George Warren Gignilliat Seneca, S. C. A.B. ; Eu. ; Bachelors Club; Blue Pencil Club Deeper, deeper lei us loll In ihe minds of f(noTvledge. No, that isn ' t my name — it s pro- nounced ' Ginilet. ' We have since had reason to remember that name because it conlinually appears after articles in the Davidsonian and the Magazine, and in other places of honor. And we predict that in the not far distant future the owner of that name will push it higher still in the world of fame. Gun has always stood high on the Honor Roll, but in spite of his great store of knowledge he is usually silent. On the whole, he is one of ' !5 ' s greatest assets. Honor Roll (4); Magazine Staff; Davidsonian Staff. John Wm. Stuart Gilchrist Charlotte, N. C. B.S.; Phi.; B © H; Blue Pencil Club; Gryphon A faultless body and a blame- less mind. Poet, artist, orator, ladies man, and athlete; all of these and more is the Englishman. His poetry is charming, his prose magnetic, and ever smce he startled our customary Junior Speaking slumbers with the phrase, grandiloquently loqua- cious, Ing has held a reputation as an orator. He is noted for his speed qual- ities, and when on the cinder track never fails to excite admiration. First Supervisor, Second Critic, First Critic, Vice-President and President Phi.

James Enoch Faw Marietta, Ga. A.B. ; Eu. ; Gryphon; Blue Pencil Club A heart to resolve, a head to contrive, and a hand to execute. He is not from Atlanta, but he hat the Atlanta spirit. Enoch means busi- ness; whatever he does he does it with his might, and whatever he undertakes will surely be done well. If you want to find out anything, it doesn ' t matter what it is, just ask Enoch. He is interested in everything, a close observer and well in- formed on any subject, and the best of it is, he will gladly inform you. To know him is to like him, and if you have not known him you have missed a whole lot in your college course. Declaimer s Rep : Orchestra and Glee Club (4); Manager Orchestra; Manager Soph Banquet: Commencement Marshal: Magazine Staff (2); Assistant Manager and Manager QuiPS AND Cranks. Charles Mitchell Gibbs Cornelia, Ga. A.B.; Eu. The mildest manners and the gentlest heart. To say that Charlie is a religious man does not mean that he advertises his re- ligion with a brass band nor that he keeps it in his inside pocket for display on spe- cial occasions. Charlie lives his convic- tions, day by day, very quietly, very un- obtrusively, but with a magnetism that has won him a wide circle of friends and in- fluence. Gentle of manner and big of heart, an honorable mention student and faithful society worker, a sincere and trusty friend, but wilhal a lover of fun and the funny, he has been a backbone of the class, and we wish him every suc- cess in his chosen life work, the foreign field. Secretary-Treasurer and Historian Class; Vice-President, Treasurer and President Eu. Society; Vice-President Y. M. C. A.; Vice-President Student Vol- unteer Band (2) ; Student Council.

HU Ifuj. M b William Wesley Griffin Ninety Six. S. C. B.S.: Eu. And e ' en though vanquished, he rvould argue slill. When Bill left home for Davidson his Fresh year the whole town was in an up- roar, for the very year before, Halliwan- ger had left and ihey had the trouble of changing the name of the city from Nine- ty Seven to Ninety Six, and they hated to change again. But Bill told them that his thoughts would be with them all the lime no matter where he might be, and they finally decided to let him go without changing the city ' s name agam. Bill is quiet, modest and unassuming, a gentleman at all times. He can work while he works and play when he plays, and is the kind of man who accomplishes the big things in life. Class Football ; Secretary-Treasurer Senior Class. Fred Lee Harkey Charlotte, N. C. A.B.; Phi. Great of stature, broad of mind. True of heart and ever l(ind. Harkey joined our class at the begin- ning of our Soph year and has been a prominent member ever since. He is one of the tallest fellows on the campus and he is looked up to by everyone. As stu- dent and as man he has shown his true worth, while his success as marshal shows that he also has claims to the distinction of being a true sport. He occupies an elevated position among us, not only physically, but in many other ways, and we believe that his life will be a great success. Best wishes, big fellow!
