Professor Sutton had the keen sense «if humor, the devotion to his work, the vision, the indomitable spirit so indis- pensable to the founding and to the de- velopment of a worthy rtlpealional in- stitui ion.

He never betrayed a confidence. -11 0). button He would rather he true to his ideals and standards than to he popular. Kearney State Teachers College owes no small part of its efficiency, its stand- ing among colleges, the respect accord- ed it bv the educators of our state to the untiring efforts, to the influence of the one who lias finished I»is work among us. What we ail feel most deeply and can find no words to express is our irrepar- able loss in the passing of Professor Sullon ihe teacher. Professor Sutton the mail. He who was ever seeking to under- stand the unknown lias entered upon the most glorious of adventures, the mystery and privilege o( death. Yet he lives and will live in the hearts and lives of students, fellow teachers, and friends than which there can he no greater, no more lasting monument. Page .'4
