HASKELL K. BALDWIN, B.S Moscow, Tenn. “Ted”’ like some of our other best fellows, hails from the volunteer state. Although he is not an athlete he has won a place in our hearts that usually takes an athlete to win. He is small in stature only, for it can be said of anything he does that it was a big boy’s job and well done. We can’t say that he is timid but there seems to be something about a girl that worries him. He says that he intends to be an old bachelor but if he does he will have to turn over a new leaf and put a ban on society to make us believe it. Glee Club, ’19-’20; Junior Class Poet, ’18-’19; “Village” cut-up, ’18-’19-’20. Philomathean. ERNEST M. STEWART, B.S Liberty, Miss.

He was commissioned in the Field Artillery. He is one of the best students of his class and a gentle man in every respect.

PUCKETT, B.S Columbus Miss. “Ole Puck” has been with the gang through thick and thin. He was here in the spring of ’18 when the famous “65” went home. More than that, gentlemen, he was here until he got the goat he was after and the “sheep skin” to camouflage it withal. Puckett was one of our class who got along with a small amount of friction. In fact, he got his diploma salted away by Xmas of this past year and went home for a rest until graduation time. He is away now, and we don’t know what all he did take part in; but he was deeply interested in all of the college activities and respected by all who knew him. The w ' orld has now’ to make place for a real business man. Page Twenty -three

EDGAR E. BALLARD, B.A Tupelo, Miss. One chilly September morn in 1917 a terrifhc storm came from the North. The wind blew, the lightning flashed and the rain poured. Finally it ceased. We began to look about and soon discovered that “E-Square” had been caught up by this mighty wind from Mississippi Heights and left in our midst. Hardly had he made his appearance on the campus when he began to take an active part in athletics, a little politics and ’Stute receptions. Ballard is highly esteemed by each one from Dr. Dutchy down to the first year “preps”. Since coming to us he decided to give his life to the ministry. Member Debating Council, President B. Y. P.

S. in ’15, after which he taught for one year; then feeling the call to preach, he came to Mississippi College in ’16. Since that time he has labored, tirelessly, industriously, and earnestly. His kindly word, friendly manner, and studious habits have won for him a place in the hearts of the professors and students alike. He is a man of deeds, and not of words. He is married, and to his wife he owes a great deal of his success. He is pastor of County Line and Morgantown Churches. His faithfulness to duty, untiring efforts, and high and noble ideals insure his success as a minister. Treasurer of B. Y. P. U. Hermenian. Page Twenty-five i
