TWO NEW INSTRUCTORS
AT STATE COLLEGE
Elbert Kincaid Takes lustructorship
in History Department and Miss
Alice Walden in Music
Department
The second semester opens with
two new instructors added to the
teaching force of the State College.
Mr. Elbert Kincaid, a former gradu
ate of the college, has an assistant
liistructorship in history, taking the
place made vacant by the leave of
absence granted to Dr. F. A. Colder,
who is pursuing historical investiga
tion in St. Petersburg, Russia. Mr.
Kincaid did two years of work at
Harvard, taking the Masters degree
the first, and lacking a little of
earning his doctorate the second. In
the second year he was a student
assistant at Harvard, did research
and collaboration on historical
bibliography for Dr. Albert Bushnell
Hart, and was elected instructor in
history at Clark University, Wor
cester, Mass., a position which he
declined. Prior to his coming to
W. S. C. several years ago, his home
town was Palouse.
Miss Alice R. Walden has begun
her work as instructor In piano at
the college, taking the place of Miss
Sawyer, resigned.
Miss Walden comes exceptionally
well recommended, both as a soloist
and a teacher. She is a graduate of
the University School of Music at
Madison, Wisconsin, and studied
later with Teichmueller at Leipzig,
Germany.
She has devoted three years to
concert work and has had extensive
teaching experience, her last position
being with the Kansas State Normal
School at Emporia.
A few press comments follow:
Post, Seattle, Wash.—Miss Alice
R. Walden is a pianist who combines
an excellent technique with a fine
musical understanding. Her inter
pretation is marked by purity of tone
and artistic expression, showing per
sonality and culture.
World, Omaha, Nebr.—Miss Wal
den has astounding power and wields
It with an ease that is bewildering,
and she also has an exquisite dainti
ness and delicacy of touch.
State Journal, Madison, Wis.—
Miss Walden's recital was an artis
tic triumph. Having ample tech
nical facilities, a refined style in
phrasing and an infallible memory,
she is enviably equipped for the art
of piano playing.

decay. The usual loss of appetite
le often caused by tunctional disturb
ances in the stomach. The stomach
fails to do the work required, the
appetite is gone, and the body suf
fers from lack of nourishment. Such
a stomach needs to be cleaned and
sweetened. Meritol Tonic Digestive
is made especially to assist the
stomach to digest food, and promote
a healthy appetite. This remedy is
