Graduate School, 1920g 11113 K, li 9 11. Assistant Professor of German. Professor Bailey's German classes are a joy to all his students. Those classes are combined courses on philosophy, art fGerman, of cou1'se, and Frenchl with a litle discussion period thrown in for good measure. In his interesting, rambling talks, he guides the young people who are studying under him toward a sure N appreciation of the beauties of the German language-of the 1 beautiful, worthwhile things of life. 01 ro EM11.

Mr. Plath is evidently an instructor who makes subjects in- teresting. lf you don't believe it, watch thc crowds whiclrflock into his classes in Ornithology, Enthymology, and even German! If you want to spend an interesting half-hour just get him to talking about birds and insects. You'll not consider it time wasted. we assure you. JOSEPH RICHARD TAYLOR JosEPH NOYES HASKELL 91 Lincoln Street, Melrose, Mass. A.B., Amherst College, 18965 S.T.D., Andover Theological Seminary, 1900g Andover Fellow at Harvard University, 1910-11. Instructor in German. Professor Haskell is most patient in his treatment of young people who are struggling in the grip of first year German. And we thank him for that rare quality of his-the ability to disregard the small and petty disturbances of life aml to keep his gaze ever on the beautiful and good achievements of human endeavor. 39 Boylston Street, West, Watertown, Mass.

So this year we're not going to mention his slang and movies. We hope he won't feel offended. But we do know that his clever jokes and witty remarks make his classes most interesting. And that registering for one of his courses is a sure F. P. toward an intensely enjoyable two or three hours every week. ' T ge 1 . I 1 ' ,f-'s 5 - s , '.

JOHN MILTON WILI.IAIvIS 67 Hammond Street, Cambridge, Mass. A.B., Oxford, 1921g M.A., Harvard University, 19233 Instructor in English. Going into a brand-new class is as much of an adventure as going into the depths of an African jungle, and it is no ex- aggeration to Say that the one, in this case, was made as thrilling as the other is. But the thrills here came in the exploration of Victorian poetry, and the nuances of words and ideas were far more subtle than the violent contrasts of a jungle. The degree of N f 9 7 i tion of a course is apprec a conditioned by the interest of the , instructor and the humor that spiced the course in Victorian poetry is not the least of what made the course enjoyable. WINSLOW HARDING LOVELAND 29 Lincoln Street, Hyde Park, Mass. A.B., Dartmouth, 19145 A.M., Harvard, 1915g 111 B K. Instructor in English. Mr. Loveland'S capacities and abilities are not confined merely to freshman composition classes. He is equally proficient in a Chaucer class, or any other advanced English group-and his powers of conversation and lecturing are never even diminished by the awesome countenances of upper-classmen. A likable, interesting teacher. We are glad that he has come to C. L. A.

Professor of Germanic Languages and Sanskrit. I A good mixer! A trite expression, yet one which very ade- quately expresses our attitude toward Professor Perrin. His easy joviality mingled with a quaint professorial dignity clearly I indicates his love for traveling the hidden highways of the world. Wanderer. adventurer,--an eternal student of life.

True wit is nature to advantage dressed, What oft was thought . But ne'er so well expressed. That is what this distinguished gentleman of our faculty has. True wit! One has only to hear his lectures. The size of his classes attests to his popularity. Oxford has left its mark of cultural old-world dignity upon him. Versatile? Yes. He at- tends lectures with the Prince of Wales and is connoisseur in foreign toothpaste. Both with equal ease. FRANK NOWAK 634 Huron Avenue, Cambridge, Mass.

Rather a forceful expression, but so has he burst our bubbles of sentimentality. The Past becomes a reality. The Pilgrims no longer stalk our New England Coasts, as romantic personages, but as Hes-lt and blood men who-according to this historian-have left little on the records of our earlier history from ns ordinary mortals, he wants inspiration not facts. Rather, he prefers the former to the latter. Well-Time will tell! I I WILLIAM BUNNELL Notrrotv 60 Kirkland Street, Cambridge, Mass.
