Prof. Pinkham's Views.

To the Editor OF the Sioux Falls
Press: 1t is perhaps but just to 9th
ers as well as to myself that | say "a
word in reference to the recent action
of the board of trustees of the state
agricultural college. So spontane-
Gus and earnest had been my en-
dorsement from leading educators
and business men of the state, and
such the encouragement from some
members of the board of regents,
that | naturally looked forward with
some confidence to the presidency at
Brookings. The implication that
seemed to gain force in the last week
or two that my appointment would
be regarded as political, would GER
tainly seem to be unfounded in the
, light of the fact that those who so
kindly sent in their endorsements
include representatives OF all our po-
litical parties. That | am disap-
pointed in the action taken is true,
but | am not disturbed. | think |
have learned in life that disappoint-
ment in a given line is not necessari-
ly a calamity. 1t is often the har-
binger of larger good in some other
field. AS to Prof. Heston, the gen.
tleman chosen for the presidency at
Bookings, it gives me pleasure to
say that he impresses me as a capa-
BILE and forceful man, and should he
be successful in wisely directing the
interests of the agricultural college,
as | confidently think he will, | shall
certainly be broad enough in my
sympathies to congratulate the col
lege in his selection.
He comes, a stranger, into the edu-
cational ranks of the state, and |
cheerfully extend to him the hand OF
cordial welcome. Yours very truly,
q. L. PINKHAM.

How often do We hear people say,
.'where in the world do the flies come
from" It's simple enough. The to,
per makes the bottle fly, the cyclone
makes the house fly, the carpenter
makes the saw fly the boarder makes
the butter fly, the dancer makes the
heel fly, the Jockey makes the horse
,ay. the Cubans make the Spanish ny
and the tin can makes the dog fly
