BIRTHDAY PARTY

The calendar was turned back TO
April II. 1920. Monday evening at a
joint meeting of the mems and wo-
mems Bible classes of the Methodist
church TO do honor to the SEVENTEEN
birthday anniversary of Prof. Il. r.
in the church. college and city since
way back in the eighties. The party
had been planned for long time. but
the absence of Prof. Kerr on various
duties made it necessary to postpone
the affair until Monday evening. Mr..
and Mrs. r. Matheny were in charge
of the arrangements and TO them the
larger share of the credit must go for
the success Of the evening. over fifty
members of the wo classes attended
the party which was held in the base
ment of the Methodist church. Mrs
J. J. Gardner paid the first tribute to
the guest of honor by presenting him
with large bouquet of flowers and
baptised him with a shower of petals
accompanied by pretty speech. Mrs.
G.. II. ZentZ read a few selections from
the works of James Whtcomb Riley,
the Hoosier poet, especially apt since
Prof. Kerr is also a Hoosier. Prof. A.
S Harding of State college, at one
time a student in Prof Kerr's class at
State college and later a colleague on
the faculty, gave a biographical
sketch Of Prof Kerr's association with
the college. 4 letter was read from
w. Il. McCray, republican candidate
fer governor of Indiana who was "A
pupil Of Prof Kerr's when boy
George Ade was also under his in
struction at that time. A collection
of about seventy quotations from well
known writer's were rected by each
of the guests and were bound in a
loose leaf book and presented to the
guest Of honor with their autographs.
Rev. c. II. ZentZ then made pleasant
speech accompanied by good natured
repartee. In response, Prof. Kerr. af
ter expressing his deep appreciation
of the honor and tribute, said, "As
Sam Jones once said, 1T is better to
have a lot of this taffy when you are
alive than to have SO much epitaffy
after you are dead" Refreshments
We're served at the close OF the pro-
gram.

Shirley p Miller, professor Of ZOO
logy and rural sanitation at State col
lege, recently resigned, left Sunday
for Minneapolis, Mimi, to take up his
new work at the University of Mime
sofa in the summer session which
opened there Monday. He has been
granted a very generous research fell
in that institution which Will
enable him to complete his work for
the doctors degree and at the same
time has a splendid opening as a per-
manent member of the faculty of the
college of medicine of the University.
1t is distinct blow to Brookings and
State college to lose so genial and ac-
tive a citizen and so capable and pop
ular instructor but it is noted with
pride that such prominent uni
versity has given Prof. Miller such
signal recognition. Everyone firmly
believes that he deserves it all and
more. 1t would be truer than proph-
ecy to say that the educational world
will hear greater things OF Prof. Mill
er before many years. The citizens
of Brookings and the college students
and alumni, although regretting his
departure immeasurably, all wish him
unlimited success.

SUMMER SCHOOL TO START

On next Monday. at 9 o'clock, Will
begin the registration of students in
the six weeks summer school Of the
South Dakota State College. Because
of a change in the school laws of the
state which require the county insti-
tutes to be held in the fall the sum
mer session will not begin with a
joint institute as it has during the
past few years and consequently there
will not be the usual stir and hustle at
the opening of the session.
However, there should be good
enrolment, as large corps Of except
ionally able instructors will offer a
complete list of subjects of both ele-
mentary and collegiate grade. Stud
ents pursuing the elementary work
will have the opportunity to review
the various subjects or TO cover them
in a more thorough manner Work Of
collegiate grade will be offered in
English, history. rural sociology, agri-
cultural economics, education, COM
merce, the natural sciences, home eco
nOmics and domestic art, manual
training, and agriculture. An oppor-
tunity will also be given to take in
struction in the coaching of football
and other games, in piano and band
music, and in the art of printing.
A special feature Of the session will
be the work in vitalized agriculture
which has been receiving so much at
tention throughout the country during
the past year. Mr.. Burr and Miss
Whitehead, both of whom have made
notable successes along this line in
Missouri, will give regular instruction
on various features of the work
throughout the entire term. They
will offer rare opportunities to rural
school teachers to develop themselves
in this important phase of teaching.
