JOHN REAGAN ABERNATHY Age, 16, Height, 5 ft. 911, ins., Weight, 134. 1916-'17 f8DJ 1917-'18 CQBJ 1918-'19 QIOCJ-Alexander Graham Literary Society. 1919-'20 f11BJ-Alexander Graham Literary Society. What foolery lurks latent in the breast of 'very sensible people. JOHN has sense, altho he hides it in two ways-first, by never saying any- thing unless he winds up with something foolish, second, by emitting his knowl- edge so slowly. In Geometry, it takes him about half an hour to say what he is thinking about, and we begin to think he is just killing time to keep from show- ing his ignorance. But when we hear what he was struggling to say, we are amazed, we wonder who told him. Since he can always unlock the intricate, he must have the master key. JAMES RAMSEY ALEXANDER Age, 175 Height, 5 ft. 'YW ins.g Weight, 135. 1916-'17 QSAJ 1917-'18 f9AJ 1918-'19 KIOCJ-Alexander Graham 'Literary Society, Delta Club. 1919-'20 QIIBJ-Alexander Graham Literary Society, Delta Club, Athletic Association, Football Squad. Only a boy, with h is wild, strange ways, With his idle hours, or his busy days, With his queer renzarlfs, and his odd replies- Sometimes foolish, and sometimes wise. It's a good thing his name is JIM instead of Vim, because he never seems to be in the slightest hurry, or even greatly moved over anything. He arrives at school at the eleventh hour, to avoid having the girls ask for charms. Bor- rowed charms? No, they are candy charms. But JIM has got some charac- teristics worth asking for. He doesn't jump at conclusions, which is reasoning ability. He has the capacity to work, to do things required of him, and not go to sleep on the job.
