SAMUEL WENDELL WILLISTON, PROFESSOR OF PAL/EONTOLOGY IN THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO AT THE TIME OF HIS DEATH, AUGUST 30, 1918 Although Professor Williston preferred scientific investigation, the influence of his work as an educator was even greater than that of his writings; and yet few modern scientific men have left so brilliant a record of achievement in such varied subjects. Paleontology, geology, entomology, and com- parative anatomy all liave been greatly enriched by his indefatigable zeal and his investigations — See Sajiuel Wendell Williston by One of His Students, page 609 520
