We love the institution to which we

We love the institution to which we
have given these years of service. We
have guarded its fair name with jeal-
GUS care We sought to give it an in
tegrity that would place it above ma
lice and beyond the reach Of prejudice.
We sought to lay foundation SO
strong and deep that Mo apprehension
need be felt for it's future. 1t is not
for us to speak of the merits of the
work of our hands. You must know
what are the standards of excellence
for educational institutions Of today
and by through and patient comparison
render your final judgment on the work
of this faculty.
Deeply conscious of the dignity and
honor of the position have occupied,
and of the opportunity it has afforded
for useful service, also must admit
a certain feeling of relief on being
freed from the anxieties and respon-
sibilities of the office and of satisfac-
ton at being in position to view the
work of this noble institution in the
capacity Of a private citizen.
On behalf of the retiring faculty
wish to bear testimony to the delight
full days we have spent in laying its
foundations. We believe in it's muture.
We devoutly trust that all its work
may be established in righteousness:
That the men who serve it as regents
may be strong in civic virtue. in JUS
tice, in kindness, and in selfsacrifice.
That those who teach in its chairs
may be lovers of truth, possessed Of
courage and skill; may be patterns OF
noble manhod and womanhood; true
to the highest ideals of their great
calling; leaders of the moral and spir-
itual forces of our community. That
hosts of students may go out from 1t
with clean minds, clean hands and
pure hearts. to the service Of the ma
ton and the honor of their state And
we who first opened its doors will ever
pray that peace may be within its
walls. that the light Of truth may IL
Illuminate its way; that songs of
brotherhood may fill its halls, and
that it may be ever guided by the
grace Of Him in whom are all the
springs of wisdom, power and love.

MRS. GARDNER OBJECTS.
City OF Boston Plans for Sewerage Pump.
Ing Plant Near Her Home.

BosToN, May 24.-NIrs. Jack Gardner
has yet another grievance against Boston.
Yesterday it was the lack Of police pro-
lection for her Back Bay palace. To-day
it is the announcement that the city pro-
poses TO establish a sewerage pumping
plant within 900 feet of the structure.
Mrs. Gardner believes that the smoke
from the chimney will blacken her walls,
and also that all kinds of uncanny odors
will render the place uninhabitable. The
plant which is contemplated by the Metro
politan Sewerage Commission will be an
eyesore, in any event, and that part of
the Back Bay is raising its voice In a chorus
Of protest that may cause a change in the
Commissioners plans or recourse to the
courts.
