Several gifts of books and other
aluable material made recently
to the College library were an

librarian, and Gladys R. Cranmer,
assistant librarian.
Mrs. W. G. Edwards has given
the minutes of the class of 1868,
of which her father, Dr. William
A. Buckout, was secretary. The
library already has the minutes of
the class of 1911. Gifts of minutes
of other classes will be welcomed
by library officials.

Louis E. Reber, 'BO, and dean of
the Engineering School from 1895
to 1907, has sent the library his
reminiscences of the College cov
ering the period from 1876 to 1907,
when he left to become dean of the
extension division of the Univer
sity of Wisconsin.
A. Howry Espenshade has done
the same for the period of 1898 to
1938. Mr. Espenshade was with
the College many years, part of
the time as a teacher of English
composition and part of the time
as registrar.
George R. Meek of Bellefonte,
an alumnus of the class of 1890,
has contributed, among other
things, a copy of "The Students'
Miscellany," a weekly publication
of the Cresson Literary Society.
This is a four-page issue of Vol.
27, No. 5, February 4, 1887, and the
first to 'be received by the library.
Aside from the advertisements it
gives the "Programme. for Friday
evening, February 4," which con
sisted of the play, "The Stolen
Will," a comedy drama in three
acts. It was given in the College
Armory.
It also includes two columns,
one called "Small Talk" and in
cluding such items as. "The right
man in the right place—George
W. Atherton"; the other, called "A
few things we need at P. S. C.,"
including such as "Friends—that
is, more like those we have; Stu
dents; A new Chapel; A new Lab
oratory; A new Gym and Armory;
.An addition to the Library." A

cluded.
Dr. C. E. Myers and Dr. J. F.
Oesterling have also made recent
contributions to the library files.
These gifts have been included in
the Penn State Collection of the
College Library.
John A. Ferguson, emeritus pro
fessor of forestry at the College,
has recently presented a beautiful
set of books' entitled "The World's
Great Classics." The gift is made
in memory of Susan K. Becker
Ferguson, Mr. Ferguson's first
wife, who served as a member of
the College library staff for a num
ber of years.
The set includes complete print
ings of many great classics, in
cluding "The Federalist," Frois
sart's "Chronicles," Ranke's "His
tory of the Popes," Kant, Mon

Graham & Sons Means
Real Penn State
(Continued from. page two.)
ing man in his fifties walked
through the 'door, grabbed George
by the hand, and asked how
everything was up at old Penn
State.
Then out the door walked
Jimmy Leyden 'l4, one of the' best
Penn Staters ever to leave Mount
Nittany. To Jimmy went all the
trimmings of a college life. He was
head cheerleader, wrote the Penn
State song, sent two children back
(or studies years later.
Tomorrow someone else will be
back. Graham's will always mean
Penn State to Penn Staters.
