Here wa provide an art-elective in the junior and senior years of the un- dergraduate college course, so that while in college a certain elementary practice and acquaintance with art may be acquired by the student propos- ing to follow art as profession, which will enable him to become a profession al student on his graduation, already familiar with at least the clements of first principles. And it so happens that this year two of the selected competi- tors for the Winchester fellowship for study abroad, as supplementary to the course provided in this Art school, are college graduates. There is an advan- tage in this that is only offset by that exceptional talent which assumes for it. self the severest disciplinary tasks from it's own instinctive energy and aim. The inclusion of the fine arts among the other professional schools in the university may have, therefore deep significance for the future, and certain ly the marked activity in this direction now apparent in all the great univer- sities, both here and abroad, is sugges- tive. I think it is significant. The lhigher results will be worked out gradually, as they are now being 1 worked out here.
 I Instruction has been given in this art school during the year to 397 students, classified as follows: 35 professional students, $50 students from other de- partments of the university, and twelve Ic+,1dap+c i,, +1,n nxyay,ipo, oIocr To thaca might be added a considerable number of undergraduates who attended the lcourses of lectures.
 The exhibition of the work of the reg ular students of the school may be seen in the class-rooms on the first floor in cluding the work of the four competi- tors for the Winchester fellowship. These exhibits will be found to main tain standard of work that is based on the academic system as modified by methods of instruction which recognize the value of individualism as soon as the student is grounded in the clements of first principles, the merit of which system has hitherto been conspicuous in. this art school.
 The gifts to the school received dur ing the year have been as follows: From MT Henry F. English, to be add ed to his previous gifts establishing the Alice Kimball English fund. two thou sand dollars to endow scholarship. From Mrs Sarah Alden Derby, of New York, as previously announced, but re- ceived during the year, an original col- ored cartoon by Correggio, fifty-two by eighty -four inches in size, every i'm lportant and valuable addition to the collection of Italian art.

 ] President Hadley introduced MT. Frank D. Millet, who gave the anni- versary address on "The Conditions and Tendencies of American Art" At the conclusion of the address Professor Weir explained the purpose of the Win chester fellowship and the nature of the competition for this large prize, ad- dressing a few words to the four compe- ttitors, and closing his remarks by read ling the instructions given the jury of award, which were as follows "The 1 work of the competitors, lettered re- lspectively A, B, c and D, comprising lstudies made in the various depart ments of instruction in the school, or in the field, shall be judged with reference to the whole series, and not on any Sl0Sle competitive COlllpO5lltoH diollc.
