He admits that he is not orthodox, hut he possesses very definite and decided ideas about things nevertheless. We wish he had more chapel duties to perform. He wants to retire but how can Earl- ham get along without him ' B.S., M.S. Purdue University B.L. Earlham College Sc.D. Cornell University Words fail us. but never Miss Doan. It would take an automatic rapid-fire dictionary to carry on an intelligent conversation with her. She helps us to discover and develop our latent possibilities. Her splendid personality is pure gold without alloy. MARY E. BERTSCH EDWIN P.

Amherst Prof. Root ' s juvenile appearance and air of innocence is enough to camouflage his official position even in the presence of the most sophis- ticated. Under his seeming impass- ivity there lurks a spirit of jollity. He really comes from Boston al- though Miss Parker will never be- lieve it. One needs to have taken track to keep up when he gives notes.
