As a Councilman and Scliuol Director, Professor Tustiii accomplislied miicli to link together the interests of the town and tlie University. In the matter of streets and paxements, culverts and grades, rendering the Institution accessible from the townward side, we owe him much. He also brought the good-will of the townsfolk to the University. He was much loved by them for his neighl)orliness, and for his active interest in the peo- ple, their children, their churches, their schools. He frequently supplied neighboring pulpits of all denominations, and always ministered to the reali- zation of practical religion. In the house of mourning lie was a welcome visitor, whose comfort came from experience of its worth. Professor Tustin was a clear and forcil)le writer. His lectures were prepared with great care, and represented his mastery of the subject in hand. It was not the day of uni ersity presses, or his reserve might have been overborne, and ' olumes of lectures, bearing his name, might have seen tlie light. How ' aluable a A ' olume might now be gathered from his papers! When L ' Acexda boards tire of biography, let them seek these treasures, and give the older alumni a grateful surprise as they read a lecture by their old Professor. The newer men and undergraduates mav be pleased to see a specimen menu of Aliiia Mater ' s earlier table. Dr. Tustin was a man of faith and prayer. He believed, therefore he taught. His words were singularly free from cant. Pie was a man of tender emotions, easily stirred; yet he was reticent when their expression could produce no good effect. He regarded the Church of Christ as the highest institution on earth. The Christian college was dear to him, as a child of the Church. His work for both was work for his risen Lord. The Tustin Gymna.sium fittingly memorializes the first Alumnus Pro- fessor, because he helped to give final shape to the project as the contribu- tion of the Alumni to Ahiia Mater. He was the newly appointed Chair- man of the Committee, entering enthusiastically into his work, when he was stricken down in his harness. Almost spontaneously the plan of the gym- nasium took on the memorial character. His interest in the physical well- being of students was second only to his interest in what he considered higher values. Thiis, the Tustin Gymnasium speaks to the youth of after times about the mens sana in sano corpore, and recalls the good and true guide of former students to ways of high self-development, and of conse- crated Christian learning. 15
