HELEN FRAZIER, A. B. Milligan College, Tennessee. No one is so accursed by Pate, No one so utterly Desolate, But some Heart though unknown Responds unto his own. So, Helen Pair, Never despair. As that smile like Sunshine ' s dart Must touch some sunless heart, Por a smile of God thou art. Secretary and Treasurer Senior Class; Editor-in-Chief of the Buffalo; Associate Editor the Periscope; Charter Member Phil- omathean Literary Society; Autocrat of the editorial room; Inter-society Debater; Pac- ulty Monitor; Member Dramatic Club; Mem- ber Orchestra; spends much time drawing a Bow. Helen is versatile; talented; analytical; critical; a hard student and a hard knocker. In Philosophy a radical; in Theology a nondescript; in Politics an anarchist; in other things, a genius of the first order; in debate, cold, merciless, logical, legalistic. But friends of the Inner Circle insist that behind an invincible intellectual citadel, there burns a great big heart full of ten- derest pathos and altruism which makes the best of everything; thinks the best of everybody; and gives to all, love . We shall all alike be disappointed if Helen does not win for herself a place of real distinc- tion among those who do distinctive service and win distinctive laurels. 23

IF iTM. Eod] A. PAUL DAUGHERTY, A. B. Vice-President of Senior Class; Vice- President of Ministeral Association; Asso- ciate Editor Periscope; Local Editor of An- nual; Member of American Literary So- ciety; Dramatic Club; Pastor First Chris- tian Church, Greeneville, Tennessee; Con- ductor of Choral Music. Mr. Paul Daugherty is one of Milligan ' s most promising young men. With his va- ried talent, he has impressed his personality upon our college life; and to him we are loath to say goode-bye. A native of Florida, he must have caught the spirit of the land of perpetual summer, for who that comes in contact with him is not conscious of the warmth and glow of a generous heart and a loyal friend. At the age of fifteen he won a scholar- ship in Art. Then he began to devote him- self to music until finally he distinguished liimself in Chicago as an honor student under such vocal teachers as La Berge at the American Conservatory, and Sacerdote at the Chicago Musical College. During this time he conducted a choir in one of the churches there. Toward the close of the recent World War he enlisted in the Navy, and was placed in reserve for the Officer ' s Training School just before the Armistice was signed. Soon after he came to Milligan he captured one of her fairest maidens and is one of the Benedicts of our class. 22

Hi ItJf JF 51= IL, [nj ARTHUR M. DEPEW, A. B. Chauncey Preacher. Jonesboro, Tennessee. Never King by right divine Ruled a richer realm than mine Everywhere that I can fly There I ov n the earth and sky. President American Literary Society; Member and Manager 1917 Basketball Squad; member and Manager 1918 Football Team; Manager 1918 Baseball Team; Fac- ulty Politician; Member Di amatic Club; Inter-Collegiate Debating Team; Curricu- lum Expert; President Bachelors Club; Business Manager Buffalo; Teacher; Editor; Pastor; Soldier; Y. M. C. A. Secretary in the Balkans. Chauncey never flinches; never com- plains; never flirts; never surrenders; never studies; fond of French; ardent lover; three whole days at once if the weather be fair; an adept in getting credits; a wizard at argumentation, his most brilliant forensic attempts being upon subjects he knows least abo ut. Force, perseverance, aggressiveness, are manifestly his strong characteristics, but not the whole of his make-up. In moments of reflection, he often says, Let me live beside the road and be a friend to man. There is a gentleness in his strength; a pathos in his austerity; a grace in his awk- wardness. These paradoxes constitute a unique and impressive personality v hich one can- not fail to recognize and respect. Even the faculty will admit with modest reservation that Mr. Depew is destined to make him- self felt in the world, and his class-mates predict for him, in most sanguine terms, a career of distinction and renown. 24
