ExuM Duval Banks — (Eu.) Raleigh, X. C. Motto: Every mnn the architect of his own forliine. The star of the unconquered will, He rises in my breast; Serene, and resolved, and still, And calm and self-possessed. Winner of Improvement Medal, ' 12; Winner of Best Debater ' s Medal, ' 13; President of his Society, Sjiring Term; Commencement Representative. This handsome lad comes from the city, but he is not made of the same stuff that characterizes so many city boys. When you have a hard ta.sk to perform or a problem to solve that requires downright thinking, call on Banks. His unparalleled success in his high school course is due to his untiring labor, connected with his remarkable ability to see things. Many times his mid- night oil has been burning while others were dreaming of Mama. He joined the Eutrophian Society immedi- ately upon his arrival, and from the first, became one of its leaders. His mind is bent towards the legal profes- sion; he is an astute observer of trifles as well as things of importance, and with his energy and interest in reali- ties multiplied by his college covu ' se there will be a new star in the galaxy of Southern statesmen before another quarter of a century reveals its mysteries.
