E Mo12i'oN tumor cot I F VV. B. SPELMAN G. I. WALKER Dean of Men Dean of Women A man of quiet efficiency is our former Business Manager. One who lets students fully explain their ideas, and who then carefully and tactfully pointed out to them why their propositions were impractical. A man who was sympa- thetic with student activities, but who saw to it that no plan went through which would not fit in with the educational ideal of the school. Thi sman has recently been called to Washington to serve in a government office. ln our farewell to Mr. Skinner, we thank him for his faithful intelligent, and helpful service to our school and to us, and wish him the very best of luck in his new work. ln an office we see a woman sitting behind a cluttered desk. A timid girl enters, and is immediately set at her ease, by a welcoming smile and a cheery greeting. An attentive silence while an explanation is made, a thoughtful moment of quietness, then a suggestion, a bit of advice, or a tactful reprimand. Now we glimpse her graciously pouring tea at one of the monthly affairs the women give. ln answer to our question this woman replied, I learned in college that not all the information important to possess lay outside the covers of books, that l very much wanted the power to think straighty that l wanted to be one who could keep an open mind until all the evidence was in. For the latter we are grateful. And so, to Miss Walker, our Dean of Women, we give our heartfelt thanks for her helpfulness, her excellent judgment, her ability to look ahead, and her splendid gift of being able to tell a story well. ll gt.

Tl-TE ADMTNTSTRATTCDN Ol-7 THE DR. I.. M. HRUDKFL L- T- SKINNER Superintendent Business Manager In an office of quiet dignity we find the superintendent of our college. An amiable man, who is anxious to be friends with all the students. A man who is only too willing to cooperate with them in their plans and activities, and who encourages them in all they do. A man who can guide school affairs through troublesome times, and keep them on a non-political basis. A man who can keep his head in a time of crisis, and can hold out for what he believes is right. A man who while in college enjoyed knowing people of all kinds, and who has the ability to get along with them. To Dr. l-lrudka we extend our thoughtful appreciation forall he has done. Shouts and bursts of raucous laughter in college campus. The door of the college office opens, and a man strolls out, towards the group of boisterous students. A mild suggestion, then little crinkly wrinkles around his eyes and a slow shy smile. A clever remark by one of the students, a dryly humorous retort by the man. Now the fun is on again, but this time it is more subdued. The man comes to admonish and stays to laugh. This man, in answer to our query, replies, Yes, modestly, I state the truth-for me the most from Princeton is- l am a Princeton man-inspired by its famous spirit, the honor system, Woodrow Wilson as a teacher, the comradeship of men, the ideal of scholar- athlete-gentleman, and the eternal loyalty to 'Old Nassau'. lt is to Mr. Spelman, our beloved Dean of Men, that we pledge our love and gratitude for his humor, his friendliness, and for his just being Spel.
