H. NEAL, B. R. S. Harry Neal, of Shiloh, Ga., Harris County, First Ser- geant Company A, first saw the North Georgia Agricul- tural College in 1904. He fills his present place so well it is hard to think of him as having ever been anything else. His history is hard to write because his whole life is made up of what he is going to do. He is very much given to boasting, and the cadets say he cannot take a joke. He says he can take one as well as anybody if it is the right sort. So intent is he on preparing himself for the busy life of a business man that he has been known to escort a young lady to a social gathering at the Dormitory and then leave her and work on his books until the time to escort her home. Diligence brings success, and such dil- igence as that tempts the Historian to give way to fancy, trespass on the prophet ' s province, and write up Mr. Neal ' s career that is yet to come. We shall alwavs think of him, however, as the First Sergeant.

H. V. JOHNSON, B. I. H. V. Johnson, (jainesville, Ga., is so very quiet tliat it is next to impossible to record anything concerning him of a ridiculous nature. He and the young ladies are ex- ceedingly fond of each other, yet he looks at the sky whle talking to them. He likes Latin, math, and the library, and takes great delight in building fires for the librarian. In the circles of the Literary Societies he is known as the Peanut President. Fhis came about by his being ac- cused of accepting a bag ot peanuts from his roommate as a bribe in one of his decisions. He dreams of going West after graduation to instruct the Western youths. He has a B. 1. course, but has also studied Agriculture with a view of joining this agricultural knowledge with the domestic knowledge of some young lady. He leaves, however, all this to be settled in the future.
