Senior Class History i I OR] the day of pay-as-you-enter cars on the Long Belt and electric bells in the buildings to notify the tireless professor and tiresome student that the period was up. there came to Mercer a bunch of freshmen. Despite appearances and the ctions of the pessimists and calamity howlers, they have through the process of evolution developed into the senior class. I he men of '14 with untiring effort, steady perseverance and inu|ucstioncd ability have almost reached the goal which lias been their aim during these four years. As freshmen we behold them, unsophisticated in the ways of college life, buying chapel seats and bath tickets. Some of them at the sugges- tion of the upper classmen visited Ocmulgee Park and went strawberry hunting at night. Under the guidance and inspiration of Professor Snoddy they began their work in Lnglish and (ierman. In Dick Holmes’ Fresh- matt Latin they made numerous t minuses, and busted world without end in Freshman Mathematics. The}1 regularly attended the church socials and IF V. P. U. entertainments given to Mercer students whenever re- freshments were to be served or the W esleyan girls were to be there. Now, after four years of college life they still possess those charac- teristic traits which they had in the beginning. With the same amount of noise and laughter do they greet the time-worn and stale jokes perpe- trated in chapel or Indicted upon them ill the class-room by the professor. I he class as a whole has believed consistently in cutting on the first day of April and other important days. In this class are men who have already shown their ability 111 athletics, in debating ami oratory, as preach- ers and teachers. There are also among them others who may yet become great. After having absorbed their till of the influences, traditions, and opportunities of college life they are now ready to face the stern realities of life.

In Hadem with the Senior Law Class “Come In.” The door opened and J was ushered into a dark and dingy hallway- Whom do you wish to see?” I recognized the familiar voice of the door-keeper, Red Levies ol all men! I exclaimed, it is certainly good to meet an old Iricnd down here. “Why, hello, George, was his chccrlul reply, we've been looking for you. “How do you like this under-world lile? ! asked. “ ot so had as ns cracked up to be. oil see I have a soft snap around here—just meet people and show them around. But those poor fellows down stairs—” “By the way. Red, J whispered, “is old Nicholson down here? “1 should say so, my informer replied, “and he has been on the war path for you. Gee! I had belter disguise myself, or hide, or something— Oil, there's no hurry, Nich is serving a thousand-year sentence in the cooler at present.” What was his offense?” “1 It- plotted to depose his Santurlic Majesty and usurp the throne, but when the Governor overheard Nich making one of his speeches about democratic liberty, it was all up with Nich. About that time Bell and Cowart bolted and the jig was up. What does he do while serving his sentence? Work?” No, his punishment is more severe. I le has to listen to John Kel- ley’s funny stories. Bv the way ' exclaimed my guide, “it's about time for us to catch the next elevator down,” “(dh, who runs the elevator? Maybe I could get that job.” 1 en- quired, eagerly, Not a chance. Bill Turpin's got that job sewed up.” How did he happen to get it? Well, you know Bill always was a good h— raiser.” When we got down to the 999th floor we saw at the end of a long dark passage-way a flaming red sign reading; “Headquarters Class '1+. Mercer Law Department. The darkness was enough to frighten Pluto himself, but this was small in comparison with the strange and unearthly noise that met: my cars, I shrank back in terror, hut Levie grabbed me and whispered, reassuringly in my ear: “Don't be frightened, old man, it’s only Walden snoring, lie sleeps over there all the tunc, “Who is that tall man leaning against the wall?” I asked. “That's Rice. He’s foreman of this department.” “How in the dc—er, I mean how did he ever get that job? 1 “Hootlick, man, hootlick. I k has the best hootlick of any man down here. You know that was always his long suit. I Ie and Jackson— “Jackson!” I interrupted, “What is he doing here? Deacon here!” Levy laughed so heartily that I was almost offended. “Deacon,’' he fairly roared. “Why man, there are deacons and parsons down here to burn? “Nearly all of the old boys are here. Let's have a reunion.” “Yes, they arc all here except Look, Bussell and Martin. Look was here but he got away.” “I low did he manage to escape?” “He asked so many questions that the Governor tired him.” “And what's the matter with Bussell anil Martin?” “Oh, they were too good to come here; they went to heaven. I got a letter from Bussell to-day, begging to come down here because Martin’s in heaven?” Here the Governor himself arrived on the scene. Levy was sent back to his post at the door and I was assigned to a beautiful new shovel and put to work between Hardell and Moore. tomtwm Senior Pharmacy Class OFFICERS G. II, Cochran VV. T. Huff .

W Worthy, K. L, Junior Glass History ;S classes come and go, each is proclaimed by its adherents “the hest ever,” and each year we hear that the ne plus ultra of col- lege achievement has been reached; all of which is pardonable, to say the least of it, Loyalty is universally recognized ami appreciated as a gem of purest ray serene. Not upon any partisan spirit, however, do we as members of the class of 191% base our claims to great- ness. Far from it! “Bv their works ye shall know them. Incredible as it may seem, wc were once a legion of more or less lusty Freshmen. To our formidable array of intellectual and physical talent, cities, t illages, and isolated farms contributed, and in the fall ol IQ n we assembled on the campus to do battle with the powers that be. Long boys and short boys, hoys who wore glasses and boys who wore suspenders; worldly-wise boys and excellent plow-boys; our common aim was to make history at Mercer, Of course we didn't begin grabbing laurels on the first day of our arrival, line aforementioned “powers,11 consisting of obliging Sophomores, Juniors, Seniors and professors, happened to know the ropes pretty well, and so we embraced the earliest opportunity to absorb a few practical lessons. We learned, for instance, that the mahjlitv to do certain things is purely imaginary, lacking only a proper stimulus; that “he who fights and runs away is quite likely to regret it; that all things come to linn who waits; and lastly, that the disjointed aspect of things as they appear in days of tribulation soon blends into harmonious accord. Thanks to these helpful hints, our march as conquering heroes was not long delayed, and with ever-lengthening stride and bolder mien we have pressed tm to this good hour. On the athletic field and in the “gym our prowess has been and is still respected. Often have we felt the thrill of victory: often have we played the role of generous victors; and best of all perhaps, when the few occasions of defeat have come our way we believe that we have met the exacting requirements of good losers. And that, after all. is the acid test of true manhood. Along the lines other than athletic nur record is one to be proud of. Leery worthy activity on the campus is supported by our representatives. Not all ol us have sounded the depths of the perennial springs from which the philosophers drink, but thanks to natural endowments, coupled with the well-known process of absorption, wc arc confident that the intellectual status ol the race will receive a decided boost upon our advent into the realm of action. Tor we have come to Mercer, seen things, and gloriously conquered. Junior Football Team Adams .... Gunn . ... . Estes............ Wheeler - Massey .... Christopher Peyton . Wells . . . , . Maughos .

Di-versified Freshmen At lirsl they vent to bed at night and rolled about till dawn. Because to them the lights were new—they could not turn them on. And some then went to L’title Jeff, and scared and trembling said ; •'Doctor, may we go out to town? We’ll hurry back to bed.’1 And some hied to Ocniulgee Park ori Sunday alternuon. And gaped there while the dark-skinned band played every age-old tunc. And some who came from village schools looked around in anxious awe To find a class-room hig enough tor all the boys they saw. The bath-tubs grew in great demand,—a lesson must be taught. And so those Freshmen Hashed their rolls and bath-tub tickets bought. And one forgot and placed a bet against our tootb.il! team. And ihen into a tub he crawled, which woke him from his dream. And one bragged that he’d not be spanked, and loudly did he swear: Til whip them as religiously as I would say my prayer.” I hey got him when the sun ivas high, arid loud the anvil rang, I’ntil lie thought thr sun had dropped and smote him lap ker-bang.

Gkav, Jf. W c now have residing with us on the campus a four-legged “ani- mule that is making his presence noticeable in various ami sundry ways, drays, ami brays. Of course we have had jacks on the campus before, both straight and interlinear, as Prof. Pulliam can testify, but this is the first time we have had a combination of both', lor when St. John, the African, gets Mol lie, the mule, hitched up to the wagon, she is both straight and interlinear. Long have we pined for a four-legged jackass instead of so many two-legged ones running around on the campus. And now late in the years of our college life wc are realizing at least part of the dreams and fond hopes of our desires. Lven as the mouse was able to help the lion, so may Mol lie in her humble, though drawing way, help to beautify the campus ami set it free from the fetters of weeds, bricks, stumps and sticks hv removing them far from tilt maddening crowd and bustle of the other campus Jacks. And when in later years, after she has served her time long and faith- fully, may she hang her head over the pasture fence of some South (,cor- gi a farm, and bray encouragement to some hard-working plough-hoy, and may that Freshman, catching the spirit of her enthusiasm, come to Alerter. If he does, and works with one-half the might and persistence ol Mollie, he will not have to use jacks to achieve the goal of his desire—a diploma. “Long may she bray and dray.
