This class was made up of seven young ladies and three young men. At this time Prof. A. C. Reynolds was president of the institution and associated with him were three strong men who are no longer at Cullowhee. These men were Professor Olin H. Dean, who died in 1918, Professor H. B. Jones, now teaching English at Wake Forest College and Professor L. B. Abernathy who entered the ministry. Former President Reynolds is now teaching in Buncombe county. Alphabetically arranged the seniors are as follows: Miss Margie Abernathy. Miss Abernathy was enrolled as a student while her father was head of the Mathematics department in this institution. She was one of the youngest and brightest in her class. After graduation the family moved to Charlotte taking Miss Margie with them. Miss Lena Ashe. Miss Ashe was a bright pupil and • very popular among the student body. She was especially proficient in English and Mathematics and all her work was well above the average. After graduation here she attended college and has since been variously engaged. Miss Kathleen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Conroy, and grand-daughter of Judge D. D. Davies, enrolled while her father and mother were residing at Forest Hill, the Davies residence. Miss Kathleen was very studious, reserved, and cultured. She made an enviable record and graduated with honors. Since leaving here she h;is attended college, taught in Birmingham, was later married and is now living with her husband, Mr. W. F. Jones, in Birmingham. Mr. J. Donald Cowan. Donald, son of Mr. and Mrs. M. D. Cowan, Sylva. N. C, entered Cullowhee after completing the high school work at Sylva. He was then quite young. He was a good student and made his work in the alloted time even though he took occasion to capture the daughter of the president of the school in the meantime. However, he only got a mortgage on her while here and it was not until after leaving that the knot was tied and he knew he had her "for better or for worse." The many old classmates and friends of Donald and Mary will be glad to know that they are now living happily together at Sylva, where Mr. Cowan is proprietor of the Buchanan Pharmacy. After leaving Cullowhee Donald entered Wake Forest College where he remained until graduation. Miss Annie Coward. Miss Coward entered here as soon as she completed the work of the grades. Living in the community she began at the bottom and graduated at seventeen years of age. Her course here was unbroken but for one year at Greensboro. Since graduation she has attended Peabody College, taught in this institution, married and is now at Chapel Hill, where her husband Professor W. O. Hampton is pursuing work toward his doctors degree. Mr. William A. Graham. Willie entered here in 1914. He was a fine boy, proficient in all his work, and took great interest in society and athletics. After leaving Cullowhee he attended college, taught, and finally settled in Hendersonville where he is dealing in real estate. Miss Annie Long. Miss Long, daughter of Mrs. Sadie J. Long, of Sylva, and grand-daughter of Mr. Mr. Hamilton Brown, recently deceased, of Cullowhee enrolled in 1913, She graduated with honors and since then has married. She is now living at Sylva, where her husband, J. Ramsey Buchanan, is employed in .lirtrical engineering. Miss Mamie Long, sister of Miss Annie, mentioned above, entered with her sister in 1913, and graduated at the same time. She was a bright student and made an enviable record for preparedness and punctuality. After leaving here Miss Long entered college, later taught, and now resides with her mother at Sylva.

Studied at Peabody College and the University of North Carolina and an- new living at Cul- lowhee when. Mr. Bird is employed as Dean and bead of the English Department. Our Hopes For The Erosophian Literary Society -1926 People sometimes vo\ into a careless habit of never wanting anything I hat they fee] they an- unable to get, yet. wo fool it is often wise for US to want many things in order to get only a few. Nevertheless, the new hopes for the Erosophian Literary Society are within reach, as our large number of faithful workers or members are always looking forward to higher ideals, higher standards, and many improvements. Someone has said "New Year Resolutions" are not a good means of showing improvement unless you have been thinking of thi>m during the entire year. This may be true. Yet, we feel as if it is often a wise idea to establish a few well selected principles to guide our actions during the year. The members of the Erosophian Literary Society see many opportunities for improvement, and even room for "New Year Resolutions." We can certainly profit by our past mistakes. The few poorly prepared programs of the former year or term may be blotted out by the success of the many "hoped for programs of this term. Can we only put our trust in the newly elected program committee, and I am sure that we can, there will be no reason for any noticeable weakness or criticism as to our programs.
