Reply Of President Taft.

President Taft, in his reply. expressed
his earnest wish that there should be be-
tween the United States and Mexico the
best and closest relations, and that their
intercourse should be inspired and guided
by neighborly regard and by a desire to
promote those interests which the two
countries, by reason OF their propinQutty,
necessarily have in common.
1.-The government Of the United States .
said the President, cannot but take a
great interest in the tranquility and prog
ress of Mexico. Within her confines a
large number OF American citizens have
established their homes, and in the devel-
opment of her resources a vast amount of
American capital has been invested. 1t is
to me a source of great regret that that
tranquility and progress should be dis
turbed by state of unrest and internal
dissension. 1t is my earnest hope that
this cloud may soon pass away and that
the people of Mexico. united in spirit and
purpose, taking advantage Of the greet
opportunities that lie before them, will
go forward to that great development and
prosperity which Providence has destined
for Them"

for the establishment of a national uni
versity, reported progress. Chairman

opportunity to examine the proposed leg

Training In Expression.

within this group Of studies also there
should be some provision for training
in the accurate and facile mode of CIV
ing expression to knowledge. Certainly
the educated man should be able to un-
derstand his own language with some
appreciation of its power and beauty. be
able also to speak 1t as to the manner
born, and not as barbarian, and to ex-
press himself by the written word in
such q manner as to reveal and not OBJ
scure his thought and feeling.
AT this early stage there should be
also some instruction in the beginnings
extent Of leading the student to under
stand the workings of his own mind and
the laws which govern the processes of
reason. After this early period OF re-
quired studies the liberty which is born
of discipline can be wisely encouraged
to manifest itself in the free choice OF
subjects for the remaining years of the
university course. Here again We be-
lieye that there rests upon the teaching
body a peculiar obligation to prevent an
uninteiIigent and inIliscriminate choice of
studies
''The university is not specifically de-
signed for the purpose of fitting q man
directly for the daily duties of his future
work In life. 1t should attempt to devel-
on the whole man. No faculty Of the
mind can be satisfactorily trained in iso-
Iation. There must be a symmetrical
growth of all faculties. The high poten-
tial Of stored energy, moreover, acquired
in the process of a fully rounded devel-
opment of all a mans powers lends an
increased momentum and driving force to
the particular activities of his speciality,
and thus allows many lines Of capability
to meet in one point of practical efficiency.

President Hibben's Address.

President Hibben spoke to the topic:
"The Essentials Of Liberal Education"
His address, in part, follows:
I'VE hear much today Of the con-
servatiOn of our national resources.
our forests, the treasures of our mines
and the vast material wealth OF our
land. But while we are emphasizing
the necessity of a national economy.
We should not overlook the fact that

ton is the one supreme task. To con-
serve these powers, to cause them to
develop and to prevail. to deliver free

for the teacher, and particularly for
that body Of students which viii best
produce spirit of devotion to the
cause Of knowledge and Of JOY in its
service. To this doctrine. however.
there are many who would enter a
most emphatic dissent They very
stoutly insist that there should be no
body of required studies whatsoever in
a university. but that each student
should follow his own free choice in
selecting the particular subjects he may
be pleased to pursue.
Belief at Princeton.
I'm Princeton we believe that it is alb
solutely necessary to have a certain
schooling in preparation for the RESPONSE
bilities of freedom; and that the hit and
miss choice OF an immature mind in new
and strange surroundings forms a poor
groundwork to the serious tasks Of free
investigation of original thought and Of
practical efficiency. We believe, more
over, that the best preparation for the
freedom Of the life of reason is that
group Of studies whose very nature tends
to the training of the powers Of the
mind. developing In man both capability
and resource. and at the same time giving
him a knowledge of himself and of the
world in which he lives.
He must be so led in the way Of knoWl-
edge that he will come to know something
Of the human world in which he lives,
something also Of the world Of the past.

ners, morals and inStitutionS-in q word
he must know the thought Of the world
which possesses universal meaning and
universal significance.
Not only the human world but also
the world Of nature must be a part OF
this general body OF knowledge. In these
first stages of education the study OF
science should form a very central and
essential part OF this prescribed course
of study.
