David A. Jenkins, wIhp lield ihr ..liir.. .,j Statr ' i-|r;«,Min ' r of North Carohna from 1868 to 1877. Born D m-ciiiI. t M. IMII, iipuii ;i l;iini in i;ist on County, young Jenkins was given the best educ;ition ..nd |iriin:il training the institutions of his native State could provide. In 1873 ilic !:iniily removed to Charlotte. During the school ye ar, 1876-7, young Mr. Jenkins was a student in the CaroUna Military Institute in Charlotte. In 1S77, tlie family left Charlotte and .settled in Gastonia; the young man ' s studies were continued in institutions near his new home and itiiin a couple of years he was prepared for entrance to Wake Forest College. In this institution he pursued a full course and graduated in 1S83. During his career at College, Mr. Jenkins gained much reputation as a speaker; at the age of seventeen years, his associates recognized him as a leader in debate by electing him to represent them as their first debater at the joint anniversary celebration held by the two college associations, which maintained a friendly rivalry. After completing his general studies, Mr. Jenkins accepted a jiosition as Assistant Post- master at Charlotte; in this office he remained from 1883 to 1885; he then taught school for about a year. In 1886 his father died and left a very substantial inheritance to the son. In 1SS7 he began his career as a banker in Gastonia, where he entered into a partnership wliich was known as ( ' raiji tt Jenkins; tlirei- years later this firm was succeeded by the First Nation- al Hank of laslonia, in whirl. Mr. Jenkins was i-Iected to the cashiership. In 1894 he removed to A ilniiny;lon, and there assisted to form the National Bank of Wilmington; in tliis institution !ie was chosen to fill the cashier ' s office, but after serving in that capacity for a few months, he re imi((l tlie place in order to return to Gastonia and again enter the First National Bank as its IVesident. His election occurred on January 1, 1895, and since that time he has remained at tlie head of the institution. The bank ' s capital is $100, 000; its surplus and undivided profits arc about $50,000; and its deposits average nearly a half milUon. Mr. Jenkins has invested largely in the cotton manufacturing industries; he is President of the Flint Manufacturing Company of Gastonia, and is extensively interested as a stockholder in a number of other similar establish- ments there and elsewhere, being Vice-President of the Arlington Cotton Mills, the Trenton Cotton Mills, the Gray Manufacturing Company, and the Holland Manufacturing Company, of Gastonia. Mr. Jenkins has always been an ardent Republican; he is one of the recognized leadi-rs of the party in his section. In 1892 he was elected Delegate from the Eighth District of Nortli (. ' aro- lina to the National liei ' ul.liian Convention in Minneapolis. Under Presi letii ILiiri-nn, Mr. Jenkins was made Postmaster at Gastonia, and he occupied the office from iss ' j in is ' .i:;; President McKinley reappointed him in 1898. Mr. Jenkins is a member of the Baptist Churcli. He is zealous in the work of his denomi- nation and strong in his convictions. Though differing in his political doctrines from a great numlier of his most intimate friends, his courage, honesty and fairness compel their confidence and iespeet . As a banker, he is regarded as one of the best informed officers in the Carolinas. Mr. Jenkins is President of the American National Bank, Asheville, N. C; the First National Bank, Gastonia, N. C; the Bank of Dallas, Dallas, N. C. ; and the Bank of Belmont, Belmont, N. C. He is a director of the First National Bank, Kings Mountain, N. C, and of the Gaston Loan and Trust Co., Gastonia, N. C. On February 28, 1911, he was elected President of the North Carolina Interurban Railway, the proposed electric railway from Gastonia to Ashe- ville.

C. Men oj few words are best men This is the silent man of the graduating Cla.ss. He is seldom heard, but goes his way doing his duty faitlifully. During his College course he has not sought honors, preferring rather to perform his tasks and let others chase them. Daniel, as he is often called, is quiet and unobtrusive, but he always satisfies his requirements and satisfies them well. Athletics have not claimed his attention, but in the gymnasium he is a wonder, being able to perform the stunts to perfection. As to his life work, he is not decided, but we think he will sail into business later. JAMES CLAXTOX BRETT, A.B., Eu. Union, N. C. He wears the rose of youth upon him.

Although one of the youngest men, he is one of the brightest. He not only asks for his A.B. degree for four years ' work, but also an A.M. Always happy, seldom complaining, Dea- rir lias made things lively on the campus and the ball diamond. In athletics he has taken a leading part, and his place on the ' Varsity Baseball Team could have been filled by none other than he. In society lie has seldom been heard, and says: What ' s the good of society, anyway? At graduation Brett will join the United Sttitcs ecological Survey, but we Ix lievo later 111 ' will enter business. XEKDHAM BRYAXT HKOUCHTOX, Jr., A.U.. Ki-.

In College, Buck has identified himself with athletics and is an ardent supporter of them. He had dreams of wearing a mono- gram, hut had to be content with the position of full-back on the Senior Team. He conies from a family which has long Ijeen devoted to his Alma Mater, and he keeps up this devotion.

Little Buck looks too timid to be a pill roller, but his timidity is not that kind characterized by effeminacy or profligacy. His is a sympathetic countenance, a mirror of a harmonious nature; sunshine lurks under- neath and beams from his soul through his two brown eyes. Nature has blessed him with more than an external expressive appear- ance, she has taught him that the proper study of mankind is man, and in consequence thereof he is studying medicine, the next thing to man, and believes in old Izaak Wal- ton ' s, Look to your health; and if you have it, praise God, and value it next to a good conscience. Buck is all right. Every student in school will sanction it. G. C. BUCK, A.B., Phi. Grime.sl. nd. X. C.

His countenance was never known to fool you. He and melancholy have never met. His smiles are spontaneous as waves are on the sea; his laughter, a bubble and tinkle of sincerity; his quick responses never unnatural or pedantic. His full chest and ruddy cheeks proclaim his admirable physique, and his not too prominent eyes bespeak his love of action. These, together with an unblemished record in College give you a picture of what belongs to a noble man, unhampered by eccentricities and deformities. If truth, honesty and good behaviour have anything to do with a man ' s success, then here is word to his friends that Buck is on the right road. JOHN HEXRY BURNETT, LL.B., Eu. BURGAW, N.

Quelah comes up from the sandy plains of Eastern Carolina. He joined the Class in ' OS, and stands in line for his degree. Of himself he says: ' I ' m long, lean, lazy and loving — fond of baseball and magazines and we will not contest the matter. Though interested in athletics, he has n( let this interfere mth his studies, in which he has made an excellent showing. As a mem- ber of the ' Varsity Baseball Team, Quelah ' made himself essential. He still has a thirst for the waters of the Pierian Spring and will return to College next year to take his A.M. JOHN M. CHEEK, A.B., Phi. Durham, X. C.

Though his home is where the famous smok- ing tobacco is manufactured, he does not patronize the business. If he did, then that clear countenance and firm look would not be there! If he were a slave to any passion you would not hear of him actively engaging in the various phases of College life — excellent singer, worthy of trust and fideUty, left-handed ball- player, a good orator, and maker of rhyme. What a combination! And besides all this, Ills artful diplomacy and blandness he has decided to use in the practice of law. If what four hundred boys consider a gentleman may be accepted — and the ladies seem to have long known it — then John is one, not one by halves, but wholly, a real gentleman!

This modest, unassuming youth is well known in College circles. We call liim Master because he comes to claim that degree. His weighty knowledge of classic lore he displays in finest modern terms. Thoroughly practical and sensible is this i;illant son from the bluegrass fields of Ken- tucky. There is a charm about him rivals lli;il of the belles of liis native State, making liiiM the center of attraction in all circles. Hi ' sides ail these faculties and charms, he is a well rounded man because he possesses a mag- iianiinous heart warmed with kindness and friendship towards his fellow men.

He entered College before the present Class came, but was out two years, n ' tiirning to ( ' ( lloge in the Fall of 190! . Copple stands in the ft)n ' frunt of his Class as to scholarship, and few rival him in dih- gence. Always busy, never idle, yet he will take a few minutes to laugh with the boys. He has identified himself with cvciy worthy cause in College. He is an admirer of the fair sex and has answered the call of Meredith many a time. After graduation he wil! enter the business world, an.l we an- roTihdcnt that honor, success and fortune will he his. FOrXTAIX F. COX, B.S., Phi. WlXTERVILLE, X. C.

Wherever he goes he soon is christened as ' Old Big Cox by the boys. The words Old and Big, how- ever, in this case have a different meaning: the one signifies precocity, the other magnanimity as well as enormity. He Ls authoritative in an acceptable way, has executive ability, is confiding almost to ex- travagance, not sting ' except with his time, and has enough College spirit to last him until he is as old as Methuselah. He can hit the line in a close game of ball like a GalUc battering ram against a wall. He is too sensible and gentlemanly to stir up anger — he colludes with Cupid though — but when it comes to fisticuff, he is champion! His presence, his voice, his looks, they are persuasive! He stands for the right in evenr-thing, is honest, truthful, and that is why we are all his friends. JAMES M. DAVIS. B.S.. Er. HiDDENITE, X. C. Thou hast the fatal gift ofbeauly.

Jimmie bears the distinction of being the handsomest man in his Class. His cheeks, soft and fair and dehcately blushing, would betoken the innocence of a babv. In the Fall of 1907 he blew into Wake For- est and entered the Class of 1911. Jimmie has been a hard worker and his class standing is an e idence of it. In athletics he has plaj ' ed his part on the Track Team. As Manager, he infused new s pirit into the organization and brought it to the front in College athletics. Xaturally, Jimmie is a ladies ' man. As a breaker of hearts he has no equal, and he and Cupid have frequent battles. Deep down in his soul he has heard the call of the suffering sick, and he will go on to pre- pare himself to be a full-fledged M.D. We predict for him a ' ' good countrj ' field. J.

Since arriving, he has distinguished himself because of his capacity for annihilai iiiK ignorance. His College career is marked hv no slorms, but it is one con- tinued trend u]iwards. He has a great capac- ity for friendship — We meet him like a pleasant thought, when such are wanted. He is a jolly good fellow, is never sad, but smiles like the sunshine in the land whence he came. Judging from his talk, we predict that he will go back to his native State since there is a lone flower there which in ' ites him. It makes no difference where he goes, he will succeed, for that is his nature, and nature will have its way. JAMES YATKS HAMKICK, B.S., Eu. Shelby, N.

He sought not to attain the frivolous lnjnors of College life, or to swim the muddy waters of politics. But in the field of poli- tics he might have attained honors, for he is an expert originator of schemes. His practical thinking brain will serve to place him among the brightest gems that help to make the weak happy and strong. ECTOR AUGUSTUS HAHRILL, A.B., Eu. Shelby, N. C.

The Class of 1911 has men of various tem- peraments, but as for a hard working fellow, it has none that surpasses Harrill. It may be truly said that College life has been stren- uous for him. Not a fellow who never smiles, but one who takes part in most of the activities of College, and yet does not allow anything to swerve him from his aims. A man with an iron will, who has kept up the fight in face of difficulties. In society, he has always played his part with credit, ever ready to do and dare for the the good of the order. The law has beckoned to him and he will continue his studies further before he jumps off the commencement platform into the sea of Hfe.

There is more irtue in the struggle than in cromi or laurels. They are mere symljols and only say Here we are, never sajnng how they came. He has been faithful, diligent, aspiring only to be commendably dutiful and worthy of every word of praise. Like Henry Clay, he would rather be right than president. Like Bulwer-Lytton, he is most earnest in belie ' ing that we are born for a higher destiny than that of earth; there is a realm where the rainbow never fades, where the stars will be spread before us like islands that slumber on the ocean, and where the beings that pass before us like shadows will stay in our presence forever. This quotation fits him; he is a minister; his language is similar to this passage, and his steady flow of hard facts make you tliink of Goethe when he said: He who ' s firm in will moulds the world to himself, and you go away declaring there is one man not lost in the maze of inconsistency.

His very name entitles him to first rank among his fellows. L ' pon entering College in 1907 he took his place in line and during his four years stay he has forged to the front in College life. That he is ambitious doth appear in his list of honors. He came to Wake Forest with the intention of making a name for himself, and he has succeeded. A speaker of no mean abiUty, and as a debater no question has ever arisen that he has not thoroughly answered to the complete satisfaction of all, himself included. Oh, no, he is not conceited (?).

He has burned the midnight oil, and his grades testify to it; yet he left his tasks long enough to uphold his Class banner in football in both his Freshman and Senior years. Big Sullivan is a sticker, a plodder with a bull dog tenacity that never gives up until he has accomplished his task. A more faith- ful man on classes is not to be found in Col- lege.

When he hfts his voice it sounds as if to praise, and yet it bears the tenor of firm deci- sion and command.

This modest youth came from Asheville into our midst three years ago. If he is the last Senior on the list- — he is a Mohican. The fact that he has gained no signal honors while here is no indication that he has not the ability, for he has done well in his spliero and has not sought to push himself upon the students. He is one of the most deserving of our Class. From his voice, you would conclude that he is a lad, but from his work on the gridiron for the Senior Class, you must give him his rightful place among the husky boys. His life work is yet uncertain. Since he is the Prophet of the Class, we look to him for a prediction.

Thither goes Asa P. every Sunday to lecture on how to watch the trains pass and on how to make hair grow on bald heads. Rev. Low-ell Haynes is pastor of Baltimore ' s largest church. His success in life is mainlj- due to the imitation of his former language professor ' s jjersonal ap- pearance. Because of the close relation existing Ijctween J. B.

The Pastoral ' isitor continues to l)e issuetl montlily, free of charge, to the Wake Forest Ministerial Class. It has now a circulation of a million and a half — ne.xt to that of the Ladies ' Home Journal. After this increased circulation, a new man was needed as foreman, and the Editor-in-Chief was exceedingly fortunate in securing the person of N. B. Broughton, Jr. Ector Harrill is at the head of the Saturday Evening Post ' s story department. Occasionally when good stories become scarce, he himself contributes to the Post ' s columns. Harrill ' s hobby is stories in which there are strange, odd characters. For the April Fool Number he wanted an especially rare character and he was somewhat at a loss to know what character to use. Finally he remembered that Professor Judson Dunbar Ives was at the head of the department of Biology of the University of Pennsylvania, so he went over to study the Pro- fessor ' s character. Harrill was well jileased with the rare notes he had been 51 able to take and he foresaw that he would have a tiptop story. It so happened, that the Professor was hunting for a rare specimen for laboratory experiments and I am told that he too was well pleased with observations made by his guest. Coca Cola Castello is a telegrapher of mediocrity on the Raleigh and South- port Railroad. Recently all the transmitters on that line failed to work and it was later discovered that it was all caused by Castello having a bad case of the grouches. Even the President of the Company is compelled to converse with him through iron bars. A newspaper in a certain North Carolina town offered a prizt- uf twenty-five dollars in a voting contest to that man who thought himself the purest and most upright in North Carolina. As soon as the contest was made public, Jack Ellis and R. L. Lennon packed their suit cases and started at once for that town. After the contest had ended, the official vote showed that Ellis and Lennon tied for first place. Neither was willing for the other to have the prize, nor were they willing to divide it. Finally it was agreed to give the prize to the one who had made the lowest grade on the first Psychology quiz given at Wake Forest. Under this agreement, each one felt sure of winning. An examination of the Bursar ' s old records showed Lennon ' s grade to be 23 and Ellis ' s 13. Tlie jirize was awarded to Ellis. Mr. Gerald W. Johnson, for eleven years the beloved editor of the Yellow Jacket has recently brought out all the rival dailies in the city of Thomasville. He has combined the publications and the anudgainated dailies will henceforth be called The Hornet ' s Nest. The famous Alchohol Scandal has created ciuite a stir in medical circles. The Elixir Company is composed of Dr. Allen, Dr. Hamrick and Dr. Rodgers. It seems that these doctors were trying a get-rich-quick scheme, but in their haste for the yellow metal, they were checked by the United States ' Chief Chemist, Huntley, who had analyzed their patent medicine and found it contained Of) and 99 hundredths per cent alcohol. The officers of the company wrre indicted on a charge of misrepresentation. The ease was fought through the lower courts, and was carried to the Supreme Court, where His Honor, Chief Justice Vinson, presided in a most dignified manner. Attorney -General Burnett made a fine hair-splitting argument for the government, but his speech was almost totally eclipsed by the s|ieech of the attorney for the defense — the Right Honorable Wheeler Martin, formerly candidate for President of the United States on the Prohiliition ticket. Dr. Davis and Dr. Buchanan continue to run successfully, in Western North Carohna, their world-famous Sanitarium. A visitor in those parts recently counted two thousand seven hundred and fifty-nine ladies on the lawn. After the requirements of the English course in Wake Forest (. ' (jllege were raised, Mr. Julius Ciesar Smith lost his position as Assistant in this Department. He was, however, able to secure a position in the Wake Forest High School, and after eleven years of faithful service in this capacity, he was made its principal. Another member of the Class of 1911 has distinguished himself. J. Bois Ver- non has done his best to lead the simple life. It was chiefly because he had never done any one any harm that he was elected for two terms to the lower House in the State Legislature. Henry A. Wallin was lately defeated for the position of Constable in Shorting Laurel To v lship. After this unfortunate check in his bright career he allowed his hair to grow long and curly and then announced himself on the Suffragette ticket for President of the United States. He is expected to poll a large vote in Utah. Mr. Thomas J. Osljorne is President of the International Jokers Club. The object of this club is to humiliate young doctors. Wherever Mr. Osborne finds a young doctor, he pretends to commit suicide. While no accurate accounts of his numerous deaths have been kept, it is certain that no less than 999 times has he been pronounced dead by young doctors. The baseball diamond of Chicken Roost continues to be ornamented by the famous southpaw, G. C. Buck. By special request, unle.ss the game is close. Buck mil be allowed to pitch one inning in the Fourth of July Game, when Chicken Roost meets its old rival. Possum Hollow. It was recently noticeil in a Philadelphia paper that S. C. Garrison had won the first prize for silence in the last Convention for Quaker Clergymen. Recently Mr. J. Powell Tucker has had the most distressing experience. He falls in love with every girl he meets but never yet has he prevailed upon any to enter seriously into the matter. The reason for this failure on his part, I am told by one of his former acquaintances, is that he insists, as his first step in love making, she must listen to him repeat his famous oration — America as a World Power. It grieves us to learn that Mr. G. L. Bailes ' health has been failing and that he has been compelled to make frequent visits to the Seashore. In the North Carolina Baptist State Convention of 1923, Rev. J. Ben EUer made an excellent plea for the abandonment of the compulsory chapel services at Wake Forest College. The Wake Forest Students have ordered ten thousand copies of the speech for the benefit of the Faculty. The F. F. Cox Drug Company has secured the valuable services of W. G. Moore, who is now acting as traveling salesman. By the exercise of his special oratorical powers Moore was the first year enabled to sell nineteen dollars worth of the company ' s medicine. The fiery Georgia Congressman, Claudius Temple Murchison, has cut quite a figure in Washington ' s social circles. His great affection for the President ' s daugh- ter has been noticed by many of his friends and it may be that more than a mere friendship exists between them. T. A.

He had exceetlingly bright prospects for a glorious future, but he was unexpectedly called to another world. He was on a camping party in the Rocky Mountains and death was causi-d by over eating. With very simple services his friends buried his body in the woods. Several years later a prospector traveled through those regions. It so h,ip]iened that he made an excavation into McBrayer ' s grave and this resulted in aiL astonishing discovery. If brass were an element the ]irospector would have thought that he had discovered a brass mine. In conversation with a dashing Northern girl, Mr. Charles H.

The Senior year Is but a fear That flees as we advance. i toiy of tijE junior Clagg The Class of 1912 entered College with one hundred and twenty-five Fresh- men. We came marching up the campus with a lordly air, but the first night gave us different dreams and visions. We heard the shrill cries of the Sophs on a raid for Newish, and a few minutes later were invited to join in the war-dance. We succeedetl in outwitting the Sophs and had our first Class meeting, and by out- fighting them, we had our Class picture made. Wr unt out a very good basket and baseball team. Having passed through the j(i s uf our Xewi.-ih year and a pleasant vacation, we again arrived on the Hill as Sophomores, eighty strong. This was the Renai.ssance for us. Soon we got ourselves in fine shape for work, and had an excellent basketball team. The first game was jilayed with the .Juniors, which resulted in a tie. This was played off later, tlic .Juniors winning the ( ' liamiiionship. However, Olive, Beam, H. Cox, Buie and Mc( ' utcheon did much to make tlie Class proud of them. Then came baseball. The first game was between the .luniors and Sophs; we won the victory easily. Then came the game with the Seniors for tlie inter-class Championship in which the Seniors won. Our men showed up finely, and no doubt would have won easily but fur the condition of our pitcher ' s arm. Aside from the ordinary duties of ( ollege life, we contributed a full share to the ' Varsity — some of the stars were mainly Beam, H., Castello, Bagwell, Highsmith, Coughenour, Savage. Also in the Literary life of the College, we did not fall short, for there are Wheeler, Hilliard, Sharp, Ferguson, Beam, G., Edgerton. and iiumy others. We might mention that the Class took a stand against hazing. This evil usually fails because of lack of support from the Sophomore Class. But our Class took pride in trying to place the College spirit above this barbarous habit now carried on in too many of our American Colleges. When the Fall of 1910 came around sixty members answered to the mil rail. Some becoming dissatisfied had joined the Senior Class, and others failed to sluiw up, but the noble sixty had the stuff and started things ofT lively. lM)(itliall was tlie first te.st of our strength. The team did fine W(jrk under Coach Hetts. Now the great game with the Seniors— the Seniors being the strongest team in College. The game started off with little gain on either side, the ball played near the center, but in the last of the second half, the Seniors by jHitting up a plucky fight got the ball in our territory and in the meantime Wright kicked a goal. When the game was called it stood three to nothing in favor of the Seniors. Our not winning the ( ' ham- pionship is no reproach when one considers the fact we have fm-uislinl tar niore than our quota of stars to the ' Varsity. Our basketball team developed nicely and sdon showed that we had the fastest team in College. The first game was played with the Sophs, which was an easy victory for us. The Newish lias develojied an unusually good team and had suc- ceeded in winning over the Seiiidrs. In the c(iiilest for inter-class ( ■lianipidusliip our team was too mucli for the Xewisli and we took the cup by the score of 18 to 16. The representatives were mainly Beam brothers, Olive, Sherrill, Buie anfi f ' onrad. In baseball and track we expect to repeat the success whicli we had in liasket- ball. The history of the Class for 1912 has been one of continuous good feeling and fellowship, and another step towards making the spirit premanent, not only in our omi Class but in classes to follow us, was instituting the custom of having a Junior Banquet. When we think uf this Class history we ilo not claim to be the best, but we do claim to measure up fully to any Class that had gone before us. We have furnished as large a quota of Titers, athletes, scholars and debaters as any preceding Class. As to the Future, we e.xpect to muster at least seventy-five veterans to face the final charge. Beyond that — ??? Hl.STORI. N. Junior Clagg ropfjecj Realizing the iinportance of antl my inconipeteiiey to a true prophecy of the Junior Class of ' 10- ' 11 , I began to seek relialjle sources for aid. First, I applied to the students of the College for information, thinking perhaps that they hail seen more of, and could tell me more about, their felhjw students than anyone else. Not a prophet was to be found among them. Next. I went to the Faculty of the College, feeling sure that our Professors had foreseen all our abilities and possibilities, and that they would assist me greatly in the prophecy. But, like Columbus in his early struggles, I was turned away from the throne of grace; and, persisting like Columbus, not being tlaunted by tlisappointments, I went to the GjTJsy Fortune TcUcr who, although she attempted the prophecy, seemed only to lie guessing. Finally, I decided tliat the only place from which I iiiinht jinirure a true proph- ecy was in the mountains among the witches and people like ( ' iicc, endowed with magical powers. Having decided upon this course, I set out on foot to see what virtues of prophecy there were in the mountains. I traveled for ten days through mountains and valleys, some of which reminded me of the stories of Slee]iy Hollow and Rip ' an Winkle. On the evening of the tenth day, I came to an immense cliff, on tlie lower side of which was a large aperture which seemed to lie used as a doorway to the interior. Having decided to spend the night in this cavein, I proceeded to make a IVw inves- tigations as to its occupants, and as to the possiliility of spending a ijcaceful night perhaps in the home of some wild animal. But! T i my surprise and horror, a wierd looking old woman apijroached the doorway fi-oni within. At her ref[uest, I explained my liusincss and also implored her a ssistance. She informed me that telling fortunes and rendering prophecies hail been her vocation for many years, and that she would gladly inform nie. I gave lii ' r a list of the names of the Class, and told her that I should like to know what each fellow would be doing ten years hence. The old woman retirctl to one of her apartments in the cavern. Presently she returned with her mysterious glass. This glass resembled a field glass, only it was cased u]i like a large kodak. She gave the glass to me and said: Behold, the interesting prophei ' y of one of your classes! Eagerly, I took the glass and applied my prophetic eyes to the most interesting moving picture I had ever seen. The first thing I saw was the introduction to the pii ' tnre. It read as follows. Three cheers for Wake Forest College. See the actual life of one of her classes illustrated. Now the wheels began to hum and the picture to nmve. The first man I saw was Jim Byrum walking along a shady lane with a cane in his hanil. I thought to mvself that the old lady had arranged us in chronological order and had lii ' gun with the oldest man in the class. Xow Mr. Bryum happened upon some little girls jilaying on the lawn. Byrum dropiinl liis cane and began to play. . s the scene moved on, another appeared; I saw street cars, elevated railroads, and a machine with this inscription on the side. The New York Lightning Express. The sky scrapers now attracted u y attention, but suddenly I looked down at the crowded streets and recognized one of my old classmates, Bruce Jones, hustling along the street with a doctor ' s satchel in his hand. He darted into a music store, and after striking a few chords on a piano, hastened out again. He soon came to a large building on which was the sign: Jones ' Private Sanitary Pressing Cluii. The picture continued to move along the busy streets where I saw several of our boys. I noticed that Edgerton and Crane were in the wholesale magazine busi- ness; Edwards and Conrad were professors of Chemistry and English at Columbia University; Ferguson w-as engaged in a classical boot-blacking business, and Wat- kins w-as captain of a football team there. The most interesting of the scenes at New York was the Wake Forest Fair. All the classes that have gone from Wake Forest, — I mean those classes that have any living representatives, — had come together for the purpose of displaying what each class had accomplished. Each class had excelled in something. The oldest class representative excelled in accomplishing the ripest old age. But what I was con- cerned most about was the Class to which I belonged. It was a class of inventions and all the members were collected around the flying machine which Huggins and Scruggs had invented. Here I used my imagination a little by considering myself one of the group. I walked up to examine that beautiful, I might say wonderful, traveling apparatus. J. C. Jones, Wall, A. J. Harris and Olive werf running here and there trying to get the Scrugg.s-Huggins machine to move, but in vain. Some of us remembered how Trueblood accidently had made the old Society clock wake up, and he was asked to try his luck in getting the machine to move. As the machine seemed to be sleeping right soundly, I began to talk with some of the lioys. My friend, T. Sloan, was near by, and I asked him if he remembered anything about Math. II. He assured me that he remembered a few things very distinctly about it, one of which was getting it off. At this juncture, the machine began to quiver, and Bagwell exclaimed, All aboard, boys, or yuu will be fined one dollar for being absent. The Beam brothers were requested to guitle the machine while making the flight. Buie, Allen, R. E. Powell and Mr. Henry gave the machine a slight push, and off if went. Now, I realized that I was only looking at a moving picture, as I saw the flying machine make its successful flight. From New York, the scene kept changing through countrj ' , village, town and city. I saw beautiful mountains and valleys along broad rivers. The scenery was beautiful. Now and then I could see a Wake Forest man at his country home, at his law office, and behind the plow. At Forestville I saw Eddinger making a swing for some little girls. He tested its strength by apjilying his weight. As it did not break with him. I saw him nod his head as if to say that he thought it would hold them up all right. The scene finally brought me back to Wake Forest. This was the most inter- esting scene of all. I saw the stately arch at the entrance of the cam]5us; I saw the campus with its magnolias and flowers in full liluiini, witli its verdant grass and beautiful walks — all this was a perfect picture The old liuildings now attracted my attention, but more especial!} ' the new dormitory with its towering grandeur. In front of this building, I saw Robertson writing on the bulletin board, I will master this Trig, and consequently get my dip. I saw Professor Green loitering around the little chapel. O ' Brian had succeeded himself as manager of the Glee Club. He marched his classes through all the walks on the campus in order that they might keep good time. I did not see any of the other boys of Wake Forest, and when I had seen Faculty Avenue, the picture became a blank. I looked up from the mysterious glass and saw that I was still in front of the cliff. I thanked the old lady very kindly for assistance, and bade her a pleasant goodljye. . r— ... ., ,, M mm ;g opf)omorf Class ©fficfrS A.J. HuTCHlNs Prcxiilent H. O. Herring Vice-President H. F.

Out in the world fur utruy. op!)omore Class Historp Without the historian ' s gift, I can not mention all the epoch making events which deserve mention here. Our record is full, yea, crowded with achievements, and to record them all would require the pen of a Thucydides. The historian would like to say, however, that in reaching our present place of vantage, we have had a two-fold aim; first, we have tried to get into our system some of that impalpable stuff called knowledge. which fills the walls of this renowned institution; second, with loyalty to our Alma Mater, we have thought diligently to promote her interests and welfare at all times. Our journey through the gloomy valley of Xewishdom began on September 7th, 1909. And as we put away our personal pulchritude to wear to Meredith College, our rivals, the sagacious Sophomores, thought that we were a gawky looking set of Freshmen. But notwithstanding this, we leaped into these unknown regions, as men who possessed a militant college spirit, to battle bravely with Newish calami- ties. Although college spirit ran high in our ranks, and in spite of the fact that our Class is composed of stalwart men, we met with problems here that we were unable to solve. Most of our number came here from the farm, and we thought that we had ponj- riding down pat, but, lo, when we attempted to ride ponies through those dark regions occupied by such sarcophagus animals as Virgil, Homer, Livy and Caesar, we find it a difficult class. Here a few of our number flunked, while others with the consent of Dr. Paschal were able to make a second trial. Many other difficulties, too numerous to be mentioned, presented themselves for solution; however, we bore them all courageously and passed out of Xewishood a set of sport} ' , handsome, daring youths. Hence we soared to lofty heights to occupj ' the sunny fields of Sophomoreland. On entering these happy fields, we found that another world had dawned in which things went our way. Though once a variegated assortment of boneheads, our personnel now makes us the cynosure of the College. After we had justly celebrated our entrance into these pleasant lands, we turned our attention to ameliorative measures. For the sake of upholding society, and for some other philanthropic reasons, we believe that the verdant embryonic Freshmen should be trained and shown the way of manhood. We believe, however, that this training does not require that bombastic, brutaUzing form of hazing in which the former Sophomore class have indulged and carried to the extreme. And ttith this view in mind, there is no effort so fruitful and worth recording here as the effort of our men to suppress hazing, and to build up and attain a pure college spirit at Wake Forest. In this respect, we are, indeed, what we sought to be, a criterion for the Sophs-elect, and an honor to the College. In athletics, we are invincible. Even during the darkest hours of Xewishdom. we responiled to the call of athletics, and by our untiring efforts we have won fame and renown in every department of college athletics. At the head in basketball, stands Bruce Holding as center. At the forefront in baseball stands Phil Utley, as pitcher, whose record proves his ability; we are also represented on the ba.seball ' Varsity by Faucette, King, Riddick, and Broughton. On the football ' Var.sity, we are represented by Utlev, Harwood, Riddick. Faucette. Holding, Betts, and Savage, while we are none the less felt on the Track Team where Hutchins, Langston and Kennedy occiiiiy important positions. Xot only liuve we furnished the men on the gridiron, but we ha i ' loyally and enthusiast ic-all. funiislicil tlic suitixirt on the side line. Our ( ' lass is iciiiiwucd fur its uKiral vi j;i)i ' , and its influence in this respect, because in our ( ' iillc};c is found a ludral rlcnicnl unsurpassed even 1:)V the higher classes. From stait to finish our Class has stood for right. We stood fiiiuly for the Houoi- System, and were glad to see it established. And now standing on the acropolLs of its eventful career, thrilled with the brilliancy of its past history, inspired with the hopes of the future, the Class of 1913 will go forth bearing a crown of trophies to win yet greater victories for its Ahna Mater. HiSTIIIilAN. } A opljomorc Class ropfjecp It was a beautiful day in May, 1930. I had just completed my day ' s work and was quietly looking through my scant library. ' er3 ' soon I came to a volume that attracted my attention at once, for it was a copy of my College Annual for 1911. I picked it up with eagerness, for I had not seen it in several j ' ears. As I did so, my thoughts ran back to the happy days I spent in College. Many incidents and Ijoyish pranks that happened tluring College days came to my mind as fresh as if they were only yesterday-. As I was slowly turning the pages of the valued volume and looking at the pictures of my classmates, I began to wonder what had become of the members of the Sophomore Class of 1911. Where they all living and happy? While I was thus again living over the past, I heard a loud and distinct knocking on ni}- door. At my response a messenger boy hurried into my room and handed me a telegram. I hastily noted its contents. It was a request for me to be present at a called meeting of the National Bar Association in Washington. I glanced at my watch and saw that I had only forty-five minutes to catch the next train to Washington. I hustled about and arrived at the depot just in time to catch my train. As I took a seat, I noticed some one a few seats in front of me reading a paper. Something about him seemed familiar, and I began to try to recall where I had seen him. Just as the train pulled out of the car shed, he turned his head to look out of the window. I recognized at once my friend and classmate, Charlie Bridger. Of course, I hastened to speak to him, and soon learned that he also was going to Washington. Since leaving College he traveled a year or two but finally settled in Eastern Xorth Carolina and was now running a successful cotton mill. When we reached Richmond, Mrginia, we were delayed several hours. We decided to take in the city, and soon learned that there was a very important murder case to be brought before the court that day. Not ha ing anj-thing to do, we entered the court room. The judge arose and in his clear and solemn voice charged the jury. As he did so, Bridger and I looked at each other with astonishment, for we recognized him to be no other than Jack Riddick. After graduation he had gone to the University of Virginia to study law. He was very successful in his profes- sion and was now Judge of the Superior Court. As soon as the court adjourned, we hastened to speak to him. He had just visited Wake Forest the week before, and he told us many things interesting about our classmates. Harwood had gone to Florida and had become a devout preacher. Bruce Holding had a large clothing establishment and was now furnishing the stu- dents with up-to-date goods. Currin was teaching school and was doing a great work educating the mountain people. A-shecraft, after making himself famous by buikhng the railroad from Kansas City, Missouri, to Topeka. Kaasas, was then President of the Kansas City Railroad and Mining Company. We were compelled to leave our friends and catch the ne.vt train. After the meeting of the Association adjourned, we spent a day in the city. In the afternoon we visited the patent office. Our attentioii was calliMi tn a inadiine that had just been invented and was attracting a great deal of allintidii. It was a device for crushing and separating mica. The inventor. nl this inacliinc were Faucette and Marley, who were now located in Chicago and dciiiiii; an extensive business. We returned on a steamer by the way of Savannah, and when we reached that city, we met up with Hubert Wyatt, who was there attending a banlvers ' conven- tion. We also met Tom Arrington, who was a traveling salesman for a Barber Supply Company. We stopped at the same hotel, and Mr. Arrington gave us a great deal of information regarding the members of the Sophomore C ' lass. Utley was in the hardware business, and also manager of a baseball team, composed of his employees. King was still at Sewanee taking an engineering course. Bible Smith was still pursuing his course at Wake Forest, and was hoping to get his B.A. degree at last in June. Savage went on the stage, but soon gave that up and was now writing a love story. Josey, C. C, had a good position at the experiment station. H. H. Groves was running a large and successful farm in Colorado. Darden, after receiv- ing his degree in law, learned that he had no talent along that line at all, and was engaged in the mercantile business. I reached home the next day feeling greatly enenurai;i ' d and rejdieed at the sue ' ess of my classmates. May they continue to suecei ' d and work f(ir the up- bnildiiif df all that is good.

Poet. mi A t . jFiTsljman Class l istorp When the Shoofly rolled into Wake Forest on the evening of September 9th, the majority of the glorious Class of 1914 were on it. Of course, at first sight we appeared to be rather a forlorn looking set of ' Xew- ish. but the next day. as we went marching up to the Administration Building, to the tune of the Xewish Whistle. ' even the haughty and overbearing Sophomores had to admit that we were the finest looking set of boys that had been here in a long time. Xo. don ' t think for an instant that all of us are handsome, for we have some tough looking mugs among us. For the first week or two. we lived in fear antl trembling. We thought that the Sophs were going to black about half of us, judging from the amount of noise that they made each night. I am glad to say, however, that beyond being danced and whistled, we were unmolested. For the first two weeks, we did not try to have a meeting, as we were too badlj ' scared of being shined. The third week, however, a number of us met on the edge of town, one morning at four o ' clock. We elected officers, anrl then got back to our holes as quickly as we could. The Cla.ss is noted not only for being so good looking, but also for the interest we take in athletics and society work. The first evening that we hail a football practice, the majority of the men out were Freshmen. They did not come out one evening and quit, but they stuck to it, and as a result, we had ten men on the ' Varsity Squad. Among them were Big Joe Pointer, Dowd, Strawberry Ramseur, Stringfield, Carter, and others. We also had a large number on the Scrub Squad. In the Class games we tied the Sophomores the first game, and in the second they beat us five to nothing. We did better in the Class games of basketball than we cUd in football, for we beat the Seniors, and were beaten by the Juniors by a very close score. We have two men. Dowd and Turner, on the ' Varsity Squad, and they are both excellent players. A number of the boys have gone out for track work, and wc will perhaps have two men on the team. Most all of the boys are taking an interest in baseball, and tlie prospects are now that we will have some men on that team. We are taking wonderful interest in society, and already we have some fine speakers. Bro-mi, the President of the Class, bids fair to be one of the c oming orators of the day. If the Freshmen next year take as much interest in athletics and society as we have done, we need have no fear that these things «-ill die do ii in the future. So. taking the Freshman Class as a whole, I think I can say without fear of successful contradiction, that in every department of College activity, athletics, society or regular class work — we have the finest Class that has been on the hill during this century. HlSTORL X. Jf rcsijinan Class rop!)ccp Wlicii thr iKitahlc Fivsliiiuui Class of 1910- ' ll clcftt ' d iiic as its iH-uphot, I was asked to stand up so that they might see the blushing features of him who should foretell the career of so bold a Class. Thinking jierhaps the mantle of some former pro|)hi ' t might fall ujjou my shoulilcrs, I hesitatingly arose, but there was no miracle. Several weeks ])assed before 1 e iuld realize what a great responsibility lay ujjon my unprophetic mind. Finally I decided that I was not a born prophet, and, if I were to succeed I must seek help. This the prophets of the other classes refused to give, and through rivalry turned me away with the Sophomorical command, Go your route. Newish, I care nothing about ynui- future. Feeliiiii; somewhat humilated by this, I consulted a warmer friend. Dr. Tom. He pulitely doffed his hat, ran his fingers through his black curls and said: I jes tell ye, boss, not bein ' penniliar with .so dilabidated a subject, and not havin ' time to considerate it, consequently I coukln ' t conform you. One night I decided to seek the desired information from the old oak which has .stood in front of the Administration Building for more than a century, and has watched class after class come and go. As I came within a few stejis of it, a sol- emn voice commanded: Climb up yonder oak to that broken limb and seat yourself. Without a moment ' s hesitation I climbed the tree and seated m. self on the limb. Suddenly a gloomy apparition in the form of a misshapen bird, arose from tlic hollow trunk and sat upon the broken top. Then it mumbleil in a lonesome tone: W-h-o, W-h-o, W-h-o are you? Looking straight into its eyes. I answered: Prophet of the Freshman ( ' lass. Thereupon, its eyes grew larger and larger until by the soft moonlight 1 could see in them a birdseye view of the future. The first scene is in Eastern Carolina. The swamjjs ha c been transformed into froggeries. Roy Marsh, by his effective knowledge of Economics, has solved the food problem. He has reduced the high cost of living to a minimum by buying these swamps and developing the frog growing industry. The market demand for frog legs as food is rapidly increasing. His partner is Bi ' asley, (hi ' jeweler. He has laid aside his jiipe and is n ]W aeeumulating a fortune by making shoe buttons from frog eyes. The apparition snapped its eyes and, lo, the scene is changed. It is now Wilkesboro. The streets are crowded with anxious looking people, all hurrying towards the station. In the onrushing crowd, I recognize my old classmates, Mayberry and Pointer. They are wearing the jjolice insignia, and watching for any disturbances which are likely to occur on unusual occasions. There is also Martin pushing his way through the erowil, displacing a notice bearing this in- scription : I ••This is hcalins il:iy. Dr. Sliusart fniiii the I ' liivn-sity oi ' Berlin will distrili- ute samples of his wuiulerful autD-auti-ifiiiocraiiiuiii, which is liclicvi ' il to Ik ' a cure for all ignorance. The next change takes nie into a iiicturesciuc valley in the Land of the Sky. Both slopes are covered with fruit trees, all bending with their loads of delicious fruits. Under the shade of a large apple tree, I see an old man sitting, quietly perusing the Asheville Citizen. I ' ll be blest! If it isn ' t my old friend, Hipps! He is now the largest fruit- grower of the South. The scenes now pass so rapidly that I, in my semi-conscious state, am unable to grasp them all. With wonilerful speed scenes in South, North and West, whiz before me in which I see my classmates busily engaged in their different jjrofessions and occupations, all at the front to be sure. The scene that especially attracts my eye is in Utah. Here I see the rather wan countenance of Kester. Around him are seated a number of aged latlies, seemingly of different temperaments. Mr. Kester, after finishing his theologi- cal course, was sent as State evangelist to Utah. He became so entangled in Mormon matrimonial doctrine that he — Mirable clidu — departed from the Bapti.st church and is now showing his wonderful executive ability by controlling thirteen mothers-in-law. In Ireland I catch a glimpse of Neal, who is there as reporter for Everybody ' s Magazine, gathering Irish jokes. He is now out from under the wing of his god- mother, and instead of running, he is walking under the wing of a Bishop. In Germany I see Freeman and Witherspoon finishing their courses in Paint- ing and Astronomy. Freeman ' s The Moon has caused much excitement in the world of painting, while Witherspoon ' s power of posing is unsurpassed. There is Polly at the North Pole selling rush hats and fine linen. He is our most noted salesman. Our athletes have and are making glorious records. There is Tyner coming out on the field to make a lunidred yard dash for Plague take it! I might have known that this rotten old liiiili would break. Prophet. Till ' : I ' lliST TKIP Til Ml:l!l:i)ITl 3aa . . SCENES ABOUT THE COLLEGE ■THE LIMB OF THE LAW Hatu Cla«f£( (©iiittta J. B.

I Ilistorp of iHebital Class; Man.v and varied have been the activities tliat have characterized our move- ments since the historian chronicled the glorious achievements of the Medical Class of ' 09- ' 10. That was a fruitful year in the history of the Class, but this one far surpasses it in the making of history, eclipses it in accomplishments, and vies with it in its personnel. It has been significant by ' irtue of the fact that the Faculty antl the .Students have, liy their concerted and harmonious efforts, lifted the Wake Forest Medical School from its already e.xalted pinnacle to one a little higher on the mountain of fame. More students are enrolled as prospective M.D. ' s than in any previous year; so many, in fact, as to necessitate another Professor to aid and supplement our already admirable Medical Faculty. So, Dr. Carstarphen, a former Wake Forest man, whose ability in his chosen profession has been recognized and substantiated by years of successful practice, elected by the Trustees to take the Chair of Physiology and Physiological Chemistry, came to us as a very agreealile Xmas present. Yet with all our large number, the historian is made sad when the roll call reveals the absence of Ross and Wyatt, the former answering the irresistible call back to Country Life in America ; the latter having developed a neuras- thenic disposition could not dispel the magnetic attractiveness of a nearby metrop- olis. But of those remaining. We have found time, not only to cultivate a crop of bacteria, drag cover-glass Shugart around the Labratory, or wait patiently for someone to die to get a stiff, but to engage extensively in the varied activities of College life. In athletics the Class has upheld its envious record of the past — our only dis- agreement being with the Lawyers, but it is by disagreements that they procure sustenance — and led on by such heroes as Cox, Sherrill, McLendon, and Henry bids fair to win the Championship in baseball. Then there is Davis, the track man, who serves j ' ou rurming in any style; and Jones. wIkj has made an enviable record as an all round athlete. The Class has not only made progress in its sphere of Medicine and Athletics, but it has shown rare and marked ability in the Literary world. Listen at Master Allen speak, and his matchless eloquence prevails against the most stub- born will; and when Buchanan sings the mocking-birds hide themselves for shame. See our Anniversary Marshals and you would think that they were disciples of a Chesterfield. But the climax will only be reached when the future historian shall chronicle the activities of Newish Poteat and Anderson, the Medico-Clergymen, and of Hamrick, the Seer, who seated upon his pinnacle in the dissecting room gazing steadfastly down at the passing Newish, is only disturbed by the occasional grunts of Green or Pud Thaxton awaking from their slumbers, or by the untimely appearance of Dr. Stewart. Mention must he made, however, of the fact that Henry has discovered a drug to ]jromote the Serration of Parotid Juice, and that Lane and Prof. Monk Rodftprs still terrify the good people of this immediate vicinity in their search for unl(.)V(Ml canines. But I fear I will verge on the territory of the Prophet. ( ' {jncludina;, the historian wishes to mention the fact that the Carnegie Foun- (lalidii l!(|iiirt has (•(iiiiiiM ' iidcd and ai)i)rov(Ml the .standard of work done here. But the srliddl justly descrvi ' s it, for ndwhcre in this section will you find a school so completely ecjuipped, nowhere do students receive the same personal contact with the Professors, and nowhere do you find such hard-working students ; and they all stand out as gentlemen of the highest culture, manner, and address. And with the imiietus the men of the Class have received here they bid fair to lead their classes during their third and fourth year, to cast honor upon the school, and their achievements after they have received their M.D. will liriug forth the sweetest aroma in the Urn of Man ' s aceomplishnicnts.

Jlisitorp of tijE iWinifiterial Class; The primary object of the fciuiiding of Wake Forest College was to uicct tlic growing needs and demands of an educated Baptist Ministry, in our own dear State and other lands as well. Stupendous, indeed, was the task laid u|ioii the hearts of (jin- nolilc lienefac- tors, who, with indefatigalile industry and with indomitable will came u]) triumph- ant through many trials and tribulations, and succeeded in gaining and maintaining a foothold for our College in the State. Little diil they dream that so little a fire would be fanned into so Ijig a blaze. Behold! Great streams of influence have radiated from this dynamo of knowledge and touched the four quarters of the globe. Since the beginning of its career, the College has undergone various changes; many improvements have been effected, other branches of study introduced, and new schools created, — for instance, the schools of Law and Medicine. We are glad that these changes and improvements have come; the, ' make our College a bigger, broader and more useful school, but we are also glad to lie able to say that the College is still the stronghold of our Baptist faith. Now in approaching the present Ministerial Class, we do so witli uns])eakable awe, for we realize that the half has never yet been told, nor do we think or expect even so much as the dim twilight of the history of the individual nicinlurs to ever be accurately recorded. Surely, only divinely inspired Muses could ever fittingly depict the history of such a Class! Your humble servant feels somewhat like the poet felt when he exclaimed — ■ ' . nd I w,ml,l IlKit 1 cuiil.l lifter The thciiinlils thut nrisi ' in mi Even if 111 ' could utter the thoughts that arise in him, who could count the volume necessary to contain the records, deeds, and unjiaralleleil literary ]iroductions of the Class, which have guslied forth from the fertile lirains like crystal streams of water from inexhaustible fountains, quenching the fiery thirst of languishing humanity ? Our Class has always been the largest class in College, liut it was not until recent years that we saw fit to organize. Just here let us state plainly our iiosilion. To us organization does not ineau isolation, as some seem to think. The memliers of our Class are just as liberal-minded as any men in College anil we mingle freely with the members of the other Classes; in other words, we believe in becoming all things (legitimately) to all men, that we may by all means save some. Nihil humanum me aleinum puto. As a proof of the above, all a jjcrson need do is to look around and he will see members of our C ' lass actively engaged in nearly all of the activities of College life. In athletics, we tote our cuii ol ' tlic load. Our men maintain first places on the track team; on the diamond tlu-y hit the ball some; they are at home with the basketball; tennis is easy tor them: while on the gridiron they are Johnny on the spot with the goods. Our men are mostly hard working men, too. ' Tis true that there is a prevailing idea that Wake Forest College is a huge preacher-manufac- turing plant — a machine like unto a gigantic sausage grinder, into which the Fresh- man from some remote backwoods is thrown and the crank of daily study is turned for four years, and out comes an educated, full-orbed, profound preacher, ready to grace the pulpit of some city church. Such an idea i.s erroneous. While it may be true that a few of the ministerial students become tainted with a bit of arti- ficiality, the Class as a whole is composed of practical and self-reliant men: — Toiling, rejoicing, sorrowing, Onward tlirough life he goes; Eacli morning sees some task begun, Each evening sees its close. In the church, Sunday School and Y. M. C. A. our fellows do not try to monoii- olize things, yet they take an active part in the work. Why shouldn ' t thc - ' . ' Wlio will if they don ' t ? Ministerial students rank with the best in debating and society work at large. Some of our men are accomplishing a great deal in the way of leading mission clas.ses in the College, teaching Sunday School classes in the village and nearby country schools. Not a few of our J ' oung preachers are actively engaged in pastoral work, serving churches in near and cUstant fields, going oft ' regularly to fill appoint- ments, or as some one has wittily suggested, disappointments. Will you pardon the historian for having assumed an eulogistic mood and allow him (with due re.spect to our worthy Prophet) to predict, unless cata- clysms, or schisms unforeseen occur, that the old world will inevitably hear from this Class; for, as Emerson has well warned us: Beware when the Great God turns loose a thinker on this planet. In conclusion, we want to express our deep gratitude to our beloved Dr. Cul- lom for the many words of advice and encouragement which he has kindly given to us, also for his generous services in teaching our Special Class. When our spirits are drooping, he comes to us in the words of the poet and says : Look to the light; all will be riglit. Morning is ever the daughter of night. All that was black will be all that is bright. iHinisiterial Class Propfjecj) In the rocitation room, where the Ministerial Class were organizing, I sat dozing, fell ' I luul licen sitting later than my accustomed bedtime for several evenings and for tliat reason had lost considerable slee]3. In just a few minutes, however, the nomination was made for Prophet and the name Sitlney A. was put in. I was so sleepy that I did not notice it, but you may be assurefl that I was fully awakened when C. C. Wheeler pulled my coat sleeve and jironounced the words of his famous dictum, Thou hast a name. For some time after my election I tried to see some vision of our future but prophetic visions will not come by labor, as I soon found out. But a time finally came and I saw the future of each man, part of which vision I must relate. The occasion of this vision was when I was in Wake County ' s metropolis, the proud city of Apex. It was on a Sunday evening that I was in that burg between trains and while there I had opportunity and time to go out to church services. It was a soothing sermon and any poor mortal could have found the anesthetic of boredom then ' . The preacher put me to sleep in his intmiluction, and it was in this sleep that I saw my vision. In justice to Apex, to Wake County, anrl to Nortli Carolina, I shouUl say that the sleep-inducing orator was not a native product. No, indeed, Exum .Jeter Rogers has lived in Columbia and, with his contemporary, has shared the pleas- ures of travel, having visited the great State of Kentucky, where he scoured the territory in the interest of the homo, jonah, ragical, tragical, double-compound, incomiireliciisiblc, local e.xtraction of — something — ask him; he probably knows. But I must relate what I saw during my vision under the spell of this mag- netic experience. Reflecting, in my dream, I thought of a 1910 Newish. Soon he appeared in the true light of 1920. It was in the Gooseberry Swamp church that he was pastor. In this church A. I. Caudle was beating the air, smiling broadly and preaching from the tex-t Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing. I could not refrain from laughing as Caudle sjwke, for I saw that he was using the same argument for his position that he hail used in his C ' ollege talks, at the dinner table. My next scene was in a little country dwelling in Virginia. It was the home of a Baptist preacher, I was told, so walked in. I found an old Wake Forest friend sitting at work over a Greek lexicon. I noticed the extremely worried look, and I knew that he was working over a Greek sentence. R. E. Powell, old boy, can you read Greek after so many years of working on it? I inciuired. Once in a while I can get a sentence to my satisfaction, but what is this? — the easiest thing in Xenophon. John Carroll was the next of our Class whom I saw. It was in New York City. He is pastor of a large, newly formed church which stands on 46th Street just two blocks from the Grand Union Hotel. John is still a bachelor— not thinking of anj-thing else after twenty years, and still working to become a famous scholar, and equally as determined that he viiW never be classed with the average man in those silly sentiments as he calls them. In Brooklj-n, Doctor George Washington Pascal Smith is making an enviable reputation as a man of letters. He long smce quit the Baptists becaase he likes Latin in his ser -ices, prayerbooks and hj-mns. I visited his church one Sunday in 1930. His text had been announced in Saturday ' s paper in English: I keep my body under subjection but when Smith announced his text in his pulpit he was so sure that it was easy Latin that he said, with firmness Mens sana in sano corpore. From Brooklj-n I went to Albany. To my pleasure I found many old friends there. Billy Grain still follows Y. L C. A. work. and. by the way. he now has his little cigar helping him. S. Long (better known as long S ), Allen, Sorrell and E. F. Sullivan were there also. They are now touring the State lecturing on Palestine, and how we saw it. I heard Pool on the same subject, but noticed he did not describe the cattle boat nor state the method in which they brought this party of Dr. Sledd ' s tribe back. Father Robertson, from whom all n-ill be glad to hear, is still an oratorical pugilist. I saw him in 1928, at which time he wa-s preparing a debate speech for the instruction of Congress, on the query Shall Panama be fortified again.st air- ships? He is preaching, too, but for exercise and pastime he still rehearses his speech on The Ladies ' Home Journal. Joe Currin, like many other Xorth Caroliniaas, found the State too small for such a master mind — left it and is now Chaplain of Sing Sing. But, seriously, Joe is as hard working as ever; is everybody ' s favorite and still a good hearted fellow. Jack Ellis and Vaughn Ferguson are both in Kentucky — both doing good pas- toral service; staj-ing dressed up and helping Asa P. make friends with the ladies. Jack says he succeeds at everj-thing else and can ' t understand why he fails at this. He is nearly forty; nearly bald and no nearer the goal than in 1911. Ed. Jenkins has made quite a success in his work. But he has his weakness as of old. It is Dallas that he now calls his home. A lawjer there told me Jenks was preaching some Sundays ago; was making a double gesture — but just as he had his hands high in the air his notes were blown out by a gust of wind. He was lost — lost his nerve and fell, from force of habit, into the College experiences, so started Wind mill, swinging in — One, Two, Three, Four. Asa P. Gray went over all the world seeking his fortune. He made friends everj-where. He lived in Utah a while, but for his last days he moved to Florida. There he chose for his home, and for a place to rest, the town of Kiss-i-mee. He saj ' he is spending his old age in rest. J. Ben EUer has been seeking the place where Asa lives, hut Asa P. says he has a monopoly in one town. In Atlanta the citizens called on R. P. Blevins for a 4th of July speech, in 1920. He gave the declamation known to all men of the Phi. Society: America is the land of sunshine and flowers. That was fine. But afterward, on another occasion, he was callcil in tii ])n ' acli tlu ' funeral of a i-niivii ' t wIki was shot wliili ' tryini to escape. He seratelied his heatl fur ari idea. Siiow and ice were over the ground. Hut finally an idea came and he started to speak promptly America is the land of sunsliine and flowers — his speech for every time of need. On my way back to Raleigh from Atlanta I stopped at a little town in the southern jiart of our State. I wa.s walking along in front of some stores, when sud- denly I met my old friend, T. Sloan Guy. He was still selling Bibles, or to use Dr. Cullom ' s more polished phrase, he was doing colportage work. I tried to talk of our College days but we had only talked about two minutes when he spoke, very confidentially, and said, I made 1900 in ten weeks last summer. I again turned conversation to Wake Forest boys but soon Guy butted in: I had an offer the other day of the first Baptist Church at Lciudon. I congratulated him. We talked on a little and were saying words of farew ' ll when I was i nformed that my esteemed friend had recently preached at Crabtree where, as he said, he had made a hit with the people. But just as I learned of the hit I5ro. Kogers said i(i ( sdpinis at the top of his voice, and I waked up to realize that it was all a dream. m ntfuaf (0rgani?ations ' a if ' III t ' (Eo pjilomatijesiia Fair PhUumatlusia. fnnul of Truth, ' Tix thin, to ijiliilc thr firl nf i nulh Aicity from low and mean ilesirc, To heights suhlime where hurnn the fire Thai moves the good nf eivri age: To write their names upon Ihc innjr Of those who strive to xealter Lliihl, O ' ermaster Wrong and Mrcngl)n-n liight.

K )t Merarp Societies; While we woulil not depreciate tlie value of any jihase of our College, we be- lieve that our Literary Societies — the Philomatlipsian and Euzelian, are the greatest factors in the life of Wake Forest College. These Societies have furnished our State and our nation some of her brainiest men, and much of their success can be attriljuted to the early training they recei ' eil while members of the Societies. In them men Iciiin to think while on their feet and to feel at ease before an audience. There is no conlention between the two Societies, save that noble contention, or ratlier emulation, as to who can best work and best serve. May this ever exist so long as we are true to ourselves, and we trust it may be the means of liftinu; our members to a higher plane of civilization ami Christian living. The coming events in the yearly life of our Societies are our inter-collegiate debates, one on Thanksgiving and one Easter Monday. The many victories won by our debating teams have achieved for us an envialjle re jiutation amongthe leatling colleges and universities of the South.

The Appropriation Committee wa.s instructed to appropriate any and every- thing that they consider useful. They are especially warned to exert themselves in an effort to hook Psychology Examination. A banquet was ordered prepared for Monday night and if the above Commit- teemen are unsuccessful in their search for aforesaid examination — (1) They are to have no voice in the Faculty meetings; (2) They are to have no drinks at the banquet; and, (3) They are to be hanged, drawn and quartered. The Committee was also instructed to devise a method whereby cigars can be extracted from the Xewish. The Committee on Publication wa.s notified to secure .space in The Howxer for occupancy by the great organization known a.s the Scrub Faculty. Power was also invested in this Committee to issue blanks whereby miscreants may be sum- moned to the President ' s office. The Committee on Discipline was ordered to secure e ' idence against the culprit who exploded the pop-cracker in the rear of Chapel and jack him up for not going nearer the front. It was decided that the President should notify our assistants that tliey stand excused when off the hill five months or more. The subject of Dunliar Ives whistling Casey Jones on last Smiday morning was brought up and Dr. Peterson was instructed to notify him to appear in person at the next regular meeting of the Scrubs. Charlie Taylor is to be censured for tlespoiling the beautiful campus by expec- torating baccus juice thereon. This was referred to the Committee on Disci- pline. Parson Johnson was to be jacked up for exposing his ignorance of the Bible for more than thirty minutes last Sabbath hour. Assistant Paschal was to lie censured for calling a man a coward for throwing a snowball in that particular point in space where his anatomy happened to be. The Secretar.y was instructed to notify Willie Poteat to appear before the Faculty to explain why he refuses to call us by our official title. A Committee composed of Drs. Davis, Rodwell and J. C.

CoiLsid- ering the fact that the Coach arrived a few days late, and with only two or three of last year ' s men to begin with, the team made a creditable showing. The line-up of the team wa.s as follows: Utley, r. h. b., Captain; Riddick, f. h.; Huntley, f. b. ; Savage, 1. h. b. ; Stringfield, 1. h. and end; Dowd, 1. h. and q. ; Aydlett, q. b.; Faucette, r. end; Robinson, r. end; Betts, 1. end; Highsmith, 1. end; Holding, r. t.; Pointer, 1. t.; Carter, r. g. ; Harwood, 1. g. ; Green, 1. g. ; Ramseur, center; Bagwell, center. Some interesting facts about each player follow: Utley, Raleigh, age 22, wt. 162 lbs., height 6ft. 1 in., Class ' 13; Riddick, Scotland Xeck, age 20, wt. 1.55 lbs., height 5 ft. 9 in..

The interest in football at Wake Forest is on the increase. The ej ' es of ath- letic men are turned this way; and with the increase of interest and with a few years time, there is no doubt lint that Wake Forest will again have a winning football team. The last season has been a remarkaljly successful one at least in one respect. The season closed with the team out of deljt. Under the skillful management of the Alumni .Athletic Association, directed by Messrs. Powell and Mills, the team has done excellently well and is now in fine shape financially. Ml:? ADA LEE TIMBEI1L. KE Sponsor Football Team masktihali The opening of the basketball sea-son this year brought with it the most dis- couraging prospect of a winning team we have ever had. Eight men of the nine in last year ' s squad failed to return. The one who returned. W. R. Holding, was a substitute. In spite of this dismal opening, we have put out a winning team, thanks to Professor Crozier and the system which he has deHsed to train players. The system of cla.ss games which he has instituted gives everyone a chance to develop whatever basketball ability he possesses, and thus guards a? from the danger of ever being without a number of trained players. The lack of experience which hampered our team this year was more than equaled by its speed. It is said that we had the fastest passing team ever developed here. Our record shows that we led the College teams in the State in the number of games won. Our percentage of games won was eighty-seven and a half. We demon-strated our superiority in the State by defeating the teams of Guilford, Charlotte, Da -idson, CaroUna and A. M., in addition to several teams from Mrginia. Every man in the squad is expected to return next year with the exception of two, and we may well hope to put in a strong bid for the championship of the South among the Colleges. JgasfeetfjaU Ceam.

M. - - ;- MLS.S KLHV UEID oxsoR Baseball Tea I BagEbaU Heretofore, in some instances, Wake Forest College has been embarrassed financially. When the Alumni Athletic Association was organized last year with Mr. R. B. Powell as Manager, this difficulty was put through the final analysis; and thus a good preventive was discovered. Through the influence of this association, a new spirit has been made to prevail throughout the students, and athletics in general have taken on a new life. Nowhere has this been more pro- nounced than in baseball. At first the team was handicapped by not beginning practice till a short while before the first games were scheduled. H. C. Benton, a former captain and star jilayer of the Wake Forest nine, acted as Assistant Coach until Coach Crozier would leave the basketball team. However, under the guidance of experienced men the team, after having dropped a few of the unimportant games, was developed into as good as any college could boast, regardless of t lie fact that the team, with the exception of three men, was composed of raw material. In e ' i ' ry sense of the word it was a team re])resentative of the College body. Among our oi)ponents of importance who had to drop their bats in defeat before this team were Trinity and Carolina. What was not done for Trinity was not worth doing. They lost the first game to us on our grounds, the .second they took on their ground, and the third in Haleigh was won by Wake Forest to the tune of five to oni ' . The ciil liusiasm of the students should be maintained because it aided so much in the sucnss of tin ' learn. A team with loyal support ought to win. The Trinity boys cduld not find Itlcy ' s curves. Tlw next game was with Carolina in Raleigh. Here again Wake Forest had the support that counts — that makes every man do his best. Again Wake Forest was victorious. Utley led Carolina, in thirteen innings, to one measly hit and did not give a single free pass. Here ' s to the team that won second place in the State, that won first place in pure athletics. The team for this Spring at this writing is a thing of the future, but if we were allowed to draw conclusions, by the comparison of this Spring ' s material with that of last, we would say that Wake Forest will have a team that will go some.

With runners for each event, well trained and second to none in the State, we lost every meet by a small margin, usually because of neglect as to the field events. Taken as a whole, the records of the team made here and elsewhere, represent the efforts of a few individ- ual stars rather than team work, and therein lay our weakness. Only a nucleus of the team of the preceding year having returneil, it wa.s found difficult to develop a strong average team within the space of one year. Consequently the greater part of the glory of upholding Old Gold and Black fell upon the shouklers of a compara- tively small number of men. It must be said to their credit that worthily did they acquit themselves of the duty laid upon them. The highwater mark of the season ' s records was reached at Charlottes •ille, Virginia, when with the championship of the South at stake. Wake Forest entered six representatives and captured third place. Coughenour, Murchison, and Hutchins did especially well, while Jones, Da -is and Highsmith also won places. Other scores of the season were: University of Xorth CaroUna 6-5 points Wake Forest College -53 points Washington and Lee oS points Wake Forest College SO points A. yi. College 67 points Wake Forest College o9 points Wake Fore.st College at Charlottesville 21 points The individual stars of the season were: CouKiicnour, 55 points; Hutchins, 29 points; Murchison, 27 jioints; other strons menilters of the team were Jones, H.

Herring: Is ' St. Elmo ' a novel? )t Senior ' s olilotjup Four ' cars ago my father sent me to C ' oUf ' se without my consent, now I must lea -c lierc against nii,- will My stay here has Ijeen one of ups and downs. My woi-k lias lieeii one quiz after another. My entertainment has been loafing at the drug store. My excitement, meeting the trains. My recreation, going to Raleigh. When I wa.s a Newish I was a green but fresh fool, when a Soph a rowdy fool, when a .Junior a conceited fool, and when a Senior a darn fool. If I studied I was a grind and a hookworm, if I didn ' t study I was wasting my opportunities. Whenever I was gay and boisterous I wa-s called fresh, when I was solemncholy I was a stick. If I spent my money freely I was a tenderfoot, when I didn ' t spend much I was a tightwad. When I went to chapel I got bored, if I cut it meant a visit to President Poteat. Before joining Y. M. C. A. I was a sinner, after joining I was a hyprocrite. If I joinetl the Athletic Association it was to make a show, if I didn ' t join I had no college spirit. Before joining a literary society I was worried to death with invitations to join, when I joined I got stuck, for when I didn ' t speak in society I was not doing my duty, when I spoke I was groaned at. Before tr -ing for the football team I was feather-legged, when at first I didn ' t make Sood, I was cold-footed, since making the team I am called swell head. If I stud- ied law it was because I wanted a snap course, if I studied for the ministry it was to get my tuition free. When I met all trains I was wasting my time, when I didn ' t I missed the only excitement on the hill. If I played cards, matched for drinks or bet on the ball games I was a grafter and a crook, if I didn ' t I wasn ' t game. When I ran an account it was dangerous, when I didn ' t I was lucky. When a fellow has money he is popular, but when he is broke all his friends are in the same fix. If I don ' t get up to breakfast I get hungry before dinner, if I eat the breakfast I am not able to eat dinner. If I go to reading room to keep up with the news I find it full of back number magazines. When I am attentive to the ladies of the hill I am an arc-light, when I am not I have no sporting blood in me. If I didn ' t send out invitations to Anniversary I might slight some one, if I did send them the girls might come. When I first came here I was pitied, before I left everybody wanted to kick me. When a fellow got shipped everybody said there was a great future for liim, if he stayed here everybody found out what a bonehead he was. College life is a funny proposition after all, and often is not what it is cracked ujj to be. Still its peculiarities make it fascinating and thoughts of college days always make us glad.

No wonder she fainted away! 3fugt 0nt i lore Tom. you ' re next. We were all seated comfortably about the fire. Well, I ' m about out, boys, but I ' ve got just one more true story to tell you. We wmked at each other. Tom never told anrthing Init true stories, but we were always glad to hear them. Do you remember Fred Wilson? he began. Sure, came the answer, who wouldn ' t remember that fellow? He was always going around hanging to a pipe. Yes, alwaj ' s -ith the pipe. He never wa.s seen out an - vhere, a.s I know of, without that pipe stuck in the corner of his mouth. And, you remember how he never spoke to anyone when he could help it. Yes, and they used to tell all sorts of tales about his having money buried somewhere. That ' s just where my story comes in. Well, go on, Tom. We were all interested now. Fred Wilson had been very reserved, never confiding in anyone, and so stories had sprung up concerning him. His father wa.s wealthy, and Fred was known to receive money often. . s he seemed to spend scarcely any, it wa.s rumored that he was somewhat of a miser. Some held that he had money buried, and even jewels, though no one stopped to exjjlain where he got the jewels. You remember, continued Tom, that Fred was called home suddenly last year. ' ' Yes, } ' es. Well the day after he went home, his room mate, Billy Watson, came to me all excited. ' Tom, I ' ve got it now, ' he exclaimed excitedly, as he rushed into my room. ' Got what? ' I said, not ha -ing the least idea of what he was dri ' ing at. ' Oh, ' he said, ' I was so excited I forgot myself. ' He took a chair and ch-ew it close to mine. ' Tom, I ' ve got something to tell you ' , he began. ' I thought you woulthi ' t let it out. We ' ve always been good friends, you know. ' ' What do you take me for, Billy? ' Course I won ' t give an -thing away. ' ' Weir, he said, ' here it is. You know, there have been a good many rumors about Fred ha -ing money hid somewhere? ' ' Yes, everybody says that, ' I answered. ' Well, ' he went on, ' I ' ve been rooming with him this year, and have always thought it. Fred was called home yesterday, and asked me to pack his trunk. I looked all through his papers, and I ' ve found out where he ' s got the money. ' ' The deuce you have, ' I said, jumping up. ' Yes, here it is, ' he replied, anil pulled out a little old wornout book which had evidently seen much ser ' iee. There under the date of October 15 was the following entry: ' Buried three feet due Xorth of the tree rock. ' That was all. ' Why, what good is that ' ? Who knows what or where the tree rock is ' ? ' I asked. ' I do, that ' s who, ' he answered triumphantly. ' I suppose I ' m the only one who knows where it is except Fred. You know I used to follow Fred about, trying to find out something about him. He had a place over here in tiie woods that he went to nearly every day. A tree has growii up splitting a rock apart, so that it looks as if the tree were actually growing out of the rock. Fred used to go there to lie alone. He called it the tree-rock. ' ' That sounds more like it then, ' I said, ' that is, if you know where this rock is. Three feet north of the tree-rock sounds like the location of the treasure in the Gold Bug, only, I ' ll admit, these directions are not quite so mixed up. ' ' You see, ' Billy went on to explain, ' the entry was made only a few days ago. I remember that Fred seemed terribly cut up over something. Then, to make it worse, he lost that old pipe of his, and a new one didn ' t suit him. He wouldn ' t hardly speak the last three days he was here. ' Well, fellows, I told Billy that I appreciated his letting me in on his scheme, and that I would manage the whole affair for half. You know Bilh- was never much of a manager. Here Tom paused. No one said anything, so he went on. During that day I got together the necessary things. I swiped a pick and shovel, and got a dark lantern from one of the boys. That night aliout eleven o ' clock we started. We made our way without interrujition, except from a ilog at a negro cabin along the road. Finall.v we came to a bend in the road. ' Stop here, ' said Billy. He looked up and down the road, and then pushed his way through the bushes, up the slope at the roadside. Scjon we came to a small open space, and there be- fore us was the tree-rock. The light of the full moon shone through the almost leafless boughs, and I could see pretty well without the lantern. The tree was a squatted oak, and had gr own up through a crevice in the rock. As it grew, it had divided the rock in four pieces, so that it was surrounded on all sides, and had the apjiearance of grow- ing out of the rock itself. Billy called me back to our task. ' ( ' ome on, Tom, ' he said, ' light the lantern quick. I think I ' ve found soini - thing. ' I struck a match nervously. Billy was scratching among the leaves. I held the lantern down, and there in the ground was a small stake. ' This must be it, ' said Billy, ' give me the pick. ' He struck only a blow or two, when he found something solid. He dug in the dirt with his hands, till he brought up a small iron box fastened with a wire. ' This is his l)ox, sure, ' he cried. ' Open it up, ' I said excitedly, as I took tlie box from him. ' Rut, Billy, it ' s not very heavy. ' He took it again. ' No ' , he said, ' it must be jewels. ' We both fingered at the wire nervously, and finally got the box oikmi. The contents appeared to have been packed carefully. I began to tear out mil after roll of paper. We were about to give up all hopes, when we came across a small package in the center of the box. ' Here it is, ' I cried in triumph. My fingers trembled as I unrolled the package, and what do you think, fi-Uows? There before our eyes lay Fred Wilson ' s old pipe with a broken stem. Aw, pshaw! was the disappointed exclamation of the listeners. Yes, continued Tom, that ' s what it was. I threw it down in disgust, when Billy picked up the paper in which the pipe had been wrapped. ' What ' s this? ' he said, holding the paper up to the lantern, so that he could read. I looked over liis shoulder and read: ' To my pipe: You served me long and well, faithful friend. May -ou now rest in peace. Cursed be he who disturbs your resting place. ' Tom had risen, and started for the door, his custom after saying his say.

Gore. IN (Hit I)KN, pen, Cijc puppet of CircumstancE Miea Ben Julian betrothed himself to an unknown lady correspondent and showed his mother her photograph, the elderly woman shook her head distrust- ingly, insisting that it was unwise. The lady may be used to riches and will want a great mansion set in a wilderness of flowers, with fountains and stone ilogs and electric arrangements; and you know, son, you were not reared in luxuries — I hope it won ' t be, though — she added consolingly. Let it come. It ' s got to prove so before I change my mind, declared Ben. So one day Ben actually became infatuated to madness and would all but have died for Jessica Sandrock ' s sake. The romance of the engagement held her; love held him. How they came to know each other was this way. They were both college students. She WTOte a poem which appeared in her college journal with her name and date of graduation. Ben was puzzled to know how best to reach her. He knew all women were susceptible to flatten, ' at times, so he congratulated her on a card be aring words something like these: CongratulatioiLs! poem entitled — is verj ' pleasing. See opening poem in December Xumber of our exchange with you. Address: Y. M. C. A. President. He knew she could find none but old exchanges. That was to arouse her curiosity and get a response and perhaps a request for a copy of the magazine, and then a note of thanks from her for the kindness. The whole thing worked well. That is how Ben met his fiancee. When Ben ' s father heard what he had done he said: I could have arranged that part of j ' our career time enough, Ben. without all that nonsense. But Ben kept on shading his slick face and blushing, for he knew some things. He knew he Uked the drooping Uds of Jessica ' s eyes and felt that her presence would be transporting. He fancied that her full brow, s mmetrical features and lovely neck would even be surpassed by her gentleness and learning, especially by the time their engagement was ready to be fulfilled. And besides, nobody but Ben knew how well she could draw dreams with a pen and leave them for him to fill in and give coloring to. So Ben was love-lorn, foolish Ben. regardless of father Julian ' s advice. And so Ben kept quiet, graduated, won his law license and accepted a position with an old lawjer in Jessica Sandrock ' s county. One evening he sent this message in response to her invitation: Will be there on day and hour mentioned. At 7:.30 sharp the auto stopped under the porte-cochere. Jessica was among the first to meet him. They chatted a moment on the steps, and then the servant showed him his room. Good Lord! was ever a man as fortunate as I? She ' s a queen! Ben num- bled to himself as he beheld his own semblance and close-fitting evening dress, to see if he was fit to be in her presence. Then he walked out on the porch upstairs. He heard a male voice say Goodbye below. He peered over involuntarily. Jessica ' s hand was in an alien ' s affectionate grip and her lips were fixed to say Goodbye. He opened his mouth to rebuke his betrothed. That won ' t do, he reflected. He coughed and watched the results. Jessica ' s hand, Ben imagined, foil like lead. The stranger withdrew with undue haste. That settled it with Ben. He tiptoed Lack into liis dungeon-like room, which a moment before seemed to him a palace, ami observed his fiery countenance until his fists clutched with shameful jealous} ' . Ben ' s father sent a long letter of advice to him through the senior partner, giving instructions to the judge to protect his wayward son. When Ben returned, the old judge handed him the bundle of proverb.s from his fatlier. Ben read them disinterestedly. The Judge waited until he finished and then wished to hear Ben ' s account of his trip. Ciuess my folks were right. Don ' t want ever to speak to one of her tribe again. Tututu! What ' s up, what ' s up, now? the judge hurriedly ciucstioned. The little coquetish imp wouldn ' t return my ring. You aren ' t engaged? Engaged — yes, thunder — and she wears my dianiimd ring. Then the fat old Judge pretended to l)low his nose to hide his laughter and said, You ' re just foolish aliout her. Don ' t lie in such a hurry. Aren ' t you jeal- ous? Jealous, nothing! Ben retorted. I guess I know my business. I asked for my ring, but no-sir-ree! Ah, well, be patient, she ' s just trying you in the harness. Poor way to trj ' a fellow, to me, to kiss a friend goodby like she did. The Judge lit his cigar again and smiled behind his ears. The Judge knew something himself, and that ' s what tickled him. All I want ' s my ring. Can get your promise, but not the jewelry, eh? Got neither, yet. Oh, the very devil ' s in that creature! Wish I had known something before I did. If I had, you ' d never catch this boy sending diamonds to strangers again. Why, I ' ll be blessed if I would be fool enough again to send my best wishes to another woman without registering the letter! Why does she refuse to return it? Says I gave it as a present. Of course, to the deuce I did, but there was a provision. Can ' t get ring or provision now, though, and I ' ll just declare tliat I won ' t have her for anj thing. How do you like your father ' s letter? Ben didn ' t hear. Say, Ben, how do you like the letter? ' Salright, I reckon. I ' m not, though. When you going back to see her, Ben? Never, by Geiirge! Going to send for her to come, eh? I ' m not, stolidly. How you going to get the ring? Summons her? Summons that dolly wild-eat? As well ask the moon the time of day! And Ben was leaving. Stay! I know something of her family history — they are niee jieople. I have known them personally and by reputation twenty-five years. Darn j ' our family pedigree — your history and reputation! ' Sfull of diamond rings if they are all frauds hke she is. Tutututu, come, come! I tell you she ' s worth your time. Better win her if you can. Guess she is worth my time, for I shall spend no more with her. Did you ask who the stranger was, or did she tell you al)out him? No; nor did I ask — I asked for my ring, though. The Judge laughed heartily and Ben looked sheepish antl seemed to see his blunder. Go once more, anyhow, the Judge insisted. She loves you yet, Ben, he chuckled. Loves the ring all right enough! You too, Ben, or she wouldn ' t cling to it so. Cling nothing! You ought to have seen her cling to that stranger ' s coat- sleeve! But things were at a crisis. Ben must act; the ring had to come. He couldn ' t afiford one like that for every girl he might become engaged to. Judge, what would you do, in fact? I want your opinion. I reckon I did get jealous a little. I ' ll do whatever you say. Do what I fir.st told you. Go again. Ben went. He saw. Did he conquer? How bewitchingly Jessica flashed the diamond! Ben smiled agreealily and graciously all over his face; he cur.sed under his shirt bosom. She looked be autiful in her crimson silk, her resplendent curls blending with her cheeks and gown. Her finger was not ornamented. The ring was; how could it help but be, on such a hand? The situation demanded courage. But Ben wa.s in living pain and didn ' t have any such metal in his workshop. But in despair, anything, even a mouse, will stare you in the eye and resist the foe. Ben was in despair. To win or fail, he rose to test it. He pretended to warm his hands by her crimson cheeks, holding them close and shivering. She smiled uncertainly. No fire in your heart, I think it is mostly in your face, he proceeded to explain. She looked do vnward, flushed pale, and tears came, involuntarily confessing what words never have. Ben gazed down upon the little cloud of crimson and gold and wonderful coun- tenance, triumphantly. When she had hastily wiped away the stubborn tears, he said consolingly and apologetically, Don ' t cry, little girl, I didn ' t mean to crush your heart. Certainly ()in- inferred apology is acceptable, and I grant you forgiveness; but I was not crying, I am troubled with catarrh and it makes tears come when I start to sneeze. It was Ben ' s time to blush and sneeze, and he certainly did do the first part perfectly. At breakfast 15cn looked dismayed. He was disappointment jiersonified. Good morning, Ben, Ijowed the Judge, U])on entering the room. Good morning, moodily. When you going to Imng her to live with us? innocently asked the .Judge. Never! Not? very surprised. No! thunderation! doubtful if I myself .stay here long. Going there to live, then, an- you ' . ' Like her town lietter, eh? No! sir, aggravatedly. She won ' t — ? No, she won ' t even give me a single wonl of encouragement, Ben broke in, Not on to the art, Ben, said the Judge. I ' ll give you some iioints to hang your argument upon if you ' ll promise to use them. Art won ' t work when there ' s no heart, Ben groaned hopelessly. Tried it, then, have you ? Reckon I have. And Ben then related his experience in warming his hands. The Judge laughed boisterously, and said, when over his equatorial pains, Right good trick in you, Ben. Awful forfeit of dignity, though, on your part. I don ' t need any advice. Judge; she is entirely incapable of love; I know for I read the Psalms — some of them to her; then told the romance of Evangeline, Court.ship of Miles Standish, and quoted some pathetic stanzas from Wordsworth. She ju.st sat there like she was on pins, and every time I ' d hesitate she ' d say, ' Oh wasn ' t that cute? ' and smile foolishly and saj ' , ' I ' ve never heard tell of them things before, an ' I hain ' t read much, either, ' when I ' d ask her which one of the American writers she liked most. I wouldn ' t hire a cook who didn ' t have more sense than she seemed to have. And, Judge, you might as well omit your advice right now. I don ' t want it. Beside.?, the world ' s full nf women just as good as she is, and I am not bound to marry anyhow. As good in some respects, l.uit not in every way, the shaggy-haired lawyer answered. Why, Ben, that girl ' s as t ' conomical as Silas Marner. Seems like it! Ben retorted. Holds tight to jewelry all right. Now to facts, Ben; if you want the ring, do this and its yours. I ' ll do most anything but make love to her, Ben hurriedly agreed. Well, it ' s all up, then. You can ' t force a woman to love you. Seems that you know. Judge, to hear you talk. Go on, I want to know the re.st. Well, Ben, try again — go with a determination to bring back the woman or the ring! I ' ll do it, Ben blurted determinedly. Blamed if any woman shall hen- peck me ever, especially beforehand in any such a way! So Ben got ready, wired for a date, and bade the .ludge good morning. In tlic iiicantiiuc, however, thi ' .luils ' ' worked ( .-.■ head, too. He serihliled thi.s ine.-isag.c: Bc- t looks, manners, eneoura}fement and sense. Worthwhile. When Ben arrived, Jessica was looking beautiful, and warmly welcomed him. They had the parlor to themselves, and she bombarded Ben with such excellent language that soon she convinced him that it was another hand-warming .scrape she was pain ing off on him, and inwardly he accused himself of being the biggest dupe on the face of the earth. She excused herself, and while she was absent, he whispered to himself, The little cujss! Got sense? Plenty of it! And then he checked his enthusiasm and reflected, but she ' ll be as coy with the next man. Why should I care? Yet somehow, Ben did care. Down deep in his heart he yearned for her, let her be as intangible and fickle as the rainbow, still he did want her. Ben was absorbed until a noise broke the meditation. He glanced in that direction, and out through the vindow, he saw Jessica and that same strange friend. There stood the little, confiding Jessica conversing with the man whom of all creation he most detested at that moment. She looked sweet; Ben sour. But she returned like a summer wind and flourished her wand-like hand, exclaiming, I want you to meet my brother. He is the only one, and all the world to me. I always feel sad when he leaves. Ben bounced like he was aided by automatic springs and stretched out his hand to the once abominable stranger. Even that early Ben saw avenues of love and success in every direction — her brother was the most welcome guest of all the earth to Ben. The two exchanged salutations and Jessica and Ben resumed their seats. Ben ' s limbs began to tremble as the critical moment drew near. He rose to go and passed one furtive glance at the forever lost diamond, extended his hand to say goodbye. She grasped it wdth such a responsive feeling that Ben knew that she really loved him. Don ' t you want your ring? she asked un.steadily. Not if I can get you, Ben gasped, staring her squarely in the eye. No, take the ring. Here, take it! she demanded, blushing scarlet. She was endowed with dignities, poses and reserves, and Ben thought her cold. He stood speechless; she gazed toward the carpet, her pulses thumping wildly. She didn ' t mean a word of what she had said. She was frightened half out of her wits that he would take it. That meant perhaps months of sadness to her if he did. He didn ' t want the trophy now. He would have given a dozen like it for her! She would have thrown twice its worth away only to hear him repeat his last statement. Neither knew what was in the other ' s heart, so, there they stood, at the dawn of a new life. The silence grew oppressive beyond expression. Jessica screamed through her tears, holding out the ring, Oh, here, take it! take it! So you think you can get along without either the ring or me, do you? asked Ben, without the least evidence of self-praise. She stared in shocked silence. He continued, I was so hasty at first. You are so dear, so kiml to me. I have been cowardly and intended to be a jealous robber He halted abruptly. With a wild gesture, he offered himself to be dealt with. She shook her brown head, and her one dimple deepened, changed to a fairy well of happiness, and still looked at him speechlessly. Won ' t you keep the ring, Jessica? Her face lighted up under its shadow of modesty. It was at last meet that she should open her heart. Not without the owner is mine too, she answered hesitatingly, and looked away vith blurred eyes. The confession leaped — piercing and alive to his eyes, to his brain, and he stood stricken mute. An unconscious moment pa-ssed. He reached for her hand — not the one with the ring on it — and hers involuntarily closed about his, and she gave a faint astonished cry. Presently she came closer and gave one evidence of her sincerity and yearning which he craved of her at that mouKMit with his troubled blue eyes. And that is how Ben became the .Judge ' s nephew, and wliy she still wears the diamonel. Arthur D. Gore. SEXATE COMMITTEE.
