from Wilder Hall odds and ends, clippings and chat, directed to almost any one of the many offices en route. No teacher keeps more faithfully and enthusiasti- cally in touch with former students than does he. His influence upon our campus is permeative and benign. Always does he plead for vision, and for beauty, and for art. He lures us out into the woodland of Toby. He brings to us from afar exhibitions of painting. He has faith in us, and quickens our faith in ourselves. He sets a winsome example in the infor- malities of friendliness. Moreover, he is a Christian gentleman, and may be found in his pew, rain or shine, on every Sunday morning. He stands for the graces that bless, for the life that endures.

Jfrank . OTaugi) TT WAS during the Great War. The scene was an army hospital. From the • - office of the chief of the Reconstruction Service emerged a sergeant, a New York City teacher of stenography who had offered his professional talents to his country for the emergency. Astonishment was on his face. The Captain , he exclaimed, is the most extraordinary man I ever met. He knows everything. He has actually been telling me something I did not know in my own specialty. The captain was Professor Waugh, and the incident was characteristic. For Professor Waugh is probably the most versatile man on our campus: landscape gardener, author, editor, lecturer, photographer, flutist, farmer, fra- ternity officer, executive, teacher. And probably other titles should be added to this imposing array. Moreover, he is actively engaged in all of these roles at the present time. Hardly a vacation passes that Washington does not send him out into one of the great national parks with a special problem to solve. W ho ' s Who in America lists under sixteen titles the books he has written, and his contributions to magazines are innumerable. Just now he is the editor of a shelf of horti- cultural books for Orange, Judd Company. His lectures, with or without stereopticon, are among the most popular of our extension offerings. His flair for photography finds its most captivating expression in his ever growing gallery of local celebrities. He often appears upon concert programs with his beloved flute. For many years he has been associated with Professor Sears in the Bay Road Fruit Farm. He is an active national officer of the largest Greek letter fraternity. Kappa Sigma. x s head of the Horticultural Division, his gift for administration commands the admiration of the faculty. And the enrollment in his courses bespeaks his following among the students. One cannot help but share the astonishment of the sergeant at the versatility of this many-sided man. He was born in the Great West, and this he has never forgotten. From the far and fertile prairies he brought back to New England his unbounded faith and zest in living. From experimental Kansas he borrowed his independence in judgment and his sympathetic interest in all things new. It was in Kansas, too, that he found that gracious lady who was to become the mother of his six de- lightful sons and daughters. So the West is dear to his heart, and it is a pleasure to hear him chant Carl Sandburg ' s famous line: There is a high majestic fooling in the corn. Socially, Professor Waugh is unfailing tonic. Being interested in so many things, he naturally finds all people pleasant, too, and invariably reduces each new association to a common denominator at once. His fund of anecdotes and his ready repartee are the delight of every gathering that he attends. His wel- come to the Butterfields, after their return from China, stands out in my memory as a veritable gem of felicitous badinage. Daily the campus mailman carries 10
