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.. Lows:

THE STAY IN ST. LOUIS.
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.
