PROFESSOR PARKER'S IDEA. “IT know of nothing which better il- lustrates the theory underlying technical education than the success that has at- tended Professor Parker’s musical de- partment during the last year. He seems to be the right man for making a department of music. ‘There is, he said, ‘one instrument which is necessary for making a department of music’; ‘And that,’ said a friend with whom he was conversing, ‘I suppose, is a piano.’ “That instrument,’ said Professor Par- - ker, ‘is a blackboard,’ ”’ THE GREAT ESSENTIAL. “The longer we grow, the more mani- fold our condition, the more is it neces- sary to have throughout the country a greater Yale sentiment and Yale spirit. Yale needs these men more than any other institution, and she needs this Yale spirit and influence because she is not identified with any section, with any creed, or with any class in society. She needs, therefore, the support of her men all over the country who shall inform the people what Yale is, not only in college life, but in the years that we live afterwards. The Yale sentiment must be exemplified by the graduates of Ninety-Nine, like my friend, Mr. Brookings here at my right; and by the graduates of Forty, as by my friend Mr. Parsons on my left. “With such a body of men, with the giving of their love, and with the giv- ing of -their interest, and with keeping alive through the length and breadth of ihe land the memory of the time when they were students at Yale, themselves being an exemplification of the things learned at Yale, I can well say that Yale will remain in her third, fourth and fifth centuries what she has been in her first and second, the center of American, democratic, Christian ideals.” OTHER ADDRESSES. After President Hadley’s address there followed a series of interesting talks commemorative of the past Presidents of Yale. President Day was represented by Mr. Henry Hitchcock, ’48; President Woolsey, by Judge Elmer B. Adams, 65, of the United States District Court; President Porter, by Judge Selden P. Spencer, 84, of the St. Louis Circuit Court, and President Dwight by Mr. Harry B. Wallace of ’g9. These regular toasts were followed by short addresses. The first was by President Robert S. Brookings, of. the Board of Trustees of Washington Uni- versity, who received the honorary de- gree of A.M. at the last Commence- ment in recognition of his services in placing that institution upon a sound financial foundation, and of his enthusi- actic encouragement of higher education in St. Louis. General Lewis B. Par- sons, *40, who is in his eighty-second year, followed with an earnest and en- thusiastic Yale speech endorsing the new President. Mr. C. S. Wiley, ’85, fol- lowed with an enlivening and humorous speech and closed the largest and most enthusiastic Yale gathering ever held in ot..

President and Mrs. Hadley were the guests in St. Louis of Mr. F. N. Judson of the Class of 1866, President of the Association. They spent Sunday quietly, resting from their fatiguing trip. On Monday, the 15th, President Hadley visited the famous Cupples Station, where the transportation problems of St. Louis have been solved in a very uniqtie manner, and was conducted over the warehouses and the Simmons Hard- ware Company buildings. He was en- tertained at lunch that day by Mr. Brookings, where he met a number of the Trustees of Washington University, and other gentlemen. In the evening a reception was given by Mr. and Mrs. Judson to President and Mrs. Hadley and to the Yale men of St. Louis and their families. About three hundred invitations were issued. President and Mrs. Hadley left on Tuesday morning for Louisville. ——__-—__ $04 ‘St. Louis Association Officers.
