He consulted his wisdom and dropped out of college for one year, thus placmg himself m a progressive and rising class. His good qualities were here recognized, and he soon forged to the front as one of the leaders in the development of the class. He possesses marked talents for reporting religious meet- ings, and is fully capable of writing up a twenty-minute sermon in seventy words, rnak- ing prominent mention of all the essentials.

CRAWFORD MAYS EARLE, JR. Spartanburg, S. C. dare do all that may become a man; IVIw dares do more is none. First Critic Calhoun Literary Society ; Bohemian Staff, ' 11- ' 12; Journal Staff, ' 12- ' 13; Secretary Journal Staff, ' 12- ' 13; Class Football, ' lO- ' ll, •11- ' 12, ' 12- ' 13; Class Track Team, ' lO- ' ll ; Manager Varsity Track, ' 12- ' 13; Class Basket-ball, ' 11- ' 12, ' 12- ' 13; Mem- ber College Council, ' 12- ' 13; Class Historian, ' 12- ' 13. Long will we seek for one of his congenial nature and pleasing disposition. Mays be- gan his college career by fooling the faculty into believing that he is a genius, and, there- fore, he has had easy sailing ever since. However, Mays is a conscientious student and deserves credit for his success. His attendance at the First Baptist has rapidly decreased during the last year. Can you ex- plain why? 21 WALTER YOUNG COOLEY Leesville, S. C. Born for good looks, but bad luck over- took him. Entered ' 11; Member of Preston Literary Society. Bogus, no one knows how he came by his name, but he has it all right. Bogus is one of those additions w hich comes to a class during its four years ' course. He doesn ' t show off much, but when you scratch under the surface you find a true man.

DANIEL LAURIE EDWARDS MULLINS, S. C. Oft on the drapt led turf at ease I sit. and play with similies. Entered ' 10; Monthly Orator, First and Second Critic, and President, Carlisle Literary Society; Contributor to Journal; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet, ' 12- ' 13; Winner Poem Medal, ' 12; Winner Society Essay Medal, ' 12; Literary Editor Journal; Member Wofford Council; Class Poet. Behold the poet Lauri-et Latin student of his class. Picture him when thrice the cock foretells the approach of Matin pondering o ' er some quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore. D. L. is America ' s coming poet whom the class recognizes as the rival of Poe. He doesn ' t mean to be dignified over his thoughts of poetic aspirations, though his walk leads us to that belief. We predict that he will some day write a famous poem in which a bird will quoth, Think of his Journal contributions nevermore. JOHN ASH BURY EDWARDS Seneca, S. C. The glass of fashion and the mold of form. The observed of all obscn-ers. Entered ' 11; Member Calhoun Literary Society. Behold Marguerite, The daily hint from Paris ! The girls regard him as the redeem- ing feature of Turner ' s Rest Room ; and he never disappoints the fair sex. He cares very little, however, for these uninteresting wemen who shower their glances upon hini; but spends his time thinking of how last year ' s Senior charges are getting on without his helping hand. He hails from Seneca, and bestowed a short part of his exciting young life upon the university in the little town to our right Greenville. His chief vacation pastime is summer school and flirting. 23
