B l s A i S l l homa George, is full of humor and noise, and is gifted as a Writer. Then comes the two Houfs, Big and Little. They are natives of Callaway county, splendid students and good fellows. The one is a mining engineer, the other a preacher. Henry Hellyer hails from Russia. He has learned well the English language and is fast getting the better of his text books. He too, is a preacher-one of the noble five. Next in order is the preacher triumverate, Tucker, Gunn, and Duncan. VVhen time has smoothed the rough edges, then history will write, With all their short-comings, they meant Well. Tucker Wears glasses, Gunn is handsome, and Duncan is short of stature. After the preachers come the educators, Settles and Wallace. These two young peda- gogical aspirants have for months been dreaming of the time when every col- lege shall recognize as authorities Settles, the historian, and Wallace, the linguist. Black and Harner are residents of Fulton. They are men Whose abilities make the lustre of the class shine the brighter. The former will enter business, the other expects to be an architect. John Ready is the short of it in the class. But happily he is often heard and felt by his classmates. He has of late developed a propensity for stinging his professors. Finally there is J. W. VVilson, the politician. VVith dogged determinations, he ever Works toward the fulfillment of his cherished ideal to become president of the United States. T As time passes and a commencement brings to an end the history of the class, a mere beginning is made in the individual history. With a true faith, a clear brain and an unfaltering step, the 1910 graduate enters the battle of life. Let us hope that he will iight well, let us believe that he will end fight- ing Well. For life so well begun must not terminate in failure. 23
