 history of the college. The endowments
 of the institution have besn great
 ly increased, fine buildings have
 multiplied, additional courses have | be,n opened in many departments,
 and the faculty has been enlarg d and
 strengthened. These external evidences | of growth are not, however, the highes, | fruits of Dr. Cartel's eerv1ce; these ara tc

 thoroughness of method, and the genuine | spirit of scholarship which he has steadily | lOSlSIGU. NO Ildu ctCI UlJukub IO 6uo1 .
