James Floyd Evans, Mathematical, Evansville. He hath more business in a day than some men in a life-time. A gay young graduate from Grandview Normal Institute ap- peared at Maryville College in 1905, and became one of the ' 09s. He cast aside his frivolity during the following year and joined the Juniors. Through their influence he has become a dignified Senior, Editor of the College Monthly, and the hard-headed Business Manager of the 1908 Annual. He is particularly gifted in separating poor students from their gold ducats. As a rule, he is unable to speak to preps. He is very fond of American beauties. Ernest Morrison Ewers, Classical, Kirklin, Ind. The world was sad; the garden zvas a wild! And man, the hermit, sighed — till woman smiled. Though he has been with us nearly a year, no one has seen him smile or look at a girl. He rarely opens his mouth, and then only to close it again. Oft do we see him wander, silent and alone, across the campus. It is sad for one so young and full of promise to be so melancholy. He was given a place on the football team in the vain hope that athletics would draw him out of himself. The Athenians, with the same kindly thought, made him their president. We have learned upon careful investigation that this sad youth was reared upon the Shorter Catechism, hymn- books, and other churchly food. Believing as we do in the in- fluence of environment, we think his unfortunate disposition is easily explained. Perhaps if there were some bright-haired girl to walk at his side on some of his solitary strolls, her magic might cheer him. 19

Nellie Ruth Franklin, English, Jefferson City. A maid of grace and complete majesty. One November day her dark eyes flew open and she realized that she was. At a very tender age she was sent to Maryville College, for her parents were anxious she should have the best advantages the Southland afforded. Here she began the study of Masculine Human Nature. This line of work proved so inter- esting that she has made it her specialty. However, she has found time to win honor in athletics and to prove herself a faithful member of the Theta Epsilon Literary Society. Sara Adeline Goddard, English Literature, Maryville. Man for his glory to history flies. While woman ' s bright story is told in her eyes. Sara Adeline was born at Bank, Tenn., April 3, (exact year unknown). She is a young lady whose talents promise much for the future glory of the Naughty Eights, if she continues her work with the same persistence shown by her during the years she has spent with her Alma Mater. Miss Goddard is graduated this year from the Expression Department. Almira Elizabeth Jewell, English Literature, Maryville. Muse not that I thus suddenly proceed, For what I will, I will, and there an end. One who needed room to grow ; so at the age of two she was transplanted to the wind-swept prairies of Kansas. In 1899 she was graduated from the high school at Moran, Kansas. For some time afterward she was numbered among the Kansas school- marms. Wearying of so strenuous a life, she returned to her native state and became a student at M. C. For four long years she has climbed the hill of knowledge with slow but patient steps. 20
