     This 4 ord has learned with profound regret of the death
of Dr. Joseph floesing -tst1e, Director of the Experiment ztation,
alumnas, and for many years instructor upon the faculty of the
University of 'entucky.  In his passing, this institution has
been called upon to surrender one of the most prominent and out-
standiing figures in Its entire history and at the same time
loses a counsel that was wise and an allegiance that was loyal
beyond  the common experience of men. Few lives had been so
dedicated to human service as had been that of Doctor aetl e

their chosen professionl

maend will express in trunt  1 the-3 abiding sense of loss tlhey feel

cording its deep, apopr.-ciation of the servicess, the character,
the exampOle of this manly man, profound student, able teacher,
poet, tanker,, philo-sopher and genius.

      ther records bear ampler testimony than this to tae work
of the hands of him who is now gone from us, hence no effort
here will be made recount what now are and henceforth shall
