WEDNESDAY, DEC. 11, 1912 A series of meetings Men’s for the discussion of “Col- Meetings lege Men’s Questions,” held in the Old Chapej every Sunday evening at 9:30 and conducted by Dean Holmes, and a series of lectures on the Psychology of Right Living, held in the Audi torium at 6:30, also given by Dean Holmes, have recently been in augurated. Large numbers have been attend ing the meetings held thus far; each meeting sees a larger crowd than the one previous, and according to present indications, the Old Chapel will not long be large enough for the 9:30 gatherings. An eager and much interested crowd of men form the audiences at these meetings. Their desire to hear and to leam Dean Holme’s views on difficult problems, and to come into close personal contact with him is plainly shown in the increasing number at each meeting. The instance of last Sunday night when Dr. Holmes was unavoidably was unable to meet the men, and when those who had gathered to hear him waited forty five minutes for his return, is alone sufficient proof of the character of the lectures and of the high esteem of the students for Dean Holmes. The time for these meetings is arranged so that everyone can at tend one or both each Sunday. Those who fail to attend them lose excellent opportunities to gain a great deal pertaining to right living and right thinking. Miss Jane Ad- Miss Jane dams, the noted Addams Coming authoress and settlement work er, will come to Penn State for Jan. 4 and 5.

BUCKHOUT’S FUNERAL. Ceremony Very Impressive—Many of Doctor’s Friends Present. Last Friday it was again the sad duty of the college to attend the funeral exercises of one of the most beloved and respected men in the oldest and truest of friends of this institution, who lay in the casket before the platform, amidst a mul titude of flowers. The ceremony was opened by the entrance of the funeral procession into the Auditorium, to the music of Chopin’s Funeral March. The cask et was placed directly in front of the platform. The Penn State Quartette then very beautifully sang “Abide With Me”. The col lege Chaplin, Rev. Reed,then read a portion of the scriptures. Rev. Martin then pronounced the prayer for the day, in which he made im pressive reference to our deceased friend. President Sparks gave a most striking address in which he touch ed upon different phases of Pro fessor Buckhout’s life and upon his chief characteristics. ■ The presi dent’s oration must have touched every heart in the room, because of its simplicity and its beautiful portrayal of the personality of our most honored professor. In closing Dr. Sparks said:—He passed away as no doubt he wished to pass,faith ful to his daily task and amidst the home surroundings he loved so well. The gentle elements which prevail ed in his birth, and marked his life, attended him in his death. Faithful servitor of the college, devoted scientist, honored teacher, beloved friend —farewell. During the Quartette’s next song, the casket was rolled out into the lobby where it was placed, so that all who might wish, could have the opportunity of one last look at Dr. Buckhout. When Dr. Holmes had pronounced the benediction, the people present slowly marched out to the music of the funeral march, to view for the last time their be loved friend. After this touching and impressive ceremony, the body was taken to the cemetery, accom panied by the relatives of the deceased. Once more we express our deep est regret at the death of Dr. Buck hout, for it is only too evident that this irreparable loss to the college will long be felt by both faculty and students. Y. M. C.
