Page twenty-one SENIOR CLASS POEM As I walk among the shadows In the grand old Hall of Fame, Catching here and there a likeness, Bringing back forgotten names; As their spirits seem to hover Like an incerse over all, Visions come of days departed, And o’ershadow like a pall. I had scarcely passed the entrance Of this dear old Stately Hall, When my notice was arrested By well-known figures tall. As I gazed upon the features, Full of calm and stately graces, Surely in the lapse of ages I had somewhere seen those faces. Many faces once familiar— Seventeen, yes, and one—I saw 5 . Hanging in that Hall of Fortune— Perfect lives with scarce a flaw. Some were in the Hall of Science, Some had chosen that of Art, Some had lived in realms of Music— Each had chosen his own part. As I looked in silent wonder Into those faces many, And suddenly I caught the meaning— Twas the Class of 1920. There I bowed my head in rev'rence To my class-mates fond and fair, For I would have been surprised more lf [ had not found you there. —Arthur M. Henry, Jr.

He graduated at Burritt in 1917 with class honors. Since then he has preached in Arkansas and Tennessee. Although he spent sev- eral months in the service of Uncle Sam, he still believes that the Christian warfare is not carnal. Mr. Beck is a real Southern gentleman of calm strength and chivalrous loyalty. Soon after commencement he will go to the Georgia fields. The Class of ’20 rejoices that his lot has been cast there, knowing that he will in all circumstances prove himself a man of unflinching rectitude.

She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness” Three years ago Miss Barry ertered David Lipscomb College. She came with that purpose in view which has ever characterized her work and has finally led her to the honor which is now hers. She finishes her course here, winning the first honor in this large class of eighteen. She has so conducted her life and actions since she came into our midst that she has won the love and esteem of all.
