Having once heard his voice echoing among the rocks of Storm King as he puts A company through its paces, one never doubts that here is some one who will achieve great- ness later on. lle is as honest and straightforward as a man can be. May he retain his cheerfulness to the end of his life. 56 Qlibester :HTL :Helena NVASHINGTON illrrurh Entered '15, Pi Phi Fraternity. Private Co. A. '15. Corporal Co. A. 'l6. Sergeant Co. A.
