The people of Brookings need very
little introduction to Kate Caldwell.
She was born in the county and has
lived a good share Of her life in the
city. AS a high school girl and a col
lege student she has always been ac-
tive in every good word n work that
has come into her life. In her church
life she has been a constant help to
the upbuilding of the young peoples
societies and the work in the Sunday
school. Among the young people of
the city with whom she associated
she will be missed when she goe
from the community. Since leaving
college she has been teaching domes-
tic science in the high schOOl at Daw-
son, Mimi, and had been reelected
for this coming year. She, however,
gave up the position to go with her
husband.
George +. Weber has been in State
College for four years and graduated
in 1916. Called to the border with
Company c, he came back from there
as first lieutenant. After being mus
tered out he gave some time to post
graduate work at the college. and was
offered a position as a plant patholO-
gist with the Department of Agricul-
ture. He was also offered a fellow
ship at the University of Missouri.
Believing that his duty as an Ameri-
can citizen demanded that he give his
services in the army, he accepted the
promotion to command of the com
pany on the enlistment of Captain
Evers in the regulars. AS a student
at the college he was always in the
midst of all college activities and took
a leading and important part in all
the student work that went to up
building the student body. He num-
bers among his friends all the Brook
ings people with whom he has be-
come acquainted.
