Gf.orgf. Brown Hoyt Atlanta, Ga. And when a lady ' s in the case. You knoiv all other things give place. There ' s a shady dell in the Blue Ridge mountains of V irginia that has the power at any time of turn- ing this sad heart into a gushing fountain of poetry. He tells you something about a cow track be- neath a coniferous tree up there somewhere. Save for this one sub- ject, however, he is a poet of the first water. Honor Roll ; Commencement Marshal; Class Basket-ball (3); Manager Class Basket-ball. A.B., Eu, Ba chelors ' Club. Walter A. Johnson Little Rock, Ark. ' Tis better to have loved and lost. Than never to have loved at all. Since, in days of Auld Lang Syne, we sat together five hours a week on Prep Greek, Johnson has held a high place in our regard. He has been one of the most effi- cient cogs in the college machinerj during the four years he has been here. He has kept the campus supplied with photographs, shoes or anything else it might need.

Thomas Morlev Hill StatesviUe, N. C. Hii valor and his generous mind Prove him superior of his kind. Tom hails from the Best town in North Carolina, so we natur- ally expected a good deal from him. Quiet, good-natured and efficient, he is liked by all. He so distin- guished himself in class football that the coaches decided he was too good for that league and he has been taking varsity trips ever since.

An outdoor sign of all the ivarmth li ' ithin. He never says die. Perhaps his most striking trait is stick-to-it-ive- ncss. H this ability gives him as much success in after life as it has at Davidson, he will some day he one of Davidson ' s star Alumni.

TI Hll J jy i William Latta Law, Jr. Rock Hill, S. C. Of manners gentle, 0 affections mild. Of wit a man, simplicity a child. Good student, good athlete, good man — that ' s Latta. We might add good-looker, good ladies ' man. Whether he has just come out of a tough football scrimmage or from the noxious fumes of the Chcm. Lab., Latta always has on a cherry smile and a cheery word.

Robert Hayijes Jones Greenwood, S. C. A votary to fond desire. Possum and his two col- leagues, Drs. MacConnell and Douglas, know more about Bi- ology and Physics than any trio we know anything about. Possum is one of the most popular men in the class. He al- ways has a cheerful smile and a friendly greeting for you and is always willing to do his part and do it well. H he goes into medi- cine, he is going to make a suc- cess and if he doesn ' t he is going to mnke a success. B.S.
