JOHN B. PHILLIPS, Ph. D. Professor of Economics and Sociology. When a silver-tongued orator, hot, Spouts all night a lot of his rot, Do I cock up my ear And believe all I hear? I should say, Why, most certainly not. (On leave of absence. Second Semester.) WM. HENRY PEASE, B. A., LL. B. Professor of Lan . I love to talk to you Whenever I see student faces light With deep intelligence, in range of view, To talk is my delight. PROF. J. B. EKELEY, $BK AKE ®NE 2 H Professor of Chemistry. I know my chemistry, And if you don ' t know yours you ' l flunk, that ' s all. I have, for sluffers, no kind sympathy, Who flunk — then raise a squall. RUSSELL D. GEORGE, MASS Professor of Geology. No lady ' s man am I; I spend my time with rocks and rougher things Than dainty womankind. My soul ' s reply To science calling rings.

GEORGE NORLIN, Ph. D. Professor of Greek. With mild suggestion of half hidden mirth Combined with giving out the best of lore That lingers in the musty classics store, Has brought thee followers of honest worth And liking for thy work has had its birth , Thy illustrations of the days of yore Would make one hear the blue Aegean ' s roar And see departed scenes upon the earth In which we live with all that glamour past. Through such as thee, with full and fluent speech, The spirit of the ages dead shall last And every earnest scholar ' s heart shall reach. The value of thy work is understood By few, — by them ' tis reckoned boundless good. E. BARBER QUEAL, i H Professor of Physiology. Dad is my favorite name, For that I am not much to blame; Always in the past, And e ' er to the last, 1 o the boys I ' ll always be the same. GEO. H. CATTERMOLE, 9. Y 3 . Professor of Diseases of Children. The man with the gladiator steed Does many a good, useful deed ; In curing the child With method so mild. He ' s the fond mother ' s true friend in need. MELANCHTON F. LIBBY, Ph. D. Professor of Philosophy. Serene, ' mid classes ' cares, He dreams and talks, and talking teaches truth. Yes, bold beliefs he holds, and boldly dares Retell his thought, in sooth.

T B II Dean of College of Engineering. Professor of Civil Engineering. Uncle Milo ' s fond of shops, And he works all the men Overtime, lest they be shirks And must take the shop again. He, in sorry, sorry plight, Put the chemicals to flight; Now his domineering system smoothly works. VIVIAN C. HENMON, Ph. D., Professor of Psychology and Education. All day I ' ve tried to see Through introspection, methods tried and true, Wherein the trouble lies — the fault with me — That I cannot teach you. ' ' H. S. EVANS, B. S., E. E., i = Professor of Electrica l Engineering. A smile may be a mask of grief, A tear may hide a joy ; But no deception for belief Would I with you employ. My smile is genuine.
