loyal, brave and great-hearted man will ever be cherished in the hearts of the friends and alumni of our institution. Dr. Menges was in many respects a striking character. He was possessed of an indomitable will a.nd perseverance, and to those pur- poses which he considered worthy of his time and attention he en- tered into the accomplishment of the-m with such intensity and deter- minati-on that seemingly insurmountable difficulties were overcome. Like all broad-minded, aggressive men, he entertained decided views upon most subjects and did not hesitate to express his opinions, nor to combat those of others, which he thought were unwarranted. As a natural result of this antagonism he was looked upon with disfavor by some, his motives misconstrued by o-thers, and in many respects he was entirely misunderstood by those not intimately acquainted with him. He was broad-minded and liberal in his views, and, while aggressive, keen-witted and a strong antagonist, he would not take a mean advantage even of an enemy. He was kind-hearted and ever ready to listen to a sto-ry of distress, and render help, if he consid- ered the subject at worthy one. Many of the students can recall oc- casions where his material help and wise co-unsel, always given un- grudgingly, has lessened their weary load and encouraged them on to greater efforts and the final accomplishment of their purpose. He believed that life meant activity and progression, and as a consequence could not tolerate stagnation in anything, nor inactivity in tho-se aro-und him. Could those of his friends who knew him best have been present on tha.t bea.utiful june- morning, when the con- suming, fervent heat resolved back to its primal elements all that remainedof his material form, they would have realized, that in carry- ing out his last request, how well his life's motives were fulfilled, for the chemical elements thus freed were given back to the Great Store- house, there to take up new work in Nature's Laboratory and carry on that which had already been begun.
