C. O. Lippard. A. B. statesvii.le, x. c. Honest conviction is a bulwark to manhood C. O. believes in doing the right thing at the right time and in the right way. He is a student, poet, and business man. The Class is glad to have such a man. He is true to Ins convictions, and free in his counsel. His literary capacity is very large; especially is he interested in the Eng- lish language and poetry. If you want to see some of his work, 1 in the Lenoirian, and Hacawa. is not one-sided. Whatever he sees to be done, in the Society, classroom, or athletic field, he is ready to do. He is a member of the Chres- tonian Society. He is a good debater, and a pleasing speaker. He has never confined himself to text hooks in ol- der to obtain honors, but he believes in broadening his views on all sub- jects. The future has a way to suc- cess open to him in the field of the ministry. Scrub Anniversary De- bater 191 3; Chrestonian Anniversary Debater 1 9 1 4 : Ternis anager 1914-15; Class Poet 1915. Annie; Powlas, A. B. BARBER JUNCTION, X. C. To be most useful is the greatest virtue. A xxii ' . has .surmounted the difficul- ties that beset her when she entered college. She has worked hard, dili- gently, and wisely. She has been an ardent Society worker, and the Phila- lethean Society will miss her. AxxiK las won that highest form of success which comes to the one who never shrinks from danger, strife, or bitter toil. Annie has tried to find her true place in life. She has studied some Music, Expression, and Voice. She be- lieves that in a useful life lies the lest and truest virtue, and thai she can obtain this virtue by lending a helping hand to a certain young Theolog. She is very religious, and •elieves in doing the right thing re- gardless of the consequences. We expect to hear ureal things of her in the religious world.

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.

C. A. Kipps, A. B REPTOX MIUS, VA. Whatsoever thy do it hands find to Kipps came to us from Northern Virginia. We congratulate him for joining this Old North State Band. He has been a loyal and faithful member. He is a patient and dili- gent student, ever seeking for rela- tive causes and reasons. He has never sought popularity, even among his classmates, but he is well thought of by both Faculty and students. He has been an active worker in all col- lege organizations — religious, literary, and athletic. His lot was cast with the members of the Chrestonian Lit- erary Society at his entrance in Sep- tember, 1910, and he has been an earnest supporter of their colors ever since. But he is not a narrow par- tisan. His good wishes go out to all organizations, whether he is person- ally interested or not. He ex- pects to study Theology. We predict for him a prosperous future. Scrub Debater 1913; Chrestonian Anniv ersary I9I5- Gertrude Kohn, A. B. MOUNT HOLLY, N. C. She has a head to contrive, a tontine to persuade, and a hand to exe- cute. . Gertie has spent only two years with us, but in these two years she las proved herself to be what she seemed. Her mental capacity is seemingly unbounded. She has a free flow of language, and can discuss al- most any question. When she under- takes a thing, she is not satisfied until it is completed. Gertie is a woman of noble, splendid, pure character. She does not hesitate to say to your face what she would say behind your iack. The Philalethean Society is indebted to her for much of its prog- ress. She is also a musician, and has studied some Voice and Expres- sion. Bi fact, you will rarely find a girl more accomplished than our Gertie. We feel srre that success awaits her in the vast field of teach-
