14 THE HESPERIAN. do, the class stepped out under the trees in the yard while Kcnyon took a group picture of the class. Wednesday morn t ing the class was invited to bieakCst'l with Chancellor and Mrs. Canficld. It was interesting to note the military promptness with which each arrived there that morning. Notwithstanding the fact that they had gorged themselves for two days previous, they continued to cat for some time aflor the busy chancellor was compelled to leave for his office. The law students and regents weic also present and all were delightfully entertained as well as feasted. The Last Seniors. Charlotte Anilrus, firt on the list, gets red headed very easily. She has a very pleasant disposition however, and has made many friends while in the university. Although of aris- tocratic birth she smiles on the plebeian as well as the patri cian. She will probably remain at home until some worthy gentleman with another and more desirable name comes upon " the scene. Aver, Samuel Avery, who is often spoken of as a very i good man, is ncrt in alphabetical order. Mr. Avery is not so well known as many of his associates, but is well known in the laboratories. He is a scientist and has risen rapidly in that line of work during the past year or so. Mr. Avery's best' f friends are those who know him best. lie will teach next year in Hcatricc. We expect to sec him professor in some t great university at no distant date. James H. Harklcy the ladies' man, has achieved distinc tion in the military department and in athletics. lie sits on the front row in chapel and leads in singing. He has a solid girl in every state in the union including Kansas and the state of Columbus, Neb. He is probably the most modest young man in the class. He never talks except when he has ' some one to talk to. He is well known and well liked by his ' associates. He will depart soon for Indiana, where he goes to accept a position as electrical engineer. W. E. Hrook is a man who has made a reputation in the university as a musician, warrior, cane thief, engineer, and is l a member of the university triplets. Although not like Tennyson's Habbling Urook in all particulars, yet he gives , promise of going on' forever and is becoming famous. His . tripod will go with him. E. 1 Hrown was for three years a shining light in the class of '91, but has been engaged during the past year in the banking business and cxpicts to continue in the same calling , after graduation, lie has a solid girl. t Theo. Hruggcr, the jolly Schwcizcr front Nobesville, gives promise of constructing many shining lights in the world whether he ever becomes one himself or not. He will enter the world as an electrician and we ptcdilt that his path will be bright. He is not engaged, but may be before leap year closes. Mr. C. D. Chandler, the athlete and easy going man is 1 next in the list of renowns. Mr. Chandler, during the last - two years has been the main stay in our base ball team. He t has also done much for the foot ball team, and as business manager of such teams, is a rustler. He has a pleasant smile ' for everyone and consequently has a host of friends vho will miss him when he is gone. He will enter business' perhaps in Lincoln. ' Mr Horac; Clason, it has been o'isirvcd, walks like a ' duck, only more so. He has two faults against which wc t desire to warn the world. One is an inordinate desire to ' make jokes and the other is an equally inordinate desire to Tlattgll."' himself These stamp the man He is a gen Miss Minnie DePue is a young lady who has retained the very front rank in her class at the same lime that she has dis charged numerous and burdensome social duties. Miss De l'ue was the successful contestant in the last Chr.se and Wheeler contest. Her kindness, sociability and wit justly entitle her to the distinction of being the most popular young lady .nthe univeisity. Mr. Dinges is another scientist of consi Icrablc notoriety. He has acquired distinction in catching bugs and in artillery drill. It was also said of him on class day that he was well versed in political economy. Those who are acquainted with him say that he is not as fierce as he looks. Homer J. Kdmiston is the next personage with a history. EdmistoM is known in school as the classic. He is popular in society, in military circles and in the class room. He will probably specialize in political economy or if disliking a professorship will accept the picsidcncy. . Miss Eucgnia Gctner is a young lady who has a bright smile and pleasant word for everybody. She is one of the few who have been able to make their four years' course in less than the alloled time. Her ability to talk has led her into oratory with good results. May her shade nor her smile never grow less! The next member of this noted class in a yc.-tr or two will swing a Shingle to the breeze bearing the familiar legend, "C. A. Helvic, Pyhsician and Surgeon, Teliphone 9568." He will publish soon a treatise on "The Effects of Hoarding House Hash upon Crime; or Why the Hoarder Jumps his Hoard Hill." Paul L. Hibbard will tread a "beaten" path and extract the greatest amount of sweetness possible from the things he conies in contact with. He expects soon to return to his work in the Louisana sugar factories. He is still willingUo receive a limited number of ptoposals from eligible young ladie. This last is strictly confidential. Mamie Hullhorst is one of the most classical and reserved girls of the class. She rivals Miss Gctner in stature and is a thorough student in every particular. She will become a teacher. Prof. F. D. Hyde. The seniors consider themselves equal to any call upon their genius, but only one of them became a professor before he graduated, and that one was the aforesaid Hyde. Mr. Hyde is pretty, vain, conceited yet withal kindly and lovable in disposition. To end up with, he is captain of compiny D and a bi other to every other girl in the University. When Mr. Kcii)on was a little boy he used to wade in the Thames. His delight was to let the clams bite his feet. A hr grew older his ambition became higher. For six years he has patiently worked at his special line of investigation. The clams during this period have faithfully performed thiir duties cveiy chance they have secared during the university course of Mr. Kcnyon they have bitten his fingers. Now he feels that he needs a change. With his diploma under his arm he steps oat into the broad and unsympathetic world. Hut what will he do? It is possible that he may continue Jiis love for clams, but it s altogether likely that he will find sonic thing of a warmer nature on which to set his affections. Stella Kirker well known especially during the last year as class entertainer Miss KuUr has a very kind disposition and is very pleasant to all whom she meets. She :s an ener gctic and consientious woikcr in the class room and will alwasbe remembered by Im fnends.
