' OT- ' OS; Star Member of Senior Basketball Team. S. Creech. strong in character, modest in behavior, reserved in manners, faithful to his friends, shows himself to be a good, hard-working student. In his third .vear he holds out his hand for his degree. Only good things can be said of him. In the moral world he occupies the place of a true layman. During his last year, some unknown ( ?) force seems to have drawn him from the companionship of the boys. He offers his energ - to fight the illiteracy of the State. He is destined to become one of those old-time, seedy school teachers. A. W. DUXN. B.A.. SCOTL. Xi) XECK. X. C. Lets teacli ourselves that honorable stop. •Xot to out-sport discretion.

He will at no dis- tant day become an able member of the Scotland Neck Bar.

Bill has a corner on the wit of his class. His clownish ideas, together with his ability as a medical st;ident. have insured him popularity among the boys. With only three years to his credit he emerges from the medical class with his surgical talent in his hand. He doesn ' t look delicate, yet he rooms in the In- tirmary. His motto is, Give all the statistics you can in society. He will become eminent for his skill- ful operations on dogs and cats. Wit. nerve, beauty I ? ) , and an accurate knowledge of medicine are his possessions. May the fates deal gently with him. WILLIAM RAY GRIFFIN. B.S., M. I!SHVII.I,t:.

Ray thinks he is a natural born doctor, but that dear school, experience, will teach him a different les- con: but. alas — fools will learn in no other. He will, after graduating in medicine, conduct a private sanitarium and hospital; also a cemetery for the final disposition of those who fall victims to his malignant practice.
