ities have constantly advanced the institution. But that he might devote more time to his Chair of Physics, he has resigned the Regency on three different oc- casions ; however, each time the Board of Curators has refused to accept his resig- nation. If they are spoiling a good scientist, they are at least keeping an able Regent. Among the forward steps of the University during Dr. Hyer ' s regency is the completion of the main building, also the founding of several new chairs. The Chair of Natural Science has become three different departments: the chair of Chemistry, the Chair of Biology, the Chair of Physics; the latter of which Dr. Hyer now holds. The Chair of Biblical Literature has also been founded. But more especially due to Dr. Hyer ' s efforts individually is the raising of the college curriculum, which has placed the college work of S. W. U. in the forefront, and for this advance Dr. Hver should have the largest share of praise. In character, Dr. Hyer is one who should be known well to be appreciated. He does not dwindle by close acquaintance. The most serious charge against him is that his retiring nature obscures his own light. The respect of the student-body — a good index of character — is commanded by Dr. Hyer without effort. Self- control gives him such influence over the students that he is known among them as King Bob. Dr. Hyer ' s times cannot now be written. If he reaches man ' s allotted three- score and ten vears, more than half his work in life may still lie in the future.
