In Memory of Prof. Luquiens.
The Modern Language Club held a
meeting in memory of the late Professor
Luquiens at Room E1, Osborn Hall, Sat-
urday evening, October 27. The room
was the old recitation room of Profes-
sor Luquiens, and was filled with mem-
bers of the Modern Language Club and
others, including a number from the
Classical Club.
Professor Robert N. Corwin, Presi-
dent of the Modern Language Club,
opened the meeting by calling President
Hadley to the chair as honorary chair-
man. Short addresses were then made
by Mr. Taylor, Prof. Lang. Prof. Pal-
mer, Mr. Bragdon, of Auburndale, a
personal friend of Prof. Luquiens, Mr.
Nettleton of the Yale English Depart-
ment and Prof. Perrin. Prof. Cook
was to have spoken, but he was pre-
vented from attending by the illness of
a child. A short paper, which he had
prepared, was read by Prof. Gruener.
After these had spoken, President Had-
ley spoke briefly. He commented on the
simplicity and the sincerity of the very
feeling tributes which had been offered
as very appropriate to the memory of
the man in whom these traits were so
noticeable. The general tone of these
different short addresses was indicated
in the following minute, proposed on be-
half of the Executive Committee by Mr.
Taylor and adopted by rising vote:
In the death of Prof Luquiens we
mourn the loss of a colleague whose
noble life and scholastic attainments
have won for him a place of honor in
the favor and esteem of this community.
Born and reared in Europe, he rose to
eminence as a teacher in the country of
his adoption. In literary matters, en-
dowed with taste and judgment of rare
excellence, he won the good will of his
students and gave zest to the study of
French literature in Yale University.
Mindful of those who feel his loss most
keenly, we tender to his wife and
children our sincere sympathy.

A “Practical Joke” by a
Classmate.
To the Editor of YALE ALUMNI WEEKLY:
Dear Sir:—The announcement of the
engagement of H. M. Bissell, ’99, pub-
lished in the WEEKLY some time ago
was incorrect. It was a “practical joke”
by a member of the Class. I took it in
good faith and gave it to Mr. Carpenter.
The error was no fault of his. No one
regrets such an error more than myself
and I would do much to eliminate the
chances did I but know a way to do so.
Yours,
Donacp R. HooKker,
