st. Joseph's church has already sue

a heavy one for the church. but the

building was begun almost before the
ruins of the building had ceased to
blaze. Every member of the parish
has exerted his or her utmost effort
to raise the money for the erection
of new building for the well known
school. The total amount of money
which will be expended in the rebuild
ing of the st. Francis academy will
be determined largely by the success

than before and to make the edifice
tireproof

| Ames, Aug. 15.-Another good man
has been called from l. S C.. to accept
| a professorship in Ohio University at
an advanced salary and increased OPP
portunities to practice his profession.
DIR. Mcneil has held the position as
dean Of veterinary medicine at Iowa
state college for the past eight years
and has been a power in building up
the department of veterinary science
at this place. In fact, under his direc-
| ton the Ames veterinary school has
become the leading school Of Its kind
| In the United States. The Iowa state
college today is the only veterinary
school in the country that offers a
fouryear course in veterinary medi-
, cine and its students are in demand
at fancy salaries as fast az they are
graduated
DR.. Mcneil is a graduate of Penn
sylvania University and one of the best
practitioners In veterinary circles that
the country possesses today.
In losing DR.. Mcneil the Iowa state
college loses not only the head of a
department but one of the broad
minded men of the institution His
whole ambition has been to build up
the work of the institution and proof
of his success lies in the large enroll
ment and increased demand for Ames'
four-year graduates.
1t may seem easy to many to let such
men go but with those Immediately
connected there is feeling that their
places will not be speedily refiled The
resignation of Prof Mckay. head of
the dairy division has not yet been sup
piled and will be left open until the
