:. Despite what pessimists say to the
contrary, death sometimes removes a
man whose place cannot be filled. Such
men are few, to be sure. Not many
e have qualities of heart and mind that
make them invaluable to the rest of
!, the human race. Such a man, though,
|, was Prof. Joseph LIE Conte, of the
: University of California. Beloved and
: venerated by all who knew him, and
by thousands who, not knowing him,
bad been helped and uplifted by his
teachings. He has gone to rest with
crown of honor such as few are
3 entitled to wear. His friends cannot
find words to express their apprecia-
: ton of his life and it's work, or their
regret at his death.
over thirty years he held the
. chair of zoology and geology at the
4 State University. His rare attain
!, ments made him an authority, and he
d was recognized as one of the greatest
: thinkers of the century. Innunerable
-honors were bestowed upon him by
- scientific societies all over the world.
sSYIe was the author of many books on
n different scientific and philosophical
Subjects, and the results OF his re-
t searches and thought were of rare
value. But it was as a teacher that
Professor LIE Conte excelled. Thor
oughly unselfish,s devoted to his duty,
eNwith no thought but to spread the
: Knowledge he possessed, his work stood
out~above all others. He was an ideal
professor; a man of almost boundless
a<Iearning, with the rare faculty of i'm
a parting~to others what he knew, and
u Win personality that won the love of
The students and made them eager to
listen to every word he uttered. Ber-
T kelley will never know such another
as Joseph LIE Conte.
He died where he would have chosen
70 die-in the Yosemite Valley, his ia
vorite spot on earth. 1t was on his
: tenth visit.to the valley that he passed
: away. in the shadows of the domes
, and>cfags, whose beauty and grandeur
lE never tired of describing.
