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

Ls. Ee PRYOR, De tears eae, eee eee a toe, ON Roe sale me Aeep aie Arkansas CALLIOPEAN — In the fall of 1919 Brother Pryor came from Columbia County, Arkansas, to enter David Lipscomb College, hoping to attain the goal fer which he had always anxiously longed. Success awaited the efforts of this diligent student, and he leaves the school with a record of which he may well feel proud. Brother Pryor has won the esteem of his fellow students and teachers by his modest, dignified and ear- nest disposition, while his ambition and spirituality will, without a doubt, have great influence for good. He was always kind and thoughtful and willing to help with every good work, taking an open and fearless stand for that which is right. It is through his love for God, truth and men that he feels it his duty to teach and assist others in the way that leadeth to life eternal. This he has been success- fully doing for the last seven years in connection with his school work.
