THOSE who have had the good fortune to
become acquainted with Professor Ross. OF
the State University. will regret to learn
that he has been called from the State to
the East. In course OF lectures in this
city he has shown himself to be an en-
thusiastic scholar. careful investigator
of practical economic and social problems,
and possessing the rare faculty of discuss
ing them In a manner to be understood
and to interest all who can com preh a
plain and clear statement. Such teachers
are needed. and the work which Professor
Ross has done here shows that the college
professors have new field open to them if
they will drop the old methods of economic
discussion and take no the modern meth
cd of investigation which is being en-
ploy ed at Johns Hopkins and few other
institutions. Professor Ross is a native of
Iowa, SO that his going to Cornell. in New
York. indicates that the tide has turned.
and that the West is now sending Its Wig
Orous scholars TO Eastern institutions.
