Book excerpt: Excerpt from Snips and Cuts, 1911 Besides Mr. Harding we have two other teachers, this being their first year with us, Mr. W. B. Davis and Mr. Pierce Wyche. The first of these, Mr. Davis, teaches Latin, Greek, German, French, and if need be, English also. Mr. Davis hails from Warrenton, N. C.' He is a graduate of U. N. C. Since leaving college he has taught in several other places besides here. Last year he was with Davidson, teaching Latin and mathematics. The previous year he held a position with Catawba College. Mr. Davis has won a place in the hearts of all of us who have undergone his thorough and strict, but beneficial discipline. At the social he is one of us. Out of the school room he is a kind and thoughtful friend. During recitations he is all of these, a composite blending of all his virtues in one, which, reinforced by his extensive learning, pedagogical strictness, serves to make him a universal favorite among the students of Charlotte High School.
