Professor Arthur M. Brumback A real man, in the true sense of the word, is rare. Few men at the end of their life work have earned the title. Of Professor A. M. Brum- back, it can truthfully be said — the elements So mix ' d in him, that Nature might stand up And say to all the world, ' This was a man ! ' The world, slow to react and oftimes tardy with its awards, recognized him and gave him a place in its heart. After a long, hard struggle with the Grim Reaper, our beloved pro- fessor was relieved from his earthly cares, and on the twelfth day of August, 1916, his spirit departed for the better world. Why this friend and helper should have been ' harvested ' when so much needed, — Solicit not thy thoughts with matters hid; Leave them to God above. As head of the Chemistry Department, his wonderful success proved beyond question that he was peculiarly adapted to his chosen profession. Respected and loved by all, honest and sincere in everything, a thorough Christian, a true and helpful friend at any and every time — all Denison — alumni, faculty and students, mourn the loss of their professor, who As a cloud of the sunset, slow melting in heaven. As a star that is lost when the daylight is given. As a glad dream of slumber, which wakens in bliss, Hath passed to the world of the holy from this. 6
