Excerpt from Lanthorn, Class of Nineteen Sixteen, Vol. 19 Page Eightturion. It was during these early years Of his professorship at Susquehanna that the now abandoned Chemical and Physical laboratory was erected. His was the guiding hand in the arrangement and equipment Of the building. Each year brought with it advanced steps and improvement in the various courses of the University, but nowhere has there been a fuller development than in the Department of Natural Sciences. The laboratory soon became crowded and inadequate to meet the increasing needs Of the department; for years, although handicapped and over - crowded, the work was carried on until in 1912, when with the dedication of the new Charles Steele Science Hall, even brighter and larger fields were Opened to this department. This building stands not only as a monument to those, who, through their generosity, made it possible, but to him who with unceasing toil and sacrifice has ever labored to make the study of the Sciences of the greatest possible benefit to the students. Dr. Fisher has been Curator of the Museum of Susquehanna University since 1896; has been President of the Society of Natural Sciences since 1898; Superintendent of Trinity Lutheran Sunday School for the past fourteen years; he has served on the Board of Health of Selinsgrove, and also other noteworthy positions have been filled very capably by him.
