NGINEKRING. 2 LIAS, Biister, Holly, is also C from good, old FVince George. Holly is our hiisiness man. At any time during study hours vou can see him flitting from room to room, either with a bundle of pictures under his arm or a pile of clothes on them. It is the height of his ambi- tion to become a business man. . fter collecting perhaps $15 you can hear him grumbling about the way the bo) ' s pay. You are the most iconoclastic, pseudonymiferous, etc., person I ever knew, is his favorite expression. Al- most any night } ' ou can see him perched ujion the top-mast rafter of our new Mechanical Building ex- pounding t(5 the world at large the principal features of the Maryland .Agriculture College, an institution to which I have so graciously attached my.self for the past four years, is the way he invariably starts out. Holly knows a little about everything, at least he says he does and we have to take his word for it. Hollv says he does not care nuich for feminine beauty, but he has been known to dress up and come down to the chapel for just one dance ; and then , there is a mysterious letter he receives I V quite often and which he claims i from home, but he guards it so closel that we are forced to believe otherwise. Buster is as changeable as the weather. One minute he is the most pessimistic person in the world and the next minute he flies off into a flight of oratory that would put Wm. J. Bryan to shame. We predict a great future for Buster.

James Edwin Haslup, Agriclltlre. I ASLUP, alias Hots is from Li Howard County. He has an abundance of auburn hair hence his name. Hots is studying Ani- mal Husbandry and loves to sit and talk about the qualities of the various animals that pass the Barracks. His principal occupation is going to town and viewing the animals at Bennings. He is quite a reader and is ready to give information upon almost any subject that is being discussed in the English class. Hots is not much of a society man but spends considerable of his spare time in the vicinity of Berwyn. He says he attends church on Sunday there and that is his reason for going in that direction every Sunday. Per- haps he does, but what does he do be- tween church time and twelve o ' clock, the time he usually returns to college? Then again, he visits the Hagerstown Pair each Pall and his friends come back and tell of his prowess with the young ladies of that city. They must be true because his face usually be- comes the color of his hair when he is questioned concerning the truth of these stories. He says he intends to settle down after graduating, on a stock farm somewhere in Maryland. We know that he will have great success in his chosen work, as he is industrious and thoroughly understands the subject of stock raising.

He is an expert on cabbages and intends to settle down on a farm on Eastern Sho ' . and raise them. Queen- ie delights to go to town to the Na- tional. One night he saw the Round Up and suddenly exclaimed, when the Indians attacked the white man : Say, fellow somebody will get killed, and, Man I wouldn ' t like to be in a fight like that. Oueenie ' s highest ambition is to get married and be a manager of a large estate. He often says, Wouldn ' t it be great to be able to sit in an easy chair, smoke a pipe, and have nothing else to do but order others around. ' Well Queenie we wish you success and hope your ambitions will soon bel realized. He takes everything in earn- est and Taus delights to sit and tell him stories. Queenie listens intent- ly until someone laughs and then ex- claims, Say, fellow, you must be kid- fling me.
