enior CI ass Waldo Emerson Bailey Jackson. Miss. INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION: ENGLISH Our friends see the best in us, and ftp that ver t fact call forth the best from us. She ' s keen, I think. When Waldo says that, you may depend on it ' s being true, for good judgment is one of his strong characteristics. He is gifted with magnetism and amiability, which accounts for his stiong personality, and this personality makes hi s pre-eminent among his fellows. His grace, polished manners, and keen sense of humor make him a soci.il leader. He is a model gentleman, a good writer, a thorough student, and, best of all, a good fellow. Our best wishes, Waldo! May you never know aught but success, and that in good measure! George Rilles. Secretary in ' 18; Dramatic club; Hinds County Club; Class Track, ' 17- ' 1X; So.-ial Editor of the Reflector ; V. M.

So shall you find it, indeed. Pat, as Harry is better known, cast his lot with the Class of 18 in our second year. He is one of the few exceptional men who have completed the required course in three years. His unusual ability lor acquiring the knowledge which some of us have diligently searched for has made him an extraordinary student. We feel confident that his excellent success here is but a foreshadowing of that which is sure to be his in all of his undertakings of the future. Not only has Harry made a remarkable record in his classes, but his happy disposition and congeniality have made him popular and well liked by all who know him. Pat is somewhat of a ladies ' man, and seems to have supreme success in all of his love affairs, as he always wears a smile. The Class of 18 extends him their sincerest wishes for a long and happy life and continued success in any business venture he may make. Lee Guards; First Lieutenant Mississippi Sabres; M. A. S.

)enior CI ass James Phelps Barbour Yazoo City, Miss. ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING have lived long enough to }(non that it is best to £non nothing. Jimmie hails from the balmy delta, where the an seems to breathe of smiles, or at least one would think so upon seeing the congenial manner in which this rosy-cheeked Freshman greets his many friends. Toodles entered school in the fall of 19)4, and since then reveille has been his chief ob- jection to living. After his appointment as Captain of the Machine Gun Company his principal efforts have been devoted to the training of this imaginary unit. Jimmies amiable disposition has caused him to be well liked by all who know him, and his closer associates know him as a good student, a Hi ? friend and a good sport. Wherever he goes, the best wishes of the Class of 18 will always be his. Lee Guards; Vice-President M. A. .S. E. ; Yazoo County Club; Ox Drivers; Mississippi Sabres; President Captains ' Cluli; Captain Machine Gun Co. Robert Houston Bennett mechanical Hattiesburg, Miss. ENGINEERING Charms stride the elie. And merit wins the soul. Bennett is a runt in stature, but his good qualities are in inverse ratio to his size. He is a man who, by his perseverance and endurance during four years of brain-racking toil, delving into the intricacies of science, and plodding through the hidden mysteries of strength of materials, has been crowned with the richest laurels of success. Runt is a jolly, good-natured lad, who takes life easy, and, by his sunny smile, has made a host of friends. He is full of Class 18 spirit, and is a loyal supporter of every class undertaking, a chief characteristic of every true 18 man. He has reached the climax of a noble struggle, and at its successful termination in June, he will bear off his Dip triumphantly, pre- pared to face the trials of life and conquer. A. M. will lose a good student, and the world will gain a nood engineer. Here ' s wishes for a success, old friend, from the Class of ' 18! Vice-President Forrest County Club; Mississippi R. O. B.
