The "grim reaper" came, his relentless scythe, from which none of us can hope to escape, fell upon our friend, tallied to be sure of his harvest, then hurried on. We have lost a friend. From the very beginning of our course, Dr. Boom took a personal interest in each of us and tried to make things as easy as possible *for us all. For three years we studied diligently under his guidance, a variety of subjects dealing with chemistry and its allied branches and then one day he was taken from us. His loss is irreparable. What shall we do? Having graduated from the Medical School of the University of Pennsylvania in 1885, Dr. Boom became interested in the science of Physics and Chemistry and continued to do postgraduate and research work along these lines until 1891 when he was given the Chair of Hygiene in the MedicO'Chirurgical College, which post he held until 1893. At the same time he was appointed Associate Professor and later Professor of Chemistry and Toxicology in that institution. It was in this same year, i. e., 1891, that his ability became more widely known and his fame spread so much that he was given the diploma of the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle. The Philadelphia Dental College was at that time in need of an Instructor in Chemistry and it was Dr. Boom who was chosen to teach the subject. He did it in such a manner as he alone could do and so well was it done that he was elevated through the various steps of Assistant, Associate, and finally to the Professor' ship of Chemistry. He was also made Professor of Physics, Metallurgy, Hygiene, Materia Medica and Physiology, and taught in the Medical, Pharmacy and Chiropody Schools of Temple University as well as the Dental School. He was able to do this by the consolidation of the MedicO'Chirurgical College with the University of Pennsyl' vania at which time he severed connections with that institution and devoted his full time to Temple University. 6 When the United States entered the World War, Dr. Boom was commissioned a Captain in the Medical Corps and at the time of his death held this rating in the Reserve Corps. He was the author of several works, the most important being "Essentials of Physics and Chemistry," "Laboratory Guide in Hygiene and Physiologic Chemistry," "Lecture Notes on Chemistry, Hygiene and Physiology/'. "Contributions to Medical and Dental Journals." Among other things he was a member of the County, State and American Medical Societies.

D. C. Those memories are cherished possessions and should never be for' gotten. Do not forget about your classmates and school as the years roll on, but let us return on Alumni Day and exchange reminiscences of those never'tO'be-forgotten days.

Solicitor Eighteen Dr. Conwell and Temple University Forty-two years ago, beginning with a class of seven divinity students at night, Dr. Russell H. Conwell laid the foundation of a University which has grown and prospered into one of the ten largest institutions of learning in the United States. That class of seven has grown into a student body of 10,500 and over 100,000 men and women have benefited through the teachings of our great founder. Numbers, how ever, meant little to Dr. Conwell. He was concerned with quality. Himself almost an incarnation of a Knight Templar and a man who had proved the tempered steel of his spirit in the Civil War, he had the essential qualities of a commander and counsellor of men. He was able to impart these qualities to his students. Here was a farm boy who became a leader of men. A poor youth who hungered and thirsted for education, and having achieved his aim saw to it that other poor youths should have their chance for schooling. It is recorded that he helped wholly or in part for the education of over 10,000 students. Dr. Conwell enjoyed life not through physical or material pleasures, but by men tal and philanthropic efforts. He found pleasure not in accumulating wealth, but in giving it away and to say that he gave away to Temple University and her sons and daughters one million of dollars would be putting it mildly. He collected a much greater sum than this through his internationally known lecture, "Acres of Diamonds,1' which was delivered over one thousand times to several millions of people, the vast El majority of whom profited by the home-spun, common-sense of the story. How much money he gave will never be calculated, but it is known that upon his death he left only a few thousand dollars. This was the leader who began in Philadelphia forty-two years ago to teach young men and women how to live and reared a school of divinity numbering seven students into a University of 10,500 students scattered through the eleven schools and three hospitals of which it is composed.
