THE GARNET AND WHITE 23 John Robert Simpson General “Happiness seems made to be shared.” Everytime wc think of “Baby Day immediately there comes into our mind's eye a picture of John, dressed in knickers, a Buster Brown collar, and. mind you, bare knees.

We can truthfully say that he is the best natured member of our class, for. no matter whether the joke was at his expense or not. he always came through with a smile.
