- 1 qwva 'V what lowa College Means l'o an Alumnus By Rev. James L. Hill, D. D. + i , There is a saying credited to Dr. Lyman Beecher, that The best people in the world are Yankees enlarged . In a finer, purer, higher degree than any other place on this hemisphere, Grinnell is typical of these persons at their best, and is vitalized by their heroism, toil, and aspiration.
