E. S. SELL

    E. S. Sell, head of the Department of Agriculture and Rural Social Science
at the State Normal School, Athens, Georgia, was born March 9, 1887, at
Hoschton, Jackson County, Georgia. He prepared for college by attending Hoschton
High School. Received the degree of B.S.A. from the University of Georgia in
1910. In 1918, the University of Georgia conferred upon him the Master of
Science degree.

   After graduating from the University of Georgia, he taught school at Blythe,
Richmond County, Georgia, but for the past twelve years has been connected with
the State Normal School at Athens.

   For eleven years he was at the head of the Department of Agriculture, but in
1922 rural science was added to his department. He has contributed articles to
many magazines, and is the author of an Agricultural Laboratory Manual,
(published by Ginn & Company.) He is also the author of Methods of Teaching
Agriculture, and a History of the State Normal School, as well as a Sketch of
the State Normal School which appears in the History of Athens and Clarke County.

   His History of the State Normal School has been endorsed and accepted by the
trustees of that institution, and will be published. He is the subject of a
sketch in "Who's Who in America."
