VELLA VERNELLE ASH Dahloneca. Ga. A.B., B.Ph. Latin Medal, IS- ' ie; Class Poet, 17- 18. Better known as Miss Villa . She has no good or bad habits. She loves to stroll on the shady campus with the one but sad to say she is quite a Mormon in her selection of beaux. Dr. Glenn himself has not a complete record of her victims. At present she is working hard to complete her college course in order to study Red Cross nursing and probably go with a Ray of light into France. She spends most of her idle time thinking of demerits received for cutting classes. Her favorite expression is: Have you seen the O. D.?

Senior Class Prophecy T was a dark and gloomy day in the year 1950. I had had a hard morn- ing ' s work in the class-room and had returned to my room to read the morning paper. Almost the first thing that I noticed was the announce- ment that one of the greatest statesmen and orators of the day was to sjjeak the next day in hehalf of the Democratic Party. This was none other than our iiriliiant class-mate, B. F. Register. Following his career from his graduation I remember that the year of 1920 found him with his Master ' s Degree. After this he took up the study of law. He has climbed the ladder of success until he now stands almost at its very height. I will also have to tell you that time has now dimmed those sunny locks of our distinguished class-mate Ish . He also re- mains true to the old reputation that he held at college in that he is still a Shake- speare on all questions, Though convinced against his will, he is of the same opin- ion still . Next I thought of Vella Ash and with that thought came the familiar quotation, Her modest face a cottage might adorn . And this is what she is really doing, for after many trials Vella at last decided upon the one who was entirely essential to her future happiness and is now contentedly settled in life with her one Ray of hope. While I was sitting thus musing over the glad, ihe sad, the good and happy limes we seven had had in the walls of old N. G. A. C. I was recalled from my memories by a tap at the door. The postman had called and the first letter I looked at proved to be from my old class-mate Jimmy Long. Jimmy after his graduation had for a time exposed himself as a target for German bullets but had come home to settle peacefully down as one of the biggest farmers in his country. I opened [he letter to find that Jimmy was in deep trouble as usual, about the same object. The question of stock law had been raised in his county and he wanted to know if there was any way in which he could make his beloved Alice vote for fence as it was decidedly to their co-operative interest that she should. After rehearsing his own troubles Jimmy told me something of 1 aucett and Higgins. Faucett, he tells me, is happily settled in Cornelia, Ga., as an electrical engineer and takes great pleasure in joining the inhabitants of this little city in their chief occupation, that of meeting every train that passes through the town. He has also become an ardent member of Father ' s church. Higgin ' i name had appeared on the first page of all the newspapers during the war and he is now a famous retired Major of the Lnited States Army. Needless to say that this title is still as fitting as it was in the old college days at Dahlonega. I might tell you that he still insists upon wearing a military pompadour. Then comes our famous class-mate, Pearl Tate. During the war she was liter- ally at the front as a Red Cross Nurse and I am glad to tell you that she has married one of her beloved soldier boys and is an ardent opponent of the Woman ' s Rights Movement.
