A. O. Graydon, she was led by her parents to the oracle. ln response to their prayer the oracle gave forth the following utterance: No matrimony for you until you hnd a beautiful man. Now she runs up and down the campus, the streets of Arkadelphia, and through the study hall like Diogenes with his lantern, hunting for a beautiful man. Unless she gives up the vain search, we predict for her nothing but old maidenhood. lf she has not already reached this periol of life we offer her our most hearty congratulations. lint the end she is trying to attain is like a rainbow, the idle dream of the queen of dreamcrs. Speaking of dreamers brings us to Miss Xlaye Turrentine. She has made a study of the mystery of dreams, and since she is a dreamiof beauty, it is perfectly natural that she shoulil have made a success. ln her youth she dreamed from early morn till dewy eve. llihen a few :nore years had passed she began to dream of nature and to direct her thoughts toward the woods She reached such a high state of perfection in these fields of thought that sho personified nature and gave it names like Dearwood. lndeed she is a veritable nature fakir. XYhat she will Finally grind out from the held of knowledge. tiine only will tell. There are some who have the elements of a noble character so concealed in them, that we never know what great truth will next fall from their lips. Such a one is our class-mate, Nliss Turrentine. But who is that handsome dog with the athletic shoulders and that grace- ful form? That is Duckie Peabody, alias Dudley Tull, ex-quarter back on the Henderson team. The history of such a character as his is too black to stain the fair pages of such a sacred volume. It is a source of regret that statistics have forced us to place his name on a few of these fair pages. O Statistics, what an awful blood-curflling monster art thou! .Xs for the future we hate to speak, but stern duty demands this of us. llis picture will grace the rogues' gallery of every police court in our great republic. The only reason we have allowed Duckie a berth among us is because he has the wonderful power of appropriating all superfluous hearts. He is known as the man with a heart like a trolley car, always room for one more. Therefore it is plain 'to all that he is a comforter to all love-sick maidens in the hour of sore distress and in the time of need. This is his one redeeming feature. There is one peculiarity about his criminal face, that is, the smile he always wears, but XYilliam Cullen Shakespeare has truthfully said in his little ballad entitled Ten Nights in a llar-room, or 'XYho Drove Tacks in the llaby's Face. Une may smile and smile and be a villain. There is one characteristic much desired and appreciated in women and so seldom seen that when such a phenomenon presents itself to our eyes we stand dumb-founded. There is one and only one of the class of Ioo8 in whom this admirable trait resides. That happy, yea, thrice happy maid is our fellow student, Miss Nettie Wihitesiile. She was horn when conversation was at a premium and is a walking advertisement of that old maxim, f'Silence is Colden . The remarkable trait of which we speak and which our classmate has so happily attained, even soaring to the heavens in her fame, is the faculty of being in a state of mind which is not bubbling over with empty conversation. For any person of such high accomplishments and possessed in addition of such infinite knowledge, success awaits the plucking like a ripe and juicy peach ready to fall into the lap of mother earth. Thus encleth the chapter. ltlanv things have been left unsaid which we might well have mentioned. If we have said too much, time only will tell. Pax vobiscum, ad infuntumf' D, G, T, 17
