President of the Southern Railway Lines. As a slight memorial of our lasting appreciation of his noble efforts toward the agricultural and economical de- velopment of the South, as a testimony of the loyalty he- has ever commanded from every other native son of Mis- sissippi, and as an unworthy token of our regard for his masterly intellect, his unselfish devotion to his Southland, and his indomitable spirit in her behalf, this the ninth volume of THE REVEILLE is dedicated. .)) J ) , -P IS, flrrsiitntt William Iffltlsmt 3Fitil?g William Wilson Finley, president of the Southern Railway lines, was born at Pass Christian, Miss., September 2, 1853. He served from vice-president ' s stenographer to assistant general freight agent of the New Orleans, Jackson Great Northern and Chicago, St. Louis New Orleans railways from I8?: to 1883. For two years thereafter he was assistant general freight agent of the Texas Pacific Railway, serving them one year in the same capacity during the receivership of that road. After two years as general freight agent of the rehabili- tated line he went to the Fan Handle Route for a year in a similar office. He was then made chairman of the Trans-Missouri Traffic Association, which office he held until 189-2. For three years succeeding he was general traffic manager of the G. N. Montana Central Railroad, leaving to become commissioner of the Southern States Passenger Association. He was chosen third vice-president of the Southern Railway October 1, 189,5, became second vice-president a year later, holding the office for ten years. In December, 1906, be was chosen president, succeeding the late Samuel B. Spencer. Mr. Finley was president also of the Mobile Ohio Railroad, Southern Railway m Mississippi, Alabama Great Southern Railroad, Cincinnati, New Orleans Texas Pacific Railway, Georgia Southern Florida Railway and Northern Alabama Railway. During his incumbency Mr. Finley paid much attention to the agricultural and economi- cal development of the South. He was one of the foremost promoters of industrial develop- ment of his native and surrounding States; in this field be was an influential supporter of the Mississippi Agricultural Mechanical College, since he realized as have few other men of his position the gigantic force for the uplift of the masses t hat this college has and continues to exert. So firmly satisfied of the superior merits of this college was President Finley, that his road now offers two scholarships to students attending this institution. And in 1912 he started the foundation for the Finley Loan Fund, which he suggested should be used to aid poor boys in defraying their expenses while in college. Too, he was a versatile writer and speaker on problems relating to the material advancement of the country traversed by the lines of which he was head. On March 3, L910, the degree of 1.1.. I), was conferred upon Mr. Finley by Tulane Uni- versity, and on June 2, 1910, the same degree was conferred upon him by the State University of Kentucky. He was vice-president and chairman of the executive committee of the Ameri- can Highway Association, which is the clearing house for the good roads movement in the United States. He was one of the founders of the organization and through it aided the road movement throughout the South. On November 25, 1913, in the very prime of life, he died from a sudden stroke of apo- plexy, thus ending the active career of one of the leading figures in movements for the devel- opment of the South and one of Mississippi ' s most illustrious sons.

Henry hails from the piny regions of Mis- sissippi, where, according to his statement, the most charming lassies in this broad land dwell. He has had numerous love affairs, but the one that upset him most was when he was jilted by an old maid. At this late day he has come to realize that his heart was really not broken, but only slightly fractured and the scar has now disappeared. He says that he will never fall in love with another old maid as long as there are lassies at the I. 1. C. We can all see him in the near future as a dignified professor who will awaken Lin- coln County to its great future possibilities in agriculture. We wish him success in all of his undertakings.

Bachelor of Science in Agriculture ' Yon beat your pate and fancy wit will come, Knock as you please, there ' s nobody at home Si came to us last year after having re- ceived his A. B. degree from the University of Mississippi. By diligence and persever- ance he has attained the goal. Having a love for rural life he lias been endeavoring to master the science of agriculture. Si is a very versatile young man, as he is an ac- complished actor, tennis player, and an ex- traordinary wit, which, I might say, is of the sturb cone variety. This he inflicts upon those of his friends who like him most. In contrast to most of the class, lie is a con- firmed woman-hater. His ventures among the fair sex have been limited while here, and we do not know the reason why, but sus- pect that he is a man with a past. Another art lie is proficient in is the driving of a horse with ore hand, and on occasion will demonstrate his prowess in this line. Si, we all join in wishing you the great- est of success and hope to see you one of these days published as a great breeder of live stock.

He lias shown a great (leal of effort in getting an education, which makes us believe that he will succeed at any- thing he tries. He has been a good student, and has made many friends while here. We understand lliat he is going to study law after he graduates. Mississippi Sabres; Dra matic Club; Y. M. C. A.

JAMES LAWRENCE ALLEN Prairie, Miss. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture The end is to hare two made one In will and affection. Jim is a good-natured and intelligent fellow. lie has always been a hard worker, especially in English, and his love for this subject is evidenced by the many weary years he devoted to the mastery of his native tongue. He has been with us for the past four years and he lias always brought up his end of the work. He never fails to perform his chemical lab, for he usually works alone. During the first three years he was with us Jim ' s room was the hanging-out place of all the loafers of the class, especially when they wanted a smoke. His love affairs were many during this linn, and he was ever ready to discuss them, but one day tins past summer all this came to an abrupl end, for he was joined in matrimony to a fair maiden whom we all know verj well, II was with much regrcl thai we losl Jim from our Bachelor Club, but, of course, we ciuld not object when we though! of the prize he was winning.

He did not know where it would lead, but after a hard jour- ney of five long years he has at last reached the much-sought-for goal. He is a man to be depended upon, and is one who never over- looks the little things, but such is natural with him, being first cousin to Mutt. He is a lad who loves to roam; since coming here his Summers have been spent way up North and in the far West; seems as if an un- known voice calls him.

Frivolity and pleasure are things of today; True character the lesl that fadeth not away Red came to us four years ago as a Freshman. Ir is not definitely known how he came to be here, but, just the same, he ' s here and made most of his time. The first day he landed on our campus he gave us the impression of a manly character and a jolly, good-natured fellow; we have not been dis- appointed in him — an ideal scholar. It has been his honor to carry away the Laurels for the highest mark in his section during his entire college career. No one who has met him can say that he •has not enjoyed his congenial smiles and Sage-like expressions. Willie ' s great desire is to become active in the social evolution of Mississippi, believing this to be the potent factor of today. We all join in w ishing him unlimited success. Y. M. C. A.

WILLIAM PATTERSON AMES Clarendon, Va. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture Stiver to prosper than prosperity could litter assured us. Sunshine first visited A. M. during the summer of 1908. After once getting his feet planted on Mississippi soil he was too healthy a specimen to be returned to his home in the Old Dominion State. For two years he strode to and from school in Stark- ville with the campus children. While not a ladies ' man, he has a weakness for higa school girls. It was not long after entering college that he was given the n ame of Sun- shine, which is a very appropriate title. 1 Ic is big all over and has ample foundation to uphold his body. lie likes to go, and enjoys a good time if anybody does. He gives fair play and always impresses one and all with his heartv. wholesoul good nature. Whether to the Philippines, Panama, or what foreign part; whether to batch it, but more likely not, we wisli him our happiest good wishes.

FREDERICK .1. BAKER Jackson, Tenn. School oe Electrical Engineering Fritz hails from the sunny State of Ten- nessee. He docs not fancy active social life and was never known as a follower after the fairer sex, but loves to dream of his future conquests along this line Fred ' s star per- formance comes off at the drawing board, portraying these imaginary queens. His broad smile is his greatest asset, and is ever beaming on friend and foe. His jovial and open-hearted manner lias won him mam friends during his sojourn here. His one se- erel is his middle name, which lie absolutely refuses to reveal, even to his best friends. Baker ' s ambition is to secure an apprentice- ship with the Westinghouse Electric Com- pany, where he may rise to the height of fame in the electrical world. M. A. S. E. ; Cosmopolitan Club. MILSON MONARD BEDENBOUGH Como, Miss. School of Industrial Educatiox His character, of which we can boast, Makes his remembrance dear. Mary is one of our most profound be- lievers and perfect connoisseurs in feminine pulchritude. The frou frou of silk dresses never fails to set off his heart into a palpi- tation, and then later becomes the dope of his fantastical and mystical dreams. How- ever, when he is called a model sport, it is not all said. Indeed Mary is one of our most efficient students in both his academic and military work, and is an ardent sup- porter of the Y. M. C. A. The fact that he was one of the three students selected from the student body to teach at night, warrants this assertion. Perhaps no other student has made a better hit with both faculty and students than he; and we all regard him as one of our number who will reaj) a glorious success, and in time become one of the glow- ing stars in the State of which he is to re- main a part.

Harry, as he is familiarly known, is a person of great distinction, being the only gray-haired man of our number; also, he is the Bell(e) of the class. However he is more prominent in another respect, being one of the best stu- dents of the class. He does not make it a point to ask many questions, but is always there with the goods. Harry has never played an important part in society, but he likes the girls, and has caused much jealousy among many of the fair maidens of Stark- ville. He is especially fond of I. I. C. girls, particularly a certain Corinth maid. We predict for our gray-haired friend a brilliant future in whatever he may under- take, and feel sure that one day Starkville will be proud of him.

His favorite pastime is going to Columbus and working in the electrical lab., where he is quite an authority on electrical machinery. Best has made quite a reputa- tion on the class football team and has made the team for the last four years. Me has successfully completed his regular four-year course on time. He is also excellent in Ihe game of hearts, and is considered by many to be quite a ladies ' man. Sometimes he grows quite despondent when he realizes that only one of his fair admirers can ever hope to secure her heart ' s desire. Best has made a good all-round man since he has been here, and bis comrades and classmates feel sure that whatever vocation he chooses to follow as his lifework he will make a great success. M. A. S.

Flav lias been with us for four long years, and in lh.it time lie has done some good work. He often amuses himself by singing, as lie calls it, but from what the boys say the noise that he makes does not very much resemble singing. He is a great ladies ' man from a distance — or so we can gather from bis conversation when he is feeling real sentimental. Flav is a big mooch for smoking tobacco never being known to loosen up. The class expects great things of Flav and hopes to hear of him putting Smithville on the map some of these days by some start- ling work along agricultural lines.

Allen lias been with us for the past two years and lie certainly has filled a large place in our hearts and in our classes. He is clever and diligent and stands well at the top of his classes. Although he does not make a practice of heart-breaking, we no- tice that he is usually able to hold up his end in anything that he undertakes, and, judg- ing from the volume of his correspondence from down about Hattiesburg, Allen will not long have to endure the loneliness of bachelorhood. Here is to you, Allen. You certainly have the best wishes of your class- mates for a long and successful career. Ye Rounders; Lee Guards; M. A. S. L.

By his pleasing ways he has won many friends during his three years of college life in Company A. To worry he does not know how; he takes things as they come and always gets by with ease. This Newton County product stands well both in his academic and military duties. He did not carry on much heart-smashing in ' Stark- ville society, but we understand he has his future affairs arranged with a certain fair damsel in the vicinity of Newton. We hope some day he may be one of the greatest of our surgeons. Here ' s to you, Ole Boy, May you live as long as you want and have as much as you want as long as you live.

To this we attribute his desire for a good time. He has been a star of the greatest magni- tude in everything that lie has undertaken, and especially lias he made a reputation as a military genius. (?) Doe is a man of varied tastes and ability. He is a good athlete, as well as a great ad- mirer of the fair sex. However, the girl has not as yet arrived upon the scene. Bol- ton ' s good nature and loyalty to his friends have made him one of the niosl popular men in our class. His ambition is to he a great engineer, and it is our most sincere hope that he may succeed. President Gulf Coast Counties ' Club; George Rifles; M. A. S. E.; Y. M. C. A.

This youngster appeared in our Sophomore year. He had tried liis hand at several other colleges out was never satisfied until he found himself drilling in the rear ranks of one of our mili- tary companies. Ted is particularly fond of this place, and would no! go home during the Christmas holidays, hut stayed here to preserve military discipline. One night dur- ing tin ' holidays he had his squad out ma- neuvering among the goats. Someone came upon them, and they tell up here that Ted ran, hut we don ' t believe a word id ' it, though he did have a broken finger the next morn- ing. Though he was far hack in the sticks when we found him we have tamed him to a certain degree, and we are lucky in finding such a man. We hope some day to see him a prosperous lawyer.

HUNTER ROBERTSON BRADLEY Yazoo City, Miss. School of Englneehing. Learned is he that studieth, Bui o ' ertaxeth not Jus endurance. Dopey, a standard antitoxin for pessi- mism, prides himself on being a soldier of the front rank on the military field. During his three years here he has had the honor of being an officer only once, due to the fact that he is inclined to turn a deaf ear to the early morning bugles, and consequently his official career was cut short. The only vul- nerable point in the career of our friend Dopey lies in his tendency to read too much at night. He props his feet upon a table so that his blood will flow to his head, and sits there until the lights go out. Dopey came here in the year 1911 and entered Soph- omore, and has been attending duties at this institution ever since. We feel sure that this institution will not regret having enrolled him as a student, but will be proud of the fact that it has fitted another strong shoul- der to be placed against the wheel of com- petition.

Bob, as be is known by bis classmates, joined us at the beginning of our Sophomore year and since that time has proven himself an excellent student. He is a great lover of the fair sex although he never lets society in- terfere with his work, specially his military duties. Though he has never attained bis military desire (Second Lieutenant) at col- lege, he intends to continue his military ca- reer in another environment in the near fu- ture. As an entomologist he has won many laurels. We know Bob will make a suc- cess at anything he undertakes, but he will never he satisfied until he is displaying some of his knowledge of agriculture on a farm located near Nashville, Tenn.

JAMES NEAL BRIEN Vieksburg, Miss. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture Sweet are the uses of adversity Which, like Military, ugly and venomous, Yet wears t precious jewel in its head. Smiley lias many characteristics not possessed by others. He takes great delight in giving an extra military course to those who prepare themselves to take specials in that department. At times he is as calm as an inland lake when a storm is raging, and again he is ruffled by zephyrs that blow from the northeast. He is a profes- sional courtier, but Popularity has been will- fully neglected because of rivalry between her and certain members of a fairer sex. He not only spends much of his time in the performance of his duties as an officer and in holding a position in the front rank of his class in academic work, but somehow he finds time to write letters that require extra postage.

CHARMS SHINAULT BROOKS, Myrtle, Miss. School of Textile Engineering, Mm Ihf happiest moments of your past, Be the saddest moments of your future. Sunny is a product of Union County, and resides in the city of Myrtle. He joined our class in the year of 1910, and has been a loyal member since. Charlie wears an everlasting smile, and on only one occasion did it fade, No Colonel! No Sir, I wasn ' t asleep; that quilt just happened to he on my trunk. No Sir, Honest, I Wasn ' t. Sunny is well known by the fair of Stark- ville, though we can ' t say that he specialized on any one of the above named city. It may he interesting to state that he spends some of his time addressing letters to Co- lumbus. In academic and military work he spends most of his leisure time, never fail- ing to utilize every moment, altho at times he has to resort to the dreams of the future better still Futuress. May his life be as bright as his nickname implies, and when we next see him we hope to find success in- terwoven into his name.

Bachelor of Science in Agriculture Silence tl the proper time is wisdom, and better than any speech. Gus hails from the metropolis city, which has furnished so many good men to the A. M. College. He has been here since 1910 and we find him up to the standard in everything. His genial smile has won for him many friends while here. Gus is not a ladies ' man, yet he is not blind to the charms of the fair sex. This was shown by a little episode which happened during bis Junior year, which caused him a heartache or two. Dairying is his special work, and we think he is proficient enough to take charge of some dairy establishment in the Philippine Islands. We feel sure that he will succeed in his chosen profession for he is very fond of animals, especially goats and horses. May he live long to en- joy the success that is sure to come to one with as much ability as he. President Lauderdale County Club; Agri- cultural Club; Junior Basket Ball Team, 1911-1912; Y. M. C.

Bachelor of Science in Agriculture By the poise of his head he commands at- tention. George Washington came to us from the tall pines of Pike County four years ago. He resembles liis niumsake in many respects, and when the final roll is called the two Georges will head the list. George W. has dabbled in society to some extent since he has been among us. He has a sister in Columbus, and makes fre- quent trips over there to see her. During the last summer lie was quite a social fa- vorite in Starkville until one Sunday night at 3 a. m. something happened that caused him to again make Columbus his hat resting station. George is a pioneer leader of the Double H Club and also Chairman of the Starkville Flirt Reform Committee.

ROLAND EDWARD BUSBY, Vinegar Bend, Ala. School of Civil Engineering He lias a heart with room fur every joy. Roland or Skinny drifted into our midsl as a modest Freshman, and for the past four years has endeavored to get everything possible out of college life, or to be more exact, to get everything that is not ob- tained in the class room and books. He has taken part in everything from leading prayer meeting to side show dancing; how- ever, we feel sure that his motto has been Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow you may die. As a man of military ability Skinny rivals Napoleon, and his famous Pole cats will forever live in the annals of A. fie M. history. Too, Roland has won much fame as a social leader, and as an admirer of the fair sex, it is only necessary that his time is equally divided between eat- ing, sleeping, upholding prohibition, and Starkville society. Roland, old boy, may Dame Fortune ever smile upon you, but never her daughter miss-fortune. George Rifles (resigned); Wayne County Club; Lee Guards; M. A. S.

School of Electrical Engineering There are some silent people ' who are more interesting than the best talkers. This quiet and exceedingly modest young fellow came to A. M. from the cosmopoli- tan little city of Sessums, Miss., in Fhe Fall of 1910. Lie is known as Bill among his classmates, and his easy going and affable manner has won him many friends. Efficiency and thoroughness are predominant char- acteristics of his class room work. Although lie has never been an enthusiast of athletics or society yet he believes in them when em- ployed in moderation. That treacherous little fellow, Cupid, has never been able to claim him as inn- of his victims; however, we are informed that he came very near falling from grace on one occasion, the mention of which in his presence accentuates the nat- urally ms hue of his plump cheeks. Bill procures his degree in E.E. this year, and it is his ambition to employ his E.E. skill in the construction and operation of the Ses- sums Railroad, Light and Power Company. We feel quite confident that this ambition will be realized in the years to come. Bill is well equipped to enter the battle of life, and we feel certain thai he will emerge from it the winner of main victories. M.A.S.E.; Oktibbeha County Club; V. M. C.

Bachelor of Science in Agriculture Women ' s looks his only books .lint follies all thiii taught him. . lawn ' s career at this institution began when man ' s mind runneth not to the con- trary. After much toil he graduated from the Engineering Department in 1912, but the following September he entered the Agri- cultural Department. After being in class with him for two years we can see that he is well adapted for this line of work. Jawn ' s -mind wanders at times, or is it his heart:- Although he has never shown violent symptoms all that is necessary is the time, the place, and the girl. On one bright day in November he packed his grip and combed his little mustache and sallied forth to conquer the Mills of .Mississippi. Al- though he has never told us of his con- quests, vet he has said nothing of defeat. When he has nothing else to do he studies agriculture, and in the future we expect to hear of great things accomplished by him at Areola.

His heart is one of those which most enamours us, Wax to receive and marble to retain. Pee Wee, the unsophisticated essence of pure runti tidiness that we all know him to be, hails from our sister city Sessums. He is of noble character, honest and upright in all things, and having on the whole a rather studious nature: Through four years of strenuous toil he has never given up or said I can ' t, but has always held his own and we all feel sure that the future has many good things in store for him. His main view in life is to have a large farm all his own, and find the one needed to help him run it. Pee Wee has many friends at the college and in Starkville. May he live up to the standard he has set, and ever he prosperous, is the sincere wish of his classmates. George Rifles; Ye Runts; Town Preps Football Team; Y. M. C.

School of Electrical Engixeeuixo And I pray yon lei none of your people stir me ; I hare an exposition of sleep come upon me. Jim has had military aspiration, and it has been rumored that he came once near being Lieutenant-Colonel, that is he applied for the job, but alas! the wheel of fortune turns in more than one direction. However, he has outgrown this tendency and shows a marked aversion to all things military; es- pecially reveille and inspections. There are few students in the class who are more hospitable or generous and very few who can excel him in commercial and political ability, but his chief and most marked char- acteristic is his ability to create fiction rela- tive to his adventures in the far West. Jim has a very distinguished bearing, and when in Citz is frequently taken, by visit- ors on the campus, for one of the professors. His work in the class room and laboratory is a source of wonder to Prof. Reid and his classmates. We think that Jim aspires to the commercial end of his chosen profession, and no doubt he has chosen wisely, for his greatest capability seems to lie along this line, and the valuable training he has pre- viously received ought to enable him to monopolize and dominate the electrical in- dustry in a very few years after graduation.

Jodie is a worker with all that the term implies, and is especially noted for punctu- ality and accuracy in his work. Though he came to us in our Sophomore year, yet lie soon climbed to an equal standing with the very best in his class. During his college life he has given his entire time to getting an education, and success has been his re- ward. His deportment as a student has been perfect, he being one of the extremely few who never received a single demerit of rep- rimand, nor never failed on a single sub- ject throughout his college career. Jodie has made considerable progress in the poetic field, and lias written sonic striking poems on love, and the maidens fair. Morally, he believes in the clean, square thing and his belief is shown in his daily conduct. He has a kind disposition but a stern determina- tion for success which allows no time for folly.

He was originally from Pocahontas, Miss. We find in Tip an all-round college man. He is well-known by both faculty and student body, and his pleasant disposition has won for him many friends in both of these bodies. He has always taken an active part in al- most all of the student activities, from the Glee Club on down — or up.; and has made for himself a splendid record on the athletic field — having played Varsity baseball and football. His favorite Hobby is sing- ing in the Glee Club (?), and his favorite pastime is skinning cats on the horizontal bar and catching on his nose. Ladies ' man? — well, I should say yes. He says he is going to get married if he can invent some way by which to choose a wife from his long list of maiden admirers. He expects to become a banker, and we wish for him a successful and happy career.

Wee Wilhnn, though quiet and unobtrusive by nature, needs hut to be met to be liked and respected. He is an excellent student, preferring a studious life rather than putting much time on the athletic field. If persistence is laudable, this stately, curly-haired youth certainly de- serves much praise. Jason was never more persistent or untiring in his pursuit of the golden fleece than Will has proven himself in the quest of a much coveted sheepskin. His knowledge is even as that of the Sphinx which saith nothing lint keeps its wisdom unto itself. We believe that his self-con- fidence and untiring energy will hasten his rise to a prominent place among the great, and his friends will watch with interest his progress in the coming great battle of life.

He was selected two successive years to repre- sent us in our triangular debate, and was successful both times. He is not altogether a ladies ' man, but often refers to a certain girl at home as Mrs. Cockerham!

Judging from his slender, tapering fingers, long black hair and melancholy midnight eyes one would think that he was a musician, but as yet he has only played upon the hearts of the young ladies of Starkville and the surrounding district. He is a great athlete, excelling in baseball, football and basket pall. His favorite position on th e baseball team is catcher where he has served in many a game. lie plays at quarter on the class football team, and it is a wonder how such a small man can make such gains. But his greatest achievement is his walking; for after four years ' practice, morning and night, he has become an expert. Ask Prof. Gay what Critz can remember. He will answer, He has never remembered anything since his Freshman year. But it is predicted by some that if you will give him a few minutes to think he will remember to change his uni- form for Critz when he gets his Dip. Captain Town Prep.

His motto is to get it done, but be sure you don ' t hurt yourself at any one thing.

Tom is the best kind of student, never speaking unless called upon, and thereby does not display his ignorance more than necessary. He is especially interested in the raising of stock and intends to have one of the best stock farms in Mississippi.

JOSEPH CARROLL HAYNIE, Columbus, Miss. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture How beautiful a thing is Fidelity. Joseph Carroll, called for short, Bub, has indeed been faithful. For three years he has remained unharmed by the soft glances and the bewitching smiles of the damsels of Starkville, a failure due, we think, to his having received from Columbus a Good Fellowship book with marked passages. Bub has also been very faithful to a resolution that he made since entering col- lege — a resolution never to stay up later than 9:30 p. m. If by any chance he is enticed away and unwittingly leaves his watch, the moment he hears the tattoo bugle, he flees in alarm, determined not to dissipate. Never- theless, he is never behind in his studies nor in his extras. Bub has been a good student and beloved fellow the three years he has been with us, and we doubt not, that, if he devotes as much study and time to the problems of his vocation as he has to the aforementioned book, he will be eminently successful.

School of Electrical Engineering Speech is great, but silence is greater. Joseph, better known as Joe, hails from Monroe County. He came to us in 1910, and has been an honest, studious fellow during his sla wilh us. His specialty seems to be Meditation, and anyone seeing him in Ihis mood would think thai he was deeply in love, bul he says thai Cupid never has Pestered his heart. Otherwise he is of a generous nature, pleasant, and of agreeable manners, and has won numerous friends while in college. His aim is to become a great commercial man for one of the big electrical companies, but upon being a military genius he is likely to substitute his favorite pas- time, Military. We feel sure, in what- ever profession he chooses, that bis career in the business world w ill be one long series of successes. Monroe County Club; Y. M . C. A.; M . A. S. E.; Mississippi Sabres. JOSEPH GUY HESTER, Mathiston, Miss. Bachelor of Science ix Agriculture A noble fellow. fnujal. i ooil im iintl. industrious one. Guy, the Bug Specialist, as he is known bv all of his friends, is a philosophical fel- low, lie would not give his opinion for anyone ' s. He entered college five years ago as a prep, and with a determination to pre- pare himself in some branch of agriculture. At the end of his Junior year he began work in the zoological laboratory with the pur- pose in view of learning something of the science of bugs. Here he has by honesty and close application to work won the re- spect and admiration of all his fellow work- ers, lie expects to go Into government work in his chosen line, and if his efforts arc half rewarded he will some day become a leader. We all join in wishing Guy abundant success in life. President Choctaw County Club; Y. M. C. A.; Private Company A. CLAUDE HILTON HEY, Philipp, Miss.

He, on ac- count of his bad health, has had an up-hill fight; this, coupled with his admiration of the fair sex, may account for his trips home, which occur at such frequent intervals. He is an ardent admirer of the science of Electrical Engineering and having had con- siderable work in this line previous to com- ing to this institution, has made one of our head-of-the-class men. Aside from this great undertaking our esteemed mem- ber is very proficient in the art of music, holding the high place of first clarinet in our band. With all these accomplishments, we may safely predict a great future for one Duck. George Rifles; German Club; M. A. S. E.; Runts Club. CHARLES RUSSELL HINTON, Flora, Miss. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture Few sorrows hath he of his own. in Lucy we have the reincarnation of the military soul of Xapoleon. Since his en- trance he has pursued a rank with unflagging zeal and moderate success. He has the enviable record of never having missed a military formation of any kind (?). Any of his friends, who are many, will vouch for the veracity of this statement. It is true, that being reported three months after his first entrance, by the Lieutenant Colonel, he was forced to inquire the name of said of- ficer, but this was an excusable oversight and, since then, such has been his interest in military, that he not only keeps up win) the Lieutenant Colonels, but even with the Majors. Aside from military pursuits he has spent his time in earnest, purposeful endeavor to broaden and perfect himself in his chosen profession. His character and ability make his success in life certain.

School or Electrical Engineering A man in whom I put an infinite trust. Everett joined us during our Sophomore year, and from his firsl appearance has been recognized as one of our best students. Whether or not he was named for Edison has not been determined, Init it is true that they have like characteristics, and we feel sure that he will live up t his middle name and his E.E. (Electrical Engineer initials.) Everett has not made his debut into Stark- ville society, hut he talks often of his fu- ture home, and it is generally believed that the ideal of his dreams resides in Macon.

The subject of this sketch joined us in our Freshman year. He is a native of the land of flowers, hut coining to Mississippi in early boyhood now has the characteristics of a native Mississippian. Jake is a very consistent student, but fouls an almost un- conquerable Jonah in mathematics. For military fame he has no desire, hut often uses the expression Darn the military. As a classmate he is esteemed by all and it can be freely and truthfully said that he is a splendid type of a Pedagogue. His out- standing feature while in college has been along literary lines, debating a specialty, oratorical display for rarity. Jake ' s sole ambition is to become a lawyer, and we venture to say that he in time will become famous in the political realm.

That he takes things easy we must agr ee, But just before exams he ' s is studious as can be. This remarkable youth, popularly known as Shi, admits that Grenada should be credited with his origin. He is a dreamer — even in the daytime; and his ethereal fancies concerning- his future attainments in ag- ricultural projects, and the successful con- quest of the heart of the damsel of his desires, he declares will some day be a charming reality. Our personal knowledge of Shi convinces us that he usually ac- complishes that upon which he sets his mind. As a musician he has shown rare aptitude; his favorite selection is entitled, Please Go Way and Let Ale Sleep. (It is rumored that he once sang this song to the Colonel.) One of his musical creations is Jones ' Or- chestra, the fame of which is widespread. He has the profoundest love for Botany and allied subjects (:■) and while he has been contented in viewing them at a distance in the past, he is seriously considering the perusal of at least one book before June.

If you toot not your own horn, the same shall not be tooted. John D. joined our class in the fall of 1910. He hails from Tennessee and is ever ready to sing the praises of his State. He is an ardent believer in the above quota- tion and he never misses a chance to put it into practice. Jack is a good student, although there is nothing that he hates much worse than study. King is a great admirer of the fair sex, and is ever ready to relate his conquests among them. Jack ' s easy- going manner has won him many friends. He has the honor of being one of the most conceited men in school, but if you have ever formed that opinion, you change it after you know him awhile. He is of a jolly disposition and can seldom be found in any mood other than a friendly one. He always sees the humorous side of things, no matter in what kind of a predicament he or the other fellow might lie. King will get his degree in Mechanical Engineering in June, and after graduation he will prob- ably follow some branch of that vocation. M. A. S. E. HARRY COOPER KINNEY. Vicksburg, Miss.

This remarkable assemblage of human qualities hails from beside The Father of Waters, and we are prone to believe he has received a tremendous inspiration from the mighty stream, evidenced by his multifold activities. hasily a star in basket ball, an excellent quarterback, a hard-hitting sec- ond baseman, one of the best actors in the Dra- matic Club, an able editor of The Reflector, losing the Magruder medal by only one point ; he is the broadest man in the class. As a friend he is without a peer, willing to go to the last ditch with those fortunate enough to have him call them such. He has overcome many difficulties to re- main in A. ■ M., but in doing so has given fur- ther evidence of his sterling worth. Kinney has the ability to think things out, and the fearless- ness to carry them through, tempered always with a fine, true honor, unwavering loyalty, and the indomitable pluckiness and generosity of a true man.

Where John ' s home is has been a source of mystery to all the boys, but it lias at last leaked out that he is from Love, and is one of the products of Dan Cupid. Strange to say, he is not known as an adept in the aid of love-making; however, lie is the recipient of many large, bulky packages, marked Postage due, and it is noticed that be lias a bright smile for every- one, after having received one of these. John entered the college in 1909 as a Prep and has been with the class through all of its various experiences. He is a quiet, in- dustrious student, and has always been found on the right side of examinations. His heart is buried in the mysteries of electricity and the practice of Military science. It is said that he is happiest when drilling a company in military tactics. His motto is thoroughness in everything, and he is ex- pected to make a mark in his chosen pro- fession. M. A. S. E.; Y. M.

Of ■• ml sincere, In action faithful, and in honor clear. The subject of this sketch comes to us from the red Kills of Lee County. He began his career as a student at A. M. four long years ago. He is a boy that is liked by everyone, and has made for him- self a reputation that will be remembered by all for many years to come. He is gen- erous, modest, and at times was known to be very studious. Red, as he is known, is a boy that can be depended upon to do his part in anything that comes before him. It has been hinted that he is in love, but no one knows except the little brown-eyed girl back in Saltillo. Here is luck to you old boy, in your chosen profession, an3 as a lover.

He says that Cupid has never entered his heart, but he is al- ways on the alert for a good cook. His greatest desire is to become the chief en- gineer in putting a tunnel through the Rock- ies.

Magnificent spectacle of human happiness. Bill drifted into our realm of knowl- edge in 1909, being out one year since then. During his career at college his cheerful smile has won him many friends. His fa- vorite pastime is prepping, though when seen in Co. B. he always has a bodyguard of Polecats. Bill is an ardent lover of military ( ' ■) and discipline is his motto. As a student he ranks high, being always able to convince the profs of his knowledge, whether he knows anything or not. As a commercial retailer he ranks second to none, and many think that he is imbued with some of the qualities of the children of Israel. Bill has taken agronomy as his special work, and in the years to come we hope to find him among the honored agronomists.

School of Civil Engineering Tell him of Jacob ' s ladder and he Would ask the number of steps. Bill began his career at the Institution in 1911 as a Sophomore. All along he has shown his ability to solve the problems that will confront him in his profession. It was in integral calculus that he won his fame as a mathematician. He has also won quite a little fame as a military man. During his first year he received the highest rank that could be given a Sophomore, and now has reached the distinguished promotion of First Lieutenant. Bill does not halt at being a mathematician and military genius, he is also somewhat of a ladies ' man, but we will have to admit that it is a certain maiden in Moorhead who gets almost his entire atten- tion. We are more than confident of his success in the future, and will always be proud of him as a fellow-student. M. A. S. E.; Secretary and Treasurer Lee County Club; Y. M. C.

Rhine, though small of statue, is formidable enough in other respects. He came to us as a Freshman and has been a loyal member of the Class ' 14. ever since. Rhine drilled with us the first year, but when he returned as a Sophomore he de- serted the ranks and joined the band, owing to his great love for military or his laziness. Since then he has tooted his own horn. He is best known to the student body as W. R. Lominick, Photographer, 18 Band Hall. He has seldom been associated with social affairs while in college. Although he is one of our youngest stu- dents he is one of the best and has always stood well in the class. Still he is not satis- fied with his knowledge of scientific agri- culture as he expects to be able to write more than a B.S. after his name in a few years.

The common say- ing- that red hair is a sign of a high temper cannot lie applied to Mc for we have never seen him in an ugly mood. He is a friend to everyone and liked by all, both students and professors. He has become renowned for his ads for the picture show and his ability at lettering. By the twinkle in his eyes and the beaming smile on his face, you would think that he had been up to some mischief, but as a rule Mc is quiet, and very seldom up to any tricks.

His time has not all been devoted to academic work, as he has been an active worker in the Y. M. C. A., both as a member and as a teacher. Dr. hails from Sunflower County, and he for one is proud of the fact, and he intends to return there and invest his talents in the upbuilding of her soil. He is a specialized ladies ' man and boasts of the fact that he has not as yet met with any serious catastro- phe in dealing with the fair sex. He speaks often of the ideal woman on the ideal plan- tation. His favorite game is wink, but when it comes to something more substantial he says to his county club, To town for sup- per. We predict a great change in Joe ' s life in the near future, as the letters from I. I. C. and Hillman are becoming more frequent. Ask him who is in the lead.

He thinks himself a great singer but misappropriation of his voice; doubtless its sympathetic (?) qualities would prove wonderfully effective in calling stock, but in the Glee Club it only calls for superannuated grits and prunes. He scorns a strenuous life; loves peace and quietude. He is of an amorous nature, not easily angered, but once angered, woe be unto the offender who incurs bis wrath. Some think him indifferent, lint to those who know him best he is a warm and confidential friend. Withal, he is an earnest and diligent student, and is generous to a fault.

Bachelor of Science in Agriculture With heaviness he casts his eyes Upon the roads before. And still remembers with a sigh The days that are no more. Joe came to us four years ago from Hinds County. He at once set out to master the science of agriculture, and, being veTy energetic and sagacious, has found but little trouble in accomplishing this task. Wise minds runneth in the same channel. Joe has been a warm advocate of the science of Bugology, as is shown by the large amount of work he has done in this line. Joe has been very successful in Starkville society. After being jilted by one or more of its belles, he was cast out in the never-fading darkness. Joe expects to return to his farm near Jackson and devote his time and knowledge of scientific agriculture to the upbuilding of that community, especially in the live stock industry.

Happy blew in during a great cyclone that picked him up near Morton. He has been one of the hardest workers of his class since he first entered. His hardest task has been solving problems in mathematics, and no doubt lie and Prof. Stark formed a very close acquaintance during his mathematical career. Happy says The women won ' t do, but we think he will make an ideal hus- band. He left us during the early part of 191;?, but being determined to become an ag- riculturist and stock farmer, he returned this year to accomplish the desired goal. At the close of this year he will return to his old home farm and make stock farming his life work. Happy ' s stature is as short as his name, but in spite of all this we feel sure that he will succeed in his chosen profession, for he has proven that he can tell a mule from a horse when the mule has had a recent haircut.

It is his delight to indulge in the most amusing art of flirtation. Although his list of cor- respondents is long, it seems from external appearance that Cupid has inclined his heart toward a certain school girl in Alabama. As an athlete Buster has attained to con- siderable fame, having played a brilliant part in the class football games. His end runs were paralyzing to the opposing teams, and his line bucking above the average. His fa- vorite diversions are photography and dan- cing. Buster is an excellent student and an all-round good fellow. He never worries. His favorite study is Entomology.

Jodie, or better known as Irish, came to us in 1909 and is one of the very few preps, that had the courage and grit to stick it out through thick and thin. By his gentle dispo- sition and loving ways he has made many friends in his class and the student body and has succeeded in keeping them. He is a great ladies ' man, military genius and agricultural student combined. He did not make his debut in Starkville society until his Junior year, but since that time few are his equal and he is excelled by none. At Columbus he is noth- ing short of a heart-smasher. In class foot- ball he has won a reputation that will be long remembered by his classmates. His greatest ambition is to own a large plantation and a modern dairy.

During his college career he has been very fond of athletics, but, best of all, he believes that the mental faculties should be trained first, and he has conclusively proved this to his classmates by his wide knowledge of agri- cultural subjects. His chief desire is to learn all there is to know about Bugs, and if his present efforts prevail we are sure that he will succeed ( ?). He has always enjoyed mil- itary, but for some unknown reason he has remained a private during his four years. So- ciety has never entered his mind, but we are sure he is in love, because his stationery bills are fierce. When June arrives we lose him, but his memory is with us forever.

School of Electri Engineer.] no Here we present a man of many talents, and what is more, he is good at anything he undertakes. He has a decided talent for drawing, is an excellent musician, and is one who believes in Tooting his own horn. Lefty is an ardent believer in exercise, and to this may be attributed his frequent visits to Starkville (he does this, of course, for ex- ercise). Up to a few months past we who knew him believed that his heart was dormant when Cupid came around, but we now realize our mistake. In the abridged words of Caesar. He came, he saw, he (was) con- quered. He will be long remembered by the dancing element especially for the excellent music he has furnished for many occasions. He is a jolly fellow with a pleasant smile and word for everyone, and has gained many friends here. He is a good student and when he starts at a task he believes in finishing it up right. We believe that he will make good in whatever he undertakes in after life, and he carries with him the good will and wishes of Class 1914.

MOORE, Hermanville, Miss. Bachelor op Science ix Agriculture There is no art to show the mind ' s run- ttruction in Hie face. Jew is one of the few members of our class who began his career as a prep. He was formerly a native of Louisiana and you would hardly think that State capable of pro- ducing such a military genius. He is a great believer in the pigskin game and other athletics. His voice can always be heard among the rooters on the side line. He in- tends to go hack to his farm, and often talks about the beautiful country home of which he will same day be proprietor. His many friends are sure that if it requires courage and energy to win, Jew will surely succeed at whatever he attempts. Private Company G. HENRY HUFFMAN NAFF, Bastrop, La. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture .Hi, well! for us all some street hope lies Deeply buried from human eyes. Henry Huffman, better known by the higher critics as Watso, joined our class at the beginning of our Sophomore year. Al- though he is nol a Mississippian, lie is a near relative, and has some interest in this State, but will not tell who she is for fear of get- ting in trouble in his native State. Watso is a jolly good fellow and is also a good student most of the time. Provided he does not turn out to lie a singing master, or go with a vaudeville troupe, presenting a Burlesque on Guard Mount, we feel sure that lie will do some great work along agri- cultural lines. His sole ambition is to spend a few years in some foreign country and to startle the world with his knowledge of Eco- nomic Entomology. George Rifles!

Bachelor of Science in Agriculture I hate nobody; I am in charity with the world. Here is a man of whom it may truly be said, None hut himself can he his parallel. Prep is a specialized ladies ' man, confining his activities to hut one, and makes numerous trips to Jackson, Miss. Always merry and with a smile for everyone, and in for any fun that comes along, Pre]) has made many friends during his college life. Everyone knows that hearty laugh of his, and especially his gift of being able to sneeze loudly and long whenever an opportunity presents itself. When it comes to work. Pre]) can always he depended upon to do his part. He is a conscientious student and is well versed in his chosen subject. He expects to have an ideal farm near Clinton, and we believe that if hard work and sticktoitivencss merit success, Prep is going to make his mark. The best wishes of his classmates and friends follow him in his future career.

This is the likeness of everybody ' s friend, for whom Grenada County is responsible. Ike came to us as a prep. and since that time has won a host of friends. He is fond of military, games and other amusements, especially dancing, at which he is an adept. No one has ever thought him exceedingly good looking, but still he has had experi- ences in love, one of which caused him some gloominess. The other, however, we are glad to say, was different, and even now his face brightens when we mention I. I. C. At spare moments he has acquired some valuable knowledge of scientific agriculture, and has always stood well in class work. He will return in June to his farm, where he will devote his time to the breeding of reg- istered live stock. In all that he undertakes we wish him the success that skill and deter- mination are sure to bring.

RAYMOND OWEN, Starkville, Miss. School oi Civil Engineering His head aglow, his head I know Has long been wrapped in ealico. Raymond, better known as Red, is one of the illustrious Town Preps. He is not only a town prep., but an inveterate prep., and is guaranteed to raise a rough house on shorter notice than any other man in class. His military stunt is great, he walks over the campus with an air of supreme impor- tance. From his mocking-bird mouth one would think him a great singer, but no, it is only cut for arguing; he would rather argue than eat. Hard to believe, but nevertheless true. Red ' s enthusiasm runs away with him over anything that resembles athletics. He, though only at odd times, has helped in his father ' s railroad office and aspires some day to be president of the M. O. Railroad. Withal, he is whole-souled and generous and a good student, always on time at classes. Town Prep. Football. WILLIAM D. PARKER, Crystal Springs, Miss.

He is a strong advocate of the Epicurean theory, Sleep and eat today, for tomorrow you may die. He is a genuine lover of fun and is ever reads to lend his aid in any mischievous undertaking. His greatest fault is looking most intelligent when he knows absolutely nothing. He studies consistently when not attending ba-kel ball practice, prayer meet- ing, dramatic club rehearsal or writing let- ters and going to I. 1. C. He is especially fond of mathematics, as is evidenced by the many examinations he has taken in this sub- ject. His plans tor the future have not been announced, but judging from the interest he has taken in bees, we feel sure that he will one day have an extensive apiary in South Mississippi.

One September morn, three years ago, a green, thoroughly seared prep, made his first appearance upon our enlightening campus — and lo ! we had in our midst Oscar Patter- son of Pike County. Since that time, how- ever, a change has occurred — he is now from MoComb. Despite this small defect, Pat- terson is a well-rounded man. He ranks high- est among those who labor for the spiritual uplift of the college; his class work is unex- celled; he lias made good in class athletics, in oratory he won the highest distinction within the gift ot the college; in him, too, it seems that Dan Cupid has at last met a worthy foe; Pat has not entirely ignored Cupid ' s darts, but the way he has regulated them, selecting a few and rejecting many, sends terror to the heart of the little Archer. Steve ' ' is an energetic worker, a worthy but determined foe, and an optimist of the high- est order. President Y. M. C. A.; Winner Alumni Debate, 1913; M. I. O.

His early life was spent fighting the mosquitoes of the Mississippi Delta. This did not ruin his dis- position, however, as it is not at all in keeping with his name (Red Pepper). His time has been well taken up with his studies, as he has finished the course in three years. He has found time for athletics, however, and has represented his Alma Mater on the track team for three years. His ambition is to se- cure a position where he will have a great deal of time to devote to his favorite sport — fishing. He is very fond of this pastime, as it requires very little exertion. We predict for him a bright future, as a man with such a sunny smile and genial disposition cannot help but succeed. M. A. S.

He is one of the youngest of the class, as well as one of the most efficient in classroom work. English is his favorite study and reading is his pas- time. Sid is a quiet fellow, but his ever good nature iias won him many friends. He cares little for society and the fair ones of Starkville, but often speaks of a little maiden of Water Valley. He expects to enter Cor- nell University next fall and some day get his Doctor ' s degree in Agronomy. Sid is well versed in agriculture and likes to talk of his future in the agricultural world. His greatest desire is to be Secretary of Agri- culture. That ' s right, Old Boy, aim high, and may you always hit the mark. Private Company I; Town Preps.; Town Preps. Football; Town Preps.

While he could not be correctly classed as a ladies ' man, still we are informed that he can hold Pus own — even among- several hundred telephone girls.

CARLEY CALVIN PITTMAN, Tylertown, Miss. School of Industrial Education Him yon will find in letters, And in laws mil unexpert. The subject of this sketch proudly claims Pike as the place of his nativity. It was as a freshman that Pitt joined the class of 1914. Since then he has proven a true dis- ciple of Prof. Brunson. C. C. has taken considerable interest in various phases of col- lege activity, but academic work always comes first with him. He is intensely inter- ested in educational work, and will probably devote his life to the laudable profession. He often speaks of some day teaching that rural school in the rural districts, where the mock- ing bird sings all the day long and where the flowers grow, bloom and fade away. He has the energy as well as the caliber for good work, consequently we would not be surprised to some day hear of his being in the ranks of the foremost educators of the State. So here ' s to you, C. C, the wishes of all. Y. M. C.

HIRAM RANEY, Yimville, Miss. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture Many men of genius must ari.se before a particular man of genius may appear. Stumpy claims to hail from the city of Meridian, but it is generally known that he comes from the suburban village of Vimville. We believe that it is due to a certain young maiden of that tow n that .Stumpy takes no more than a passing interest in the Stark- viile girls, though he seems to be a great admirer of them from a distance. The date of Stumpy ' s entrance into this institution of learning date, back into antiquity, yet all of this time has not been spent in study. There is no telling what he might have done for the science of agriculture had he steered clear of the fatherly advice of Musgrave or the friendly advances of Bullv Moore. But surely the eye of time holds no name So blest as thine in all the roll of fame, Either as a sergeant in the Army or as a Dairyman. Of the two evils, we hope he will choose the latter and go back to Vimville and establish a certified dairy. Agricultural Club; Y. M. C. A.; Masonic Club; Lauderdale County Club; Private Company H. MILTON DAILY REED, M aben, Miss. Bachelor op Science ix Agriculture The poet at sunset sees Fair maidens under sycamore trees. Milton, the Poet, is never idle. If not preparing his theoretical work, lie is engaged in some practical mischief, generally the latter. The Poet is very consistent in his military duties. In fact, lie is so fond of discipline that rather than get stuck, will occasionally secure a permit, thereby immun- izing himself from the effect of duties. Mil- ton ' s highest ambition is to settle down on some good farm and bring out all there is in the science of agriculture. He says that it will be very lonely for a while, lint for only a short time. Milton entered college in 1908, ami with the exception of one year since then has been a faithful student all along. We are sure that if he will put the same energv into his future occupation as he has done here, his life work will be successful.

Xo doubt that spark of military spirit was kindled away hack yonder at the beginning of his college career, when he enlisted with the J. C.

Notwithstanding his late start with the class, Fred has shown that In ' is always ready to deliver the goods and has always been well up with his work.

Although quiet, we should remember that The still water runs deep. Bugology is his specialty and we feel sure that some position is awaiting him because of his endurance and pride in the work.

He is quite an admirer of the ladies, especially show girls, and is peeved if he fails to receive his tri-weekly missive from the girl I left behind me. Though Ethel is not a bookworm, he is a good fellow, and is popular with both faculty and students.

With his everlasting smile and sincere re- spect for everyone, he has won many friends. In military he did not care which way the wind blew. In society he was on the spot, and in academic work he was never found lacking. His chief pastime during leisure hours is composing lyrics and ballads to a certain individual who is more than a friend. Jed has a habit of sleeping late every morning, but never too sleepy to say, Yes, sir. Colonel! I am getting up.

Joe Lea came along in time to meet us in our Sophomore year and since has proved a valuable addition to the class. He has never known the position of a high-ranking officer in fact, but from one standpoint — as a pri- vate sees it. His time was spent with the academic work and we can all assure him lit- is greatly benefited by it. Frequently he is seen reading letters from Memphis, and this perhaps accounts for his non-appearance in Starkville society, lie says that in the near future the postage will be saved at each end and the ••line will become a single point. Joe Lea has made many friends during his college career, and we all wish him well in his journey through life. M. I. O. A.

School of Civil Engineering Ready to meet yon face to face, At any time, at any place. Bob was sent from the little hamlet of Como to A. M. to become a civil engineer. He entered the class as a Sophomore, and since then he has studied hard to become an engineer of which his native folk may be proud. From the very first he has taken a part in football, and this year made his reputation as one of the best Varsity men. Bob really believes he is by the or- dinary man when it comes to ladies, but society doesn ' t seem to worry him very much except on some occasions, he will become aroused and make a venture, but it has never become a habit with him. His chief assets are his good nature and the smile which he always wears, these having made him many friends during his three years here. If he tackles the world as he has his work in college we cannot conceive of anything but a big success for him. Pee Wee Football, 1911; Scrub Football, 1912; Varsity Football, 1913; M. A. S.

Two of the most felicitous cognomens in the world of nomenclature have been applied to this manufacturer of smiles — Happy and Love. The former, and more appropriate, because of his ever present and always genuine smile; the latter because of his re- markable resemblance to one of our most popular professors, Mr. Love. Happy, with his jovial wit and unaffected humor, came to us in our Junior year. Preferring the romance and glamour of the Civil En- gineer ' s life to the dull, uninteresting routine of a Methodist circuit rider, he decided to cast his lot in with us instead of staying at Millsaps. He stands well in his classes, and better in the hearts and esteem of his classmates. If he does not falter in the stride he has struck during the two years he has spent with us, we are sure that he will realize his fondest hope and highest ambition — to occupy Dr. Walker ' s chair as Professor of Mathematics.

It was not long before be was known to both class- mates and profs as a fellow who could be counted on for good work. Kid Strahan also showed up well in military, performing his duty well, and as an officer letting Mercy temper justice. No one admires the ladies more than he, and still you would not classify him as a society man. From the thickness of the letters which be gets from Columbus, one is convinced immediately that he is at least well acquainted with and ap- preciated by one young lady. Ask him about Daisy. Sol will some day lie a Master Me- chanic on the I. C. Railroad. Then he and Mrs. E. K. will receive friends in their Chicago suburban borne. His many friends wish him bon voyage.

He represented the college at the Black Mountain Conference, in the Student Volunteer Movement at Kansas City, Mo., and won first place in the Y. M. C. A. build- ing contest. He presumes upon tbe theory that activity hurts no one, as is shown by his securing horseshoe ads for the Reflector, iiid even in strapping cadets in the section room.

Rube, as he is familiarly known, originated in Columbus, and has been with us three years. He has proven a good student and has not neglected his studies, yet we all know that he devoted a great deal of his time to the study of military; especially to devising methods of avo iding it. His chief pastime is serving extras, ' and he considers a Sat- urday afternoon utterly devoid of pleasure if the monotony is not broken by the walking of Tours. Also, he is ardently devoted to football and makes this sport his chief rec- reation. Rube is fired with ambition to become a great Electrical Engineer, and we hope some day to see him following in the footsteps of Edison. Mississippi Sabres; M. A. S.

We find in him those qualities which will make him a successful man in his future work. Though not a shining light in agricultural engineering, we feel sure that he is familiar enough with it for all practical purposes. His work in college activities, and especially in the clubs and organizations, has been quite extensive. It is in this connection that many of us thought Floyd would have to be classed as a ladies ' man. However, he does not re- frain entirely, and we cannot quite put him on the genuine sports list.

Mrs. Powell has been a faithful, persever- ing pedagogical co-ed from our Freshman year up, and, although deprived of attend- ing classes in her Senior year by action of the board of trustees debarring ladies from attending the college, by special ruling of the faculty she nas been permitted to take her examinations regularly and will finish with the illustrious Class ' 14. Our pedagogues are especially proud of having the only lady member of our class in their midst, realizing full well the refining influence that a lady ' s presence exercises fr association. .Mrs. Powell has by per- sistence attained the goal, and her pathway has not been devoid of special glory; in her Sophomore year sue had the honor of winning the Magruder medal. The very best wisnes of our noble band go out to you, Mrs. Powell, for a graciously success- ful future. i (I ii f- V. rntnr (Ulafls ijtatory The deeds of renown and chivalry of our heroes of the past ages have been chronicled in song and story by the inspired muses. Their achievements have been wrought into figures of stone and bronze by the sculptors. Writers have vied with each other in immortalizing them in literature. It is therefore fitting that we pay tribute to a body of men — gentlemen all, who possess the traits that bespeak true manhood. Men who by their perseverance and endurance during four years of brain-racking toil, delving into the intricacies of science and laboring under innumerable difficulties, have been crowned with the richest laurels of success, — Hail the incomparable Class ' 14 ! It was in the memorable fall of 1910 that the bulk of our warrior band assembled on the classic hills of the Mississippi A. . M. College, and promptly made preparations for a four-year siege of that mighty stronghold. Our exter- nal appearance as Freshies was g reen — yea verdant, but underneath all was a virgin golden embryo in which lay hidden the qualities and attributes requisite for conquerors and which developed during the years of college activity. From the very first we demonstrated our ability to compete successfully in the different contests. In the clash for class football superiority, such a spirit of aggressiveness and determination was never before manifest by Fresh- men. Only after a bitter struggle were the Juniors proclaimed the victors, and their battered features bore true testimony to the fierceness of the combat. While probably the largest class to matriculate at this institution, we have ever been bound together with a feeling of enthusiasm and of good fellowship. Class unity was and is characteristic in every sense of the word. We returned to continue the conquest in our Sophomore year with more polished appearances (which the professors mistook for wisdom). Our bitter- est rivals succumbed to the victorious tread of our mighty warriors of the gridiron and diamond. Other classes bowed to the inevitable. The tank was decorated with a portentous l-f which has since looked down in calm suprem- acy, unmolested. In an attempt to celebrate Washington ' s Birthday with due pomp, necessitating absenting ourselves from all duties, many an ambitious corporal was stripped of his ornamental insignia and there was much lamenta- tion anion - such members of our ranks. Our Junior year was a stormy one — a stage in our metamorphosis which was to try men ' s souls. We are not ashamed to say we were in the strike of November, 1912. Nor do I care to dwell upon conditions leading up to this event. Suffice it to say, we returned home with a feeling of sorrow mingled with pride, knowing that we could still hold up our heads without shame. After due deliberation, realizing that the education of most of us was at stake and feeling that we had exercised undue haste in our action, we returned to renew the conquest for Knowledge. Through our efforts the military standard of the institution was upheld. During this year our class produced some very promising orators who reflected a great deal of credit upon themselves and on the institution by winning every contest in the Mississippi Triangular Debate. At last we are Seniors, we have reached the climax of our conquest and at its successful termination in June our faithful warriors will bear off their dips triumphantly, prepared to face the trials of life and conquer. We were denied privileges in this year that would have made our life here more enjoy- able, yet we cheerfully adjusted ourselves to the new customs and performed the duties devolving upon us satisfactorily. We are now about to enter into life ' s many and varied activities ; opportu- nities are beckoning us on to do great things and our four years of college training we feel has rendered us able to cope successfully with the great prob- lems that are to confront us. It pulls the heart-strings to part with the friends we love so well, yet duty stands before us and bids us be up and doing. May true manhood, loyalty to our fellowmen, and an indomitable spirit characterize us in the future as true leaders of men. Ettgmrcrmg 3untora Allen, 1). E. Ames, X. B. Anderson, C. L. Apperson, W.

Junior (Elaas Iftstnnj The Class of ' 15, like some of the great men of the past, met with resist- ance, but, halting not, they marched forth with a hold, fearless determination to scan the future and quickly overcome every obstacle. We have crossed the stream of success and pride, surmounted the peaks of adversity, plodded through fields of hidden mysteries, and overcome mountains of opposition. At no time have we grown faint-hearted and fallen by the wayside ready to give up in despair, but instead our misfortunes have served to lift up our purposes and stimulate our progressive journey with greater vim and keener determina- tion. The battle is three-fourths won, we no longer think of the blood-stained flag, but listen to the sweet voice of almost completed echoing and re-echoing along the distant hills. Our college career has been rugged, yet fruitful. We have achieved gracious success under manifold difficulties, and leave behind a record that is yet to be surpassed. This ( the Junior) year has been the Golden Age of our college career. It is true we unfortunately dropped a few of our old men from the list, but not from memory, while men from other institutions have taken their places, and we can still boast of having the largest class ever assembled at A. M. — a class having in it men who possess requisites for great attainments. We have given the very best that we possessed in every phase of college activity, whether it be in the class rooms, shops, or on the athletic field. To Push Forward has been our motto. We are represented in every branch of athletics by able men; in football we have furnished six varsity men and nine scrubs. In other branches of athletics we are equally as well represented. The Junior Class football team was one of the strongest on the field, having licked the dignified Seniors and won second place in the championship series. In the selection of All-Class football team, the Class of 15 was represented by five. Yet that is not all. The men who received the hard knocks on the football field and caught the hot balls on the diamond are also the leaders in academic work, which bids fair to establish the new rule that requires class room efficiency before athletic activities. Our work for the present session shows that we have not been negligent in the affairs that pertain to college life. While nothing really wonderful has ! 4 - been accomplished, still there are many little things which have been done which add life and vigor to our college surroundings. For instance, in our Sopho- more year our debating team returned from Moorhead with Millsap ' s scalp hanging at their belts. We have heartily supported the Y. M. C. A., assisted in making the Dramatic Club a wonderful success, and have generously sup- ported all the other organizations of the institution. Ere many moons we shall have passed from Juniordom into Seniordom, and ere we are set in our dignified ways the Class of ' 15 will be no more, but its memories and pleasant associations s hall ever cling to the heart of every loyal Fifteener. Then the love, the friendships, and the imperishable memories of our noble band will pass into the history of our Alma Mater. — Historian. gwtg of tijr Junior (ElaBa Our ship is rounding a goodly cape, She has weathered many a gale; And hope and courage are flowing free As the wind that fills every sail.

Propelled by favoring breezes strong Ncxl we reached the Junior pier, Shipped a cargo, of wonderful lore; Bid we now adieu to this year.

It was in September of 19U that our verdant band made its debut into the A. M. life. After serving out our term buying bath tickets and guarding monuments on rainy nights, we finally emerged from that stage of our metamorphosis and got down to real hard work. Class organization was effected very early in our career, and we have since grown more and more welded together in class unity. Notwithstanding the fact that the strike in November of that year scattered us to the four winds, most of us were back and at work by the first of December with our ranks depleted. Basket Ball season was on hand soon, and we showed our prowess in this direc- tion by barely losing the championship fray to the Juniors after a very spirited series. Never faltering, however, we came back in the field-day meet and again made success very difficult for the Juniors, who won by a very narrow margin of points. ' At the opening of the session of 1913-14 our fellows showed the quality of their make- up by being on hand at the beginning with almost all of the men who had composed our class in the previous year. Some few of our comrades were missing, but their places were oc- cupied by new men, and Class ' l(j continued to lie a very large class. And those of us who failed on any of our Freshman work, returned with greater determination to obtain knowl- edge and keep pace with our fellows than ever before. In athletics the present Sophomore Class has not been found lacking. We have furnished more Varsity men for the various teams than did any other preceding Sophomore Class. And although our Class teams have not attained pre-eminent success in every line, they have in every case made a determined effort, and are none the less dismayed for the future because we have not won first. On the other hand, our future teams shall battle all the harder in order to attain the goals we have in the past all but made. But when we consider that quality of the Class that makes for greatness, it is not alone in athletics that Class Mi has an enviable record; as men gentlemen, sane, honest, and studious men our band of fellows will compare favorably with any other class in college. Our Class, as a. class, has not been of the bragg art type that may be found in some classes — they are very conservative in manner, speech and character. At the very beginning of our career, we resolved to make the Y. M. C. A. our most intimate friend, and it has been for our fellows to aid in its generous support. Our support came not only in a passive measure, but the Sophomores were very active in securing the Y. M. C. A. Building Fund, and we are entertaining hopes of sharing the many privileges that the building will afford us, as well as the inestimable good which it will afford future students at our Alma Mater. In reviewing the history of achievements of Class ' Mi you will find that it is not in the big things that our Class has done most, but it is the many, many little deeds nobly done which will forever enshrine in the hearts of thinking men the Class of 1916.

We are not prophets that we may pierce the veil of the future and bring to view a record of achievements which are to be accomplished. But, taking past accomplishments as indicative of what is likely to be, we can safely predict a record for Class ' 17 that, cannot easily be surpassed — a record of the noblest attainments of man. The great chain of hoys who constitute our ranks appeared in college circles early in September of 1913. The new sights and surroundings were at first appalling to the timid sort, but ere long they had imbibed their bolder brother classmen ' s spirit until they learned to stand for their rights, and with heads erect, felt no humiliation at. having the title Freshies thrust upon them. In the beginning it was clearly a case of the survival of the fittest, and with that dominant fighting spirit imbued from infancy, we began to meet foemen with a cool fearlessness. Thus foe, trained and experienced, appeared on every hand. He had to be conquered in society, in the halls of oratory, on the athletic fields, and in innumerable other places. That is not exceptional, as all other classes have had to encounter the same difficulties at the beginning. But it is something to be proud of that we have won the title of Champions of the Gridiron. In the recitation rooms there has been swift and sure progress, and when the awe-inspiring climax of ascending into higher classes shall come, we will not tremble with the fear of being unprepared or incompetent, but. will meet the barriers with knife and lance aflame with the fires of determination that are characteristic of Class ' 17 ' . What care we then if the hours are long or studies hard? A class that has once won can again accomplish the same end, even along different lines. In a few short years our troubles here will be forgotten, and Ave will recall with pleasure the happy days of our Freshman year and the progress then made toward that goal sought by all. Volumes could be written on the noble characters that compose our class, but in this short space only a brief intro- duction is made that will give an insight to the triumphs and successes already valiantly begun, which will be renewed with greater lustre in the years to come.

Truly the personnel of the club and tin- quality nf art displayed have won for it this high praise. While the primary object of the club is to pro te the dramatic side of the development of its members, and this it has done; still there is such a feeling of good fellowship among each and every member of the organization, together with the abundant opportunities for social development, that the social benefit derived from membership in this hand of jolly good fellows is of no little importance. Members are taken from the best qualified of the college and campus. Only persons who are entirely satisfactory in every respect to the members of the club are taken in. So much judgment has been exercised in this direction that there is not an individual in the club who is not liked by every other member of the club. This has caused the ties of fellowship to be cemented; indeed that is the striking characteristic of this hand of fellow amateurs — FELLOW- SHIP. Too, the membership is limited to twenty- ten from the Senior Class and ten from the Junior Class. Heretofore the Dramatic Clnh has never been so active in its organization and presentation of plays. This year effectual organization took place very early in the session and before the end of the first term the great college drama, Strongheart, was enacted during the first term in the College Chapel, in the I. 1. C. Chapel at Columbus, and at the theatres in Tupelo and Corinth. Everywhere Strongheart was presented it made a decided hit and the club ended the first term feeling that they had accomplished gracious success in the dramatic field. The second term opened with a roaring comedy, Charlie ' s Aunt, booked for the mid-term appearance. Crowded badly with work, the players were unable to get this play in the best condition for presentation until immediately following the second term examinations. It was then shown at the College, in Columbus, and in West Point; in each place the clnh found that the play met with the same successful presentation that characterized the appearance of the initial play. following Charlie ' s Aunt in quick succession, the witty drama, The Butterflies, was prepared for staging. The outlook for fully as successful advent of this number is encouraging and the plans are that this play together with the second will he staged at Grenada, Kosciusko, Oxford, and probably Greenville. Although the dramatic year of this organization has not closed, from past successes and from present outlooks, we judge that the club will end the year as profitably as it commenced it. The year has already borne many happy hours to the fellows and ladies of the hand and in future years remembrances of genial association and comradeship in the A. M. Dramatic Clnh for the year T 913-14 ' shall he a cheerful thought to all such as arc fortunate enough to have been members of that select organization.

Since that time it lias been the center of Christian life among the students. The aim of the Young Men ' s Christian Association is to develop clean, strong. Christian men. The work of the association is wide and varied, and every student has the opportunity of enter- ing the various phases and activities, thereby developing the power of leader- ship and becoming better fitted to battle with the realities of life. The activities of the association embrace: Mission study, in which live topics are taught by professors of the college, four of such subjects being given the past year, namely, Uplift of China, 1 which is very pertinent to the present condition of China; The Challenge of the Country, ' Aliens or Americans, and Negro Life in the South. Three hundred and twenty students were enrolled in this course. Bible study is one of the best means for reaching the inner life of the student body, and great interest is taken in the several subjects taught in this course, four hundred and fifty men pledging to attend these classes, which are taught by students. Owing to lack of facili- ties, the classes meet in the dormitories, but we expect this to be remedied when the new building is completed. The leaders of Bible study classes meet in normal-class groups under the leadership of the pastors of Starkville. Prayer meetings are held every Wednesday night, at which time there is a large attend- ance. These meetings are very helpful and full of the spirit of prayer. The regular association meetings are held in the chapel Sunday evenings, the lecture usually being delivered by a professor of the college or an out-of-town speaker engaged for the occasion. The meetings so far this year have been inspiring and with an attendance that averaged over two hundred. In November, 1913. the State Conference was held here. Most of the important schools and col- leges sent representatives. The conference was the means of deepening the spiritual life of the entire college, and will long be remembered by those who came in close touch with the conference. This year has been a fortunate one to us in some respects, as the Student Volunteer Convention was held at Kansas City in .January, enabling us to gather inspiration from the great world leaders on the world ' s greatest needs. Six delegates attended the conference. Many homes on the campus and in the town of Starkville have been opened for the entertainment of our Bible study classes, besides other socials at which the entire membership was entertained. The social feature of the association is stressed and we try to make things as near homelike as possible for the students. Work is rapidly progressing on our new home, and the association endeavors, when that new building is completed, and we move to our new home, to make life worth more at old A. M. HS§ ATHLETICS :-Kl m 0 ft n v (L a A ) o Jt s dfc $- iflnnthall dummartJ A. M. started the season with but three regulars from last year ' s squad. With these men and several of last year ' s subs, Coaches Chadwick and Hayes opened one of the heaviest schedules the Maroon and White has had to face. The most optimistic admirers could see nothing but defeat staring the Bull- dogs in the fact ' m the coming important games. But what was the result? Working with a dogged determination to uphold the honor of dear old A. M., the boys threw aside such obstacles as lack of material, experience, and a difficult schedule. They started in to upset dope, realizing that it meant the battle of their lives to build up a fighting machine which would be able to cope with the powerful elevens they had to meet. How well they succeeded we all know, and we are all justly proud of those hard-earned victories. The opening game with Howard turned out to be a burlesque, for the Howard collegians were unable to withstand the fierce plunges of the Aggies ' ' backs or prevent the big farmer line from breaking through. Following this was the much talked of Mississippi College game. With the score standing 14 to 13 against them and eight more minutes to play, Mississippi College forfeited the game. This forfeiture of the game 1 to by Coach Bible left our record clear, and we entered the Kentucky game with a clean slate The winning of the K entucky game by an overwhelming score, of course gave the team added life, and they journeyed to Birmingham actually believing themselves capable of taking Auburn ' s measure. But they reckoned without taking into consideration Donahue ' s cleverness as a coach, and his ability to turn out formidable elevens. Following the disastrous game with Auburn the Maroon and White journeyed to Texas to tackle the Big Texas aggregation, which defeated us the year previous 42 to 7. Showing a complete reversal of form over the preceding Saturday, they walloped Texas A. M. on their own soil 7 to 0, and that after one of the hardest trips any S. I. A. A. team had to take the whole season. Worn out, but cheered by this victory, the team re- turned home for the game with Tulane on Nov. 1. When the smoke cleared away A. X: M. had added another seal]) to her list, and Tulane was forced to return to New Orleans sadder but much the wiser for their trip to Starkville. And then our game with L. S. U. ! This 0-0 deadlock was by far the pret- tiest exhibition of football ever seen on Hardy Field. Neither team was able to show to advantage, though A. M. did finally fight their way down to within the shadow of the Louisiana goal only to be stopped by the whistle ending the fierce struggle. Having upset dope so badly by holding L. S. U. to an even game, enthusiasm naturally ran riot through the halls of the college, and every- one turned their attention to the crucial Thanksgiving game with Alabama. The Aggies clearly outplayed Alabama, winning the game by a score of 7-0. Playing eight games, winning six, tying one and losing one to Auburn, the undefeated Southern champions when we were badly crippled, we feel no hesi- tancy in laying claim to second place in the standing of S. I. A. A- teams. Tis true that A. M. boasted of no Newells, McWhorters, Duttons or Pad- docks, but they did have a team of eleven men banded together as a unit, who played for the sake of winning the game and not for individual glory. And they won ! FOOTBALL SCORKS, 1913. October 4 — Howard College October 10— Miss. College October 17 — Cen. U. of Kentucky October 25 — Auburn 34 November 1 — Texas A.

Although this was Spurlock ' s first year on the squad, he proved himself to be one of the most dependable men at guard that has ever represented the Maroon and White KlXNEY. Kinney, the little quarterback, though playing his first year on the ' Varsity, han- dled the team successfully, and proved the old axiom that quality and not quantity counts. Potter. This was Potter ' s second year on I lie ' Varsity and the big fellow handled him- self in grand style throughout the entire season. His defensive work featured many a game. Noble. Though Noble was handicapped at the beginning of the season with injuries, he played great hall whenever he was able to enter the game. His great speed was the talk of gridiron circles. jHvAai .i-. Iff w Coach Chadwick. Coach Chadwick ' s ability as a football coach was severely tested this season, and he was not found lacking. With green ma- terial to work with, he turned out the best team in years. Coach Hayes. Coach Hayes has proven himself a first- class coach in every respect. His ability to mix with the fellows and get them to work for him is the keynote of his success. Baker. Esau was one of our first-string half- backs this season, and was always there with the pep and fight. His line plunges struck terror to all opponents. Rainey. Dub compared favorably with any tackle in the South. The big fellow is fast, powerful, and aggressive. He uses all of these good qualities in his attempts to break the opposing line. Lewy. Jew was quite a surprise to many this season. Being given an opportunity to prove his worth, he soon developed into one of the star line men on our team. Simmons. This is Pete ' s first year with us, and he was not used regularly. However, he is a fast man, aggressive, and a fierce tackier. o doubt lie will he a valuable man next vea r. McAiitiii ' ii. Big Mac was shifted from the line to half- back this season, and took to the place like duck to water. Many of his admirers pre- dict an All-Southern berth for him next year. McCleur. Cush was used at several positions this year, but played end like a veteran. His punting was good at all times, and will be sorely missed next year, when he leaves us. $S$IS£B£E Shaw. Shaw rounded into form towards the end of the season, and was one of our best ends. His size and speed should make him a valuable man next season. Gaudy. Senator Crumb played a very strong- game at end during the latter Dart of the season. He is fast, heavy, and powerful, and will make a wonder some day. RuFFIX. Fatty played a star game at center the entire season. He was good both on offense and deiense, and is easily the best tackier on the team. Hurst. This was Hurst ' s first year on the team, but lie played good, consistent ball when- ever he was allowed to enter the game. He will be a good man next season. (EiasH iFmitball Class football was again the center of attraction at A. X: M. after the close of the regular varsity schedule. The games this season were probably the most successful and most important ever staged between the classes. Several reasons are attributed to their unusual importance and the inter- est manifested this season. The teams were evenly matched, it being practically impossible to pick the best one from mere observation. Then, too, our next year ' s varsity team depends a great deal on the men who participated in these class contests. In addition, the athletic department, for the first time in the history of the institution, decided to award sweaters to the eleven men making the coveted all-class eleven. The series of elimination games opened with the seniors and juniors facing each other, ready for a battle royal. Neither side was able to score, however, so the dispute had to run for another week. In the meantime the freshmen suc- ceeded in drubbing the sophomores by a score of 7-0. One week following the sophomore Waterloo was the day appointed for the resumption of hostilities between the seniors and juniors. Towards the end of a hard, gruelling contest the juniors placed a lucky drop kick between the horizontals, thus giving them the right to argue with the freshmen for class supremacy. With the odds seemingly against them the big freshmen team entered the contest to do or die. Just how well they succeeded we all know ! The game was running smoothly, with neither side showing to any decided advantage, when all of a sudden one of the powerful freshmen backs slipped through the heretofore impregnable junior breastworks, evaded all tacklers and planted the coveted pigskin between the uprights for the only touchdown of the game. Though the juniors raged inwardly, their outward attempts were fruitless, and the lowly freshmen were acknowledged class champions for the season of 1913. One bright morning soon after there was an unusual commotion noticed around the chapel and in the vicinity of the parade grounds. Upon investiga- tion it was found that the large ' 14 which had reposed there for several years had disappeared during the night, and in its place an immense ' 17 looked out over the campus, monarch of all it surveyed. Thus endeth the story, fulfilling the prophecy that The last shall be first, and the first last. ;o 5 z o 2 CO - - = u a , ' ..

Our ' varsity has not only won the state championship for three years, but, in addition to this, has not been defeated by a Mississippi team during that period. In fact, they have lost but two games in three years, dropping the two in ques- tion to Alabama this season. Our team this year deserves much credit for the strong game they played a 4 - all times. With but two veterans back and a few of last, year ' s scrubs Coach Hayes was compelled to use this material as a nucleus to round out another team which would be able to defend the Maroon and White colors. Now that the curtain lias fallen on the last act of the 1914 basket ball season it may be of interest to some to know just bow it happened. It is use- less to attempt to pick a star, for every man played his position well, and all should share in the honor. BASKET BALL SCORES, January January January February Februarj February 14— A.

They lost but one series out of twenty-eight games, and that to the University of Alabama, claimants for the S. I. A, A. championship. A. M. opened her collegiate season with Marion Military Institute, win- ning both games handily- Tulane was next to suffer the humiliation of a dou- ble defeat at the hands of the ' Aggies. Following the games with Tulane the farmer boys visited Alabama in Tuscaloosa, but were unable to stop the fast Alabama aggregation, the Red and White winning two games from us by a margin of one run each time. Upon their return home they tackled Millsaps for a series of three games, storing two of those games away for safe keeping. The next week A. M. took her trip, stopping at Jackson long enough to trounce Millsaps again, and then journeying to Baton Rouge, where they took all three games from L. S. U. From there they went to Tulane, taking one and losing one. This trip hurt the team, however, and when Alabama came over to return our visit the best we could do was to play them one twelve-inning tie game and lose another twelve-inning game by one run. This blasted our hopes for the Southern championship, but still left us the state championship to work for. Thus, when Mississippi College arrived, we were well prepared to give her a hearty reception. The two games were evenly divided, leaving the game at Aber- deen to decide the state championship squabble. We all know how easy our Mississippi College friends were on that occasion, so for the third consecutive year A. M. was able to flaunt her colors over all rivals for state supremacy in baseball. As a fitting climax to such a successful season the boys chased up to Nash- ville and took proud old Vanderbilt ' s measure in two of the three games played. Taking the season as a whole, we believe that A. M. had a clear claim to second place in the S. I. A. A. RECORD OF BASEBALL TEAM, SEASON OF 1913. Mississippi A. M 5 Mississippi A. M 7 Mississippi A.

M. enjoyed her most successful year on the track last year, winning the state championship by an overwhelming margin and losing the S. I. A. A. meet by only three points. Inasmuch as this was the first time A. M. has ever entered the Southern meet, the Aggies ' have just cause to feel proud of their record established last year at New Orleans. In the state meet A. M. made 92 out of a possible 120 points, or, in other words, about three times as many as the other colleges of the state put together. Wells, for A. M., in the 220-yard dash, established a record of 21 1-5 seconds. This record was not beaten by any college man in America during last year. At the S. I. A. A. meet in New Orleans Lamb broke the Southern record for the discus throw, hurling the discus 11-t feet. Scott was the particular star of the meet, winning the quarter easily over the best quarter-milers in the South, and establishing a new Southern record for the half mile. In addition to this, he ran the fastest quarter mile of the meet in the relay race, and that after he had walked away with the other two events. RECORD OF OUR TRACK MEN AT THE STATE MEET. Event.

The whole season passed before my mental eye as was passing the bleak fields outside the coach window. The early hopes for full membership on the ' Varsity had long since vanished, and I was glad to be even taken on the trips and allowed to don my old uniform and watch the game from the sidelines — a sub. The final game of the season was only a few hours awav, and my thoughts persistently dwelt on the possibility of my getting into it ; there came the mem- ory of the erratic work of Evers in the last game. Coach had jerked him out in the second half and I was put in. Tech had made several long gains around left end. Evers did not seem to be able to break into the interference; he was in the midst of the play, but seemed to offer little resistance to the plunging backs that kept plugging at him. At rare intervals he would flash behind the line and down the players before they had hardly received the ball, and then he seemed to lose all ambition to stop the opposing backfield at all, who, under the lash of the sharp-voiced, red-haired quarter had raced noisily around his end time after time for long gahis. Tech had beaten us 23 to 0. But I remem- bered that all the scoring had been done before I was put in. I wondered if I deserved any credit for that. Only two or three plays had been started around my end, and I had been lucky enough to stop them somehow. The game was won, so why should they try to humiliate us by piling up the score? I had guessed that they had let up about the time of my advent into the game. Earlier in the season I had been permitted to play against Alabama during the last half, and as I recalled this fact I thought of the statement given out by the athletic committee that men playing three halves — we had no quarters then as now — would be given a jersey with the coveted M on the breast. If I could only get to play in half of the great game tomorrow I should be entitled to wear this prized emblem of ability. But no; Evers was the more experienced man, and too much depended upon our winning the game for me to think of my personal desires. Still it would be pleasant to wear the letter. How luce they appeared on the other fellows! Evers did not have one; it was his first year as well as mine, but others around me bravely displayed them beneath their coats. My meditations were interrupted by Evers himself dropping into the seat beside me. He did not seem to be in the best of spirits. After carelessly Hinging a paper aside he asked me if 1 knew Thorne personally. I had never seen or heard of Thorne until he bobbed up as right tackle at the University, so I promptly denied the honor of his acquaintance. Wondering why Evers had asked such a question, I was about to voice my thought when he said : I see that the halfback at S. P. U. whom this Tliorne put in the hospital witli three broken ribs is able to be out again and may play in tomorrow ' s game. I understand that the fellow will not graduate because of the time lost in the hospital. Rough, isn ' t it? He may be able to make up the back work, I replied. You know it is a long time till commencement yet. Not getting homesick, are you? he said, watching me closely. Oh, no, not at all, I answered. He really should be able to finish if he has no back work to make up. Well, anyway, Thorne fixed him up in nice style. Three ribs and as many bruises as is given the usual tough steak in an eat joint. He picked up the paper and turned carelessly to the sporting page, where to my surprise I saw a picture of a fellow in football toggerv under which was printed an article to the effect that Thorne was expected to be the chief aggres- sor in the championship clash on the morrow, when University played A. M. in the annual Turkey Day fracas. The picture showed a man of athletic build, but the striking thing about it was his face. Never have I seen so ferocious an expression on a man ' s face. Evers had noticed it, too. Guess the photographer forgot to ask him to ' look pleasant, please, ' when he struck that off, he said whimsically. I would by no means back him at a beauty show, I rejoined. Looks as if his face had been burned or something. Well, we ' ll see more of him tomorrow, and we will change that look into a sob before the game is over, Evers replied, as he began to take his suitcase from the rack. We ' ll be in town in a few minutes. The others were crowding toward the door, and Evers joined them to reply to some bit of raillery that Burke, the other end, had shot at him. Burke was the life of the team, and his wit was famed the country round. He had been on the team for three years, and his work had been one of our main assets in the paper battle that had been waged for the past week in the press of this section. He had coached Evers during the whole of the season, and had also given me some valuable advice about breaking up plays. Every fellow who knew him was his friend. Old Ugly Mug is going to eat you up tomorrow, he was telling Evers as we alighted from the train and waited for the coach to get some baggage that had been checked Gobble you up, hide and all, he finished. ■ ■--■.-?•- I ' ll ask coach to put Sandy in first so his appetite will not be so keen when lie gets to me, Evers replied, laughing. Does he start at the head? I called to Burke. If so I will put some rocks in my headgear to aid his digestion. After supper Evers and I were walking out of the hotel lobby when Evers whispered to me to look, nodding his head toward a passing fellow, and follow- ing his nod I saw Thome. There was no question as to his identity. He looked as if he had just eaten a supper of horse shoes or some other dainty breakfast food that had not located itself exactly where it should. The expression on his face was terrible. We loitered around and saw him go over to the cigar coun- ter, where the girl involuntarily drew back on his approach. He asked for gum, which she handed him nervously, and immediately after she picked up a maga- zine as if to hide his face from her sight. Next morning as we gathered for breakfast around the big table I noticed that Evers did not look as fresh as he shou d have looked n the morning of our greatest battle, and when coach asked him how he felt he replied that the bed at the hotel was the worst lie had ever seen. All hills and hollows, he had said, of the wrong size. Coach did not push the matter further, and the meal passed with the usual expressions preceding a great game. There were few references to the game itself and then only in some frivolous way, but many little incidents of tin 1 season that had almost passed. The tension was not too high, and still the interest was top-notch. Our coach was a master at this kind of work and deserved a more successful season than he had had. The fellows had been treated royally and were willing to wade through fire and brimstone if he had commanded it. But so many of us were new men. Coming from small villages of the state, where our football experience had been of the kicking kind, out on the pastures and in the vacant lots, we knew little indeed of this way of advancing the ball by science and skill. But he had labored hard, and we had lost only two games. A victory today would wipe out all the shortcomings of the early season, a nd a victorv w r ould require the full strength of every man that went to make up the team. The sun had passed the zenith and we began to dress for the game. Soon vre were in the bus on the way to the field of conflict. Evers had caused some delay by being late, but he explained that he had needed a shave, so no one had noticed his absence except that imperturbable smile that the coach had dis- played — which caused me to wonder if he had attached any importance to Evers ' ' absence. In a sort of dream I saw the game start without me, and from my position on the sidelines I watched the fierce battle wage to and fro. Neither team seemed able to advance the hall consistently, and so all of the playing was near the center of the gridiron. The evil face of Thorne flashed about this way and that. He seemed able to foresee each play, and I noticed that when tackling men he rolled every chance he had, seemingly in hope of twisting an ankle or knee and weakening our team by forcing in substitutes. Moreland, our big fullback, had been caught in one of his twisting tackles and had had time called. He seemed very angry about something, and after a whispered word to our quarter most of our plays were aimed at Thorne. Moreland was a powerful fellow, and his plunging over Thome ' s position worked well for a time, but soon the gaining ceased. Then it was that I noticed that Evers had been catching smoke in the plays on his side of the line. The ball went over and University seemed to prefer to run plays over Thome ' s position. And he was making great holes in the line, which required the closest vigilance of the backs to keep plugged. Then they tried off end plays over Evers. Every second or third play was around or over him for five or ten yards. The terrible strain was telling. There was a commotion outside the wire fence. I turned to sec a police- man waving a telegram. Stepping to the fence I was told that it was for Evers. It is very important, the officer said. I saw that it was unsealed and, open- ing it, I read: Mother dying; come at once. FATHER. This was indeed a sad blow to come to a fellow at the height of his success. Under stress of the occasion I determined not to show it until after the game. No trains left at this time and a delay would not matter. I could break the news better and more quietly afterwards. On a punt the play was brought close to my point and I naturally noticed Evers. He must have had some telepathic message, for he looked to me the most miserable creature living. I saw his jaw set and knew there was a fierce struggle within. He looked at me appealingly. I did not know what to do, so did nothing. In his abstraction he let a play get by him, and with his mistake came the coach ' s call for me to replace him. Before I could get off my sweater the half was over, and the men came tired and fagged to a group. I was ordered to start the next half. Sharp and strong was the talk from the coaches, and we set our souls to win. Evers confirmed my telepathic suspicion by asking for the telegram. To my surprise he absently tore it into bits without reading it, before I could frame any words of sympathy. I was indeed puzzled. The game demanded my atten- tion, and I soon forgot the incident until afterwards. We were lucky in the second half, for we got away for a touchdown in the first few minutes and held the University during the rest of the game. That night I was very happy, and as I was prepared to curl up in bed Evers ' strange actions recurred to me. Like a flash I saw it all. He had torn the telegram to bits without reading it. Then lie must have known its con- now? Had he sent it himself? But why? Yes, that was it. He knew this was my last year, and having the letter M assured for him- self arranged this little scheme so that I would get one. I appreciated his big-heartedness, still I had preferred to earn my reward without help. But I was sent in before he received the message, because of his indifferent work. How- ever, he might have played carelessly for that purpose. That expression of misery! Was his mother ill? He had made no mention of the fact. My re- flections were interrupted by his entrance into the room. He did not look in the best of spirits. He had something to say, and I waited until he broke the silence. I sent that message to myself, he said at last. I thought as much, I answered, and I understand. This reply seemed to trouble him, and a wave of compassion seemed to sweep over him. I had no idea that Evers thought enough of me to risk his reputation in order that I might play. I was an imbecile to be so clumsy. Thanks for the sentiment implied in his actions rushed to my lips. You don ' t understand at all, he said when I had finished. I was think- ing of myself when I told that lie about shaving, not about you. And as for my big heart, as you call it, it ' s half yellow. I sent that message because I was afraid — afraid of Thorne. H. S. S., ' 14. A foap f ear proposal Your house is much too large for one But just the size for two ; Suppose you fix it up real cute. And I ' ll keep house for vou. An old bachelor they say you are, I know you are my fate ; I drop these lines to you, To see if you want me for your mate. I write to you tonight, For I know you lonesome are; Let us take our wedding tour next week Aboard a Pullman car. It is dangerous to go down life ' s hill In this kind of weather; Let me slip my hand in yours, And we ' ll walk down together. THE ANSWER. My house is just the size for one. But too small for two, vou see; You can live with someone else, But you cannot live with me. I know I am an old bachelor. And I always want to be ; What do I care for girls, Or a wife that will boss me? I have loved a lot of girls. But there will be no wedding bells for me; There is nothing in a wedding tour, Or a trip (with you) across the sea. It is dangerous to go down life ' s hill When the snow is on the ground; But if you had a mother-in-law with you She would certainly throw vou down. K. H. M.

The answer prompt returned ; All seemed ready for the battle, All compromises spurned. The Juniors, under Cutey, And the Seniors, under Chap, Decided they were ready To put up their final scrap. The battle proved conclusive; Both teams were closely matched ; A scoreless game was ended, And very few men scratched. Then Gaddy ' s men of wisdom, And Red Patton ' s famous band Next occupied attention, And nobly took a stand. They played the game of football As taught by Hayes and Chad, And the way they used that pigskin Nearly drove the bleachers mad. But finally the tension Became too great to stand, And the Sophs began to weaken. While the Pattonites gained sand. The Freshmen pushed it over, The bleachers yelled delight ; Gaddy ' s men retired gracefully, And politely said Good-night. f Ai M 4 ' The next, game was a beauty ; To play off a scoreless tie Every man was there and ready, Willing to do or die. When the game was nearly over, Both teams seemed in despair; The Juniors dropped a field goal, And a shout then filled the air. Thus stood the famous series ; The Sophs and Seniors out, Both Freshmen and the Juniors Rushed in battle with a shout. It was a royal contest, As back and forth they plowed, The mighty cheers arising From a noisy, loyal crowd. There was joy among the Freshmen As their classmates, inch by inch, Gained upon their adversaries, Though the latter did not flinch. Then something suddenly happened As a bolt from a clear sky: A man was seen to break away And toward the goal line fly. Somewhere there ' ll be recorded Gallant victories each class won ; Perhaps in the near future Other races will be run. But the Nineteen-Thirteen series Class football champion team Is without a single question The gallant Freshmen seventeen. — Read by Dr. Rakck in Presekmxg All-Class Jerseys.

College Farm, Agricultural College, Miss. THE BEST IS THE CHEAPEST. IT COSTS MORE TO BUY BUT LESS TO OWN. Remember: When an inferior outfit shuts down from breakage, the cost of repair is of no importance when compared to the Ions from delay. A delay of two days in baling hay could easily cost two hundred dollars due to loss of the hay. The same thing applies to the Ensilage cutting outfit, to the Grist Mill. and, in fact, any kind of machinery. It is the tremendous cost of delay thai counts. We take pleasure in introducing you to some of the Members of our line with the hope that you may form a closer acquaintance with them: The McBee-Lauson Gasoline and Oil Engines; the McBee-Ann Arbor Hay Tress; the McBee-Blizzard Ensilage Cutter; the McBee Cypress Silo; the McBee Crist Mill; the McBee Feed Mill; the McBee Pneumatic water system; the McBee-Edison Storage Battery Lighting Plant ; the McBee Wood Saw. and all of our big line.
