Martines credentials was a letter
signed by Commandant Weslover,
head of the Lincoln American Legion,
and although Mr. Westover has been
out of the city for several days, and
probably has no knowledge of Mar

Martlne, In addition to his original
and unparalellcd audacity seems to
possess a strong sense ot humor and
tho nddress to the Scudder mission
ary meeting, and his gulling of the

delicate touches indeed. Numerous
clubs in Lincoln were also fooled by
him, and after listening to his siren
song, endorsed the proposed drill.
Major Erickson of the University
drill corps, however, states that Ser

In regard to the drill, and that a tele
gram of Inquiry which he Just sent

the information that they knew noth

signer of St. Pauls cathedral, Lon

cathedral is written: "Sir Christo
pher Wren; if you would see his
monument, look about you."
Dr. Huntington quotedl one epi
taph to show that It made no differ
ence to a man after he was dead
whether bo had an expensive tomb
stone or not. In some of the churches
in England It was the desire of the
inhabitants to bo burled as uear to
the altar as possible. Naturally the
more desirable positions commanded
a higher rent than those furthei
from tho altar. One man, evidently
of moderate means, who was burled
Just inside the door, had caused tho
following to be inscribed upon his
marker:
"Heare lies I at tho church's door,
Heare lies I because I'm poor;
The further in the more you pay,
Yet heare lies I as near as they.'

The statement which Chancellor
Avery has given for publication ex
presses regret at the loss of Dean
Davis, and declares that the school
oC dentistry is practically of his
creation.
Tlie letter follows:
October 4, 1922.
Chancellor S. Avery,
University of Nebraska,
Lincoln, Neb.,
My Dear Chancellor:
I have been offered the position as
head of a dental research Institute
and post-graduate school, with a ma
.'erial raise in salary. I have decided
to accept this position and t tender
you my resignation to take effect as
soon as my successor has been se-
ured.
It is only fair to the board of re
gents and you to state that my rela
lions with tlie University and its offi
cial personnel have been more than
cordial and that I have no memories
other than llicce which are most
pleasant. I have felt at all times
that you were doing for the college
of dentistry everything possible for
its development and giving it all the
financial support within your power.
In cases where greater financial as
sistance has been withheld, I have
fully realized that it was because ot
your de."ire to keep within the bounds
:.f the wishes of our now heavily
burdened taxpayers. However, do
not forget the college of dentistry,
is it stands to serve a great purpose
i'or the people of Nebraska.
I hardly need remind you that this
college is one of the only seven den
ial colleges which are integral parts
of great state universities. The
members of my faculty and I are so
conceited as to believe that it stands
now among the greatest dental
schools in the world. However, it
that should be brought in question at
ibis time, it is only the very near
future when this perhaps dieam of
ours will be undisputed. Bear in mind
that this college is peculiarly situ
ated. It is, as all prof.-it-sional school
should be. resting in the very lap of
the College of Arts and Science,
which is the foundation college of ah
universities. Its students have the
benefit of one of the greatest depart
ments ii zoology and biology in the
world a. ul a chemistry department
second to none. At the same tlra
it rlnes not sustain a relation to an
other college "f the University which
would cause its students or faculty
n take second place In the attention
of the greater University faculty.
I shall be sorry to learn if at any
time in the future politics or design
ing persons should manage , or even
ittempt, to divorce tihs college from
the College of Arts and Sciences and "
remove It from the greater Unlver
;ly influence which it now enjoys.
I shall stand read yat any time in
the future to do all that my time
will permit to assist this college to
which I have already given tbe best
years of my life.
I am,
Most sincerely yours,
