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

NICHOLAS A. FUNDERBURK Monroe, N. C. WVhose height is six cubits and a span. 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

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
