Acrostic. There’s Rhea and McAulay, inseparable pair; Humphreys, the girl who is wont to declare E,very day that Colclough ne'er sits in a chair. Can you think Farmer, a tiller of soil, Loving a Johnson, who never will toil? A beautiful Wood, that is not very dark ; Sheldon, the girl whose life is a lark; Shall Westmoreland don the dress of the ark ? Oh I then there is Douglas o'er whom teachers rave ; polgers there 're two, so solemn and grave. Next there is Dorroh, so stately and tall, I really think by her side Kelley is small. N°w, don’t forget Harmon, beloved President ; Except not dear Beattie, our one resident. Then there is DuPree with expression so sweet; E,ver McCarley is talking of feet (musical ones) ; E,very day Thompson counts till we 're released ; Now comes McCutchen, last, but not least. There ’ve been classes and classes, yet I 'm sure 't is true. Were they all compared by me or by you, o utshone they'd all be by Nineteen Two. V. F. '02.

History of 1902 I 11E years revolve, the months fly on their course, and once again the historian sits down to her task of acquainting the “gentle reader” with the successes and failures, the peculiarities and eccentricities, of “naughty two’s,” who, if the fates and the instructors he not averse, will as graduates, soon make their bow to the world. Well, we must confidentially confess, were it not for long hours of poring over Trigonometry, Physics, and Astronomy, and for the ease with which we bear ourselves in society’s realm, we might in a moment of drowsiness, fancy ourselves once more passing the days of Freshmanhood. Our ambitions, our aspirations, are the highest, the best; our motto, “ Excelsior ! ” Even in our infancy (as college girls) we “ hitched our wagon to a star.” Many of us have been marching steadily onward for two long years, some of us even four. The yay has been long, the struggle hard, and we are justly proud of the many successes that have brightened our course. Our instructors will bear us witness that our attainments in the class- room have been of no mean order. In this connection, only one point can we mention, and that is the tine spirit with which the Senior Latin Class has cleared up and embedded in memory the facts contained in the outline of Latin Syntax. We’ve had our fun. We’ve broken most every law of the Decalogue; so we feel we can honestly take our dips with clear consciences and all the inward satisfaction of something attempted, nothing done. Not that there’s “ nothing doing,” but that the doctrine of least work has been universally adopted. The diversions of ’02 are numerous, refreshing, and invigorating. All possess a tendency for the trodden paths of transgression. Some delight in paying penalties by memorizing a portion of “Dictionary”; others have stained their record with an occasional “mark.” Limited numbers remain in their rooms on Monday afternoons, endeavoring to escape the ways of error. However, the memories of the many pleasant days spent in and around dear old Chicora will not soon he forgotten by those who compose this noble Class of Nineteen Hundred and Two. And now we shall soon hid farewell to the days spent amid the all- powerful hut quiet influence of the charm that pervades that little spot of earth called Chicora. May our own lives reflect the high principles which our associations here have instilled into our minds, and may the great, busy world have cause to congratulate itself that here we were prepared for life’s struggle. Tiie Historian. 24
