JOHN NICHOLAS LINK History "Link" Baltimore, Maryland Baltimore City College Irving Literary Society; Y. M. C. A.; Theo- logical Association; Honorable Mention, '24. "Truth. from his lips prevailed with double sway, And fools, who came to scoff, remained to pray." R EVEREND LINK is quite an asset to our class. He is one of those men who can't be kept down. 'Way back in 1914 he entered the "Univer- sity at the foot of the Hill," but was captured by a member of the fair sex and so he left prep school to continue his education in the "University of Hard Knocks." After seven years of successful pastoral work he became the minister of the Deer Park Methodist Protestant Church and, as he was only five miles from the seminary and college, he seized his opportunity and passed the Seminary course in record time. Still not satisfied, he plunged into collegiate life, at the same time perfecting his theology with post-graduate work at the Seminary. He seeks not fame, yet when fortune wishes to honor a man who knows the meaning of honest toil she picks out Link. He has but one aim in life and that is to glorify his Father, God, and everyone on "College Hill' 'is glad to own him as a true brother. The class of '25 is proud to have such a man in its midst and we are sure that anything we might prophecy will be eclipsed by the actual accomplishments of a man whom we all love and honor, ]. N. Link. [51}
