i m r Reverend Daniel J. McHugh CM., M.S., F.R.A.S. Treasurer of the University J lATHER McHUGH, besides being the efficient treasurer of the University, has At won renown for himself and for De Paul as a man of singular achievements in the fields of arts and science. In 1923 he was honored with a membership in that world famous body of scientists, the Royal Astronomical Society. For six years he held the office of President of the Department of Colleges of the Catholic Educational Society and was appointed to the Commission on the Standardization of Colleges of the same association. In addition to these noteworthy activities Father McHugh has made himself a master of the Queen of Sciences — philosophy. In this, as in everything else he undertakes, his untiring genius had led him to the heights. Yet he carries on the exacting duties of Treasurer of a great university with a completeness that leaves nothing to be desired. He is all that one might ask of a business man and of a scholar. He can turn his mind with notable success to either field of activity and in this ability can be equalled by few. Page 21
