Bessey appears in the issue of the Breeder's Gazette, Chicago, for March 28. The article was written by Will C. Barnes, a member of the govern ment Forest Service, and is, in part, as follows: "When we came to look over the list of those who had successfully passed one of the examinations we gave, it was apparent that a large number of them came from the same college: the University of Nebraska. And as we became better acquainted with them we found each was a pupil and an enthusiastic admirer of the man who since 1884 had been instructor of botany at that college, Dr. Charles E. Bessey." All the boys who came to us from Doctor Bessey's hands were clean, wholesome young chaps, thor oughly profiicient in their work, bright, ambitious and full of vim and spirit. One of the greatest points in their schooling under Doctor Bessey was the practical application of their studies. Theirs had been no theoret ical course, but one that lent itself admirably to the every-day work which the service wanted done. The more I studied these young men the better I got acquainted with them, and the more was I impressed with the thought that a man who could create in his students such splendid efficiency must indeed be a big man. At present there are in the Forest Service more than forty of these University of Nebraska boys, each of whom is more or less a product of Doctor Bessey's skill as an instructor. Moreover, the big Bureau of Plant Industry of the Department of Agriculture, where botany is, of course, a prime requisite, is full of I Bessey-trained boys, all of whom are making good. "1 never knew Doctor Bessey, al though I have always looked forward to meeting and knowing him person ally. Nevertheless, I feel that I have known him through these boys. And now he has passed over the range, and his work must be taken up by others. Doubtless a monument will be erected to his memory, that those who come after may know of his splendid qualities and sterling virtues as a man and as an instructor; but to my mind the young botanists scat tered through the hills and valleys of the west, carrying on governmental work, these boys of his. stamped with his individuality and genius, will be living monuments, who will speak for his life-work far better than any carved from granite or marble." members of the legislature who are either graduates of the University or who are especially friendly to the in stitution. Prof. F. M. Fling presided as toastmaster. Among those who were called on for short talks during the evening were Representative Moseley, Governor" Morehead, and Re gents Hall and Miller. The talks in general were confined to discussions regarding the University's relation to the state and the state's relation to the University. A committee to take charge of the meetings of the club next year was elected, consisting of Trofessor Sanford, chairman; Prof, P. M. Buck, and Professor Wilcox.

The workmanship also speaks for itself. These are the qualities that will bring you back for a second STYLEPLUS because the price w only $17 all the time.
