"Alumnus" for Octo ber, 1935, was handed to me yesterday by our mutual friend, john Rhea. I was pleased to see your photograph under the title of your new book: "Orient Meets Occident." When I re call those happy thirteen years, 1895 1908, it seems but yesterday that you were president, Professor Waller, the head of the Department of Mathemat ics and Civil Engineering, with a splended faculty: Spillman, Balmer, "I. Nelson, Fulmer, et cetera. When I realize it was 27 years ago in june, 1908, that I bade goodbye to W. S. C., I am cheered as I find the best engineers in Washington, Ore gon, Tennessee Valley and other states are W. S. C. "boys." During the three years I was Highway Commissioner of Washington, 1911-12-13, one-third of the 39 county engineers of this ., state were W. S. C. "boys." Let me also say that Ben Torpen, '10, is the head designer at the Bon neville Dam on the Columbia and his brother, Alex Torpen, ex-'05, on the Norris Dam in the Tennessee Valley. I have been informed that eight of "our boys" are active on the Grand Coulee project. f A. D. Butler, '04, city engineer of Spokane for 25 years or more; C. J. Members of faculty mentioned in W. J.
