CHARLES SUMNER HO WE. ,f hm MIN ,filglggpgfcis-Q I HE JUNIOR CLASS has decided to dedicate this annual to Prof. Howe and if in this they are to be congratulated. It would have been difficult for them to make another choice which would have been so acceptable to the general fi, Jig ! student body. F5325 kg if Dr. Howe received his college training at the Massachusetts State College and Boston University from which institution he graduated in 1878 with the degree of B. S. His class was quite a prominent one, containing a number of men who l '-'R . f 7' I U. ' . . I in 7. ,V fn 5X . fu .X JSM. X ' '2 Su.

The year following his graduation he was appointed principal of the Albuquerque QNew Mexicoj Academy and remained there until 1882. He resigned at that time to continue his mathematical studies at johns Hopkins University. In 1884 he was called to the chair of mathematics and astronomy at Buchtel College and remained there until he was called to Case. In 1887 the degree of Doctor of Philosophy was conferred upon him by VVooster University. He came to Case in the fall of 1889 to take the place of Prof. Reid who had been transferred to the department of physics. His presence was felt at once and he soon became one of the most popular teachers in the faculty. The work in mathematics, good before he came, has been steadily improved untll now it is safe to say it is not surpassed in thoroughness by any similar institution in the country. Dr. Howe has always been very much interested in astronomy. Wlien he went to Buchtel College he found practically no equipment for astronomical work but he soon succeeded in interesting 5

some of the Akron people and a small but complete observatory for his own and student use was the result. This was barely completed when he was called to Case and he had to begin all over again, While the observatory he has succeeded in building here is not large, it is complete for the purpose for which it was intended, i. c. instruction in practical astronomy for engineers. The new almucantar gives Dr. Howe an opportunity to do original work. It is certainly not necessary for me to write to Case people of Dr. I-Iowe's teaching ability. All who have been in his classes know how thorough he is, and also know how he can clear up a misty place in a demonstration. In closing I should like to thank the junior Class for the alumuni, for dedicating this book to one under whom most of us have had our training in the backbone of our professions, and for whom we all have feelings of admiration and friendship.
