to do? Who is to help them? Everyone knows
that the Red Cross organization invariably comes
to the fore with medicine, shelter, food, nurses,
doctors, clothes and all the other necessities that
these unfortunate people require.

This magnificent humane society carries out
many more services to the American people be-
sides disaster relief. These are war service, pub«

Mr. Krathwohl

I have a feeling that. there is a
word in the English language that
describes him. but I‘ve chased it
through the dictionary, and it ran out
the other end, uncapturcd, But may»
be I can do a better job by telling'
what he has done. As a linear
equation is determined by two condi»
tions, and a quadratic by three, so the
equation of a human personality (of
tho fifteenth dsgme and nine-dimen—
sional) is ilctcri‘ninctl by N conditions,
which I will now give. Any one who
limls the equation from them: can turn
it in to his l'lllllllif'll‘iuilt'ti professor as

Harvard Graduate

Doctor Krathwohl has been here
«we 1914, He rtceivcd his college
education, and an A. B. degree, from
Harvard College in 1907, after taking
a four year course in three years.
Here he won Second Year Honors in
mathematics, in which subject be
specialized, as well as in physics,
chemistry, and education.

Previous to his collcce terms he had
learned the profession of designing
lenses, and returned to this profession
for one year, allot he hall graduated,
working for Baunch & l.m‘nh Optical
Company. Alter this he started
teaching, beginning at Barnard ColA
logo, which is the women's liberal arts
college of Columbia University, in
1907.

In 1910, he received his M.A. (le-
g’rce in mathematics from Columbia
University, He then taught at Wash-
ington University {or a year, and fol-
lowed this with a year and half of
study at Chicago. Having presented
a d .sertation on .ilodiilar Invariants
of Two Pairs of ('ogrcdlmtl Variables,
he received his Phl). degree here, and
then went to Ripon College to teach
for a year. From there he came to
Armour.

 

   

Book Used at Annapolis

The only reason the academy doesn’t
use it through the other years, is that
they are required by law, to change
the books every three years. As the
author of the article, “Are You
Happy With Your Work?” which ap—
peared in the Armam- Engiiicer of
December 19:57, he has received re-
sponses from “every section of United ‘
States and Canada." 1

0f the last four summers, three
were spent. by Dr. Krathwohl in
studying psychology, psychiatry, and

 

cilu ational tests at the University of
l C 'o. In this connection, he has
, procured an Illinois State Teachers
license, and can teach in any public
school in Illinois except in Cook
County.

     

 

Dr. Krathwohl is: a member of the‘
. American Mathematical Society, thel

Society for the Promotion of Engi-
cnce, the National Council of Teach-
ers of Mathematics, the Central Asso-
ciation of Teachers of Mathematics
and Science, and the Harvard Club
of Chicago. lle has also bcen prcsi~
dent of both the Illinois section of the
Mathematical Association of America
and the Men‘s Mathematics Club of
Chicago. He is, as well, secretary 01'
the No Field chapter of Phi Delta
Kappa, the honorary professional
educational fraternity. llis moat re-
cent article appeared in the Journal
of li‘nyiimrlug ls‘duruli'm‘i, which was
entitled “Methods of Elli-cling Better
