einial literary work. We remember.

n known 10 Latin ard Greek scholars
IN Eurono by hts work on Greek pre-
nositions' and by his exposition OF some
M tho laws OF the Latin language. Pro-
fessor Gildersleeve made II known by his
Creek grammar and his editions Of Greek
authors: Courtenay by his "Calnlus'; Bled-
soc nv his ''Theodicy" and his Liberty
and Slavery: Schele de We're. by his nu-
merous works on philology, and McGuf-
few. bv his series OF school readers, and
Ali OF them by their contributions TO the
periodicals OF the day. and the alumni
OF the university have hoped and expect
ed that the younger men who have taken
tho njaces of those who have gone would
have striyen to keep lighted the torch
which hid been committed TO their
hands"
