He was a model student in the high school of that place during his earlier years, and, when he ex- hausted the supply of learning there, he came to Erskine, entering in IQO3. as a full Fresh- man. For two years his knowledge in- creased and multiplied in many ways. Spend- ing a year then as principal of the Sardis High School, he made active use of the many things that he had learned, Cassius came back to Erskine in 1906 as a Junior, dropped out again at the end of the lirst term. and returned a third time in IQO8 as a member of the present class. A member of the Philomathean So- ciety, he was vice-president, Junior debater on the semi-annual, Senior debater in 1909, and winner of the Sophomore essayist's medal.
