His elevation has been rapid-a farmer in Iowa, a railroad fireman in Montana, an engineer in Old Mexico, and, last but not least, an embryo lawyer. He belongs to no organization save Kappa Sigma, but believes in the brotherhood of man. Also believes that Carrie Nation is the consummate genius of this or any other age. He will practice in Kansas. Stratton, A. J. A. J. Stratton hails from Wahoo, where he passed his boyhood days. He is a member of Sigma Chi, Theta Nu Epsilon, and Phi Delta Phi. Although well known about the University he is not familiar to many Freshman Law students, but is always willing to get acquainted. ls well known in athletic circles, having played second base on Sigma Chi baseball team with unusual ability. To his practice of law the faculty look forward with interest. Tillrnan, R. H. Began existence in Clifton City, Cooper county, Mo. He spent his boyhood days along the banks of the Laramie river and later set- tled with his parents at Ragan, Neb. A graduate of the Minden high school, and hopes to be admitted to the bar with the class of '06. While a Missourian by birth he nevertheless possesses the snap and enthusiasm of a true Nebraskan. He declares he is acquainted. with no one in South Carolina. A Maxwell in good standing and also popular in the ranks of the Union society. Van Burgh, James Lloyd. Hails from Hickman, Neb., where he was born. Expects some day to graduate from the University. Says his business is that of a student. Is proud to be a first-baseman on the Sigma Chi baseball team. With the indulgence of Professors Wilson, Pound, and Robbins he hopes to get a degree. He also relies much upon his innocent, infantile appearance, which has already won him membership in Sigma Chi, Vikings, and Phi Delta Phi. Blessings on thee, barefoot boy with cheeks of tan. . Warnke, W. J. The august subject of this biography is a distinguished' citizen of Lincoln, Neb. He hails from St. Louis, and while very modest as to his accomplishments as a vocalist, can sing Under the Anheuser-Busch most effectively. He graduated from the kindergarten of the Crete schools and the Lincoln Normal. He is at present a postal employee, but alleges that he had no connection with the postal frauds. He is a lawyer and an honest man. f 60
