 Scribner's Magazine for March begins another of it's important features for the current year-the reminiscence of Daniel c. Gilman who for twenty five years was president of John Hopkins university President Gilman created new type of university in America, and one which has proved its success oy the great number of scholars and dlstln- guished men which it has already pro duced by it's exact methods of study. "The Launching of University tells inc story of the conception of the idea, and the first steps in gathering togetfi- or the remarkable group of professors who at the very start gave the uniVef- sty prestige among men or learning' President Gilman has an unusual gift for telling an incident with humor and directness This first paper is filled with good stories of such men as Hux- lev George Peabody Rowland, the great scientist. Sylvester, etc. Two more papers will continue, in this most entertaining manner to describe the growth of the university idea, and the connection of great men with it--some- thing that has not been done in recent times.
