Excerpt from The 1941 Index

A dignified, professorial figure dismounts from an old Wheel, stands it in a rack; and enters the Chapel. Then, his classroom filled with expectant undergraduate faces, he leans or sits on a table and mixes German verbs with stories of his days in Illinois or in the Deutschland of a generation ago.

Arthur Nelson Julian's immediate forebears were Eng lish - his mother a Midwestern teacher, his father a Cornish man who migrated to Canada and then to Plato Center, Illinois, where Arthur was born November 22, 1885. Because most Plato Center citizens were German immigrants, he per force spoke German. At nearby Elgin, a Scottish community, Arthur found his intellectual father, the Principal of Elgin Academy and a teacher of the classics.
