FARGO COLLEGE NEWS.

DR.. vittum win leave Fargo for his
summer home in New Hampshire
early in July. He will probably spend
large portion OF the year in travel.
1t is greatly to be regretted that the
college is to lose his valuable serv-
ices and especially so early in his ad-
ministration. This regret is only mlt.-
gated by the fact that his physical
condition makes rest imperative for
him. DIR. Vittum's sympathy and re-
sourceful helpfulness, both as a friend
and an administrator, are known and
appreciated by teachers and students
and will be held in grateful remem-
brance by them. Since coming here

thought and effort have been centernd
on the advancement OF the college.

Of friends unite In regrets at his re-
tirement and In best wishes for his
prosperity and speedy return to
health.
