The hitting of the Boise team was

Among the many interesting

made by the trustees, who are Ed
ward D Adams, Nicholas Murray
Butler, Charles w. Eliot, Henry
Fairfield Osborn and Charles D.
Walcott, and they are to choose
preferably professors in isolated
sOuther and western institutions.
The reason for this limitation is that
the men of the larger cities have
ample opportunity because of their
residence for coming into contact
with the larger things of the world,
and are much better equipped for
advancement 1t is known that in
the smaller institutions of learning
there are men Of advanced thought.
Of great capabilities and fine intel
feet, who have no opportunity to
come into contact with the great
world and are therefore wasted.
They are occasionally heard from in
the world Of art or letters, but new
FER succeed in rising above their sur
Foundlngs. 1t is to remedy this
that the foundation has been estab-
ashed.
