tir ' rjz KENCHEON H. BEST Winona, Miss. School of Electrical Engineering • He doeth all things well. Best is an ex-1913 man, is of excellent habits, quiet, sociable and always in a good humor. 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. E., 1911-1914; Class Football, 1910-1914. FLAVIUS FRANCIS BIBBY Smithville, Miss. Bachelor of Sciexce in Agriculture Be hold, but mil too bold. 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.

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.

Cabinet; President Philotechnic Literary Society; Captain Company E. HARRY CARLTON BELL Starkville, Miss. Bachelor of Sciexce ix Agriculture Active doer, noble liver. Strong to labor, sure to conquer? ' The subject of this sketch originated in the famous city of Starkville. 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.

ALLEN THOMAS BLYTHE Natchez, Miss. Sciioot, of Civil Engineering A wee bit of a man was he. 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.

Senoor. or [ndusthial Education Mail we neve) ' murmur without a cause, And never have cause to murmur. ' ' Langston is always a quiet fellow in the section room, but elsewhere he is always there for the good time. 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.
