His unexampled economy (?) in managing the financial affairs of the Glee Club warrants for him a place of high standing in the world of finance.

JOHN T. BYRIIM. B.A . KVLAND, N. C. Deep on his front engraven Deliberalion sat and public care. When John first joined the class of ' OS he was at once classed in Professor Sledd ' s favorite category. Xo smile has ever played upon Uis pious face. He will in due time become an able man of the ministry, and live a long life of single wretchedness. JAMES GROVER CARROLL. B.A., SAMPSOX COUXTV. N. C. Whoe ' er excels in what we prize. Appears a hero in our eyes. Vice-President of his Class; Senior Editor of Thl Howler. ' OT- ' OS. In spite of his unconcerned manner of locomotion, and his quivering chin, he is somewhat handsome. His countenance carries an ever ready smile, and his tongue a cheerful word for his fellows. Grover is a good student, and is master of what- ever he undertakes. Though he entered a full Fresh- man. with honor, he finishes in three years, and goes, level-headed, big-hearted, into th; field of tutor- ship, where the little ones look up to be fed. Many more of this type are needed in our schools. May his success be as grand as his prospects prophesy.
