T he exercises held at the College on the 22d of February were simple, but more than usually full of appre ciation and reverence for the char acter of the great man whom they commemorate. to were designed array T he in military students marched to the into the armory strains of martial music by the Col representation lege band. A large from the resident population and the lady students filled the remaining space. T he meeting was called to order by President Snyder, and after an invocation by the Reverend R. C. Dodds the first speaker, H o n. P e r ry P o w e r s, auditor-general of the State of Michigan, began his address. M r. P o w e rs spoke of the fact that the memory and character of George Washington has become little mote than an ideal. He then went on to show the use of ideals—to serve as guides and magnets to draw us out of ourselves into higher and better life. Such an ideal is Christ even to the unlearned and the ignorant, those w ho are not able to get their knowledge of him by other than in direct means and at second-hand. Such an ideal is Washington, a man of w h om all the world is proud. T he hills recede and pass out of sight as we journey from them, but them the mountains rise and assert selves more strongly and persistently on our horizon. Such is the effect that the characters of great men produce upon us. Washington is greatest in his fare well address. Marvelous is the fore sight therein exhibited. Scarcely a danger that has threatened or still threatens our country is not seen and charted for our guidance. Great as was Washington's fame in his own day, his greatness is more fully real ized and recognized today. T he men of his time could not see him in proper perspective. T he artist in his studio is at work on a colossal statue and the bystanders find fault. This feature is out of proportion, and that limb is not in correct posi tion. But the figure is elevated to its pedestal on the top of some tall column, and in the proper perspective every part falls into an harmonious unity, just as the sculptor had fore seen. So time elevates great men, and all apparent defects or blemishes become essential features of one har monious figure. is sorelv needed Such an ideal as that of Wash today. ington Human conditions are almost new. T he great problem of capital and labor has taken on new and unfore seen conditions; and yet the world is not worse today but better. T h e re is today more of the spirit of help fulness, of kindness, than ever be fore in the history of the world. We hear much about the dishonesty life, but as a matter of our political of fact there is greater honesty and truth in politics today than' in the past. is more of outcry against dishonesty, more of horror at wrongdoing, and this very fact demonstrates a higher standard of living among the people. T h e re Y et to carry on this work strong, earnest manhood and womanhood are needed. Thoughtful, patient, trusting educated men are needed, and one leader of this kind is worth a hun dred leaders on the battlefield. O ur great safety lies in the thoughtful handling of great questions, which is such a prominent feature of our life like today. We need men Washington, men who do not strive after Utopian projects but are satis fied to take the step that is possible today, tomorrow for to another and farther step. Men of this kind of sanity and men of that form of honesty which enables one to decide for the state and for another just as he would for him self will always be needed. T he best lesson to learn from Washing ton's life is the lesson of self-renun ciation, to stand for the other man. This is true Americanism. This is the character of George Washing ton. T he next speaker was Represen tative Dingley, chairman of the ways and means committee of the lower house of the present legisla ture. Mr. Dingley began by describing the innumerable reminders of Wash ington, especially the great monu ment in the city of Washington. This he regarded as peculiarly typi cal of Washington—the great finger of stone pointing upward and visible from every side—the cornerstone laid in the fifties, the capstone placed in the eighties, symbolizing the slow character. growth of the man's East of the capitol is a statue of him who was " F i r st in war, first in peace and first in the hearts of his In the rotunda of countrymen." the capitol is Trumbull's famous painting, " T he surrender of Lord Cornwallis," and there again in the foreground figure. In the White House is his mam moth portrait. D o wn the Potomac is the home of the great man and his tomb, with the inscription above — "I am the resurrection and the life." T he capitol itself is his en during monument. is the majestic the Washington was typical American c i t i z en — God-fearing, sublime patriotic, patient, full of today he hope. Were he alive would look forward with the same hope. T h ey tell us we are depart ing from the doctrine of the Fare well Addresses. This is a sublime like it has document; none other ever existed. But it was not in tended as an anchor to hold us for ever in one place, but as a compass to guide us ever forward. Wash ington could not foresee the tre mendous growth we have made. England boasts that the sun never sets on her possessions; we can say that his last rays never forsake the stars and stripes. England's morn ing drumbeat the sunrise around the world. T he American morning school-bell calls the boy and girl to his tasks during every twenty-four. Y e t, the hour of though we have grown to such colossal dimensions our nation and our character are still actuated by the same old principles of the fare well address. follows T he best inspiration that can come to you and to me is the desire for character such as George Washing ton represents. It is the silent forces of nature that are the most power ful. T he thunder is terrific, but the silent force of gravitation keeps the worlds in their courses. Of this char acter of Washington the greatest feature is steadfastness. Have a purpose and stick to it. In this age of the specialist only he w ho keeps one definite purpose in mind can succeed. T he world is not growing worse, but growing better. A stead fast purpose animates the men w ho are now controling our public affairs, and there will come a time when the very men w ho now denounce cer tain things, will confess their error and applaud the results. W i th the steadfastness that Wash ington's character teaches you must stand by your country, and carve for yourself a career that shall make for the best humanity. interests of Carved out of the solid rock stands Thorwaldsen's great lion commem orative of the Swiss guard in the Revolution. So out of the solid rock of life, let each carve for himself a character typical of all that is stead fast, noble, and grand. Mr. Dingley closed by quoting those magnificent lines of Longfel low ending the "Building of the S h i p ," T he speaking was interspersed with music from the College band, with a song by the chorus class, and with a finely rendered instru mental selection by Miss H a n n ah Bach.

Eliot, Pres ident of Harvard Uni versity. T he general conclusion is that a boy of eighteen who has had a good training up to that age will ordinar ily use the elective system wisely, and that the boy w ho has had an imperfect or poor training up to eighteen years is more likely to ac complish something worth while under an elective system than under any other. A student in arts and sciences, if he knows what his future profession is to be, may wisely choose his studies with reference to that pro fession; but to that end free election is what he needs and not inflexible groups. A prudent student in arts and sciences w ho does not know what his profession is to be will choose his studies from among those which give him pleasure and in which he has capacity to excel; be cause it should be somewhere these fields future calling.

Harvard has a total attendance that of any college or exceeding university in this country — over 5000; of whom about 2000 are in the department of science, literature and the arts. In this department very nearly all studies are elective. In 1S99-1900 the entire class roll for chemistry was 711, for physics 366, for zoology 278, for botany 2 0 0. " D u r i ng last summer it was de termined that Dr. Marshall H. Bailey should give at the opening of the current year a short course of lectures on the physiological evils to which the students may be exposed, and on the means of preventing injury to health by excess in eating, drinking, taking exercise, or work ing, or by eating or drinking too little, sleeping too little, and taking no exercise.

According to Dr. Beal, Pres.
