WESLEY4N'S NEW PRESIDENT,
The Rev. DIR. Shanklin Has Made Name
as a Money Getter I'm Iowa.

MIDpLETowN. Conn. Dec lo.-Born
BAPTIST, educated as a Presbyterian
and elected president Of Methodist
university is the history in brief CT the
Rev. DR.. william Arnold Shanklin. who
is to be the new head of Wesleyan Uni
versity in this city. ~.
A warm admirer OF the new president
is Andrew Carnegie. The story is that
at banquet held not many months ago
MIR. Carnegie and DIR. Shanklin we're both
guests and Mr.. Carnegie referred to DR..
Shanklin as the best all round college
president his acquaintance.
In the West President Shanklin has
gained reputation as money getter.
It is stated that he has accomplished in
the three years that he has been at the
head OF the Upper Iowa University things
not dreamed of by the most sanguine
friends Of the institution. Asan example
of his ability TO hustle some months ago
he set out to raise $l5o,0oo.
The money did not come in as fast as
he desired and one morning, when the
university was to have big celebration,
he started OF in an auto at the break OF
day to finish raising that sum. He trav-
elled sixty miles in the machine, made
a whirlwind canvass of friends Of the in
stitution and returned to the university
to take part in the celebration and to
announce that not only had he succeeded
in raising the $3.50 900 desired but he was
over sS, 600 ahead OF the game.
During the time that he has been at the
head Of the Iowa University he has nearly
doubled the endowment, repaired the
buildings, beautified the campus and
will in all probability build a new gym
nasium before he retires from the presi-
dency In June. 1909.
DR.. Shanklin was born at Carrollton,
Mo-, on April IS, 1884. After his gradua-
tion at Hamilton College. Clinton, n. Y,
he received the degree OF S. T B. in 1891
from the Garrett Biblical Institute at
Evanston, III. In 1889 he was ordained
to the ministry Of the Methodist Episcopal
Church and has had pastorates In Kansas.
Washington, Iowa and Pennsylvania. He
will be inaugurated as president OF Wes-
leyan in June. 1909. succeeding President
Bradford p. Raymond. who resigned
about two years ago and whose place
Temporarily has been taken by Prof.
William North Rice.
