Elvira Sheely, A. B. BALEENTINE,, S. C. see bright honor sparkling in her eyes. Rarely indeed do we find a young lady who has such a wonderful per- sonality. To say that she is pretty is not enough ; for she has that which is far deeper and truer than mere beauty — she is cheerful and happy. Her anger is seldom aroused, but when it is. there is a storm. She is very popular among the girls, and it is not hard for a boy to lose his heart after a chat with her. Trixie is a good student, a lover of the Eumen- ean Society and her College. She is a hard worker, and we predict for her a successful career. Her aim at present is the mission field, and we will not be surprised to hear of her in the near future laboring in Japan. The prayers and good wishes of the Class go with her in whatever voca- tion she may choose. R. T. Troutman, A. 11. STATESYII.I.E, X. C.

On the athletic field, he can show great skill. lie has never courted undue popularity and honor, but both lave been justly bestowed upon him. We can - ! blame him for nol giving so much attention t the young ladies, when we understand that be has three names on his mailing list.

Carroll N. Yount, A. B. hickory, n. c. A strong mind, a sincere heart, and a clear conscience. Carroll, our esteemed president, entered our Class in September, 1910. He has a wonderfully strong intel- lect, and a large vision of life. He has good, sound judgment, and rare executive ability. He has been an earnest member of the Euronian So- ciety, a leader in Christian activities, and a faithful supporter of the dif- ferent organizations of the College. He is modest and unassuming, almost to a fault. He says little, but lives much. He is the very synonym of unselfishness — cares nothing about honors for himself. He is a friend in the true sense of the word. He has no enemies. He is very popular, es- pecially among the ladies. He in- tends to study Theology. We pre- dict for him great success. His life is gentle, and the elements so mixed in him, that Nature might stand up and say to all the world, ' This is a man ' ! Scrub Debater 1912; Eunonian Anniversary De- bater 19 14; President of the Executive Council 1915- G. H. Huffman, A. B. HICKORY, N. C. What ' s the use of being at alt, if you can ' t be right. (jROvEk entered our Class in full force last Fall. He took part of the work last year, but decided to come back and finish this year. He is As- sistant in the physical and chemical laboratories. This work seems to appeal very much to him, and he has already reached the stage of consid- erable advancement. He is a thor- ough and practical student, willing helper, and a friend to all. He is always on hand when he is wanted. Though a busy man, he spends con- siderable time in the social activities of the College. We don ' t wonder, though, why he is so very popular, when we stop to think of his father ' s large hotel up town. He can adapt nmself to all classes of people. He expects to take a theological course. He has been a strong supporter of the Chrestonian So- ciety. He is a good singer. Scrub Debater 191 1; Chrestonian Anniver s a r y 1915 ; Played the part of Polonius in Hamlet 1914.

Dora Rhodes, A. B. DALLAS, n. c. What ' s the use to know anything, if you can ' t fell if to others. ' Dora stands high as a student in all the college work. She is a leader among her numerous friends. She is self-willed, but by no means inclined to be unsubmissive to higher author- ity. She has a broad practical view of life, is a willing helper to all, and cares nothing for personal honors. She has great executive ability, and has had the honor of being leader in several such bodies. Her strong per- sonality and keen penetrative insight show her to be an exceptional type of woman. She has almost com- pleted the course in Expression here, along with her regular literary course. Her mental capacity is copious, and her practical judgment safe. She is a strong member of the Eumenean Society. She exoects to teach. G. L. Sawyer, A. B. HICKORY, N. C. Determination prepares its own way to sueeess It seems. as if for a while George drifted along in the valley of inde- cision, lint now he is striving with one definite aim. At one time he thought he wanted to stop school and teach, and did so for one year: but he caught the vision of something higher, and decided to come back to school with the intention of making it real, lie was enrolled in our Class in Sep- tember, 1913, and has proved to be a valuable addition. He does not claim to be an intellectual genius, but is ever guided by the thought, 1 can if I will. He has not contended for special honors, but lias been diligent in all branches of the College and church work. He is a member of the Euronian Society, and has been very much interested in its welfare, tall and handsome, but will not allow himself to be given any atten- tion by the girls.
