Blanche Dora BeaTTIE, B. A. Euterpe X t A Lightly was her slender nose Tip— tilted like the petal of a flower. — Tenttyson. Miss Beattie is a native of Ohio and has the Ohian ' s way of coming to the fore in every situation. She is the highest authority in the Senior Class on English history, never failing to name correctly for Professor Williams, the Tudor, or Stuart rulers. She is devoted to the gymnasium and so great is her fondness for it, that she rarely fails to spend every spare moment at the end of the term, especially during examina- tion week, in the enjoyment of its advantages. Fred Browne, Ph. B., B. e. n., Franklin. At each stride a mile he measured. — Longfelloiv. Fred Browne is the one to whom we look up. Browne was born in 1875. Because of his great piety, and kindly interest in the spiritual wellfare of our flock he has by common con- sent been designated as Deacon. As manager of the foot-ball team in 1901 Browne displayed great ability. His plans for the future are not yet developed. Karl Ormond Burrer, B. S., Calliope. He told her he loved her. But umph, uniph, he lied. Karl is his father ' s oldest son. He was our distinguished president in 1900-1. An active Y. M. C. A. worker, an able foot-ball and base-ball player, a frequent caller at the Sem., he is a great favorite among the ladies. His skill as a me- chanic is exemplified in his Compression Steam Heater which is certain to make him famous. On account of his tendency to run away, it was feared for a time that Burrer would not be able to graduate. Edward Chamberlin Colby, B. L., Franklin. Wearing all that weight Of learning lightly like a flower — Tennyson. Colby, whose earthly career began a long time ago, is the favorite of the class. His smiling face and genial disposition have won for him many friends. As corresponding secretary and as treasurer of Franklin Literary Society his work has been splendid. He is a son of the president of the Board of Trustees, and for that reason carries himself with great dignity. 24

Fanny Fern Adams, Lit. B., Philomathean. Welcome whereso ' er she went. — U ' hitlier. Miss Adams enjoys the rare distinction of graduating twice. After completing her course with the class of ' Ul she saw, with regret, that it was to be eclipsed by its successor, and so she wisely cast in her lot with ' 02. Throughout her school life she has been one of the soundest students and best-liked girls of Shepirdson. She is an earnest Y. W. C. A. worker, and she crowned her services to Philo by serving a term as president. Ernest S. Ashbrook, a. B., P. D. O., Calliope. Human bodies are sic fools For a ' their colleges and schools. — Bums. He is not yet married, but it is supposed that he will be. Ashbrook is very handsome, which in no small degree, has had a tendency to brighten his prospects. He was our class secre- tary and treasurer in 1900-1. His popularity with the Profs is largely accounted for by his affable disposition. vSuccess is certain. Bi ANCHE Elizabeth Baker, Ph. B., Philomathean. Her ' s is a spirit deep and crystal-clear, Calmly beneath her earnest face it lies. — Lowell. From the far north — how far we do not say — Miss Baker comes to us. After graduating from the preparatory depart- ment she entered Denison, where she has acquitted herself with honor. So proficient has she been in her studies that last year she was enabled to take a v- ' ication of two terms, a part of which time she spent in teaching the young ideas how to shoot. She is the only Senior in Burton Hall and thus wields an authority to which even the haughty Junior must bow. Lewis Henry Beall, A. B., Franklin. My mind to me a kingdom is. — Dyer. Beall was born in 1877. He is an excellent student. In language he stands well toward the head of the class. He is a Y. M. C. A. worker and has gained some reputation as a ball player. His life work will Vje that of teaching modern languages for which he is preeminently fitted. 23

Miss Crilly was graduated from the Newark High School in ,)8 and in the following fall entered Denison. She is one of the bright and shining lights of the clas«, her mind being a veritable storehouse of scientific information. She loves to use her pen and quite frequently produces a poem. When called upon to make extemporaneous talks in Society, with her accus- tomed meekness she cheerfully responds. Aside from a few love affairs her life has thus far run very smoothly. Oscar Robert Olskn Farei., A. B., Calliope. As unto the bow the cord is. So unto man is woman. — Longfellow. Mr. Farel, otherwise known as Minnie, Far Knell of Iowa, Doctor, etc., etc., is our beloved president. He was born in 1868. As a soldier he is distinguished for his great bravery evinced in breaking the guard lines and terrorizing the guards. As president of Calliope he showed great ability. In 1901 he was the Junior toaster at the Washington Banquet, and was honored as toast master of the banquet given in honor of Presi- dent E. W. Hunt in 1902. Ray GII.PATRICK, Ph. B., Euterpe, X Si- A She has two eyes, so soft and brown ; Take care ! —Longfelloiv. This young lady was born in Granville in the year of . A Frenchman says, a woman is only as old as she looks. Her college course has been somewhat broken. Denison gave her to Ogontz for a year, after which she claimed her again. She is an earnest student, and as Theophilus Moonshine, lecturer, a shining success. She has applied for the position of teacher in the school commonly known as Devil ' s Den in Hard Scrabble County, Tenn. She goes bearing the following .strong recommendation : The bearer of this paper is Ray Gilpatrick. I can safely assure you that if you want a teacher with good horse sense she is your man. Prof. C. L. Wiixiams. George E. Hartshorn, B. L., Ben, Franklin. Orator and Poet. A youth of sterling character, born in modern times, he comes of noble stock. Yes George is a jewel and, in fact, is often associated with the Pearl of great price. He has held divers offices in various organizations and was the honored Senior toaster at the banquet given in honor of President Hunt, by the Senior Class. Hard work has changed his features so that he is scarcely known in communities where he has not been before.
