Jew hailed from Clover, S.C. Four years ago he struck this campus, and has since developed into a marvelous business man. He is a clothier of the fii ' st water, and keeps the boys posted on all the latest fantastic fads of fashion. When it comes to accurate measuring, he is there with the goods, for he fit several members of the faculty. Jew ' s latest scheme is to go to Seattle, WaShing- tion, next summer. He expects to work his way selling the newest things in kitchen furniture, such as breadboards, combination rolling- pins, and dippers. In fact, he will be able to fui ' nish the modern housewife with everything useful from a hair pin to a gattling gun. CaglueU l incent HapcS DILLON, S. C. Some feelings are to mortals given With less of earth in them than heaven. Charter Member, First Censor, Second Critic, Carlisle Literary Society. Grass was captured in the swamps of Marion, after several hours ' chase with hounds and horn. The taming process has been very successful (?) considering his pri.stine wildness. He says ne ' er a word, except when the pain of necessity strikes him, then brevity is his chief aim. Has a happy faculty of always plumbing the pass line. 27

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.

A; Manager Senior Class Baseball Team; Class Ball Team, 1908=09; Class Football Team, 1906=09; Chi Phi Fraternity. 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

Cap is an apt pupil of the man who taught Overexertion is a thorn in the flesh, and he also tries to carry out his ttachings; for he spends most of his time trying the double-backward side somersault. Am sure many years won ' t go by before we see our dear Old Cap doing the flying trapeze stunts in Smith ' s Greater Shows. lie will fill his spectators full of horror when he takes his final Fhght from Heaven to Hades. We certainly hope he will land safelv. SPARTANBURG, S. C. A good strong character, with independence and force.

It is not possil)le to classify Hicks. He is not tall, and he is not short; he is not fat, and he is not lean; he is not brilliant, and he is not dull; he is not good, and he is not bad— he is either in medias res in all things or else he is sic semper tyrannis. Or is he e pluribus ummf Anyway, he is something like that. Hicks will enter the legal profession with a hop, skip and jump. He hopes to be able to punsue his studies under the tutorship of Abraham Ruef, the well known San Francisco lawyer and, up to a short time ago, suc- cessful gi-after. 28
