6 ll THE leirime lie .l THE FACULTY PRESIDENT H. H. APPLE.-There is an office in the Science Build- ing marked President, which they say is Dr. Apple's office. If you want to find him, above all things, don't waste your time going to that office. Dr. Apple is very proficient in conducting' chapel. He gets through the service in shorter time every day. PROF. H. H. BECK.-This man is the despair of Freshmen and men seeking high marks. He injects industry and knowledge into his victims by means of low marks and an ever strong supply of gas lectures. Efficiency to the last detail is his motto, and woe unto the hapless student who enters his office with a dirty unknown bottle. PRoF. J. NEVIN SCHAEFFER.-Prof. Schaeffer has the very envi- able task of convincing care-free college youths that Latin, Greek and French are easy. Perhaps they are, most of us, however, study them under him. Prof. Schaeffer works hard and expects everybody else to do likewise. His classes proceed under forced steam from bell to bell. History records that once he dismissed a class three minutes early and that twice he has cut a class entirely. DR. H. M. J. KLEIN.-'Df. Klein is always in a hurry, but never gets there, as far as lessons are concerned. One of his favorite ex- pressions is: I wish I had time to take up this phase of history with you, but we must hurry through this epoch so that we can spend more time on the next. He is opposed to vacations,-at least it would seem so by the amount of work he assigns just before every vacation. He never uses steam-roller methods in conducting recitations, but he demonstrates so much with that long right- index finger that we fear some day it will shake off. .-.I8...

If 2 E l QRIHFLMMZ lfeel PROF. A. V. HIESTER.+PfOf. I-Iiester has so much to say and so little time in which to say it that he omits half the sounds of half his words. His by-word is Work, and it does not take him long to see whether a fellow's talk is the result of work or of bluff. The great trial of his life occurs every day when his illustrious son stamps into class five or ten minutes late and dad cannot ball Ernie out as he desires to do. Prof. C. N. HELLER.-AHCI now abideth Chess, Polar Bear and Greek, these threeg but the greatest of these is Polar Bear. Though F oxie does not believe in missing a recitation his classes annually give him a one-day's vacation. Unfortunately they always forget to inform him of the fact. ' Prof. C. E. MEYERS.- Gentlemen, you will notice that I am not so generous this year with my marks as I was in former years, said Charlie as he informed about half his students that they had Hunked. In the classroom he starts talking on some subject off the lesson, and keeps it up for an hour or so, at the end of which time he says that more ground must be covered. Prof. W. F. LONG.-This mathematical gentleman believes in giving tests of five questions at twenty minutes past the hour. For doing this he receives the silent blessings of his victims. Always willing to help anyone as much as he can, he is liked by all who come in touch with him, in spite of the aforesaid tests. Prof. W. E. WEISGERBER.- Bill is a fine fellow, well-liked not only by his students but by all who get to know him. He knows a vast amount of Chemistry, but he has to stroke his chin to draw the knowledge from his mind.
