PHILEMON HOADLEY ttHe that lmtlz knowledge sparetlz hi1 wordsfteOld Testament. Montelair Academy, iZO; Forum, ,20. F silence were golden we,d have a second King lVIidas around school before we knew it. Phil dropped in on us around Christmas time and immediately became one of the bunch. It was not long before he had set his marks as a student ,Way up near the top and he continues to keep up the good work. The Forum was fortunate enough to secure his services almost as soon as he had arrived and ever since he has graced one of the front row chairs at every meeting, providing the younger members with an excellent example of dignity and self-control. Ht takes a lot of self-control to listen to some of the iiblurb- blingsfii As one of the members of the first period English class he is Mr. Collingeis ray of light. Sad are the days when Phil is absent. It has also been rumored about that as soon as the field is in shape weire going to see a real baH-player making things hum. Best 0, luck, Phil, on the trail we,ve all begun together.

M. R. HAMILTON '7 said in my haste, All men are liarx. aOld Testament. Montclair Academy, 17320; Forum, l17-l20; 3rd Basketball Team, ,17. hcl DONlT believe it, Major. Youlve got to show me? Yes it is our doubting member, Hamilton, who refuses to accept anything for granted. It is a good thing that Hamls time is pretty well taken up with his studies or else he would be continually racking his brains to discover the why and wherefores of all those theories which the rest of us believe When told upon good authority. Whether this attitude of UFm from Missouri,, will get him anywhere in the end, we are not sure, but the fact remains that it does not prevent him from making the Honor Roll. Hamls taste for arguing early led him to join the Forum as a place in which to further express his ideas Hpro and licon on subjects. We confess that the only thing that keeps us alive throughout the six long, weary periods of the morning is the expecta- tion of hearing Ham,s soft and modulated Ul voice ringing at noon through the assembly hall as he daily reads reports. One of the mysterious happen- ings in Hamls life is that he always disappears after reading reports and is next seen at the Washington Restaurant with Kleinhans. How and when he gets there is quite beyond us to tell. We wish you all success in business.

M. REESE HUTCHISON, JR. 0f good natural party, and of a liberal edurationWeCervantes. Montclair Academy, 14320; Class Swimming Team, y16318; Class Relay Team, ,17; Class Hat Committee, 15316; Summa Cum Laude, i17,'20; Class Bas- ketball Team, 18; Kodak Klub, y16319; Dramatic Club, ,17320; Rifle Club, ,17- ,18; Corporal 1V1.

R EESE has been coming to school from Llewellyn Park now for a long time and in 1917 he jumped ahead one year and came into our ranks. This leads to the fact that hHutch is one of the honor roll stand bys and is a member of the most exclusive and envied A11 Au Club. The Forum and Dramatic Club can testify to the extent of his eloquence, While the diHicult position of advertising manager of YE YEARE BOOKE has been handled with great skill and success by our eHicient friend. However, do not get the impression that he is a grind, for HHutchh has been a mainstay of the swimming team for two years now and his skill in managing anything from Fords upward is well known. It has been said he was not born With the traditional silver spoon in his mouth, but with a steer- insr wheel instead, and one trip at night with him over the Paterson turnpike is enough to cure any nervousness felt by the accompanying person, for the victim Will have no nerves left after it is over ithe author knows whereof he speakethL tiHutch expects Cornell to be his next stopping place and we all wish him as smooth and successful a ride through college as his one here has been. 21
