Feep, Please Note

To THE EDITOR:

If there still is no clue to the identity of Homer U. Feep, the author of "That Certain Look" in the December issue, will you please try, in some fashion, to get his eye in your next possible issue.

He should know that two people, my wife and I, have never enjoyed any article in any magazine more than "That Certain Look" and we have never laughed so hard.

A Pleased Mother

To THE EDITOR:

This writer hopes to be among the first to commend the DARTMOUTH ALUMNI MAGAZINE of December for that splendid article, "Mary Baker Eddy and Dartmouth."

As a hopeful parent wishing and desiring the highest and best in education for her children, this writer felt her prayers were answered when her daughter selected Principia College, Elsah, Ill., for her education. The younger child, a son, however selected Dartmouth College. That this choice for him was a wise one we have no doubt today, for the results are most gratifying and edifying.

This article is also most timely. To give credit where credit is due always springs from that noble spirit of justice, fairness, moral courage, love of truth and enlightened recognition, so needed today.

Never before did it occur to this writer how much the revered leader and discoverer of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, was blessed by the fountains of learning emanating from the Dartmouth spirit.

After booklearning, which are the tools in her famous library, comes the skilled enlightened thinker, who like Job perceives that "there (already) is a spirit in man; and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding." Job 32:8.

Salute to "Pop" Watson

To THE EDITOR:

I read your article on foreign students in the December 1959 issue with interest and with sorrow. I could not understand your failure to mention that remarkable man who had contributed so much both officially and especially in an informal way to the training and orientation of foreign students. I refer to Professor Emeritus E. Bradlee Watson.

I am sure that many foreign alumni, including Jaegwon Kim '58, valedictorian mentioned in your article, and this writer, remember as an unforgettable experience the warm hospitality and sincere desire to help which was always shown by Pop Watson.
