Music Club “The only way to have a friend is to be one.” The saying “still water runs deep,” is certainly applicable to Eloise. Eloise is very quiet, and as a rule has very little to say; but when she does say something it is worthwhile. Most people think she is very shy and reserved, and so she is when in a crowd; hut her intimate friends find that she has life and spirit. Although she declares that she is a man-hater she has her ideal, and none of her friends would be surprised to learn that some lucky man had caused her to change her opinion. Eloise is a good, conscientious student, always on time, with her lessons well prepared and always making the honor roll. She is also a good pianist.

Still she has won her way into our hearts until one is prone to think that she has been with us on our four years journey through school. She has sung her way through college and has incidentally touched many girls and won a place in their hearts. Mary is not only musical but she proves her ability in many other college activities. She has been a faithful member of Christian Endeavor Cab¬ inet. Mary also showed her spirit in backing the Senior team in time of need in their basketball career. Taking her all in all, she is a good combination of “Looks and Books,” that is, she has a counte¬ nance that possesses the qualities of beauty, intellect, and character. -C LJ Kathleen Ervin Brock, B.A. Delta Mu—Palladian Honea Path, S.

Wearer of the “C.” “She thinks without confusion clearly, loves her fellow-men sincerely, acts from honest motives purely. We fee! quite safe in saying that there isn’t any¬ body in School who does not like Brock! How could one help liking her? It would be impossible in this short space, to name all of her good quali¬ ties and characteristics, but we will sum it up by saying that she is an allround girl! We cannot remember ever seeing Brock without a smile and a word of friendliness for everbody. She meets one with that ‘‘glad-to-see-you look, anti she is always jolly; but not too jolly to be serious when the occasion demands. Kathleen has proved her capability along many lines, but her outstanding feature is her ability in athletics—here is where she shines! On the bas¬ ketball court. She is a wonder, she has made varsity for four years, and has served as Presi¬ dent of the Athletic Association ’26. We could not have done without her! V { CV .-- « i . n ■� TVA-d) C.-. Ora Ionene Brodie, B.A. Pi Alpha Lambda Sigma—Kratian Wagner, S. C. Athletic Association. Christian Endeavor “The mildest manners and the, gentlest heart. ' It took a long time for Ionene to decide to come to Chicora, but she came at last and everyone is glad that she did. She makes “pretty speeches” and it is not her fault that men look the second time when she passes. She came into the world attractive; and the best part of it is she has not discovered it yet. If we get “blue” or homesick we go to her for comfort; and if we are happy she makes us still happier by singing us a bright little song or telling a joke. Those who know her well have found a serious- ress behind that frolicsome nature of hers, conse¬ quently none are surprised when she talks of going to Boston or elsewhere to continue her studies. We predict for Ionene a glorious future in what¬ ever phase of life she selects, whether in teac hing, in politics, or in marriage. Margaret Estelle Brown, B.A. Zeta Phi Delta,—Kratian Chester, S. C. Athletic Association. Christian Endeavor. International Relations Club. President of International Relations Club “One thing is forever good; That one thing is success. ' Margaret has never been known to worry over anything since she joined the class in her Sopho¬ more year. She has a light heart, and a sunny smile. It has been said, “Where there’s smoke, there’s fire,” and it might be added, “Where there s Margaret, there’s fun.” Margaret devotes much of her time to her exten¬ sive correspo ndence. It is hard to understand why so many letters have to be written when a large number of them get no farther than Columbia! Margaret gave her friends a shock in her Senior year by acquiring a great taste for literature. It was thought that she was going to teach Political Science; but the novels at Bryan’s Book Store seem¬ ed to hold an especial attraction for her! How¬ ever, it may have been only a passing fancy,—one can never tell about Margaret. Emily Glover Caldwell, B.A. Zeta Phi Delta—Kratian McPhersonville, S. C. Athletic Association. Christian Endeavor.

Book Reviewer Chicora Magazine ’24-’25. “Better to be small and shine Than be great and cast a shadow.” Emily began her college course with the han¬ dicap of being from McPhersonville. However, she seems to have overcome it, and to have proved that a good student can come from nearly anywhere! Brilliant intellect, ready wit, pleasing personal¬ ity, and energy—that’s Emily. Although one hard¬ ly ever sees her studying, she seems to have suc¬ ceeded in fooling the faculty for she has held her place on the Honor Roll for four years. She be¬ lieves in the old saying, “When joy and duty clash, let duty go to smash.” She is always ready to enter into any fun, or even mischief that happens to be passing through school. While at Chicora she devel¬ oped a talent for writing which won for her the hon¬ or of being voted Chicora’s Most Literary Girl. One ca nnot understand why Emily writes so much love poetry, because she claims she is not in love. A Susie Caldwell, B.A. Kratian Chester, S. C. Athletic Association. Christian Endeavor Society.

President Freshman Class “She knows hooks as a sailor knows the seas. ’ When we entered school, there was onfe girl of ’26 to whom we looked for leadership during our Freshman year. Therefore we voted Susie President of our Class. She proved a most successful one and won her way into the hearts and minds of each of us. When it comes to French, Susie is hard to beat. Not only in French does Susie shine, but in all other classes as well. She has been one of the star pupiIs in school. We always look for Susie’s name to lead the honor roll. She is seldom seen when she is not in a good hu¬ mor and willing to help someone “get up a les¬ son, no matter what it may be. Susie is of a quiet nature; hut underneath this quietness there is sincerity, friendliness, and un¬ usual intelligence. And now that college days are over, we are sure that Susie has a successful career in store for her. Mary Welsh Carson, B.A. Sigma Alpha—Kratian Kershaw, S. C. Athletic Association.

' ” A small, but very pleasing addition to our class is Welsh. She came to us from Kershaw and is a good representative from that small city and too, such a good representative of her Alma Mater that several have followed in her town since. It is not always those who make the most fuss that do the most. So it is with Welsh, for she has two out¬ standing gifts in the artistic realm—that of writing poetry and of playing the violin. A poet or a vio¬ linist—which will it be? But, whichever it is, we are sure it will lead to the road of success for Welsh. Mary Frances Copeland, B.A. Alpha Zeta—Palladian Clinton, S. C. Athletic Association. Christian Endeavor. International Relations Club. Proctor-McClintock Hall. Vice-President Palladian Literary Society “What is life without the light of love?” Good intentions combined with hard, steady work can only result in success. This has been tested time after time, and history is destined to repeat itself again. On this page is seen the type of girl that everyone likes, courteous to all, unkind to none. The four years that she has been here have been years of hard work, and to Mary it is highly credi¬ table that now, after guiding herself along the path that every student desires to follow, she has truly ' earned the diploma she is to receive. Within Mary lies the power to make the hearts of many lads beat fast; and one, at least, is known who would corrobor ate the statement. Mary is sin¬ cere, conscientious, unselfish, jolly, dependable, and a good sport. Athletic Associatoin. Christian Endeavor. Class Basketball I earn 23. 24, 25, 26. Class Track ' 22-’23, ’23-’24.

Mattie L. is always smiling, and, what is more, she always has a cheerful greeting for every one. It is so seldom that one sees her in a dispondent mood. Although she has been at Chicora since her third year in High School she still gets homesick for Renno every now and then. It is thought that she has left her heart up there,—Mattie L. is so re¬ served on the subject! Mattie L. has proved herself a good sport on the athletic field. She can always be depended upon to be on the field from time practice begins in the fall until the last game has been played. She has been on her class basketball team ever since she first came to Chicora. The best that could be wished for Mattie L. is that she may play the game of Life as well as she has that of basketball.

Treasurer of Senior Class. Proctor-McClintock Hall ’24. International Relations Club “None knew her but to love her. none named her but to raise her.” Virginia came to Chicora just two years late! But in these last two years she has made us love her the whole four years’ worth. Our class does not see how it got along without her during its “Rat” and “Soph” years! She should have been elected I he biggest giggler as well as the most natural, for who has ever seen “Ginia” when she was not in a good humor—and giggling! She believes in the “never worry” theory, even when the letter from Florida fails to come on time; and it pays—at least, in her case. Virginia is certainly going out into the world to do big things—provided she is not hindered by a certain somebody who at times shows quite a bit of determination.

Although she is insignificant in size, she is far from insig¬ nificant in mental ability. For one thing, she is an especially good business woman. She acted as Treasurer of her class during its Sophmore and Junior years, and credit must he given her for raising the money for the Junior-Senior last year. After proving her business ability she was elected Business Manager of the Chicora Magazine. Edna’s laugh can always be recognized for it is jolly and good hearted. She is a person who does not push herself, who is frank, sincere and thought¬ ful. Her face is always smiling and shines almost as much as the diamond she wears for “Chap”. Leila Drake, B. Mus. Columbia, S. C. “Joy conies jrom work alone. Lelia has been with Chicora for six years, and things will not seem the same without her. For three years on the Glee Club she has done her share in advertising Chicora in the different Carolina cities and colleges. Lelia is most unselfish with her talents, graciously playing and singing for others and carrying happiness and cheer to many hearts. “In her hath Art completed Nature’s generous task. She has talents, however, other than musical. She makes an unusual record in graduating with five certificates. Her petiteness enhances her charm. With her bright brown eyes and her innocent smile she is often mistaken for a demure Freshman in¬ stead of one of our most worthy Seniors. Men seem unable to resist her, nor do they seem to desire to do so; they rather seem to be perfectly content to have her dainty feet trampling on their hearts.

She came to us from Winthrop college in our Sophmore year, and we believe the gods were kind to us in directing her choice. Attractive, unselfish Julia! What more is needed to endear her to her friends? Never has there been a happier person than “Farnum”—no matter how gray the skies or how heavy the storm Julia always has a smile and a song. The fact that she was voted the most beautiful senior is ample proof of her popularity. Indeed it is hard to por¬ tray Julia in words; she is just “Julia” to us,- and we love her.

President Palladian Literary Society (Last Semester ) “To be womanly is the greatest charm of woman.” “The embodiment of sweetness”, is a phrase which very ably describes this lovely little girl. She came to Chicora three years ago from another college; hut it has not taken that long to learn to love her. Indeed, she was made for love. Her sincere, unassuming nature is irresistible, and a glance at a list of her suitors is sufficient proof of her power over men. It has been said that the silent hear the great arch-angels sing. If this is true, one understands where Pearl receives the inspiration which gives her the power to captivate us with her singing. Her lovely soprano voice won for her an envied place in the Glee Club last year. One dares not predict her future, though we know that a girl of her abil¬ ity, beauty, and charm can but meet with success in anything she undertakes.

Sub-Marshal of Kratian Society “We can do more good by being good than in any other way.” There are not adjectives enough in the English language to describe Wilma! It just can ’t be done. She is a little bit of everything—friendly, sympa¬ thetic, unselfish. In fact, she is true blue! She is a past master at cheering up homesick Freshmen, and is always ready to do anything she can for anybody. And have you heard her sing! If you have not, you have missed a great deal in our opin¬ ion—for her voice is truly beautiful! To think of nights in the back parlor after prayers will always be to think of Wilma and the times she has sung for us. It is quite certain that Wilma has a career awaiting her, for she is planning to study in New York next winter, and then some day we’re to be proud to know her—but wherever each of us may go, there’s one member of Old ’26 that will never be forgotten, and that one is Wilma!

Her lovable, al¬ truistic nature has not changed, but to it has been added, through the softening power of experience, a subtle dignity and a more serious outlook on life. She is still seeing life through rose colored glasses, though her vision is now broader and more far- reaching. She lives not in the future as most girls are wont to do, but in the present. Eleanor is an unusual girl; she uses no cosmet¬ ics; she is a good athlete; she is majoring in math¬ ematics; she excels in scholarship. Her college rec¬ ord may seem to indicate that a brilliant scholastic career is before her, but her friends suspect that she has chosen the highest vocation offered to woman. farrryu+ t i ■ V • v I-- ' ' CWft m .

Proctor McClintock Hall 25. “A perfect woman nobly planned to warn, to comfort, and command. And yet a spirit still and bright, with something of angelic light.” A class just cannot get along without girls like Emmie. She is the kind of girl that is always ready to do anything she is called on to do. She is great at getting up C. E. socials and college parties of all kinds. Emmie isn’t the kind that believes in worrying over anything; but she always comes out in every¬ thing just as well as anybody else. She is happy all the time and a pal to everybody. Some day Emmie is going to make a good house¬ keeper! You should see her cook and do fancy work! She just “can’t be beat.” She says she is going to stay at home next year—we venture to wonder why! o a Elizabeth Aileen Hall, 5. Mils. Delta Sigma—Kratian York, S. C. Athletic Association.

She is famous for always being ready to help anybody from a homesick Freshman to a re¬ stricted Senior, and for making one believe that her trouble is worse than yours. Although she claimed to be a “wreck” over her recital, anyone who heard her will acclaim her “Queen of the Ivories.” And she is just as good in all other “lines” too, if one may judge from the number of letters she receives daily. Aileen says she intends to spend her future giv¬ ing some of her knowledge to school children, but she is much more apt to pay a “permanent visit to Florida. £7 A .Saw «0 - ; -A v. ’ • • ' . : v: v,.

International Relations Club ‘Even power itself hath not one-half the might of gentleness.” Mary’s appearance at Chicora did not create a sudden sensation that was apt to fade away as the newness wore off, but a lasting one that has fol¬ lowed her through her entire college career. Real¬ izing that “to have a friend is to be a friend” she has endeared herself to all who know her. Truly it can be said of her “to know her is to love her.” Charming personality, and striking appearance, calm reserve, tact, and intellectual ability. She attacks her tasks with a quiet attitude of assurance that crowns her efforts with success. Her scholas¬ tic record is one that any girl should be proud to attain. Mary, at various times in the past, has been deeply interested in certain representatives of va¬ rious professions: Doctors, lawyers, ministers, and even college professors have been on her list, but as matters now stand everyone believes that she is “about to take the bar.” : BSBBKQg Ella Adams Hill, B.A. Sigma Phi—Kratian Orangeburg, S.

She went out for basketball and made varsity her Fresh¬ man year. The next year she made it again, but was so unfortunate as to injure her knee, which pro¬ hibited her from playing anymore. However, this did not decrease her interest in this phase of ath¬ letics. So interested did she continue to be that she was elected varsity basketball manager. She is always willing to do her duty. When Mar¬ garet Love, our Junior Class President, had to leave school, on account of her health. Ella was elected President. She is full of life and pep. The student body recognized her loyalty to Chicora when they elected her the most college spirited. L e? 4 k h w rik ■ mn 5V! fV ' ■° L £j jChj - . - -4- J ■.

This was discovered the Freshman year, and difficulties and problems were immediately thrust upon her. Throughout the four years she has cheerfully shouldered all responsibilities given her. No wonder she is Edi¬ tor of “Nods and Becks”, President of Christian Endeavor, and President of Palladian Literary So¬ ciety. “Ban” is a splendid organizer, a conscien¬ tious worker, independent thinker, and loyal friend, ever ready to do more than her share. In fact, she is a rare individual. She was voted the most capable girl in the stu¬ dent body. The responsible positions she has held throughout her stay at Chicora have proved this beyond a doubt. mw ia XXJlA {-AnEp-rt. Gacc l . Elizabeth Matheson, B.A. Delta Sigmct—Kratian Union, S. C.

It is hard to de¬ scribe her, for she is a wee bit of girl, made up of a great many things—ability, sweetness, wit, and good humor among them, and many many more. By voting her the cleverest member of our class, we show what we think of her ever-ready wit. In Elizabeth we have one of the high lights in our class, one who has shone unceasingly for four years for good Old ’26. If you are ever homesick or blue, just go to “Lib”, and you will he laughing your tears away before you know it. For four years Annelle has graced our halls with her sweet face and gentle manner. From the very first she has been growing on us, and the more we know her the more we love her. During her sojourn here in the Chicora walls, Nell has proved to be not only a most desirable acquaintance, but an es¬ pecially good pianist. In spite of some timidity Nell’s class spirit made her go out for track in her Sophomore year. Since then she has shown that, as Miss Godbokl has said, “She was made for standing high jumps.” When her classmates hear Nell talk of teaching music, they smile, knowing that a “favorite hymn” is ever running through her mind and that a “Song of Love” is probably the one subject she will teach.

Be noble, and the nobleness that lies in other men sleeping , but never dead, will rise in majesty to meet thine own.” Ruth’s athletic record is an enviable one. On the basketball field she has done her share in holding up Chicora’s proud record for the past four years. She holds her own in track, too. She excels in broad jumping, though she has won first places in other events. Added to this Ruth is a good musician. She is an accomplished pianist and a favorite accom¬ panist. Her work in the class room has always been good. She has kept on the honor roll in spite of many outside interests. In assuming responsibility she has proved her¬ self dependable and capable. As business manager of “Nods and Becks” ’26, she has carried the finan¬ cial part of the work to a successful finish. She has filled the position of student body President even more perfectly. For the same reasons and many others that might be named Ruth was chosen the most popular girl in college. .Frances Kathleen Nickles, B.A. Beta Chi—Kratian Hodges, S. C. Athletic Association.

Wearer of the “C. ’ “So blue of eye, so fair of face, with hair all curled, each strand in place.” According to statistics “Nic” is the most up-to- date girl in college. The fact that she was voted the most attractive Senior, too, shows her popularity. “Nic” played on the varsity basketball team for two years, but she was unavoidably prevented from holding that place her Senior year. She was cap¬ tain of the class team her Junior year. “Nic” also took part in track, made varsity track two years and was class track manager her Sophomore year. Another thing about “Nic” is that she simply captivates the men. The other girls are wall flow¬ ers when she’s around. Perhaps her auburn hair accounts for this. “Nic” is talented along musical lines, the violin being her specialty. i — Ruth White Oates, B.A. Columbia, S. C. Town Club. Athletic Association.

International Relation: “Character is the diamond that scratches every other stone.” Ruth, one of the most energetic and gleeful Sen¬ iors, has missed much of the real college life which comes from student activities and from “Rules and Regulations”, because she is a day-student. She is constantly happy, and smiling, never moody, and always the same to her fellow-students. She is al¬ ways doing a kindness for someone, and never grows tired of explaining difficult Literature, Digest Top¬ ics, lending Philosophy notebooks, and donating Spanish Translations to some of her friends who are not as gifted as she is. With all her good traits it is certain she will have no difficulty in finding her place in the world; though it can never be larger than the place she holds in the hearts of her friends. “The most manifest sign of wisdom is continued cheerfulness.” r •v a Frances Elizabeth Peake, B.A. Delta Sigma—Kratian Union, S.

Altho’ she approves heartily of a trip to town six or seven times a week, she stays at the college long enough to make the honor roll. As for athletics, ‘Peachie” prefers other ways of taking her “daily dozen.” But when it comes to music she is right there, hav¬ ing sung in the glee c lub and having made the cho¬ rus in the minstrel.

She sings so beautifully that, if we were not on our guard, we would dwell on that particular subject to such an extent that our space would be filled before we had told other in¬ teresting things. We think “red” is her favorite col¬ or—well, yes, we are sure of it. Her interest changed from B.M.I. to Carolina her Senior year, not be¬ cause of fickleness, but merely because the “object” of interest had moved in that direction.

What a host of enviable traits is asso¬ ciated with that name! Her striking beauty makes her good to look upon, and her charming person¬ ality makes friends for her wherever she goes. Her ever-ready sympathy and cheerful disposition have endeared her to the hearts of all who know her. Myra has been a prominent figure in all college activities since coming to Chicora. She has never been known to shirk a duty. Now that May is approaching bringing with it the coveted diploma, and Myra’s departure it seems that her place can never be filled. But her presence will be felt even after she has gone and her noble record will be an inspiration to those who follow in her footsteps. Myra has proven that “ Great ex¬ cellencies lie concealed in the depth of character, like pearls at the bottom of the sea.” Carolina Shealy, B.A. Columbia, S. C. Town Club “The will to do and the soul to dare.” As a musical composition has through all its variations an ever-recurring theme; a poem, an un¬ derlying thought that gleams through words of fancy; so has Carolina’s ’neath the bay banter of youthful language and actions the characteristics of sincerity that shines as the beacon light of her nature. With her a friendship will he safe, lasting and true. In personal appearance daintily attractive,— belongs to the violet type of womanhood, modest, demure, true. Innately preferring the quieter walks of life, not necessarily the solitary ones, her swe et¬ ness and charm will ever be most apparent in her own home where those who know her best will love her most. Behold in Nan one of Chicora’s most talented y a year’s study she has be¬ come a concert organist, and her playing of the piano is such as can be done only by one gifted with musical talent. Nan has not allowed her edu¬ cation to be one-sided; for her name has bedecked the honor roll more than once. In fact she has be¬ come very ambitious since she entered Chicora. When she began her study here she was just a “spe¬ cial’’ in music, but since that time she has decided to do some real hard work and get a B.Mus. de¬ gree. The class of ’26 is glad that Nan changed her mind and cast her lot with them. If asked what she intends to do, she will proba¬ bly answer, “teach;” but there is One waiting for her to sign a contract that will thwart that plan. This is Louise, the Louise that every single girl loves. She is sweet, smart, capable, and extremely handsome. She decided that she would rather have an A.B., instead of a B. Mus. degree, but her school mates think she should have both degrees, because her musical ability is one of her outstanding char¬ acteristics. Louise is also quite an athlete, having played on class teams all four years, and having served on the athletic board three years. In her Junior year she was assistant varsity manager. Louise is very popular with the young men. She has not followed the modern trend of the young girl of today. She is an old-fashioned girl with none of the character¬ istics of the flapper. May her happiness reach “Fur” into the future, and include a “man.” Elizabeth Thomson, B.A. Kraiian Abbeville, S. C. Secretary Senior Class, Athletic Association. Christian Endeavor “A truer, nobler trustier heart, more loving, or more loyal, never beat within a human breast .’ “Where are you going, ‘Lib’?” “Oh, I’ve just got to practice!” “Lib’s” violin is her hobby; and although she is just beginning, we can already see that some day she’s going to be famous. “Lib” en¬ tered another college as a Freshman, but she soon realized her mistake and came to Chicora. In her we immediately recognized quite an addition to our class, and such she has proved herself to be. She is always a friend to everybody and although it is true that her hair is red (how we envy her!), she seems to be minus that characteristic that usually accompanies this particular shade of hair. French is another of “Lib’s” hobbies, and she says she’s going to teach it next year. But we aren’t at all sure what the outcome of this present plan mav be. Irvw Annalou is a girl of charming personality and striking appearance. She is well poised, and be¬ neath the calm reserve of her manner there is a disposition so sweet and unselfish, that it endears her to all whose privilege it is to know her. She has a refreshing smile and a lovely, well-modulated voice that are irresistible. Health, beauty and vitality are gifts of hers which she has not neglected, as do so many who are equally fortunate. She has been called the An¬ nette Kellerman of her class and it is not hard to understand why. She is a talented artist, and though one might predict for her a successful career in this line, it is known that she has higher interests elsewhere, and when her heart and art clash, it is very evident that art will have to leave the stage.

Christian Endeavor Society In friendship I was early taught to believe. Impish perversity, a bit of audacity, good looks and distinct personality, and, most of all, charm! Who could this be save Maude? One wonders how, with no more than five feet of height she dares such independence and calm indifference. In fact, she’s a rare combination; for she can be frivolous or se¬ rious at the right time; she is popular with both sexes, which is probably due to her good looks and charming personality. A truer friend could not be found in a day’s journey. Maude had the wanderlust before she came to us; but she finally found Chicora and chose this as her Alma Mater. The place which she has made in our hearts will always be hers. With so endeared herself to us that we almost begrudge the world the privilege of taking her from us. She is of the type that does not push herself on anyone. For that reason she has spent her four years among us rather silently, but nevertheless her sterling qualities, unselfishness, modesty, and sweetness, have been recognized. We have often heard that precious things come in small packages; and now that we have seen this young lady we are more ready to believe it than ever before. So as she stands on the verge of de¬ parture from our beloved Alma Mater, it is with reluctance that we bid her farewell, for truly, “Ambition rules the brain; but love the heart.” Miss Alice C.

What more fitting then, than that the Freshman, in this green time of life, should enter College! March winds and April showers were very necessary to the budding of the shoots of knowledge in the Freshman mind. And we, so green and sweet, in our dewy innocence, received at this time the first seeds of knowledge, and felt the first pull of the plow and cultivator in the spri ng of our career. Athletics was our shining light for it was there we won the Senior Freshman game. Susie Caldwell, our President, directed us to the next season. Truly in our delightful verdancy, might we then sing with the poet: “Today the Spring is in the air, and in the blood; Sweet sun gleams come and go Upon the hills, in lanes the wild flowers blow. And tender leaves are bursting everywhere.” For we felt the stir of new life in our blood, and we did not realize any more than the Freshmen of today how green we were. We might sum it all up by saying of ourselves at that time: “Once came eighty and six babies Through our magic gates to pass. Scattering ‘if you please ’ and maybe. Were they not as green as grass?” SUMMER (Sophomore) But the March winds and April showers brought forth an abundance of May flowers, and the Summer-time came upon us almost before we knew; so delightfully did the one season blend into the other. We found the skies so much bluer and sweeter, and the sun shone more warmly upon us. We had stuck our heads high enough to see nearly as much of the sky as we imagined we could. We had our heads very high and we kept the stalks that sup¬ ported them very straight. They were not yet very heavy with their accumulation of wisdom and so did not droop with weight. But our (lowers were unfolding little. We were slowly, but surely coming out into the light. Our sister class was about to leave us. To cheer them along life’s way we gave them the Sophomore-Senior party, which proved a success in every way. Margaret Love led us through this heat of summer. It was with us even as Longfellow writes: “O, Summer day beside the joyous seas! 0, Summer day so wonderful and white. So full of gladness and so full of pain! Forever and forever shalt thou be To some the gravestone of a dead delight. To some the landmark of a new domain .’ □ 8 8 B fi i? i k w s I □ C § 0 Qsos Some of us were regretting the ‘‘dead delight” of our verdant days, while oth¬ ers looked ahead longingly for the “new domain” where the Juniors rule so royally. But the buds had become blossoms, and the color of our dominant characteristics had changed with the unfolding of the larger bloom. Red is the color of summer warmth and glow and sunshine, and even on the cheek it speaks of hope. AUTUMN (Junior) But verily in college life as in nature “leaves have their times to fall and flow¬ ers to wither,” and the autumn of our days came as soon as we were ready. Very brilliant was our foliage that year, very rich our fruitage—it was indeed the harvest of our early planting—the reaping of the results of our dreams and hopes and ef¬ forts. The glow of our radiant knowledge flushed the whole year with the mellowness of sunset splendor. It brought with it the glad Thanksgiving of November. We were thankful that we knew so much, thankful that we were no longer Freshmen or Soph¬ omores—thankful that we would soon be Seniors. As lights do glimmer, so did Margaret’s health. Ella Hill took the lead of “Old ’26” the remainder of our college life. Our highest aim was “Junior-Senior”, and in our banquet at the Jefferson was our aim truly reached. Nickles, Brock, and McQuiston represented us on varsity basketball. McQuiston, Nickles, Harvin, and McLendon won us points on track. We no longer blushed red at some unexpected question. We had passed through the stages both of verdancy and crimson confession, and a new color spoke the tale of our advancement, for we were blue as indigo. WINTER (Senior) But even this stage passed on. The fruit was all gathered and stored away within our memories. The flowers had long since decayed, and the seeds of knowledge stored away beneath the soil of our understanding; ready at the call of coming Spring, to put forth new shoots and push forth into the new world. It seems a sadder time than we expected. The world outside is cold. We know not what to expect from its bleak, bare atmosphere. But we must not forget that to¬ morrow we will all enter into a renewal of life in a bright, glad new Springtime— Freshman in life’s school. Spring-time beckons us away. We go forth robed in the snowy emblem of our purification, no longer green, nor red, nor even blue! “For the last year satisfying must all shadows safely bloxv, Senior life is purifying and we pass as white as snow.” Frances Holleman, Historian. A lul Sixty-Five o 3 $ r- . ■G Class Prophecy Having been selected mates, I spent many sleepless the interpreter of the lives and full nights and f my esteemed class- days of anxiety. Often I tried to get in touch with the world of spirits and fairies, but never could 1 get my mind to leave the material things. It was always the same old cry, “Come Back to Earth”! At night my hopes were always renewed, perhaps there would be some help in the realm of slumberland; hut every morning 1 always awakened with the realization that some other plan must be sought. Why could I not use my own vivid imagination? This again seemed in vain. Although I seemed doomed to be a failure, always I had a hope that someday somebody would come to my aid. It all happened one day at the State Fair. Four of us had been enjoying the sights on the mid-way when we were attracted by a sign, “Have Your Fortune Told”. One by one we entered the little hut and at last my turn came. After asking several ques¬ tions, the fortune-teller told me there was one question which had been bothering me very much and she could give me some advice as to the outcome. She left the hut returning a few moments later with a scrap of paper upon which I read these words, “The Expected Will Happen Tonight, Cease Worrying”. What was going to become of me? I was almost afraid to walk, talk or even think. Above all I was afraid to say anything to any of my companions for fear they would leave me. It was time for us to return to school now 7 and just as we stepped inside of the college gate, a figure of an old woman approached us. My companions deserted me, and oh! how 7 I wish I could have followed them. have come only “Listen closel to help you.” osely,” she said, “I ox is something of interest for “Don’t be afraid of me”, cried the old woman. “1 “Who are you and what do you want?” I exclaimed am the spirit of the Class of ’26 and within this little you”. “Take it and tell no one.” With these words she disappeared.

To the Junior Class, we do leave our many Senior privileges, hoping that they will enjoy them in the future, as we have done in the past. I, Ella Hill, do hereby will and bequeath To my dear room-mate, Ellee Towsend, my taciturnity, hoping that it will add to her ability in interesting her new room-mate in the most unheard of hours. To Dorothy, my sister, I will my superfluous flesh gained at Chicora, hoping that she will diet herself in the future as I have in the past. To Mary Ellison Brantley, I will my “Senior Dignity” hoping that she will not have as much of a nervous strain maintaining it as I did. I, Frances Holleman, still being conscious after four years of college life at Chicora, do hereby will To the Editor-in-Chief of “Nods and Becks” 1927 my sleepless nights hoping that she will be allowed to keep her light on instead of having to gaze in the dark. To Caroline Douglas, my room-mate, all the cooking utensils, such as stove, can openers, knives, etc., that she may chance to find that have been borrowed from us but not returned; also my love for P. C., trusting that her love for that Institution will not waver again as it did when Chicora played their P. C.-Carolina game. To that one who will fill the vacancy left in No. 27 Preston—which place I have filled for the past four years—I will my drawer in the washstand and dresser also the secrets that the walls of this dear old room will unfold. I, Mary Copeland, do hereby will and bequeath To Lois Workman my ability to talk and to rare on certain subjects. To Ida Mae Hunter, I will my desire to flirt with the Carolina boys, trusting she will enjoy this as much as I did. To Ruth Workman, I reluctantly will all my senior privileges, hoping they won’t in¬ terfere with her education as they have with mine. To Ethel, Ellen, and Marion Copeland, I will my stove and pot, hoping they will re¬ ceive as much pleasure as I have in using them, and that they will have as much success as I have had in lending them. I, Julia Farnum, do hereby will and bequeath To my dear room-mates, Vivian and Elizabeth Harris my part in their little home witli the wish that the third room-mate in the future may be of more service to them than I have been. To Genia Anderson, I leave my senior privileges, hoping she will never let her studies interfere with her pleasures. To Vivian Harris, I will my athletic ability, hoping she will find it as beneficial as I have done. I, Annelle McLendon being in a generous frame of mind , will and bequeath To “Winks” Bailey, my love for foot-ball games, hoping that she will enjoy as’ many during her stay at Chicora as I have. To Rosa Currie, I will my very important place on the track team, realizing that she will fill the place much better than I have. Sixty-Nine To Anna McLendon, I will my senior privilege of having dates during the week, pro¬ vided she uses them to as good advantage as i have, trusting this will serve as an in¬ spiration for her to keep up the good work until her senior year. I, Dana Bvrd, before I “pass out, desire to will and bequeath To Eleanor Keels, my dignity as senior chaperon to church and ability to exert strict discipline, said dignity and ability being as good as new. To Louise Ulmer, I will my loyalty to Carolina, on the condition that she will prove her devotion by using her lungs as firmly and unhesitatingly as I have mine. To Mildred Bowen, I will my love for A Jazz Orchestra, with the request that she will always sit and listen attentively and not take part in any rhythmic movements. I, Mary Wylie, do hereby will my privilege To “linger awhile” in Wingfields to Ida Mae Hunter, on condition she uses it moderately. To Esther McCaskill, I leave my daily package of lunch, hoping it will not add to her weight as it lias to mine.

Historian Sophomore Class History September 16, 1924.—Diary, the long looked for day has come and with it has come to Chicora a hand of verdant Freshmen. Everything seems so strange and new to us, and we are frightened almost to death. All the girls are very friendly to us; but there are some who seem to take more notice of us than we consider necessary. We will tell you more about our new home later. September IS, 1924.—Yes, Diary, our forebodings have been thoroughly real¬ ized. The girls who bore the haughty glances have really done their work. Initiation!! The very thought of it makes us tremble. We have succeeded in surviving its terrible force, but feel as if we have lost our last friend. But you, Diary, are the one friend who remains true to us yet, and that is why we tell you all our troubles. May 28, 1925.—Diary, do you think that we have entirely forgotten you? So many things have happened since we talked with you last; hut we will try to tell you about them. We finally got over our terrible fright, now it seems like an unpleasant dream. We organized ourselves into a class, and it was not called a “rat” class either, because the “Wise Sophs’ had at last made us their true, though ignorant friends, and had changed our name to that of Freshman. We have tried to prove ourselves worthy of this name too. But I have forgotten to tell you the best thing of all! Exam¬ inations have come and gone and tomorrow we are going out to experience that great adventure, “Vacation.” Good-bye Diary. September 16, 1925.—Our good-bye was not for long, because our vacation has proven too short and we have entered Chicora again. Not as Freshmen, but as “Wise Sophomores.” We no longer tremble at the thought of initiation, but we are the ones who have the privilege of using this means to welcome the Class of ’29 to its new home. We have really had our fun too, and feel that we have been amply compen¬ sated for the unhappiness we experienced at this time last year. November 14, 1925.—Diary, since we talked to you last, the Class of ’28 has proven that it has retained its former spirit by taking part in all college activities, especially in that phase which tends to be only a bore in our college life, Recitations! But we realize that they are hut stepping stones, over which we must pass in order, eventually to reach again the wonderful adventure, Vacation!

One Hundred Seven The Social Conscience m Mod ern Poetry Prize Essay by Carrie Yarbrough, ’25 In a recent issue of The English Jour¬ nal there is an article by A. H. R. Fair- child on “Drifts in the Current of Poetry and Criticism,” in which the writer says that the tendency in modern poetry is to revolt against a “tender-minded” view of the world. There has been a gradual de¬ velopment towards this revolt since the time of Wordsworth, who stressed in his poetry the humanitarian and democratic elements, and insisted upon the use of the language of the common man. Modern poetry does not attempt to conceal any evil behind the veil of goodness. It at¬ tempts to show up existing evils for ths purpose of causing good to take their place. The consequences of this revolt against forms and conventions are efforts to make a new pattern to fit our changed conditions. There has ever been in all ages of poetry a universal longing for a perfect world. So it is in the modern age of poetry. This new order includes, be¬ sides religion, morals, and beauty, the day’s work; and it takes in the whole man and man of every class. Yet “the aim of the modern poet is still the ancient quest for beauty, order, harmony in life”. There is a very wide range of subjects in the new poetry, which may be said to be the poetry of daily life “in a sense undreamt of by Wordsworth”. Modern poets have insisted that rural society be considered in the making of a new pattern for life. And all of them try “to redeem the ugli¬ ness of the city by some form of compen¬ sating beauty and to lend to the life amid smoke and steel a satisfying pattern”. They have faith to believe that “no ugli¬ ness is invincible”. There is one element in the writings of the modern poets that we would consider especially,—that element which distin¬ guishes between the right and wrong, the good and the bad, in society. Many of the poets have a method of contrasting the ease and the luxury of the rich with the poverty and suffering of the poor, show¬ ing by means of this contrast the injusti¬ ces which society permits. But there are many others who use the strictly direct method of denouncing the injustices in the strongest way and appealing directly to the ones who should bear the responsi¬ bilities of these injustices for an allevia¬ tion of the injuries. One expression of the social conscience is the protest against industrial exploita¬ tion. As we well know, and as the poets would have us know better, there are those in society who joy in oppressing and subduing less fortunate ones in their ser¬ vice, in order that they themselves may be benefited by the profits. Mrs. Brown¬ ing, who was one of the first to deal with this problem of poetry, shows just this point in “The Cry of the Children”, which gives the very pathetic picture of young children confined within the walls of the factory, with the din of the machinery forever in their ears, while they do work too heavy and difficult for their delicate natures. They, so young and tender, long for death as a relief! The whir of the wheels has become so monotonous that the children cry out for them to be silent, if only for a day. Yet the movement of the wheels continues, seeming to grind even the little bodies away. Suffering has caused the children to doubt God, whom they call “Our Father”; for, say the children, He cannot have heard, else He would have said, “Come and rest with me, my child.” The harsh master who bids them toil on, has inspired in them distrust of God, whose image he is, and they say: “Grief has made us unbelieving; We look up for God but fears have made us blind.” To society that is responsible for the experience of sorrow with no reassuring calm and joy which has come to these children, Mrs. Browning makes this ap¬ peal: “Do you hear the children weeping and disproving O my brothers, what ye preach? For God’s possible is taught by His world’s loving — And the children doubt of each,” We would follow up this factory poem with another by Margaret Widdemer. “The Factories” most splendidly depict the three stages of a woman’s life—child- One Hundred Eight Q 3 Sf p p Q $ □ £} ft g ft I ft g ft % hood, maidenhood, motherhood,—being- robbed of the most characteristic joys as she labors in the factory to insure more luxurious bounty for other children, maid¬ ens, and mothers. Why should the evil intent of the world be directed against the factory? That is the question implied in Vache ' l Lindsay’s poem “ Factory Windows Are Always Broken . Is the factory more deserving of these attacks than other places? Or does it do less for the world? The same writer in The Leaden-Eyed brings to view a crime for which the world must answer, which, even if there were no other, would certainly appall any people—that is the crime of neglect of children and oppression of the poor, who eke out a mere animal existence,—“limp and leaden-eyed”. They starve so dreani- lessly, reap so seldom what they sow, serve no gods, and die so uncomplainingly. Edwin Markham “challenged the inter¬ est and sympathy of a world that had be¬ gun to realize that there was much wrong- in modern industrialism”, when he wrote “The Man With the Hoe”, in which he uses the man as a symbol of oppressed humanity, who cries out in dumb terror “a protest that is also a prophecy”. God, the Righteous Judge, will make the op¬ pressors account for the wrongs done the oppressed, even though these wrongs may have gone unannounced and unheeded throughout the long reac-h of the centur¬ ies. The title of the next poem, “God and the Strong Ones”, by Margaret Widdemer, makes us stop to think. To the boast of the strong ones that they have made the weak weaker, have gloried in their power to tread them down again should they rally, have cursed them for their ungrate¬ fulness, comes the answer of God, “I shall raise the weak . “ ‘They are stirring in the dark!’ said the Strong Ones, ‘They are struggling, who were move¬ less like the dead, We can hear them cry and strain, hand and foot against the chain, We can hear their heavy upward tread. What if they are restless?’ said the Strong Ones, ‘What if they have stirred beneath the rod? Fools and weak and blinded men, we can tread them doivn again ’— ‘Shall ye conquer me?’ saith God. “ ‘Ye have made them in their strength, who were Strong Ones, Ye have only taught the blackness ye have known; These are evil men and blind?—Ay but moulded to your mind How shall ye cry out against your own? Ye have held the light and beauty I have given Far above the muddied ways where they must plod, Ye have builded this your lord with the lash and ivith the sword — ' Reap what ye have sown!’ saith God.” Closely associated with this is Rudyard Kipling’s “The Sons of Martha”, an iron¬ ical account of those who serve the sons of Mary, the Masters, and who are sub- - jected to the suffering while the sons of Mary sit complacently by: “. it is their care to embark and entrain, Tally transport and deliver duly the sons of Mary by land and main.” “Wary and watchful all their days that their brethren’s days may be long in the land.” John G. Neihardt makes “one more pro¬ test against industrial wrong, one more paean of democracy” in “The Cry of the People . The people cry out not for alms and pity but for justice. They, the work¬ ers and makers, come to make the shirk¬ ers and takers tremble, for, “The night is gone and the sword is drawn And the scabbard is thrown away. Until the workers, the oppressed por¬ tions of humanity, begin to doubt and hate God because some of His higher creatures have been more successful than others and have taken undue advantage of this success by making conditions just as terrible as possible for the workers—until then the crime seems not too great; but when God, the Just, is hated because of the deeds of man, the unjust,—then we wonder! Louis Untemeyer gives an at¬ titude in “Caliban in the Coal Mines of the miners, who labor in the dark, cold, damp mines, growing more weary and hard with each stroke that they make: “God, if you wish for our love, Fling us a handful of stars! One Hundred Nine Richard Burton’s “ Black Sheep ” is a picture of those who are led away by en¬ ticing words and vain hopes of great achievements only to be stunned by bare realities. Practically the same idea is borne out in Florence Wilkinson’s “ The Fugitives” , which is a glimpse of people who have been always fleeing from op¬ pressors, looking and going they know not where, doing they know not what! The workers next claim our attention in our view of modern poetry. An under¬ standing of the working class is neces¬ sary before the needed industrial reform can take place. Some of the poetry is written from the standpoint of the work¬ er, but much of it from that of those who understand and sympathize with the workers. The poems which we have al¬ ready dealt with, especially those of the factory, would illustrate this element, but the modern poets are so awake to the needs of the times that we are not limited in our choice, because the poems seem to roll from their pens with the speed equal to that of the swiftest river! Illustrating the point of view of the worker, Richard Burton in “The Song of the Unsuccessful” tells of those who have labored zealously and soundly for their cause, yet they have striven vainly for the desirable results. They cry out “We meant full vjell and we tried full hard, And our failures were manifold.” “What ivas there wrong with us, O Lord, That our lives were dark and dumb? Arousing from the despair caused by failure they say: God, give us another chance!” Perhaps they have been somewhat in fault since their work has proved ineffi¬ cient, but they should be comforted to to know that their work has helped to at¬ tain success for others. Thomas Hood’s “The Song of the Shirt” might have been used to illustrate the tendency against industrial exploitation but was reserved as more fitting in this connection. It is the story of a miserable woman, in poverty, hunger and dirt, toil¬ ing from dawn to dusk in every season, sewing, as it seemed, her very life into the seam she sewed. She has become so crazed by the monotony of the work that she says: “It’s oh! to be a slave Along with the barbarous Turk, Where woman has never a soul to save If this is Christian work! She longs for the natural life she used to live instead of the machine life exist¬ ence “Without a brain to ponder and craze, Or a heart to feel—and break!” To the employers come the words of accusation which should be to them a realization of their wrong: “It is not linen you are wearing out, But human creatures’ lives! In Anna Hempstead Branch’s “To a New York Shop-Girl Dressed for Sunday” there is a splendid appreciation of the at¬ titude of the young girl who lives her own life, working hard and trying to save for those things that will be luxuries to her. Conspicious, splendid, conscious, sweet, innocent, vulgar are the words used to characterize this gaudily dressed girl who has sacrificed much time and money for this hour when “Perhaps the men will find me fair.” “She flows before the reproachful sage And begs her woman’s heritage. We, who know better, cannot condemn her, who seeks the best she knows, “So let us love and understand. All of these poems have given the hu¬ manitarian sympathy, showing how work¬ ers strive against difficulties and how they suffer; but here is one by John Mase¬ field called “A Consecration , in which he tells how others may address their song to the wealthy and joyous in the land, but he pays tribute to “the dirt and the dross, the dust and scum of the earth!” “Theirs be the music, the colour, the glory, the gold; Mine be a handful of ashes, a mouthful of mold. Of the maimed, of the halt and the blind and the cold — Of these shall my songs be fashioned, my tales be told.” One Hundred Ten The foreign element of a population always presents a great problem in any nation, because it is hard for people to cast aside racial feelings and receive the foreigner unto themselves. Nevertheless there will always be this element to deal with and it is the responsibility of society to see that the difficulty be met in the best way. Robert Haven Schauffler in his poem “Scum of the Earth gives the past, present and the hoped for future of this problem. “At the gate of the west” im¬ migrants from many lands are rejected and scorned; yet they are of the races which have produced great men—philos¬ ophers, poets, musicians, painters. “And you, are you of a different birth? You’re only a ‘dago’,—and ‘scum o’ the earth’!” There is a man with his head bowed with sorrow, amid the throng, and he is called with the rest, scum o’ the earth: “Man,—lift that sorrow-bowed head. Lo! ’tis the face of the Christ!” How can we know when we are labeling potentially great men with lowly names? Is it not better to be brotherly towards them all? “Forget, and forgive, that we did you wrong, Help us to father a nation strong In the comradeship of an equal birth, In the wealth of the richest bloods of earth.” In Thomas Augustine Daly’s “Da Boy From Rome”, we have the very pathetic picture of a young boy just come from his fatherland and finding the people cold and indifferent, the noise terrifying, and the cold almost unendurable. He meets with one who has already encountered the dif¬ ficulties in the new land and who under¬ stands, as no one else can, the look in his eye, which means a longing for “Eetaly”, the native land. Cheer and comfort should replace the loneliness and despair which stretch forth their hands to these souls so far from what they hold dear, as they reach the land where “Dere ees so many theeng he meet Dat is so strange, so new.” There is yet one phase of the social con¬ science, which throws its shadows in mod¬ ern poetry; and that is the life of the va¬ ried thousands who live in the city. The poets attempt to contrast the suffering poor with the well-situated rich people and to suggest to society a remedy for this inequality. Existing conditions of civilization are what that civilization demands. This thought and the burden resting upon so¬ ciety are suggested in Dana Burnet’s “Roses in the Subway”. If roses carried by a wan-cheeked girl with faded eyes, as she stumbles down the crowded car, can have a transforming influence in that car, causing the noise of the train to seem hushed, and the air to be purified—what transformation might be wrought in so¬ ciety ! It would be fitting at the conclusion of this discussion of city life, to quote two companion poems by Fedegond Shove. WHAT I SAW IN A SLUM “Charity at her spinning wheel That wove a dress for Faith, And Mercy with his bleeding feet, And Love a starving wraith, And Pity still a little boy With Sorrow for his only toy.” WHAT I SAW IN A RICH STREET OF THE CITY “Cruelty in an iron car With Beauty for his bride, The Seven Lusts that carried them Over the mountain side; The coach wherein the drove was Hate, The coachman’s name was Pride.” Thus we have seen in the various phas¬ es of the social conscience manifested in modern poetry accounts of the tremen¬ dous need for alleviation of suffering in the world, for right judgment of wrong¬ doers, for proclamations of justice, and for an appi ' oaeh towards the equalization of the races and classes of humanity. One Hundred Elevevn Things Aren t Always What They Seem To Be Prize Story by Gladys Doughty, ’27 Richard Stanhope, on his way to the sta¬ tion, laughed as he remembered his moth¬ er’s parting injunctions: “Dick, do be careful of pick-pockets,” she had said, “they are getting away with so many things now-a-days.” “Oh, don’t worry, mother, I’ll be very careful,” he had reassured her; but now —“Huh’, he muttered, “I’d like to see the bird who could take my watch or money. Anybody who falls for that stuff must be asleep at the switch.” While waiting in the station for his train, he studied the faces of the passers- by with a great deal of interest. Suddenly the train announcer called out his train for Langston; and, as he was waiting at the gate for the crowd to pass the train shed, a porter set down some bags close to his. He looked around and found him¬ self gazing into the frightened-looking pair of brown eyes of a girl. She was a tiny thing dressed in a neat traveling suit of grey— “Pardon me,” she was saying, “but are you going to Langston?” “Yes”, he finally managed to say, “that’s where I am bound for.” She smiled gratefully. “I wonder if I may see your ticket, I want to com¬ pare it with mine.” After a few moments of searching he produced the little pasteboard. She took it and looked at it intently. “All right, Miss,” said the porter. “You had better hurry if you want to get a seat.” “Thank you,” she said, handing back the ticket. “Dad told me to keep a look¬ out for counterfeit stuff. It has just been discovered that some one has issued a se¬ ries very like the original and I wondered if I had one.” “Gee, she’s a wonder,” Dick muttered to himself, gazing after her retreating figure. “I’ve a mind to take a seat some¬ where in her immediate vicinity.” But luck was not with him. There were no vacant seats in the coach in which she sat. So he had to fake a seat in the next coach. Some time later the conductor en¬ tered the coach, with the customary “Tickets, please.” Then Dick sat up with a start; she had entered just ahead of the conductor, and had taken a seat opposite him. Dick gave his ticket to the conductor and he passed on. “Your ticket, please,” the conductor asked the girl opposite. “But I gave you my ticket in the coach ahead,” she pro¬ tested, “and if you didn’t give me a hat check it’s your fault, not mine.” “If I have your ticket you must have a check. You must either produce the check or pay your fare.’ “I’ll do nothing of the sort,” she re¬ plied, a little frightened. “I know my rights and I’ll not be imposed upon by you.” Dick was greatly amused at her tongue- lashing of the conductor. He knew that the conductor must be right and that he was only doing his duty and yet his sym¬ pathies were for the girl. “If that con¬ ductor gets too smart, I’ll help her out. She’s nothing but a child any how,” thought Dick. “All right,” said the conductor, as he heard her give him a number; “Ill check over my tickets and try to verify what you have told me. Of course, if I find the ticket it will be one on me; but I still can’t understand how it happened.” The girl smiled and all trace of her fear and anger vanished. “I think,” she replied, “that you will find that I am correct. I always take pre¬ caution; it has saved other people a lot of trouble.” After what seemed like a very long time to Dick, the conductor re¬ turned. “Well, Miss,” he said, “I found the tick¬ et just as you had stated. I am sorry and I apologize.” “That is all right,” returned the girl, we all make mistakes. Don’t say any more about it.” Dick could never understand how they reached Langston so quickly. When they got into the station Dick followed the girl down the steps and came up to her. “You’ll pardon my remarks, but it amused me the way you got it on the con¬ ductor,” he said to her. The girl laughed. “You don’t know the half of it though. I didn’t get any¬ thing on him—I never gave him any ticket at all”. “Never gave him any ticket at all”, echoed the amazed Dick. But how did he check up on his tickets and find that you were right?” One Hundred Twelve 0 i b i a ft ft ft ft “Well, you see,” she explained; “I lost all of my money last night and I just had to get to Langston—and it’s such a long walk. Then I got a bright idea. When I got on the train I sat in the rear of the front coac h, but as the conductor came back I got up and came into your coach. You recall what happened after that and after all the argument and he was demanding that I pay my fare, I explained that I even remembered the number and series of my ticket.” “But tell me one thing; how could you tell him the number of your ticket when you didn’t have a ticket?” Dick asked. “Oh, I gave him the number of your ticket. You remember I asked you to let me see your ticket when we were in the other station.” “That certainly was clever of you, er— may I take you home?” “Thanks awfully,” she replied; “but I can’t as I am due down town right now. And thanks for the good time,” she called back as she got into a taxicab. “She’s a clever one,” thought Dick, as he walked down the street to his desti¬ nation. “Who would have thought of such a stunt?” He reached for his watch to see if he would be on time—it was gone! “Pickpockets,” he exclaimed, and then with a start he remembered her parting words, “and thanks for the good time.” “And to think,” he snorted, “that I imagined she might need my help.” GLADYS DOUGHTRY, ’27.

Rosa Currie, Jumping Center This is Rosa’s second year on the Varsity s a regular and she plays her part well. Myra Powell, Jumping Center Myra’s experience on class teams has help¬ ed her in her Varsity work, as she is accus¬ tomed to playing with McQuiston as side center. Jessie Malpass, Side Center Jessie is a fighter we love to see in action. She keeps at it all the time. Howt passing is not all it should he. her One Hundred Fifty-Four Mary Ellison Brantley. Forward Brantley is a good shot and uses her body to advantage. She is a little slow, but is one of our main-stays. Kathleen Brock, Captain — Forward This is Kathleen’s fourth year on Varsity and great things are expected of her. She is the best foul shotter on the squad. Alyne Johnson, Forward Johnson has a very quick dribble followed by a good chest shot, but does not pass accu¬ rately. Marguerite Clyburn, Forward Is very quick and works hard, but is not as accurate in her passing as she will be in another year. One Hundred Fifty-Five Nell Hunter. Guard Nell’s first year on the squad shows her to be dependable and steady. However, she needs more of the fighting spirit. Annie Lee Dantzler, Guard Annie Lee is one of the two regulars left from last year ' s “Wonder Team”, and she is just hard to heat. She has contributed a great deal to Chicora ' s success. Alberta Pegram, Guard Alberta will scrap to her last breath. She is the type of guard that spectators like to watch in action, hut she doesn ' t always use her head as she should. Maggie Williams, Assistant Manager Maggie is ready to help out the Varsity manager and can coach at all times. She takes a keen interest in each member of the Varsity, and strives to keep the “second team” doing their best to give Varsity the best prac¬ tices. Ella Hill, Manager A thorough knowledge of the game; to ref¬ eree or coach when needed; to enjoy the re¬ spect and confidence of the team; to keep them at a high pitch of loyalty and enthusi¬ asm; and a good clear business head; to at¬ tend to the multiple duties of varsity—are the qualities needed in a varsity manager.

It was not the kicking over of a lamp that started a little store, but it was the little store itself that started a business growing into one of National importance. The first J. C. Penny Co. Store—then known as the Golden Rule Store — transacted less than a $29,000 busines the first year. Less than a quar¬ ter of a century later, we find it with 676 Stores, doing a business of approximately $90,000,000. That’s a reward of service! J. C.
