The Students Creed 



I will blot out of my life the failures that come 
from wasted hours, and write into it the success that 
comes from time well spent. 



I will keep life's page clean and fill it with the 
record of knowledge gained. 



I will fix my eyes on the goal of my ambitions 
and hold mv hand to its task. 



I will work hard, hope high, and live up to the 
best that is in me ; then I can write at the end, "Well 
Done."

FRED SIM ON TON 

Roopville, Ga. 

Ciceronian; President Society '23; De- 
bating Club '23. I 

Fred came to it. & M. in the fall of 
'20, and has been a model student ev- 
er since entering here. If you want 
anything done, call on Fred, and if he 
can't do it himself he'll get it done 
some way. He has the best disposi- 
tion of any of the Seniors, and this 
combined with worlds of ambition and 
a determination to give the best to ev- 
eryone has made him verv popular 
with students and faculty alike. 
"To Be Or Not To Be." 

ZELMA BARR 
("Pig") 

Tyus, Ga. 
Ciceronian Literary Societv; Secretary 
Ciceronian three years: Vice-Pres'dent 
Student Council; Member of Debat'ng 
Club; Leading Lady in "A Rose of Ply- 
mouth Town; Contestant in Recitation; 
Georgia Day Speaker. 

Zelma came to us in the fall of '21, 
since then she has been active in all 
student affairs. 

She is very industrious, and studious; 
her greatest pleasure is derived from 
attacking a stack of hard lessons, and 
coming out with a clear idea of each. 
She possesses worlds of ambition and 
a determination to succeed in any- 
thing she undertakes. We predict for 
her a brilliant career and even fame 
in the profession she chooses. 
"When dark clouds gather, be your 
own little sunbeam." 

JOSEPH FOWLER 

("Joe") 
Duran, Ga. 
Hawthorne; Basketball '23; Baseball '23. 
Joseph came to us last fall with 
streaming banners from Duran High. 
He is no longer among the rabble, for 
since arriving he has risen among his 
fellow-students. It can be justly said 
that his actions speak louder than 
words, and his actions are always of a 
commendable sort. This young man is 
a student of the first magnitude, and 
a hard worker in general. 

"It's not wise to be wiser than is nec- 
essary. ' '

L. M. TURNER 

("Tunk") 
Carrollton, Ga. 

In point of years of attendance, L. M. 
is the oldest student at A. & M., for 
he entered school in the fall of 1918, 
and has been one of the most faithful 
pupils since entering. Here 's to you, 
Tunk, may the years bring you the 
realization of your fondest dreams. 

' ' Perseverance is the keynote to suc- 
cess." 

JOSEPHINE GLENN 

("Jo") 

Chipley, Ga. 

Ciceronian; Secretary Ciceronian Liter- 
ary Society; Contestant in Music. 

Josephine came to us in the fall of 
'22, and entered the Senior Class. She 
is a .iolly girl, and has taken part in 
all school activities. We do not know 
what she intends to do in the future, 
but we are sure that she will make a 
success of anything she undertakes. 
When she leaves here we feel sure that 
the old Alma Mater will hold her daugh- 
ter dear to her heart, even as we do at 
present. 

' ' The world 's no better if you hurry, 
Life's no longer if you hurry." 

LENTO N MURPHY 
("Preacher") 
Felton, Ga. 
Ciceronian; Football Team '23; Vice- 
President Senior Class '23. 

This young man has been at A. & M. 
about as long as any of his fellow 
class mates. He is very solemn, but 
once he starts talking he has an au- 
dience listening to his logic and theory. 
He possesses determination that was 
brought out in Football which will al- 
ways be a means of success. His 
friends are many, and he won them by 
being a friend to them. 

"If you stay where you are, you will 
have to run like everything."

CHARLES NEAL 
Carrollton, Ga. 

Ciceronian; Baseball Team '23; Won 
Second Place as a '21; and is a day stu- 
dent. 

During the four years that Charlie has 
been with us we have never seen him 
angry. The nearest to such an unde- 
sirable condition was one morning 
when he fell down in a mud hole and 
had to go back home for some more 
clothes for the day. Charlie is some 
shark when it comes to making money. 
For he has all Carrollton for the paper 
trade. If you want anything done ap- 
point Charlie. School has meant so 
much to him; he has worked so faith- 
fully and well, Charlie, we give you 
our best wishes. 

"Be silent and safe; silence never be- 
trays you. " 

CECIL COMBS 

("Miss Combs") 
Frolona, Ga. 

Ciceronian Literary Society; Assistant 
Matron of Dining Hall; Senior Repre- 
sentative of House Council. 

Cecil came to us from 5th District A. 
& M. and entered the Senior Class. 
We are sorry that she was not with 
us longer, for we hate to lose such a 
unique character. She is seldom silent; 
at the same time she forms her opin- 
ions and goes her own way unaffected 
by public opinion. Her modesty, loy- 
alty, frankness and variable moods 
will always win friends; and we know 
that she will get what she wants. 
"Never do today what you can put 
off until tomorrow.' ' 



BUELL PRITCHETT 

("Buell") 
Franklin, Ga. 



Baseball 
Place in 



Ciceronian Literary Society;

440 in '18. 

Buell first came to A. & M. in the fall 
of '17. While here he made good in 
athletics, winning the 440 yard dash 
in '18. He did not come back to A. 
& M. from the fall of '19 to the fall 
of '22, when he entered the Senior 
Class. He has made many friends and 
is one of the best students in class.

BLAKE PULLEN 
Boopville, Ga. 

Football Team '22; Baseball Team '23; 
Ciceronian Literary Society. 

Allow us to present ' ' Hun. '' Do you 
notice that smile? It is compounded 
and it is for the girls too. If you 
don't believe us ask the ladies. He 
makes love to all the girls in school 
but don't get away with any of them. 
He is a bit of bluff in his way, but he 
usually gets by with his bluff, for peo- 
ple have long since learned that he can 
make good when called upon. 
Friendly, affable, cosmopolitan, he will 
make himself perfectly at home, even 
at Genola. But when you meet him he 
will come to you with that outstretch- 
ed hand, and it will be like a message 
from home to you. 

"A lion among ladies is a most dread- 
ful thing." 

DESTER BARKER 

("Niekey") 

Franklin, Ga. 

Secretary of Society; Georgia Day 

Speaker. 

It takes most of us four years to finish 
our high school course but here is a 
lady who is so brilliant that she has 
done her Junior and Senior year in one 
and kept an A plus record too and our 
teachers are not so generous when it 
comes to marks. 

Dester came to us from Carrollton 
High and in the one short year we 
have known her we have learned to 
love her very much. She has a win- 
ning personality that will go a long 
way toward making her victor. 

Best Wishes 
"Above all things to thine own self 
be true." 

LOVIC O'NEAL 

("Icky") 
Frankling, Ga. 
Ciceronian; Football '23; Basketball "23. 
' ' Icky' ' is one of the live wires of 
A. & M., and has done his part in 
keeping our school at the top. He 
possesses what you call school spirit, 
because he "does noble things, not 
dreaming them all day long. ' ' As we 
bet on you in the games at school, so 
will we bet on you in the game of life. 
"I am the master of my fate, I am the 
captain of my soul."

SARAH ELIZABETH PETTY

Palmetto, Ga. 

Hawthorns Literarv Societv: Secretary 
Class '21, '22; Secretary Society '22. 

Slarah entered school in 1920. During 
the time she has teen here, she has 
made her impression on the intellec- 
tual life of A. & M. Her gracious word 
and cheerful smile have meant much 
to the brightening of our lives What- 
ever line of future activity may be 
ler choice there can be no doubt of 
success. There is nothing that she un- 
dertakes that she cannot accomplish. 

"It is the patient holding out that

Newnan, Ga. 

Hawthorne Literarv Societv; President

'23. 

"Bud" is a four year man, and is one 
of the most popular men in the class. 
He is a splendid athlete  a regular 
cyclone on the football field. He is 
also a good student, and we feel sure 
he will make good in college. Go on, 
we know you will succeed.

PAUL WILLIAMSON 

Franklin, Ga. 
President of Senior Class; Ciceronian 
vice-president once; Football '22, '23. 
Paul came to us in the fall of '21. He 
has taken an active part in all school 
activities since entering. He is an up- 
right boy, always ready to give his 
best to anything he undertakes to do. 
His favorite study is mathematics of 
which he is a shark. We see for him 
a bright future.

MATTIE IRENE MURPHY 
("Deacon") 
Felton, Ga. 

Ciceronian "Literary Society; President 
Student Council; Contestant in Recita- 
tion. 

Here is a charming little body who 
came to us from Berry, in the last half 
of her Junior year. She readily made 
warm friends with all of us. This year 
she had the honor to be elected presi- 
dent of the House Council of the Girls 
Dormitory and she has worthily stood 
by her post. She tells us she has not 
decided upon her life's work but when 
she does we are expecting to hear 
great things from her. Irene is an 
' ' all round girl.' ' She 's not too seri- 
ous, nor too gay, but a jolly good fel- 
low. 

Bon Voyage 
"Do unto others as you would have 
them do unto you." 



HOYT McCLENDON 

("Mac") 

Banning, Ga. 

Hawthorne; Member Debating- Club '23. 
Class Poet '23. 

Hovt has been with us since the fall 
of '21. He will try anything that any- 
body else will. Little things do not 
worry him, and big things do not come 
his way. Hoyt possesses a very bril- 
liant mind and is capable of over- 
coming difficulties. 

"So live that when you die the un- 
dertaker will be the chief mourner."

LONNIE B. ARNETT 
("Sam") 
Franklin, Ga. 
Ciceronian Literary Society. 
Lonnie was rather late making his 
appearance, but once settled he proved 
a worthy addition to the class and to 
the school. He has taken an active 
part in the Ciceronian Literary So- 
ciety, and other school activities. Ev- 
ery thing he does is crowned with gen- 
erosity and perseverence. In short, he 
possesses all the characteristics which 
go to make an ideal man. 

"Give to the world the best that you 
have, and the best will come back to 
yeu." 

BESSIE CLINE 

("Grandma") 

Bowclon, Ga. 

Secretary of Sunday School; Librarian; 
Member of Debating Club; Contestant 
in Ready Writing'; Class Prophet. 

Bessie is one of the quietest girls in 
the class. You should see her daily 
schedule, not a breathing space from 
"rising to retiring" time. 
She is a great Ciceronian, even made 
it a point to be here before school 
opened in order to gather in new 
sheaves. 

She enters training next year as a 
nurse, and we know of no one endow- 
ed with better qualities for her chosen 
profession than she. Accept our best 
wishes for every success. 

"Work, for the night is coming." 

WILLIAM WESLEY 

("John Wesley") 
Woolsey, Ga. 
Ciceronian Literary Society. 
William came to us at the beginning 
of the spring term of '23 from the 6th 
District A. & M. We sincerely regret 
that he has not been with us for a 
longer time, for he 's a jolly good fel- 
low. We do not know what he's plan- 
ning to do when he leaves school, but 
we expect to hear great things of him. 

"Learn, Labor, Love."

Poem 




LEAVING SCHOOL 

(Hoyt McClcndon) 



Free from toil and free from study. 
We, the class of twenty-three, 
Leave old A. & M. behind us. 
Glad from lessons to be free. 

But we leave our dear instructors, 
With a sad yet thankful heart 
For the kindness they have shown us 
And the joy they did impart. 

And to the succeeding classes, 
We, the Seniors, leave advice : 
That they study with a vigor ; 
That they treat their teachers nice. 

Trust the hardships that are many. 
Only in a smiling way. 
And we're sure that you will pass them. 
With the ease and joy of play. 

For many years we've struggled, 
From the bottom we have come 
Yet the future's to be climaxed, 
May it end in joy and fun.

Senior Class Prophecy 




I am a prophet  true I do not wear the traditional robes nor do 
[ carry the staff as did the prophets of old still I am a prophet. To 
the corridors of time 1 have but to lift up my eyes to behold the mem- 
bers of my class each raking his place in the scheme of things. 

In the ward of a hospital, I see Zelma Barr bending over the pain- 
racked body of a patient  serving God and humanity as a nurse. 

Paul Williamson is a United States Senator. He is using his 
influence in behalf of his people by passing laws that are of great value 
to the farmers of Georgia. 

Cecil Combs I see serving a prominent criminal lawyer in the ca- 
pacity of a stenographer. 

Fred Simonton is a teacher of math in one of the greatest colleges 
in America. He has the reputation of making trig and calculus as in- 
teresting as a thrilling novel. 

Lonnie B. Arnett is devoting his life to the poor and needy in the 
slum districts of New York City. 

Dester Barker and Buel Pritchett are married. He is a prominent 
physician in one of the busiest cities of the south. Dester is spending 
her time putting into practice the principles taught by Miss Mitchell. 

Josephine Glenn becomes a noted pianist playing in the Metropoli- 
tan Opera House in Atlanta. 

In a log-cabin on a mountain side, Irene Murphy is devoting her 
energies to making useful citizens out of the eager but ignorant boys 
and girls. She is assisted in this work by her brother Linton, better 
known to his classmates as "Preacher." 

I see Sanders Pike, better known as "Bud," allowing his love for 
athletics to guide his undertaking. He is coaching the best football 
team in America  that of Georgia University. 

At a polished mahogany desk in a handsomely furnished office sits 
one of the best bankers in America. I at once recognize this conspic- 
uous gentleman as William Choice.

SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY Continued 

On a deserted road in a western state I saw a ragged dusty figure, 
trudging on and on. I recognize this figure the once manly frame of 
William Wesley. 

I see Sarah Petty the patient wife of a poor hrick layer toiling all 
day long to help support a large family. The rude cottage, where the 
family makes its ahode is a real home hecause Sarah attended school 
at A. & M. 

L. M. Turner is clerk in a million dollar jewelry store. He has 
never married and there seems to he no likelihood of his ever doine so 
because he became disgusted with women during his last year at A. & M. 

.Blake Pullen is secretary of state and has for his lovely wife Addie 
Lee Daniel, who is also well skilled in politics. 

I see William Frye as one of the largest seedsmen in America. He 
also owns one of the largest truck-farms to be found anywhere. 

Charles Neill is a famous author. His masterpiece, "The Romance 
of Lucile" is taking the place of Cooper's Fiction as classics at A. & I\T. 
Hoyt McClendon is a successful lawyer in Chicago. 

In a crowded street in Atlanta I see Joseph Fowler, playing the 
part of a real actor  walking ropes stretched between two tall buildings. 

In a handsome farm home, equipped with every convenience, lives 
Olin Garrett. He says there's nothing like winning your bread by the 
sweat of your brow. 

Myself I cannot see. Just where I am, nor what I can do, I don't 
know. Perhaps, I am filling some tiny niche in the great scheme of 
things. 

I see each member of my class in different places, pursuing differ- 
ent vocations but wherever they are they are thinking of the happiest 
days of all that were spent at A. & ML

Junior Class Prophecy 




It was the night of the last secret midnight supper at A. & M and 
I had just retired to my room. 

Failing to fall immediately to sleep, due to a very queer noise out- 
side my room, I rose determined to find the cause and origin of such 
uncommon disorder. h 

Nervously I peered through the door and beheld a most despicable 
sight, caused by the conglomeration of the cats that scurried away and 
were seen no more.  dIIU 

I again retired to my room as one who wraps the drapery of his 
couch about bun and lies clown to hideous dreams. I a hort while

of Bill James. He had become master in the science of picking Yale 
locks. 

Turning further into its pages we found where Blanche Walker 
had become a great singer and sang over the Radio every night. 

We also saw in the paper where Harvey Arnett had died, leaving 
a large fortune. He was survived by a wife, four sons and three 
daughters. During his life he had been very skillful at the art of mak- 
ing sand piles out of rocks. His death was very sad to both of us. 

O. D. laying the paper down again began to tell me of his many 
trips. He said that Cheatem Peeler was serving a life term sentence 
in the penitentiary because of failing to pay his income tax. 

Pie said while he was touring over France he. met up with Neal Tol- 
bert, who had succeeded in winning a beautiful young girl and settled 
down as an artist. 

He also told me of Vena Cook, who was running a Cafeteria in 
New York. He said he took one meal at this place and the music for 
the occasion was rendered by a two-piece jazzless jazz band, composed 
of David Davidson and Ben Avery. 

Elbert Williamson is instructor in the art of riding buffaloes across 
the Sahara Desert. 

Roy Hayes is a confirmed old bachelor  when Katie proved false 
to him, he lost faith in all women, and they say he has never been with 
a woman since. 

He told me that George Phillips had won great fame. The high- 
est result of his efforts was the production of a hybrid of the crossing 
of the hog and chicken, and thereby producing of the breakfood  ham 
and eggs. 

It was with great pride he told me about our good friend, Jim 
T. Mickle. Jim T. was athletic director in one of the large colleges 
of the West, Jim T. and Maidee Camp had both become great athletes. 

Lena MicKinley had finished college, receiving a B. S. H. E. de- 
gree and is now teaching Home Economics in old A. & M. Pie said 
they all seemed to like her as she had had the job for four years. 

Katie Smith has had many exciting" experiences in her various 
love affairs. She had at. last married  having found a man she really 
loved. She is now living with her husband on a large ranch.

Junior Class Hisforu 



In the fall of 1919 one of the best classes that was ever enrolled 
began its journey toward "seniorhood and graduation." The class then 
numbered about twenty. As freshmen all were studious, ambitious and 
eager to learn. That same earnestness has made it the class of classes 
each year. 

The Sophomore year was one of the patient struggles for this il- 
lustrious class. But at the end of the year they were rewarded by pro- 
motion. What a grand and glorious feeling  only two years more. 
The Sophomore Class was composed of Katie Smith, Lena McKinley, 
Ray Todd, Monte Tolbert, Neal Tolbert, Clayton Underwood, O. D. 
A damson, George Phillips. David Davidson, Roy Hayes, Hicky Allen, 
and Charlie Walls. 

The Junior Class of 1923 was by far superior to any previous 
one. This, their third year was marked by excellent work  almost sur- 
passing that of the seniors (if they will pardon the presumption). It 
really seems that every day, in every way, they grow better and better. 
The new members of the class are : Maidee Camp, Blanche Walker, 
Guy Camp, Vena Cook, Christine James, Bill James, Adel Nutt, Elbert 
Williamson, Weyman Strickland, Olen Arnett, Harvey Arnett, Willie 
Cook, Jim T. Mickle, and Cheatem Pealer. From this class we expect 
the best ; for they know the way, to make the most of every day  so 
success is inevitable.

JUNIOR CLASS POEM 



The Junior Class outshines 'em all 
When it comes to knowledge, 
We're all in preparation 
For our future years at college. 

W r e stud)' and progress with a will 
Together, each girl and boy, 
And when we've topped the hill 
We'll beam with radiant joy. 

Our motto is "Be Prepared" 
For the day is soon to be 
When our lives may be compared 
To a ship upon the sea. 

We'll meet the wind and tide of life 
In the clays that are yet to be 
But oh, Juniors, be prepared 
When we put out to sea.

Frances Burson will be matron of the dining hall at A. & M. 

William Overby will be a famous inventor, and his wife, Clarice

Thus do I prophesy  only time can prove me right  or wrong.

SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY 



History is history  the Sophomores will get theirs later. This is 
practically a new class, only seven of the last year's members have re- 
turned. The class is larger than it was last year, and in our estima- 
tion at least, a more important one. 

But we each and every one seem fully to realize that we must now 
take the decisive step that will determine our future. We have in our 
class, boys who will become ministers, lawyers, doctors, farmers, sena- 
tors, and possibly presidents ; and girls who will become teachers, old 
maids, and wives. 

Give a few more years and there will be something worth writing 
about. 



A Poem on Examinations 



I walked into the building. 
So cold, and bare, and bleak, 

And as soon as I was seated. 
My knees began to squeak, 

The fire was roaring loudly. 
With hardly any noise, 

I looked first at the "girls. 
While gazing at the boys, 

Everyone was quiet. 

And as busy as a bee 
For every one was looking hard 

To see what they might see. 

The teacher spoke out suddenly 
"Now children you must play. 

For you surely know by now. 
This is examination day."

Aihleiics 



Backed by the student body and faculty, athletics at A. & M. are 
participated in to a great extent. Our teams of Football, Basketball, 
Baseball, and Track have been very successful this year. This was ac- 
complished by hard work, good coaching, and a strict observance of 
training rules. Although we did not win all the games we played, we 
put up a hard fight. 

We are glad to say that some of the athletes who once adorned our 
field are now playing on the varsity of some of our well known col- 
leges. Our Athletic Association now consists of the entire male stu- 
dent body, whose spirit in upholding the teams is a great help to the 
boys on the field. The girls, too, encourage the players, and attend all 
the games that are in a reasonable distance. Their presence causes 
each bov to fight a harder and a cleaner game. Our motto is "Win 
Fairly," and we have never been known to win a game in any way save 
hard playing and determination. We believe that to play hard and lose 
is better than to play easy and win. 

In our contests, we have had as opponents some of the best High 
and Prep Schools in the state. We gladly, but not boastfully, report that 
we have won over most of them, especially in baseball. We attribute 
this year's success in athletic activities to our trustworthy and compe- 
tent coach, "Uncle Jimmy" Woodall.

Hallowe'en Party 




On the afternoon of Hallowe'en, the following note was sent out 
by teachers and pupils : 

From eight o'clock sharp 
'Til way after three, 
Wild looking ghosts 
At A. & M;. will be. 
So on this special occasion 
'Tween the hours just said, 
Please be in the auditorium, 
Instead of in bed. 

This was an enjoyable event. Supper was served in the dining 
hall at six o'clock, every one was asked to wear a mask. There was a 
five course dinner, prepared and served by the Domestic Science Class 
under the supervision of Miss Hanson and Miss Mitchell. 

At eight o'clock the most mysterious looking figures appeared in 
the auditorium of the Academic Building. They had every conceivable 
shape from an old-time ghost to real costumed people. 

The building was charmingly decorated in green, black, and orange 
paper, with cats, owls, witches and other Hallowe'en symbols placed 
about the room. 

Mr. Hatfield's costume of the old time ghost was beyond compari- 
son. Monte Tolbert and Melissa Cochran as red devils were excellent. 

The Seniors had charge of the affair, and gave a short play in 
honor of the occasion. But possibly the most interesting event of the 
evening was the story of the dead man by Miss Mitchell. While she 
told the story, the lights were turned off, so as to make everyone feel 
that the story was real. 

After the exercises, a party was given. The evening was a great 
success, and was thoroughly enjoyed by all. 








An Entertainment 



On Dec. 16, the Hawthornes entertained the Ciceronians. We 
first met in the auditorium, where a short musical program was ren- 
dered. In this, "The Jazz Band" went out on the stage and played, 
"Smiles." The musical instruments consisted of everything imaginahle, 
from a tin pan to a real violin. 

We next followed the hand to the dining hall, where an old fash- 
ioned candy pulling was given. 

After this we reassembled in the auditorium and plavecl games. 
Every one seemed to have had a jolly time.

The Literary SocieHes 



The Hawthorne and Ciceronian Literary Societies were organized 
for the purpose of broadening the minds of the students, and of teach- 
ing them to be at ease when addressing a crowd of people. They have 
accomplished much good in the school. Each society has about the 
same number of members. Every year the old students race to get 
the new students to join their society. 

They meet once a week  every Saturday evening when interesting 
programs are rendered. Every member is compelled to respond when 
placed on program. 

About once every six weeks, the societies have a joint meeting, and 
one of the societies entertains the other after the meeting. 



Georgia Day Exercises 



The annual Georgia Day program was rendered by members of 
the Senior class at the dining hall, Feb. 12. The program was as fol- 
lows: 

The Settlement of Georgia Lovic O'Neal. 

Georgia Men  Dester Barker. 

Georgia's Literary Activities  Zelma Barr. 

Georgia Products  Blake Pullen. 

Georgia Women  Fred Simonton. 

Georgia, the Empire State of the South  Joseph Fowler. 

The speakers were introduced by Lovic O'Neal, the first speaker, 
as follows : Fred Simonton, the ladies' man; Dester Barker, the man's 
lady ; Zelma Barr, the literary woman ; Joseph Fowler, the farmer ; 
Blake Pullen, the woman hater. 

This was indeed an affair. A delicious supper was served in 
honor of the occasion. 

When the exercises were over we all met in the school auditorium, 
and sang several songs. 







HOUSE COUNCIL 



At the beginning of the year student government was installed, 
Irene Murphy was elected President and Zelma Barr Vice-President. 
From each class was chosen one representative. 

This has proven one of the best things to develop the morale of 
the student body. 

House Council meets every two weeks to discuss methods of im- 
proving the rules of the dormitory, etc. 

Proctors are elected who see that each rule is observed. 

The feeling of responsibility that each girl feels for the good of 
the school and of the Girls'Dormitory in particular has done much to 
develop moral character among the students. 



RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES 



The Religious Organizations at A. & M. are the Sunday School, Y. 
M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. Both these organizations serve the purpose 
of making religion not a beautiful dream, but a practical thing to be 
lived up to in every day life. 

Religion at A. & M. cannot be measured by the number of reli- 
gious organizations. It is rather a spirit that one feels in every activity 
of the school. It is an inspiration to our boys and girls to live clean, up- 
right lives and to play all games fairly. 

To make Christianity practical and compelling is not easy, but it 
is what is being done here at A. & M. 



THANKSGIVING AT A. & M. 



On Thankvgiving Day the students at A. & M. were given a half 
holiday ; which was celebrated by games, walks and hunting. 

At six o'clock supper was served in the dining hall. Immediately 
after supper, the Ciceronian Literary Society invited the members of 
the Hawthorne Literary Society to the auditorium, where they enter- 
tained by a play, "The First Thanksgiving" followed by a minstrel, "Dr. 
Baxter's Servants." Later they all enjoyed a social hour, at which 
several games were played.

The Normal Class 



A course in teacher-training was offered to the Senior Class this 
year. Mr. Ingram taught the course, which included the making out 
of lesson plans and practice teaching in addition to the theoretical work. 

When the course is completed, each pupil will receive a license to 
teach.

If our efforts though childish and pool- 
May have added a bit to life's gaiety, 
Then we ask of them nothing more. 

And we have gained what we wished fnr. 

The success is not ours alone 
Kind assistance has overcome troubles. 

Though difficult paths we've been shown. 

For Miss Earle's great help when sore needed, 

We our gratitude cannot express, 
For her helpful advice and her patience 

Sincerely our thanks we express. 



The Annual 



The readers get the pleasure, 
The writers get the fame, 

The publishers get the money, 
And the editors get the blame.
