Dignity and composure sit enthroned on Ira ' s brow. Thoroughly self-confident he has succeeded in winning the confidence of those with whom he comes in contact. An excel- lent intellect, an especially good student in history and economics, broad-minded and pos- sessing sound judgment may be safely attrib- uted to Ira. Standing for the best things in life he impresses one with his ambition and devotion to worthy ideals. Repeatedly has he demonstrated his ability of oratory, debating and general scholarship, so that lie holds the high esteem of his fellow students. Possess- ing business and executive ability of a high order one may hazard the guess that his ear- nest and conscientious labor will tell in his life work. He is well paid who is well satisfied.

Jack enjoys the unique distinction of be- ing the youngest member of the class and the oldest student at Guilford. Six of his eighteen years have been spent here. Two in prep and four in college. His age speaks well for him as a student, and as for his future we can easily predict. Chemistry is his fort, although he passes everything else. He does not worry when he gets C ' s nor does he boast when he gets A ' s. He is an all round class-man and before him lies a great future. DAVID HOUGHTON JACKSON B. S. Guilford College, N. C. Jack

L,ithe of form, militant of spirit, strong of brain is Addie, our athlete — our all round Senior. During her college career she has championed the cause of girls ' athletics and lias done more to popularize the various sports among girls than any other member of our class. But don ' t get the mistaken idea into your head that athletics is her only strong point. Her scholarship has ever been of a uniformly high standard. In fact every phase of college life has felt the influence and power of this little maiden— the live wire of the Class of ' IS. She says that she is a suffra- gette ami she may come to the height of her ambition in a Senate ball or after all in a bungalow — Who knows ?

Bill is our baby, but though she is small everyone falls under the charm of her win- ning personality. She has entered heartily into all college activities and has won her just share of honors. Fortunate are those who can claim the friendship of this little brown-eyed maiden for her heart ever beats with warmth for those whom she calls her friends. Her ability as a writer and a musician is well known and we would predict a great future for her, but apparently her many charms have already proved irresistable, and doubtless some day, her looks a cottage would adorn.
