grand of things is of the same nature as we
are, when our nature is measured by our ideal
qualities; that is, by intelligence and BY con-
science.
The applause which followed the essay
of Miss FELTON, was almost deafening be-
cause she had been declared by the Board
of Regents in the morning to be the most
distinguished scholar in the class, and
hence entitled to the gold medal.
Every one knew that Miss FELTON, had
won the medal, but few knew that she had
called upon the president after it had
been officially announced that it was to be
presented TO her, and declined to accept it.
In making known the fact that Miss
FELTON, had refused the prize President
Kellogg said: 1.-THE lady. to whom the
faculty and the Board Of Regents have
awarded the medal declines it with thanks
and does not even wish to have her name
mentioned"
The reason why she did not accept the
medal is because she does not approve of
the method of using an extrinsic motive
to stimulate student In the progress of
his university work.
President kellogg reviewed the work of
the year, showing that much progress had
been made during that time. He said that
the attendance at the university is 81 per
| cent greater now than at this time last
! year, and the number OF instructors has
been increased by Is per cent. The courses
offered are n per cent wider in scope, and
| two instructors one of whom is DR.. Jacob
| Voorsanger, have been giving their SER
vices gratuitously.
| AT the present. time there are nearly
I 1900 students in the university. He told
! told of the crying need for more room and
better facilities, and after reviewing the
numerous munifcent gifts to the univers-
!! ityr appealed for still more assistance.
| 1t was his hope to some day to see the
!. University of California the foremost of
| American educational institutions.
