OPENING OF THE UNIVERSITY.


Large Body of students Present at the
First Session.
The college chapel was well filled at the

dent Buckham. Professors Torrev. Emerson.
Goodrich, Barber. Kitchn and Tutherlv oc-
cupied the platform, and a freshman class
of 90 occupied the seats left vacant bv 90
\ noticeable feature of the asseinblage
was the increased number of Young ladies
now occupying the three front rows and
part of fourth After the usual service
President Buckham gave short address
to the students, during which he
explained that the delay in cree
ton of the new buildings was owing to
the financial stringency of the time, but
that they would yet be erected The sub
lect of cane PUSHES was touched upon. and
after referring to the misunderstanding q
on the part of the sophomore and freshman
classes, by which;one occurred last fall. he
announced tnat the cane rush. in any form.
was henceforth and for all time abolished in
this university. In relation to the depart
ment of military science it was announced
that the government would hereafter de
mand more thorough work on the part of
colleges having a military instructor. and
that all four classes would hereafter be in
cluded in the battalion. At mention of
Capt. II. +. Tutherly name as the new
professor of military tactics IA long round of
applause burst forth from the students. In
closing the president said that he never met
| the students at an open session without feel
ing anew that liberal education was the
| greatest opportunity that life affords to n
| young man or woman, and that with the
opportunity comes IA great responsibility ON
| the part of the student to improve to the ut
| most the time which society has given him
| for study.
The records at the secretarys office re
| vealed the fact that there are to be ~ mem
| beers of the freshman class including II az
ricutural students. This is the largest class
| i'll the history of the institution and is a
| speaking commentary upon the growing
popularity of the L. V. NJ. While most of
| the new students come from Vermont, no in
considerable number have come from Masstt-
chusetts New Hampshire and New York.
There are also six students from other insti-
buttons to join the upper classes.
The college stands in "A crying need of a
new chapel, more and larger recitation
rooms, and an increased teaching force. In
| the logic of events these must come with the
| demand for them.
| The new class brings to the college good
| contribution of musical and athletic talent
so that no deterioration need be looked fol
in the glee club or base ball team.

discussing the peculiar features. Of
individual cases, so. that they may
be ready to apply the result OF their
deliberations in the consulting room.
This is the whole secret of their
success.
With them the science of medicine
is a constant growth. and every case
special study. Not point that
has any possible bearing on the ease
in hand is overlooked. This is the
reason that they succeed where Others
fail.
