Mac Nider turned to his students in the University Medical School and asked, "What makes some people so pompous?" And, without waiting for an an swer, as he frequently didn't, he said: "If I were asked what is the first requirement for the search of truth, I would say humility. And if I were asked for the second re quirement I would say humility. And if I were asked for the third requirement I would say humility." This is one of the many inci dences in the life of the late Dean of the University of North Caro lina Medical School recalled in the book, "The Good Doctor," just re leased by the University Press. The memorial volume, with stir ring tributes to Dr. MacNider and selected essays and addresses, by him, catches the spirit of the man who knew and loved Chapel Hill and the University as few other persons ever have. On Faculty 51 Years At the time of Dr. MacNider's death on May 31, 1951, the Uni versity had been in existence for 156 years and he had served on its faculty 51 years, three years as Dean of the School of Medicine. He was one of the first five pro fessors in the University to be des ignated as Kenan professor s in 1918 and in 1924 he was named ignated as Kenan professors in the University, under the designa tion of Kenan Research Professor of Pharmacology. At the time of his death he was Kenan Research Professor of Pharmacology Emer itus. Victor S. Bryant of Durham, chairman oof the Trustees Visiting Committee, who contributes one chapter in the memorial volume, says he considers it "a lasting tribute to the youthfulness and timelessness of Dr. MacNider's thought and work that one of his youngest students, William W. Mc- Lendon of Greensboro, conceived and carried out the plan for the book, 'The Good Doctor.' "It was characteristic of Dr. Billy 3 Mother's Day Cards for Zippy Mothers 5 JSiTEIATE Open Evenings 3 A BREATH TAKING FLOWED of the By Greene and Bfomquist Colorful as a spring garden, this is the book you've been wantng-A superlat Mother's Day Gift.

A leather-bound copy of , the volume was presented to the Di vision of Health Affairs Library recently on behalf of Dr. Mac Nider's daughter, Miss Sally Foard MflfNider of the University Li brary staff. Co-editors McLendon and Cochrane made the presenta tion for Miss MacNider. Young McLendon is the son of Major L. P. McLendon of Greens boro, chairman of the Trustees' Committee on the Division of Health Affairs, and Mrs. Cochrane is a former staff member of the University of North Carolina Press. Her husband is a member of the Institute of Government staff. Chancellor Robert B. House, m the opening chapter, says that Dr. MacNider "was the most com pletely identified personality in body, mind and spirit, with Chapel Hill and its environs and its peo ple, and with the University of North Carolina, of any man with whom we have been associated. "He was raised in his mother's house on the spot where the Post Office now stands, across from the campus on the dusty or muddy rambling old Franklin Street. This spot was the congregating place of young and old, black and white, country people and town people. ( It was more tnan just a pnysicai neighbor of the campus. It was the heart and center of the life of the place. ... Great Nature Lover "He scuffed over the very soil of the place, waded every stream, hunted in all the fields and woods, loved and cared for every wild flower; cultivated, enjoyed and shared every beautiful thing in the form of flower and shrub which can grow in Chapel Hill.

The whole natural set ting he loved from the break of dawn in the sky, through the busy day, on through the dusk and twi light into the meditative evening hours." -A chapter by Dr. William Sr. Coppridge of Durham includes passages from his address on tho occasion of the presentation of Dr. MacNider's portrait to the Uni versity on December 15, 1946. "I can speak for the many hun dreds of his students whom he has taught and inspired over the past 40 years," Dr. Coppridge said, "when I say, that as a teacher, he has had few equals. Will Be Remembered "Uncompromising in his insis tence on attention to detail, scorn ful of indolence and inactivity, he has always been sympathetic and shown a real interest in the prog ress of every student. In his work he never asked anyone to go fur ther or work any harder than he himself was willing to do. He has so lived, that his life is the author ity of his words. "Not for many a year shall his face and figure and radiant per sonality go from the memory of them that love him, nor will the tradition of him and his deeds and words go from them, who from their fathers, know of him," Dr. Coppridge said. Victor Bryant in- his tribute said that no man of his entire acquain tance" was more considerate of his fellow man, more diligent in his search for truth, more loyal to his University and profession, and more reverent to his God" than Dr. MacNider: - "He possessed a genius for friendship," he said. "Many who knew him intimately place love for his fellowman as his predominat ing characteristic." "His; friendship went deeper than mere amiability- and courtesy and his interest in his fellow man em braced all mankind, particularly that part of it which was in trouble."
