"“L cannot spend any you, gentlemen,” said Lord Kelvin, quite brusquely and rudely. “I am looking for Trevor Kincaid.” Some of the distinguished citi zens had never even heard of Trevor Kincaid. For Trevor Kin caid is better known in New York London, Parts, Berlin, Petrograd, Rome and Tokyo than he {s in his home town. eee ROFESSOR KINCAID, bugol ogist. is a Seattle man who has “got there.” Out at the University of Wash fngton the students admire, love and laugh at Professor Kincaid They admire bim becanse he is at) love him) the top of his profession; because he is a good fellow; at him because he is aby and full of oddities. He never flunks a student. He scarcely ever calls the roll. He has laugh nt-minded certain ancient, classic jokes which! he tells in the classroom year after year, forgetting he has told them before, and laughs at them so heart ity that the students laugh, too not at them so much at him He Is a spare, youngish man, with wiry black hair which grows the wrong way. His collars are mostly a size and a half too large. He is careless in dress. When he walks thru the campus, he carries bis um brella upside-down. He can prove, biologically, that whales once had legs, and he can explain why some girls are red- headed, see HAT is the lighter side of Pro. T fessor Kincaid.

In 1899 Kincaid was a member| of the great Harriman expedition to Alaska the West Indies. Then the department of agricul ture sent him to Japan to find parasite inimical to the gypsy moth. He found 12 kinds and shipped them home. Next the government dispatched him to the Carpathian mountains, fn Russia, to get More parasites: His fame had gone before him.
