THE NAUGHTY-SIX CACLYX JOHN RODDY DEVLIN. 1 came here to study, and my mission I fulfilled. ' ' Mr. Devlin, the son of John A. and M. L. Devlin, was lirst aroused, October 19, 1886, in the educational center of Due VVest, by the ringing' of the college bells. He first began to store up knowledge in the D. W. F. C. Kin- dergarten, and later in the Due VVest High School, which awarded him a medal for gener- al excellence. In '01 he began his college ca.- reer as a prep at Erskine, and since that time has made nothing' but A's C95 per cent. average, in his studies. He is connected with the Philomathean Literary Society and Y. M. C. A., and is business manager of both the Erskinian and the Calyx. He is a young man of fine character and devotion to duty, and we not only wisl1, but p1'edict, for him a large measure of success in life. gala! MARGARET ANSLEY FLENNIKEN.

For three years he has been a participant in the semi-annuals, and in his Freshman year was awarded a medal from his Society.
