Kathryn Aderhoedt, A. B. HENRY RIVER, X. C. Good nature and good sense must ever join. KiTTy-did is the youngest of our Class. She came to us a mere child, hut during the four years of her so- journ here she has grown into a beautiful young lady. She is loved and honored by both faculty and stu- dents for her open-heartedness and sincerity. If you want a friend, in her you will find one in the truest sense. She believes in being happy, and rarely if ever do you find her blue. Kitty is a general favorite among the boys as well as the girls. Her mind is very receptive. She ex- pects to study Music and Expression. She is a faithful member of the Phila- lethean Society. The upbuilding and progress of her College lias ever been her foremost thought — she loves it as a second mother. We expect great things of Kitty. J. W. Aiken, A. I!. HICKORY, X. C. Unselfishness breaks the bonds zvhich vanity wraps about truth Hickory has been liberal with her sons for our Class. We have six with us, and they are all noble and indus- trious. John never makes a display of himself, lie believes in leading a high life, not for the purpose of mak ing others look up to him, but that he might by example lead others thereto, n all branches of the college course e lias been an efficient and willing worker. Mis presence tends to ele- vate those around him; his judgment is sound, and his counsel safe. Ib- is willing to supporf all causes which lave a noble aim. I le has never SOUghl honors, hut has received them nevertheless. I le believes in amuse- ment and recreation. Me expects to continue his literary work, and then probably study I. aw. Much success awaits hi in. Scrub I (ebater 101 .! : iuronian Anniversary 1015: llass Prophet 191;

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-

L. E. Bouek, A. Search diligently, and you shall find abundant truths hidden in mys- tery There is no member of the Class more admired than is LEO. He knows the right, and is always ready to de- fend it. He first entered in Septem- ber, 1910, but being in no special hurry to finish he taught one year. With determination renewed, he joined us in September, 1913. He has a clear mind, and a keen penetrative intellect. He does not go to school just to say that he has been through college, but that he might know the things that the world requires of a college graduate. He has received honors in scholarship. He was a member of the Euronian Society, but on account of inconvenience he had to give up that work last year. He nevertheless ranks high as a debater and public speaker. He always looks on the bright side of things, and very seldom does he become discouraged. The world promises him success as a minister and teacher. Scrub Debater 1911; Won Scholarship Medal 1912.

The world in its strangle for light needs men who see all things right LRROY entered the Freshman Class from Hickory High School in the Fall of 191 1. His face at once shows us that he is a student. Honor and popularity came to him without his striving. Not only in the classrooms has he shown his talents, but he stands high in Society work and in athletics. He is equipped for any duty that falls to a student. He stands on his own convictions, and is not led astray by hasty conclusions. He knows how to be friendly to all and partial to none. He gets pleasure out of all that he does, and is ever ready to help others. He is a great admirer of the Co-Eds, and they in turn render to him due admiration. Deaton has been a strong and active worker of the Euronian Society, Luther League, and other college or- ganizations. He expects to take a theological course. Fresh-Soph.
