JOSEPH HENDERSON CALDWELL, WlNNSBOROj S. C. 1 cannot diagnose me if 1 try. A. B. Eu. K.2. Gryphon. Age, 20 years. Height, 5 ft. io in. Weight, 150 lbs. Class Football two years ; Honor Roll two years; Has Been ' Club. Joe says he intends to spend his life giving Mrs. Pinkham ' s Pink Pills for Pale People, but to hear him, in his must characteristic moods, you would not need to stretch your imaginative tracts to see him as the big dog with the little bark in Caldwell Bros. ' circus. MAXEY HALL CARR, McHENRY, Miss. He hath a hankering for sesquipedalian words in writing and speaking. B. S. Eu. Age. 22 vears. Height, 6 ft. 1 in. Weight. 165 lbs. Vice-Pres. Society; Intersociety Debater; Asst. Mgr. Debating Council; Mgr. Debating Council; Pres. Society; Respondent for Com- mencement; Commencement Orator; Societj Valedictorian; Member Student Council; Quips and Cranks Staff; Chief Marshal. An orator from wayback, somewhat like Demosthenes — at least in one respect. Demos- thenes ' oratory was like the sea. because of its roar, while Brother Can ' s is like the sea be cause of its great extent and little content. He finds great difficulty in deciding whether to be a lawyer a la W. J. Bryan or a backu Is M. E. parson. Maxej suffers from the dis- ease of Egotism, which arrives with his car- load of Bombast. His only redeeming feature is that he rooms with Jug King, which is em nigh hi mi ir for one man.

Young in year-, lint in nothing else, Conie is one of the brightest members of our class, that i- to say. in his smile that is ever present and his gay attire. In spite of his -mall -tature be i- quite an athlete, having led his class to victory many time- on the baseball diamond. Among his many accomplishments, Conie count- first bis power over the fair sex, all of whom fall victims to In- winning smile Height. 5 ft. o ' , ROBERT SYDNEY CUNNINGHAM, Anderson, S. C. Of boundless, almost formless content. A very sea of thought. B. S. Eu. Age. to, years in. Weight. 145 lbs.

Society, ' io- ' n: Senior Basketball team; Scrub Basketball team, ' io- ' n; Dramatic Club; Honor Roll Senior year; Instructor in Chemistry, ' io- ' n; I.e- Fous Trieze ; Mgr, Class Baseball. He went in for athletics in bi- Freshman year, but since then has become enamored of science, and has gone in (over his head) for Chemistry and the Higher Criticism, lie is somewhat of a stranger to the campus, usually being found in the chemical laboratory. His very demeanor impresses all beholders with the vastness and loftiness of bi- knowledge, and he is always more than willing to impart large chunks of said knowledge to am philo- sophical inquirer.
