)enior CI ass Paul Kirkley Cauthen kershaw, s. c. am never al anchor, 1 never shall he; I am sailing the glass of Infinity ' s sea. Member Preston Literary Society; Mem- ber Pipe Dreamers ' Club. To every youth there comes a crisis in which he either accepts a college life of refinement and culture, or takes a chance of fighting life ' s bat. ties alone. Paul was loo wise to risk the latter although, I daresay, he would have succeeded well, because he is naturally gifted with a good- natured humor that wins friends anywhere he goes. He has proved himself to be a sincere friend and a man of genuine worth during his col- lege career, and with his splendid business abili- ties, he should make a brilliant success in this world. David Heber Dantzler, A.B., A.M. PARLER, S. C.

Editor Wofford College Journal; Winner Journal Essay Medal, ' 18; Secretary Ju- nior Class; Advertising Manager Wof- ford College Journal; Member Gold Bar Club; Member A.M. Degree Club. Among the members of the Class of 1919 there can be found no truer gentleman or more worthy friend than Heber. Although quiet and unas- suming he has made many friends among both faculty and students. As he stood among the first in his class in scholarship, no one was sur- prised to hear that he had won his commission at Camp Zachary Taylor, for he always suc- ceeds in his undertakings. So far he has escaped the wiles of the fair sex but ere many years pass we feel that Cupid will mark him for his own. We wish him the greatest success in life and feel sure that we will not fail to see our wish ful- filled. Page iTeenly-five I

Alex hails from the city of Columbia. After spending several years at the Fighter ' s Hole, ' he entered college. During his time with us, he has made friends with every one on the campus. He is unusually good-natured and pleasant and it is almost impossible to be pessimistic around him. He has been a strong supporter of all the college activities and in athletics, he has been our foremost business manager. His efforts have been untiring and he has made a very efficient manager in both football and baseball. With his splendid business ability and pleasant disposition, we pre- dict for him a most brilliant and successful career. Welsey Barnett Carroll A.B., K A SPARTANBURG, S. C.

Welsey comes to us from the City of Success, and certainly has he attained it in no small de- gree. Both menially and physically he is equipped for the blind trails of an unknown fu- ture. His skill, sagacity and discretion shown in oratorical controversies, together with his speed, accuracy and endurance in bouts of the baslfeleers bears out this testimony without the pale of gain- saying. That your future be as successful as your past is the parting wish of your classmates of the present. Page iwenly-four

M. C. A. Cabinet, ' 18- ' 19; Treasurer W. P. S. Alumni Association; President Art Club, ' 17- ' 1S, ' IS- ' ig; President Trav- elers ' Club. Lo! Behold the genius of our class — Grand Pa. Although a student of the highest type in all branches, he has attained the greatest degree of perfection in Clink ' s ' Math and Peg ' s Elec- trical Engineering. The most pronounced ob- stacles in the way of his success have been stump speaking and the fairer sex. Notwithstanding the above obstacles he has participated in a num- ber of college activit es. His ability as an artist is demonstrated in Volumes XI and XII of The Bohemian. His efforts have been untiring and the success of this publication is in a great measure due to him and his unselfish interests. We have no doubt as to his future success. James Elijah Ellis, A.B., A.M. COLUMBIA, s. c. Nothing at last is sacred to a man except the in- tegrity of his own mind. President. Treasurer, Corresponding Sec- retary, Member Board of Trust, three years. Freshman Monthly Orator, Car- lisle Literary Society; Secretary, ' 16- ' 17, Member Cabinet. ' 18- ' 19, Y. M. C.

' 18- ' 19; Senior Speaker. A constant talker — yea, that be true, but unlike the talker of fable and story, he speaks a speech that doth contain thoughts of wondrous import and sayings of philosophical nature. Ellis has proved himself to be of sterling character, a true friend and comrade. He is very faithful to his church and especially to the Epworth League in which he is a leader. After a university course, he expects to enter the ministry. South Carolina Methodism will some day have occasion to know him as a bishop. Page Irveniy-
