Oliver Carlisle Bennett Greer, S. C. How this spring of love rcsemblclh The uncertain glory of an April day, Which now shows all the beauty of the sun, And by and by a cloud takes all away.

Bennett, the silent. But that does not mean he is not thinking of Her. The Her ' ' changes constantly, but this does not keep him from taking it seriously. Ben is a very early riser, getting up at six o ' clock every morning— for what, no one knows, unless it be, to get the fire burning brightly for his roommate when he chooses to arise, generally about eight-thirty. Sam Orr Black Spartanburg, S. C. Bowed and bent as the mighty oak. And full of ivind as its branches. Corresponding Secretary, Monthly Orator, Second Censor, Recording Secretary of Calhoun Liter- ary Society. Speaker on preliminary Wofford- Emory Debate, ' 09.

Sammy is another one of the Spartanburg boys, and the most handsome of the the whole bunch. He never did try to hoodoo a professor, and never attempted to answer a question indiffer- ently, as if he knew all about the subject. A living joke is distasteful to him. It might be well to mention just here also that Sam is one of the future great physicians of his class. He expects to emi- grate to Jupiter and improve the sanitary condition of that planet. 22

James M. Barr Leesville, S. C. Jim entered our class in the Junior year and would have finished with us had not his eyes failed only a few months before graduation. Regretting very much that we have lost him and extending to him our sincerest sympathy, we hope that he may yet recover his eye-sight suffi- ciently to finish his course in Wofford College. Leonard Porter Anderson, Richburg, S. C. Like a flower that cannot all unfold. Member of Preston Literary Society. iMember of Y. M. C. A. Cabinet. This face certainly looked simple, surelj ' we have seen it before. O, yes, this is Anderson, the Porter Anderson. He was in a class ahead of us, but when he saw us he decided he wanted to be our Por- ter, hence he dropped aside and waited for us. He has made us a good one and we gladly recommend him for such services.

Maxie McBryde Brooks . . . Belton, S. C. There goes the parson, oh illustrious spark. Entered 1906. President Freshraan Class, ' 06- oj. Dropped out ' 07-08. Re-entered in fall of 1908. Second Censor, First Critic, and President of Carlisle Literary Society. Treasurer Y. M. C. A. ' 09-10; Member Y. M. C. A. Cabinet, ' lo- ' ii. Member Inter-Society Committee, ' lo- ' ii. Parson, gentle reader, is not near so stub- born as he looks; he has a big heart, plenty of brains, and the greatest supply of jokes that any Methodist preacher ever dared carry. He has already accepted work as circuit rider in the South Carohna Confer- ence and it is said that he is beating the h-he-heathen out of that particular district. We thought he would because the parson is a good old d-d-e-dev-de- viser. Theodore Hodges Campbell, Mullins, S. C. Manhood, lohen verging into age, grows thoughtful. Entered 1904. Dropped out ' o6- ' o9. Y. M. C. A. Editor Bohemian i909- ' io. Alumni Editor Jour- nal ' lo- ' ii. Vice-President College State Press Association, ' lo- ' ii. Class Prophet. Camp doesn ' t belong to this class as you can readily see from his expression, just dropped in to take a course in the etymology of words and tech- nicahties of parliamentary rules. Camp is all right, but we have never been able to see his point of argu- ment. However, some people do and Camp will no doubt make a specialty of convincing people that the Latin gerundive is of more benefit to man than is the perfect tense. 23
