Floyd George Ballentine, Ph.D., Professor of Latin Lan- guage and Lileralure. Vtn- the lii-,st year Prof. Ralleiitiiie heads the department of Latin and his knowledge and pleasure in this kind of education are lieightened by several summers abroad.

Frank Eugene Burpee, A.M., Professor of Mechanical Engi- neering. ' ] he proldeni of caring for Bucknell ' s many buildings and large campus is a liig one, but in addition to this work, Prof. Pjurpee finds time to conduct the classes in Mechanical Engineering and take charge of shop work. His preparation as an engineer is an extensive one. Iiiit he refuses to consider it out of the ordinarv. Martin Linnaeus Drum, A.M., Professor of Surveying. Professor Drum spells work in his own fashion and proceeds to exact it from the students in the same way. He never loses s ight of the fact that Bucknell ' s purpose is education. He lias taken so many students over the campus in surveying work tliat he knows almost every blade of grass. His knowledge is broad in his wi rk and has been olitained through work in several of the largest . nier- ican universities. Norman Hamilton Stewart, A.B., Sc.M., Assistant Professor of Biology. The study of life in the laboratory and in nature is Prof. Stewart ' s hobby as well as innnerous trips to Turtle Creek and his little cabin.

He has investigated many branches of Biological studies and his varied experiences are interesting be- yond description. 13
