This char- acteristic has been largely developed in college and not long ago on a class hay-ride she was heard to exclailn, 'iWe'll not need gloves coming home anyway. NEAL ALLEN BENNETT, NEW VVILINIINGTON, PA. Philo, Town., flssistfmt in C'7Lem.ist1'y. One of the most distinguish! ed members of the class of ,OS is Neal Allen Bennett. In 'fact he is Dad's right hand man in the stock room.. Neal is al- ways happy and wears the smile that won't come oH'. However, he occasionally gets fussefl but never indulges in profanity beyond the use of the word cornstarch , What vocation in life he, will follow we are unable at present to state but from his proiciency in English it would not be out of the way to prophesy great things in that line.

uiington on each telegraph pole and every tree, posters bore' witness to our philan- thropic spirit. But, sad to relate, the minds of the Freshies had not yet developed sufficiently to appreciate this magnanimity, and they insinuated that it was put there through a lack of knowledge on our part. However, let us consider the source and pass it by. ' As Juniors, the individuality of our class became still more marked. The per- sonality of each member became more strongly felt. There is Alice Wray, our Maud Muller, and Eleanor Clark and Anna Barackman, our learned pedagogues, who are the staunchest material of 'O8. We point with pride to our two wise men from the east, John Shrader of Bethlehem and Fred Kelso of Galilee. It is known only to a few that John really came not from Bethlehem of Judea but from New Bethlehem hard by a distillery near Brocton, Our class would not be complete without Kirk Thompson, our Beau Brummel, who adorns his physiognomy with the most exquisite down, commonly called side-burns, nor must we slight our baby Nadem Henernesf, nor Emily Redmond, who never gives us anything but straight goods, nor our Southern warhlers, the Texas Kcontingentf' Indeed, P0S's brilliant lights have shown in many directions. In society, in the class-room, and in athletics she has been foremost. She always has been and always will be the hope of her allies, the dread of her foes, and the pride of Westminster. C. D., 'O8.

FRANK CUMBHNGS BACHOP, XVARREN, PA. Philo, llilson Club. is noted as a philanthropist. Joining the class of 1908 in its infancy, Frank has had the grandest of' opportunities for becoming renowned. He is proof against the Co-eds, even going around a corner in order to avoid an accidental meeting . Though his great fault is to butt in all conversations , we must not lose sight of his rec- ord as an athlete, especially as a polo player. To him, there is nothing new under the sun . Bachop is a hard student, and JAMES CLARKE BELL, GRQEENSBURG, PA. Philo, Kelly Club, Class Pfresiclenl II,' Eel. Agroj Holcacl II-Ulf Banquet Toast If TOC!Sl'll'LClSlC7' U5 Junior Contest III. Nicknamed after the emblem of one of our large national political parties, he is one of the shrewdest politicians in col- lege. However, Rooster's thoughts are not all centered on politics for occasionally we see him wandering 'around with a dark-haired maiden, not even heeding the dinner bell. Clarke is an excellent student and has a. very amiable disposition. He has also a few faults, but he has made some good reso- -i.l 1l-1. . lntions which we hope, with her help, he can keep. 36
