Your pardon, please, did you say Sister Finch ( We see now, upon closer inspection, that this is our Sister — she of the pre- cise manner, the gentle voice, and mild eye. We would not have her changed in the least, if some good fairy were to make us the offer gratis. For what would the campus be without the dulcat ( ?) notes of her sweet (?) viohn! How could we live without her presence Away, Fairy, and leave our Sister to us in peace — just as she is! aailep Carlisle olger CENTRAL, S. C.

Four years ago Doc landed on the campus and registered as one of the sons from the progressive little city of Central, S. C. Since his entrance in college, he has been a great lover of English poetry, especially that of Kipling. Like Orlando, he writes poetry of his fair Rosalind and sticks it about on trees. It is said that In the spring a young man ' s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love, but this young man, from all we know, lives in a dream of fair women, Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. He is especially interested in houses of the old Colonial style, and what could be more romantic to such an artist than to spoon on a bit of clover in the moonlight somewhere! Ask Doc. 25

Luke is from Piedmont, S. C. All who have traveled widely are (|uite familiar with that thriving little city hid away in a cuj -like valley of upper South Carolina. Luther is his real name, but the girls all call him Luke. Since entering college, he has given much time to poetry. He never writes it, but just lets it pass over his .soul in inarticulate language. Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard are sweeter. Luke is also planning a trip to Seattle. He expects to go with Mr. Jew Harden and ofler to the public for sale that very useful commodity, soap. This distinguished salesman informs us that each box will contain six cakes of the best soap made, one bottle of perfume, one set of teaspoons and a toothbrush, all for 50 cents.

Orangeburg County claims Felkel, not because she wants him, but because she is anxious to put the best face on a bad fact. Music is a passion with Felkel. He utilizes all his spare time in studying it, and has made sufficient progress in the art to distinguish with a tolerable degree of accuracy the difference between Yankee Doodle and Jesus, Lover of My Soul, provided the latter is played on a pipe organ in a church and the former by a brass band in a circus parade. Felkel has not decided definitely whether he will be a truck farmer or the conductor of a crack orchestra. 24

Yes, this is the Glee Club Manager! No doubt you have heard of hiin. No? You should read the papers more, for they are full of him and Teddy. The he has made quite a reputation for himself as Manager, he has even eclipsed that reputation, by the greater fame gained as Chief cook and bottle washer of the Glee Club. He is good at driving a bargain: never losing his temper, but mildly remarking, You know, sir, you should not charge so much. Thiis he appeals to reason. His motto is: If you have no reason your- self, appeal to the reason that lies in other men, and it will rise in majesty to make you feel as tho you had some. 3fame£i arbin lcnn CHESTER, S. C.

The first time we ever saw Shug was when he was going up in the bell tower looking for the English room. But he has learned many things since, for a word to the wise is sufficient, and this young student has developed into one of the brightest stars of the Class of ' 09. Shug lived down at Prof. Rembert ' s in his Fresh- man year and was very fond of sugar. Learn this lesson from him: Whenever you put sugar in your coat pocket, be sure there is no hole. For, a trail of sugar from your room to the diningroom is a pretty good sign that you are the man. So beware! To be for- warned is to be forearmed. Moral: A little hole may bring you an immortal name. 26
