PAULCONER TIALCOMB MD: A ic oo od te ae eee Te Adairville, Kentucky LIPSCOMB “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. ” Faulconer graduated from high school at Auburn, Ky., in the spring of 1918, and the following fall entered school here. While here he has made a good record and won many friends. His popularity is shown by the fact that he was selected as historian for the Senior Class of 1920. He has been a loyal member in his society, never failing to be true to the Blue and White. Faulconer’s disposition is one that is hard to understand at first, for “independence” is the predominating distinction; but when you come to know him, the qualities of true greatness and noble character are such as are rarely found. He is always happy and looks on the cheerful side of life; yet when a serious problem presents itself, he meets it calmly and has always been known to stand on the side that he thought was right in every- thing. We shall fondly remember him, and hope that his life will be crowned with honors. RU@THRORR Gbees eee horn ole seem hes eae en Ms .... Lewisburg, Tennessee KAPPA N “Modest, patient and lovable—she never changes” After attending the high school at Lewisburg, Tenn., and graduating from the Price- Webb School there, Ruth decided to come to the David Lipscomb College, entermg New Year, 1919. She has been an ideal student all the while, winning the admiration of both teachers and associates. She has obtained a remarkable knowledge of that language which proves a thorn in the flesh for so many pupils—Latin— being able to read it fluently. This is not becatise of talent alone, but is the fruit of hard work, which further portrays that sterling character and s‘ability of purpose which is so much a part of her. Ruth is a loyal Kappa Nu; also president of that dashing body of young ladies—the Leap Year Club. Al- though missing class honors by a fraction, she was given honorable mention by the faculty. Wherever Ruth may be after leaving school, we are sure she will be an inspiration to those around her. Page. twenty-four

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. She is indeed a ray of human sunshine sent to brighten all who may fall within its reach. Page twenty-three

Since then he has remained with us and striven each day for the honors he has now obtained. When the time came fon the class to select a poet, whom should we choose but Arthur? His polished politeness and gentle manners show him to be thoroughly Kentuckian. He has a wonderful tenor yoice which has won applause from more than one apprecia- live audience. Arthur has been a good pupil. However, he never worries over hard or long lessons. Many times while his classmates have pored over their lessons, he has slept soundly. One of his promi- nent characteristics is his good nature, so that whatever faults he may have are minimized by it. He has high ideals, and the class has a right to expect great results from his labors. We wish for him all that is glorious. geome VLAN NAL BS Ay ai totais ak ocee tute Sys SO i Oa ee Riverside, Tennessee SAPPHONEAN Theo came to the Nashville Bible School, as it was named at that time, at the beginning of 1914-1915 school year, but has been away a year and a half since that date.
