sity and at the request of Dr. William
A. Shanklin, it's president, he has re-
signed,
| On rendering his resignation last
! night Prof Fisher was Immediately

| having an uproariously good time ON
| of the religious or other uses of the
| day by others
! The president, in reply, said in part:
81 am constrained to the conviction
! that your attitude in the matter is SO
far out of harmony with the spirit of

! In rendering his resignation. Prof.
| Fisher said he saw very clearly that
| a college with the history and the con-
stituency and the support Of Wesley
an was not exactly the place for q
man with his views and who could

he had in view but there was nothing
