DANIEL E.. HARDIE MIAMI, FLA. Formed on the good old plan, A true and brave and downright honest man. Portier Literary Society '23-'24-'25g Mendel Club '23-'24-'25g Golf Club '23-'24g S0- dalityg Treasurer '24-'25, Storekeeper '24-'253 Football '23-'24g C. S. M. C. '24-'25, Omicron Sigma. Miami, Florida, claims Dan as one of her citizens. Dan was born there on the seventh day of February, 1905. But Spring Hill has a strong claim on him, for here he has spent the best part of his youth. He entered Spring Hill way back in those days of '17, and he holds the record of being the oldest boarder in years of constant attendance in the class of '25. Although Dan was the lightest center on a Southern football team, he was also one of the best, and he has learned to perfection that never-say-die spirit. He was one of the main factors in Spring Hill's successful season of '24, and we are certain that if he carries that same spirit into the medical profession that he carried into foot- ball games, he will some day be one of the leading doctors in the South. Dan is a real Spring Hill man. I-IILAIRE. J. LAVIGNE SHREVEPORT, LA. Of soul sincere, In action faithful and in honor clear. Portier Literary Society '23-'2-1-'25g Mendel Biological Society '23-'24-'25, Sodality '24-'25g C. S. M. C. '24-'25, Advertising Manager of the Annual '25, Hilaire was born in Shreveport, La., on the sixteenth day of November, 1903, and entered Spring Hill as a freshman in 1921 to get his A.B. degree. Since then he has been prominent in all lines of endeavor. Frenchy has worked hard during his college career, and has also gained the friendship and esteem of all by his good nature and sincerity. We all hate to see him leave, but college days do not last forever. Hilaire hopes to continue his education and to enter the engineering field, and, to be sure, wherever he may go, he will undoubtedly be successful and well liked. With his success will come credit to his alma mater, and the world will have to acknowledge and pay tribute and honor to another great Springhillian.

, .... ..... -.., HAROLD CHRISTOPHER DIETLEIN NEW IBERIA, LA. W'e grant that Dietlein had much wit, And was not shy in using it. Sodality '21-'23-'23-'24-'25g C. S. M. C. '24-'25g Omicron Sigmag Football Var- sity '23-'2-1. 'tDiit says that there are three great cities in this country of ours: New York, New Orleans and New Iberia. He was born in the last named' on the first day of No- vember, in the year 1905. We foretell that some day New Iberia will declare this date a legal holiday, for we feel certain that Dit' will become its leading citizen. Harold entered his alma mater while still a little boy, in September, 1918, as a member of the Second High Class. Since then he has been one of our foremost enter- tainers, and when he left for a short period in 1924, Spring Hill did not seem like the same old place. 9 Dit is also a student and an athlete, though he believes in the old proverb, Work like a man, but don't be worked to death. He has not informed us as to what profession he intends to enter, but his is the type that is bound to succeed, and it is certain that he, in his good fortune will never forget old Spring Hill, where he spent so many years.

CHARLES A. MARSTON, JR. MOBILE, ALA. As constant as the Northern Star. Band '20-'21, Golf Club '22-'23, Sodality '24-'25, C. S. M. C. '24-'25, Baseball 23-'24-'25. Chip' entered Spring Hill in Second High in September, 1918. Graduating in 1921 from Spring Hill High, he entered upon the four-year course leading to an A.B. degree. He was born on March 16, 1904. From the first day he attended class at Spring Hill, Chip has always been found a true Springhillian. Trying out every year for the baseball team with a will- ingness such as is seldom seen, he landed the position of regular shortstop for the 1925 season. Not in athletics alone has Chip done well, he is a good student, besides being a good baseball player. Keep up the good work, Chip, and you will always find the boys of your class and the ones of the next three years pulling for you.

Augusta, Georgia, has the honor of being the birthplace of Hugh, and the date of this occasion was the twenty-fifth of February, 1903. He is another of Spring Hill's old'-timers, for he entered here in 1918, while in Second High, and graduated from the High School in 1921. Hugh holds the distinction of being the first President of the Spring Hill Stu- dent Council, and this office he has discharged with the same attention and ability that characterizes all his activities. As Editor-in-Chief of both The Springhillian and The Annual, he has been the main factor in their success through his diligence and hard work. He has always been willing to sacrifice his own time for the good of his school.
