Crum is the Cassius of the Class of ' 09. He has a lean and hun- gry look,.... he reads many tiptops, and looks quite through the deeds of men. He is a great behever in what he calls the axiom. Beauty itself doth of itself persuade the eyes of men without an orator. Being very susceptible, he is constantly being persuaded himself. His first serious business will be the nefarious work of in- ducing so me poor, unfortunate girl to become Mrs. Crum. Crum says that without a Mrs. Crum there can come no little crum of comfort into his life. Walttv Clpbc Currp OWINGS, S. C. ' ■Sweet liird that shun ' st the noise of folly.

Curry looks well, thinks well, speaks well, sings well, makes love well, and dresses exti ' emely, extraordinarily well, but — Would to God thou and I knew where a commodity of good names were to be bought. The end and sole motive of Curry ' s life is clothes. He has got Thomas Carlyle ' s British Dandy skint a block, when it comes to fashionable gent ' s wearing apparel. Any ui)-t()-date tailor in need of a model will do well to see Curry. 20

arlem iLonggtreet Creecf) BAEJ WELL, S. C. Blessings on him who invented sleep, the mantle that covers all hnnian thought. Preston Literary Society. Creech is from Barnwell County. Hurrah for Creech! We do not know anything about Creech!! Creech is a mystery!!! Creech is the nth power of the unknown, the unfathomable!!!! All hail to Creech!!!!! He eats, sleeps, walks and talks like an ordinary mortal, but on certain occasions the nurse seizes upon him, and he spins out poetry — my, how the rhymes do hum! Creech expects to take the place of Frank T. Stanton on the staff of The Atlanta Constitu- tion. i:!)oma£i iLipgtomfa Coleman NEWMARKET, S. C. Life ' s a jest, and all things show it, I thought so once, and now I know it. Member of Calhoun Literary Society; Third Critic, Recording Secretary, Second Censor; Member of Class Baseball Team. T. L., as the Converse lassies affectionately call him, is a typical looking college sport. He wears his hat at an angle of 30°, the sin of which cannot be determined numerically, but the sign, gesthet- ically ( ?) speaking, is that he is always jolly and ready for a lark. He has not determined his life work, as yet, but his friends say they suspect him of secretly preparing himself to sell Dr. Scott ' s Little Early Riser pills — at 1.5 cents per box. Luck to him, and hurrah! for Dr. Scott. 19

30victter jWanning Cubb SPARTANBURG, S. V. I have no other but a woman ' s reason; I think so, I ecause I ihink.so. Charter Member of Carlisle Literary Society. Cudd is from the city of Spartanburg. Quietly and unostentatiously has he pursued his work at Wofford during the past four years. He has had but one object in view— his diploma. What a diploma represents, Cudd has no idea, nor cares to have. What he wants is a diploma, a pure, unadulterated sheepskin. Other ' s may choose what course they may, says Cudd, but as for me— give me a di- ploma, or give me death. Cudd will devote the first two years after his graduation to the framing of his sheepskin. Afterward, he will play the part of Jesse James in a popular-priced comedy companj ' . iHarion Bargan, f r. SPARTANBURG, S. C. Go slow, and carry a big stick. Freshman Delegate to Student Volunteer Movement, ' 06; Monthly Orator, ' 07; First Critic, Preston Literary Society; Treasurer, Pres= ident Y. M. C. A.; Chi Phi Fraternity. In Marion we find the somber, thoughtful type. He never l)V any manner of means, nor under any circumstances, allows his words to run away with his thoughts (O- He is a striking example of the power of mind over matter, for the inquiring state of his mind has resulted in a body of decidedly question-mark propensities. In the near future Marion hopes to go to China, or develop, at home, his great musical talent. He is undecided, and while he pon- ders the question, still thinks upon matrimonial lines. 21
