What the yearbook said

If there is any thing in a current suspicion, we believe that “Eddie” is going to be a great man some day. This “fad” bases its superstitions upon the fact that if your name has a certain dignity about it, why you simply needn’t worry. Fate has ordained you for a high position in the world, and we are doubly sure that this will be true of “Eddie” when we always remember him as a manly and good-natured fellow.
