He entered Clemson in ' 09. when quite a small lad; but, after remaining in college for one year, he decided that the Class of 13 did not suit him. so he stayed out of College a year, and joined the Class of ' 14. He was struck with a bright idea soon after entering college, and he has never fully recovered. We predict a glorious future for this youngster.

Jule enjoys life to the fullest extent; its happiest moments to him are spent either in sleep or with his pipe. Doc Jule is always happy, except when he is the goat of a joke; then look out, friend, you are rushing in where angels fear to tread. Jule is a true friend, a good athlete, and an orator that sways his audience. We predict for him a long life of success.
