Before adjournment the Geological
Board passed the following resolu
tions: "Whereas Col. Joseph Hyde Pratt
has tendered to the Governor his res
ignation as State Geologist, to be
effective March 1, 1924; and,
"Whereas, Colonel Pratt has held
the position of State Geologist for a
period of about nineteen years; and
incidentally Mr. Frank R. Hewitt, a
'member of this Board, has served for
the same period, and he and the other
members of the Board are familiar
with the activities and services of
Colonel Pratt:
' "Now, therefore, resolved, That
,the Board make public recognition of
the invaluable services rendered to the
State by Colonel Pratt:
"He has been loyal, industrious and
leffective in the investigation of the
natural resources of the State, and in
giving them publicity and in devising
plans by which they might be utilized
for the upbuilding and the progress
of the State. TMany new industries
have been established 'and nonresi
dents have been attracted and have
united their wealth and energies with
those of the people of the State. In
all those activities in which Federal
cooperation has been available, he has
been unusually successful in securing
both expert and financial aid from
the Federal Government. Altogether,
Colonel Pratt has made an enviable
record of service, which should be a
source of gratification to him, and
which should earn for him unstinted
recognition and gratitude from the
people of North Carolina.
"Resolved, that the Board regret
exceedingly the resignation of Colonel
Pratt, and wish for him personally
and professionally good health, hap
piness and prosperity in any future
work which he may undertake.
"Resolved further, that a copy of
this resolution be spread : upon the
minutes, and that the secretary to
the Director be directed to deliver a
certified copy thereof to Colonel
Pratt, and also furnish a copy to the
press of the State,"
Colonel Pratt is now actively en
gaged in his new work as President
of Western North . Carolina, Inc., an
inter-county association whose pur
pose, as its name indicates, is the ad
vertisement and general development
of the resources and material and so
cial possibilities of the rapidly pros
pering mountain section of the State.

and experience and active work with
