Yet experience shows that Trinity College many of these latter were really incapable, without some practice, of the self-guidance Reading Course which the course requires.

All will remember his informal classes, his • disapproval of final examinations and, most of all, his powers of expression. Of course no one could teach many years at Trinity without personal incidents of interest. There was the time Dr. Shepard went to his study for a moment's relaxation between classes. An undergraduate with dark circles beneath his eyes appeared at the door to deliver his assignment just as Professor Shepard was sipping a cool glass of milk. "My, but that looks good sir," said the stude.nt. "It is," Dr. Shepard replied, "but, I fear, not strong enough for your taste." One night Dr. Shepard was reading Poe's Annabel Lee to a mixed class in extension. The stage was set for a dramatic perfor­ mance - lights out, everybody still and quiet, and Mrs. Shepard in the back row. It was indeed a dramatic reading as proven by the inspired silence which followed. Suddenly a young female voice blurted out, "What's tomorrow's assignment, Professor?" Dr. Shepard turned on the lights, walked Odell Shepard slowly to the front of the class and said, as only he could say it, "Gentlemen and ladies AFfER twenty-nine years of teaching at - every cathedral must have its gargoyle."

a sub-freshman and perhaps the sub-fresh­ man's parents. Just what Fred says to these people as he takes them around has never been fully disclosed, but it must be good. As Dean of Freshmen, Fred has not had the time to take from his admissions and teaching work to do this job as thoroughly as he would wish. He has, however, straight­ ened out many a perplexed freshman. His naturalJy cordial manner inspires confidence in even the timidest first-year bosom, and freshmen have been known to stand in line in the crowded admissions office for his valued counsel. Finally we give you Doctor Copeland, Instructor in Biology. Not only is Fred a good teacher, he is a popular teacher. The two do not necessarily go together. His interest in his subject is not confined to the classroom, for he has brought at least one lecturer to the ColJege to address the Faculty and their wives. (This must be a record of some sort!) At any rate, Dr. Copeland is a good biologist who knows his subject and can interest others in it. We are sorry to take leave of the Cope­ lands. A gap hard to fill will be left in Trinity's life. In their new career at Williams we wish Fred Copeland them the best of success and good fortune. T THE RESIGNATION from Trinity College of Dr. Frederick C.
