These courses taken in connection with
the work Of colonial administra ton in
the political and science department,
indicate the keen interest President
Hadley feels in the problem of colo
nial service and recalls his words be-
fore the Washington, D. c., Yale alumni
q week ago:
"The inspiration furnished by having
a Yale man at the head of the forestry
department of the government Is on
the very point Of being realized by the
establishment of forest school at
Yale which will be more liberaly en-
dowed in proportion than any other
department of the university I hope
now--though / do not see the endow-
ment--that the inspiration of having a
Yale man at the head of the Philippine
commission will, in due time, lead to
the similar development Of, first, the
idea, and then the endowment, for if
you really have the idea, money fol-
1ows-into an endowment of a depart
ment of colonial government
The return of DR.. Gustav Andreen
from Germany next year will be mark
ed by the addition of noteworthy
courses in the modern language de-
partment They include elective in
