Dr. O'Toole has been called to do mathematical and statistical work in the Federal Bureau of Communications. Commenting on the urgency of the summons, Dr. O'Toole expressed his sin cere gratitude to the College for its patriotism in granting him a leave of absence at this time. He spoke also of the high value he has placed upon his connections at Mun delein. In leaving the College, he declared, I am giving up some of the most pleasant and valued associations of my life. If I had not taught at Mundelein College, he added, I'm sure. J would not believe that such a magnificent in stitution could be developed in 10 years. We shall hear more about Mundelein in the future. It is now coming into full bloom. The explanation for its success is to be found in the high order of culture and learning of the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary and of the scholarly lay men and women whom they have selected to assist them. For my association with all the mem bers of the Faculty, and for the special kindness I have received from my col leagues in the mathematics department. I am most grateful. Speaking of his classes, Dr. O'Toole said: I shall not be surprised il most of all I miss my students. I love teach ing, and I am proud to have had even a small part in the education of the fine students here at Mundelein. My senior class in mathematics is the best senior class I have bad in my 16 years of teaching experience. I shall follow eagerly their progress through the future.
