. Foster, head of the department of
romance languages, the Pennsylvania
State College lost one of the most
| valuable members of its faculty.
While he had been complaining about
‘not feeling well for several days
{there was no indication of anything
| serious in his illness, but on Satur-
‘day he became violently ill and died
| within two hours.
Dr. Foster was born at Washing-
| ton, D. C.,, 59 years ago. He was ed-
'ucated at Brown University where
‘he graduated in 1893, teaching there
{one year in order to win his master’s
| degree. Later he studied at the Uni-
| versity of Leipzig, Germany, and on
{his return to the United States went
|to State College as instructor in ro-
! mance languages. That was thirty-
| four years ago and he had not been
at the College long until he was
i placed at the head of his department,
|a position he held until his death,
| achieving both State and national
{ honors.
As an outstanding student at
| Brown University he won member-
{ ship of Phi Beta Kappa, and at Penn
| State was made a member of Phi
| Kappa Phi and Phi Sigma Iota, na-
{tional romance language societies.
He also held membership in the
| American Association of University
| Professors, American Association of
| Teachers of Spanish, American As-
| sociation for the Advancement of

{thor of a number of French text
books used in high schools and col-
leges.
During the World war he compiled
‘a book on ‘Practical French Conver-
sation” that was extensively used by
the American soldiers. He was sta-
tioned at Camp Hancock, Georgia,
during 1917 and 1918 as educational
secretary and in charge of all French
instruction there. He was a direc-
tor of the student Y. M. C. A. of the
college for many years and was ac-
tive in the organization and work of
the “Cosmopolitan Club,” composed
of foreign students of the college.
Dr. Foster was the founder of the
Penn
Theta, National social fraternity, of
which he was faculty advisor until
a short time ago when he resigned.
ties he was an active member of the
Centre county Sabbath school asso-
ciation and filled the position of pres-
ident a number of years. He was al-
so an enthusiastic temperance work-
er and allowed no opportunity to
pass in his efforts in the cause of
| prohibition. * He was also privately
{interested in various movements. for
| the economic welfare of State Col-
i lege, and all in all was a worthy cit-
izen in every way.
He married Miss Nellie Patterson
| who survives with one brother and a
| sister, Dr. W. W. Foster, of Wash-
ington, D. C., and Mrs. J. G. Moore,
iof Chicago. Funeral services were
