PROFESSOR CARVER HONORED

Professor T. N. Carver's appointment as director of the "Rural Organization Service," a new division of the Department of Agriculture, is an advance in his career as an economist. He has studied carefully and made extensive investigations into rural conditions, both here and abroad, with especial view to the scientific betterment of agricultural methods; and no one is better fitted to take up the difficult task of organizing our rural communities along the lines of greatest economic efficiency. Professor Carver will now have ample opportunity to apply and test the theories which he has formulated as a result of his studies of the past twenty years, and the CRIMSON wishes him the best of success in this interesting work.
