Professor Elmer A. Jacoby y O name is more linked nor dearer to Perkiomeu Seminary than that of Professor Jacoby. Professor Jacoby was born at Coopersburg, Pa. He graduated from Kutztown Normal, and from Lehigh University in 1895. The year following his gradu- ' N ation beheld him as an instructor of Mathematics at Perkiomen. From this time forth, his advance was rapid and his career successful. He became Vice Principal of Perkiomen in 1905, and it is as this official that we know him best. He was a confidant and adviser rather than a critical awarder of penalties. The one thing which he required of all was truthfulness. No matter how small the offence, when combined with dishonesty, it was well-nigh unpardonableg any act, when truthfully confessed, was excusable. By his kindly nature and his sympathetic disposition, he rendered him- self loved by both professors and students. As a teacher, he had unbounded success. His processes of reasoning, clear explanations and logical conclu- sions made the intricacies of mathematics clear to all. He was married to Miss Iva Markley in 1901. In the fall term of 1908, he was offered and accepted a professorship of Mathematics at Central High School, Philadelphia. Though he is at Central High School, Perkiomen claims him as her own, and he is ever enshrined in the hearts of those whose stay at Perkiomen he rendered so pleasant.
