I dug in a desert place And found a spring at play,— I cooled my sun-burned face And went upon my way. And then, when years had flown, 1 came that way again — And lo, in the waste had grown The homes of a thousand men. The thing itself was small 1 spoke a word one day To a soul about to fall, — And went upon my way. And then, ere very long, I met that soul again — And it, with purpose strong, Was lifting fallen men. I had dug in a desert life And found a playing spring, That grew to a torrent rife,- ’Twas only a little thing. on rra OQ M£ -Vv; ' 24

Shelton Gambuell Posey, B.A., Vivian, Louisiana. A preacher with dignified air, A boy who’s your friend, on the square, A decided brunette, Whom the ladies can’t get — Tho they’ve set for him many a snare. Lawrence County High School and South Mississippi College contributed their part toward shaping this bril- liant chunk of manhood. He entered the Sophomore class at M. C. in ’10 and has made as many friends as any man in school. He possesses all the qualities that con- stitute a perfect gentleman, and has turned his influence toward every good purpose in College work. As a student he is thorough, a speaker logical, a Christian of the highest type, a man with convictions and courage to voice them. Hermanian Pres., Senior Pres., B. Y. P. U. Pres., Choir Leader, Class Football, ’13. £ V W Pat Henry Eager, Jr., Clinton, Mississippi. Mae be it’s this, or Mae be it ' s that , Or it Mae be he’s making a flat, Tho his chances are meager, We know that young Eager Is trying to make her stand Pat. Pat’s education is a side line and he never lets it interfere with his real college activities. As corporal in Dutchie’s Legion he showed great zeal and courage as a soldier. His work in the class-room is much to his credit, however, considering that it was done between times. Dutch and History are his strong points, tho we’ve heard it said that they bored him. Pat is a busi- ness success, and looks with favor upon the commercial world. If he moves to Jackson, as he expects to, he’ll save enough in one year to worthily endow his Alma Mater.
