRIFFIN Wingate, N. C. Her voice was ever soft and low, an excellent thing in woman. President of Society Spring Term. Commencement Reciter 1916. Pro- gram Committee. Lee is a quiet, reserved, modest, un- assuming student, who is ever attend- ing to her own affairs. She is as staunch and true a friend as any one can find, always sympathetic and lovable, and ever ready to do a service, whether great or small. Lee has al- ways succeeded in any task in High School, we feel sure that she will con- tinue through life with the same true success. 17 'e ,FW ff P9 ssl. BLANCHARD WILLIAMS Wingate, N. C. His friendship is of a noble make and a lasting consistency. President of Philosophian Society. Monk is a steady and hard work- ing fellow, both in books and society. He has little love for general science, yet he carries an all-round record in all of his work. Above the. average as student, friend, and young man, he will do his part Well, and we predict for him an interesting career. 18 Class Oration THE F1 l'1'1iE D1i1'1IENDEX1fE OF .XMER11'A T110 111111011 S11111-s QllX'C1'1ll'llO1lf 1s '11111' 110111'1111l'11t 1111 illlf' f1,11'01g11 1111111111 1111' 1h1- 1111s1111'111 S110 S111111 1111111 111 1111- 1'111111'1-.

Every evidence pointed toward sorrow a11d eternal night, and the future seeuied an iinpossihility. Froni this darkness and everlasting night I was suddenly led away into the 1'I1'Ul1l1CflC reahn and the world of light. and there I was allowed to look into the future and see eaeh 1110111lDCl' of the Class of 19113 as he was, and as she was. NYheu I had seen the future of these lives in the year 1943, I was instructed to go forth and deliver the message without fear. The first to appear was Brooks Jeroine, addressing a large audi- enee in the city of New York. He had niade for hiuiself a nauie, and he was one of the uiost noted orators of the South. Turning iny eyes, I lu-held beautiful eountry houie situated in the northern part of North Carolina. On the large portieo I reeognized Mary Perry enjoying life with her dear husluanrl, Iloy Mills. .Iohn Mmi-Manus was a business niau. acting as superintendent of a large eotton niill in IYingate, Xorth Carolina. Miss Iiee Griiiin was a missionary to China. She seenied to like her work very niueh. Annie .Iones had beeonie a great authoress, was still single and living in Cliieago. Illinois. Mr. Charles Speight was a teacher of I,atiu in Wal-ze Forest College. Xorth Carolina. Ellen Gaddyiinarried a Senior of the 10143 Class of the Ivingate School, and was living on a farin near Boston, Mass. She had a beautiful honie-only a little eottage with roses CltlH1lftCl'l11g all over the porches and vines all around. Hoyt Byrd was a eongressnian. I-Ie had niarried a lady of the South, and they were residents of ilV21Slll11glO11, D. C. Xell Hefner was in Paris studying to beeonre an actressg how- ever she fell in love with a Frenehnian and gave up her plans in order to marry the gentleman. 21 Suddenly the scene changed, and I beheld a niultitude of people assembling in a large building in St. Paul, Minnesota, which was being addressed by the President of the Ivnited States-Zeb .I ones. Carl Iiaylield had obtained his license, and was practising inedicine in IVingate, Xorth Carolina. He fell in love with one of his patients-Bess McIntyre--and they were inarried. Kick Funderburk had secured Professor Carroll's place as prin- cipal of the IViugate High School. Xick. being a single inan, had very little trouble in managing the boys, and was loved by all the girls because of his pleasing manners, hence he never had any trouble with the girls to breaking rules and neglecting their lessons. Mary Bennett was a nurse. and was Superintendent of John Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore. Maryland. ' Percy IVall was a lawyer, and had a large practice. He owned one of the best lots in the heart of the city of Charlotte, Xorth Carolina, on which he had constructed a beautiful Colonial niansion. A fountain of sparkling water was in the center of the front yard, also inany beautiful flowers. Servants were busy keeping things in order, while Mrs. P. G. Ivall spent all of her tinie in social ei1'eles. She was one of his Il'ingate friends. Kate Redfcarn had completed her college course, and was a ineniber of the faculty of Meredith College. being head of the English Department. I Lorena Baucoin, after eoinpleting her business course at Ivin- gate, Xorth Carolina, in the year 1916, was suddenly called to be the private stenographer for the tlrni of Herrin X Byrd in the city of Philadelphia. Not knowing that Herrin had been her steady friend while they were in school at IVingate, innnediately after her arrival he was introduced to her. She at once recognized hini. They renewed their friendship, which was a. strong and remarkable one in their school days. and in due time they were happily married. IVhen the god of the brophetie world had delivered the niessage to nie I was led back into the region of darkness, and through it I was directed back to earth, saying to nie: To go forth and do your work and fear no evil. I 00 .4- History of Class TVe, the Senior Class of 19113, are about to take our departure froni these walls, niade so sacred to us by the cherished ineniorics and associations of our school days. NVQ- may pass on, but we leave a 1'OC'O1'tl which tinie cannot elface. Although our class began with a larger nuinbcr than you see at present-however you behold the victors of the struggle. Year by year it has been the fate of sonie to fall by the wayside. Today we stand qualified and equipped to receive the brightest honor the lVingate School can bestow upon her sons and daughters. NVQ have fought the battle day after day: night after night we have struggled in order to reach the goal of our prep-school days, therefore we can truly say, T'nto the faithful belongeth the victory. The nienibers of our class have had the opportunity of being nienibers of three leading literary societies, nainelyz The Browning, The Philosophian and The Gladstone. The girls froin the Browning Society have received special training and instruction in niusic, art and literature. The young nien froni the Gladstone and Philoso- phia11 societies have received special training in debating and public speaking which will be of service to theni in the coniing years. Last spring when the Senior Class began to niake preparations for their graduating exercises, we often found ourselves building air castles for a class of twenty-one nieinbers-only twenty now reinain. Much of the success of the Senior Class due to faithfulness and efforts of our beloved teachers. Although our class has had its ups and downs, its joys and sorrows, we are now better prepared to look at the past with a feeling of pride, for we know that having surinounted the obstacles of our school days, we are now able to go out and face the battles we are sure to nleet along the pathway of life. Such has been the history of the class. As you see, we have acconiplished inuch, yet we have larger plans for the future. Profit- ing by our niistakes, and relying upon our ability to win, we niean to press steadily on until we have reached the goal to which all honest endeavors lead, and where we shall again be worthy of our motto: HVIRTUE Coxovnas S'rRENGT1-if' rpg Class Will IVe, the members of the Senior Class of 1916, thankful to the pronuilgators and supporters of the Ikvingate School for its mainte- nance and opportunities, and thankful to the citizens of the town of IVingate for their kindness and hospitality toward us during our sojourn among them, but realizing that our stay here must soon cease, and that we must soon take up our position in the unknown arena of life, do make, publish and declare this our last will and testament, hereby revoking and declaring null and void all former wills, codicils and paperwritings purporting to be such that may have been at any time made, published or declared by us: Item I.

Item IV. IYe will to the teachers and faculty of this school our undying thanks for their kindness and attention. IVe furthermore will to the teachers a Senior Class as large as this one, and, if possible, as good and great and noble. IVe also will to the said teachers a full school, good support, and as little trouble as possible. Item V. IVe, the members of the Senior Class, in this our last will and testament, will to our beloved Junior Class all of our pride, privileges, high-minded ways, dignity, peculiarities, and all such abstractions of which we depart seized, to be used by it, the said Junior Class, during its Senior year and in trust thereafter for the use and benefits of its successors and assigns. 24 Item VI. It is our will and desire that all the hard lessons that we have endured from the faculty in the way of Latin lessons, English lessons, in mathematics, together with all the ridiculing, lecturing and advice that we may have received from either Professor Carroll or Professor Langston, go to the said Junior Class in fee simple, upon this condition, to-wit: that they assume and bear all the blame for all the rule breaking, failure to prepare lessons, and any other shortcomings of which we were accused, tried and found guilty. Item VII. IVe will, devise and bequeatli to our beloved -Iohn Parker all the sedateness and stateliness of which our dear Hoyt Byrd may be seized of. Item VIII. NVe will and desire that all of our lovely Buth Black's beauty go to our loved Victoria McIntyre. Item IX. It is our will and desire that all of the kiddishness of our beloved Bess McIntyre, together with all the airs of our baby, Mary Bennett, go to our beloved Sarah Bivens and Gladys Hefner, to be held by them as tenants in common. Item X. Yve will and bequeath all the stiffness of -Iohn McManus and Blanchard IVilliams to our friend and kinsman, Dan McCollum. Item XI. It. is our will and desire that no one shall take the bombastie characteristics of our beloved Xicholas Funderburk, Charles Speight and Brooks .Ierome. Item XII.

It is our desire that our dearly beloved Lorena Baucom, Kate Bedfearn and Ellen Gaddy convey all their right, title and inte1'est in the modesty they now enjoy to Naomi Davis, Thelma Carroll and Daisy Liles, to be held in trust for the use and benefit of our lawful successors to share and enjoy alike. Item XIV. It is our will and desire that all of the angelic beauty of which our loved Lee Gritiin, Annie Jones and Xell Hefner shall depart seized, shall go to the lady teachers for their sole and separate use during their natural life, and at their death to go to their successors in otlice. Item XV. It is our will and desire, and so let the same be 25 executed by those empowered so to do, that the Winning ways and pleasing nianner of our brothers Zeb Jones and Percy lVall go to the Principals of the said lVingate School, and that the sanie be used and eonsuined by the said principals as early as possible in order that the future students may the better endure the ills and dangers of sitting on Gerinan and history reeitations. XVQ, the inembers of the Senior Class of the lllingate School of 1916, being of sound niind and nieinory, do declare this to be our last will and testament, and in Witness of the sanie we have this the 24th day of April, 19113, hereunto set our hands and seals. l ZEB JONES, Pl'0SliCZ6lI-l.

The society has been growing and developing into an organization of which the school is justly proud. The present year's Work has been a bright page in its histo1'y. The society was named for Robert and Elizabeth Browning. The prograins are rendered weekly. They consist of niusie, recitations, reading and debates. Each nieniber is supposed to respond with whatever she is called upon to do, and we are glad to say that niost of our girls do this with a Willing spirit. Of course every girl in school is expected to join, and niost of theni do innnedi- ately after registration. Sonietinies We have special programs and invite the faculty. Tlvith their encouragenient, we Work for the betterment of our society. Our lVingate girls show great love and respect for their society. Most of theni realize what society work ineans for those who nialie the best use of their advantages, and therefore they put heart and soul into the work of raising the society to a higher standard, and at the same tiuie upbuilding and strengthening their oywi characters. There is a gold inedal otfered by the society each year-the reeiter's inedal. Our society well represented on all public oeca- sions. Tve also have four reeiters for Coinnienceinent who are con- testants for the niedal. Thus the society, with its various phases of work, appeals to all. It is pleasing to yvateh the gradual development wrought by the unceasing efforts of those who wish to utilize the opportunities thus given them, and in after life the ineniories of the associations formed in the Browning Society will not only endure, but grow dearer with the passing years. 27 A Y - 1 S 1 ctw f ff ,V P ' A 1 ,.Lf- K : ..a,-, 1, 4- f fi, ff ' f XA?

He inust train hiniself to use this talent to the best advantage if he does his whole duty to Gdd a11d 111311. Tn order to do this he niust study and ponder over the thi11gs that detract from the value of these talents, and niake a great effort to overconie these obstacles. He inust learn to express i11 an intelligent nianner the things he has been taught. This is true, whatever his vocation 111ay be. All 111611 are willing to be led by a competent leader. This being true, it is necessary to train inen to express their thoughts intelligently. The Gladstone Society gives exceptional advantages in this field of work. The society has a program each week consisting of a debate, deelainations, exteniporaneous speakers, Rllfl so forth. No 1na11 gets the best o11t of school u11less he joins one of the societies. The society spirit pervades the whole school. Students who fail i11 this work cannot usually be depended on in the class roo111. The public occasions which tl1c societies usually have are a joint debate i11 October, another ill March, and a debate between the societies at Coinnienceinent. The last debate is the o11ly tiine that the societies are allowed to speak against each other, 311Cl is an occa- sion of niuch friendly rivalry. At COl11111G11CG111011f orators Hllil declainiers are chosen by each society, and a inedal is given for each contest. lfsually the honors are 2llJO11t equally divided between the societies. , Q 30 -fl lf, '.

Wye are proud of our excel- lent hall, provided by the trustees of the XVingate School, and furnished by boys who are members of this society. The hall has been improved from time to time, and plans have been made for much more improvement this year. This is a secret organization, and the password word, Sequi,'7 can be seen on the banner of the door. Tn Latin it means to follow, but to a Philosophian it means far more than that. The secret meaning has been duly kept and reverenced by all its members. To know it is a reward. The society receives the co-operation of its members, which means success to any organization. This society reveals to each new man the importance of society work and otfers him every opportunity to develop into a Demos- thcnes. He is made to feel that he is a part. of the o1'ganization. Thcxprograms consist of current events, declamations, extempo- raneous speeches and debates. The oflicers of this society are elected quarterly, and consist of president, vice-president, secretary, censor, treasurer, critic, sexton and chaplain. Our aim is to impart a knowledge of parliamentary law, to cultivate and direct a desire for reading, and to form a correct habit of public speaking. The faculty regards this as an important aid in the work of education and in the preservation of wholesome ideals among the students. As an inducement to its members, the society otfers two gold medals annually, one to be given Christmas, and the other Com- mencement, for the most improvement in society work. The societies unite in giving public debates. Each society furnishes one atiirnia- tive and one negative debater for the debates given in the fall and spring, but there being a medal at stake for the best debatcr Com- mencement, the societies debate against each other, the honors of which have been about equally divided. The friendly rivalry in debating contests, and on the athletic field, causes its members to exercise every possible means to be pre-eminent in strength, both in society work and gymnasium sports. .yy -J.. 1- QQ .L ,six-. n Q QA LASS C NOR MAL U I -Ill' l.

After a hard day's worlc in the class room, nothing benelits a student so much as to engage in some sport that will rest his niind, and at the saine tiuie give inueh needed bodily exercise. The health of niany students is inipaired because of lack of exercise. Sonie people do not believe in a school having athletic associa- tions or any athletic games. They claiin that the student's business is to study, and not to play ball. lYell, priniarily, we agree with theni, but it has been the experience of all schools that athletics pay greatly, and in spite of the chronic kicker-s, all high schools and colleges have soine forni of athletics, and the trustees of the lVingate School have inade ainple provisions for athletics here. NVe have two basketball courts, one for the girls and one for the boys. Wie also have an excellent baseball dianiond. The Xvingate School has a good baseball teani. lVe played several games with other high schools in the fall, and won a fair nuinber of the gaines played. lVe hope to do even better in the spring. ive now have an organized athletic association, and our baseball, inore than any other phase of sport, bids fair to take on new life. lvingate has an exceptionally good basketball teain. The teain has won a majority of games played, and at present is in the best condition it has been in this season. Wingate has equally divided honors with Marshville High School with two ganies won and two lost. lvith Unionville they have won several games Without once being defeated by the Unionville Highs. Our track team did not do any work this year, but We hope by another year to have it in better Working order. 39 BASKETBALL TEAM Wanted To know how inany cubic inches in a cannon ball-Carl King.
