Professor Frank Albert, M. E. $ $ NK of the heart-warming things'-about Millersvillc is the almost universal love and loyalty of her graduates. This feeling shows itself in numberless ways, the most striking of which, is perhaps, the devotion with which many of them have served her as teachers. Over half of those whose names are now on the roll of the faculty were once numbered among the students As a result, our teachers understand the school; they have grasped its spirit: they are in touch with its history, its aspirations. its difficulties, its advantages. Among those who have labored longest for ns. is Professor Frank Albert, to whom this memento of the class of 1902 is dedicated. Professor Albert was bom in Huntington township, Adams county. Pennsylvania, and during his boyhood attended the common schools of Hunting-ton. After leaving school, he taught for several years in Adams county. In 1.870 he entered Mil-lersville and graduated in the class of 1872. Immediately upon his graduation he was elected to a position in the faculty, as teacher of mathematics, which he held till 1888. Returning in 1S90, lie resumed his work, and has continuer] it till now. making in all twenty years of service. Mr. All ert teaches arithmetic—teaches it in a manner that amazes pupils who come to him with unthinking, inaccurate methods. The comprehensive knowledge of the subject acquired in his classes, and his excellent methods, many of them original with himself, are enough in themselves to make study under him a high privilege ; and when he adds to these training in thoroughness of thought and accuracy of expression. his classes become a mental tonic to every member That he may spend many more useful years with us is the heart-felt wish of all
