CEENNIDAVIDe DAVIS) BN ans ee os cs es oe eee. a Vlontgomery, Alabama CALLIOPEAN Glenn came to the college in the fall of 1919 and entered the Senior Class. In recognition of his steady work, the Senior Class has asked him to deliver the class oration on commencement day. However, “all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.’ He enters with enthusiasm in the recreation of the school. He is kind and considerate, always thinking of others’ welfare rather than his own. He has been a credit to the Senior Class, and we wish him success all through life. DARALM JO UREHANDILER:) b°So8n a atueaten ne aan ons ak ce birmingham, Alabama SAPPHONEAN From the dear old State of Alabama “Sassy,” as she is called by her schoolmates, left her home Sep- tember 5, 1917, to take up further work at the David Lipscomb College.

Rbakat DOROTHY MRTRIMAN ©. B Access ote) ace) ane ee Jacksonville, Florida SAPPHONEAN “And that smile, like sunshine, dart Into many a sunless heart, For a smile of God thou art” A few years ago from Jacksonville, Florida, Miss Dorothy Pittman came to the Nashville Bible School. She wanted an education, and a Christian education at that, even if she did have to go half-way across the Union to get it, so she came here. Not only has Miss Pittman acquired a literary education while with us, but she has also developed her musical talent, graduating from the music department last year. Dot, as she is spoken of by her friends, is loved by all. Being vivacious and of a happy, con- tented disposition, she easily makes friends and keeps them and can be counted on to do her part in any good work. In her society she is a zealous worker, taking a deep interest in its best welfare. May her whole life be spent in consecration to God, and may she ever live above that which is low and trivial, partaking of the happiness and peace which comes from above. ELIZABETH DAWSON: BAG een er: Soest 1 ter eee Adairville, Ky. SAPPHONEAN “Determination firm and true, With glowing hopes and bright, Are hers to use and to pursue, Since fixedly she stands for right.” Four years ago “Dawson,” as she is known among her friends, came to us from the Blue Grass State. Having completed two years’ high school course at Adairville, she decided to come to a place of better Christian environment; so she chose our college. Elizabeth in a short time after coming to our college cast her lot with the Sapphoneans and has been an ardent worker in that society ever since. In addi- tion to her literary course, she took up the study of art and has become very skilled in that work. She has lived such a modest life in her stay with us that she has won the admiration of both teach- ers and fellow students, and she will always be known to stand on the side of right. We wish for her a life of success and happiness. Page twenty-six

SENIORG JOHN: RAINEY? BA ais 5. ear eae ee Caney Spring, Tennessee LIPSCOMB Mr. Rainey came to the college in the fall of 1918, after an absence of several years, with the deter- mination to finish his classical course. During the last two years he has worked with diligence toward this end. He is an eloquent speaker and has done much good in the cause of Christ with this talent. He is respected by both faculty and students because of his sterling characteristics. He has a sunny disposition, a grin for everybody, and especially for the pretty girls. His highest aim at present is to complete his education in university. We hope that he will do this and other good things in his day. CECI GARDNER, B Aleiee: BY Pech eis SR ee Paragould, Arkansas KAPPA NU Cecil Gardner has spent two years in the David Lipscomb College, graduating in the spring of 1920. She came from Paragould, Arkansas, where she had spent some time in teaching. She saw the need of a broader education, and, knowing that no one can claim to be truly educated without a knowledge of God’s word, she placed herself where she would receive a lesson in it.each day. Cecil is one of the few who believe in living out in everyday the lessons learned from the Bible; and by so doing she has adorned herself not with “jewels of gold or fine apparel, but with a meek and quiet spirit which is in the sight of God of great price.” She has been diligent in her studies, quiet and unassuming in the classroom and among her fellow pupils; and she is respected and admired by all who know her. Her purpose in life is to be of service to her fellow creatures and to honor and glorify the name of God. ; Page twenty-eight
