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

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.

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

Exchange Editor Journal, ' lo- ' ii. Class Football Team, ' oS- ' op; ' 09- ' lo. Junior-Soph. Football Team, ' 09. Lord Charles Heber Carlisle! Behold him! Fail not to view every detail of his wonderful face, look at the beautifully shaped nose, and the marvel- ously strong expression of the upper lip. But don ' t you dare let him know you are the least inter- ested in him; for he is such a modest chap! His voice actually blushed one time when he was called vipon in the class-room. He has been accused of being unnecessarily humble, but why not call that one of his charms? And then, too, he is such a smart bojM Thomas Jefferson Carter. .Union, S. C. Work is my recreation, The play of faculty. ' ' ' ' Member Preston to the Journal. Literary Society. Contributor Tom hails from somewhere down the line. Just how far down we do not know. Anywaj he came up the line one day and entered college never to be downed again, but instead to prove the greatest hustler of the class. Tom doesn ' t talk much but says that he has learned for a fact that the rooster crows for midnight every night in the college year. He cannot prove this by us but we do know that Tom has been seen leaving the newspaper office in the wee sma ' hours of the night. He will some day no doubt be editor of the News Before Day. 24
