summer, and in winter worked for
his board and went to school. He
not only finished in the public
school but worked his way through
Grinnell College. graduating with
honor. Following this he took
special course in training as
mechanic. He was skilled work
man. and from the day of his gradu-
alton has meyer wanted for a wide
open door of opportunity. He
belonged to that class of trained and
prepared men that are always in
demand. and it is unnecessary to

his vocation.
