PROFESSOR W. D. CLARK Becomes Acting Head of Forestry Department. On the first of April, Professor W. D. Clark took charge of the Forestry Department, to succeed Dr. H. P. Baker. Prof. Clark gradu ated from Philips Academy, An dover, Massachusetts in 1900, and in 1904 received his B. A. after the regular classical course at Yale. After traveling for eighteen months in this country, Cuba and Porto Rico, Prof. Clark entered the For est Service as an assistant in silvi cultural work, and continued in the service until 1906, when he entered the Yale Forest School. After one year in the school, he reentered the Forest Service. He was engaged in making volume table studies in the southwest and in Montana, and later was assigned as an assistant on the Lewis and Clark National Forest. In the spring of 1908 Prof. Clark returned to Yale University, and in 1909 received his M. F. degree. In the fall of that year, he came to Penn State as one of the assistants to Dr. Baker. Upon the resigna tion of the latter, It is highly fitting that his work be carried on by Prof. Clark. In his work here, the new acting head has proved himself a man of thorough preparation, not only in Forestry subjects, but also in many allied branches. Deserved ly popular with the men in his De partment, he will undoubtedly be successful in his new position; and it is without any reservation that we extend to him our congratula tions and best wishes.
