and one, Mr. Carl C. Cramer, is no longer living. He was 
an honest, conscientious and able worker for a beginner, and 
did most excellent work during the summers of 1902 and 1908, 
but fell a victim to disease, not living to see the results of his 
labors appear in print. The following-named gentlemen are 
the ones referred to above. Each of them did good service 
as a volunteer worker, usually having no compensation ex- 
cepting the gratification of a desire to study nature by a close 
personal contact with one of the great branches of nature 
study, and a feeling that by giving his time in this way he 
was contributing as best he could to the welfare of the state 
and, in a degree, to the promotion and dissemination of knowl- 
edge. Frank Brook, Charles F. Brook, Fred. J. Cambern, E.

Judge Kk. P. West, of Kansas City, was connected with the 
museum of the University of Kansas during the last few years 
of his life. In this capacity he made a number of investiga- 
tions in Kansas geology and published a number of papers in 
the Kansas City Review of Science and Industry. 
Prof. W. F. Cragin for a number of years was connected 
with Washburn College, Topeka, during which time he made a 
great many investigations in Kansas geology and published 
many papers on various phases of the subject. His publica- 
tions were principally in current scientific magazines, Trans- 
actions of the Kansas Academy of Science, and Washburn 
College Laboratory Bulletin, a publication originated and con- 
ducted by Professor Cragin. They cover a wide range of sub- 
jects, and the state is greatly indebted to him for his ex- 
tensive work.
