An Appreciation of Professor Henry W. Spangler' I highly value the invitation which you have given to me i0 CXPYCSS my appreciation of the life and work of Prof. Henry W- Spangler, to Whom thls year's Class Record is dedicated. My only regret is that I am to Say what is to be said in a very few words. When a man has served Pennsylvania with the highest efficiency and with truthfulness and honor for twenty ve years, t -Ii e ears of service he is entitled to open recognition. But when the twen y ,V y I f h' l'fe u to this year, all the more IS cover one-half of the entire span o IS 1 p your choice a just one. ' Prof. Spangler, as we all know, was gra uate rom and soon thereafter took charge of the Mechanical d P d fi the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, and Electrical Engineering Department at the University of Pennsylvania, of which, from the beginning, he has been the Head. It was only a few days ago that, in company with Prof. Spangler, I went to the top floor of the new building, and was cheered by his spontaneous state- ment, when he said to me: r Everyone who goes through this Engineering Building leaves with the thought and expression, that, if one wishes to see the best School of Engineering in these United States, he must come to Pennsylvania. What Prof. Spangler said is recognized to be true. So much of the constructive work of the world, so much of the increased happiness of the world, depends upon engineering and upon graduates from a great School of Engineering, that Prof. Spangler must have his highest happiness in the knowledge of the contributions which he has made during the twenty- five years of this constructive work and to this increased happiness, He is still young-by his University life we will call him twenty-five years of age. May he be many, many years at Pennsylvania! A fu ze 1909. dm
