' All who are Inoimlit to any oonslderahle extent In contact with Chancellor C'liulleld, the lieml of the State University, have been impressed with his wonderful capacity for effectivo work, and to all such it is emphatic allyapiwireut that the board of regents have not misplaced an Important trust in his se lection. The State University has a faculty or no inconsiderable dimensions anil aotiiri culiim of unusual scoie, and the man who elllciently sustains a general suH'rvIlou of Its workers and its work has a task of unus ual proportions, though he attemps nothing UUI III Ull Hllis, IHUIIIill III-- UIK-UIIF" liwtlllll, . els,..

All his work is done systematically In hoilis set apart for li, and his daily routine is sent pulou.ly observed with such admirable I'll'oct that the chancellor always has time to meet every demand outside of the loutine work which may promise anything in the way of advantage to the unlveislty. In spite of llio great ipmntity of close attention ilemaiided by his duties within the university's closer circles, he tlnds time to go out among the people to deliver an addiess hete and there out III the state, wheiever there Is a possi bility or extending the fame ot Nebumka's chief educational Institution, and his goal olllces in that direction have been fitiiiently utilized at state or national gatheiiugs heie in Lincoln, ills tulks me always interest ing, sensible and courteous, in fact he is al ways in apparent good humor wherever he may be encountered, and ho ueer lulls to impress one with the conviction that he is the representative of a great institution.

He ciinii rehellds In advance Its widening Held ol mefulness. and commands the esteem and iill'ectlon ot his co-woikers uml the pupils. He is an ideal master and his name in unlveislty click's is an insplru tlnn. It would be dilllcult to comprehend what a few y ems of his leadeishlp would do for the univeitlty In the way of develo nieiit.
