President Hadley's advocacy Of higher salaries

throughout the country and Yale men especially
will be pleased TO learn that a beginning has

doubted that the men who at Yale are receiving
salaries OF $1,000 and $4OOO-and these are far

had applied their talents TO other callings might
have gained pecuniary rewards far in excess of
their present compensation. To be sure, the
teacher like the preacher IS expected to sacrifice
something Of worldly advantage for love Of his

The following is a clipping from
the Daily State Journal of Topeka.
Andrew Lyman Paey, colored. from
Kansas City. Kan, ranked first In the
examination for doctors certificates
which was completed TO day before
the state board of medical examina-
ton and registration. in a list OF 80
applicants for certificates. Out of
the 80 applicants, 22 secured certi-
ficates.
DIR. Paey is a graduate of the Ten
nessee medical school, and taught
bacteriology there for some years.
His paper on bacteriology examina-
ton before the state board was grad
ed 100, and this is the first 100
grade ever made in the bacteriology
examination. DR.. Flack, who gives
this examination is a very strict
grader, and some of the papers were
marked down as low as 10.
Another circumstance OF interest
is that Or. Paey's sister, who took
the examination, before the board
some time ago, also ranked first of
her class.
This is a splendid record on the
part or our friend, DIR. A. l.. Paey,
formerly of Lexington, Ky.
DR.. Paey has decided TO locate in
Norfolk. Va. He win doubtless
make his mark in the practice of
medicine, as he has done in the ex-
animation. He should have the
fullest support of the people of that
city. ~
DR.. Luella Paey, sister OF DR.. A.

icine in this city some time next

IL was decided to erect a building

The plan and design for this build

changes in their plans and arrange
