RACHEL JUMPER. Black Hawk, Mississippi. 'Twas a lucky day for us when fate stepped in and decided that Rachel should spend three years in our midst. We have good reason for being proud of her record, for she is a loyal Mississippian, a member of the Y. W. C. A. Cabinet, and is always a star in English Classes, even if S. S. is marked on her themes occa- sionally. With Rachel lessons always come first. Pain before Pleasure, seems to be her motto. At present she is very much interested in Home Science, and her ambition seems to center on a degree from Peabody, but whether or not the solemn looking young man on her dresser agrees to this is not known by her friends. However, Rachel, we wish you success in your Home Science work, let it be in a bungalow or a schoolroom. JOSIE LOTT, Meridian, Mississippi. She doth give her joy to all. Among us we have a girl know to some, as Josie, and to others as Jo-Jo. l-ler mission to all is the same. She goes among us day by day making some sad student happy and spreading her joy among many. This seems to be her motto, Make someone happy today. She has a way of calling to you from one walk to the other with a Hey Willie or a l-lello Jack. It may not sound like much, but if you knew what was in the heart from whence it came, it would mean much to you. ,Iosie brightens the hearts of individuals, and one in particular, if you donit believe it, ask Willie She means business when she says, not in an entreating tone. Willie, bring me that letter right now. After all she 1sn't scolding, she's just playing. That Josie stood high among her College associates is shown by the fact that she was chosen President of the Student Body for session 1918-1919.

After leaving high school, he entered the teaching profession and taught for four years in the rural schools. He came to the College in the fall of 1915. When Uncle Sam called for volunteers to whip the Kaiser. Pugh heard the call and was sent to Camp Pike for training. After the armistice was signed, he came back to the College to finish his work. There are two courses at the Normal that Pugh is especially interested in. One of these is the campus course of which Pugh is star member, the other is the course in drawing. He is so interested in the drawing course that he sometimes spends whole days in his room engaged in making color charts. Pugh has made good in the teaching profession. At present he is Principal of the Carmichael Consolidated School. He is liked by both faculty and students and we predict a great future for him.
