Go ! fair example of untainted youth, Of modest wisdom and pacific truth. ' ' — Pope. Alias Bow. — Born on Sugar- Loaf Mountain, and has never lost this first accession of sweetness. Has always been noted as a good little boy, receiving a book of poems as a reward for good behavior while in the schools of his native town. He is tall and fair, with curly hair, and wears a continual smile upon his face which is not unlike the famed expression of the historical Cheshire cat, but this is only a token of his extremely good nature and sunny disposition, which have made him the most popular man in school. He is noted for love of home, and an unconquerable propensity to pamper the inner man. A great frequenter of the theatre, where he picks up love speeches to try upon the first unsuspecting young lady he meets. Perhaps his greatest claim to fame lies in the fact that he has never been on the sick list in a four- year ' s course at M. A. C. 22

JOSEPH COUDON, JR., 1st Lieutenant Company A AGRICULTURAL. PerryviUe. Chairman Invitation Committee Rossbourg Club and June Ball. Literary Editor Reveille. Then he will talk. Good gods ! how he will talk. ' ' — Lee. An abridgement of all that is pleasant in man. — Goldsmith. The subject of this sketch was born at PerryviUe, Md., on the banks of the Susquehanna, the ninth of September, 1880. He graduated from Cecil High School after being twice suspended for disobeying the most stringent mandate of the school authorities forbidding the boys to walk with the fair sex. But Joe, like Love, laughs at locksmiths. His veracity is never doubted, but on account of his many miraculous adventures many of the boys stand much in awe of him. Joe ' s chief delights are to plague S. P., his room- mate, and to pay extended visits to God ' s own country, Southern Maryland. 23
