Frank has rightly been called the genius of the Class. His record as a student is to be envied. He is a great admirer of Nature, appre- ciates the artistic pictures of the poet, and finds pleasure in the mysteries of science and phil- osophy. One glance at his countenance reveals his remarkable personality. This personality is the source of his great executive ability. Frank is a peerless orator and debater, from whose persuasive lips flow words sweeter than honey. He expects to develop his literary talent more fully, and eventually to study law. We feel confident that the future holds in store for him unexampled success. In joys, in grief, in triumphs, in reireat. Great always, without aiming to be great Daisy Agner, A. B. SALISBURY, N. C. Daisy is a great favorite with the girls and boys, because of her natural wit and originality. Entering as a Sub-Freshman, for five years has she imbibed at dear Lenoir ' s fountain of wis- dom. Besides her regular work, she has devoted some time to Music, and has been a leading spirit in the Eumenean Society. Faith in Daisy ' s abilities and perseverance leads us to expect great things from her. A merry heart goes all the Jay Twenty-two

Senior Class Poem ONG our weary feet have trod; Our path at times has seemed quite hard; Through Lenoir ' s open door we ' ve passed, And knowledge we strove for to the last. But trials and troubles do appear, And thin our ranks have grown each year; We rally round, and with a thrill, Yet find we ' re our own even still. Dear classmates, through life ' s shifty way, Remember Lenoir still ; and may College days claim a memory, Whose rays will brighten our journey. But now the goal salutes our gaze, The last of many college days. We crave the grace to plant a tree And sing the song of memory. When we survey the fading past, And dream of days that went so fast; Full many a thorn that once was ours. Seems all a-bloom now with flowers. But let the strain of music cease Which pleads of days and hours like these. Another note pleads loud and clear. Exulting Hope leaps up to hear The bugle call of life to men, Who must the battle now begin. How sternly sweet that lofty song — Defend the right, redress the wrong! — R. Bruce Sigmon, Class Poet Twenty-one

Mary Allen, Domestic Science hickory, n. c. Mary has been in school at Lenoir for two years. It is apparent that she is especially gifted in the art of Domestic Science. To her it has ever been a delight to sit and dream of the dainties she can make from cream. Possessed of a keen sense of humor, she is a girl to whom the bright and joyous in life appeals most. She is sincere and loyal to her friends, and ever ready to help them. Mary intends to specialize further in her chosen work. We predict for her success; for when she once makes up her mind to accomplish anything, she usually succeeds. C. V. Cline, A. HICKORY, N. C. Scrub Debater 12-13; Junior Orator 15; Class Orator 16. Doc was preparing to study medicine when one day he decided that there is not enough money in pill-slinging, and so he has made up his mind to go into business. He is a strong advocate of the flowery-bed theory of life. On special occasions — f or example, when someone tries to down him in Society — he gives vent to impassioned eloquence. Carl is a shrewd in- dividual, and this fact, combined with his jovial, carefree disposition, will make him a leader. To strive, to seefc, to find, and not to yield The mind ' s the measure of the man Twenty-three
