LEARNED BRIDE OF 4
HONOLULU SCIENTIST

Buffalo Courier.-Throngs of friends
of Dr. Elizabeth j. Letson, whose mar
riage to William Alanson Bryan takes
place this morning in st. Paul's Cathe-
dral, had the opportunity of bidding
her goodbye at a reception which the
Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences
gave in her honor yesterday afternoon
from four until six o'clock in the So
eiety's rooms, Buffalo Public Library.
building.
Palms and gift flowers sent to the
popular guest of honor made the large
assembly room attractive and Ragone
played the harp during the reception
hours.
The receiving line included DR.. Lee
Fl. Smith, Howard H. Baker, r. R. Hef-
ford, Carlton R. Perrine, Ottoman
Reinicke and Frederic Houghton of the
board of managers of the society: Lars
G. Sellstedt, the only living charter
members of the society, DR.. Letson and
Mr.. Bryan.
DR.. Letson was charming in gown
of pale blue marquisette with trimmings
of pale blue satin and lace, with a neck
lace of turquoise, diamonds and gold.
She wore a black lace hat with plumes
and carried a large bouquet of pink
roses.
DIR. Carlos E. Cummings, Ralph Sid
wav and Herbert Smith acted as ushers,
and Miss Grace Lockwood and Miss
Florence Tally presented guests to the
receiving line.
At a daintily appointed tea table
Mrs Esther C. Davenport presided, and
punch was served at another table
adorned with white chrysanthemums.
A feature of the afternoon was the
presentation to Dr. Letson of purse
of gold by the Buffalo Society of Nat
ural Sciences in appreciation of her val
uable services as director of the mu-
scum. In the presentation speech made
bv DR.. Lee H. Smith, he emphasized the
services of DR.. Letson. whose loss was
the greatest the society had ever expert
enced. and said that the society's only
conversation for II lay in the assur-
ance of the happy future which awaited
DR.. Letson He said that the society
had had struck off about sixty medals
hv the United States mint, and these
he handed to her in a purse of gold,
saving that there were still more TO be
given her that could not be contained
in the purse.
1t was splendid speech and fully
voiced the feelings of those who have
known DIR. Letson : excellent work in
behalf of the society and who appre-
eiated the fine spirit of cooperation
which has existed between the retiring
director and her ~superiors.
Preceding the society's presentation.
Mrs. John Miller Horton. regent of
Buffalo Chapter. National Society.
Daughters of the American Revolu-
ton. presented 10 DIR. LeTson on behalf
of the society a beautiful silk flag in
appreciation of her services as chair
man of the patriotic lecture commit
tee of the chapter.
Mrs. Horton spoke in most appreeia-

and ability in preparing these lectures

with success before foreign-born resi-
dents of Buffalo, and paid tribute to
the uprightness and popularity of DIR.
Letson. Concluding, Mrs. Horton pre-
sented as her personal gift as regent
of the chapter a beautiful string of
gold beads. DR.. Letson responded
briefly and gracefully.
The Buffalo Society of Natural Sci
enees also presented DIR. Letson a
handsomely set of resolu-
lions expressing their appreciation of
her work and making her honorary di-
rector for life.
At ) O'Clock a charming musical
program was given, adding much to
the pleasure of the afternoon. Miss
Hazel Diekman, soprano, sang Mig

Nav. Love" by De Koven, and ''The
VOYAGE by Gottschalk. her clear and
sweet tones and lovely presence find
ing favor at once with her hearers.
John J. Ball sang with fine expression

berta Sehlageter, violinist, played with
beautiful effect ssThe Cygne.' by
Saint Saens. and ''The Serenade,' by
Pierne. Miss Hedwig Schrey played
the accompaniments.
Altogether the occasion was de-
lightful one which will long be remem-
bered by the friends of Dir. Letson,
who has made an enviable place for
herself in Buffalo's world of affairs,
and who win regret her departure from
the city.

Last year stamp was designed by
Howard Pyle. The ground is white,
the lettering and cross are in red and
a holly wreath in green eneircles the
cross and the words Merry Christ
mas. 1t is not very beautiful and
perhaps some Honolulu artist can i'm
prove upon it. Please try, all of you.
The money from Christmas stamps is
used in the fight against tuberculosis;
and the proceeds of sales are applied
in aid of this work in the localities
where the stamps are sold.

Enrolment Statistics of Twenty-Five Institutions Shop
Fen Cases of Decreased Attendance

Registration at most Of the higher in
stitutiOns OF learning has reached the
point where accurate attendance statistics
may be compiled. and where It IS pos
sible to make comparisons with last years
enrichment
Such comparisons between different in
situations, especially between universities
with a considerable number Of faculties,
are from the very nature OF the case apt
10 be misleading. inasmuch as there is a
wide discrepancy between standards CT
admission and advancement. character Of
work carried on, equipment, &c, which is
not considered in figures Of attendance.
Il may be OF interest, nevertheless. TO
observe not only the changes in enroll
ment that have taken place since last
year at different institutions, but also the
fluctuations in attendance on different
faculties. says Rudolph Tombo in the
New York Post.
Taking the first twenty-five represent
alive Universities-nOt necessarily the
twenty-five largest nor the twenty-five
leading universities, we find that they
rank this year as follows, the summer

stance. and due allowance being made
for summer students who returned for
work this fan.
