re TONAHIAN f nnaljtan Halum? II ubltsljrb by (EUbh nf 1922 Piedmont (ttnlleg? The Legend of Nacoochee and Yonak In the long, long ago, when only the Red men climbed the Blue mountains and hunted deer and bear in the forests, there lived a mighty chieftain — Yonah — the Great Bear. Yonah loved his little daughter Nacoochee — Evening Star — and planned to make for her a great marriage with some mighty chief- tain of his tribe. But Nacoochee ' s heart was willful, and would not be guided by her stern father, for she loved Sautee, the young chief of a hostile people, and she had promised to be his squaw. When Yonah found that Nacoochee had given her heart to Sautee, his anger was very great. And he swore that Sautee should pay the price of her disobedience. But Nacoochee went to Sautee and together the lovers fled from the angry father. They hid in the forests of the Great Bear ' s mountain. Yonah and his braves found them there, and Yonah ordered that they be carried to the top of the mountain. From there could be seen pile on pile the Blue mountains, far, far beyond the lands of Yonah into the forests of Sautee ' s tribe. The cruel father com- manded that Sautee be bound hand and foot with strong hickory withes, and thrown over the precipice of the mountain ; and that Nacoochee stand and see the fall that she might learn what it meant to disobey a father ' s will. As the braves swung the helpless body of Sautee over the steep side of Mount Yonah, Nacoochee sprang forward and threw her arms around her lover and together they fell down, clown, down to the valley below. Too late old Yonah grieved for the beautiful Evening Star. The crushed bodies of Nacoochee and Sautee were buried under a green mound in the valley. And the old man went away with his fathers. The Red men have been long gone from the Blue Mountains, but old Yonah watches over the mound of the two lovers, and the evening star shines brightly over the valley where Nacoochee and Sautee lie sleeping.

Graduate of Toccoa High School ' ' She doth little kindness, which most leave undone or despise. Page Eighteen Member of Y. W. C. A. (2, 3 and 4) ; Drama League (2) ; W. P. K. Pres. (3) ; Honorary member of Protropian Society (2, 3 and 4) ; Class Treasurer (3) ; Class Pres. (4) ; Treas. Yonahian (3) ; Secretary Students ' Ass ' n (4). Daisy has proven in her four years at Piedmont that the maxim, Much study is a weariness of the flesh, ' ' is not true. The A ' s that she has made go to prove that residts have been accomplished by her work. Does she ever get blue ? Well, we do not know if she does. She always greets you with a joke and a smile. Does she ever get mad? Only when the boys won ' t give up the tennis court after playing all day. Such conduct Miss Hayes insists, only increases her distaste for the masculine sex. Daisy has set a standard at Piedmont that no other girl in the class of ' 21 can claim : Through her four years she has not given a single gentleman the honor of her esteemed company. Even in her senior year she has heartlessly refused the earnest pleadings of Justus. While pursuing her studies in the early morning hours she has been heard to break forth upon the following strain : I would not marry a man that ' s rich, For he would get drunk and fall in the ditch. I would not marry a man that ' s poor, For he would beg from door to door. So I ' ll not marry at all. Daisy is a friend in need and indeed. In spite of her protests the boys all like her. She has a great love for mathematics and science, which her B. S. de- gree proves. For the past four years she has been a frequent sojourner to the chemistry lab. We imagine her old haunt will be lonesome for the next year. Daisy has made many friends among both faculty and students. We all love her for her sincerity, brilliancy and good disposition. As Daisy is very much interested in education for the masses, we predict that her work will be that of supervision of the schools in her own state. Page Nineteen Luke Crenshaw Ray, A. B Demorest, Georgia Graduate Fort Worth High School His life teas gentle and the elements so mixed in him that nature might stanel up and say to all the world, this was a man.

M. C. A. (4) ; Member J. S. Green Literary Society (4) ; 2 vkpatns ' EITEP (4). When all the nine Senior girls heard that they were to have a new senior boy this year, they immediately set their caps for him, but all in vain ! Luke didn ' t take any stock in the saying, Gee! Whiz! I ' m glad I ' m free; no wed- ding bells for me! for he has the prettiest little wife you ever did see. Mr. Ray is an all-round athlete. In football, how he did shine, and as Coach of the girls ' basketball team be lias done wonders. Whatever he starts he does right. If you want to see some pretty tackling you just ought to see Luke C. in a football game. He has proven his ability not only as an athlete and a student, but as an actor. Those who witnessed the Senior stunt one night can swear to this. In Bible he can discuss anything from Genesis to Revelation and back again. He can almost (hardly tho) equal Sir Thomas in his arguments. When some of us heard that Mr. Ray was studying for the mini- stry we thought he had missed his calling for he was jolly and pleasant. It doesn ' t take the old time long faced preachers to appeal to mankind however, and we are glad that Mr. Ray is entering into this great work with such a pleasant and optimistic outlook on life. We wish you all success, for we know that, vou are everv inch a man. Page Twenty-one Gerardine Muriel, A. B Jacksonville, Fla Graduate of Duval] High School. She was want to speak plain and to the purpose. m ■ i 7 Page Tzventy-tivo Entered Sophomore year; Vice-pres. Y. W. C. A. (2 3 4) ; Circulation Manager Owl (2 3) ; Pres. W. F. K.

Gerry comes to us from Rollins College. Perhaps she felt that in the moun- tains of North Georgia we needed a headlight. So with her shining tresses serv- ing as such, she has kept us from falling over the steep precipices and stony places. Enthusiasm? Yes! Gerry is always enthusiastic whether it be a Senior reception or an education essay. As a business woman she showed her ability when Editor of the Yonahian. She distinguishes herself by her fondness for long chapel and vesper talks, long prayers, long class periods, studying and going to the infirmary. Does she talk? I ' ll say she does. She can do everything, her blue eyes being included in everything. We shall always remember Gerardine by her favorite expression, Father is English, becau se this is the reason she gives for all of her characteristics, whether it be fondness for beans with sauce or fondness for reading classical literature. It has always been a mystery to us how Gerry could ' get by, ' without study- ing, especially in such courses as Physics, under Prof. Roberts. She has been told by one of the profs that she has the power which few of us have, that of getting by a single reading an amount of knowledge equal to that which the average person gets upon faithful and prolonged study. Her keen interest in all literary activities is manifested by the part she takes in them. We cannot think of Gerry ever being under any higher author- ity than her own self. She has a wonderful gift as leader. We expect to find her some day as the manager of some large concern, probably, president of a girls ' college. Page Twenty-three Newton Owen Sappington, A. B Graduate of Piedmont Academy Handsome is as handsome docs. . . Yatesville, Ga. £ Page Tiventy-four J. S. Debating Society (1. 2. 3. 4.) Secretary (1) V. pres. (3) Pres. (4) ; Owl — Athletic Editor (4) Sport writer (3); Y. M. C. A. (1), Cabinet (3) V. pres. (4) ; J. S. Green anniversary speaker (3). (4) ; Baseball letter (3) Class treasurer (3) ; Commercial (3). Owen, the handsome young man of the class, is always kind, ever thought- ful of the ladies, wears a smile characteristic of himself alone. Of all his courses of study, Astronomy is the chief one. He has become so accustomed to star gazing that he frequently finds himself in the mud on the way to class. Perhaps he sees a Newborne star. He not only gazes into the heavens but also at the busy crowds that throng the city. He is constantly accused of this while he sits by the window in English IV. Perhaps he ' ll be a treat writer of the people, a writer second only to Shakespeare. Owen can do almost anything you call on him to do whether it be reading French or helping Prof. Burrage boost Emory University. He constantly makes himself appear very interested in his classes by telling the Profs., that he doesn ' t understand certain fine points. We understand, however, that Owen loves to evade the lesson. Owen has played a great part in College Athletics having won the letter. He is interested in every College activity and has done much to make the J. S. Green an excellent organization. As a worker in Y. M. C. A. he has done much. We trust that in your life work, good fortune may be yours to enjoy. Page T wenty-fi ve Wiley Mobley Pope Tucson, Arizona Graduate of Woodville High School. Hoiv sweet is the song of spring, When a man ' s in love nothing matters. Page Tiventy-six J. S.

Cabinet (2 3) ; Council (4). Does he think of his ancestors? Quite often we ' ll say. In fact we believe if he had not spent so much of his time in such thoughts, he would have made more than a C on his chemistry. To hear him talk, his record is full and running over with A ' s. It may be due to several things, but we believe the paramount reason is his flashlight which seems to be indispensable even in broad-open day- light. Lest we forget that Wiley Mobley is a descendant of the English royal line, we have to look some rainy day at his boots handed down from those famous rulers. We are surprised that he does not have among his other regal relics the mud-splashed cloak of Sir Walter Raleigh. If your knowledge is limited as to the odor of hydrogen or as to the proper expression to be used in reading Spanish, consult Mr. Pope. He has been accused of dealing with things too much in general and not enough in detail. This accusation does not always hold true, for if you will look into his Chemistry note-book you will find among his drawings the minutest bubbles of hydrogen gas. We wonder yet how he managed to get so far beyond the assignments in Trig. When someone complained of not getting the 10th example Pope always happened to be hung up on the 49th. Maybe he possesses the peculiar power of working one example with one hand while with the other he works another. Pope enjoys the distinction that few of us enjoy — namely that of creditably completing a four years ' college course in three years. During the three years that he has been with us, he has made many friends. He is a good worker, a reliable business man, an excellent class mate and a loyal friend. So we wish you well, old boy, in your field of service. Page Twenty-seven Frances Agla Vassey, A. B Chesnee, S. C. Graduate of Piedmont Academy Modesty is the brightest jewel in the crown of womanhood. Page Tiuenty-eight Y. W. C. A. (1, 2, 3 4) ; W. P. K., (1, 2 3) ; Caroline Club, (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Vice president Carolina Club (4) ; Honorary member of the J. S. Green Society. Oh ! is not the sunset beautiful ? Frances is fortunately endowed with an artistic temperament, which enables her to appreciate the beauties of the uni- verse most keenly. Art is her hobby. She says that she is going to make this her profession. Those of us who know her love of homey firesides, especially the ones where Crick-ets chirp by the hearth, do not exactly proclaim that she will teach art. Frances is a favorite with her Spanish teacher. Of course she is, because she is a shark in it. If you wish to know about a constellation, the moon, or the sun, just ask Frances. Astronomy has been her chief delight, and we wonder sometimes if the teacher has not been the reason instead of the subject. Frances is quiet, but very wise, she will make a success in anything she Tindertakes, because she has proven this in her years at Piedmont. We are all better for having known you, Little Girl, and we will ever love you. We wish you all success whether in Art Studies or in that cozy little bunga- low. Page Tiuenty-nine Marjorie Askin A. B Barnesville, Ga. Graduate of Piedmont Academy Devoted, lovable, devoid of guile and with her whole heart ' s welcome in her smile. Page Thirty J. S.

In the Land of Heart ' s Desire (2); Rector, Home Came Ted (3) ; Recital: Blue Bird. (3). When we think of Little Askin, we always think of an all round girl, full of life, love and laughter. She has a wonderful disposition, and has never been known to let her temper get away with her. She need not think that she can disguise herself for her laugh will always toll on her. About the time every one else is laughing over a joke, Little Askin quietly asks: What are you laughing about? Then on discovering the rea- son, her gleeful laugh breaks forth which affords another laugh to the whole bunch. Marjorie ' s favorite past time is making flower baskets. We have an idea that they are for her Hope Chest, since that Folmer lad lives in the land of flowers. No wonder Marjie dotes on flower baskets. Marjorie is a friend to the friendless and befriended alike. She has never been known to slight anyone. In all her years at Piedmont, she has won the love and admiration of all who have known her. Page Thirty-one W. Lester Wilson, A. B Paeolet, S. C. Graduate of Sharpsburg-Etna High School. Like a sage he moves among us. Page T iirty-tivo Class Pres. (2) ; J. S. Green (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Pres.

K. Patns Ettep. Pres. (4). We wonder yet what the W stands for. Maybe it ' s Walking Lester. If it were S instead of W . We could easily infer Sage. If we were to covet anything that belongs to him, it woidd surely be his Websterian vocabulary. So great is his general knowledge of everything, he is sometimes called the walk- ing encyclopedia. There is one thing, however, that might distinguish Mr. Wilson from a walking encyclopedia — an encyclopedia does not walk sideways, certainly, but Lester does. W. Lester and Wiley Mobley were once heard to remark that there were no good looking girls in Piedmont. However true this may be, this much can be said in return ; if all the young men in Peidmont bore the same resemblance to beauty as do these two young gentlemen, we fear that no sculptor nor painter could use them as models of beauty. We are glad that Wilson has been with us these four years. There ' s one thing we regret, however. We fear that he hasn ' t got the full benefit of the sixty golden minutes given to each recitation. Oh ! if the giftorian of Pitts- burg High had only presented him with an alarm clock that alarms every fifty- five minutes ! Then he would have been on time a few times at least. Wilson has done good work ; he has been a leader in many activities ; he has been a true friend and supporter of all good causes. His specialty is Eng- lish and we expect to hear from him some day, (unless he bespeaks himself to use his own words) either thru a book or from the lecture field. Page Thirty-three Sarah Caroline Hall, A.B Barney, Ga.

If you ' ll look long and patiently at the largest and most extensive map of Georgia, you will find way down in the southern most part of the state, written in the smallest visible type, Barney, the present home of Miss Sarah Caroline Hall. Caroline is a native Georgian and loves her state above all others, but if you talk with her for awhile, you ' ll soon learn that the next best state is Louisiana. Tf you wish to be her friend, don ' t offend her. Yea, hear ye the counsel of the man of wisdom, if you even try to tackle her individual rights, you are in danger of losing your head and hearing your funeral preached at the same time. We are not prophets nor prophet ' s sons, and we cannot yet tell to what calling Caroline will answer, but one thing we know is that she will never sub- mit to anybody ' s rules. Anyone who has not had the pleasure of sitting near Caroline in chapel, will never know to what degree of boredom she has suffered. Sometimes you ' d think your next landing place would be on the floor, so great were her squirms. She loves a beautiful day, but a dark day produces a dreary and blue effect upon her. She could even say as Prof. Roberts said once in Physics Class, when explaining the solar spectrum Her habitual belateness to breakfast is due to her morning gaze at the easter n sky. Caroline is not athletic but you shoxdd see her serve a ball in tennis. You shoidd watch her swing an Indian club, and be sure that you are at a full dis- tance from her lest she let it fall upon you. Caroline has been a very popular student throughout her college career. Both faculty and students have held her in high esteem and they have rightly done so, for she is a friend Avorthy to be had. Judging her by all she ' s done since she ' s been with us, we know that the future holds much in store for her, and we need not be surprised when we read some day of the obliteration of Georgia illiteracy, that Caroline had a great part to play in it.

There is music when the hand is playing, but the sweetest music is Agnes ' s, singing. In future years we will look with pride on the announce- ment : SONG RECITAL BY AGNES MARGARET BEATA GERALD Thursday Evening, Nov. 20. 1930.

Management of Celebrated Artists We do not doubt that she will become a second Galli-Curci, for she de- termined this on Thanksgiving, when she listened with bated breath to that noted person. Most of us would prefer Three Little Chestnuts. to the high- er classed songs — Gee! Ain ' t it dark? Agnes is well known among us for her high standing with Mrs. President. We all like candy too, but it does us little good, we can ' t get into her graces. We understand this partiality for our dear Agnes, for she has a wonderful disposition — No wonder Mrs. President picks her out from all of our Piedmont students to send candy to. ' ' All things are possible, so they say. Some people might think that it is impossible to make A ' s, and keep a sweet, good disposition. Agnes has proven to us that this is possible, even in taking History 1. You can account for tha t, I donna know. Agnes used to order everything from ' Sears Roebuck, ' but, now this great company is a thing of the past! At present she orders from — well we won ' t tell family secrets, but she is very ford of camps. Page Thirty-seven Lila Edith Griffin, A. B Royston, Ga. Graduate of Royston High School.

She is incurably athletic. This she invariably gives as the reason for her inability to sit still during a recitation hour. She admits that she is not lazy, for she puts forth energy sufficient to move mountains, yet she is blind to any mountain she has moved. Among the necessary virtues, Justus, ranks the highest to Lila. So great are her appeals for that high virtue that she abso- lutely refuses to give zeros to any body who takes the allowed cut in Gym. We ordinarily think that the Faculty shows good judgment in its actions, but, certainly we are convinced that they have one serious fault at least, else, they would never have placed Lila and Caroline side by side. They had little mercy, indeed, on the poor victims at their side, if you ever suffer the fatigue and boredom as is produced by long services, and if you wish such services shortened by decreasing the amount of song, call on Lila and she will skip every stanza except the last, despite the severe looks of the chaplain. Lila is a pleasant companion for she can sing, she can dance, she can play, and she can talk. She is especially fond of men with red hair. Maybe this is why she wears a tarn and sweater so bright that it hurts your eyes as far as you can see her unless they are shaded. She has been a very popular student through- out her college career. Her work has been creditable, especially in Gym. And for this she is known and represented in Piedmont as a member of the faculty and a student at the same time. We are sure that the future holds much for you, Lila, because of your spirit for the right. Page Thirty-nine Ruby Belle Berryman, A. B Graduate of Royston IIi jl) School. A thing of Intuitu is a joy forever. Royston, Ga. Page Forty Drama League (3 4) ; Y. W. C. A. (I, 2 3) ; Cabinet, (4) ; Honorary member of Protropian Society, (1, 2, 3 4) ; W. F. K. Society, (1, 2, 3 4) ; Fannie and the servant problem, (3). Sbe is the fairest of the fair-a blond indeed. Those marvelous blue eyes of Ruby ' s with their bewitching ' smile have set many a boy ' s head a-whirl, as well as forced them to declare our Ruby, a queen. Ruby has a special fon dness for chemistry which we believe is the reason she so peacefully got along with the Prof, of science. She would never tell us how she bewitched those awful experiments to make them produce such accurate results. From her studies she often calls to her room-mate, Now, Annie Mark, you know this absurd knowledge is not going to be of any practical use to me when 1 am living away down in Sunny California. Ruby has made a special study of Home Economics, and from all accounts she will in the not far distant future put it into use. The fortunate man will possess a most invaluable gem, who claims this Ruby. Ruby has always had the happy faculty of getting on the good side of the Profs., and consequently, studying has been a secondary thought with her. Her pleasing manners and attractive personality have won for her many friends while at Piedmont. Page Forty-one Ruby Jordan, A. B. .Royston, Ga. Graduate of Royston High School A light heart lives long Page Forty-tivo Member of Y. W. C. A.

Is she witty? Well every word that she speeaks produces uproarous laugh- ter. Her wonderful optimistic disposition is her most marked trait. No matter how serious and solemn the occasion, Ruby can always say the word that will set a ripple of laughter afloat. She may be classed as a girl ' s girl, because of her never failing loyality to her frien ds. She has been known to sacrifice her own happiness when the preceptress would not allow the same privilege to her room- mate. A girl in a thousand is she ! Ruby ' s efforts to avoid History One, lasted thru her four years at Piedmont, only was it escaped by taking History at the Univeristy of Georgia in her Senior summer. We will always remember Ruby ' s unassuming apologetic manner. She is often apologizing for some unimagined breach. It is said that one morning Ruby was hurriedly walking up the street reading a letter, all at once she was conscious of knocking against something, she very tearfully exclaimed Oh! do please pardon me. The one receiving the apology was no other than an old gray horse hitched close by the side-walk. In our four years with you, Ruby, we have all learned to love you. We hope that our paths may cross again someday. Page Forty-three Vision (The Class of 1921) Tt is not given every man to climb The lofty mountain, view the spreading plain, And bear that inspiration on thru time ; To thee, Piedmont, so we should attain Some universal vision in thy halls, Our gratitude shall rise in firm refrain; Oh may that glimpse of glory stand, till falls Our weakned fabric, may a faith sublime Sustain our hearts, whatever service calls. Our wide horizon ' s backward, shadowy rim Includes the changing scenes of other years, Of triumphs bright, and errors sad and dim ; The doubtful days of battle calls, of fears For those who went, that others dare not go, And most, of what would be-success or tears — The fiery night of trial, death, and woe. Our work, and play, and friends — our final hymn Is born of all, and sings the faith we know. The misty way before us, faintly seen. Perchance may fail the promise of now. Or deck the threatened waste with sudden green; HoweYr it be, our fame is thine, and thou Shalt move in us in bringing man to God, In touching cooling hand to fevered brow ; Whene ' er the last of us hath sought his sod. May flowering deeds, and folk of happier mien Remain to show where Piedmont students trod. W. LESTER WILSON.

The night was perfect and seemed to share in the happiness which surrounded each one. The banquet hall was beautifully decorated with the class colors, purple and white, together with the dainty purple violets, a fitting scene for so much gayety. Prof, and Mrs. Percy, the class teacher and his wife occupied the seats of honor. Throughout: the courses was utmost light-heartedness and laughter, such as only a witness of a like occasion can realize, but this was sometimes darkened by the shadow of the near-approaching end of school and no one knew what the future held for them. The pleasant evening wore on and at a late hour Nora James, Class presi- dent arose and called on Prof. Percy for a few remarks. After a few opening words regarding the good times which all had enjoyed during the Soph. Year. His talk took on a more serious nature as he outlined for members of the class their duties in school and out in the world and urged them to heartily respond. Great applause greeted Prof. Percy as he took his seat and at that moment a resolve was made in the heart of each present. Miss James again arose and to the great surprise of all called on each for an impromtu toast, original bringing forth in them either their hobby, their inspiraton, work, or favorite study, sport or pastime. The president made an ideal toast — Mistress, displaying a great deal of humor as she introduced each speaker. Page Fifty-one James Flautt Here ' s to all steno ' s ! Here ' s to all typists !

Lois Pace Loren Rav Carlyle was right when he said: Music is the speech of angels. And to her the greatest of the arts My toast is tonight. To all the sports of the universe I pay my due respects.

Summer Gerald Some have toasted studies, Some have toasted friends, Some have toasted hobbies And anything they pleased; But I ' ll say. Here ' s to Basketball — May it seem a fascinating game To every one as it is to me. Bessie Sonner It ' s difficult to make a toast tonight.

Yonah just at twilight. After pitching camp we built a large eampfire and gathered around it to rest. As everyone was tired, quiet prevailed. My head dropped forward, my thoughts became jum- bled, and I felt myself gently borne upward by fairy hands, and at length arrived in the land of the future. J was in the heart of a beautiful, flourishing city, and as I was crossing the street I ran into a gentleman. As he turned to make apologies, I recog- nized my old classmate, William Ensminger who, grasping my hand, exclaimed, Why. Miss Asbury, I ' m so glad to see you, and my search will end here I hope, for I have heard that you are an excellent Latin teacher, and as Miss Marjorie Black, our former teacher, left us quite suddenly last Tuesday, to teach a class of one for life, namely, Mr. William Brown, who, as I ' m sure you have heard, is the champion football player of Georgia. I wonder if you will fill this vacancy? I gladly consented as I had lost my position two months previously on account of illness. I started home, and as I entered my apartment the telephone rang. It was Claude Brown, a properous young banker of the city, who wished me to go to the theatre. I gladly consented. When we arrived and the play began, great was our surprise to recognize in the famous dancer, our old classmate, Florette Roberts. We secured an interview after the performance, and learned that on her last visit to Paris, she had seen and talked with Ruth Stovall, who was a famous artist, and her visitor, Louise Chunn, who was buying her trousseau. While on the visit Ruth and Louise had spent several weeks during the summer at the seashore where they had met Iva Carey and her husband, who were living in a beautiful little cottage, and were very happy. Iva said that she had received a letter from Mae Patterson, who was a mis- sionary in China and was very happy in her work. I felt a gentle tap on my shoulder, and awoke disappointed, to find it all a dream. Page Sixty-five Page Sixty-six Name Favorite siii iini Pastime A inbit ion Leman Anderson .Goll-ey .

This year a complete course has been inaugurated, requiring from four to six years, with B. M. degree awarded. Miss S. P. Spencer, of Meridin, Conn., is director and has been with the college for six years. The department carries full courses of Voice, Piano, Violin and Theory. Miss Isabel Bunkley, of Savannah, Ga., has charge of the Violin depart- ment. Miss Bunkley is a Brenau devotee, being a pupil of Prof. Michaelis. MUSICAL ACTIVITIES Concerts are given by the students during the year, including: Students ' ensemble recitals, voice or piano, and concerts by the Glee Club. The Glee Club furnishes music at Vesper Service on Sunday, and also renders concerts during the year. The work of the Glee Club includes selections from oratorio and opera ; also special attention is given the study of folk song. Page Seventy The Expression Department The expression department of Piedmont College is under the direction of Prof. Addie Green Bass. She has long been with Piedmont and she has given many long hours of faithful service to her. The work of the department has been shown to be of the highest type, by the numerous recitals that have been given by special students of the depart- ment. After witnessing many of the numerous recitals and plays given by the stu- dents of this department, many have expressed the idea that they were rendered in such manner that one would think they were given by professionals. Miss Bass also has charge of the Drama League of Piedmont College and throughout the past few years this organization has done a great work in Piedmont. This year of ' 20- ' 21 has proven that it held many dramatic possibilities from the point of view of the college stage. Early in the autumn the League presented The Loving Cup at a regular meeting. Then followed intensive study of Rose of Plymouth Town, which was given March 18th. The Com- mencement play is The First Lady of the Land. The members showed even more than usual interest in the work of the Drama League, and worked faithfully on most of the assignments. Those who took part in the public presentation of the plays did the best that they could with the parts assigned them. Many of the members have done remarkable work. The idea of the Drama League in Piedmont involves training the individual members in the skillful and effective presentation of various roles, practice in different types of dramatic action, and practical knowledge of the work of stag- ing a play. We consider that this year ' s success is very largely due to the very capable direction of Miss Bass, Professor of Expression, to whom we wish to express our gratitude. Piedmont now gives a degree in expression. Page Se-venty-otfe Home Economics The Home Economics Department is under the direction of Miss Laura A. Waite, Miss Mattie Rampley, assistant in Domestic Science, and Miss Mary Steincipher, assistant in Domestic Art. The department now caries full courses leading to the B. S. H. E. degree. Some of the outstanding features of this department are Home Economics Weeek, class banquets, and the annual exhibition at commencement time. Dur- ing Home Economics Week the department is at home to its friends, the students, and faculty. The class banquets are occasions of high social enjoy- ment to every college student. The exhibit ion of both science and art products at the end of the year shows the ability and progress of the students. These exhibitions are especially interesting from the fact that they are so carefully planned and artistically arranged. The basket exhibition is one of great interest. The styles are so varied and some of the materials used are unusual. The honey-suckle vine and the wild maiden hair fern are both used, which make very beautiful baskets. The long leaf pine needles are also used quite successfully. We glory in our department for the special reason that it is effecting the great Avork of training our girls to be scientific home makers and is really helping them to realize that the ■ mission of the ideal woman is to make the whole world homelike.

GREEX It has been and is the policy of our society to extend a hearty welcome to every new-coiner at Piedmont, who is interested in self-development. Our so- ciety trains every member in the true art of self-expression. Since the time of its organization in 18!)7 it has been an ever-living inspiration in the minds of both old and new members. Our programs consist of debates on topics of national interest, also declama- tions, orations, and musical recitations. We have adopted a new policy this rear of holding a joint meeting with the Protropian Society every fourth week. This custom has proven to be extremely beneficial to both societies. We have also enjoyed much pleasure as well as gained knowledge from the policy of meeting with our honorary members every fourth week. Our society now has enrolled about one hundred active and honorary members. The following is the Twenty-second Anniversary program of our society rendered on November 19th, 1920.

Organ- ized twenty-two years ago, it has made a history of which every memher is proud. Under the splendid leadership this year of Hiram Evans and David Knight the society has grown as never hefore in its history. It now has over one hundred memhers, of which seventy are active and thirty-five are honorary. The introduction of new methods and the inter-society meetings with the J. S. Green have had wonderful results in building up the society. The purpose of the society has always been to train its members to become useful and influential citizens — men of noble ideals, high intellectual percep- tions, and initiative leaders. The weekly programs consisting of debates, ora- tions, and declamations give every member an opportunity for self-expression in public. Subjects of national interest are discussed ; and both sides of every question brought before them, thereby broadening their minds, increasing their knowledge, and training them to think and argue in public. A pure, whole- some and inspiring spirit permeates every meeting and stimulates an ambition of service for their fellowman.

The Legal Club has attained a place of pre-eminence through its activity in promoting justice, law and order throughout the entire community. We venture the confident assertion that no other local tribunal possesses the moral courage to place the most High Dean of Piedmont College on trial. Yet the Legal Club succeeded in doing this, and would have found him guilty of illegal threats against one Marvin Peek had not the majority of the jiiry decided otherwise. Another epoch-making achievement of this organization is the apprehen- sion and trial of a famous boot-legger, one Sith Varning. This offender had long and skillfully evaded all other local guardians of the law, but the Legal Club through its skillful work, entangled him in a network of evidence from which he could not escape. Due to the fact that the verdict was hung, as the chairman of the jury said, Sarah Anne and Hiram must continue to kick against each other in the matrimonial harness indefinitely, although on the testimony of reliable wit- nesses, Sarah Anne was shown to be a notorious flirt, a spendthrift and a man- hater, while Hiram is a drunkard, a gambler, and a wife-beater of the deepest dye. This is all very sad, but such is life. The trials which have been mentioned together with others equally seri- ous in nature, serve to add variety and amusement to college life, while they give the members of the club an opportunity to sharpen their wits in prepara- tion for their future profession.

We tried to show this in our contributions to the mission fund. We hope that another year we can even do better. We are naturally proud of our Y. W. C. A. for it has done so much for our student body. Both the sub-Freshmen and College girls enter into the work with their whole hearts. Enthusiasm runs high in getting up stunt programs for the Blue Ridge fund. Last year we only sent four delegates; but hope to double the number this year. There is not much social service work here to be done; but all of the girls enjoy the play hour with the children, to say nothing of our White Christ- mas gifts. The new cabinet members are planning the ' ; Best year yet ' for our Y. W. next year and we ' re sure that all of the girls are behind them.

Adams Treasurer MEMBERS Misses Helen and Augusta Slayton, Ethel Moore, Mauzee Lattay, Messrs Fred Carter, Lester Wilson, G. L. Orr, Jack Blackwell, Jessie Lindley. The measure of a man ' s world is the measure of his soul. The mission Study Class is composed of fourteen members who meet to- gether each Sunday for the purpose of studying modern mission and learning something of the great missionary problems of today. The class took up the study by W. E. Doughty. The Call of the World. This book, true to its title, gives a challenge to the great tasks and America ' s part in this challenge. They have had t he privilege from time to time of hearing some interest- ing speakers address the class, adding courage and inspiration to each one. The class over-sustained the life of one child in the European Child Feed- ing Drive. Another purpose of the class is personal work. It is combined with the Christian Vocation League and Student Volunteer Band. Page Ninety-livo The Carolina Club There is no need for Carolinians to feel like strangers in a foreign land, when they come to Piedmont; the Carolina Club will take them in and make them feel at home. The Club is a social organization, and finds its chief work in promoting a sense of good-fellowship among students from both North and South Carolina, and in furthering the interests of our college in the two states. We have our share of the social, musical, and dramatic talent in school, which makes possible a number of delightful picnics, parties, and entertain- ments. Social activities in such a State group help to make us acquainted with people from all parts of our own states, to further a good understanding between representatives from the wooded highlands, the level coast, and the rolling mid-land, and to establish associations which shall be of lasting value in the future. As students begin to look beyond college, and gain some dim idea of a life outside, which they must make for themselves, they place more and greater value upon the friends they have made in school. Doubtless in years to come we shall consider that the associations we formed in the Carolina Club, and simi- lar societies, are the dearest of all our possessions. Page Ninety-three Florida Alabama Club Sixteen students came to Piedmont this year f rom the Land of Flowers and the Land of Rest. These students being bound together in a geographical way deemed it good to strengthen the tie in one of friendship ; accordingly they re-organized the Florida-Alabama Club, and elected the following officers; Miss Agnes Gerald, President ; Miss Beatrice Muriel, Vice-President ; Mr. H. R. Maddox, Secretary-Treasurer. The Club held its annual picnic in October, and has in many ways tried to supplement the social life of the home by bringing the members together from time to time and getting them acquainted.

From the manner in which the team swept the gridiron for victory after victory, it justly won the name of the Whirlwind of the Green and Gold. From the first, Coaches Forrester and Ray, worked with a will and succeeded in developing a marvelous team fully instilled with the fighting spirit. Piedmont opened the season by winning from Locust Grove by the score of 7 to 0. The game was decidedly Piedmont ' s from the start, as Locust Grove was seldom able to make a first down, and the ball was kept almost continuously in the enemy ' s territory, where she fought bravely the plunges of their oppon- ents; and it was the beginning of the fourth quarter, when Maurer carried the ball across for the first touchdown of 1020 team. Piedmont was again in easy distance of the goal when the final whistle blew. For its next battle Piedmont went down to Gordon where it was not able to display its full strength on account of the injuries some of the men received in a scrimmage with the A. and M. three days before, and so Piedmont dropped this game to the champions of the G. 1. A. A. by the score of 21-6. On the following Saturday, Piedmont overwhelmed Gibson Mercer by the score of 74-0, Piedmont scored two touchdowns in the first five minutes of play by some long, sensational runs. In the last part of the game, the Piedmont reserves were substituted, who continued to play the game with the same spirit of the varsity. The next game was Piedmont ' s red letter game, against our old rivals, Dahlonega. Although she came over revelling in a 126 to victory scale of Lanier Unviersity on the Saturday before, she was completely humbled by the Whirlwind of the Green and Gold, who swept them off the field for a 22 to victory. Piedmont ' s line starred in this game in that she held the enemy for one first down the entire game, Luke Ray, quarter was the most outstanding feature of the game. On the first kick-off he received the ball on his own five- yard line and ran 95 yards through the opposing team for a touchdown. Maurer and Knight also were stars in this game. The next team that Piedmont met on the gridiron was Georgia Tech, Fresh- men, in Atlanta. Before this heavier and more experienced team we had to bow in a defeat of 21 to 0. The Piedmont lads fought bravely, but were un- able to stem the tide of their onrushes. Piedmont closed the season with a clean-cut victory romping over the Olemson Freshmen to the tune of 19 to 0. Every man played football as he _J j Page Ninety-nine held Clemson to three first downs and allowed them to come no nearer their goal than the 40-yard line. Roy Cooper — Captain and Center Red, a three-year letter man, proved a very capable leader for the Green and Gold team, as he had a friendly disposition, and kept them work- ing together harmoniously. He was a tower of strength on both the defense and offense. We all hope to see him back with ns next year. Jefferson Hill, Manager and Right Guard Jeff is also a three-year letter man, and he proved a valuable asset to the strength of the line. He succeeded in obtaining a well balanced football schedule under adverse conditions. Much credit is due him, and we expect to see him fighting with the whirlwind next year. Zack Henderson, Right Tackle and Captain-elect Zack is one of the fiercest tackles Piedmont has ever had, and also was a very strong man on the defense. This was his second year football at Piedmont, and we are expecting him back next fall for his senior year and will be found covering his record with glory on the gridiron. Cohen Hall, Right End Hall also played his second year of football with Piedmont this year. Hall at end is a very consistent player in a veritable 155-pound streak of grit and determination. He is adept at receiving forward passes and rounding the flanks, throwing the enemy for losses. His pluck and aggressiveness will help make next season a success. Carl McClain, Left Guard Red was a good scrapper who could be depended on to make a hole in the opposing line, or stop any plunge directed at him. This was his first year of football at Piedmont and we hope to see him with the team next fall. Fred Forester, Fullback Unfortunately, Fred did not get here for the first of the season, and we missed his services in the first few games. He played in a few of the later games, and put up a nice brand of ball. His work was especially noteworthy in our last game against Clemson. This also was Fred ' s second year with the Piedmont eleven, and we all hope to see him fill his place there for several years until his graduation, adding glory and honor to his Alma Mater, as well as to himself. Page One Hundred Leslie Brown, Quarter Leslie, although about the lightest weight on the team, was one of the hard- hitting warriors of the season. He was all muscle and action, and he brought off many successful and very pretty gains for his team. He played at quarter, and, although his first year in that position, he made a dandy little field gen- eral. Leslie has a level head and is not excitable. He calls the signals rapidly and distinctly, and has all the material for a splendid quarter. He has three more years at Piedmont, and in that time should develop into a wonderful player. We all extend the glad hand to him, and watch for brilliant results when he returns to us, next year. Dillard, Utility Backfield Barnard Dillard played in some of the best games this season, and played splendid ball. He was capable of stepping into the shoes of any backfield man, doing his share of the work, and gaining a good share of the glory. He would hit a line hard and low, and as for a sure tackle and snappy interference, there was not a better man on the team. We expect him with us next year, and look for big things from him. Lindley, Guard This was Lindley ' s first year of football, but by the end of the season he had developed into a good, steady guard. He only weighs a little over 200 pounds, and he made it hard for the opposing team to run a play over this human bulwark. Next season, with the experience of this year ' s play, he should make a very valuable man. Here ' s hoping that he will come back to us. Jones, End Jones has proved a very valuable man on the squad, and played creditably in several games of this season. He had the misfortune to have his arm wrenched in the game against Gordon, but he would not quit, although he suffered agony, and played the entire game. B takes nerve like this to make a real football player. Jones has several years before him, and we predict that he is going to cite his name in the house of football fame, before he ends his football career. We hope to see him back in harness again next year on the Piedmont gridiron. Dewey Justice, Left Tackle Dewey was one of the best men on the squad, although it was his first year. Aggressive, strong, reliable are the words which express the kind of player our left tackle is. We all look forward to seeing him again in action next fall help- ing to make the whirlwind of the Green and Gold famous. Page One Hundred One Loren Ray, Left End Loren has been with the team for three years, and we all know a better end has never been found anywhere. Ray was the swiftest man on the team and a splendid man on the receiving end of a forward pass. He shall be back next year and we shall have the joy of seeing this stellar man fight for the Green and Gold. David Knight, Right Half David played with Piedmont the year before this, and proved himself of a half of much ability. This year he showed the same qualities and proved him- self to be one of the mainstays of the team. He holds himself with the best when it comes to punting and kicking goals. We expect much from him in the re- maining years he has at Piedmont. Adrian Maurer, Left Half Maurer played his first season with us this year, coming from a high school in Ohio. He was a star in practically every game, for when he hurled his husky form through the line or off tackle he was never downed before reeling off a considerable gain. He also was one of the best open field runners Pied- mont has ever had, and we certainly hope to see him back with us next year. James King, Fullback Jim is a good line plunger, and he was a hard man to stop when he threw his weight and strength against the enemy ' s line. He was a good steady player who could be depended upon to deliver the goods at any time, and could play equally as well in the line as in the backfield. We hope he will return next year and be on the gridiron, playing with the Piedmont eleven. Luke Ray, Quarterback Luke was a veritable streak of action upon the field and a splendid man for the pilot position. He had excellent judgment in directing the plays, and was also able to instil encouragement and confidence in the men. His best game was against Dahlonega, in which he received the kickoff on his own 5- vard line and ran 95 yards for a touchdown. Page One Hundred Tvoo Page One Hundred Three Basketball 1920-21 Although the team was light and there were several new men on the line- up. Piedmont had a very fast and promising team this year. The season was opened by defeating Lanier University by the tune of 47-19. Graham, the mid- get of Piedmont ' s team, was high scorer with a total of 17 of our 47 points. The next team to be defeated was our old rival. Southeastern Christain College. This team which made us bite the dust last year, was defeated by the score of 40-26. The Piedmont team was out to avenge the defeat suffered last year, and though the game was fast throughout, the Piedmont team started off with a rush and kept the lead through to the finish. The next game was perhaps the best of the season. This game with South- ern Dental College was one that would make you sit up and take notice. It started with a rush and was fast and furious throughout. The winner of this game was in doubt from start to finish, there never being more than five points separating the two teams. When the final whistle blew the score stood 29-28, with Southern Dental in the lead. Owing to the cancellation of several games and other unavoidable reasons the season was cut short. The only road trip made by the Owls was made to Clinton, S. C. where the Owls were defeated by the fast team of Presbyterian College by the score of 22-25. Though the Owls thus broke even on the num- ber of games won and lost, they scored 137 points against 99 scored by their opponents. The Academy team met and defeated Xachoochee Institute by the score of 39-12. Though the visitors played hard, they were no match for the home team and the scrubs were put in and held their own. Prom the Academy team we hope to develop some strong contenders for next year ' s honors. ' Little Graham. the Piedmont midget, was a letter man at the right for- ward position. Graham played a fast and classy brand of ball, and by his quickness and small size was able to avoid his larger opponents. By next year he will be a valuable man and will make some one hustle to beat him out of a forward position. Bill Adams. one of our veteran players, was back in his position as left forward. Though he came in late he had no trouble in making his place. Bill is a good player and a high scorer, and one who has had years of experi- ence. Fred Forrester, also a veteran of last year, played his old consistent game as left guard. Fred not only held his oponent ' s score low. but was a valuable man in play formation and scored a good number of points along with the other men on the team. Page One Hundred Four David Jones, one of last year ' s scrubs, played in the tip off position. David has the height and weight, and with a little more experience will make one of the best centers that has ever been at Piedmont. Maurer, the good natured chap from Canton, 0., played in the right guard position. Though inexperienced, Maurer held his place against all opposition and played a good consistent game throughout the entire season. Mr. Zock, the long, lanky football player from Maysville, was the general utility man. Mr. Henderson played in all three positions and filled them all very well. Next year somebody will have to hustle to keep Mr. Zock from filling a forward position. Gerald, one of last year ' s letter men, played in the forward and center positions, but on account of the number of games played and an injury to his knee, was unable to play enough to make a letter. Among the scrubs, Stineci pher, Justice, Frank Smith, Bill Holden and Mad- dox deserve honorable mention. These are all good material and will be good stuff to build a strong team next year. If you come across a good basketball player send him to Piedmont and help us to have a winning team next season.

This was Piedmonts first year of girls ' hasket-ball played under hoys ' rules. There was but one member of the team that had ever played with boys ' rules and the team had to practically learn the game from the ground up. After about six weeks of preliminary training, the squad was divided up and some pretty strenuous scrimmages whipped the team into shape for the first game with Draughons ' Business College of Atlanta., played at Domorest. The visi- tors came to us with the reputation of one of the fastest girls team in the state and Piedmont was anxious to beat them. Due to the inaccuracy of our goal shooting, we were defeated, 13-8. Our next two games with Southeastern College were cancelled and the two teams were never able to again agree on dates. The second game played in Athens against the Athens Y. W. C. A. was by far the most important game of the season. The Y. W. C. A. have had the same team together, with one exception, for the past four years. They were coached in the five man defensive style of game and were exceptionally good performers in all stages of the game. They are rated as the fastest and most finished girls team in the south, and have made a record of a point a minute during the past two years. The week before we played them, they defeated Draughons Business College 38-12. Piedmont took the floor with all the odds against them but with the grim determination to do the school justice, and when the game ended 15-9, in favor of Y. W. C. A. it was with the satisfaction of knowing that a bunch of young girls playing their second game of boys basket-ball, had held the fastest team in the south to less than half as any team Athens had played in two- years. Although Piedmont held the low end of the score, it was a victory. The third game played, against University of Ga. in Athens, showed our girls in the finest form during the season. The team worked like veterans, and displayed flashes of the fastest and most finished team work of any girls team the writer has ever seen. Although Georgia was not classed as high as Draughons or Athens Y. W. C. A. yet it was not a light antagonist by any means. Piedmont outplayed them in every stage of the game and won by a score of 22 — 13. Our last game of the season against Draughon ' s Business College, played in Atlanta, almost broke the hearts of every Piedmont player, as the game ended 9 — 8, in favor of Draughon ' s. Alibis could be in order, but the girls played hard, fast basket-ball, and had the misfortune to lose by one foul goal. The girls who will wear the P are: Strickland (capt). Ahernathy (mgr,), Griffin, Bell, Hutchinson, Shirley, and Muriel. Page One Hundred Eight Too much cannot be said for the work of Strickland at center. She was not only a good jumper and could get the tip off more often than not, but she was one of the most consistent goal tossers. She was aggressive, guarded well, and in every way was an exceptionally good captain. Jessie will be back next year, and we trust she will be at her old pivot position. Abernathy. as a player and manager is among the best. It would be hard to find a harder tighter and one who followed the ball more and fought harder every second she was playing. She would add materially to the strength of any team. Eloise will be back next year, and in her aggressive, loyal manner, fighting for the team and Piedmont. Griffin, the one senior on the team, will be greatly missed, for her natural ability, long experience at basket-ball and pep are assets to any team. She was the surest shot on the team, and hard to guard. As a running mate with Abernathy or Hutchinson at forward she was a dangerous offensive player. Hutchinson was, perhaps, the most finished player on the team, being good at center and better at guard and best at forward. Dimples came to us from Fulton High of Atlanta and had no trouble at all in making the team. Her guarding was very close and an opposing forward had all they could do to take a shot at the goal. At forward, the position she is most naturally fitted for, she was always dangerous with her long accurate shooting. We are expecting great things of Irma next year. Bell, our big backguard. was without doubt the best girl guard in this part of the country. She had two habits that the opposing team could never sanction; one, never allowing her forward to take a shot at the goal, and another, leaving her position long enough to drop in a long goal, just to show the opposing team that she could. Another mean way in which she acted was to take the ball away from the entire opposing team whenever it came in- to dangerous territory. Mary Louis would be a star on any team. Watch her next year. Shirley was by far the fastest player on the squad. She would follow the ball like a blood hound on a trail and her passing was always accurate. She is at her best when she is playing guard, but also a very dangerous play- er at forward. With Mary Louis on one wing ami Madge on the other of the guard positions, the opposing team is sure to encounter some difficulty Muriel came to lis from the high school state champions of Florida and showed all the class of a champion guard. With speed, aggressiveness, ac- curate passing, she had all the requirements of a star basketball player. Although Dover didn ' t make a letter, a write-up on basketball would be incomplete without special mention of her. This is her first year at basketball, the limited number of games was all that kept her from making a letter. She developed from a rather mediocre player at the first of the season to one of Page One Hundred Nine the best on the team by the end. Give Marie more experience and she will make any man ' s team. Any forward would experience a great deal of diffi- culty making goals with her as a guard. But the best thing about Marie is her loyalty and pep. She was never for Marie, always for the team. Look out for her next year. However, no matter what good material one has to work with, a team cannot be developed without scrimmages, and one cannot have scrimmages without the so-called scrubs that development of the whole hearted loyalty, the unselfish support and the ever-pleasant pep of Carrithers, Pace, Bow- den, Faelkel. Jordan, Askin. not enough can be said. Carrithers, Pace, and Bowden will make some girls work mighty hard for places next year. Piedmont expects all but Griffin and Muriel to return next year, and with the wealth of material to build a team for 1921-1922, we should be represented by the fastest bunch of girls on a basketball team in the south. Page One Hundred Ten Page One Hundred Eleven Baseball There are many branches of sports in which Americans participate. There are three which are termed the major sports at nearly every college and Uni- versity in the United States. These three are football, basketball, and base- ball. The greatest of these is baseball. There are more games of baseball played each year than any other sport. More people take part in baseball games and more see baseball games each year than any other sport. Therefore baseball is well named and is universally recognized as onr National Pas- time. The foregoing facts being true one can easily see why Piedmont puts into the field each year an exceptionally strong nine for the size of her student body. The 1920 baseball season was in every way a success. The team came out from an exceptionally hard schedule with an average above 500. Much of the teams success is due to the pitching of Cicero Forrester the huge lefthander. The official 1921 schedule will hardly be opened when this article goes to press but baseball practice has been underway for three weeks, with the most favorable conditions possible existing and the brightest prospects for a win- ning team in years. Coach Harry B. Forrester starts his third year as head coach. The club he has brought together reminds us of that wonderful combination back in 1912, which consisted of Dillinger, Carpenter, Soesbee, Dillard, Powell, Cun- ningham, and Springer. It was the first team Piedmont ever boasted of, but this year ' s team runs it a close second. Seven letter men have returned. They are H. Forrester, pitcher, F. Forrester, outfielder, Capt. Hall, second base, Ray, outfielder, Knight, shortstop, and Holden, infielder. Also Adams the 1st baseman. The first five hit well over .300 last season. Capt. Hall leading with an average of .370 and Adams a close second with .368. The new men who will be used this season to round out the team and who will make P ' s in all probability are, D. T. Cannon, the midget short- stop, and Maurer a third baseman. Both these men will hit .300 in any league. Reynolds. Justice, Sappington, and Dillard will all be used. The burden of the Hurling will be upon Forrester, Ray, Blackwell, Stiencipher, and Henderson. Unless the writer misses his guess by a large margin the 1921 season will be long remembered by Piedmont, Never was there a cleaner bunch of athletes, who are not only real men, but are players of ability, gather- ed together than the 1921 baseball squad. One thing Piedmont stands for is clean athletics, and this is another reason why we are proud of our 1921 team. The roster consists of Forrester, Ray, Blackwell, Stiencipher, and Hender- son, pitchers; Knight and Justice catchers; Adams 1st base; Hall 2nd base; Cannon shortstop: Maurer 3rd base; Outfielders are Forrester, Reynolds. Sap- pington, Dillard, and Holden. fMMMesiannBniWi Page One Hundred Twelve Book IV Literarj) ana Otherwise Page One Hundred Thirteen Page One Hundred Fourteen Paa_e One Hundred Fifteen Page One Hundred Sixteen Page One Hundred Seventeen Freshman — Where do jail-birds come from!
