gradually grown, until at the last meet
over 200 We're in attendance. The

have ever offered. Indeed, no other
case is known where so much is done
to bring together high school pupils
in friendly contest. At the last meet
recently held the expenses of five con-

much to cement good feeling among
high school men and pupils, and is an
annual feature. ~

versitN. and which will go into effect
next September. is the extension Of tho
elective system and the adoption of a
major subject plan. First and second
Year students Will be expected to take
general academic work, E, especially
courses in English, science, history or
economies. literature or philosophy,
and q language other than English.
Certain definite amounts of this kind
of work win be required during the
first two years of a students residence
at the university. At the beginning of
the Junior or third year students will
be required to elect q major subject
in which they viii be expected to de-
vote a good share of their time during
the junior and senior years. This ar
rangement of courses will enable a
student to specialize in at least one
subject which is the aim of univer-
sity work. Graduates of the univer-
sity win be capable of taking high
rank in the subject in which they are
most deeply interested in which they
have specialized 9|5' WIT
High-ciase Work. tG
President DuniWay's desire is to
have the members OF his faculty spe-
cialists, so that they will be capable
of inparting high class instruction
and directing the advanced work of
students in their departments. With
the desire to carry out this idea Pres
ident DuniWay is now In the east for
personal interviews With men who arc
applicants for positions in the faculty
Of the University Of Montana The
best men who can be secured for the
money available will be appointed to.
vacancies in the university faculty
The number of the Institutional
force of the university faculty will be
increased next September by the ad-
dition Of several appointees. No def
mite information concerning appoint
ments for these positions will be made
public until after the meeting of the
state board of education, which takes
place june /. u,.....--s-s=
One OF the most important posi-
tons to be filled is i'll the. newly cs-
tablished department Of forestry A

able experience. The new department
Of forestry at the university is de-
atned to he attractive to young men
and in view OF the natural Advantages
about Mssoula and the, cooperation
with the staff of the local forestry
service the department lis sure to be
highly successful.
The organization of a law depart
mcnt in the university will doubtless
be the next step in broadening the
scope of the institutions work Presi-
The Daily Missoulian. [volume] (Missoula, Mont.) 1904-1961, 1909-05-30

dent Duniway has already recon-
mended to the state board of educa-
ton the establishment of such de-
partment in the institution, and as
soon as sufficient funds are available
the necessary steps for starting the
law school will be taken.
Another important phase OF the uni
Versity's worth to the state is the be-
ginning which is just being made in
university extension work. President
DuniWay as state inspector of high
schools is brought into close touch
with secondary education In every
part of the state. During the present
year he has visited nearly every high
school in the state, and has made en-
gagementS for commencement ad-
dresses as far as his time would per-

Faculty History.
The department of biology was or
g&nized in February, 1897, when Pro-
fcssor Morton J. I1lrod, of the Illinois
Wesleyan university, was called to the
department, and has been in continu-
Gus service since that to the present
time In the fall of 1897 f. d. Smith,
Instructor in chemistry in Cornell uni
veraity, was chosen to succeed Profess
scr S. M. Merritt, who had resigned.
Profe ssor Smith continued until June,
1901, and was succeeded by Professor
". p. Harlias, of Leland Stanford,
who still retains the position.
Ii 1897 Mis- En1ice Hubbcll of
Drake university, was chosen as in
structor in Latin and English ltera=
ture, thus relieving Preside mt Craig Of
a. part o. his WORT. Miss Hubbell
served two years, ard at hcl resigna-
ton Miss Frances Corbin was chosen
fer the vacancy. Miss Cosbin Is still
connected with THO university. -
When. the department Of chemistry,
physics and geology was divided Pro-
fessor j. p Rowe was chosen to take
charge Of physics and geology. Profess
sol Hurkins retaining the chair of
chemistry Both Of these men are still
with thu university.
The department of engineering has
had q varied career AS before stated,
it Was in the beginniog in charge of
Profetsor T. l.. Scheuch. In May
1898, Professor James H. Wells was
chosen as Instructor. He was sue
eeeded by Professor A, l.. Westcott,
The latter resigned in 1903, his place
being filled by Professor Robert Sib-
ley, of the University of California.
Professor Sibley resigned in the fail
of 1907, succeeded by Professor Il. r.
Craighill. Professor Craghill severed
his connection with the university in
February, 1909, the place being filled
by Professor Copeland Of California.
The department has grown from a
humble beginning to a school with

by Miss Cynthia +. Kelley At the be-

she still continues her work in nathe-
MATES. Professor l.. c. Plant was
chosen two years since as associate.
with special work in applied mathe-
mates. Professor Plant came from
Bradley Poptechnic institute. and is
now member of the university fac

Miss Eloise Knowles WAS chosen i'm
structor in drawing in 1898, and re-
tains the position at the present time

Mary Craig, now Mary Craig Wilcox,
from 1895 to 1902. when she was sue
ceeded by Gertrude Buckhouse. Il

tana who took her work at Illinois.
The first preceptress of Woman's
hall Was Nellie A. Whitney. of Mime

Alice Young. The position is now held
by Mary Stewart, of Colorado.
1t is thus apparent that the faculty
drawn from schools and colleges in
the far east, the west, and from the
middle states, thus bringing together
men and women representing schools
of different ideas and methods. The
svsetem cannot fail to produce tho
best of results
At the beginning Mrs. Walter Whit
aker had charge of the department of
music, which She still retains.
An Auxiliary.
In 1899 the University of Montana
biological station was established at
Flathead lake, partly BY contributions
from citizens, partly by university
appropriation. Senator w. A. Clark
has annually made Il contribution for
its support. Congress has granted 100
acres in the 1Tlathead reservation for
its use. The. land has been selected,
and elsewhere will be found more >.c-
tailed information about the station.
Work has been carried on continuous
" for 10 years, both in assistance to
those attending and in carrying on
original Investigations
The campus OF the university has
been enlarged. The original tract of
40 acres has been largely increased
through donation by the Northern Pa
ciic railroad of 40 acres, and by con-
Rrcssional grant of so acres, placing
the summit OF Mount Sentinel under
university control. 1t is hoped some
day to establish on this summit an
astronomical observatory.
On the erection of the gymnasium a
quarter mile cinder track was built on
the athletic field, the ground was COW
cred with clay and dirt, and put in
first class shape for baseball, football,
and other athletic sports. Six years
ago the intcrscholastic meet was or
ganized, and has been successfully
maintained every year since. The uni
versity faculty controls the meet, and
pays the expenses of three delegates
from each accredited school in the
state, besides Offering more than so

Departments
In 1901 a department. of eloeution
and physical culture WAS established.
With Ruth Elise Kellogg in charge.
This position she held until June
1868. The FIRST athletic Instructor for
men was Hiram Fl, Coniheal, who
served for two wears, succeeded by r.
w. Seh,tle for two years; then came
Albion g. Findley for one Year. He
was succeeded by j. w. Rhodes in the
fsll OF 1908, serving at the present
time
In December, 1904, DIR. II. X, Wolfe
of Nebraska, was elected as professor
OF Psychology. the department of his
tory and psychology being separated.
His resignation occurred later, when

A New Building. &
The library building win be fur
nshed this summer and be ready for
occupancy next fall. A great deal of
Improvement work will be done this
summer in the changing of the quar-
ters Of the science departments. The
entire upper floor of Science hall will
be remodeled for the exclusive use of
the department of chemistry. The
physics department will be removed
to the main building, SO that the first
floor Of Science ahall will be devoted
to engineering work alone. Many
other changes in the shifting of de-
partment quarters made, possible by
the completion of the Library build
ing will facilitate and strengthen the
work Of the institution next year
OF. hardly less importance. In the
ASPECT of university, than the fac
ulty is the student body. The college
education of Il student signifies assoc
citation with his fellow undergraduate
just as much as the instruction he re-
eeives in the class room. The drop
ping of the preparatory department
is doing much toward the betterment
Of the esprit de corps of the student
body. Student activities are entered
into with more. enthusiasm. by coll
legiate students, and the results are
far more. successful. The most sig
niticant undertaking of the students
this year is the establishment of
newspaper. the general tone and spirit
Of which is most commendabIe
President Duniway.
President DnniWay has taken an ac-
tive interest in putting student activi-
ties on a good wholesome basis. His
attitude toward athletics has been the
encouragement OF good wholesome
competitive sport, but for the mgra-
tory athlete who has been the curse
Of college sports in many institutions,
he has no sympathy; President Duni-
way also insists that the students who
enter competitive contests should act
