Prof. Andrews, Prof. Dillingham, Dr. Kee- sing. MRS. MARIA M. HOERMAN—She instructs in German, her native tongue, for she was born in Germany, educated in Ber- lin. and later taught there. She is an alumnus of the University of Hawaii as are several of her children, which makes the university a family affair with them. Pleasant and eager to assist is she in her kindly German, yet cosmopolitan, way. PROF. CARL B. ANDREWS—is the katnaaina, native-born Professor of Engineer- ing from Pahala, Kau, island of Hawaii. Ill's chief concern in life, it appears, are transpor- tation, tropical engineering, and civil engi- neering, and these have been very much in evidence on Maui, Oahu, and Philippines. The rumble of war drums today reminds him of the time he spent as captain of the engineers in 1918. PROF. FRANK T. DILLINGHAM— Professor of Chemistry and Sugar Tech- nolog)-. who has been a decided factor in the advancement of scientific methods in sugar and pineapple production. One can see this former chemist of the H.S.P.A. strolling to his office across the campus each morning with his black scotty, leashed to one hand, and a cane in the other. DR. FELIX M. KEESING—claims Pen- ang (Straits Settlements. British Malay) as his birthplace and the University of New Zealand as his alma mater, which he exhaust- ed of degrees. We serve warning to the ex- ponents of the divine origin of man lest they are identified with monkeys by this leading Hawaii anthropologist. Soccer is his pastime. 24

PROF. IRVING OTIS PECKER—And here we present our most honored and re- spected diplomat and Professor of Romance languages, Honorable Pecker. With one lin- ger on France and another on Spain, he still finds time to cultivate the Latin in our plastic souls. DR. W. NORWOOD BRIGANCE— What is a Successful Speech? and “How Fast Do We Talk?” Our speech specialist can, perhaps, decide the oft debated question of sex difference in the field of articulation. His work in speech correction where it is most needed, in the short time he has liecn with us, is worthy of notice. Soon he will l»e gone. Aloha! REV. HENRY P. JUDD—teaches Ha- waiian language and history in an institution where there are fewer Hawaiians than any other racial group. He is a Yale man, and also a graduate of Auburn Theological Sem- inary. Although born in New York, he re- ceived his earlier education at Punahou. PROF. HUC-MAZELOT LUQUIENS— lends the artistic flare to our scientific temper- uients. From far away Switzerland, he brings to us a world of color and form in oil paint- ing. landscape painting, still life, and etching, incorporating Hawaiian art within his scope of interest DR. MERTON KIRK CAMERON—An exponent of capitalism, yet a philanthropist to poverty. This, ladies and gentlemen is our Professor of Economics, whose sere dignity characterizes him as a typical scholar of the Old School. His volume of speech and his tireless theoretical analysis of gum-drop utility will long remain with us. as will his exams, unusual in number for a representa- tive of the Scottish Highlands. Mrs. Hoennann, Prof. Pecker, Dr. Bri iaiicc, Rn . Judd. Prof. Luqicns, Dr. Cameron. 4 .
