He is great in electrical lines; has gi-eat hopes of establishing com- munication with Mars, by means of the electric spark sent from a special apphance of his own invention. He is modest, yet aggressive ; bashful, yet a good speaker; hopes to be successful in losing the medal to some other college in the Oratorical Contest, where he represents us.

First he calls himself a student at WofFord; second, he looks out for a goat on East Main street. Once Egypt was very ill and thought his time had come. Kis friends heard him say, Get busy Ananias, your rival is coming. 23

apmonb punter Bominicfe XE-SYBERRY, S. C. Not learned at court nor versed in wit. But loved by those who know him l)est. Preston Literan Society. Dominicker, ' tho of the feathered tribe commonly known as the vard-bird, is nevertheless anything else than feather- legged. Tho slightly domesticated, this bird sometimes leaves this earth of fact and wings his wa y into the ethereal regions of poesy. His sedateness is especially noticeable, and the plaintive- ness of his morning call on examination mornings shows him to be a bird of wonderful sagacity. He views with masterful and lordlv eye the barnyard of the Sciences. There he is cock of the walk. tKtEotiore PrablEj) Buposc, DARLINGTON, S. C. ' I dare do all that may become a man. Who dares do more, is none. Entered January 1906. Team. Preston Literary Society; Senior Football Teddy, since his name is Teddy, has great hopes and high am- bitions. He looked over the great wood, just back of his home, in a vain effort to find the Big Stick, and says he is going to hunt it in Africa after he graduates. He is a good historian, a wonderfully fine lady ' s man — and wears tan shoes. The ladies say he ' s mighty cute — cute eyes, cute expression in his face, and especially cute in his football suit, which he wears with much grace.

ilutt)cr Clap Clrob PIEDMONT, S. C. ' ' Formed by thy converse happily to steer From grave to gay, from lively to severe. Member Preston Literary Society; Member Kappa Sigma Frater= nity. Luke is from Piedmont, S. C. All who have traveled widely are (|uite familiar with that thriving little city hid away in a cuj -like valley of upper South Carolina. Luther is his real name, but the girls all call him Luke. Since entering college, he has given much time to poetry. He never writes it, but just lets it pass over his .soul in inarticulate language. Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard are sweeter. Luke is also planning a trip to Seattle. He expects to go with Mr. Jew Harden and ofler to the public for sale that very useful commodity, soap. This distinguished salesman informs us that each box will contain six cakes of the best soap made, one bottle of perfume, one set of teaspoons and a toothbrush, all for 50 cents. Jfreb Wilson Jfclfecl CRESTOX, S. C. Besides, ' tis known he could speak Greek As naturally as pigs squeak. Treasurer Preston Literary Society ; Member of Gymnasium Team, 1907=08, ' 08=09; Class Baseball Team, 1907=08, ' 08=09; Football Team, 1907=08, ' 08=09. Orangeburg County claims Felkel, not because she wants him, but because she is anxious to put the best face on a bad fact. Music is a passion with Felkel. He utilizes all his spare time in studying it, and has made sufficient progress in the art to distinguish with a tolerable degree of accuracy the difference between Yankee Doodle and Jesus, Lover of My Soul, provided the latter is played on a pipe organ in a church and the former by a brass band in a circus parade. Felkel has not decided definitely whether he will be a truck farmer or the conductor of a crack orchestra. 24
