TftE REVraLDB i CLAY O. BAIRD. Kansas City. Mo. Electrical Engineering. Ex-Captain Company H. Just where Clay hails form is a mystery, but for all practical purposes Kansas City will answer as well as any. Clay does not belong to the National Society of Heart Breakers, but he has a little love spree on just the same, which we hope will terminate successfully for the bride. His chief aim in life is to know all there is to be known about the science of Electrical Engineering, and if his present efforts prevail, he will succeed. We cannot say that he likes to study, but at times he becomes inspired and industriously applies himself for as much as ten minutes without a rest. The art of learning is natural with him, and he is one of our best men. Here ' s to you, Old Boy ; may you not only make a great success in your calling, but also, some day. enjoy All the comforts of a home.

B- KE DILI B- i i JOHN F. ALLEN. Toomsuba. Miss. Agriculture. Second Lieutenant and Quarter-Master First Bat. John has a characteristic way of his own. He is pleasant, generous, and perfectly harmless. He could be a favorite of the ladies, but from the tri- weekly appearance of certain missives from near(?) Meridian, we know there is no chance. This lad is especially opposed to hard study, but he generally lands with the crowd. John expects to re turn to his plantation if the lady is willing.

- ns ggSj JhE- Rbv iixi l is a r CLAUD P. BARRETT, Hesterville. Miss. Industrial Education. First Lieutenant Company I. Pedagogue entered school ' in 1906, and since that time he has spent a few years out in the world. He joined us in the Junior year and since then, with his serious though pleasant mien and philosophic jokes, he has won the love of all his classmates. C. P. is a most diligent and painstaking student — he is an example of what can evolve by determination and untiring effort. This subject has been known to ad- mire one Normalite, but as yet, his heart is obviously unentangled. The gravest charge that we have ' against Pedagogue is his sonorous nods in the section room. Expects to take charge of an Agri- cultural High School. Y. M. C. A., ' 06- ' 12; Upshaw Medal, ' 09; Philo- technic Literary Society, ' 06- ' 12; Anniversarian, ' 11- ' 12; Class Poet.
